The staff was so friendly and accommodating. Parking was easy and store was easy to locate.

Niles Donuts makes super fresh donuts at their corner shop: my go-to is the cinnamon twist ($2.75) - it's sky-high fluffy and yeasty goodness with a light sprinkle of cinnamon and a crisp thin glaze, so just a touch of sweetness. Plus, it's large enough for 2+ servings. It's your typical simple utilitarian donut shop with two booths to eat-in. It's very clean & tidy. The ladies are quick and courteous. There's always at least one or two people in line ahead of you, no matter what time of day it is. Which means it's good! Get there early by 10/10:30 am: breakfast sandwiches are definitely all gone by then and the donut case is down to maybe a third full. The early bird gets the best & freshest donuts! They come out warm if you get there early enough (5-7 am). Sometimes they have tamales and fried egg rolls for sale, which are delicious too. You can probably call in to order them. I decided to be adventurous and branch out to try something different. The chocolate frosted chocolate cake donut ($1.75) was medium chocolatey, fresh, a little bit crisp, and lightly sweet. Will get it again when I'm in the mood for chocolate and cake donuts. The apple fritter ($2.75) had a few chunks of apple, slightly crisp, a little cinnamon and sweet, fried perfectly (not oily), but it was spread-out flat. I like mine with lots of crags almost crunchy, filled with apples & cinnamon, and lofty & yeasty. I'll pass on it in the future, unless it looks more craggily and dome shaped next time. Docked a half star. I got a maple bar filled with custard cream ($2.75) and it was giant, filled to the brim from both sides! The filling was a vanilla pudding and they were so generous, it almost burst when I bit into it. The maple flavor was fragrant and the donut was yeasty good, but the filling had a funny aftertaste - an astringent bitter like artificial sweetener. Sorry, I had to dock another half star for this misstep. Next time I'll just get the maple bar plain ($2.50). I noticed the prices are higher by about 50¢, if you order online through DoorDash or other apps. Also if you buy a half dozen or more donuts, the pink box is free. Otherwise, it's 50¢. read more

A little update since it's been some time! It was an early morning and we needed a donut treat. Niles Donuts was on route back home so we decided why not? Parking in the lot is fine, it's small but there are some folks that are a little questionable roaming about. We went in, was greeted in a friendly manner. There seem to be a lot of regulars as we let someone go in front of us as we were still deciding and they knew them right away. They had a pretty wide selection of donuts. We got a chocolate old fashioned and a maple donut. And paid by cash as I believe there's a minimum for card. Inside it's pretty no frills typical donut shop. I devoured my old fashioned when I got home. It was crispy and crunchy on the outside and soft in the inside. Good flavor. I've bumped up the rating as it's definitely good. I'd drop by again if ever craving a donut in the area. read more

Good donuts, friendly staff, good location if you commute through Niles Canyon Road or are near a local hospital like Kaiser Permanente.

Their plain donuts are so good. The parking can be tough since there are only a few spots. Also I had to U-turn to get in, depending on which direction you come from. Service was fast and friendly. I would come again to try their Vietnamese coffee. Ambiance is extremely casual, just a normal donut shop. If I am around this vicinity, I would come again. Will not purposely drive over here to get the donuts. read more

Hole in the wall donut place, loved huge egg cheese croissant and coffee. It's very pocket friendly as well!

