Donuts were good but the vibes were even better! Super nice staff made the experience really fun. There's a new girl (I think her name is Daniza), who was so friendly and sweet, I definitely bought way too many donuts because she made everything sound amazing! I'm not mad about it, she was right! read more

This review is long overdue! My daughter and I always feel welcome at The Donut Chain. We're greeted with a smile, a good attitude and genuinely great customer service every time we visit. That matters most to me and this team gets it right. And the donuts? So tasty! It's a pleasure to support a local business that makes both the food and the experience so good. I recently heard that someone came in and harassed a young employee, and that really bothered me. No one deserves to be treated that way at work. I wanted to take a moment to share the experience my daughter and I have consistently had kindness, great service and yummy donuts. This team deserves some love! read more

Decided a blueberry donut was needed to go with my blueberry coffee, so I headed over to the Donut Chain. I must admit, I was lured over by someone else's photo here on Yelp of a blueberry donut, so thank you for that ;) It was mid-morning when I arrived, so the cases reflected that the most popular items had been snatched up by the early birds, but there were still plenty of donuts and bagels to choose from. Best of all, there were still blueberry cake donuts to be had!! Donuts are similar to potato chips in that you can't just get one. I also ended up with a maple old fashioned and a raised that was dipped in maple glaze and further adorned with Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cereal. I'm saving the old fashioned for tomorrow (I figure of the 3, this one will do best on the second day). The blueberry cake with blueberry glaze was perfect with my morning coffee ~ I'd definitely pair these two together again! The Cinnamon Toast Crunch raised was light and fluffy, the cereal giving it a nice added crunch, and it was a much appreciated afternoon treat. The girl working the front of the store was very friendly and didn't look at me funny as I started snapping pics of the shop to go along with my review. When she finished my transaction, she went over to finish chatting with a customer. When I noticed a few ceramic coffee mugs hanging on the wall, I asked if they belonged to their regular customers. Indeed they were, one of whom she happened to be chatting with. Gotta love that! I left Donut Chain not just pleased to have scored a blueberry glazed donut, but also happy to witness the genuine, easygoing rapport that the employee and customer were enjoying. read more

Not sure if I have ever said this before, but here it goes. These are the best donuts I have ever had! They were so extremely fresh and soft and perfect in every way. They were out of maple bars which are my go to donuts but I tried a few different ones and they were all just so good! The blueberry donut was not too sweet and artificial tasting. The plain donut was fluffy and disappeared before I knew it. I can't wait to try their maple bar next time! read more

Review 104/365 Day Challenge It's been a good minute coming to TDC. Every time i come here, greeted always w good vibes. Especially the service is always impeccable. Met a gentleman named Noah who helped assist mee. Really kind & personal. Loved his interaction of him helping mee pick a donut for my middle son named Lennon "Noah" hehehe Love that they offer Gluten Free along w protein donuts. It's been awhile and they also now have lots of varieties of lattes along w Avocado Toast. Varieties of breakfast sandwich that I'll have to return to give those a try. This morning i came in mainly for a particular donut for my son. ~ Bear claw ~ Apple Fritters were both huge and so yum! Definitely recommended. were the 2 i grabbed along with of course I had to grab the ~ dozen donut holes. Our families all time favorite. I mean who doesn't love the fluffy small ball shape donut that is so easily to pop into your mouth as a 1 bite donut. The shop is always so cute with decor themed to the holiday season. This time it's Fall vibes. Has some cute merchandise including tumblers, cups, tshirts, sweatshirts. Must check out. The have tables and booth like chairs inside the shop and a few tables outside w an umbrella for shading. Located right be to RichFarm Ice Cream shop and a nail salon. Same plaza as Pizza Hut. Definitely a recommended shop for locals or supporters near and far. read more

