My wife heard about this place so we came to try it out and they did not disappoint! This is a very cool doughnut shop, very clean inside. The staff are super helpful, we couldn't decide what flavors to get and they were super patient nice and open to answering our questions even with other customers coming in. The doughnuts were amazing! And so big which makes them worth the price. We'll definitely be returning. read more

Nice spot. The donuts are very sweet so I can eat half a donut at a time. I don't have a sweeth tooth but my husband who does devoured them. My favorite was the strawberry shortcake. FYI if you don't see the donut you want in the case ask the staff if they have it available. They may have some in the back that they will freshly glaze and decorate for you. read more

Co workers are always happy when you bring treats to work and mine were quite happy. The doughnuts are BIG. A few of us cut them up and we really enjoyed trying the different flavors. The box was soon empty and everyone was happy. read more

Only four stars for this location. They were out of many items. They only had coffee for beverages. One of my doughnuts was cold like it just came from the fridge. This location is dead compared to the other locations I've been to. I'll stick to Huntington, or Oceanside. read more

This is not your regular doughnut shop. You won't find raised or cake doughnuts here but instead what they call layered doughnuts, and they're delicious. A layered doughnut is like a cross between a croissant and a raised doughnut. They have a lot of flavors but they seem to run out early in the day even though they supposedly make small batches throughout the day. We came on a Sunday around 11am and they were out of some flavors. All of their doughnuts are $4.25 or $3.25 if you buy 12 or more. They also have mini versions as well as gluten free and vegan options. I decided to try their recommended French Toast flavor and Churro. The Churro one was simple with powdered sugar and chocolate on top, but it was good. The French Toast was much sweeter with a maple icing. It was okay but too sweet for me. We took our doughnuts to-go but the shop has a nice vintage vibe and enough tables to comfortably hangout in if you wanted to eat there. I love croissants so I enjoyed the texture of these doughnuts. I still like my traditional doughnuts but would come back when I want something a little different. Tip: Buy at least 2 doughnuts so they're packaged in a box. If you only get 1, they put it in a paper bag and it gets messy. Hopefully they'll consider getting single boxes. read more

Finally tried these layered donuts and I'm still thinking about them. Each bite was honestly better than the last. The layers are soft and fluffy with just the right amount of sweetness so it doesn't feel heavy. I paired mine with a matcha, a cold brew, and a latte with lavender added and I'm officially in my lavender syrup era. The coffee was smooth and balanced and went perfectly with the donuts. If you love a good coffee and pastry moment this spot is such a cozy little treat yourself stop. Definitely coming back to try more flavors. read more

Donuts are really good, fresh, tasty and such a yummy treat and show stopper when you bring a box for gatherings! Everyone always loves. Two problems - one they don't make the donuts fast enough so you never know what they'll have when you get there. See the written sign for strawberry cheesecake? Sorry the last one just got bought and you gotta wait 30 mins for the next batch. Also there is a lady who was a hit rude to us, I think her name is Jennifer. My family arrived before another couple but for some reason she waited on them first. Other couple wasn't ready, lady made an excuse to make us wait to order. It was awkward and very off putting. But I still like their donuts so. read more

The doughnuts are delicious. I tried the one with pecans and I had to eat the whole thing at once. It's a mix of a croissant and doughnut. It was great! read more

Gourmet donuts with a huge presentation. Excellent flavor. You can't eat a whole donut. You have to enjoy these by having a portion. They're so rich in flavor. Great location and friendly staff. I would definitely give them a try if you haven't. But don't expect it to be a donut. It's in a league of its own. read more

I'm not exactly a "sugar at sunrise" person, but every so often, self-control decides to check-out and I somehow end up face-to-face with a parade of doughnuts. Send help, but also, don't send help. THE FOOD - Bourbon Caramel. A layered, soft doughnut with bourbon-infused caramel glaze on top. The subtle whiskey note adds just enough depth to feel fancy, while still letting you shamelessly lick the glaze off your fingers. - French Toast. Lightly crisp on the outside and soft within, this doughnut captures the essence of French toast with a maple glaze and a gentle dusting of cinnamon sugar. This is a popular doughnut, often recommended to first-timers as a must try. - Coconut Cream Filled (Mini). A petite treat with a satisfying crunch, revealing a cool, creamy coconut filling. - Raspberry Jelly Filled (Mini). Tart raspberry nestled inside a soft, airy center, finished with a veil of powdered sugar. - Cinnamon Sugar (Mini). A timeless favorite, offering a warm cinnamon aroma and a tender crumb beneath its sugary coating. THE VERDICT Thoughtfully crafted and full of character, these doughnuts strike a balance between elegance and comfort. There are more to try out, which calls for several more visits in the future. read more