Solid donuts and turnovers served fresh at this mom and pop shop in this little rundown corner of town. Yes, it's not the most welcoming looking dingy lot, but the lot is frequented by locals and commuters looking to grab a quick snack so there's a lot of churn and the food is quite good. From the outside, Niles Donuts looks nothing spectacular but when you enter, you'll be immersed in a clean establishment with friendly staff and great looking baked goods and pastries ready for immediate consumption. There's also coffee still sitting hot on the side and smoothies and frappes just a blend away. If you have more appetite than a sweet treat, you'll have the option to order breakfast or lunch sandwiches served on bagels or huge croissants. They also have egg rolls with chicken, pork, or shrimp filling to round out your hearty meal. The highlights for me in terms of the sweets have to be their abundance of turnovers sprinkled with rock sugar and filled with a variety of jam flavors. Their chocolate frosted donuts are also very good. The chocolate is rich but not too sweet, however like all chocolate, they don't survive the heat well so on a hot day, you may opt for something less melty. The prices are reasonable if you factor in the size and quality of their donuts. Their raised and cake donuts are delicious. Overall, the donuts here are great and the service is quick and efficient. The location isn't the best but most likely you'll be in and out and on your way to enjoy your goodies elsewhere. If you're in the area and looking for a sweet pick-me-up for you or the crew, Niles Donuts has got you covered! read more

I found this place on a drive by going to my doctor's appointment. This place is nested in a small strip mall. If you are not stopped on the intersection and looked around, you can miss this place. Their donuts are good! It is moist and not airy like some donuts I've had in other places. This is my new "go to" when I crave for donuts. read more

The one time I went there a few years ago, they barely had a few stale looking donuts. The staff didn't seem interested to be there. It was a weird experience for me. Never went back.. read more

Great little neighborhood donut shop run by the friendliest family! Enjoyed the raised glazed donuts as well as the buttermilk bars and old-fashioneds. Will have to come back to try the egg rolls! read more

So many other options for better food, location, service! Only worth it if passing through Niles!! Otherwise give your business to a better place! read more

Beautiful and fluffy donuts! The counter staff is really cool. My usual donut place is Lucky donut in San Leandro, but when I am further south, this is my go-to place. read more

If you blink you'll miss it. Friendly donut spot that sells a killer breakfast sandwich and they are not stingy with the protein. Ive been to one that about a block a way, $3 more than this place with way less protein. I'm glad I finally made the stop here. I will most definitely come back. Coffee is on point. Donut holes hit the spot as they always do. They also sell other Asian meals there. Eggrolls, spring roll and many more. Come on in folks! I promise you won't regret it read more

I really like their Vietnamese iced coffee. For me personally, it's the perfect balance of bitterness and sweetness. They don't fill ice to the brim, so I feel like you're really getting a good amount of coffee. I just found out they also offer Thai Tea and they have a small boba smoothie menu. The ladies are super nice and welcoming all the time. They sell breakfast sandwiches, donuts and egg rolls too. read more

Best place to go to in the morning, Delicious and fast !!!! Always ready to accommodate my needs. If they run out of something they will hurry and make it with a timely manner. Everything is YUMMY here!!!!!!! Every time I walk in they always greet me with a smile and ask how me and my family are doing , that makes me feel very welcoming and makes this place feel family oriented. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!!! read more

I love my blueberry donut from here. A local donut shop with all the goodies. Friendly and speedy service.

I highly recommend this place! I came it to get a Too Good To Go order and was greeted with smiles right away. They were super generous with their order. Their donuts were super fresh and yummy too. You should definitely check them out. Thank you, Niles Donuts! read more

"And I wonder if I ever cross your mind. For me it happens all the time..." - Lady A. Yes, I admit I do love country music. Especially those lonely, jilted lover songs *sigh*. So, I've been on this crazy schedule at work the past "no life" month but looks like we're finally caught up! And yes, I need to invest in more than six briefs! Of course I'm driving through tri-city and jonesing for the D... It's a quarter after one. I'm a little drunk and I need you now. Said I wouldn't call, but I lost all control And I need you now... Donuts! Yeah, I'm sure you were thinking that D lol! Anyways, on this early weekend morning I decide to check-off my list... Niles Donuts. It's located on Mission Blvd in the historic Niles district, jus' about a country block from the train tracks... really! Just look for the 7-eleven and bum and you're there! Nothing fancy, but a cute 'lil spot serving donuts, coffee, and lumpia lol. Yes, I was surprised with the later, and now as I'm miles away regret not picking up a couple. I did pickup a coconut cake, green tea cake donuts, and house coffee. The fresh donuts and the coffee definitely hit the spot for this Cowboy on the run. Again, nothing fancy about the spot, nothing extravagant about the donuts, but affordable and not yesterday's bunch! Yes I'd rather hurt than feel nothing at all. I just need you now. Oh baby I need you now... In the end, I recommend Niles Donuts in the historic Niles district if needing the D. Of course you know what D I'm talking about.. Oh baby I need you now;) read more

