This small donut shop is lowkey a sleeper place in Santa Ana for a banana pudding matcha. My friend told me about it, and I decided to go and try it. Plenty of parking and the lady working was really nice! Drinks were pretty quick to make too! The star of the show for this visit was a banana pudding matcha, and it was solid! I think the only problem is there's banana extrait or syrup at the bottom, and it makes it reeeeally sweet. I love my sweet matchas, but this was a bit much. However, I honestly think that after the ice melts and waters it down, it becomes a pretty above average balance of banana pudding, sweetness, and matcha. Really surprising for a donut shop in my opinion, and I'd recommend it! They have strawberry and cloud matchas too if you want to try those! read more

Postmated a ham and cheese croissant. And it got here very dry. Hard. Ham was also rolled up in the middle. Not spread out. 6/10 The house iced coffee got me thru work running on 4 hours of sleep. It works! 10/10 Also got a chocolate croissant that I reheated and that was really good also. 10/10. Paid extra to get delivered quickly. Was disappointed in the ham and cheese. read more

This place has been my go to for as long as it's been opened. Moved to Indian and no offense but SoCal donut shops reign supreme. Went back to this place last week and it was like home. Delicious everything and now they have conchas! Great to see that. Service is always great. Always bustling no matter what time but they have enough people there so the wait is non existent. Class donut shop ambiance with drink menus and sandwich menus on the wall. Love luvn donuts! read more

Luv n Donuts - Donuts and the beach - Donuts Near Me - Santa Ana, California

Luvin' Donuts, as an afternoon (and afterthought) donut runs are always fun, and the lady at the counter, was super nice, even gave us a few extras. We obviously lucked out! Luvin' Donuts, like most classic pink-box donut shop, is a local community store, with a solid variety of choices (check out the menu), and plenty of parking in this plaza. The donut shop was clean, but there was a slight wet-smell. The doors were propped open with a wet floor sign nearby, so maybe there had been a spill. It just didn't have the sweet aroma I expected. I keep snooping their speciality which included taro donut -- very unexpected but interesting!!! On the opposite end of the shop, there's a "coffee bar" station to self pour your own coffee and add creamer/etc. The blueberry donut was good. Overall, a good place to pick up a dozen donuts enroute to the office or afternoon later with coffee treats for your teammates. read more

This is such a great place if you just want a quick breakfast or dessert item, I absolutely adore any kind of ham/turkey and cheese croissant so when I ran into this shop and found out they had some I was so excited. They offer it room temp or heated and have such a wide variety of drinks as well. The people helping are quick and friendly. This shop is definitely worth the price read more

I came to eat a somewhat little cheat breakfast. Saw this was around the area and so I was like oooo donut shoppppp!!! The inside feel like a mom and pop shop which will say support you all!! Next to a cycling place pretty tempting must I say to come after a workout ahahahahahaha. Anyways the inside has a few booths and is pretty fresh inside. The ac be acing for sure. Service was fast. 4/5 ham and cheese croissant with jalapeños nothing to compliment about and nothing too special 3/5 on the Vietnamese coffee. I would think it would be strong but it wasn't and was kinda sad jt wasn't strong but good favor just not strong enough for me ahahhahah read more

I just have to stop and take the time to acknowledge good service in a donut shop. Yesterday I had to be at work at 6 a.m. on a Sunday; so I wanted to get some donuts for my bosses and some of my co-workers and I definitely wanted to go to one of my favorite donut shops; which conveniently is around the corner from my job. Now this means that I needed the donut shop to be open no later than 5:30 a.m. so that I wasn't late for work. My husband checked Yelp for me and wouldn't you know it Luv n Donuts opened at 4 a.m. and was readily stocked with some really good donuts and my favorites as well. I l love that Luv n Donuts always have some really cute good donuts for the holidays and some of the biggest best croissants you ever had! Yesterday I tried a glaze cinnamon twist that caught my eye and it was delicious! Unfortunately I can't speak to many other items such as the sandwiches, coffee, etc because I've only have tried the donuts and croissants; which is what I need out of a donut shop. The other good thing is it's in a nice area that makes it easily accessible to get in and out quickly. Now you might drive up and see a line at any given time but know that they move it along very quickly and you will be in and out. Thank you Luv n Donuts for making an early work morning donut delicious! read more

My husband loves maple bars so I ordered Happy Birthday letter donuts all as maple bars. He was surprised and it was a fun way to make a non-milestone birthday a little more special :) So grateful to Luv n Donuts for doing this at such an affordable price. Have been there for regular donuts many times before, and valentines hearts on Valentine's Day are always so cute from here too. The donuts are not too greasy or oily like other donut shops, and always light and fluffy and airy. What you'd want in a freshly baked donut ;) A great, neighborhood donut shop that I will continue going to. Also just great to support a local business! Definitely go if you haven't been yet. read more

Luv n Donuts - Happy 37 B-Day custom maple donuts - Donuts Near Me - Santa Ana, California

My new donut spot! Stopped by around 1pm today (Tuesday) & had no issues with parking or lines. Service was quick & friendly. They didn't have a full display of donuts but had the 4 I wanted (maple & chocolate bars, sugar & glazed twist). The donuts tasted fresh & delicious. I think it would've been $6.40 with cash but with card, paid a little over $7. Not a problem - just will remember to get cash next time! (Just as an FYI there's a BOA and Chase across the street / you can do cash back at Vons) read more

