The CUTEST donuts ever!! and they taste great! The texture of the donuts is nice and stayed pretty fresh tasting after a day. The donuts are all normal bases and the flavors come through on the frosting glazes. Definitely some interesting flavors that surprised me that were great -- loved the Blue Raspberry (Squirtle) and Honey Lemon (Psyduck). Definitely recommend for cutie donuts + great taste!

Moonbridge Doughnut Studio is a doughnut shop in Long Beach that features themed doughnuts. Doughnuts run about $6.50 each. When you spend $13 for two doughnuts, it's pretty extraordinary; however, in my opinion, the flavor and textures of the doughnuts were pretty ordinary. This "doughnut studio" is more about the creativity of their instagrammable doughnut art; however, my two-star review reflects my feeling that I care more about flavor than aesthetic, particularly if a single doughnut costs more than $6. I hope that you enjoy their donuts more than I do. If you want to enjoy their beautifully decorated doughnuts, then you should follow their IG @moonbridgedoughnuts so that you could find their doughnut themes that strike your fancy.

Animal Crossing Donuts

Moonbridge is amazing! If you're looking for a cute, whimsical, inclusive, and great quality donut shop. This is it! They were so kind to me when I came in to pick up two orders of their special Animal Crossing donuts. I had placed an order ahead of time and came in during a rush. They only had one order ready and were getting the second one ready which was going to take about 10-15 minutes. Since I had to wait, they were kind enough to give me complimentary donut holes (that I was totally willing to pay for btw!). Not only was the shop cute, and their service great, the donuts were so fresh and so delicious. I'll definitely be coming back for their Pokemon collab. Thanks Moonbridge!

Moonbridge Doughnut Studio is the most colorful, girly, exuberant doughnut shop with frequent events, seasonal flavors, and pop-ups taking place. Inside, there are pink, off-yellow walls with artwork and a corner for merch. I came on a super eventful morning for an Animal Crossing enamel pins and stationary pop-up. Surprisingly, service worked quickly and there were plenty of doughnuts to choose from! For the seasonal specials, they had Animal Crossing, Heated Rivalry, and "Ice Out" doughnuts (the latter with a portion of their sales being donated to the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights). They also offer classic doughnuts like glazed, chocolate sprinkles, vanilla icing, and fritters, along with lattes, refreshers, and coffee. The doughnuts themselves are very fluffy and sweet! I adored their honey lemon icing from one of their "Ice Out" doughnuts and their "Marina" strawberry milkshake icing doughnut (Animal Crossing) so much! The Heated Rivalry doughnuts--Hollander's fruit punch and Rozanov's salted malted vanilla icing--were also both spectacular!

Came here for their animal crossing donuts on a Sunday afternoon and the line was outside the door. Be sure to come early, wear comfortable shoes and be prepared to wait for a while especially if you are looking to secure a specific themed donut. An hour before closing, most of the characters were sold out and there were only a few Kapp'n and Daisy Mae left. The Kapp'n tropical hotel matcha was also unavailable since they were out of their mango milk. The interior is so cute and decorated with artwork, and their story. No seats inside but there are a couple of tables outside the store. These donuts are such a work of art! They use brioche donuts for all their flavors. It's chewy, soft, airy and not greasy at all. The flavoring is all from the icing. I personally love their citrus flavors like yuzu and calamansi. I left the donuts in the car on a sunny day for a few hours while shopping and I'm definitely impressed how the icing stayed on and didn't melt. Definitely a must visit if you are in Long Beach!

Now this is MY type of donut shop! I've been following this company for a while now and was so devastated when I missed their Miyazaki donuts the first time around and then finally were able to get them this year for Miyazaki's birthday! I absolutely love their interior vibe and the donuts they create are so creative and beautifully crafted! I love that they have a schedule to always celebrate different pop cultural events! Not only are the donuts so well thought out, but they're flavors match their taste as well! I especially loved the Oreo, strawberry Mei's sign, and omg the ramen yuzu!! The two strawberries were a little repetitive but and I felt like the sign was a little more basic of the donuts but overall such a great design! I did an at home fork and film of Kiki's delivery's service and used these donuts for her cake too! Keep designing!

