Their banana milk is my favorite! It kind of tastes like the leftover frosted flakes cereal milk. It may be too sweet for most. I admit it would be perfect if it was less sweet. I don't like artificial banana flavors and somehow the milk doesn't taste as artificial, but i like subtly sweet banana flavored things. As much as I love matcha, I don't normally like matcha desserts that much but the matcha donut was delicious! Although, my alltime favorites are going to be the pistachio and the peanut butter donuts here. I think this might be my favorite donut place. Their merch is super cute too! I got a bag from there, but I kind of want everything ahahaha. read more

Stopped in on my way to work as I drive by it all the time. Saw some of the reviews and decided it was time to try this place out! Ordered a single shot espresso and the very popular butter pistachio donut. It was HUGE. I shared it with a co-worker as I knew there was just no way I alone could finish it. This thing was decadent... and totally up anyone's alley who has a severe sweet tooth. I typically do not like overly sweet things, but I have to admit, this was very good. The espresso was good and strong, and for me, a single shot was more than enough to get me through my morning. As I was the only customer in the place at the time, service was quick and friendly. I will definitely be back to try other donuts! read more

I had a lovely experience at Old Ferry Donut (San Gabriel). I ordered the Tiramisu Donut ($4.95). It's a fluffy, BIG donut that tastes like a decadent tiramisu. It's also filled with a light, soft cream. DELICIOUS! I arrived at Old Ferry Donut (San Gabriel) on a Wednesday (around 3:42PM). Parking is simple. There's a competitive customer parking lot. And there's a city public parking lot about a two minute walk away. Staff is very friendly, professional, and welcoming. Staff maintained a bright smile throughout my visit. Staff immediately helped me. Customers can order at the self-service kiosk or counter; however, the kiosk felt very dated & the prices on the kiosk felt less transparent. I recommend just ordering at the counter. There's no penalty for using card at this donut establishment. As mentioned, I love the Tiramisu Donut ($4.95). It's not too sweet; rather, it all felt balanced. However, this is a VERY messy donut; I recommend eating this donut with a fork and knife. The powder fall everywhere, and your clothes can quickly get stained with chocolate powder. Still, it's a delicious pastry. On ambiance, Old Ferry Donut (San Gabriel) is comfortable. This business is more reminiscent of a cafe than a typical donut shop. There's customer internet with password; details on the counter. There's a gender neutral restroom. And there's an electrical outlet & outlet adaptor for devices. The location is fairly small; there's one interior table and one small counter. Fortunately, this place felt airy and well-ventilated. There's also some upbeat, fun music in this clean spot. Overall, I found unexpected joy at Old Ferry Donut (San Gabriel). There's sincere passion & hard work within these walls. If searching for a special donut for a special someone, this is an easy spot to recommend. 4.9 out of 5! Go! read more

Was craving a coffee and stubble duping this spot on Yelp. And of course the donut was the star of the show! I had the crème brûlée donut and was immediately in love. It's the kind of donut that would make your heart happy! Loved the taste of the toasted glaze on top and filling inside. The donut was surprisingly light and not too doughy. I had their ice cream latte which was a bit too milky for my liking. I feel like a simple black coffee would have gone perfectly paired with the donut. The girl working there was very welcoming and in fact recommended the donut! So that was a win. read more

4/26/25 How did I not drop a review here!? Oh for shame! Thandar is super awesome, friendly--always providing service with a smile. Donuts are so daRn decadent & devilishly delicious that I can't help but return over & over! Cute donut shop with retro design inside & out. The butter pistachio got me on a chokehold- it beckoned and I was hooked!!! So soft, rich, decadent but amazingly not overly sweet. Hubby really fawned over the regular peanut butter donut. Both have this captivating filling that'll bring you to your knees. Dare I say, a mouthgasm? (Stole that word from fellow Yelp Elite, Leonard). Nuff said. Run. Don't walk! Coz once they're sold out for the day, you're @$$3D out Parking can be tricky as it shares a lot that includes Paris Baguette & Bonchon. Enjoy! read more

Hmmm might be our new favorite donut place. This place has unique flavors such as blueberry, lemon poppy seed (although tastes more tangy & fruity). It's, as Asians like to say, not too sweet. They don't skimp on the flavor. The decor of the San Gabriel location looks dated. I know it's intentional but they could've made it look chicer. We ordered three boxes of donuts and the only girl working there gave us two coffees for free. Also, we let a couple go ahead of us since they only ordered individual donuts. Worth checking out. Price is a bit steep. Update: After introducing the place to my parents, they went to Old Ferry Donut themselves two weeks later to get more donuts. They really liked it as well. They also got another box for my sister. They liked that there's so many flavors to choose from. read more

