My 1st impression of this new location is in 1-Word: Excellent! We arrived for the Grand Opening, and were left quite impressed, especially because: we were attended to very quickly (a 5 mt wait in-line), despite being caught in a long line!!! The staff behind-the-counter works so quickly and in a greatly coordinated manner that made this all possible: one person takes the orders, picks them out & hands it over to the register who charges, meanwhile another (if needed) is watching close-by to grab any last minute items. It's like your dealing with 1 nice unit. The inside of the shop is tiny, but very accommodating with AC, a few sit-in-tables/benches, a small coffee bar, nice wall mural decor of randy's/la times history, and a bathroom. Great place to stop-by, sit-in and enjoy chatting with friends/fam over a quick bite of a donut with/without a nice drink. And what makes for a bonus is: they are super Nice!!! I arrived with my dad, and we both received the Grand Opening special (a free glazed donut & iced coffee), since we were, "customers" without any doubt/hesitation. It may not all make sense, but, recalling an incident at the Randy's location in Inglewood, in which the employee denied my mom and I that same promo, and a manager had to be called-in, in comparison to this, says, A LOT! Excellent service! Both in & at the drive-thru (which is available; and although we didn't make use of it in this visit, we still observed how fast cars were coming-&-going) And last, but not least, the donuts. The donuts are the same fine-quality donuts that Randy's is known for. They had fresh batches ready for the donuts on display that had been sold away before. (And the fresh iced coffee was nice & refreshing--roasted perfectly & not over-filled with ice) Overall, we are very satisfied and look forward to coming back more to this new location (that's thankfully closer to home, too!) read more

I usually really love donuts but these were not it. They lacked freshness and were too hard. The best one of the 4 we got were def the cronut because it was softer than all the others. read more

I cant even tell you how happy i was to see this opening in Downey! I'm from the Southbay so i was a frequent visiter of the OG location growing up! The Downey location is just as GOOD! Tastes just like the OG... The donuts were super fresh... The Grand Opening was just that, a Grand Opening. So people complaining about the long lines obviously dont understand what an opening day brings... LOL Thank you Randys for opening in my new neighborhood! You did not disappoint! read more

Stale, expensive donuts. Ordered a dozen donuts and was really excited about trying them. Got home and soon realized they were stale and even crunchy. Needless to say I will not be returning. Safe your money or better yet go to Dunkin' down the street. read more

This location is very new and has some growing pains that go with it. I'm sure the owners had an idea it would be popular but not this much. Things that need to be addressed: 1. The parking lot and drive thru grid lock. If you manage to get into the lot and park in a stall, great, but getting out will take some time especially if the line for the drive thru is out into Firestone Blvd. blocking traffic. 2. The donut quality. I went there twice already and tried some varieties. The blueberry iced cake donut was great as was the devil's food cake. The cruller donuts are pretty much like others I have had albeit these were a bit more greasy. The old fashioned buttermilk bar was fresh and well cooked but very tough to bite into. The red jelly donut, since the flavor was more like cherry flavored cough medicine. This was a let down. 3. Staff is friendly and hurried to try and keep up with the crowds. It's not their fault if they appear rude as they are trying to get used to the amount of crowds. I don't want to give any stars yet as this Randy's is too new to make a fair revue. I'll return at a later time to see if they worked out the minor issues. But yelp is making me put some stars. read more

In my opinion, the donuts were okay. I feel like they can improve the icing on certain donuts. The maple cake donut had a weird flavor to it. The orange iced cake donut was similar to a hostess orange cupcake. The chocolate raised ring and the chocolate long john were soft and fresh. The apple fritter was good and the cinnamon roll was good as well but it kind of lacked the cinnamon flavor. The glazed and blueberry cake donut were good. The blueberry cake donut reminded me of a blueberry muffin. The drive-thru line is pretty long but the staff are friendly. They should have a better way of handling drive-thru orders so the line could be quicker. For example, having someone outside taking orders or having a slip of paper with the donuts listed and having the customers circle the ones they want with their name on it. read more

Randy's Donuts - Mixed Variety of donuts. - Donuts Near Me - Downey, California

Love this place, but there is so much to be gained from the drive thru. When you get to the drive thru, the first thing you're told to do is wait. Meanwhile, there is only one car at the window at all times. Once they are done with that car, then they take your order. I've gone at least 10 times through drive through to this location, and it never fails each time for them to take 5 min per car for just a few donuts on order. Meanwhile, the line accumulated before getting your order taken, and there is a huge line in drive thru. The employees aren't as friendly either. read more

Really bummed about their service twice. Gave them a second chance after a few months and they gave me the wrong order. Again. Sitting in the drive thru line for 12 minutes just to get wrong donuts sucks. It's not even worth going back to get it corrected. I still think the original location is better. Maybe since the original location serves more so the donuts tastes fresher and this location sits on the donuts longer so it doesn't seem as fresh. IMO. I'll stick to the original location for a Randy's fix. read more

