Best Apple fritter period. My family and I love them. We have tried many Apple fritters and Teddys are the best.

It really doesn't look like anything special. That is, if you see it. The storefront doesn't face the street, while other in the L-shaped outdoor strip-mall do. Near Carl's Jr and a 76 gas station -- that's your markers to find it. Found it, and I was wowed. ===================== Open 24 hours (good to know for late night munchies), they have a nice but not totally expansive selection. However, larger than life donuts, all -- but particularly, a special shout-out to the bear claws, cinnamon rolls, and apple fritters. Also, not mention, the place is older but very clean. Wonderful texture, great fluffy and slightly chewy dough. I tried the bear claw (mine) and parts of the gf's, a cinnamon roll. Both were ridiculously good. Let it be known right now. In other words, let me be clear. I come to the area every 2-3 months. Yes, I'll be stopping by for donuts every time. read more

Fresh, light, fluffy and DELICIOUS donuts! Friendly service followed by a cheery "See you tomorrow!" So much better than the "chain" donut shops! read more

Best Donuts in the Coachella Valley, this place is opened super early and closes when sold out. The service is great and always tells you "See you Tomorrow" after you pay. Teddy's is clean and has a great variety of drinks and donuts. read more

I stumbled upon the donut shot one late night to take a break from driving and it was the best decision ever ! Its located right off the 10 fwy which made it convenient to get back on. Service was friendly and the donuts were still fresh. Usually when you go to donut shops late at night, the donuts are often stale but at Teddys Donuts, they were soft and fluffy. read more

Best doughnuts in the valley hands down!! Always fresh and a very good assortment of doughnuts and croissants!

They have good donuts, huge apple fritters, and are cheaper than Swiss Donuts at a comparable quality (though SD has better bear claws). That being said, something disturbing happened to me not just once but twice here. Long story short, yesterday, I stopped by to grab a couple of donuts with my daughter and I asked the gentleman there to put on a 50 cent tip since I don't carry cash. I don't remember the exact amount but he gave me a total of 3.70 and after I asked him to add 50 cents for tip, he said okay, 4.70 okay? I was a bit distracted with my daughter and said okay thanks, and it wasn't until after I paid that I realized he bumped up my tip to a dollar instead of the 50 cents I asked. I thought it might have been a mistake or I misheard him, but I did the same thing today where he gave me the total, I asked him to add fifty cents as my tip and he casually gave himself a dollar tip (which to be fair he told me as he was ringing me up). Just to make sure I hadn't misheard him, I asked for a receipt this time and yup, there it was. I am not usually a stingy person but doubling a tip is kind of shady and disappointing. I will probably be back at this place but not for a very long time. read more

(Snacked 04/17/16 SU @ 11:00am): This was no "Joe Smoe" Tom, Dick, or Harry donut place; the apple fritters here were unbearably good! The unofficial "Apple Fritter Is Taking Over The World Tour" landed in Bermuda Dunes at Teddy's Donuts while I was in the area for the annual Coachella Valley Music And Arts Festival. Truth-be-told, this was the second stop since the first one was already out of apple fritters; WTF!? Would this apple fritter only be a mirage or something real and spectacular!?: Apple Fritter ($1.65) - Not that I was an apple fritter snob - fuck it...yes I was! - but there was a certain way I liked mine. First, the price was a shade higher compared to others I've eaten. Second, this one had some heft to it and larger than the size of my hand (an ode to Goldstar Doughnuts). Third, there were noticeable apple bits buried in each bite. Fourth, the darker brown color was very appealing, and the overglazing was simply heavenly! There were some crunchy odd crannies, corners, and nooks which I liked to break off into small little morsels. Fifth, it was fresh and cooling while there were some hints of tiny oil pockets that leaked into your mouth and dripped down your throat. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=uE1cv2W8PJ0uYP-Wr4u4tg&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw Sprinkles Donut ($1.00) - Who didn't like a bright and colorful sweet treat...because I certainly did! Again, the price was a shade higher compared to others for this standard donut type. Eaten the following day for breakfast, it was still fresh, moist, and a mouthful to the point I wish I had a tall glass of milk. With cracked glaze and sprinkles scattered all over my car seat and lap, this was lip-smacking good! https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=LLx9EG8XXoADj3X9Ix51DA&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw Service - A pleasant middle-aged Asian woman greeted me and was eager to assist as I tripped the sensor beeper. I immediately saw the tray of apple fritters https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=11-H42vK5nTT-ZEF61zHgg&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw and made a beeline for them, at which time she asked which one I wanted. I chose the largest one I saw, and then scanned for something else since I couldn't simply have left with one item. With sweet eats in a white paper bag, I was off and running to grub and eventually groove to some music. All was quick and painless. Parking (Free) - They shared a decent-sized parking lot among other businesses in an outdoor glorified strip mall - 'nuff said. Atmosphere, décor, ambience - Grungy storefront outside https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=I_NgRRPmHna_Lp_llRO4HQ&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw yet very clean and inviting inside. Nice laminate flooring welcomed you along with vibrant lime and kelly green walls which were kept relatively clutter-free except for Lotto and menu signage https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=snO7tVFU-NAndNO2YNyrvw&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw. Multiple display cases for your ogling pleasure with the usual assortment of a refrigerated drink machine and coffee/tee prep counters. There were a few small tables and chairs to sit at, but nowhere outside. Natural lighting came through the large front glass door and walls while electric fluorescent ceiling lighting also guided your way. There were no TVs, but I couldn't recall whether or not there was any background music. Attire - Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. Overall, although I hadn't really explored the area I found a wonderful place to get my apple fritter on at Teddy's Donuts. Sure, I'll probably search out other places next time I'm around, but it's good to know I had a go-to place. The prices were a pinch more, but I could live with that. The service was great and I got to support a local small business which was always a plus. I don't believe they sold boba which seemed to go hand-in-hand these days. However, they were diversified and sold other drinks and eats like most shops these days. I found very good value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $3.00 BEFORE tip). And, CASH ONLY, so obviously my credit card of choice - or any for that matter - wasn't accepted...AMEX! 4.0 STARS read more

