Best donuts in town!!! The service is absolutely amazing. The ladies always remember us and are very welcoming. The shop is clean and they sell the lotto for all you enthusiasts. Now as for the donuts. The bread is soo soft it literally melts in every bite. Chocolate is my favorite and they have the flavor down perfectly. Everything is soo fresh and delicious! read more

Rude people! Rude customer service! Will let all my co workers to not come here! Snatches money from my hand then throws change at me! Unbelievable ! Be nice to people first of all and be nice to the people that are coming to your business! Plenty of other donut shops around that will be happy to have you! Not this business! Stay away!!! read more

Located in the same plaza as CVS this donut shop makes fresh donuts daily. I like coming here to get donuts as my favorites are Boston crème and old fashioned. The cream was fresh tasting and not too sweet balanced the nice chocolate on top. My old fashioned was coated with sugar well and quite doughy center which I like. Both of these cost $3.75 not too bad. The owner was friendly and gave good suggestions. It's too bad that the only downside of coming here is that there are several people "loitering" or "camping" outside which can be intimidating while going into the store. But I've noticed these people don't bother you so if you look like you know what you are doing then it's safe. Overall still a good place to get freshly made donuts. Plus they stay open late too! read more

Rainbow Donuts - Donuts Near Me - Riverside, California

I come here about once every two months to get a dozen donuts and I have never had any problem with the service, quality or taste. They tend to the customers very quickly and are very efficient at the cash register. They have a very big following in selling the lottery tickets here; I know people that just go in to get lottery tickets. read more

Buyer beware! Rainbow Donuts has roaches in their prep area and do not wash their hands. It is very dangerous to eat anything from their locations. I saw the lady pick something from her teeth then wipe it on her shirt and did not wash her hands before grabbing donuts for the customer. We left after witnessing this disgusting behavior. You have been warned. We are calling them Dirty Donuts from now on! Plenty of other respectable places in town!! read more

this establishment has been blessed by the donut gods. every time i go the donuts are so fresh and soft it makes me cry. Pro tip- microwave the glaze donuts for 10 seconds and they taste like hot Krispy Kreme glaze donuts but better read more

The cinnamon roll and hot chocolate were fine. It was the service that was beyond horrible. There was no eye contact. When she gave me my hot chocolate, she slammed it on the counter and I jumped back. As I gave her the $10 bill, she snatched it. After she gave me my change she said my total was 5.65, but never looking at me and walking away. She didn't even say thank you. I was speechless from beginning to end. It was my first and last time there. If you don't mind rudeness, you'll do fine. read more

Get the ham and cheese! It's soo good. Donuts are good, avg shop Cash ONLY read more

Rainbow Donuts - I don't know what this is but it looks good - Donuts Near Me - Riverside, California

Is there a way that donuts can be juicy? Because I swear to God, that was one juicy donut. I visited Rainbow Donuts this morning and was greeted with an array of fresh, beautiful pastries, all priced very well. I bought a cream filled donut, maple bar, and a chocolate coconut donut. The maple bar was, by far, the best, especially warmed up. The cream filled wasy least favorite, but I had eaten two other donuts by then, so that's probably why. I had to take cash out with the ATM, since it was cash only, and it charges a $2 fee, so be warned for your next visit here. Lovely shop owners and great treats. read more

Literally the best donut in Riverside! Always fresh and yummy. The lady is so nice and you can tell she's humble and hardworking. Always give me free donut with my order. read more

Will not go to this place again. They are very rude. I always allow my boys to order their own donuts and they just ignore them. Seriously, have some respect. Also not sure how they have a A rating. read more

Located in a big strip mall this place is easy to overlook. It does seem to have a bit of a following though. The crumb donut is light, airy and not at all greasy. The crumb topping is a little bitter, maybe due to too much cinnamon. The crumb is not very sweet as light brown sugar tones done the amount of sweetness. The donut could be improved by having the crumb topping on the top and bottom of the donut instead of just the top. Also less cinnamon would help to cut down the astrigency of the donut. The chocolate buttermilk bar is gigantic. This could easily be cut in half and made into a morning and afternoon snack. The donut has a hint of tang from the buttermilk but is rather dry inside. There are pockets of moisture within the donut but those are few and far between. The chocolate, while a generous amount, is cloyingly sweet when eaten on its own. Chocolate is the first thing to hit your palate but then a burst of pure sugar follows like a tidal wave. The Bavarian Cream chocolate donut is a jelly donut with a vanilla custard filling. As with the chocolate buttermilk bar, the chocolate glaze is cloyingly sweet. The donut is soft, airy and moist. The custard has an "industrial" tasting vanilla custard that isn't too sweet but doesn't taste home made either. Overall, this is a pretty good donut. I got these donuts in the afternoon, so they certainly weren't at their freshest, which would probably be early morning. Tasting these again fresh out of the fryer may yield a different opinion. read more