Randy's Donuts - Glazed and fritters are solid. I asked for two chocolate raised/glazed. They gave me two chocolate cake. Booo - Donuts Near Me - Downey, California

This last experience was the last straw for me. The employees at the Downey location severely lack common sense. You go to any donut shop and ask for a ham and cheese croissant and they'll heat it up for you. Not this location! They'll serve it to you iced cold unless you explicitly state it needs to be heated. If you order online, there's no option to ask for it heated so you have to write it under customer notes and 9 times out of 10 they flat out ignore it because somehow doing an additional 30 seconds of work by throwing it in the toaster is SO SO SO INCONVENIENT AND HARD apparently. Even the donuts are ice cold most of the time. So you mean to tell me it took 17 minutes for my order to be ready after ordering it just for it to be served half assed out of the fridge???? It's so depressing to see this location be so poor when a few years ago it thrived. Now I see why it's always empty. Zero care put into product or customer experience. read more

Honestly was wondering what all the hype was about since I'm a big fan of donuts in general. The convenience of it being open 24 hours makes it hard to beat. But aside from having great donuts, they provide excellent customer service. They messed up our order today, but they more than made up for it and surprised my family and I with how quickly they took action and the fact that you can tell they cared made me want to write this review. A big fan of this new addition to Downeys already long list of options for great food. Would highly recommend. Their croissants are amazing as well. read more

I was driving by Randy's Donuts on a weekday morning, and decided to try it as I am not usually in Downey. After some circumspection, I decided to try the Apple Fritter, chocolate frosted, and churro donut. The chocolate frosted was pretty good, as so liked the fact that chocolate was a little bit darker. The churro donut was complicated to eat, as the cream on top was quite messy. The Apple Fritter was the best of the bunch, as it was moist, a little crunchy, and not too sweet. The three donuts came out to over $7, so the price point was a little high. read more

I've never tried Randy's donuts before and when I saw this location opening, I had my chance! If course it being opening day the line for the drive thru was long and moved kinda slow. There were a couple of parking spots available in the lot but I had already committed to the drive thru. I also saw people parking on the residential street. The line inside seemed to move faster than the drive thru also. I got a mixed dozen which included classics, fancies, and premium donuts. The donuts were really good. I especially liked the roasted coconut. The M&M and apple fritter were also really good. I took the box back to work and needless to say I couldn't even snap a pic of the donuts as people rushed to get a taste. read more

Ok I ordered a glaze twist and ham And cheese croissant. The donut was overcooked-and the croissant was nasty and thrown together. I was super disappointed and wished I went To chic fil A like I originally planned. Yuck. read more

I never had Randy's donut but everyone from work always talkin about how great their donuts. Until today, i came across one for the first time and took a pit stop. Anyway, came home and found my dozen of donut to be exactly 11. I felt so bummed out without even tryin to eat one so my dad told me to leave them a message that their people mite want to check how many they have in the box before givin it out to customers. After writing them a message, Owner responded to me in no time and will send me a gc for the inconvenience. Imagine how fast and grateful they r towards their customers. I didnt expect them to replaced my missing donut but the gesture and care they have to their customers says A LOT. read more

I wanted some Halloween donuts for my team. I called at 6am to make sure they had some. The person who answered the phone was so nice and helpful. I came thru the drive thru, ordered 2 dozen. Again, friendly and helpful service. The donuts were AMAZING! By far some of the best donuts I've ever had. (I've ate 2 so far!" Good job! read more

Randy's Donuts - Donuts Near Me - Downey, California

Picture this: you're driving to work. You wanna surprise your colleagues with a little something special. Last month, your coworker brought Dunkin, but you're trying to elevate the game a bit. You stop by the beautiful donut in the sky, snap a quick insta pic, pick up a dozen of whatever floats your boat, and suddenly you're the most popular guy at work.. or something like that. Listen, I don't have high expectations for a 1$ donut. But Randy's really knows how to do it right. The service is always great. Everyone is always so nice. Theres just so many to choose from, and they're all delicious. But I'm a simple guy, and I always come back to the glazed buttermilk. It's just that perfect combo of fluffy cake donut magic that always hits the spot. But really you can't go wrong no matter what. And the icing on the donut is now they've got espresso drinks too! Latte, cappuccino, whatever. And we're talking good enough to get a pass from your uppity coffee snob Silverlake friend who only drinks intelligentsia. read more

I just left the drive thru at 8:10 am on Monday 2/27 the window guy gave me two food items and when I asked for napkins he said "you need napkins" like if I was crazy for asking ..rude and disrespectful read more

I don't know what's going on with the service at this location or if I stopped by on an off day. This is the first location where I've ordered my usual half a dozen (3 glazed raised and 3 chocolate raised) and I get them in a bag instead of a small box. If they were short on supplies I would have understood, but there was no explanation. Donuts are still great but as I pull them out of the bag, the chocolate glaze is coming off. read more

Randy's Donuts - Ordered 3 Glazed Raised Donuts + 3 Chocolate Raised Donuts but the receipt marked them all as Glazed and they threw them in a bag. - Donuts Near Me - Downey, California

2022 and they still don't have donuts, everything is sold out, always, weak.

