Cute hole in the wall spot known for lottery winners! The bacon egg and cheese was perfectly done, exactly what I was craving. A bit high for the $10 price point, but it is Hollywood. The croissant was very flaky but filled with chocolate donut glaze - not bad but definitely not the same experience. The regular coffee is not great. For $17 total it hit some cravings, but still felt overpriced. The cashier was prompt and professional. read more

My husband went there this morning.My Child had gym and wanted a donut.He bought 6 maple glazed and they were so Stale.They couldn't be eaten.I have called and called they don't answer their phone..And also had the nerve to sell him stale donuts for 2.50 each...I am going to bring back after Gym and demand my money back.And advise others not to buy anything there.But of course I should have known when there were only about a dozen in the showcase..But how can they sell them to people...No Ethics read more

Don't waist your calories Here , Sugar donut with no sugar is crazy . This spot is terrible , and I'm not exaggerating!

I'm just confused how a donut shop would only have like 5 donuts on a Sunday morning.

Definitely the worst donut shop I've ever been to. They had no donuts their croissants look disgusting no creamer except for zero sugar. Vanilla lady was rude. Just sitting down drinking coffee. This place needs to close or needs a new management. read more

If I could give a negative stars I would! I waited 15 mins for a Bagel Egg & Cheese, mind you, I'd preferred a croissant but they were all out. They were practically out of everything... donut shop wit no donuts at 10am. Not only was there only one employee who's attitude could be much more pleasant- but she's the only one, I get it. Anyway, after waiting 15 mins, when my food was finally ready I asked for a refill of coffee. "We don't do refills here," with a sucking of the teeth. That was her response. Needless to say, I won't be returning. Refills on coffee, really... during my 15min wait I watched you make a fresh pot that probably costed you less than my ONE CUP. As I digress, customer service is everything to me- so unfortunate that it's dead these days. read more

Tang's Donuts - donuts and coffee - Donuts Near Me - Los Angeles, California

We went hiking at the nearby Batman Cave and wanted a sweet treat afterwards. I picked out a strawberry danish style pastry and it was very good and wasn't too sweet which I enjoyed. They also sell Lottery tickets and I bought our office group pool tickets here. We are still in this C19 pandemic and they have a funny system on getting your money and returning it on a small go cart back and forth system. read more

Tang's Donuts - a display of baked goods - Donuts Near Me - Los Angeles, California

No donuts for quite a while, no butter either for the croissants. The sandwiches are great but this is a donut shop with zero donuts. Hope things pick up. read more

Tangs Donuts is one of the best spots in Los Angeles. Stopped here not long ago to eat some donuts and bagels. They have a variety of different flavored donuts. They offer more than just donuts tho. Orange juice and coffee is good here. Owners and customer service is great. Its in a nice area too. I will be back. read more

Not much too offer. Here at 10am and has nothing in stock. Only one lady working here , so the wait time is too much. Not too mention the lady always seems to be in a upset mood. Service with a smile goes a long way. read more

9:45 AM and the chocolate donut is stiff to the bite and stale. I only took one bite and threw it away. Service with a smile would've been nice, too. read more

Delicious! She even warmed our doughnut holes for us. Super cheap and yummy. She was very polite and friendly.

This place use to be good, but over the years has become worse. the lady running the shop is tired and does not care anymore. She needs to hire help. I have been coming here for years, like 10 or more and lately the burritos are burnt, don't have all the ingredients and takes 20 + minutes to come out. Who has that kind of time in the morning. The donuts are mediocre, There are better donuts shops just up the street. Today was the last straw, waited for 7 min before she even came to the front, then she took my order, paid for the order, she went to the back. Then 10 min later she came up front to help another customer. Then she went back and never came back up front, waited way to long for a simple burrito. I left even though I paid, went to the Oaks and got a better burrito much quicker. I AM NEVER GOING BACK TO TANGS AGAIN! read more

The lady is incredibly and the food there is so tasty. I would definitely recommend for the people who are looking at this to go there and try out their meatball sandwich. read more

A very good donuts at a very reasonable price The owner is very friendly also, another plus. read more

