    Dozen donuts and donut holes
    Amy V.

    Stopped by to grab some donuts for a party and the workers were so nice. Donuts were not my favorite as they're a little too dense for my liking. Definitely bring cash as they do not accept card!

    No cinnamon in the middle

    The cinnamon roll had no cinnamon though out the donut, only on top. The place was nice just small family owned business.

    A dozen

    I purchased a dozen donuts I believe it was $17 for a mix. Sadly they were not nearly as fresh as I remember which is the soul reason I loved this place. I really hope to try again as they have such a large selection and even a couple tables if you wanted to eat inside. Be prepared to know what you want as there is often a line out the door in the morning and they are trying to get to everyone as kindly and quickly as possible.

    This donut shop has been a Vallejo staple for a very long time and I've been following him around ever since I was a little girl. They now have a favorite of mine that I only come in for I don't want to mention what it is because then it'll be sold out LOL. Softest freshest donuts and just the right amount of frosting that also taste wonderful. I love the chocolate bars and twists. The only downside is they don't take card they take cash only that's kind of hard to do now in a cashless going society. Keep up the good work.

    Update: I came on the weekend and they had more variety. Super friendly workers. I went in a few days before Saturday to ask if I can put an order for my favorite French crueler donuts. They obliged and were happy to do it.

    happy birthday donuts!

    Super yummy donuts! My friend asked them to make lettered donuts and showed them an example. They were able to re-create them and even provided a couple extra repeat letters in case anything went wrong during the drive. The owners are so sweet and the donuts were cute and good!

    Not open for business yet @0600???
    Tang L.

    Hours of operation is incorrect. Drove here to pick up blueberry fritters and they're closed at 0600 not the posted 0530. 0630hrs daily is the correct time says the owner and he doesn't relate to Yelp. Vallejo is a fairly decent town but, one will need to be cautious of their surroundings if you're an out of towner.

    Royal Jelly Donuts has been a Vallejo business staple since I could reemember. They have changed locations a few times. If you want to do a quick donut run for your friends or family, this is the place to get it. It's your basic donut variety that people wIll like. I always get the blueberry filled. Just remember to bring cash all the time. No credit cards here.

    They gave us old donuts (probably the day before). No bathroom and they only take cash.

    This is the OG donut spot in Vallejo. Their donuts are rich and creamy. I'll choose Royal Jelly over any donut shop!

    Had the worst experience here yesterday. It took 30 minutes to get two donuts. That is only after…read morebeing ignored for 10-15minutes, standing in line while online orders were being processed. There were three staff members in total (thin build, Latino male), medium build Filipino female with glasses, and a thin build Asian female). The male was working on an in person order when I walked in, seven to ten minutes later the same woman was standing around waiting for parts of her order - no other in person customer was being assisted. A young woman, who had placed an online order for two coffee drinks asked repeatedly if anyone was going to make her drink order. It took two staff members - Asian female, Latino male) - to help figure it out, each debating who was going to make it. The Filipino female kept coming from the back to bring sandwich items to seated waiting customers. The male continued to look at online orders before helping the family of three in front of me. When their order was finalized, the male walked away from the register and proceeded to look at the online orders. He said nothing to the line, did not acknowledge our presence. He went to the back to make a sandwich - again two staff members working on one thing (Filipino female, Latino male) while in person customers stood and waited. The Filipino female asked what him what was in the bag while standing at the front of the store. The other Asian female was still working on the coffee drinks from the online order from when I first walked in. After about ten minutes of being walked by and disregarded, while waiting to be acknowledged, I asked is anyone going to take our orders at the counter? The male replied, "Yes, but we have a lot of online orders and we'll get to you shortly." So online orders take precedent over those waiting in store to purchase? If this is the case, then why are there only three staff members who are clearly not organized nor serve in the capacity of enough staff to assist customers online and in person? If I had not asked about being helped, no telling how long staff would had continued to ignore us. The Filipino female walked over, asked how my day was and asked what she could get me. After each donut selection shared, anything else?... She was being passive aggressive in her tone and with her words. As I was waiting to select my receipt options, she saiid, "All of that for two donuts" to the male. Who both went into the back while the rest of the building line waited. When I finished my receipt selection and entering my phone number, the father and son behind me were still waiting without any assistance or staff acknowledgement.. If I had not promised my daughter a donut prior to order road trip, I would have left long before. Worse service as it was nonexistent to those in person. There were three staff, two were doing staff and the third at the front was nonexistent. Do better Dynamite, your customer service was absent yesterday, staff not at all prepared or organized and your store is not staffed to assist both online and in person without neglecting in person. Communication was nonexistent as well, leaving customers standing in line without a single word or thought of returning any time soon. Online orders, you'll be waiting too. There were three people who walked in, going directly the register with a phone in their hands. They were waiting two for the pickup while the young lady wanted her coffees made. The ambiance here...people were upset across the board. I would rather drive to Pinole and get service, Dynamite donuts are not worth that wait or nonexistent level of service.
