I suggest the mango tajin donut it's bomb!!!! And the service nice and friendly, thanks Louie.

I love the cronut here. It's so flaky and I love the glaze on top. The other donuts are pretty standard.

First time trying Randy's and these donuts were disappointing. They were just waaayyyy too greasy.

RUDE! Came in with my boyfriend to buy a dozen donuts as a sweet treat, and we were trying to figure out the pricing. It was a younger man and older man working and we waited while the younger man was helping someone else. The older guy came from the back to help us and we asked how much a dozen is he responded "it just depends" and pointed to the TV menu. We proceeded to ask if he could just tell us how much each individual donut was going to be. He seemed annoyed and had an attitude that he didn't want to be bothered. Then the younger worker came to tell him that they were out of something and the older guy just walked away. Honestly, if you are expecting simple, courteous customer service do not come here and do not waste your money. There were also numerous flies flying around the place. We ended up walking out. Went down to Susie Cakes a few stores down instead! read more

There's a lot of donut places on Lake Ave but of course I gotta go to this one ;0) it's the best and world famous!! The employees are so friendly and fun! I purchased half a dozen donuts for $18. Plenty of parking on Saturday morning in the back. Got the flavors: Apple Fritter, Bear Claw, Cinnamon Bun, Blueberry Ice Glaze, Matcha, and Red Velvet. So delicious!!! read more

I've wanted to try Randy's for so long now, but we haven't got a chance to go to the original location. This will have to do for now. This store is very narrow and there's barely any room for people to walk different directions. The most annoying thing is that many people use this shop to cut through to go to the parking lot. Back to the donuts. The donuts are scrumptious. The bear claw is delicious, but too filling. Go there with an empty stomach. These donuts are a meal in itself. All the donuts were delicious. I hope to go to the original location and see that giant Donut that you see in all the movies in person. read more

Randy's Donuts never disappoints. If I'm ever in the vicinity of South Lake Avenue, you know I'll be stopping by for my guilty pleasure. Surely, this is a very smallish-sized store, but they manage to crank out the goods very efficiently. I would say, the way the store is configured, it is best to enter from the parking lot in the back, not from Lake Ave (unless it's not busy). You'll have a chance to see the donuts and choose your fav(s) a lot better. Plus, you won't be awkwardly going against the flow of traffic and getting in people's way as they are trying to pay etc. Prices range from $3.00 on up/each and you could also get combos for a fixed price. Service here has always been consistent, they do it fast and they do it well! I've been to two other locations (OC and Torrance) and their level-of-service and selection remains the same. read more

I didn't go to the original, but honestly -- doesn't matter. The Pasadena spot was great. The donuts are exactly what you want them to be: no gimmicks, just really good. The glazed was light and warm, the maple bar hit the spot, and the chocolate old fashioned was somehow better than I expected. There's just nothing else like Randy's. It's simple, but done right. And that's kind of the magic. read more

I was craving donuts on a rainy day so I decided to check out Randy's for the first time. Boy they did not disappoint! I'm obsessed with their maple raised donuts. I will say it can be a bit pricey for about $25 to $30 per box depending on the flavors you get, but I think it's worth it. Parking in the area is pretty doable. There's street parking for a quick pick up and some parking garages nearby. read more

Love their donuts (especially the glazed Crondy) and their reasonably priced breakfast burritos. So glad they put a location here in Pasadena! read more

