    Beef empanadas
    Khamphone K.

    I haven't been to Rose Donuts for years; I decided to order a few stuff today. I had the lemon jelly filled donut, everything bagel with cream cheese, beef and chicken empanadas, jalapeno, ham and cheese croissant. Their donuts are always good. The croissant was just okay but they did pack it with cheese; it was goooey deliciousness. The empanadas were decent. Out of all things; the bagel with cream cheese could be better. There was barely any cream cheese on it. I've always encounter good customer service when I visit. Plenty of parking. Location is in a very good spot.

    Bacon maple
    Heather D.

    Went on a Tuesday evening. Staff were in the back and even after acknowledging me left me standing there for a while. Selection was limited, which I would expect at the end of the day. I got a bacon maple doughnut and a crumb coated doughnut. Donuts were fine. Not oily, not overly sweet. I had a couple of questions about what each donut was. They seemed annoyed that I was asking questions. Two donuts and a chocolate milk came to $12. It was also very hot in the store. We are in the middle of a heat advisory. But I imagine it's like that in the summer too.

    Such a great experience. The gentleman who greeted us and took our order was so happy and it shined through the entire experience. The donuts were delicious and the customer service was delightful. I wish there were more businesses that had people like this working. It's such a difference maker.

    I have not tried the donuts yet, but the Vietnamese coffee was not bad. It's not as strong as other places and it's not also not made in the traditional phin (they use espresso machine), but the aroma is not bad. They have a 16oz and 24 oz. They're a mom and pop shop with friendly owners and they do take cards! * if you're into seasonal donuts, their Halloween-decorated donuts are currently on sale! I plan to come back to try their donuts; they look like the type of donuts that I like -- cakey!

    Deluxe croissant
    Suzette E.

    I never in the area but when I am I make sure to visit Rose Donuts. I loveeee their donuts have been since I found out about them. Today I got the deluxe croissant and the Vietnamese iced coffee the forever faves. Lines are long but service is fast and the always moving so the wait is never long. Place smells yummy and there's good tables and chairs for you to rest while waiting for your order.

    Stamp on the box so you know where you got the best donuts ever.

    THE BEST DONUTS IN SAN DIEGO. This location off Morena Blvd at Napa & Linda Vista Road near the 8 & 5 freeways by Old Town IS PHENOMENAL. I have been coming here since 2011. They have the BEST glazed donuts, like biting into an Angel. They use the BEST DONUT DOUGH, which doesn't taste cheap, but is super French Pastry Chef-ish. They have breakfast croissants, sandwiches, and all coffees here. I can't wait for them to expand their location to be more of a cafe. Upgrade your donut experience and become a connoisseur of them like me. I brought the idea of the maple bacon donut to them in 2012 and they have been making them ever since. LOVE THIS BUSINESS! The line is always super long and they move it quickly. It is worth the small wait time. Do it!

    Great variety!

    This was the sweetest donut spot. We came in this morning on a pit stop on the way home from dropping off my husband to the airport for a little pick me up. The kids were so happy! The staff were all so kind and the line moved quickly. The donuts were so yummy and well made, and the breakfast croissant I got was perfect. Bacon was crispy, cheese was cheesin, it was what I was craving! This is the kind of small business you can tell they put their heart into. I even watched them give a homeless man, some donuts, and coffee which I thought was beautiful. Will forever come back!

    No gluten free, I just called. Better luck with the next one. The reviews must be old that show gluten free.

    Did you raise the price of the ham and cheese croissant from $6 to 11? My husband came to pick up brunch this morning and he said he was charged $11 for just the ham and cheese croissant (not combo?)

    There has been a change of management the prices have gone up for the doughnuts and sandwiches .

    Is this the donut shop that is Kris Bryant's favorite?

    If not, it should be.

    Do you make mochi donuts?

    They don't make mochi donuts

    How much is a dozen donuts?

    About 16 bucks for regular donuts if you add in the special donuts its more

    Any keto donuts?

    No, just regular gluten filled with real sugar donuts

    Any vegan donuts?

    No I asked and they said no.

    Any gluten free donuts?

    No, everything is the basic gluten filled recipe. They do appreciate feedback and make new flavors based on requests so you can visit and suggest this.

We ordered the coconut ice cream, mango, and pandan ice cream with sticky rice, fresh mango, and coconut toppings. Everything was so delicious, refreshing, and not overly sweet -- the perfect treat, especially in San Diego. I also loved the little details: they offered free coconut water, had extra coconut meat available, and our to-go order was prepared almost instantly. Even better, they packaged the ice cream sundae so carefully so everything stayed intact for the ride home. Great flavors, generous toppings, quick service, and such a fun coconut-focused menu. Definitely my new favorite dessert spot in San Diego!

It was filled with people at almost every table inside, but we got lucky that there was no line to order. We got the coconut sundae and the mango sticky rice. The employees were very kind and gave us our orders pretty much right away. Everything was so tasty. The ice cream was smooth and flavorful, all the coconut and mango pieces were ripe and sweet, and the rice was cooked perfectly. Everything tasted fresh and like they really took care with each ingredient. Another plus was that they're both vegan items! I'd definitely recommend trying both of those desserts. I can't wait to be back!

Bird Rock Coffee, a San Diego native named for the little town in La Jolla known for its rock formations along the coast inhabiting various seabirds, has expanded quite a bit all across the county and this location is just as unique as the others I've visited. Attached to the cafe, you'll get a glimpse into their roasting operations. What started as a micro-roaster, this chain has garnered a following near and far for their single origins, blends, and specialty drinks. As you arrive to this location, you'll find that there's limited parking relative to the size of this building. As you step foot into the shop, you'll understand why - most of their footprint is occupied by their roasting equipment but the dining space is still relatively large compared to more niche coffee shops. Situated with small tables as well as bench tops, during my weekend excursion, there was never a time that it was completely packed so you're bound to find a spot to camp. Outlets are also available from certain spots. Ordering is simple which can be done at the register or online. The menu is quite extensive with all things coffee but consider checking their online menus as I found items like their double cappuccino that wasn't advertised on their physical menus. If you do order through their mobile app, you'll automatically get reward points toward free drinks or food. Speaking of special offers, they also offer birthday goodies so when it's that time of the year, you're in for a treat! I did end up getting the double cappuccino and it was delicious and came out hot with just enough foam to add volume to each sip. If I weren't traveling with so much stuff, I would have considered getting their bags of beans to brew at home. Fortunately, they do offer a subscription and delivery through their website so for those like me looking for a taste from afar, you're in luck! From dark to light roasts, you'll have quite a few options with the notes you desire. The staff were friendly and helpful despite constantly at full capacity. Drinks kept churning out with the same consistent quality and hospitality. Overall, Bird Rock is a local roaster you'll want to check out as their growing operations is a clear result of their consistent product quality, accessibility through its many locations and ordering methods, and excellent service. This location in particular is just blocks away from the huge playground and park next to mission bay, albeit you're better off driving. I was much too full to grab food this around but it may be worth a try to go with the coffee next time. Whether you're a local or just visiting, consider making a trip out and roost on this rock for a while!