Best Apple fritter Ive ever tasted! It was crisp, fresh and good sized. I will definitely continue to buy my donuts from Teddys. read more

Very good. Yummy. Had the apple fritter and chocolate bar. Didn't have that greasy aftertaste some places have. Woman working there was very nice and personable. Knew her regulars. read more

Just delicious!! Very light and airy. Great assortment of donuts and pastries. Can't wait to try the croissants next! Best donut I've had in a very long time. In fact I don't remember ever having a better one. So close to where I live, this could become a habit. read more

Place is cash money! Love that it's right across from and SD also... just goes to show how much better they are that they be right across the street and still survive all the madness. Just have to figure out how to stop eating these things... read more

Teddy's Donuts - Solid gold - Donuts Near Me - Bermuda Dunes, California

Visited for breakfast. The place needs some updating. Donuts in cabinet but nothing marked. Asked employee but could not get pass language barrier. Ordered a cream fill donut, sprinkled donut, and two glazed donuts with one coffee. Two of the donuts were stale or day old. Coffee was generic. I sat there to eat with friend and no napkins. Had to ask employee that was chatting on the phone if we could have a napkin. We were given one each from behind the counter. I would not return. I would rather see a friendly employee and smaller amount of fresh donuts than eat at a place that is slowly dying. read more

Pretty good donuts, but not special in my opinion. Swiss donuts are lighter, the glaze is better tasting and more evenly distributed. Just my opinion. read more

This place is great!!!!!!! I've been twice with my girl and both times the donuts were outstanding! Jumped in the other night and got 'em fresh out of the oven...Holy Guacamole!! Light and slightly doughy on the inside and perfectly crispy on the outside. #SoGood. Will be back :) read more

Bad donuts! Fritters too much sugar, not enough apple. Bear claws no almond, apple filling instead. Would not buy from there again.

Was so excited to walk in to a display full of plump donuts that all looked so scrumptious!!! It was almost past midnight when I walked in and was expecting to come across day old donuts like most places. There were bear claws, twists, bars, jelly, SPRINKLES!! You name it!! Would've ordered an entire dozen but like I said it was past midnight so I stuck to a maple twist and a cinnamon roll. Both were great!!! Not too sure about their hours of operation but I know they're open early and late. Front staff member was very nice too. read more

The best donuts I have ever eaten! Fresh, soft, so delicious! I wish I could eat them every day. Love this little donut shop! Best ever.

My all time favorite donut place. Other places I've been to must use old oil since I would get sick but never from here. Very nice customer service as well. read more

Best donuts I can recall ever having. The raised are especially light and soft. Lovely surprise of donut holes added to the dozen. Truly delightful donuts! read more

My husband and I have to share a car, and I needed it so I had to take him to work. I asked him to stop at Swiss Donut on Monterrey. It's was early, just after 5am. Well guess what, SD was closed tight as a drum with no lights on, let alone yummy donuts. Hmmmm So we headed down the freeway to Washington. There I saw TEDDYS DOUNTS. We pulled in and their donut case was full of sugary scrumptious mouth watering donuts! I couldn't wait to drop hubby off so I could eat my bounty. The donut was fresh, room temp which is ok cuz the donut was a delight. My fur babies attacked me when I got home with my second donut. In typical doggie fashion, they devoured some of a bear claw. I had to fight them off for the rest. Next time I have a craving for sugary treats, I'll drive the extra mile and go to Teddys Donuts. read more

I love picking up donuts in the morning from them! the employee is always so happy and it just makes my day. i bring donuts every now and then to my staff and we love them. the donuts are fresh and a perfect pair with our morning coffee. read more

Teddy's donuts was the cutest place! You walk in and can smell the sugary dough wafting through the air. They have a wide selection of freshly made donuts, at a great price. The employee was kind and told us about his favorites, and quickly checked us out. We enjoyed every last bite of our donuts and would come back again!!! read more

Best donuts in the Coachella Valley!! Don't often eat donuts, but when I do, Teddy's Donuts is where I go!

