    Cute boxes and delicious pastries at Old Ferry Donut
    Sarretta M.

    Yum. My friend's daughter really wanted to try old ferry doughnut while we were in the LA area. I'm glad we did! We tried a variety of donuts and all were delicious. Surface was quick and friendly, and the location was clean and bright.

    Friends came to visit tonight, and after dinner, we took them here to get some donuts from Old Ferry Donut. There were a lot of options, but we chose the Cookie and Cream Donut and Dubai Matcha. Both donuts were great, especially with the filling. Dubai Matcha Donuts are a must-have, highly recommended! Friends were satisfied with desserts after dinner!

    Wow, the donuts here are beautiful and the fact that they are stuffed takes it to another level. The space is also very retro. Great service. Nice merch selection. Please come and create your own adventure.

    My love language is showing up to your house with donuts, and Old Ferry has made me the most popular person in every room. You're welcome, everyone. The maple pecan, Dubai pistachio, and PB&J are my personalities. Nutty, crunchy, a little extra? That's the dream. The coffee is great, the retro vibes are giving, the merch is dangerously cute, and the staff actually seems happy to be there (hella rare!). Clean, charming, and fully responsible for my reputation as a good friend. Do not deprive yourself.

    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!

    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.

    The donuts here are absolutely delicious! My favorite donut here is the butter pistachio, but all their donuts are delicious and fluffy! Service is fast. The space is a bit small with a few tables to enjoy your don't if you'd like, but I took mine to go. This place is definitely where to go for a sweet treat.

    Cute donut spot next to so many other stores. Great for a quick grab. I got the pistachio butter and it's so delicious with a yummy filling. I also tried the raspberry ball. Not too sweet and has a great jam inside. The service was so friendly and patient while we chose our donuts. The inside was so cute too, with lots of merch and no open seating.

    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.

    Butter Pistachio Donut, Creme Brulee Donut and Coffee Cream Ball
    Darlene D.

    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.

    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.

    Coconut Butter Pistachio Raspberry Ball
    Jess C.

    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.

    Our picks. Loved the Tiramisu Donut! Tasted like a Tiramisu in donut form.
    Cindy S.

    High quality donuts! Old Ferry Donut shop specializes in cream-custard filled and fruit jelly filled donuts. A few Glazed ring donuts are also available. The Old Ferry brand originating from Seoul, South Korea, has 5 five locations in Southern California (Koreatown LA, Buena Park, San Gabriel, Torrance, and Cerritos). Our favorite is the tiramisu cream and raspberry filling! These donuts are fresh, light, fluffy, and just the right amount of sweet. Some flavors are sweeter than others. In addition to donuts, Old Ferry Donut offers drinks such as Coffee, Cold Brews, Lattes, Teas; and Specialty Drinks, such as, Creamy Sesame Latte. Yummy!

    On Yelp it says that closing time is at 9 but I showed up to the SG location right at 8 and they were closing up. Is the time on Yelp incorrect?

    Supposedly, they do close at 9pm, but that's if they don't sell out. The actual closing time is "til they are sold out or 9pm, whichever came first"

    Is it better to get there at a certain time (before they sell out)?

    i wouldn't say there is a set time each day but go early if you want the best selection

    Do they have the merch section like they do at the location in Buena Park!?

    Yes they do!

I've been here before, but ever since Salju went viral on TikTok, it's definitely gotten a lot busier compared to past years. That said, the quality is still great. I ordered a regular milk shaved ice with mango and mochi, plus condensed milk drizzled on top. The shaved ice itself and the toppings were delicious, but I'd probably skip the condensed milk next time since it made everything a bit too sweet for my taste. Portion sizes are generous. The small is easily enough to share between two people, and the medium is massive. There are tons of flavor options to choose from, and orders come out pretty quickly despite how busy it can get!

Souffle pancakes in different occasions always look so pretty, are the best everyone's ever had, some some flavor profiles don't work. Maybe that's why the menu sometimes changes. For example the yuzu grape was completely bland because the yuzu drizzle on top was a thin line i couldn't taste at all. At least put a spread between each layer or pour a lot on top like the others (eg berry or mango). The mint leaves was the most potent flavor in this dish. Over the grapes, blueberries, matcha powder, yuzu. Got the mango triple layer drink this time and if you drink it carefully, you can appreciate the contrast from the mango puree, the milk, the creamy salted matcha. If you just mix it up completely you won't get that affect. One thing that bothers me is because the menu changes I seem to always be unable to get something I'm thinking of from the previous visit. I recall last time I had some mochi and rice ball I added to a drink that was so damn good and I couldn't add it this time. Though I recall that drink being $11.50 from the add ons. The souffle pancake was $21... so place is $$ but again the quality is there. Service wise, never interacted with staff really. Kiosk to order. Drinks just sit at counter when done. Didn't call numbers. Oh they did bring the pancake, no words spoken.