I have come here many times. The donuts are great, but the service is below average. Today's Mother's Day so the day before I scheduled an online pick up order for the morning of Mother's Day. I'm up early. I go down there to pick up the order. They don't have it ready. When I look at the case, it clearly looks like many of the selections that, I selected were already sold out. So they had to go back there and remake them. I love things that are fresh however, I don't love the fact that I had to wait. The problem is they over prioritize all the orders that they got this morning and they were speaking about it behind the counter so I could overhear them. I also caught them in a lie because they said their tickets fire off five minutes before an order is supposed to be fulfilled, which is untrue. I caught them in a lie, because another gentleman walked in shortly after me. We made a brief conversation and he mentioned, that he had placed his order yesterday for pick up today. His order was ready and sitting on the counter. So they simply forgot about my order and didn't fill it. They didn't have all of the necessary pieces to fill my order on time, so I had to wait. That was the whole reason why, I did the order online ahead of time instead of in person. If you're going to prioritize same-day orders, or the customers that are directly in front of you without taking care of the prior older orders that's a bad way to do business. When I called to let them know, I got home and I opened the donuts and they weren't the correct selections that I ordered. I got another excuse from a girl, and when I pressed why they didn't have my order ready she decided to hang up on me. read more

Was not impressed at all with these donuts. The chocolate was dripping off, super gooey and not in a good way, and the base of the donut tasted bland. read more

Saturday morning at 9am... crickets. No one was there! For good reason... I show up to see what the rave was all about. They had 1 marshmallow donut left and my 2 preschoolers wanted the same one despite my getting 2 different ones, so I asked for a knife. Seemed like I was talking a foreign language... the two young ladies at the front said it's against their policy to provide knives. I'm like can you please split this for the kiddos? They then threw a fit that it's against company policy to cut a donut even in the back. After getting upset, they begrudgingly cut one of the 2 donuts and gave me an attitude that "we don't cut donuts here". Puzzled I asked for their names and both refused and ran to the back... my young ones couldn't believe any of this either. This place isn't going to last!!! Such poor customer service. read more

I really liked this spot! Their donuts are DELICIOUS, somewhere in between a croissant and a donut and they don't feel as heavy!! They had lots of fun flavors, including seasonal donuts and drinks! Definitely one of those pastries I can eat all of. Service was great as well. The interior was comfortable and inviting, and I liked that they even had plates to use if you were dining in. I will definitely be back! read more

The donuts are more like cronuts. Soft, flaky, yet donut tasting. If you can't do many donuts due to their richness or density (like myself), these will be a great replacement!!! There's one opening in hunting beach soon and that is so much closer for us. Yayyyy. If they don't have one of the flavors that you want, it takes a minute for them to go and make one for you. The service is quick and they are very friendly. The line moves quick, too. Got doggies? They even have a doggie donut for your fur baby. read more

I got to try Parlor at a work meeting and would totally recommend! They were huge donuts, so definitely shareable. They tasted very fresh and had a great variety of flavors. I tried the Oreo which had a sweet glaze with chunks of Oreo. The berry and maple both looked great as well. It looks like they have Keto and other specialty options that I'd love to go back and try! read more

I randomly ran into parlor at 11am on a Saturday and just had to try! The majority of the donuts were already sold out by this time but I was able to try the bourbon caramel and each mini. OMG every single donut was amazing. They are light and fluffy and the icing was perfect. The value for cost is also totally worth it in comparison to some of the other specialty donut shops that are charging $6-7 per donut, these ranged between $3.50-6. read more

I've been a fan of Parlor Doughnuts since my very first encounter with this establishment in Oceanside. This location makes the same quality of croissant doughnut as their Oceanside location. It's crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. For $4.25, it's not bad compared to other gourmet donut shops. French Toast and Maple Bacon are my favorites. I'm not a fan of their Blueberry Hill since it tastes artificial and lacking in that fresh tart flavor I had hoped for. I love that they have interior seating and it's much larger compared to Oceanside. They're decor is clean, simple, and all around American. read more

I was impressed with the large size and the beauty of these gourmet doughnuts. The taste reinforced the beauty. Some were reminiscent of flaky croissants, while others were crunch on the outside and creamy on the inside. These doughnuts all had the same "base" and what made them different was the filling and the topping. The Churro one was very good, though it tasted only lightly of a churro. The coconut cream also was good: it had a light flavor of coconut. All were very good (and very filling). read more

Parlor Doughnuts - Churro, Coconut cream, Campfire and..... - Donuts Near Me - Laguna Niguel, California

I went this morning and ordered the coconut cream, french toast, lemon, blueberry, strawberry shortcake, chocolate & a cold brew. Overall the donuts were good but they are not as good as the iconic JD Flannel and Oliboli. The donuts are pre made and they kind of cold. The flavor was just ok and doesn't have the artisanal quality, texture and flavors of the other donut shops that I mentioned above. read more

Parlor Doughnuts - Strawberry shortcake, blueberry, lemon and coconut cream. - Donuts Near Me - Laguna Niguel, California

I really love donuts and was so excited to try a new spot. I ordered the almond joy, chocolate peanut butter, churro, and coconut cream to share. The donuts are pretty dense and have a lot going on. They're not bad, but I just prefer a simpler donut. I also like them when they're light and fluffy rather than dense. I can see why they're popular, but they just weren't for me. read more