I have been really good lately in not eating too many donuts. Don't know why but donuts and ice cream seem to be my favorite desserts. I was in the area and trying to decide on where to eat for breakfast and it was a toss up between finding a place to get pancakes or have a breakfast burrito. I thought the breakfast burrito would be the healthier option since it had some protein so and I was near Tang's Donuts shop so this is where I headed. They actually are known for serving a variety of sandwiches and they have them posted on the wall with pictures of each item. They have a "combo" where you can get a particular sandwich and a donut on the side. I saw the breakfast burrito and donut combo was $5.50 so I vied for that since it's what I originally came in for. Although, a lot of the other sandwiches were tantalizing as well. Placed my order and proceeded to pick out my donut but there were very slim pickins at this point since they apparently had a mad rush earlier in the morning of people grabbing donuts to take to work for Halloween. The case was empty except for one danish and a bunch of donut holes. Well, I got stuck with 6 donut holes as my side. The breakfast burrito was decent. It came with ham, bacon, scrambled eggs, and cheddar cheese. They also served a small tub of salsa. It wasn't a huge burrito by any means which made me think that paying $4.50 for this somewhat skinny burrito really wasn't a good value as I can get a larger burrito elsewhere for about the same price. I enjoyed eating it though as the bacon was crispy and the flavors all blended well together. I just wish there were a little bit more of it. It's alright though, it was close and convenient. Another competitor actually had a similarly priced combo with a bagel sandwich but it included coffee too where here, you had to pay extra for it. Still, not a bad place to get sandwiches or donuts. The owner is friendly as are the wait staff so I'll probably be back again. read more

First time here. See it often as I drive down Franklin (next to Gelsons) so stopped in today for coffee and donut. They have sandwiches and other snacks/drinks but I was up for coffee and donut. Both good. Inexpensive, too. Lady was nice. I stayed here about 30 min to read and eat. Lot of regular customers came in, joked around, bought food and lottery tickets. A lot of lottery tix! Ok I'm buying a lottery ticket on way out. Obviously they can't sell more winners than any other venue but the folks who scratched off here DID win some $ profit. I'm in! read more

I Have been coming here for years over time since the 80s, there have been different owners. At present, the current owner, has always worked hard for her customers. Great place to stop by and eat. Love the Donuts, Raise Clusters. Sandwiches, Smoothie's,Coffee, And fine Donuts. Please stop by, and Visit for it's in a great location, and Great Prices. A one stop shop for lottery tickets to. Fun games. Joan read more

Sadly not in existence anymore :( I used to love coming here late at night and watching the old men play chess. read more

Tang's Donuts - My first American donuts, and i really love them!! - Donuts Near Me - Los Angeles, California

We live close by and always stop by for a doughnut or to play the lottery. Tang is always so nice and generous to my two young boys. I wish there were more people like her in the world. She's the best. read more

Ridiculously long wait time 20 minute I spent in there with only 1 guy before me. My egg bacon and cheese sandwich was very tasty BUT my order was messed up! The first donut I order to go along with my entree was the glazed maple bar which is NOT IN THE BOX!! Also I was supposed to get 7 of the donut holes and I counted 6! She messed up my order, made me wait ridiculously long, and was not very polite in the beginning when taking my order-however she was nicer when ringing me up at check out. 2 stars instead of 1 because the breakfast bagel sandwich was that good and I was hungry. read more

Tang's Donuts - Donuts - Donuts Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Been coming here for the past few months after moving into my apartment close by, I guess the donut shop is ran by one lady who you can very easily tell is tired all the time and clearly needs to hire some help--one of my main gripes with this place is that for a donut shop there doesn't seem to be that many donuts sometimes none at all, I've gone in the mornings to try and get a donut and coffee but on most occasions I've gone the donut selection was either very lacking or there were none at all...the other thing that's a bit annoying is that they have a selection of sandwiches you can get which are actually pretty good however going off of how I mentioned there's only one lady who works here she makes the sandwiches and takes her sweet time, I usually get a tuna sandwich with the usual toppings (lettuce tomato onion) nothing too complicated but she'll usually take about 10-15 minutes to make one sandwich, if I went to a sub shop I'd be in and out of there in 5 minutes even if I had them put lots of toppings on my sandwich. Long story short this place is alright it's nothing special, if you wanna go to a donut shop that actually has donuts and where you won't have to wait weird amounts of time for food go elsewhere. read more

