Everything you could be looking for in an indie donut & bagel shop. The breakfast sandwiches are available with a wide variety of freshly-baked bagels, buns, or flaky and buttery croissants. You know it's a quality breakfast sandwich when the veggies are fresh, crisp, colorful, and full of flavor! So many veggie add-on options, and also several different flavors of cream cheese, both savory and sweet. Quality egg preparation, likely on the fluffy and moist side (delicious!) -- let them know if you have another egg preparation preference. If you're in the mood for milk tea, the boba is very fresh, with a soft and melty outside and lightly chewy center -- perfectly cooked, and not too sweet. Many smoothie, shake, and tea flavors available, all with fresh fruits (and a few veggies). AND THE DONUTS!! Fluffy, flavorful, and not too sweet, the perfect light amount of glaze. Huge twists and filled croissants. You can even get a glow-up of your favorite fast-food burger and fries combo here -- but bigger, tastier, and with fresher ingredients. For a small spot, there are a reasonable amount of tables to eat inside. The menu is large on the wall and bright, plentiful photos make it very accessible, helping you choose what to order and speeding along a line if you arrive during peak breakfast hours. The friendly staff will make sure your order is right, and recommend tasty pairings if you're overwhelmed by the huge selection of menu options. If you stop by on a busy weekend morning, likely to see a few regulars, whom the staff welcome and often remember their orders. Are you the next Sam's regular? read more

We happened to stumble across this place one morning when we were craving bagel sandwiches and have been frequenting here ever since. Their Vietnamese coffee is amazing, and their boba teas are even better! The teas are so refreshing, never too sweet. The bagel sandwiches are so good. Every single one we've tried is better than the last. The owners are so incredibly nice as well! They always give us a free donut when we come in, it's so sweet. read more

The place is nice and clean. The donut texture is on the soft and pillow side. Service is good and noise level is low. Lots of drink selections such as coffee, boba, fresh juices, and lots of other bottle drinks. Got a dozen of their donunt from Too Good to Go and is amazed by the quality. read more

This place has a good variety of choices for breakfast. Donuts are good but not as consistent. Not sure if I got some older donuts but there were a few times they were dry. The service is average. It looks like it's just a couple running the place with kids in the store. It's tough but I give them props for opening the place. Gives locals another option for donuts. read more

The food was good but it was so messy to eat. They didn't cut the bagel sandwich all the way through so it was impossible to eat without making a huge mess. This honestly was a big turn off for me because for what I was expecting a yummy bagel sandwich I got bagel slop. read more

I called for a large order for pickup around 8am. The lady who answered was super nice and made sure all 10 orders were correct and said it would take around ~15min. When we arrived we were greeted warmly by the owners. They have a wide variety of donuts, bagels, breakfast sandwiches, and lunch sandwiches. I got the egg and cheese croissant and it was delicious. Everyone who ordered with me also said their bagel and sandwiches were yummy! Come earlier if you want popular bagel flavors like everything bagel because they run out quick! The prices are reasonable and portion sizes were great. This is a small local family owned business that was recently renovated under new owners. Definitely will be coming back here again but earlier and before work! read more

The fresh juices were delicious and refreshing!! The total came out to $13 for two 16oz. There's also a fridge with energy drinks and iced tea if you wanted to grab some inside. Next time I'll have to try the bagel sandwiches. read more

The best bagel sandwich I've ever had in my life was over 5 years ago, from West Side Bagel in Lahaina, Hawaii, which had to close after the Lahaina fires. Since then, I have not had a bagel sandwich that rivaled how good that one was...until NOW. I got a bagel sandwich (B4) from Sam's and LET ME TELL YOU GUYS. Their bagel sandwich was FANTASTIC. One of the best things about it is the melty cheese. Every single ingredient they use in their sandwiches is good quality, especially the bagel dough, which makes a huge difference. I have been back 2 more times since then and both have been great. If I had to give any feedback to improve, it would be to please put more slices of ham, not just one :D read more

Amazing! Ingredients are as wholesome as it can. I bought roast beef bagel sandwich (Nevada) and smoked turkey croissant sandwich (green apple) and freshly juiced drink (apple-beet-orange- a touch of ginger). Uses Boar's deli meat (the finest) that comes with sprouts, avocado, and other veggies. To top it, freshly juiced drink. No added preservative or sweet. Natural and fresh. Friendly and ambience is pleasant. They give exceptional customer service. This place is clean and welcoming. Go try it. It's more than a donut place. read more

