Not a HUGE fan of the blueberry doughnut, but I decided to try em here after having them fresh at M&M This place, like many others pretty much use the same doughnut mix. The only reason why people lean towards M&M more is because they are 'fresh out the fryer' making them warm and bursting with oil the minute you sink your teeth into one. Like enjoy the blueberry doughnuts here better for the reason that they have had time to sit and set after being fried and all the excess oil and drip and dry leaving a cake doughnut CAKEY (as a cake doughnut should be) and not mushy with oil. Unfortunately the blueberries in these doughnuts aren't fresh blueberries, but instead packed with artificial blueberry flavor. OVERALL: This would probably be my place to go if I ever decided to have one of these again. Like I always say, YOU WON'T KNOW UNLESS YOU TRY IT FOR YOURSELF!! read more

so although my scowls for M&M Donuts remain.. [http://www.yelp.com/biz/m-and-m-donuts-anaheim#hrid:UFW4FqTvmFxg3Sum7K__OQ/src:self] ~ my curiosity for the stupid blueberry doughnut lingered in the recesses of my mind.. while perusing yelp.. saw a review for this doughnut shop around the corner from where i live.. i think this shop has been there forever~ i just never really paid much attention to it. according to yelp, they too jumped onto the bandwagon (as many other doughnut businesses have) to provide sanctuary and refuge to those who faced rejection from M&M in Anaheim. Rainbow Donuts was essentially the new place to feed the "blueberry doughnut" fanaticism.. i was tempted but dismissed the thought..... until today. today was one of those "all-fat-no-glory-i-hate-life" kind of days. on my way home from lunch with the cousin.. i swear i blinked.. and then found myself in front of Rainbow Donuts (and I was driving!) haha. There's not much visual appeal to the shop. It's in the plaza around the corner from Guppy Teahouse and totally old school looking.. even dirty looking.. which the State of California Health Rating proclaims at level B. Ordered a couple donuts and took em home. This is just about 12:30 in the afternoon.. so they weren't piping hot or smelling fresh from the oven. They just looked like donuts. So I didn't understand what the craze was... until I took my first bite. [First nibble] .. it was just eh... donut. Tastes like blueberry. Makes me think love child of a plain donut and a blueberry bagel. [Took a real bite] Hmm.. actually pretty tasty... crunchy but super soft in the middle.. it's like they fried the donut twice for the extra crisp without drying out the middle.. not bad.. i'm liking it. [Nuked the sucker for 7 sec in the mircrowave and took a small bite] O_O. ~ *eyes widen* Oh. *chew chew swallow* Oooooooh!!!... Okay so i get it. The blueberry donut (is it doughnut or donut?) is pretty darn tasty. It's just sweet enough with a kick of blueberry fruit flavor. I like it when it's just warm enough to heat up the inside bread portion ~ speckled with blueberries.. and the soft crunch of the outside that is all too familiar with your old school doughnuts. It still can't be convinced that it's worth waiting at M&Ms for. But hey~ this little donut shop in Cerritos.. does a pretty good job of making them. They had plenty and yup~ a 5 second nuke will make it just perfect. If you want to see what all the fuss is about~ I recommend coming here. Pretty tasty. The guy at the front is a little stern.. not super friendly nor welcoming but there's not much talk between donut selection and pay. Would come back if i needed a blueberry donut. Good sweet treat and local mom & pop business. read more

"Thank goodness we've found Rainbow Donuts!!!" Driving to M&M Donuts was further and waiting for our donuts took a billion times longer than just walking right into Rainbow Donuts, ordering, and walking out with delicious blueberry donuts right away.The chocolate donut is good too. The guy who works there is super nice and even threw in an extra donut for free. Don't waste your time at M&M - come here instead! You'll be happy you made the switch. read more

I was very skeptical of how the blueberry donuts might turn out, but they were really good!! I tried the regular glazed and the one with the frosting, both were to die for! The donuts is crispy on the outside but super and moist on the inside. Perfect balance. The lady was so nice and generous to give me an extra donut How long is the line on this place? None! read more