I was pretty stoked to see what looked like a gourmet-type donut spot open up here. I went mid-morning, so perhaps the batch I'd had a donut from wasn't the most fresh, but the inside consistency of the donut was heavy, oil saturated, and doughy- rather than that fluffy, airy texture one would hope to bite through. The outside flaky crust was great though, and they have many creative flavors! I'd say the feel of the staff was a bit tense between manager and employees, which made a slight awkward visit. Im sure I'll give the place another try considering how close it is, but overall I was unfortunately underwhelmed. read more

This donut shop is basically a cronut specialty shop with so many different flavors. Newly opened in a busy shopping plaza. Have gotten this place twice already and I can safely say that I will be back. Each donut is super soft, yet flaky. Depending on the flavor you get, it can skew either very sweet (bourbon caramel) or subtle sweet (lemon). Some of them have frosting on top, which actually does nothing for me but it's fine anyway. Our favorite flavors include: maple pecan, coconut cream filled, and lemon. On the other hand, the "minis" taste a bit too dry for my liking. I believe they also have breakfast and coffee too. Definitely worth a try! read more

Parlor Doughnuts - Donuts with the minis - Donuts Near Me - Laguna Niguel, California

These are not your ordinary, run-of-the-mill, old-time doughnuts. They are large donut blobs that are puffy-soft inside (almost croissant-like) and incredibly delicious. This location is located in a shopping plaza so there's lots of parking. They have several tables inside if you decide to enjoy your donut here. The gals working here were nice and answered my questions about some of the flavors. I chose two - a maple bacon and a raspberry filled - and sat there to gorge myself on those two donutty delights. They provided me with a plate for each one. The maple bacon was wonderful with its maple glaze and bits of bacon on top. It's the sweet & salty experience. I can see why some might opt for using utensils to eat as you have to open wide to take a bite - these are thick (yet soft) doughnuts. The raspberry filled was excellent with gobs of filling. I am usually a neat eater but with the powdered sugar and vast amount of filling, I had a face full of white powder and raspberry jelly. I appreciated the napkin dispensers on the tables! A water dispenser and cups are available where the utensils are located. As is the case with gourmet donuts, these are a bit more pricey than the traditional type. read more

These doughnuts are massive and pillowy soft. My favorite is its signature flavor French Toast. It's basically a maple glazed doughnut but this place does a great job in its execution. Peanut Butter Cup and Sandy Beach (kind of like a cinnamon roll) were also great. I didn't care too much for its fruit-based doughnuts like Raspberry Pistachio and Strawberry Shortcake. They looked great but didn't quite have the tartness I expected from these fruits. read more

I went to parlor doughnuts and got the peanut butter donut and it was pretty good! One thing I was surprised about was the price for one and the size. It was pretty big for the $4.25 they charged me. The only gripe I had was that it was on the oilier side and was a little too sweet. read more

Great spot for big delicious donuts! The donuts here are quite large and the flavors not just the usual glazed type. They also have gluten free and mini options. Their coffee was pretty good which is always a plus when balancing the sweetness of donuts! They are relatively new to the area and I was surprised it's a franchise, even still, would definitely go back! The man who was there during my visit (I think the owner) was really nice and service was super. read more

Complete and total lack of caring. Shorted my order and ignored it completely. No thanks save your time it's a basic donut nothing special

Very good product, this is more of a cross breed, when a croissant and a donut has a baby, or referred to a cronut. Very good selection and good balance of flavors and nothing is overly sweet. This is more of a dessert than a donut. But a very good one. I used to work at a donut shop for years so I give the thumbs up. I love the large US flag on the wall and the inside decor. A young friendly staff as well. Plates, napkins and water even available. Once more folks discover this place I can see eventually lines out the door often. Come by try this unique donut! read more

Parlor Doughnuts - Donuts Near Me - Laguna Niguel, California

Unfortunate I have to leave just one star, but I do have to say there is very much needed improvement for this store. When a company has a doughnut and latte deal but the location does not have the ability to make a latte, there is a big problem. I really wanted to give this place another try but, that's strike two. The last time I was in here, I got an iced coffee and it was probably top 3 worst coffee flavor I have ever had. Again I really really wanted to give this try number two but this store made that not an option. I do hope in future whoever operates this location improves and makes a better experience for their customers. Doughnuts again are mediocre, but definitely are different so give them a try and see if you have a different experience. read more

I went to check out this new donut shop and the store was very nicely decorated and the staff was friendly. I like that there are several tables and chairs to sit which is not typical of donut shops. I got the Cookies and Cream, French Toast and Blueberry donuts.

If you have a super sweet tooth this will be a good place for you. read more

Parlor Doughnuts - So YUMMY!!! - Donuts Near Me - Laguna Niguel, California

While we like these doughnuts to some degree, the sugar amount was almost abusive to the tastebuds... and really overwhelming the other flavors... this was our first try so maybe they are figuring it out as it's a newly opened location. Staff were somewhat friendly, not a lot of smiles but got your food. Not a typical doughnut shape more of like a funnel cake of sorts. Incredibly messy to eat... don't plan on taking a bite in the car unless you want doughnut everywhere and be sure to grab extra napkins. They should actually offer wet wipes (like eating bbq ribs but in a doughnut). For an expensive gourmet doughnut I'm still sending my business to Sidecar or JD Flannels... read more