If I could rate this place NO stars I would unfortunately that's not option. All I have to say is this place cant possibly be rated a letter A if I found a thick and long piece of hair baked into by donut! Never again will I come here. read more

Rainbow Donuts - a hand holding a glazed donut - Donuts Near Me - Riverside, California

See all

You have to try the HAM & Cheese or the Jalepeno Ham & Cheese Crossaints!!! They make it periodically in the morning and if you are lucky you might get yours 10 mins out of the oven...Piping HOT, LIGHT CRISP and FLAKY on the outside and then indulge in the melted cheese ooozing out as you take your first bite! But hey, if you get em later when they are cooled down, just have them pop em in the microwave and WHALLAH...mouthwatering happiness :) read more

Really ! It's 8am on Saturday morning and they don't have croissants. That's why I hate coming here! Next time I'll just make the extra drive to another donut shop! read more

Okay, since I'm the duke here I feel I should write an update. There is a decent selection of basic donuts in the morning (and the freshest). I typically get either their jam filled, custard filled or their chocolate twist donuts. They are pretty good and cheap. Just a typical donut shop run by a nice Asian couple. read more

Arrived at this donut shop around 9am last Monday morning and I was completely disappointed. Donuts looked fresh and tasty, but I got quite a few that weren't fully baked. I'd bite into them trying to give them a second chance but every bite felt gooey and not so great. To top it off the lady that helped me that morning was wasn't very friendly at all and their prices are pretty expensive compared to other donut shops in the area who taste a lot better. For example, American Donuts Shop on Van Buren Avenue is a great shop! Price is good, customer service is great, and they always give away extra food and drinks especially if they see kids. Wonderful people. read more

Showed up here kind of late on a Monday evening, I was surprised to see that they were still open as it was after 5:00pm. I don't come here very often, so I completely forgot that they do not take credit cards. I had ordered 6 donuts, got to the counter and felt like a complete idiot because I didn't have any cash on me. The lady was sooo nice, she said don't worry about it, just bring it in next time. To top it off, I got home, and she had put an extra two donuts in the box! Now that's excellent customer service. I will definitely be returning WITH CASH this time, to pay for the donuts and I highly recommend them to anyone in the area. The donuts are great, the people are fantastic, and it's conveniently located very close to home. read more

Horrible service extremely rude staff. Almost every time I go there I get a milk that has been expired.

The best doughnuts ever! No greasy after taste. Too bad they don't make the cream filled puffs, I bet they'd be off the hook! The French crueller is my favorite since it's not too sweet. Come by early for the best selection. read more

Yummy and Fresh Donuts. The best part is I can run in and buy a dozen donuts and run out because they are fast. Conveniently located at the corner of La Sierra and Indiana. read more

I like coming to this place. There's a group of old guys that like to chill here everyday. Their own little kick-it spot I guess. They're all nice though. The donuts here are fresh(as they should be) each morning. The family that owns this store are extremely nice. The crumb and glaze donuts, croissants, and bear claws are big and delicious! Prices are very reasonable and if you're extra nice to them they'll probably make it a baker's dozen! = ) read more

Delicious doughnuts. Service was good, and my coworkers loved the doughnuts. I can't ask for any more than that!

Terrible attitude. I've been to Rainbow Donuts 3 times because it's the closest donut shop near me. Every time I've gone there, the same woman has a crappy attitude. Very unfriendly, doesn't care to look at you and is very short with you. It's like she can't wait for you to leave. I'll drive further from now on just to give someone else my business. And who doesn't have donut holes in the morning?! read more

The jalapeno ham and cheese croissant is absolutely fantastic here! The service is terrific and the place is really clean. This is a great place to get a snack when you are in the area. read more

My wife went there last Sunday at 630 am and as she got out she watches a woman carry in numerous boxes of donuts from another shop... I should say they were quite less than fresh. read more

pretty good donuts but I don't like that they only take cash.. but I guess any good donut place only takes cash... $7/8 for a dozen donuts.