My daughter wanted some designer donuts for her birthday party and we called and spoke to AL, he was the son of the owner here. He was so open to all of Our ideas and concepts and we decided to buy the donuts for him. He made peanut butter and jelly donuts, matcha green tea donuts, Oreo donuts, Smores donuts, Blueberry surprise donuts and Macon and bacon. We served it as a donut cake and it was delicious! This is THE place for wedding favors and or donut favors! They were so accommodating and so nice... Definitely a place for customized donuts. See some pics. read more

See all

Annoyed by the crazy lines, weird hours, and aloof attitudes of the owners of M&M Donuts, I started looking around Yelp! for suggestions on a good Lakewood/Cerritos area substitute for blueberry donuts; I was led to Rainbow Donuts on more than one review. Alas, I was led astray... I came by on a random Friday afternoon. There was no chime at the door so I stood trying to get the attention of an employee (she didn't hear me because the radio was on full blast) for a full 5 minutes. I bought several of the glazed blueberry donuts, an apple crumb donut, a ham and cheese croissant, and a strawberry cream cheese croissant. (This totaled something around $8!) I was slightly skeptical of the donuts as they looks sort of dry, but I decided to give it two tries - 1) right away upon buying, 2) slightly heated up like on Yelp! reviewer suggested. Both times yielded in fails. The donut was dry (and that made it very difficult to swallow the rich dough) and had an overwhelming burnt taste and smell to it. Heating the donuts up made the glaze melt, which made the donut a little more moist, but definitely didn't improve the burnt taste/smell. The apple crumb was dry and pretty unremarkable. Both the croissants were good. The outside was flaky and buttery. The fillings were delicious. However, I wouldn't go out of my way just to have these croissants as similar may be found in donut shops all about. Sadly, there was no pot of gold at the end of this rainbow. read more

I only come here when I want blue berry donuts......which is basically every day of my life but given that donuts are "el diablo" (the devil) when you are striving to loose weight ...I ever so sadly stay away. But the minute I fit into my skinny jeans I will be back. I am not a fan of the blueberry donuts with the frosting (or whatever it is) because they are too sweet for me. But if you are into sweet then you should try it. If not then just stick the glazed blueberry donuts they are delicious! *Note CASH ONLY. Also KNOW that other people are also aware of the deliciousness of blueberry donuts so I would advise to call in advance to see if they still have some. read more

Thank you so much for always doing an outstanding job on our orders!!! The donuts were a success and delicious!!!! read more

Rainbow Donuts - Donuts Near Me - Cerritos, California

Apparently I missed out on the blueberry donut craze of 2010? Such a random yelp find! I typed in the words "blueberry" one day (I love blueberry anything) and the first thing that popped up was blueberry donuts. I didn't get a chance to try them till I stopped by Rainbow donuts on the way to dinner. I'm getting my dessert a little early. =) Blueberry donuts are 85 cents each, $4.50 for half a dozen and $8 for a dozen. It seems really popular here, since two racks were loaded with them. I didn't have the opportunity to ask the lady if they can be made fresh while I waited, or when their next baking times were. And...they were delicious! I ate one a few hours after I bought them and another one the morning after and it still tastes pretty fresh. Oh and they taste DIVINE when you warm them up in the toaster oven. The glaze is light, not too sugary. The outside is crispy and the inside is soft like moist cake. Blueberries fill your every bite. Oh me like. It is definitely a bad thing for my waistline that this place is open 24 hours. =P read more

Being a fatty that I am, I went to Rainbow Donuts to get some dessert after having dinner in the area. I picked up 3 blueberry donuts after hearing from a friend that they were damn good. It was sooooo fresh! The outside was nice and crisp with a soft cakey inside. Yes I came here for dessert, but I don't really like super sweet things. I usually only take a few bites of sweet stuff. But I downed that whole donut!!! It was so good! Not too sweet but juuuuuust right! Thanks for satisfying my dessert craving! read more