I have never heard of Randy's Donuts until earlier this month. I have been to Randy's 3 times now LOL. Hey, when I hit the jackpot on something good, I'm a lifetime customer. My first visit took longer than expected because I was fascinated by the long view of the donut shop with ton's of wall and picture arts... so yes, I was taking pictures before deciding on the donuts. Staff was really really nice and patient with me. Service was quick. Thank you! I asked them for their most popular donuts. They were delighted to provide them. I think I got them all on my 1st visit LOL. They categorize their donuts into 4 types... classic ($1.95), deluxe ($2.25), fancy ($2.75), and premium ($3.75). You may get your donuts individually or by the dozen. They have predesigned mixed dozen with different types that makes it easy for the customers or you can pick and choose your preferred donuts. Either way, they give $2 discount off any dozen... still a win win! For my 1st visit, I went with the deluxe dozen. There were a couple donuts I didn't care for from the batch so I asked if I could switch them out for a couple fancies and the manager was kind enough to accommodate... thank you so much! Funny, the ones I switched out were the ones that ended up to be one of my favorites... go figure! LOL Anyway, below are the donuts that made my A-List and B-List. As for the donuts not mentioned (see picture), I didn't eat them so I can't provide my feedback for them, but they look good though. A-List: 1. Butter Crumb Raised - This is my favorite! Donut was soft. Sweetness was on point. JUST SO GOOD! 2. Glazed Crondy - I really enjoyed the inside texture... it reminds me of a Chinese donut with an American twist. However, it's way too sweet for me. If they would tone down the sweetness, it would be a perfect crondy! 3. Lemon and Glazed Old Fashioned - Just the right crunch on the outside and tenderness on the inside... amazing! B-List: 1. Glazed Twist - This is my all-time favorite donut, but unfortunately, not from here. Donut was way too dense for a twist. 2. Cinnamon Crumb Cake - Good, but a tad dry IMHO. Now for my 2nd visit, I knew what I wanted to get again and what I wanted to try so I went with the predesigned mixed dozen that had 3 of each type. Blueberry Iced Cake, Blueberry Cake, and Nutella Raised made my A-List hands down... OMG... just so divinely yummy! Cinnamon Toast Crunch Raised, Bear Claw, and Chocolate Crondy made my B-List... interesting concoction and different flavors, but good overall with the exception of too much sweetness in the crondy. As for my 3rd visit, I stuck with my preferred choice of donuts (I should know by now, right? LOL)... my Butter Crumb Raised, both of the blueberry cakes, and both of the old fashioneds. So there you have it... my fun Randy's donuts adventures in the month of August. By the way, they have paid parking on the street in front of shop and in the back parking lot. I will definitely return to get my favorite Randy's whenever I'm in the Pasadena area. Go get your Randy's and be happy with your Randy's! P.S. I found out the original Randy's is still whipping out donuts. I'll have to make it out to Inglewood one of these days and get a selfie with the big O donut and wheat + honey donut (per staff recommendation) LOL. You know I will make it happen! read more

This Randy's Donuts can be found on Lake Ave, next door to Five Guys with outdoor seating available. This particular location opened towards the end of 2020. I came by this location with my husband last Friday, around 7:35 pm. When we arrived, we were not greeted and were never acknowledged. After the 2 people ahead of us had paid for their purchase, we were just waiting around for the 2 employees behind the counter to acknowledge us. They were just having a personal conversation between themselves. So we waited for at least 5 minutes and asked if someone could help us. Honestly we should have walked out because that was just rude. Because while we were making our order, one of the employees acknowledged this older couple coming in and said "Welcome" and "let me know whenever you are ready to order"... but yet we never got that. I ended up purchasing: Matcha Tea Raised Donut, $3.75- This donut was actually pretty good, even the day after when I consumed it (I only took a small bite the evening of). I think I would love to try this donut again but probably at another location where I would hope I would get better service. Honestly, our experience could have been better, thus my 2 star rating. I don't see myself ever coming back to this location. read more

A neighborhood feeling. You could closed your eyes and imagine you have been there a million times. Super chill and friendly employee. I was satisfied with my glazed donut. It was unbelievable fresh. Fresh, fresh, fresh. This location is within a short walk of many restaurants including (but not limited to) Chipotle, Mendocino farms, Ono Hawaiian BBQ, Urbane Cafe, Panda Express, Veggie Grill, Jamba, and that's only on this side of the street. Putting it in your path if you want something sweet after something savory. Hit just right, I'll be back for the Randy's experience (and maybe a mug). read more

Omg! I tried this for the first time today and it's my absolute favorite donut shop now. I got their matcha tea raised donut, their cherry glazed donut collab with CALPAK and the red velvet. The red velvet was so good. It felt like I was eating a cross between cake and donut. Each of my donuts was around $4 because it was a premium selection. I love this place and I am so happy that it's literally down the street from my gym. I'm going to go back and try all their seasonal flavors. read more

I do prefer the character & originality of the Inglewood location, plus it's become somewhat of an unofficial tradition to make a pit stop just before heading back to LAX. However, after having dinner in the area recently, my friend (a local Angeleno) & I took the opportunity to check out the Pasadena outpost of Randy's Donuts which opened in late 2020. We came in about an hour before closing & they were already out of a few flavors. I didn't see the buttermilk bar I usually get so I went for a maple raised & a glazed raised, both soft & fresh. My friend bought a handful of sprinkle donuts including a giant pink one reminiscent of the donut available for purchase at the Simpson's area in Universal Studios. My friend & I agreed, Randy's won't be our go-to dessert spot after dinner in the area, but variety is unbeatable. read more

the assortment of donut choices and crullers (spelling?) Everything I have had here was FRESH and delicious! Totally worth a trip!

