First time here and blown away! So happy to have found this spot. Donuts and sandwiches are delicious, staff is incredibly friendly, and bathrooms are clean! Lots of seating space as well. Can't wait to be back! read more

Come one, come all! This is truly the best donut place I've ever been to in Arizona. The donut flavors range from classic to fun flavors. The taste of the dough itself is so good. I personally recommend the strawberry frosted and the coconut cream. They make their bagels in-house and make breakfast sandwiches. There are other pastries, such as croissants, and jalapeño cheese croissants. They sell gourmet coffee drinks too!!! The staff were always kind and welcoming. There are places to sit if you wanna sip on coffee and work. read more

Open sesame. Want a place that offers gluten-free doughnuts? Stop here. I got some gluten-free doughnuts here recently while accompanying Joyce who went full gluten because "My stomach isn't a coward." It was a good experience. The coffee isn't anything to write home about but the doughnuts were great. In a time where nothing is ever free anymore, not even the gluten, treat yourself to a doughnut. read more

Knock-knock! Who's there? Donut. Donut who? Donut ask, it's a secret! At least, I'm tempted to keep Sesame Donuts a secret. I got the #1 combo which is a coffee with two doughnuts. For my doughnuts, I chose the coffee cream doughnut and the Doughnut of the Month (May is Strawberry Shortcake). While I would not suggest coming here for the coffee, the doughnuts were pretty fabulous. I thoroughly enjoyed both doughnuts. I also got to try their gluten-free doughnuts and they were decent. All that was missing was the gluten. ;) Service was amazing, the location is massive and cute, and it's just a great place to grab a doughnut! read more

Sesame Donuts - GF donuts - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

I stopped by Sesame Donuts after getting a haircut in the same plaza and figured I'd get some treats for the family. For it being later in the afternoon, I was actually surprised by how many donut options they still had, pretty much the full lineup! The shop itself looked clean and well-kept, which is always a good start. The employee behind the counter was a bit standoffish, not rude or anything, just not super warm. but hey, maybe it was a long day, so I didn't take it personally. I picked up an assorted half dozen to try a little bit of everything. That's where things got a little mixed. About half the donuts were great, soft, fresh, and hit that perfect sweet spot. The other half? Pretty dry and tasted a bit like leftovers from the day before (or maybe even the day before that). So, I'm on the fence. If I come back, I'll probably stick with the classics instead of the "fun" or seasonal ones, and maybe swing by earlier in the morning when everything's freshly made. I wouldn't cross this place off completely. Just might need to catch them at their best time of day. read more

I wanted to get some donuts for my team so I used Yelp to find a good and highly rated donut. Donut shop near where I work. I'm so glad you yelpers did not steer me wrong. The service was fantastic and the donuts are really tasty. They are also very unique which I really like. I got a dozen donuts plus a kolache which was delicious and because I bought a dozen donuts and it was my first time I got a free donut. Everyone enjoyed them at work. read more

This is a family owned business that takes pride in their work. I just ended training at my new job so I decided to get the dispatch at my work a dozen donuts. I really wanted to make a good impression so I went out of my way to not get the regular Bosa donuts. This place exceeded my expectations!! when I called and asked for the price of a dozen a very nice woman answered the phone. She told me they had very unique donuts to come in to choose so I did. They had one of a kind donuts that were clearly freshly made and once a batch was over with they don't replace it for the day. It's a first come first serve. I would recommend these donuts to everyone and since I now know how fresh and sweet they are I will be coming back. Much better than "Voo Doo" or "Hurts"!!! Make sure you speak with "DA BO$$" she's a wonderful woman who carries on the legacy of her father and employs her son as well. Very cool looking venue as well. The inside is fun for people of all ages. read more

Gahhhh this is the best donut place in AZ, they are so friendly and their gluten free donuts are the best I've ever had. They are always warm and fresh and filling. Highly recommend! read more

We adore this place! We are always welcomed in with a warm smile and a friendly compliment. The modern and clean store show the attention and care that goes into running this location. We have never gotten anything we didn't love. My nephews favorite are the "monster" donuts. I love the Donut of the Month. This month is a Pumpkin Cheesecake. My sister always orders the French Cruller. But the jalapeño cream cheese croissant is special. Truly adore this family owned and operated donut shop and you can taste the love and care in each bite. read more

Sesame Donuts - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

I have visited Sesame Donuts many times, and it is among the best donut shops Tempe has to offer. One of my coworkers had his birthday today, and I got Sesame Donuts, as not only is he fond of donuts, but Sesame Donuts is conveniently located along the route I take to get from home to work every day, and back. When I walked in today, a friendly gentleman who was not only fun to talk to but was also patient with me when I was deciding what donuts to get when I ordered a dozen of them, greeted me. I also saw the gelato that the shop offered, and I said that the gelato looked delicious. Upon making that statement, the gentleman offered me samples. Since I had yet to have breakfast when I stopped by, I decided to sample only one flavor. The flavor I sampled was birthday cake, and it was amazing. The atmosphere of the shop is nice and colorful. Perfect for stopping by to grab some delicious donuts for any occasion. As I was selecting the final two donuts for the dozen I ordered, the gentleman even gave me an extra donut for free, which was a nice bonus. Therefore, I got a baker's dozen rather than a regular dozen. I highly recommend Sesame Donuts to anyone who is looking for a great donut shop in Tempe. read more