I will definitely be coming back here for these reasons: 1.) the polite old man working behind the counter just was so friendly, and nice to everyone that walked in. (It was 12 midnight, and he was very cheery) 2.) OPEN 24 HOURS! 'Nuff said about that. Late night cravings will be satisfied. 3.) there's plenty of donuts freshly made on display. You know how you can tell when they've been sitting for a while. (Especially at 24/7 spots) but that were very glossy looking, like they just got a fresh glaze or chocolate coating 4.) they have an A rating- this ain't no holly Molly donut shop from "Friday after the next" lol 5.) FINALEMENT THE PIECE DE RESISTANCE BLUEBERRIES BLUEBERRIES BLUUUUUUUBERRIES! The Blueberry Donut is freaking amazing!!!!!!!!! NOMNOMNOM I went in for a dozen, and I said I'll take one blueberry just to try it. The little old man I was telling you about earlier smiles and says "just one"? He knew I'd want more! I said "ok I'll take two then" (the one with the blueberry frosting on top is the one I got) I wish I got a whole dozen of blueberries darn it! And of course the donut the kids are forbidden from, they want it the most! Next time I'll be smart and just get all blueberries. If you are reading this review, be smart and get ALL BLUEBERRY DONUTS. You're welcome. read more

Very nice woman working. She made my breakfast sandwich fresh as ordered and the donut holes were crispy

Great specialty donuts and also the owners are very friendly and family oriented!!! I loved their cookies and cream donut!! so goood! I would definitely go there again! read more

My sister ordered donuts from here for my Baby Shower and they were amazing! The customer service was outstanding, the donuts looked and tasted incredible. The specialty donuts are worth the splurge. We ordered the Blueberry w/ glaze, Glaze, Maple & Chocolate Old Fashioned, Matcha Green Tea, Maple Bacon, S'mores and the PB & J, which was my absolute favorite, next to the Blueberry donut. Thank you Rainbow Donuts! read more

Rainbow Donuts - Rainbow Donuts made for the perfect Donut Bar for my Baby Shower! - Donuts Near Me - Cerritos, California

The donuts were standard and good. The lady was extra nice and friendly! May stop by again if I'm in the area.

Two words, BLUEBERRY DONUTS. I recently discovered Rainbow Donuts's blueberry donuts. They are amazing! They are soft and cakey with a little tiny bit of crunch from being fried. The donuts are glazed two different ways: regular glaze (like a glazed donut) and blueberry glaze (my favorite!). I've bought half a dozen on two occasions at a very good price. The best thing is that my supply of donuts lasted my about three days, and after microwaving them for 10 seconds, they taste like they were just made. I enjoy my blueberry donuts with a cup of milk and dunk them into the milk like an oreo cookie... so delicious! I am definitely coming back here again for multiple reasons: 1) It's near my house 2) Service is GREAT! (An asian lady owns the shop and is always super nice!) 3) Cheap 4) I don't have to wait two hours in line (like M&M donuts in Anaheim... and the donuts taste just as good!). Writing this review makes me hungry... I think I'll grab some yummy blueberry donuts on my way home ;) read more

Best donut place in cerritos. -Location is great -Donuts idc as long as theyre good and edible and they follow the rules & regulations in the food industry, they have an A+ rating. I worked at fast food as my first job and to get an A+ rating means a lot. -service never had a problem with that 4/5 because i wish everyone would just use natural/non gmo/organic ingredients. Im sure theyll catch on :) read more

If you want blueberry donuts (or lotto scratchers) 24 hours a day I recommend Rainbow Donuts. YES they are OPEN every hour on the hour. Ah, the infamous blueberry donut. It's cake-y with a bit of a crunch all thanks to a glaze that envelopes fruity goodness. Not too sweet which makes it perfect. I prefer it fresh but a day later and a zap in the microwave does make it a tad tastier... if that is even possible. Every time I go there I see the same lady who I have to admit is ridiculously nice. Having her serve us is seriously icing on the sweet sweet cake. Ordered a dozen donuts and she gave a complimentary chocolate glazed. Score. read more