Donuts here are fantastic! The service is great m. I am always greeted with a smile and prompt service. These donuts are as tasty as the more expensive donut shops. I don't know where they got their recipe from but it's like Krispy Kreme so soft and fresh! Ambience is the normal fare but it's the donuts you're there for! read more

Wow, the food and donut selection and coffee selection is off the hook! The service is wonderful. They also have café de Olla and it is bomb Diggity. Super happy with this place. Little mom and Pop shop supporting local business very clean couldn't be happier. read more

First time here and the line was out the door. The service was fast, efficient, and it was super clean. The donuts I ordered were extremely light and fluffy. The bagel sandwich had fresh egg and a ton of bacon on it. The coffee was not the best, in my opinion. Overall, I would visit this location again if I was in the area. read more

I've been an on-again, off-again customer at Luv N Donuts for the past few years. They offer a great variety of breakfast sandwiches, bagels, and donuts, which is the main reason why I go (although the food is nothing spectacular, just average). However, I won't be returning to this location due to the inconsistent pricing based on who takes your order. Today, when I ordered a #5 bagel with avocado, which is listed at $7.50, the younger Hispanic woman charged me a flat $10.00. Her explanation was that avocado is not included in the price, despite it clearly being listed as included. I didn't mind paying, but I don't appreciate being overcharged, even if it's just 50 cents. This isn't the first time I've been charged different prices for the same item, so it's definitely a no-go for me. read more

We went in right before closing time and the donuts were delicious. They still had plenty available. Some favorites were the maple and bacon donut, the old-fashioned donut, and the chocolate cake donut. Will definitely be returning! The place itself is small but has a good amount of seating if you need it. The worker was completely fine with us coming in 15 minutes before closing too! read more

Best donut place . First time here tried their blueberry donut and chocolate ones . They taste great ! The customer service was amazing. Super sweet lady . Definitely will be coming here . Thank you so much read more

Luv this donut shop !!! I love how attentive the staff is ! Even if they are busy they got your order on lock & deliver a great service

I ordered the Jalapeño & Ham & Cheese Croissants, Maple Cronut, and a hard-boiled egg. The warm ham & Cheese was excellent. It goes well with my coffee. The cronuts are an added treat, and maple is my favorite flavor. But the surprise is the availability of hard-boiled eggs , that was genius for me. The ladies are lovely & friendly, and accommodating to my request. Good place to bring kids. It has a small dining area for a quick snack . I see neighborhood family's coming and going which gives a family oriented atmosphere. I luv it here, will be back more often . read more

This is my gf & i's favorite donut spot. We always get the #2 breakfast bagel. They have so much good stuff that your average donut shop doesn't. Fresh squeezed orange juice they make in front of you as well as the BEST fruit smoothies. I recommend everyone try this place, it'll be your new spot read more

I was in the area so popped in for a dozen donuts to go. Omg, these look like your average donuts from any donut shop... but the texture and softness of these donuts are better than average and I could tell a difference immediately. They also have more specialty donuts like a taro donut, bacon donut, and others with special toppings. Those specialty donuts cost a little more than standard, but a box of standard donuts is about ~$16. read more

Great donuts and great service. I will definitely be coming back. Breakfast sandwiches also very good and ham/cheese/jalapeño croissant

Best donuts around. Make sure you get here early though because the delicious cake donuts with sprinkles sell out so fast. They're my favorite here and I've never had a better one. Their icing they use is so thick and really tasty. Other places just have the thinnest layer and call it a day but these donuts are practically frosted it's so thick. The service is always nice, the ladies working here are awesome. They're so quick they work through their line in a snap. Shoot I'm thinking I should have lied though because now everyone's going to buy my favorite donut! I was kidding! The best donuts are the glazed twists! Take those instead read more

This is my go to spot here!! The maple bar is a must, it's soft and fluffy and a has a good amount of maple on top -- it's the perfect combo. I also do like the Apple fritter! I've also gotten the, correct me if I'm wrong, the #14 breakfast sandwich, which is a Bacon, Sausage, Egg and Cheese croissant -- so good! The ladies that run this, are so quick and friendly. The past few times I've gone, I've noticed they have regulars, which is always a good sign for mom and pop shop like them! read more

Food was good, customer service was great super friendly and patient. Many options, they serve breakfast and lunch sandwiches with low carb options. read more

This is my go to donut shop when I need to order a large batch for our office. They are always accommodating and even wrapped up each donut individually before putting them in a box at our request during the pandemic. The nice ladies will even help bring the boxes to your car with you needing to ask. They donuts are delicious, never taste stale, and their breakfast croissants are STUFFED. Don't forget to try their Vietnamese coffee too! The mornings can get busy with other early birds so try to order in advance by phone if you have a large order. read more

Been loyal since 1988. WELL? NOT ANYMORE!! New employees who huddle around the cash register to over charge. I called to let them know my order was incorrect. The rude man on phone wanted me to drive over 15 miles to bring doughnuts back. I tried to make it simple, but he hung up the phone one me. I guess it's back to Krispie Kreme! 0 STARS!

Unsanitary food handling conditions--I won't be back. I came in for a box of donuts this morning (8/4). A young lady came out of the back and took both her hands and tucked her hair behind her ears. I asked her to wash her hands before she handled my donuts. Instead she mumbled something to the other woman at the counter and went to the back of the store where I heard her complaining to the other workers about me. Then more customers came in and she came out to help them WITHOUT washing her hands. Gross. It's against California health code to not wash your hands after touching a body part. read more

Excellent service and excellent food! It's a nice place to stop for a bite. Been going here for years and I love it!