You can get VIETNAMESE COFFEE and EGGROLLS here! Small classic donut shop right in the small plaza turning into Niles. This is the closest place I can think of that has "authentic" Vietnamese coffee like something you would get at a cafe in East San Jose. Its a delicious, cold, and vibrant way to get your day started. The eggrolls were not my preference, I thought they might be like Vietnamese eggrolls but they were more chinese-takeout style with cabbage. They do have ground meat in them and come with the sweet-and-sour dipping sauce but these are my least favorite style of eggrolls though they were crispy and packed with ingredients. Donuts were OK, nothing was wrong with them at all and they are way better than anything you can get at grocery stores but there are better local donut places. The ladies that work here are very sweet and kind, very friendly and will get your day going with positive vibes. read more

Holy smokes have you seen the size of their breakfast sandwiches! It's bigger than my hand. Now I'm not saying size is the only thing that matters here lol it's much more than that. We ordered the SAUSAGE, EGG & CHEESE Croissant. The croissant was so fresh and immediately had this sweet buttery aroma, and then they stuff it "edge" to "edge" sausage & egg people. I think it was under $7 too and ONE actually fed two people. I was so pleasantly surprised and will skip any other breakfast sandwich on the go options and grab them here when it's one of those days instead. Ok ok I'm not gonna lie we might of also grabbed a donut tee hee and I've had their donuts before. The donut still did not disappoint, I love how they aren't super greasy and they taste fresh. My dad was a pastry chef in his younger years and his best friend from pastry school owned a donut shop for over 30 years so I'm picky. This place maintains great quality and they are always friendly. Sandwiches, Bagels, hard boiled eggs, bananas, egg rolls, tamales , donuts & more! Please try everything on their menu , you won't regret it. read more

We came here hungry and pretty much wanted to try everything, as they sell an interesting combination of menu items... donuts, sandwiches, and egg rolls! Oh yeah, lotto tickets too! Yup we tried them all. The donuts were fresh and delicous. Our croissant sandwiches were served hot, with tasty turkey and sausage and melted cheese stuffed into soft and light croissants, and were pretty large in size. The chicken eggroll had good consistency, slightly crispy, and filled with flavorful ingredients (a bit different than what I'm used to, they were thin and long, I'm pretty sure Thai eggrolls). And the scratcher ticket, well I didn't win, but it was cool finding a music scratcher here and fun to play (and they just added the purchase to my credit card payment, unlike many other places that only accept cash for lotto). We also got a couple bottled beverages, and took everything to go and had a picnic in the park, though they do have a few tables inside the shop for dine-in. The workers provided instant service and were friendly and efficient. Parking was easy too, as they have a small parking lot. There's nothing I didn't like about this place, and they have a fairly large menu to choose from that you can't really find online since they don't have a website (see my pics for the menu as of May 2023). read more

Great donuts. Went early and they had a big selection. We had old fashioned and bars. Maple and chocolate really tasty. Warm service. We'll be back! read more

Stopped here to grab donuts and a breakfast sandwich yesterday around 11:30 AM. Since about 6-7 PM last night I have had one of the worst cases of food poisoning I've ever experienced. It took until the middle of the night for me to drink fluids without vomiting, and around 12 PM today nibbling on saltines was the first time my body could hold down any food. The sandwich is the only thing I ate that my roommates did not, so I can only assume that's where I got it. Regardless, I'd be wary about coming here for anything again. read more

