    Pastry and hot beverage

    Yep this is the right spot and I love the food We went here on Christmas Day ! Ambiance is a "Grab and Go" place Service was fast clean and kind people !!!

    Boston Creme donut lacked custard.  3 stars

    Cool little donut shop in San Leandro. Stopped for a quick snack to satisfy my sweet tooth after visiting the dentist. Hey, I had NO cavities so I deserved the treat!! Bought a Boston Creme donut. The custard to donut ratio was lacking. Took a few bites before I finally bit into some custard. Always disappointing when they lack custard. Boston Creme donuts are my all-time favorite kind of donut! Service was good, and the shop appeared pretty clean. I'd give them another try.

    Breakfast sandwich w/ hot chocolate!

    It was early in the morning, on the road again, my bf and I were in the mood for some hot chocolate!! Since it was really cold out and needed something to heat us up! I think I got my bf into drinking hot chocolate rather than his coffee lol. He loves hot chocolate as much as I do now! I ordered myself hot chocolate to see if they had good hot chocolate. My bf ordered a ham and Swiss croissant which he liked. I ordered myself a donut since I'm not really a breakfast person like my bf. The hot chocolate was good nothing really that stands out to me really but I still enjoyed my drink! Definitely will come by whenever I'm close by and need me some hot chocolate to warm me up!

    I got a bagel sandwich with bacon, cheese and egg. It was pretty blah and not very flavorful. But the employees were friendly.

    It's hard not to notice the popularity of this donut and breakfast sandwich shop when a fire truck stops in for a donut run. Open at 0400 am during the weekdays, it's convenient for us late night workers or those early morning commuters. Friendly staff with a good variety of fresh made donuts and huge breakfast croissants stuffed with meats of your choosing, eggs and cheese. I got my fill and sweet tooth fix for the day! Bookmarking this early open donut shop for my need to feed moments at 0400 am!

    This is a small deli shop in Davis St. We discovered this one while looking for another sandwich shop. They offer donuts, sandwiches, croissants, coffee - typical deli place. We arrived around 11ish, they were almost done with their morning business. We were helped by Sofia that day. Stopped there to get the sandwich - they ran out of grilled chicken, so had to settle for a veggie sandwich. She was quite fast, asked me the type of bread for sandwich and made the sandwich in no time. There was fine collection of donuts on display. Very tempting to be honest. The donuts were glazed to perfection that we couldn't resist buying half a dozen of them. She packed the donuts in a typical deli fashion. I payed using apple pay. Looks like they charge additional fee for the credit card payments. The sandwiches were great. Nothing fancy about it, but it turned out to be delicious. Toasted well, filled with the veggies and avocados. Donuts were amazing too. Best part was they were not very sweet. Picked up 3 different varieties and they all turned out to be really good. This place is like a hidden gem. Small but really worth the attention. The service is also really good. It's part of a small shopping strip. So parking is limited. Other than it, everything is good about this place.

    Glazed chocolate bar

    I live only about a mile from this store after living in San Leandro for 20 years now I never actually tried their donut. I tell you this morning was the best decision: my $1.65 chocolate bar was probably the best one I've had so far. It perfectly coated and the bread is rich and not airy. Prices are reasonable compared to other hole in the wall spots. It is only 7am and I'm full. I will definitely get my next few donuts here. I'll be a regular customer.

    Custard filled & jelly filled donuts

    Their donuts are massive compared to other donut shops ! I love how they slice their donuts in half to make sure you have a good amount of fillings ! High recommend coming here the staff were all super nice and sometimes they give you extra donut holes !

    My 2 dozen donuts
    Shelly S.

    This is the second time I have been here as well and as far as donuts go, they are your typical place. However what I did like is that they accepted a wide variety of credit cards! I use amex for most of my business travel and most donut places won't accept it. Another thing I really loved is the wide variety of breakfast sandwiches that they had! I totally got a Ham, Egg, Cheese, Sausage croissant; and this puppy was huge! Definitely enough to feed two people!

I knew this donut shop was here but had never been before. It was on my way back to the firegrounds, so I stopped in. The shop is not huge and there weren't a lot of donuts on display. I felt kind of bad that I was wiping out most of what was on display. I ordered one dozen each of four donuts, glazed, chocolate covered, and two others. I would have mixed in some crullers and old fashioned but there didn't appear to be any. Personally, my favorite is an Apple Fritter. None of those on display either. The woman who helped me was very friendly and gave me some donut holes on the house. I gave those to a Deputy Sheriff who was working the outer perimeter of the incident. As to how the donuts tasted, I don't know. Some of us need to watch our sugar consumption. I heard no complaints so I'm guessing everything was okay. I apologize for the lack of photos. As soon as I got back to the scene, coffee was poured and donuts consumed!

We were pleasantly surprised with the apple fritter and scarfed it down. The texture was perfect and had such great bite to it. The sweetness level was also perfect, which is why I could not put it down. Given how big these things are, we normally eat half and eat the rest later so that we don't hate ourselves from indulging but this fritter didn't feel overly unhealthy. We were joking saying how we should have bought two! The blueberry cake donut was not to our liking. Ironically, we like our "cake" donuts to not be too cakey or bready, but it was exactly that. We do prefer it to be a bit more deep fried haha. Would definitely go back for the apple fritter!

    Service was quick, friendly and efficient. We were in just to grab a snack. We ended up with an…read moreApple Fritter, Blueberry Donut and two Donut Holes (comped). We haven't tried the others yet, but the Apple Fritter was terrific. Crispy on the outside, soft and moist on the inside with the flavor of apples and cinnamon. This had to have been one of the best Apple Fritters we've had in a long time. Sometimes, you don't get apple; sometimes the cake isn't cooked enough because it's too thick; other times, they're just sickly sweet. Not here. Their Apple Fritter was simply perfect!

We saw a street parking as soon as we turn, and just parked even though it was 1000 ft away. The drink/cocktail list is vast, but we are not much of a cocktail drinker and not usually drink during lunch, but I saw Matcha Sharka being ordered a lot and the other seemingly popular drink was this lavender drink. If you are a cocktail drinker during lunch, do check them out. We ordered 4 shareable items: * Savoy Donuts - 5 stars - fluffy and yummy, not greasy at all * Focaccia w/ Meyer Lemon and Garlic Confit - 4.5 stars - wonderful texture, did not taste the garlic much but the lemon was really good add. * Grilled Beef and Pork Chipolata - 4 stars - I think the star was the dressing. The meat itself was just okay. * Rice Vermicelli Bowl - 4.5 stars - not sure why it is called a bowl when it was served more in a plate. This is the fusion take on the Vietnamese dish with different dressing. We selected the Galangal Pork, which I did not like as much compared to the usual Vietnamese ones with Lemon Grass. There is a choice to select Lemongrass chicken instead, so you might want to try that. The pork tasted "porky" despite it was thinly cut. I was hoping to try dessert, but we were full so we did not do that. Next time. The restaurant is nicely set, and you can select indoor or outdoor seating. We did make a reservation, but when we arrived there were plenty of tables available. Service was fine, we did not get the "is this your first time" greeting as I heard other tables got. But it was our first time.

I'd love to come back to try more seasonal specials.

Honestly probably one of the top 10 unique mocha's I have tried and it was delicious! I loved the burst of refreshing orange that complimented the chocolate. The flavors danced on my tastebuds like two separate flavors that blended together as one. Each holding their own note that added value to the drink making it unique. I was instantly impressed and wish I found this on more menus! A classic mocha with a refreshing twist of orange was a pleasant surprise! I'm so glad I stopped in for a pick me up!
