    These donuts are terrible. Whoever heard of a cinnamon roll with no cinnamon on it? They don't taste good. Waste of my damn money ! I'm pissed my husband bought the donuts here . He works at the post office and said they buy their donuts here! I said why? People will buy and eat anything! After tasting these crappy donuts I'm considering going into business for myself!

    Hello North County!! Nette B is here... TIP: CASH ONLY and if you don't have cash there's an ATM machine inside. Hmmmm heard good things from friends but IDK... I might have to give the another try. The worker was nice. The selections were good. I ordered 2 dz donuts and I ate a glaze donut. It was sugary on the outside but it didn't wow me. It was just alright. The coffee was good too.

    Just a better picture of their smoothie selection.

    Tans is always our go to place for great donuts and breakfast sandwiches. Our girls love the selection of donuts and we all love the taste.

    Yummy!

    I love this little hidden gem! I tried a lot of flavor boba and the doughnuts are super fresh and delicious. This place is a must visit!

    My coworker decided to be bad and bring in donuts for the office. She brought in a variety pack and I opted for the old fashion glazed. It's not very often that I eat donuts, but when I do, it's the bad ones... Talk about sweet!!! I think I have a cavity now ??? Anyways, there's a history behind this donut shop. My friend indicated that Tan's used be owned by a really nice couple who have since retired and sold the business. Since then, the donuts haven't been as good. Thanks to her, I'm going to be wired on this Friday... YIPEEEEEE!!!

    Favorite donut place. I always go in the afternoon though, so the selection is a bit lacking, but they always have the donuts I like.

    Best Donuts in Oceanside!!! Friendly, welcoming and fast customer service. It's always clean…read moreinside. They've got a nice assortment of donuts, croissants and drinks (Including the best Apple Fritters and Bear Claws). I like that they accept cash and Zelle. Although it shares a parking lot with Domino's Pizza, a barber shop and a dry cleaner, there are plenty of available spots.

    We live nearby and have been trying to catch this place open. Didn't realize it was closed on…read moreMonday and when we came another time later in the day they were closed. I assume they make a certain amount and when they're gone they close and that's probably the way most places do it. Donuts were good, not greasy. I'm not a big donut person so they were ok and comparable to most places that don't have a greasy donut that leaves that oily taste in your mouth. What I really came for was the ham and cheese croissant but it was a little disappointing. Prices were actually much higher than I was expecting. We paid almost $20 for a ham and cheese croissant, blueberry cheese danish and 6 donuts including a cinnamon twist thing that I assume was supposed to be more than the others but I can't wrap my head around $18.30 for what we ordered. I legit think she charged me for 15 donuts instead of 5 cuz I saw something ring up as 15. Based off that I can confidently say I won't return. Items werent worth what I paid and if it was an error charge, the employee should have known that what I ordered was not close to $20 so I cant recommend this place

The pies are pretty good, but also kind of ordinary. Think my favorite photo was the one with Maverick and Charlie by one of the exit doors. Worth a visit just to check off your list. There's also Maverick's motorbike out front that's great for photos if you're wanting to take one on it.

On our way home from our mini vacation today was the perfect day to stop by as it's a weekday and there wasn't much/ hardly any traffic we around just past 1030am and found metered parking near by immediately. When we arrived there were no other customers we got to take pictures of and with the house and motorcycle. I'm not much of a pie person the only pie I usually eat is pumpkin but I was open to any other pastries they offered. My husband wanted to try the pies and I ended up ordering my sister some to take back home. We ordered 2 sets of the 3pack. One order all apple pie the other was cherry, apple and a blueberry. I also added a dark chocolate brownie and lemon bar. As my order was ready and called the kind lady said she labeled everything and added some extra. We walked on the boardwalk for a few minutes then walked back to eat our pies at their outside cover patio. Saw that she gave us an extra 4pies!! That was so generous. I decided to give them all a try and oh my... they were all delicious. It was warm, the crust was alittle flakey it had a nice little crunch yet also soft and the crust flavor was SO delicious. Loved that the flavors were not overwhelming sweet! The dark chocolate brownie and the lemon bar were cold and didn't think anything special about it a bit in the sweeter side. Overall it was a great experience really enjoyed the pies and the service was amazing!