All of the great reviews here caught our eye so we made an unplanned stop. We were impressed that they had a good selection of donuts still at 1 p.m. on a Saturday. An incredibly nice woman sporting the name tag "Da Boss" was helping us (the boss, I would presume, lol) and she offered us samples. We also heard how Sesame donates their donuts to hospitals, which is pretty awesome. We purchased a variety to try: chocolate frosted raised, French crueller, apple fritter, raspberry bismarck, buttermilk bar, churro. And then Da Boss may have added a couple extra just because she has the freedom to do so. (!) I liked the apple fritter and chocolate raised the best. It's nice to find a business that cares about their customers and their community. read more

This is the coziest local spot. The owners have been in business for 20 years! They have shops all around the United States. This is the only Arizona shop. They make the donuts, hot and fresh, and so yummy! They treated my niece with such love and grace. The owner: "Da Boss"was so kind and loving! It felt like going into your Aunt's shop and getting her homemade donuts! They had cute decor that we took pictures next to. It was just this beautiful experience and we will definitely be coming back support local donuts read more

Sesame Donuts - Gluten free - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

I used the Too Good to Go app here and that was awesome. Donuts are delish, staff is friendly. No complaints. It's donuts... they are small cakes IMO. Main positive is using that app to prevent food waste and get a deal. Overall donuts have become exorbitantly expensive now. Some places charge $2.50-4 per donut. That's literal insanity given their operating costs most likely haven't gone up that much (they've gone up but not $4 a donut, up). And I'm not just talking about Sesame. I'm talking about the "donut industry" lol. They are just very popular now and people will pay stupid money for cute things. That's why I don't get donuts often but enjoy them from time to time. As I said, they are simply little cakes. read more

I've been here a couple of times now and I enjoy their donuts, both the quality/freshness and the variety. What really makes it nice is the friendly staff. This visit, the place was a lot more crowded than the last one, but the staff worked well together to ingest and fill orders, opening another register when the line of customers waiting became a little long. I have only been in the front area with the donut, gelato and pastry counters, but it is clean and well-lit, so I expect the same from the side area with tables and chairs. I love buttermilk sticks and theirs is really tasty. It is also quite large and counts as two donuts in my book. The crullers and fritters are also solid choices. at least four stars for the donuts, easily pushed to 5 for the friendly service! read more

Such a cute and lively place! It is clearly a favorite because it was busy when we arrived and there was a woman working that I heard a lot of customers calling "Mama" so clearly she is known and cherished. Customers also knew the names of the other staff who were working. There is a large variety of options. Truly something for everyone. We ordered a cheesecake donut, churro donut, strawberry sprinkle donut and Dutch crumb donut. All of the donuts were fresh and yummy. We also got the zataar and feta croissant and an iced chai latte. The croissant was perfectly made and flaky. The chai latte was a little on the sweet side for me and it seemed like the iced in it melted quickly. They have a nice little seating room and patio seating. They have a shared lot with plenty of parking. We will be back. read more

The gluten-free donuts and bagels here are amazing, as well as their regular donuts and bagels! The vanilla gluten-free donut (they have a chocolate option too) is the most cake-like GF donut we have ever had and the GF donut is customizable with the same toppings as their regular donuts (we ordered maple frosting for ours). Very delicious! We also ordered some regular donuts (my favorite was the blueberry fritter) and they were so delicious as well! We also ordered a gluten-free everything bagel sandwich with bacon, egg, and cheddar cheese and a sesame seed regular bagel sandwich with maple, sausage, egg and cheese, and both were amazing! The food was absolutely delicious and the service was fantastic. Da Boss is an amazing friendly woman who helped make our experience at Sesame Donut excellent. 10/10 will visit again when we visit the Tempe area again! read more

Cute little donut shop with some additional sweets such as ice cream, drinks, etc. with some gluten free options! Not all of the donuts can be made gf, although a good amount of them can be which is amazing, I'm happy enough if they even had one option. I tried three with my mom, we had a chocolate glaze, strawberry glaze, and a portland donut as well. The gluten free donuts aren't out on display, if you order any they're made fresh in the back so they do take a little bit of time to make, just a heads up in case anyone was hoping for a quick in and out trip. The donuts were super good and I can't believe how many options they were able to provide! read more

Recently I've been using an app that connects people with local businesses to help reduce food waste & so glad I took advantage to coming here as I it wasn't on my radar. I purchased ahead a dozen doughnuts and when I arrived I was happily surprised to find the large variety of doughnuts, bagels, gelato & specialty items they have on hand. Service was great and the donuts they selected were quickly taken down once I got home by the family. Some of the flavors, they were a first!!! Lots of items are made in store daily which highlights a commitment to excellence... Sounds old skool, but that's what's missing from businesses these days. After a few minutes of conversation, he mentioned Oregon and I quickly connected the dots that I had been to a shop there and that this was the 1st store to open in Arizona. Family owned & run business!!! They made sure to share with me some of the things they do in house and how it makes a difference in the quality. Thankful that I was able to connect with Sesame Donuts and learn a bit more about the business. Since my initial visit, I've return 2 other times while driving by (near Dutch Brothers so avoid all the drive thru traffic & use the VIP parking signage, in front) I do still struggle with the individual price of donuts (~$2/each) so I would highly recommend ordering a half or full dozen. My last trip, picked up a few Kolaches... yeah, they have traditional ones. Next trip will incorporate a breakfast sandwich & donuts via one of the Combo Meals. read more

When you see a donut shop with 5 stars, you are are absolutely required to detour and check it out. I would nearly give them 5 stars for the staff alone. They were super friendly, helpful, and made sure we got to try plenty of samples. The store was clean, and definitely showed that they cared about what they were doing. Every donut we tried was fantastic, each were filled with flavor and made extremely well. In addition to the donuts they also had some savory items and gelato. Their signature sesame donut was a really fun flavor and I'd recommend everyone to try it. I don't know that I'd order it every time, but it would absolutely be on my rotation. read more