I've been here before and initially had a great experience. However, I haven't been back for a while as I don't live in the area but I'm currently 9 months pregnant and was craving a cheese croissant and a good donut. I returned back to this place remembering it was good. I walk in and ask if they have a cheese croissant. Not ham and cheese, just cheese and the girl tells me we have ham and cheese if you want that and I said oh, I can't have ham and she looks at the croissants and tells me, we can make you a cheese croissant if you want. Not sure why that initially wasn't offered as that's what I specified when asking for one. When I paid, I wasn't asked if I had a punch card, nor was it mentioned. I bought a small milk and another girl came out and rung me up for the milk and asked if I had a punch card, when I said no, she gave me one and I told her I didn't know they had a punch card as I just purchased 3 items. I waited 5 minutes for my croissant only for them to bring it out to me cold with 2 slices of cheese in the middle not melted at all. I had already left, had to turn back around and ask them, are your guys ham and cheese croissants served cold too or ? & the girl looked at me and said oh it didn't melt all the way? The croissant was cold to the touch the cheese was just slapped in there it wasn't melted at all. Not even a bit. Didn't apologize or anything. They brought it back out to me and the entire bottom of my croissant is burnt. Doesn't taste appetizing at all. This felt intentional. Again, no apology. I will absolutely not be returning back here which is disappointing bc I initially liked it but the energy felt weird today. read more

The Donut Chain - Burnt croissant - Donuts Near Me - Placentia, California

I stopped in to pick up a dozen donuts for the office. I thought the price was reasonable at $21.50, or approximately $1.79 each. That's definitely a savings compared to the cost of a single donut. I indulged in the cinnamon crumb variety, and it was so soft and melt-in-your-mouth delicious. It was definitely on the sweeter side of the spectrum, but that didn't stop me from inhaling the entire thing! The coffee was the perfect breakfast blend - so fresh and not bitter in the least. It also delivered an instant and much needed energy boost! Even at 7am, I still received service with a smile. What a gem of a shop this is! read more

Good donuts. Danitza helped me out and guided me through all the choices and even gave me some recommendations that I ended up loving.

Food, service, all so very friendly, they welcome you as you walk in, so much energy and laughter we're a regular there and when we walk in they already know what we want. I love the place and what they've done it's very homey we sit there and enjoy our donuts and coffee and the company. Food is good try the chorizo burrito read more

Great donuts!! They have small gluten free donuts which I gave to someone whose gluten sensitive and they said it was great.

I recently visited the Donut Chain and asked for help with a mini gender reveal for myself. The two girls helping me this morning were absolute amazing! They went above and beyond putting a box of donuts together for me and it made the moment even more special. The donuts are so good as well! My daughter loves the chocolate donut with sprinkles and my husband loves the glazed donuts. read more

Came here on a Saturday afternoon for some donuts. The guy at the counter was very nice and welcoming. They have some seating area so you could enjoy there. This is a small local donut shop in the area that I would for sure come back. The donuts were very fresh and fluffy. I liked that they were not dense and they didn't feel greasy. I loved the cinnamon ones the best, but they are all great. They are not too sweet. read more

These are hands down my favorite donuts. The Maple Sea Salt, Apple Fritter and the Blueberry are my go-tos, but to be honest everything is great here. The gluten free options are also equally as good and have a good texture. Not to mention the owners are just overall good people. In my short time at the shop, I was able to witness how rooted they are in the community. read more

I originally wasn't looking for a donut shop but actually came here for some iced coffee because it was close by, however, they had some interesting donut flavors that you wouldn't find at any other mom and pop shop so I had to buy a couple! The front of house staff working was extremely patient with me and answered any questions I had promptly. I had a few classic donuts but the two that got me interested were the blueberry glaze and cinnamon twist donuts. They were unlike anything I've had at any other donut shop and both were great. Every single donut was fresh and very delicious! I also had a large iced coffee and that was great but a little watered down for my liking. Don't sleep on this location. I 100% recommend this spot if you're looking for a small donut business to support! read more

Love this place. Great local spot for donuts and breakfast croissants and sandwiches. They are always greeting you with a smile and free a donut hole for the kids (stickers too for the kiddos). They have all your favorites here. The cake donut with sprinkles for all the dads. A good blueberry donut done a few different ways with regular glaze and another with a blueberry glaze. The avocado toast is great pick up too! Drinks too if you need them. The seating inside is a little limited but it turns over pretty quick. Most of the time it's grab and go read more

I normally like this place a lot and the food is always fresh. I was disappointed because I ordered through DoorDash for a pickup and ordered a cronut but only realized it's weekends once inside the store. They cancelled it which was fine but was looking forward to it. Also the gentleman who helped me, once he knew I had a DoorDash order, was a little dismissive. I thanked him and told him to have a great day but he didn't even look at me or respond so that was a bummer. I get that sometimes people can be annoying when they pick up third party orders but this was my own order. The breakfast burrito was really good and the coffee was tasty as well so that's why I gave it 4 stars. read more