I've tried three donut spots in the Cerritos area in a month and this spot has all kinds of donuts my family crave. The blueberry donuts and tiger tail donuts are a plus! The fellow manning the register was friendly and the prices are affordable. It's my go to donut place. read more

Fresh donuts even in the early evening with friendly service. My bf and I went with his daughter to another donut shop down the street which he stated had the best donuts when he was growing up prior to our visit here, and we both almost spit out our donuts. They were old and had a funky taste... nuff said. Came here and loved the blueberry donut (like a fried blueberry muffin)and the chocolate twisty, sugar and cake donuts. Much better... aww.. my bf was floored because this location was much better than the other. I guess it is hard when things change... read more

Ok. I woke up this morning and decided to order donuts instead of going to our local shop right up the street. This place had great reviews and awesome looking donuts so I placed my order. I ordered 17 donuts of various kinds for my family and the order arrived on time and was left at my door as I asked. No fault on Postmates for what happened here I'd like to point out. I opened the box, and there are 8 donuts in there. 8 freaking donuts out of 17!! And to top this shit off, THEY WEREN'T WHAT I ORDERED!! So, I called them. This rude AF broad answers and tells me, after I explained the situation, that the ones I ordered were out so they just threw whatever in the box. I told her that is not ok and not what she should have done and to have someone bring my remaining order or refund the FORTY SEVEN dollars they charged me. She straight said no told me the lady who put the donuts in the box left and hung up on me. I called back and they wouldn't answer. I'm assuming caller ID is a feature on their phone I called from a different number and they surprised the heck out of me and answered. Sarcasm. I repeated my issue and told her I'd at least like to get the nine I was owed and of which I like the flavor and this (insert exploitive here) literally told me "next time come in and pick and count them yourself", and hung up on me again. I called my bank to stop charges and the dude I spoke with used to work in the restaurant industry and was literally speechless. I thought I'd lost connection but he just didn't know what to say. The attitude alone is grounds for an employee being fired. And she should be fired immediately. I'll never go here and I'll tell everyone I know and then some how they treat their paying customers. I am soon to file a claim once charges post and get my money back. Not only that but they sent donuts with nuts in them which my son is deathly allergic to and the whopping eight we got were all then contaminated which in turn means, I'm contacting a lawyer. Not only THAT, YES!! THERE'S MORE, this bitch went back into their system, without authorization, behind my back, and charged me AGAIN!!!! ten more dollars. 57 flipping bucks for 8 donuts I didn't order that could kill my kid. Fuck this place. I would go in but I don't need to catch a charge for some donuts. she should be very happy I handled this diplomatically. I'll let you know how the lawsuit plays out. read more

For those who hate waiting in the ridiculous line @ M&M donuts for the blueberry donuts, just COME HERE. It absolutely tastes the same, and you wait around 3 seconds for the man to put some in a bag, and 6 seconds to pay. So you're waiting 10 seconds for blueberry donuts. The sprinkled frosted donut is also pretty good, just noting! Went there around 1am and there's no one there except the man that works there. And some random people getting donuts late at night. The inside looks 'blah' but it's a freaking donut store...what do you expect right? This is my stop for donuts, esp for blueberry ones. No more M&M donuts for me, unless I want to spend 2-3 hours of my precious time doing absolutely nothing! read more

if you want blueberry donuts without waiting 2 hours come here!!! If you're reading this review then you've probably at least contemplated going to M+M. Just nuke the blueberry donuts, it's the same thing! open 24/7, plenty of parking read more