I've been here a couple times for the ghibli themed items & the designs do not disappoint! I am a HUUUUGE Miyazaki fan & always get a rush when they come out with something new. But aside from their ghibli items, they have different awesome themes that they bring into the store. I highly recommend pre-ordering on their website because they do sell out of their popular stuff or you might have to wait a bit in the store for them to make it for you. Either way, worth it :) Store is super cute & clean. Service is always great. Keep it up guys!! We love yall!

im a sucker for all things kawaii! moonbridge doughnuts has been on my list to visit for awhile but the opposite direction whenever im in LB. i was running some errands and made a pit stop to grab some donuts. ik they have a rotating menu and hear they are pretty tasty as well. there was no line during my visit, yayy for me, it was about an hr to their closing time. their theme during my visit is Pokémon and Bruno Mars!! i ordered: GLAZE APPLE FRITTER (V) MAPLE APPLE FRITTER (V) SPRINKLE BOMB BISCOFF CRUMB, NUTELLA SMOKIN OUT THE WINDOW (java chip) 24K MAGIC (Fruit Punch (Passionfruit, Cherry Pomegranate, Blood Orange) really cute shop. handful of seating inside, merch avail for purchase. ive only tried the biscoff crumb and it was light and fluffy. it would be diglett? or his evolution biglett? idk 10 for creativity and execution!! parking: no issues with parking.

So beautiful.

I've been wanting to try this spot for the longest! First off this place was aesthetically beautiful. The thought that went behind designing this place was just fitting. I've heard so many great things about their themed doughnuts. Got to see the Pokemon decor on their doughnuts and they were just beautiful. They're so creative!! I ordered their banana matcha latte. It was quite delicious! I also got a doughnut called "coffee & cigarettes" I think that's what it was. That was yummy too! I wish it was warmer, but the doughnut was nice and fluffy inside - still had a soft texture inside. The service was great! So friendly and sweet!

I enjoyed my first taste of Moonbridge donuts Friday morning as a surprise treat from a coworker. We had a variety of their donuts to meet everyone's tastes. I chose the Happy Lunar New Year (honey lemon icing) and was delighted by the light flavor and subtle sweetness. I'll definitely need to stop by for my own box to choose more goodies to try soon.

Just wanted a little snack and I saw this donut shop on maps and I was like why not try it out. Honestly I tonight it was gonna be like a mom and pop but it wasn't. These donuts were more in the specialty side and a bit bigger than the usual donut at mom and pops shop The inside was nicely decorated and again donut were as well! Pretty with colors and well lit. I got a the coffee one with like a little cigarette! I liked that the donut wasn't too overwhelming sweet! The doughy wasn't too dense either!! I will I would the dough to be more soft and chewy but again that's personal preference The girl helped me out and gave me suggestion! She told if I wanted a free donut I can do a survey. But the donut was only for me so i didn't fill it out personally but hey good tip!

This place has been on my list for a long time to visit and their high school musical 20th anniversary donuts finally got me here! I got 3 themed donuts and 2 "regular" ones (mint chocolate chip and a fudge one). The donuts themselves are really big and fluffy. The price is worth it with the portion size, taste and how detailed the designs are. Follow them on Instagram to keep up with what their pop culture theme of the week is as they are constantly rotating.

Studio Ghilbi themed donuts.
Maria E.

They often come out with theme donuts and they are objectively creative and beautiful looking. Most recently they came out with some Ghilbi donuts we couldn't pass up. Our favorite from that set was a Matcha flavored one mainly because it was the most balanced, less sweet donut offering. We also pre-ordered the set. There is no seating inside so it's strictly "to-go". The decorations are cute. Now the service...um...the male cashier was a bit abrupt...just a tad (or on the border between nice and rude). When I told him I had a pre-order, he asked for the order number which, of course I have to find in my purse...so I asked him, would my name help in locating my order? He responds, "Well, yes, but the number is faster." Okay, fine. I give him my name, but then go on my phone to locate my order number...but then he locates my order (with my name) in less that 2 seconds. Um...so my name was sufficient? Like, why be weird about it? LOL. Okay, not a big deal...but just a glitch in the overall customer service experience. Definitely check them out though. The donuts are pretty and pretty good.

A very welcoming vibe upon entry, we were greeted by a friendly couple who answered our questions about popular drink flavors. We decided to go with a Hot Cinnamon Dulce Latte and an Iced Blueberry Lavender Latte. While waiting, there were plenty of chairs, tables, a comfy couch and even a bar area to sit and relax. Tons of board games, books and wonderfully mellow music helps make the experience feel comforting and inviting. Our drinks were prepared quickly and shouted at the coffee bar for pickup. The presentation was great, but the flavors, out of this world! The Cinnamon Dulce Latte was OUTSTANDING. So good, in fact, that my girlfriend stole it from me! Not to worry, her Blueberry Lavender Latte was also top-notch, with a smooth, not-to-sweet flavor combination. Friendly staff (which comes with occasional karaoke renditions from the Bluetooth speakers), a chill vibe and outstanding drinks make this a top spot in the area for hardcore coffee lovers.