Ordered on ubereats. Donuts were stale. Hard and dry. Usually their much better. Had to throw them away

I've never really had a good experience at this location. I was super excited when they came to Downey and couldn't wait to visit the location. I thought I would be a regular since I love donuts, but I've been nothing but disappointed very time. Given them several try's, hopping to change my mind, but unfortunately they have been consistent in letting me down. The coffee is not good, hot or cold. The doughnuts always have an oily after taste. And the service is a C / D ratting. To bad, so sad. read more

Been passing this place for years and today my sister and i finally decided to go. WOW. The customer service in the drive through was so good. The workers there were very kind and went as far to compliment my pup too. The donut glazed donut holes were FAT and delicious! Looks like we might make more donut runs in the future. read more

Donuts are average but what really annoys me is how cheap the boxes are. Paying over $30 for a dozen donuts and the box is too cheap to keep the product in place is not acceptable. The box falls apart immediately. The $7 donut holes come in a brown paper bag, same as a childs lunch. You can't charge a premier and not have premier presentation. read more

Doughnuts and service are always great here. The only reason I'm giving a 4 star is because their boxes in which they give you your doughnuts SUCK! Yes I know it's silly that I'm reviewing their boxes lol. These boxes are so flimsy and weak, if you don't hold the box from the center it will sag. But if you hold it from the center is will sag from the sides. They need to come up with a better box, don't want to have an accident and have all the doughnuts fall out. read more

$4.68 for this small iced coffee haha , never again and the taste is not all that . Ill just stick to you're donuts . read more

Randy'a donuts has been my favorite donut spot in Downey for years! Love this place! Looking for a good simple carbs for a pre-workout pump? Come here and order a dozen to share with friends and family! You'll love it!! read more

Donuts are delicious, love the variety and the quality is top notch. Prices are OK, everythings expensive these days. Overall I recommend for top tier donuts. Only complaint is that they have very limited options in the evening/night but they're open 24hrs a day. Why be open 24hrs a day but run out of half the donuts after 7pm, doesn't make sense... read more

This will be quick and easy Was there a line? Yes Did it take longer than most quickie doughnut places? Yes Do they have the best original glaze doughnut in Los Angeles? Yes Yes Yes Is it worth the wait? Absolutely. I don't get the fancy doughnuts, and why would I? Stick to the hero and you won't be disappointed. read more

This drive-through donut place is the bomb! Their quality is great no matter which location I visit! They're even good one or two days later if you keep them in Ziploc bags. We got a dozen of the premium donuts for about $20. My friend enjoyed their coffee and they were willing to give us six sugars and creamers to go with it! My favorites are the Apple fritters, but I tried the lemon filled and that was pretty tasty! read more

Randy's is a SoCal institution that has expanded exponentially beyond their original location in recent years. It's perhaps not well known how donut obsessed Southern Californians are. Randy's has historically been one of the best in the business and certainly the most consistent. They experiment with a few new flavors on occasion, but their standbys are truly special. The texas glazed is the size of your head with all the sweet, sticky goodness you'd expect. Their long johns are soft cushions covered with a thick layer of chocolate or maple. I really like the butter crumb donut. The cherry cake donut is my wife's favorite. Ultimately you can't really go wrong, although I will say their raised donuts are better than the cake donuts in my humble opinion. They're well sized, affordable and fast. This is CA donut culture in a nutshell. read more

Over rated. Everything is pretty much a glaze donut with sugar on top of sugar. It's a donut tho.

My hot coffee was nasty and tasted burnt. They gave the last of the coffee pot. I dumped it out. I don't think I'm going back here again. Had to go somewhere else to get a hot coffee. read more

I'm sorry but it is not all that they are hyped up to be. Slow service, server gave me the wrong donuts but did not notice till I got home. The coffee tasted stale and it had coffee grounds in it, so it was the last of it. The server should automatically make a new pot and serve that instead of the old coffee. Finally, the donuts were not fresh. They are not like the original Randy's in Ingewood. I'm sorry, but I'm not returning. Yum Yum on Florence and Old River School Rd is better to me. read more

The service at the late night drive-through was exceptionally good. Thank you to the young woman working on Saturday, October 8 at 12:10 AM, for one of the nicest, most helpful customer service experiences in a long time! read more

Thank you making things right and standing behind your business. Great customer service.

I've been to this location twice since it has opened. Each time the line went as quickly as possible and customer service was exceptional. They really make sure they get your order down right .I was initially concerned that the taste wouldn't be the same but it's the same Randy's donuts ! but definitely without the hassle of the Inglewood location. So thankful for this location opening read more