Cute and cozy little donut shop with super sweet and nice owners. They've always given us extra donut holes whenever we make a purchase, which is super nice. The donuts are light and fluffy. I also enjoy the Vietnamese coffee here, they give you such a huge amount/cup for what you pay for compared to other larger corporate places. I'd rather get a coffee here and support smaller business like Sam's rather than get more overpriced coffee (and it's weaker) at Paris Baguette across the street. Happy to have a small donut shop around and they offer sandwiches, burgers and other snacks and boba drinks as well. read more

Used to patronize Arcadia Donuts until I eventually got turned off by the previous owner's constant attempt to capitalize on their association with a victim of the MPK situation years ago to present. Upon finally noticing the change to the store signage and learning that the shop was under totally new ownership, I decided to stop by for a quick breakfast pickup around 8am on a Sunday morning. Was immediately greeted by a polite and heavily preggo gal. Kuddos to her for being on her feet since opening time and still having such a pleasant demeanor. I could never tbh. Lol. The donut case was full and options were plentiful. Only ate a cinnamon crumb donut so far out of the dozen that I purchased, which was fresh, super fluffy, and didn't leave me in a diabetic coma. Inside of the shop had a total refresh and was given new life over the previously dreary and minimalist interior than before. Much more inviting now. Pricing is on par for a mom & pop donut shop. Also appreciate the more extensive sandwich and drink menu offerings, and the fact that I can finally get my Green Thai Tea fix close to home while running errands at the crack of dawn. Sometimes, you can't wait for other tea places to open at noon and just need a quick hit of boba when you're out in the wild with the local senior citizens at sunrise, and now there's a solution for that. read more

Had the croissant bacon, egg, cheese, avocado sandwich today and IT'S SO GOOD. Y'all, this my new favorite place.

Sam’s Donuts & Bagels - Beet Orange Juice - Donuts Near Me - Arcadia, California

I'm so happy that I stumbled upon this place, I've been so upset that Goldstein's bagels in Arcadia closed so I was thrilled to find an Arcadia bagel sandwich spot. The first time I came here I got a ham and cheese croissant and a Vietnamese coffee and both were AMAZING. And the man and lady were so sweet and lovely, the nice lady even gave me a free donut! Since then I have had a BLT croissant sandwich, the bacon was crisp and good quality, not like nasty chain microwaved bacon, and their croissants are so yummy and well baked! I also had the Vietnamese coffee again, it's addictive, and a Beet and Carrot juice which was fresh and delicious! The donuts are fresh, fluffy and SOOO good! I'm so happy this place is in Arcadia, it's nice and clean and new looking and everything so far is fresh and good quality. My new go-to coffee/tea/juice and breakfast spot! Their drink selection is awesome- I can't wait to try more juices, smoothies and teas- and their quick breakfast selection- anything you could want, sweet or savory and fresh! I'm excited to try the nova lox bagel sandwich next. read more

I came in a month ago and was pleasantly surprised by the remodeling of the store. Sam was great in terms of service and just being nice. Introduced me to his very pregnant wife, Erica, I think her name was. Went in this morning to get a breakfast bagel (B6) on an everything bagel... it was great. Soft inside, not soggy. Outside was a little crisp with a nice chew. Cut in half to make eating easier. Try this place! read more

I stopped in today and the inside looks so clean and modern. Bright lights to display the donuts. I only got one donut to try it out and it was a solid donut. Fresh and fluffy. The owner was very sweet and friendly. Come support SGV small business owners. read more

Donuts were fresh and delicious! Nice clean and new donut shop unlike most around that are run down. Highly recommended!!

Great family owned bagel shop. I got the breakfast bagel B3. Everything bagel was light not heavy and dense. Sandwich had fresh ingredients. The owner was amazing! Kind and patience service. There was a minimum credit card order and I fell short and didn't have cash. I not only put the order through with no fee, but give me a donut hole to try. Great local shop good food, good service -well worth the stop in! read more

The lady who helped was pregnant! Her son was there with her. We came here around 4:15 pm Saturday. My 2 kids were hungry after we left the library. This newly opened shop is near our home. It was super clean inside. I grabbed a half dozen. Not many selections are left this late in the afternoon. Boy, the donuts tasted great still! Not super sweet, and the donuts were FLUFFY!!! The lady gave a bonus donut for my kids! Super nice of her! Will be back to support small businesses! read more

I only came here because the reviews made it seem like it was fresh and good. But it's not good! First, I payed 7.75 for a bacon egg and cheese croissant. For one croissant sandwich! I mean I know prices are going up everywhere but I would've just went to a mainstream coffee shop for that price are you kidding. And the sandwich had a weird after taste wasn't bad but I guess the price just made me sick. And I went to look at the donuts they hardly had any when I went in maybe a dozen of only bars. I wanted to get a snatch coffee and donuts but walked out with an over price croissant. read more