Stoked! I just found out there was a Randy's outside of Los Angeles. They call maple bars "maple Long Johns", but they are the same as maple bars. They are solid, just silly name, you should get one or a bacon maple "Long John". You won't be disappointed. They are open during construction, you just have to go in the back door. read more

I probably come here once or twice a month to grab donuts for my department at work. I like this place because you can order online and have it ready when you pick it up at the store. I'm not a big donut fan I normally get the raised matcha tea donut for myself which I really like from here. The donuts are fresh and fluffy every time I get them. They do carry different donuts like classic, deluxe or premium. They also carry seasonal donuts - this time I got the dad donut for Father's Day. The service is a hit or miss sometimes it gets really busy so the workers sometime seem irritated. But I DONUT worry about it, I order online :)! read more

Randy's Donuts - Mixed donuts #2 with seasonal Father's Day donut - Donuts Near Me - Pasadena, California

Parking was tricky, and the building is under construction out front, so can only enter through the back, very small store. Friendly staff small line. Not very many donuts out, the ones they had were probably there all day, definitely weren't fresh. Kind of disappointed with this location. I've been to the original and never had a bad experience. I would not recommend this location or return unfortunately read more

I came here before closing and Isaac and Danielle were patient and sweet. Ok so I may have been drinking at dinner right before stumbling here. And I may have been a little loud and rambunctious. But we chose our limited options and Isaac very astutely asked if we needed water. I said YES. he asked with ice? I said YES. I come here a lot during the day but this was the first time at night and it's good to know I'll still get treated well and with love no matter what time of day. read more

Randy's Donuts is a neat little "hole in the wall" if you park in the plaza but never venture off to the front side of it. I usually miss it, but I noticed a small sign in the back so I ventured to visit one day. I ordered a deluxe glazed twist, and I have to admit I wasn't sure what to expect. Although I was greeted by squeaky floors from every footstep, the glazed twist was so sweet I could've easily forgotten about the floors! Randy's Donuts has a wide selections of popular flavors, and there is bound to be a favorite for you. I don't have quite the sweet tooth, but I knew that once I bit into that glazed donut that Randy's Donuts is better than the average glazed donut that I was expecting to try. read more

I've always wanted to try Randy's since it appeared on Iron Man, so I'm glad this location is close by! I got the classic glazed donut and apple fritter. The classic donut had a very soft, brioche texture but was a bit stale tasting since I picked up the donut at night. Highly recommend the apple fritter! It had plenty of apples and a great cinnamon flavor. read more

Greg is so helpful anytime I'm at this store. There is free parking behind the building in a huge city lot. This is by far my favorite location because the employees provide great customer service, Randy's has the World's BEST donuts, there's great FREE parking in the back, and they just built a gorgeous new patio out front. Thank you again, Greg! read more

Delicious donuts. Got the basic box of a mix of glazed, sugar, sprinkles, maple, chocolate donuts.

We will definitely be ordering more Randy's Donuts in the future! read more

Nothing special. Totally not worth the price. Horrible customer service. They threw my chocolate donut upside up into the box.

There are a number of donut options on Lake Avenue in Pasadena. Our new favorite is Randy's Donuts. We have never been to the original location near Inglewood with its King Kong size donut on the roof so it is great having this location close by. We were greeted by very friendly staff behind the counter. The selection of donuts behind the glass was varied and very tempting. So many choices! We settled on the classic dozen this time. Next time we will dive into the premium donut choices which all looked delicious. Our classic dozen were all fluffy and fresh with wonderful accents. Our favorites were the classic glazed donut and the maple iced cake. We loved our first visit to Randy's. We can't wait for our next visit to sample more of their donut goodness! Yay! read more

Tiny rectangular place! When you walk in. all you will see are doughnuts. Customers gets in one at a time - the place is really tiny! There are two doors-entrance in front and behind to exit. What I love about this doughnuts? It taste fresh even the next day. I find this doughnuts not oily compared to some other doughnuts I've tasted out there. I love that they have different flavors-lots of varieties. My fave is their hazelnut. Their doughnuts are crispy on the the outside and soft in the inside. It's not that sweet, just perfect for my sugar level. Their customer service is awesome. Friendly atmosphere. Parking is available behind the store or you you can Karl along the side street. read more

I was so excited to discover a Randy's Donuts in Pasadena! They have a dizzying amount of variety. From Texas Glazed to Crondys (their version of a Cronut!), but the donut holes are 1000% the way to go here. I ordered: *The plain buttermilk was SO HARd and like eating sugared cardboard unfortunately. *The blueberry was just A-OK. Nothing special. *Doughnut Holes - I was boring & just went with glazed but I love that they have really fun doughnut hole flavors as they'll make their premium doughnut flavors in hole form too (e.g. the froot loops one). read more
