Great donuts! I finally got custom letter donuts from here for a birthday. Placing the order was simple as I called the store a day before I wanted to pickup with my specifications. You're able to pick out the letters and sprinkles, glaze. They came out fresh and each letter was large in height. The custom letters are $5.25 per letter as of November 2025. Parking in this plaza is easy and pickup was simple they had it ready at the time I requested. read more

I'm not sure what sorcery they use for their donuts, but my gawd they're delicious. Even the donut holes (usually my source of judgement on the quality & yumminess of a donut) they were like little pops of soft sugary loafs of heaven. Ughhh. But not too sweet! It's not overpowering in sweetness. Again, what sorcery is this? lol At first, I was hesitant to pay almost $30 for a dozen donuts (that I didn't get to select, it was via DoorDash & based on hopes it would be a good selection.) I'm so happy they put a sprinkle & a glazed twist, a decent variety for everyone (& selfishly for me.) I will absolutely be getting my donuts from here, totally worth it. read more

Okay, so one of our patients brought us donuts and ham & cheese croissants from Mag's Donuts... and OMG those croissants were next-level delicious! Buttery, cheesy, hammy goodness -- basically perfection in pastry form. I could've eaten like five, no shame. Didn't get to try the donuts because they vanished faster than my willpower on a cheat day but judging by how good the croissants were, I'm 99.9% sure the donuts slap too. Mag's Donuts, you've officially ruined all other croissants for me. read more

This place is so good! I can't speak on their coffee or donuts, but their breakfast burrito was amazing. It is simple with eggs, cheese, bacon, potatoes, and sausage. It is served hot, fresh, and with a hot salsa dip. Each bite was so flavorful and delicious. The burrito takes awhile to make so be prepared to wait 10-15 minutes depending on how busy it is. I went in the morning and the service was slow, but the line moved quick. There is plenty of space to park in this plaza. The inside of the place is small with a few tables and chairs. This is a great grab and go location to satisfy your sweet or savory cravings for an affordable price! read more

It was also crispy & light compared to most cake donuts I've tried. SO GOOD. Their ham & cheese filled croissant was perfect. They also have jalapeño ham & cheese filled croissant which I assumed were good as the person behind me ordered 4. The owners were two older couple I think? And were both super friendly!

I'm not a huge fan of donuts in general but if I find a unique donut I will definitely try it. This place has good choices and all the employees are helpful. I am basing my rating for my second visit and a little on my first. The reason why my first visit wasn't so great was because even though the donuts were good and employees were nice, I did notice some flies roaming over the donuts and it's because it was so hot that day and they kept the door open. The second visit I came first thing when they opened and it was fine. Also I wanted to order their donut letters but it was $4.25 for each letter!!!! That's so pricey! Next time I definitely want to try their breakfast sandwiches and drinks. This place is very busy on a weekend in the morning so that's always a good sign. read more

My brother had a craving for Boston Creme donuts. In his search for donuts, he came across Mag's Donuts and Bakery. He figured he'd give it a whirl and ordered a dozen for delivery, and I'm so glad he did because Mag's bavarian cream filled donuts definitely hit the spot. The dough alone speaks for itself. The dough was noticeably soft, fresh, and everything you'd expect from a good donut. I was worried the dough may be dry or wouldn't taste fresh and like the donuts had been sitting out for a while, which I feel is sadly the case for most donut shops, but I'm happy to say that was not the case at all with Mag's Donuts. The dough was perfectly soft and SO good and made the whole experience better. The Bavarian cream filling was the cherry on top of these donuts. They had the perfect amount of cream filling. Not too much, not too little, which I appreciate because most donut shops are stingy with their custard filling. Not Mag's Donuts. They give you the perfect amount, so you get some in almost every bite. Overall, I would give these donuts easily 5 out of 5 stars and hope to try more donuts from Mag's donuts because they are donut goals! read more

I came here on an early morning before watching my 2 month old granddaughter! My son in law suggested. It has a nice appearance on the outside and looks clean and smells nice on the inside! I ordered two plain croissants for my daughter and my almost 2 year old granddaughter. I ordered a jalapeño ham and cheese croissant for myself! The workers there seem nice. My croissant was warmed up and was awesome! They sure put alot of ham, cheese, and jalapeños. Well worth it! When back in the area, will definitely come back! Oh, by the way, if you spend at least $10 they won't charge the 75 cents for using a card. read more

Seriously, Mag's has THE best donuts. I try not to eat donuts, but if I want to splurge and have a treat, I only get donuts at Mag's. And if you do come, don't worry about getting more because their donuts stay fresh for about 3 days. They also have large letter donuts that you can order in advance. Samantha is always so helpful. Their shop is always clean when I visit. If you want fresh, light, airy, fluffy, yummy donuts, give Mag's a try!!! read more

I had the biggest crave for a blueberry muffin this morning, and since I had no dinner last night, it had to be one of those "muffin top included" sizes, so I was pretty excited when I saw Mag's photo on Doordash and immediately ordered 4 (mine is a fairly remote office) - one for each remaining workday. First: SUPER FRESH, Deliciously Soft and Yum Yum Yummy! What I most love is that their online photo truly matches what I received. Chock full of sweet blueberries and these muffins are so soft - just like I like them. Nicest people and fast delivery. I want to support ALL our fantastic, hard-working local businesses. This will be my company's new go to for muffins and donuts going forward. Thanks so much, Mag's! Totally made my morning. read more