Old Ferry is located in a small plaza with a designated parking lot. They have a large selection of donut flavors!! Of the donuts I ordered the stand outs for me were the Butter Pistachio and the Dubai Matcha Donut. The Butter Pistachio is a staple, offering a nutty exterior with a sweet creme filling inside. The donuts are light so you can eat a lot!! I also enjoyed the Dubai Matcha, it wasn't too sweet and had a subtle matcha flavor with a flakey interior to add to the texture. So yummy!! read more

I recently discovered this donut shop while looking for something beyond the usual traditional flavors and I'm glad I did. Everything I tried had just the right level of sweetness without being overpowering. I ordered: Butter Pistachio donut Crème Brûlée donut Peanut Butter & Jelly donut Peanut Butter donut Onion Sesame (2) All of the donuts were delicious, with unique flavors that really stand out. I haven't tried everything yet, but I'm definitely on a mission to come back and work my way through the menu. My all time favorite is the Onion Sesame flavor. But all in all they were all very good. Customer service was excellent, and the shop itself has a really trendy, welcoming vibe. Overall a great find! read more

5 stars for the iced cream latte. It was rich and the roasty taste of the coffee was the best! Also got the Dubai choco donut and the crème brûlée donut. I love chocolate and was really looking forward to the Dubai choco donut but there wasn't much chocolate on it and the cocoa powder on top made the bites powdery and dry. I also wish there was more filling in the crème brûlée donut. I'll come back again for the coffee though! read more

I'm obsessed with their cream cafe latte! Perfect not too Sweet and you still taste the espresso! It reminds me of sweet cream cold brew but creamier. Paired with my top 3 favorites, raspberry ring for a sweet and slightly tart treat! I've been coming after work and haven't seen the usual gentlemen there, I think maybe it's their daughter or a part timer working now? She's very lovely and knows her stuff! Everyone here is always very welcoming and helpful! read more

While I was in the area, there were lots of options for desserts or sweets. Old Ferry Donut popped up and I was somehow drawn by the pictures of cream filled donuts. One of those and a nice coffee drink sounded amazing to me. Here you have lots of options from cream filled or their regular specialty donuts. It was hard making a decision as I want to try a few different ones. I tried there Milk Cream Ball and Choco Hazelnut, which were both recommendations given by the person working there. Along with that, I was recommended to try the Iced Cream Latte. To be honest, that coffee drink may be one of the best I've had, it was bold, rich, and had all the flavors I personally like in my coffee. The donuts were both really good as well, I would probably want to try their Earl Grey, Dubai chocolate, and Pistachio next time. Service was very friendly and helpful. There are only a couple tables to sit inside. Enjoyed everything but definitely try their iced cream coffee! read more

I love this place! I had it when I was in Korea and was pleasantly surprised to see one in the SGV area. The store is decorated very cutely and I love their hamster mascot. There's limited seating and I feel like most people take it to-go or go in small groups. I tried the pistachio butter and the coffee cream one and both were really great but I loved the pistachio butter the most! It had a very light and nutty texture and was mildly sweet. These donuts are pretty big and I would say one is enough! Luckily I was able to share with a few friends. Great place to stop by if you're looking for a sweet treat! read more

Old Ferry Donut - Donuts Near Me - San Gabriel, California

Old Ferry Donut is a donut store that was originally from Seoul, Korea, and has come to the SGV. I have to say this little cute bear icon/mascot is adorable and also the items that they sell have a large variety. This donut store is in the same plaza as Paris Baguette and many other stores. The place might be a little difficult if you come here on the weekend, you might have to find parking on the street. I ordered an original glazed and a pistachio donut. Both of the donuts were delicious and honestly, I wish I had ordered more!! It's ok next time! Worth it. read more

I got the milk cream ball donut. The service was really nice. I've been here before and it was the same guy who helped me. Still friendly and kind as before! The donut was really good. I'm not sure if it was because I put the donut in the refrigerator or not, but it was really refreshing. The milk cream was so, so good. I think maybe it was cold, it's a bit harder so it added to the texture. Would come again! (no pictures) read more

Old Ferry Donut makes genuinely great donuts. While they are on the pricier side, they're absolutely worth it. The donuts are hefty, well made, and satisfying, with fillings that are rich but balanced--sweet without being overwhelming. Quality-wise, they deliver, and it's definitely a place worth driving out for. That said, the customer service was a letdown. My wife and I both noticed it immediately upon walking in--there was no greeting at all. There wasn't much enthusiasm or explanation about the products, and the interaction felt awkward and disengaged. We even had to ask whether we were supposed to order through the machine, only to be told she would take our order instead--again, without much interaction or warmth. The blank, indifferent demeanor made the experience feel off. Honestly, given how the interaction went, it almost would have been better to rely solely on the ordering machines and have zero staff interaction altogether. The product itself is strong, but the service detracts from what could otherwise be a great experience. In short: excellent donuts that justify the price, but customer service that needs serious improvement to match the quality of the food. read more