I went to tangs on. A Sunday @3:05 pm she was already closed and she opened her gates and lbet me in to buy lotto that she makes $0 Selling she restarted her lotto machine which took time (about 5 min) and sold me my lotto then took the time to tell me a funny story SHE'S ADORABLE and I'm going back in the morning to buy doughnuts just bcuz she was so kind! I'm from out of town and appreciate kind people especially in L. A. read more

I love this place. I always get the egg cheese and bacon croissant sandwich and try to say no to the free donut.

The donuts are donuts- what works for me is the location. right across the street from my house. They have a great assortment of soft drinks and coffee, salty snack foods, donuts, croissants, and pastries, and I love their breakfast sandwiches, especially the bacon egg and cheese croissant. Sometimes Bonnie is totally nice, sometimes barely cordial. It's a crap shoot, but you can always get a sugary treat! Speaking of crap shoots- get a Lotto ticket. read more

Tang's is a no-nonsense place. Coffee, donuts, sandwiches, lottery tickets and more. I like the way they do the sandwiches - pressed flat, like a Cubano. Basic stuff, but the bread is crunchy outside, soft inside. I'm usually here for a pastrami & egg sandwich. Pastrami here is the bomb - if you like pastrami, come here and give it a shot. The sandwich comes with a free donut or donut holes (and a coffee, too, if I'm not mistaken.) Nice. Donuts are always fresh and tasty. The only problem I have here is with the Lotto tickets: I haven't won yet, and I still have to work for a living. I suppose I could gripe the same about every place I've bought a Lotto ticket, which I only do about three times a year. Now, a few questions: - Are you a pompous, pretentious, self-proclaimed "hipster"?*** - Are you excessively, needlessly verbose in your reviews? - Do you consider yourself superior in the real world because an entity has titled you "elite" in cyberspace, based on the quantity and not quality of the reviews you've posted on their website? - Do you think Miami is located in the Northeast? - Do you hold a measly buck and change so dear that you hold a grudge against someone who's having such a bad day that she's in tears, and made an honest mistake? If you answered yes to any of these questions, Tang's is not for you! ***Is "hipster" Californian for douchebag? read more

TDS is not an anagram for a precocious genital wart but they are the initials of a certain well loved donutterie in the Franklin corridor otherwise known as "lower Mayfair." Truth be told, I am not a donut expert or donut Nut but do nut pretend to be more than someone who observes in the wings. Having said that much, there is nothing extraordinary about the sticky, fatty, rings of dough at TDS. What they make here is no crime, for sure, but why do neighborhood denizens flock there in a daily pilgrimage? The answer is a socio-economic one. For one, TDS offers the pocket change low price point of many donutteries. It's a quick sugary fix for under a dollar. For another, it's a social salt lick for the working class that is as unpretentious and unthreatening as the red plastic sandwich baskets here at Tang's. They have fuzzy television playing and a California Lottery station in the corner in case you're jonesing for the scratchers. It's high cal in a low cul environment. It's what keeps the Franklin bourgeoisie in check with all their wheat grass shootin, doggie biscotti eatin bee-yotches. But donuts are never enough. I shall digress even further. Some places aspire to donuts and Chinese food which is really so very Americanesque not in the propagandist "melting pot" goo lore but more like conjoined twins that share a single waistline. Freakish at first glance but it can work. Here at TDS they make a gesture to work within the white power structure and offer all American sandwiches which seem like something an Asian immigrant mother might make for her son's school lunch. Yes I find the it mildly inspirational to see TDS as a champion for another capitalist success story but beyond that quaint fable, it is what it is. Cheap donuts and inoffensive sandwiches and seeing your neighbors with donut glaze caught in their beards. Come here to be underwhelmed and partake in the communal salt lick. read more