I also ordered the PB&J donut and happily waited in the parking lot for about 20 minutes while they made it fresh. Completely worth the wait. Everything tasted fresh, balanced, and really well made.

At Long Beach's Sweet Retreat Donuts, that meant limited-edition experimental donut varieties (mostly with tropical flavor profiles), as well as a reliable vegan donut lineup. Clearly, Sweet Retreat has been doing something right, as it's been a Pacific Coast Highway favorite for a decade. Over the years, it has garnered recognition from plenty of local news outlets, from Eater LA to LAist. The cramped strip mall is more eye-catching for its reptile supply store rather than its donut shop. Inside the shop, the expansive, donut-themed cartoon mural to the right immediately makes a statement. Houseplants are plentiful across the otherwise undecorated, whitewashed walls. Donuts are organized on trays by price, with the charge doodled directly onto the glass with a white marker. Ambient noise from the television is drowned out by chattering customers and the buzzing coffee machine. During the summer months, the AC-less shop feels tropically balmy. My partner and I arrived at Sweet Retreat late one Sunday morning, and the shop still boasted a steady stream of customers. By the time of our visit, the remaining selection was regrettably slim -- beyond the standard fare, the most unique donuts sported either candy coating or tropical frosting. We opted for a hibiscus-frosted raised donut and an apple fritter. The former had an excellent donut base, and the hibiscus frosting was floral and tropical (albiet I would have enjoyed a more punchy flavor). Meanwhile, the apple fritter fell on the cinnamon-y side, heavily doused in glaze so that each bite (even the edges) melted in your mouth; Sweet Retreat's rendition was one of my favorites in Greater LA. Our Vietnamese iced coffee was strong and sugary, but nothing more memorable than peer coffeeshops. The service was efficient, and our two donuts cost a reasonable $5 (even frill-free mom-and-pop shops charge in this range nowadays). The selection was sorely lacking, but Sweet Retreat more than made up for that with its high quality and reasonable prices. This bakery may not warrant a dedicated trip out of the way, but it is sure to deliver a satisfying treat if you're already in the neighborhood.

I left this place running for my car…read more The location is in a rough area of town, so while the donuts were edible, I felt compelled to issue a quick heads up warning for any unsuspecting newcomers. As I entered the parking lot I witnessed a lady hanging out of the window of a car missing a rear bumper, cursing at a minivan that looked like it had recently been involved in a series of hit-and-run crimes. I'm unclear what occurred before I got there, but kept my head down and quickly parked and scurried inside. The entrance had cardboard on the ground laid out like some sort of Oscar the Grouch red carpet. There were two people sitting at the middle two tables with portable shopping carts filled with assorted belongings. The interior matched the rest of neighborhood with random stuff laid out on counter tops, and a general dirty feeling that made me consider whether I wanted to buy food here, but I was already inside. There was a single woman working the counter. She was polite and matter of fact. I had promised my kids donuts, so I ordered my box to go. While she used appropriate tongs to put them in the box, she didn't bother to fully close or seal the box. Just looking to get out of there as quickly as possible, I headed immediately back to my car but was followed by an unknown man shouting at me asking if I could spare a dollar. I quickly fidgeted for my keys and pulled the door closed and locked it behind me. This was at 9am. I cannot imagine this place late at night. The donuts were basic and not overly sweet, more of a fried bread. My kids ate a few bites of each but it wasn't worth the stress of getting them.

I can definitely say I did just that, not knowing what to try first. As a unit, we love bananas, bacon, and strawberries. So with that, I solely ordered their maple and bacon, banana cream, strawberry shortcake, and a cinnamon roll. Once we got home, we sat down and tried all 4 donuts, taking a bite of each one. The banana and cream was a 10. I devoured the whole donut, not leaving anything for anyone else.tfhe maple bacon did quite do it for me nor did the strawberry shortcake. The cinnamon roll was for the hubby. Each donut brought it's own kinda flavor to the table. I intentionally went in to buy 2 donuts but left with 4 paying at $22.00 total Knead is a small location with one table inside no bathrooms available. Plenty parking that's for sure.