Trendy donuts! I was getting dinner with a friend in the same plaza and noticed Old Ferry Donut! I know that they opened one in the SGV but I never found the time to go. I came on a Monday late afternoon/early dinner and there were still plenty of options! They have a clear display that shows what they have left! They keep up with the food trends and had a matcha dubai and a dubai chocolate donut! I got to try a bite of the dubai chocolate and it was decent! The one that I took home was the cookies and cream one. I appreciated that the filling wasn't overly sweet and the inside was fluffy. It was still a little sweet for my opinion. read more

Donuts are yummy! Came here on a whim over the weekend. First thing I noticed was the door handle. The inside was also very clean. I'm assuming the owner of the shop was the one working if I remembered correctly. He was really nice and friendly. Recommended some options to me as I wasn't sure what to get. I ended up selecting the pistachio one for myself and the coconut one for my husband. I also was captured by the brightness of the raspberry flavored donut, so I got that too. All 3 were amazing but the pistachio was my favorite. We will be back. read more

I arrived about an hour before closing and was surprised to still find a good selection of donuts available. This shop offers a unique variety of donuts to choose from. I chose the following donuts: Creme Brulee, Milk Cream Ball, Peanut Butter, Butter Pistachio, Tiramisu, and Mango Cream Ball. Let's start with the Creme Brulee. This was one of the donuts I was most excited to try. The outside had a crackly sugar crust, while the inside held a generous amount of custard cream. I thoroughly enjoyed the custard cream, but I wasn't a fan of the exterior of the donut. Next up is the Milk Cream Ball. The outside was coated with sugar, while the inside contained rich milk cream. The cream wasn't very sweet but had a strong milk flavor. It was complemented nicely by the sugar coating. This donut showcased a delicate balance that was very well executed. Now, for the Peanut Butter Donut. This was filled with a rich, nutty peanut butter cream. It was sweet, but not overbearing. Definitely a solid pick for peanut butter lovers. Time to talk about my favorite: the Butter Pistachio Donut. This was a butterscotch-glazed donut filled with pistachio cream. The rich filling paired with the buttery glaze and nutty crunch was absolute heaven! Next up was my second favorite: the Tiramisu Donut. A coffee-glazed donut dusted with cacao powder and filled with creamy mascarpone. It was smooth, rich, and dessert-like. An ideal blend of sophistication and indulgence. Last but not least, the Mango Cream Ball. This was a soft, sugar-coated donut filled with mango-flavored cream. It was similar to the Milk Cream Ball, but with a tropical twist. The mango cream was smooth and fruit-forward. The ambiance was casual and kid-friendly. The interior captures a cozy, boutique-style charm with wood paneling, retro-inspired decor, and pops of bright orange reflecting the brand's playful identity. The service was fast and friendly. While my cashier wasn't overly talkative, she was helpful in giving me recommendations. While the donuts are on the pricier side, they're well worth it! Overall, this shop delivers an elevated donut experience that blends creative flavors with beautiful execution and a stylish, boutique-style ambiance. If you're in the area, I highly recommend stopping by!

What I Ordered: -Tiramisu Donut $5.75 Old Ferry Donut was founded in Seoul in 2016 as South Korea's first craft donut brand and has since expanded to several locations in the US. We visited the plaza for lunch and I wanted a quick dessert. I asked the staff for recommendations, and the Tiramisu Donut was suggested. It was a great choice! I really enjoyed the Tiramisu Donut. It's dusted with cacao powder and filled with a creamy mascarpone cream, which reminded me of a Boston Cream donut, but without the chocolate frosting. I would definitely come back to try other flavors. read more

Unique flavors and a decadent treat -- would recommend coming here with others and splitting different donuts to try them all. parking: free lot outside seating: small tables inside the shop outlets: available near indoor seating wifi: free ambiance: very quiet when we went during the mid-morning drinks: iced cream latte -- pretty sweet, not a strong coffee flavor. Would recommend just splurging on the donuts and not focus on their drinks. donuts*: both flavors we tried are quite sweet, but have a great soft crumb and are very fun to try. *butter pistachio -- soft bite with a subtle texture from the crumble on top. *tiramisu -- smooth chocolate frosting on top with sweet custard in the center. read more