This is the place to go for a donut run. Even in the middle of the night- open 24 hours. Outside: The sign doesn't really say 'Rainbow Donuts'. There is a picture of a rainbow, and underneath, the word 'rainbow'. So I always knew it as 'Donut Deli', which is essentially the signage out front. Parking is a breeze. Service: - Great service. I always call in to see what's fresh, & the workers are nice enough to give info on what's coming out & what is fresh. - I've spoken to 3 different people: a lady, an older man, & a younger worker. All have been great about suggestions & giving me more than what I paid for. - Older man is funnier than I thought he'd be. Joking around, even in the middle of the night when some people would be bored or tired. Talked me into buying an extra donut, but really gave it to me for a quarter. - I was called back by the younger worker so he could give me a blueberry donut to try (said I wouldn't have room for the blueberry one and declined to buy it, & I guess as a 2nd thought, he decided just to give me one). - The lady gave me a sample of the cruller, which tasted kind of like those long Chinese breakfast 'donuts', but kind of soggy on the inside. It was dusted w/sugar, crunchy on the outside, and soft, almost soggy on the inside. It was really nice of them to be personable and willing to give samples. Donuts: - That blueberry one was great. I'm really happy the worker chased me w/a sample since now, I'm sure to get one every time I go. - Other donuts: solid. Nothing bad to say. My friends and I actually did a taste test of glazed, buttermilk, and old fashioned for 4 different places (B&B, Granny's, Rainbow, & US). Rainbow won ever test. read more

I was craving a breakfast burrito so I figured, why not stop here? It was my first time trying the burrito and it one of the tastiest breakfast burritos I've ever had. All of the ingredients were perfectly balanced. It's not like all of the other places where they fill the whole burrito up with just eggs and hash browns with a smudge of sausage. This place has the perfect balance of eggs, hash browns, sausage, ham, cheese, and they top it off with their own secret sauce ! Put a little bit of fresh salsa on it and you got yourself the perfect burrito ! read more

I stopped by to get a treat for my employees for Administrative Professionals Day. I purchased a ton of donuts and the service and selection was awesome. I will definitely be back! read more

Finally, a 24-hour place to study. Owners are friendly & the donuts are delicious. The maple donuts almost have a hint of ginger to them.

Eh.... we saw this place on the way home, after dinner and decided to give it a try. We ordered a mactha donut, 2 glaze, 1 crumb and 1 sprinkle. The Matcha donut was very disappointing, it doesn't stand a chance when compared to Seaside Bakery in Newport Beach. The glaze donut had a weird citrusy flavor, not sure why. The sprinkle donut was average and we didnt bother to try the crumb. This place is just ok. read more

The 5 stars is for the Blueberry Donuts. It is a MUST TRY! Still tastes good even when it's not hot off the oven. The outside is slightly cripsy, but the inside is soft and fluffy. The ham & cheese croissant is good, but not different from other places, except maybe for the added jalepenos. There is no ridiculous line like M&M Donuts. read more

Been coming here since I was a little kid! Love this place and the fam who owns it is awesome -- the mom is sweet. Especially love the new flavors/creations they've been introducing recently blueberry cake, matcha green tea, tiger tails etc. Keep them coming! read more

The best donuts I've ever had! The dough they use here is very high quality, cooked to perfection and fresh tasting with just right amount of oil and sugar. My go-to's are the apple fritters, chocolate bars, glazed twists and...oh heck! They're all good to me! Coffee too! Only giving 4 stars because they refuse to fix their soda machine :( Update: One day I went in the owner was their and I asked her why their donuts were so dang good. She told me they are the only place in the area that changes out the oil they cook their donuts in daily which creates a fresh taste. I told her she won my default donut choice! read more

I only go here for the blueberry donuts and they're great! I decided to write them a review because I went last night at around 10 pm and the man working behind the corner told me to give him a minute because he was making some fresh blueberry donuts. When they finally came out they were delicious! They were so warm and soft that the donut would almost crumble in my hand. Great place for blueberry donuts and you can also pick up your lotteries here. read more

Well, I always thought Krispy Kreme has the best tasting donut. I was wrong. Try the blueberry donut here. Is amazingly good. Crunchy outer crust, not too sweet and you can taste the blueberry every bite. Although is probably every bit as unhealthy as any other donuts. At least this one you'll get a little bit of fruit in your system. Wishful thinking maybe? On a side note, the tiger tails is good too but nowhere near the blueberry donut good. read more

I must say this place has the best cruelers I've ever had. At midnight they're hot and fresh and crispy on the outside and perfectly moist in the middle. read more