Wow. I think I may have found my new favorite donut place. I stumbled upon it about 3 weeks ago and have been there twice already. The donuts are amazing and perfectly fluffy.. if that makes sense. Even on day 2 (at room temperature) there are amazing, not sure how it would be if they were refrigerated.. they would probably last more but we finished a dozen by day 2 lol. Absolutely delicious. I got the original glaze, chocolate glaze, maple and chocolate bar, and my son wanted the strawberry glazed with sprinkles. My family absolutely loved them and I will definitely be back when we get that donut craving! Great customer service too! read more

This isn't an indictment on the donuts themselves, which are totally fine and tasty. My beef is the price. $23.70 for a dozen generic, garden-variety donuts is highway robbery.

Happened to be in the area and craving donuts, so this was the closest shop around. Service was nice and the small line moved pretty quick. They had plenty of options for donuts and croissants, and all looked pretty good. They did warn us the maple bars were wet, which they were and it was kinda eh, but oh well. The frosted cake donut was a little subpar along with the basic glazed donut. I feel like it's pretty hard to mess those up, but they just didn't taste that good compared to many other donut shops. I guess we're lucky it's not our local shop, but yeah we'll probably skip this if we're ever in the area. read more

The donuts were so soft and delicious with a nice weight to them. I think it's a limited one, but if you get a chance to order their Reese's donut try it! It's soooo good!

The store is tiny, and because it's right next to all the bars, the area gets crowded with a lot of drunk people. If that isn't your scene, stick to a weekday visit. * Rewards: It is quite expensive, but it's a nice treat. Plus, you can sign up with your phone number to get discounts for future visits. The Parking Situation: * Virtually Non-Existent: There is no parking lot, so you are stuck looking for small spots along the side of the road. * Accessibility: There is no designated handicap parking, so keep that in mind if you aren't prepared to walk a bit from a side street. Final Verdict: It's a perfect weekday spot for a warm dessert, just be prepared for the peninsula parking struggle!

Picked up a pistachio croissant and took it to go and it was absolutely delicious. The outer layer…read morehad a very nice crisp to it, the pistachios complement very well, and overall this was absolutely satisfying to eat. It had the perfect level of crunch and flakiness to it while maintaining a consistent pistachio filling. Best part is that the pistachio wasn't overwhelming and did not overtake the whole croissant. The workers were nice and friendly and the experience overall was great! Will be coming back when I'm in the area.

WHY DOES THIS BAKERY HAVE A 4.5+ RATING?…read more This is our first visit. Clearly the pastries are a very high level of quality and french cuisine. We had breakfast - an omelette, some bacon and lamb sausage, potatoes, and a cappuccino. we also had some pastries. All excellently prepared. We're going to try something else besides the omelette next time...it was OK but not "out of the park" so we'll try something else next week. Service - after we ordered at the counter our food was delivered to the table which are all located outside on a well-shaded patio. We always split our dishes - my wife and I can't eat an entire plate of food. It's not "table service" - they don't come back and check you or help with water or drinks, etc. Whatever you want you must return to the counter. But service at the counter is very friendly and helpful. The ambiance is an outdoor cafe....noisy neighbors, wind when it blows, dogs, all the regular stuff - good seating and umbrellas with some areas naturally shaded...lots of tables relative to the size of the shop. Very friendly staff. Why do my reviews get over 1,000 views every time we visit a new place? We don't know but it seems consistent. We feature very critical reviews - we rate high but include serious critiques. Maybe that's it.

This small probably locally-owned bakery is unassuming from the outside but they're quietly…read moreoffering delicious treats that you must try! The staff are humble and exceedingly friendly which is becoming more and more rare as prices in the OC soar beyond tolerable levels. However if you have a few extra dollars in your pocket, spend them on the lovely chocolate or raspberry cream walnut croissants at this place. Airy and light but flavorful bundles of joy! I also ordered the delectable chocolate cake, which was not too sweet. 4 layers of cake and filling. You can actually taste the chocolate in the light layers. One can still imagine the affection imbued into their baked goods as you enjoy them. Unlike many of the others nearby who have crossed into "it's just a business" mentality. Run don't walk to this hidden gem! I will definitely be a repeat visitor.

Seemed like it needed something more to flavor it up. Strawberry Short Cake was very good, with just the right amount of strawberries. Chocolate Mousse Cake had excellent taste and was beautifully presented. Hoping to stop by soon at their location and try some more delicious looking desserts.

My favorite is the wheat sourdough croissant. The coffee is also really good. I usually just stick with the ice vanilla latte. It's always crowded in a good way and all of the egg breakfast dishes look really good. Looking forward to going back.

Makes the perfect spot for photos but other than the ambiance, the food and drinks were just ok. It felt like something we could make at home and my friend's omelet ran a little runny/undercooked. Unfortunately, we had dog poop left underneath our table against the wall and we didn't notice until after we were cleaning up. I understand it's a pet-friendly cafe but that was a bit of turn-off...There's also some flies or bugs flying around if you sit outside given the nature. Overall, friendly service, abundant seating, limited parking, and ok food at ok prices.