Finally I found a place that can do Donuts right. Nice and fluffy, not overly sweet. So soft and done right. I love the glazed and sugar donuts. Yum. The ladies there are nice and the prices are fair. For sure will be doing my donuts runs here. read more

I have to say...a review of this place is way overdue by me. I have gone and picked up donuts on a couple of occasions (I know they are bad for you, but after running a 90 mile week along with some hill sprints I am not even counting in the total mileage equation, I deserved some fats and cholesterol). As always the donuts are great. Never had a problem with them (they always seem fresh). What sticks out the most for me is that the people working there are always cheerful, nice, and full of smiles. You don't see that very often in the hustle and bustle world and quite frankly it is mood booster for me. I am literally 5-6 minutes away...so yes will be a returning customer. read more

Stopped on my way to work to buy a twist. Glazed donut paid $2.50 for it bit into it and it's full of grease. Disgusting. Never again will I purchase from them. read more

This is now my go to for Thai Ice Tea, coffee or a quick snack, donut or sandwich. They also have a large variety of drinks and donuts. They even have smoothies here. I tried the avocado and it was yummy! My favorite are their egg rolls. The donuts are always soft and fresh. They close early, I believe 3pm so if you get there at 2-3 they might be low on variety of donuts. They bake fresh every morning. I even ordered a 24 pack for my baby shower, they're so good. The owner and others that work there are really nice. It's a family owned business and I'm always trying to support small businesses! read more

This is the best donut shop in Fremont - hands down. Quality (texture AND taste), location, and value. Yes, you've got expensive boogie shops like Gonutz or the cheap value donuts from supermarkets like Lucky's. But nothing can beat the true American classic of a nice donut with a cup of coffee from a superior quality donut shop! read more

I love this place because the people running it are super sweet, and their food is hella quality. When I first went here a few years back, a super sweet older couple were the ones that helped me out. Today, two ladies helped me out that were friendly as well (They teased me because I had to come back inside after I was already in my car because I forgot to get a drink lol). I bought a B.L.T. with everything on it. It was so thicc that when I pulled it out of the bag to eat while I was driving, everything spilled out and fell on the floor of my car. SADNESS. :( Luckily, the other half remained unharmed and whole. The half that dropped on the floor was consumed anyways because I'm not about to waste all that bacon and (some) greens! But yeah, once again, super quality food and I really enjoyed my sandwich. They loaded it up with provolone, fresh veggies, and the croissant was so so fresh mmmm, my fave part of the sandwich. I got my Mom a honey ham (I'm not a fan) sandwich, with everything on it as well, and she couldn't stop talking about how it was very good and how she loved it!! She talked about how the greens were fresh, crispy and had a kick to it, how the bread was fresh, and she just kept saying "That sandwich was very good!" probably like 20x otw home hahaha. I'm so glad she enjoyed it :D I highly recommend this spot for the super fair prices, really really quality and good food, and hella friendly people that are running the place. :) read more

Hesitant to give them a good review only bc I'd love to keep them as a small town secret. Donuts are fluffy and delicious. The woman behind the counter is one of the sweetest people I've ever met. Not sure if she is the owner or if the owners are just that lucky to find someone that sweet to run the register and shop. read more

I just left this place with my husband & our toddler. We ordered 2 donuts, super simple. I read all the reviews and thought we'd try it. HORRIBLE, STALE and rock hard! The chocolate they use is nasty and tastes cheap. I took the donuts back to the counter and the "lady" said "hold on let me get .....(whatever her name is". She comes out with the dirtiest look on her face, tells me there's nothing wrong with her donuts. I told her they're stale and the chocolate doesn't taste right. She started screaming at me to never come back. My daughter got upset that she was yelling. DON'T worry we WON'T be coming back for your NASTY donuts. The RUDEST people AND they can't even get their donuts right. read more