Best maple bar I've had in ages! So fresh and fluffy with the perfect amount of maple frosting. Also great muffins. Don't be put off by the appearance. Small business needs and deserves patrons. I can't wait to return the next time we're in town. I would have posted a photo but the donuts and muffins that were supposed to last the car trip were all gone in the first 20 minutes. Seriously that good. read more

The BEST donuts Ever! So moist and soft all day! My new favorite donut place! Prices are great too! What's not to love?? This is a must go donut place if you haven't been here already. I would give this place 100 plus stars if I could. This place is WORTH going out of my way especially if I am getting donuts for a big group of people. They will love them. read more

This place is legendary. Been coming here since I was a young kid. My grandfather and I would make this a routine. Best donuts on the west coast. ... and this is coming from a person that doesn't love donuts. Give it a try. read more

Very nice lady that helped me... Said they've been here for 25 years...I just don't get out for donuts often...LOL!! Never been there before... Open 24 hours except Saturday & Sunday nights, then they're open till midnight & reopen at 4am. $1 for 44 oz Fountain drinks Looks like there are also other products like ginseng shots & Baklava...hmmm... Interesting! :-) I like choices... NOW LET'S GET TO THE TASTE: Wow! I took a bite of my hubby's maple bar & seriously it tasted like a maple buttermilk pancake donut! Yum I had a piece off of another donut...surprisingly moist & nice hint of vanilla with a little crispy crust... Yum! Tried part of the cake donut with chocolate frosting & grated coconut...pretty good. So, with all my sampling, I think I ate a whole donut... Haha. Since I haven't been there I wanted to try a couple...haha... One note that maybe my donut fanatic yelp friends can help me with...the chocolate glaze or frosting was very thin (I like that not a frosting fiend here) but it cracked in a few spots & evacuated the donut like a sinking ship...haha. That's ok, I rescued them from the napkin later...Tasty. Ok, so my question is about the cracking (didn't crumble), is this common? The donut tasted fresh (but not just out of the oven fresh)... I did buy it at about 6pm...Still yummy... Another note just FYI...I don't like KK donuts...they're too air thin & sweet without springy dough... Hahaha... These are not like KK... YUMMY! I'll be back!!! read more

This place is part of my childhood. I'm so thankful they have lasted all these years and I will keep on coming back and introducing new people to this desert goldmine. If you're looking for a great donut look no further. read more

Doughnuts are so good and the lady was very nice. My daughter wanted some doughnut holes but she was out. The lady gave my daughter a free sprinkle doughnut for being out of doughnut holes. Very nice and great service recovery! The doughnuts taste great as well. read more

Teddy's Donuts - Donuts Near Me - Bermuda Dunes, California

Finally a 24 hour donut shop near the gym, just exactly what America needs. *sarcasm This donut shop is tucked in the mini strip mall, next to a noodle restaurant and a wing place (which is open till midnight). The donut man is super nice and friendly, we got there around 10ish, and it looked like they had a bunch of fresh-ish looking donuts/doughnuts. I got an apple fritter, a blackberry jelly filled donut and a baklava. Their baklava is surprisingly super delicious as well as their donuts. They also sell little ginseng shots at the counter. Half dozen donuts $5. Super cheap, and the donuts look bigger than Swiss donuts. read more

Teddy's Donuts - Donuts Near Me - Bermuda Dunes, California

solid little donut place in the palm desert area, really good bear claw and glazed donuts. located in a strip mall near the gas station. clean inside and prices were good, will say the 2.50 for a bear claw is a little high. would go back when in the area if in the mood for a donut, parking in this strip mall can get a little busy but not overly bad. read more

Love these doughnuts. Super fresh and fluffy, I got a dozen for $11. It is a steal and I love supporting local mom and pop shops. We will definitely be back for more! read more

The fritter was a little doughy but it was sweet and appley. The glazed donut was liked by Nini, " it was very fluffy." I prefer Swiss Donut when in La Quinta read more

Teddy's Donuts - HB and Teddy's Donuts - Donuts Near Me - Bermuda Dunes, California

Teddy's Donuts is located in a small strip mall on Washington and Country Club that houses Chef George, Joe's Sushi and a Subway to name a few. Here in their small store you'll find the smiling faces and wonderful disposition of all who are there to help you. I happen to be an apple-fritter fan and their apple-fritter is not only the largest, and weightiest I have ever come across but one of the the tastiest. I believe it's all family owned and operated and their donuts are worth a try. I can almost guarantee you will not be disappointed. read more

My second favorite donut shop in Palm Desert still better than any of the Swiss donut locations they have a good glaze twist here light and fluffy and then quite a few fancy donut choices as well and I think they're open 24 hours which is also great that Baker usually does the first set around 2 to 3 AM read more