Was in the area and walked in to see what's new. Noticed that they now have a Dubai Chocolate Donut. It definitely caught my eye because of the craze over this trend. It looked like a chocolate donut with the classic dubai pistachio filling and cream, dusted with cocoa powder. The kadayif was very stale and not crunchy at all. The flavors were there but the crunch was missing. Not worth the $8 in my opinion. Would just stick to the Butter Pistachio Donut. read more

The bread part of the donut is soft, fluffy and not too sweet!!! The fillings are really up to personal preference but I thought they were just ok. Raspberry ball- raspberry jam, very sweet, it was giving smuckers straight from the jar (didn't like) Mango ball- mango cream similar to Asian mango cake filling (I did like this one!!), not too sweet Boston creme- not as much filling as the others, sweeter than mango but not too sweet (just ok, not that special) Didn't get to try the coffee one unfortunately! The donut bread is nice and fluffy but it's only 10% of the donut and there's SO much filling (which is great if you love your filling and sucks if you don't) I'd be willing to come back and try some other flavors but the parking lot is sooooo tiny and hard to find parking so it'd have to be when it's not busy! read more

Very cute donut shop! Was excited to try this place after hearing good things about it! The aesthetics of this shop is so adorable too!! Even the packaging! We tried their famous butter pistachio donut as well as hazelnut chocolate, cookies & cream, and crème brûlée! I was very impressed because these aren't ordinary donuts. They're filled! Honestly, I understand the hype with their butter pistachio. It's become my favorite flavor. It's not overly sweet either. The pistachio topping has a nice subtle crisp & goes well with the creme filling. Highly recommend getting this one! Hazelnut chocolate looked so decadent I had to get it. If you're a fan of chocolate, this flavor is definitely for you! You get a chocolate outer shell AND it also has chocolate filling. Cookies & cream was rly good too. Not only it's topped with Oreos & crème but even the filling too! Crème brûlée had a nice custard filling with a nice sugar topping! Overall, they're so generous with their toppings & filling but it's not overly sweet at all. & their donuts are so soft! I highly recommend coming here for your sweet cravings! read more

First time trying this Donnie place after my daughter kept asking for it. The place is quaint and cute. I ordered the butter pistachio and it is sooooo good! I was expecting it to be sugary sweet but it isn't at all, even with the filling. It was lightly sweet and buttery, a very delicious unexpected experience. My 7 year old got the choco donut with pecan sprinkles on top and loved it as well. Will definitely be back to try more flavors. read more

I was next door to this donut shop and decided to check it out since my friend had told me it was good. I came here an hour before closing, so they didn't have much flavors left for the day, but I was able to get their butter pistachio donut to-go. The packaging was so cute, it came in this orange box which perfectly housed the donut, which I appreciated compared to if a single box was served in a paper bag. The box just elevated the experience and prevented the topping to rub off the donut. I got the donut to go, and was in and out of the store within 5 minutes, but I saw that they sold drinks as well, which I would be curious to try next time. The butter pistachio donut was good, although pretty sweet. I shared one donut amongst two people which I thought was more than enough. It was a bit salty, which I liked because it balanced out the sweetness, but I couldn't really taste the pistachio much. I still really liked the donut, it was fluffy, big, and the topping to dough ratio was good. This store is located in a plaza with parking, although the plaza does get busy so there's parking in the back as well. The donut is ~$5 which is expensive for a donut, but the size is big and they offer special asian-inspired flavors, so I think it's a nice treat to get every once in a while. read more

Loved everything about Old Ferry Donut! Amazing that's all I gotta say! I think everything I ordered was as equally good as the other. Still, we got some favorites up in here! Located in the corner of a small plaza on West Los Tunas drive where big flavors collide nests this amazing donuttery. Walked in and was immediately greeted and just off the vibe and decor I was like this place is the jam! They got lots of flavor, and what I most enjoyed was you don't feel nasty after consuming their donut. Usually other places make you feel sick from all the sugar intake. Old Ferry Donut felt lite and just right. Nothing seemed over glutinous. Tbh you could have two donuts and still feel alright(wink wink). So my wife was craving something sweet and so was I, so box of four please! Crème Brûlée, Butter Pistachio, Tiramisu, and hazelnut choco! All slapped in their own way. Nothing was a fail. Each donut had its wow factor after each bite. Now my favorite was the Tiramisu and Butter Pistachio. Remember when I said they feel lite. Pricing was usual, not like that random hole in the wall donut shop. Old Ferry Donut put more love and attention to their donuts. Very esthetic, kinda like those fancy donut shop but without paying your arm and leg(at least I think). I think every donut was under 5 bucks, which was a great deal. And you already know always gotta leave a tip! Super enjoyable place, will be back to try out some more delights! read more