This place is really amazing. I am not that fan of donuts. But today i wanted to try have a breakfast here because i had a little tome before work. So to tell the truth egg turkey cheese croissant was wonderful. I am sure i haven't had such a good breakfast for a long time. I usually make them at home. But from now on if i am gonna do out this is number one place in my list as live right few miles from here. I will definitely recommend this place for my friends!!! read more

The food is ok but if you want a apple croissant or a strawberry croissant, they only have one of each so you'd better come early. The lady who works here is always Rude! Never friendly :( read more

I discovered this place when a friend came into town and we were on our way to the OTHER coffee/sandwich shop on Bronson. Luckily for us that place was closed so we stumbled upon Tang's. Tang's Donuts & Sandwiches is the kind of place that would seem at home on some street off Sepulveda in Van Nuys. It's nondescript, unpretentious, and the laminated menu displayed in the window shows poorly lit photos of each food item. But for that reason, it really is a find in Franklin Village. I agree with most of the other positive reviews on here - the breakfast sandwiches are great (I got the bacon, egg, and cheese on a buttery and flaky croissant), the coffee is so-so, but the price in Hollywood can't be beat. Service is also no nonsense but not off putting. If you're looking for a quick bite to eat in the morning before running errands, or having a meeting, look no further than Tang's. read more

Hate it People are dumb, she can't speak English and on top of that she's mean and disrespectful. Never says hi always give me the wrong donuts... Don't go to that place. read more

I seriously thought this place was abandoned the first time I went inside. The shop was a ghost town when I entered and I stood by counter for at least 10 minutes without having a single soul -- employee or customer -- appear. Seeing how no one who worked there was making an attempt to serve me, I left without buying anything. I mean, I just wanted a doughnut and I could've cooked an ACTUAL meal in the time I spent waiting for a cashier there. read more

Average/generic quality donuts, tried several varieties, little difference from Winchels or Dunkin donuts but better than a grocery store at least. The staff were wery nice and happy to assist. DId not try any sandwhiches but perhaps they can do those better. The donuts at this location were definately better than those at the Silverlake location. read more

I laughed, then laughed some more when one reviewer said the "asian Lady there is very friendly". Asian lady has all the charm of a Soviet era Olympic gymnastics coach. I agree more with the review that said "Sometimes Bonnie is totally nice, sometimes barely cordial. It's a crap shoot". But I do like going to this store to buy lottery tix or donuts. Meanie McMeanerpants won't stop me. I like mom-n-pop shops so Tang's is up my alley. I've taken off one star due to lack of red carpet customer service. My guess is if the Berlin Wall was still up, this woman would defect INTO East Germany. read more

The fanciest strip mall yet for a donut shop, unfortunately the donuts did not match that of the exterior - they were mediocre in taste & in presentation. We sampled the Apple Fritter and the Old Fashioned Maple. The Apple Fritter was far superior than the Old Fashioned, and if our rating was solely based on it, we would give Tang's a 4.0, BUT the Old Fashioned Maple took our rating down a big notch because it was not fresh, the Maple flavor was not Maple and we were left with a strange aftertaste in our mouth. The Apple Fritter, however, was crispy in all the right places, had apples evenly distributed, and was what we would hope for in an Apple Fritter - above average in our books. With all that said, we would recommend this donut shop ONLY if you and your family is on their way to the Bat Cave and just wanted to pick up a couple of donuts for the fam on the way up to Adam West's old hang out. It seems like a nice leisurely thing to do, BUT if you consider yourself a donut connoisseur by any means, this is not your place, even if you like an Apple Fritter, there are better donut shops out there, with better Apple Fritters.

"A-OK" is pretty much the definition of Tang's. Everything's just about what you'd expect. Here's how it goes.... You walk in and someone greets you about 2 minutes later. Before you know it you've only spent $2.85 and you're eating 2 average donuts and sipping an average coffee. You feel pretty average after your stop in and you walk out into average LA weather. Overall, if you're looking for something that is the definition of average, stop by Tang's. You won't regret it, but it won't change your life. read more
