Baby shower donuts
Rocio A.

I ordered 3 dozen baby shower themed donuts for my sisters baby shower. The donuts were perfect!!! Not only were they beautiful but they were also delicious!!! They were worth every penny! Service was also great. I forgot to get his name but he understood exactly what I wanted and exceeded my expectations. The donuts were ready on time and tasted super fresh. I cannot wait to order again!

Hungover breakfast burrito

I love coming here everything here is soooo good. I tried the hungover breakfast burrito omg 10/10 everyone needs to try it. Everyone here is super nice too and everything is always super clean I love mama donuts

Not your average family owed donut shop. They are super friendly and they have the best donuts. If you want beautifully decorated ones they go all out for the holidays and even just custom ones.

Donuts!

How lucky are we to have Mama's Donuts in Lake Balboa? Everything is fresh, including juice & coffee. Wide menu selection with everything you could want for breakfast or lunch. Nice prices & friendly staff! Plenty of seating with lots of light to sit & enjoy your meal...

Ask the Community - Mama's Donuts

What is the cost for a plain donut....and Apple Fritters?

Can they make a large texas-sized donut with some decor on it? I want to use it in lieu of a birthday cake.

Are the unicorn donuts custom made or are they available daily?

Both. On the weekends they go fast.

Is it made of white chocolate the glazing or just sugar glaze?

How much do the donuts go for?

Hello! Good day. How much is a blue glazed donut ? Per piece?

Holy smokes, I'm so happy to have found this spot. What a local gem. Food is very yummy and…read morespecial, the entire menu has something for everyone. Nut free, gluten free is rare. This place is a hit. Try one of each and everything. I love that the sweets are not too sweet, the bagels are fantastic. No matter what you try you won't be disappointed. It's one of those that maked you wanna come back for more. Good quality oils, chocolate was super yummy. I wish they used dark chocolate in the "croissants " but still a big smile on anyone's face who tried them. Service I will say could use more smiles. I wish it was perhaps a bit friendlier but that's okay. Someone may have had an off day. Hopefully better next time. Ambience is cozy, even date worthy. Everything on display was picture perfect.

I really like Modern Bread and Bagel. Been a few times before, but 1st time reviewing. Admittedly…read moreit's not cheap (which keeps me from binging on the baked goods) and not exactly next door, which keeps me in check as well. Was feeling indulgent so I went with the special stuffed pastrami Smoked salmon bagel - basically a warmed up pull apart bagel stuffed with smoked salmon, cream cheese, green onions - heavenly. I got the latke tots as well to round out my carb fest - they are good, little latkes dusted with parmesan and chives with alioi to dip in. Yeah, that was a lot. Maybe I'll go back to my regular Smoked salmon bagel or eggs next time.

You walk in thinking, "Cool, I'll grab a donut." Next thing…read moreyou know, you're surrounded by donuts, fruit, chips, drinks, sandwiches, and basically half a convenience store. Surprise! This place is way more than just a donut shop..and I love it! The donuts are fresh with a great variety and reasonable prices, but what really keeps me coming back is the vibe. It's conveniently located off Balboa and Victory, has a decent-sized parking lot, and is perfect for quick stops or snack emergencies. And then there's Judy...the absolute sweetheart who runs the place. She's funny, warm, and you can tell her soul is fully invested in this cozy Lake Balboa donut kingdom. You don't just get donuts here -- you get jokes, good energy, and that "neighborhood spot" feeling. Come for the donut. Leave with snacks, a smile, and probably more than you planned to buy. Highly recommend!

I stop by occasionally for last minute cravings /needs before school. The variety is great, but the…read moreservice is consistently unpleasant. Each time I've visited, the environment has felt uneasy. I understand they deal with a lot of teenagers, but that shouldn't excuse poor customer service. During my last visit, I watched the cashier answer a ringing phone in the middle of helping an elderly customer, talking over him and seeming irritated when he waited for her to finish. It was uncomfortable to see, and it prompted me to leave this review. Good variety doesn't make up for bad service. I wouldn't recommend this place if you're expecting to feel welcomed.