As a major donut enjoyer and lover, I found my favorite place in all of Orange County called the Donut Chain. I have been traveling to find the best donuts around my area and finally found the one. If you love perfected chocolate glazed donuts, this is your go to donut place. They manage to always have good fresh donuts when I'm craving them. And don't pass up on the delicious blueberry, my second favorite Donut they make to perfection. I'll be back for more soon since the atmosphere and service is always top notch and welcoming as well. I'm eating my chocolate glazed as I type. read more

Off The Chain!!! Okay - If anyone has ever read any of my reviews, I'm a donut guy. I travel all over the world and I always make a point of seeking out independent donut shops. It's a hobby and a curse. I'm not on the hunt for the best, but I love to find great spots that are known locally but overlooked by others, in favor of commercial "Big Donut" garbage donuts. When I visit customers/clients, I like to bring in donuts. As I work in manufacturing, I've yet to find a facility that turns away a few boxes of donuts. I also will never bring in the aforementioned garbage that "Big Donut" slings out to the masses. The only thing most of those are good for are slam-dunkin' right into a garbage can. When you seek out a local independent donut shop, and a good one at that, people notice. It may sound silly, but people notice this subtle attention to detail and quality. The Donut Chain was spot on. I didn't try all they had to offer because along with killer donuts, they also offer breakfast. A guy behind me ordered a breakfast sandwich. I couldn't help but think, "why?" Why, while you're in front of this large case of gorgeous delicious donuts, would anyone even think of a breakfast sandwich? I told myself that he had to eat his breakfast before a donut. Fair enough. Me - I'd rather just eat my 3 to 6 donuts and call it breakfast. Fresh and delicious, The Donut Chain did not disappoint. This will now be my go-to place in the Anaheim area. I picked up three dozen donuts for the customer location I was visiting and they loved them. One guy even noted that he was familiar with his place as that's where he and his kids get their donuts. He said that it was a little bit of a drive for them but totally worth it. I couldn't agree more. Would I go back? I can't wait to go back. In fact, I'll be out that way in about a month and plan on hitting them up again. This time, just for me!!! read more

There wasn't anything wrong on my first visit to this new spot. Located next to a longtime favorite (Rich Farm Ice Cream), I was happy to try out another donut place. A festive display faces the parking lot and the employees greeted me warmly. I tried a bunch of chocolate and standard donut holes. And got a couple of Christmastime donuts. And overall the experience was good. Just fine. Nothing went wrong but I wasn't blown away by the taste. This was 8:30 on a Saturday and the donuts were not especially fresh. It's good. It's just not my favorite place. read more

I was looking for a local donut shop that would create a congrats arrangement for my Airbnb guest. I contacted the owners who said they'd never done anything like that but would be willing to try. I had no idea they had literally just opened a week prior. I appreciate the honesty and transparency from them. I especially appreciate the effort and art work they went above and beyond to make it happen. Forever grateful. They came through and I loved how it turned out. My guests loved it and said they were the softest & best donuts they've ever had. :) The arrangement turned out well for being their first time. Thank you Yara and team for going above and beyond. Both Yara and her husband Nathan are very personable and friendly. Their staff are sweet and helpful as well. You'll feel welcomed from the start. These donuts are soft and delicious, I keep coming back. The croissants ham & cheese (also have jalapeño) and coffee are just as good. They have fixed up the place and it looks great. They even added breakfast items to their menu. My husband and I were there on Sunday morning about 10 am and they only had a few donuts and croissants left. They sold out a few days in a row so get there early. Check them out for all your breakfast needs. You'll keep coming back! I was there this morning the place looks different and much more modern. Love what they've done with it. read more

Service A1. Friendly, attentive, sweet. :) Was craving some donuts and opted for this location. While they were a little too sweet for me, it's a doughnut, they kinda have to be haha.

I love the decor of this place, it makes it more inviting. How did I not notice that this was a donut store all this time but now it's revamped. I go to Rich Farms all the time but never knew it existed. They sell really pretty customized and decorated cups and shirts here and I definitely got myself a pretty cup. I am currently not eating sugar and cutting back so sadly I wasn't able to enjoy all the things that I was thinking about getting. But good news is that they had a sugar-free donut and it wasn't bad. But it doesn't beat an actual donut or chocolate croissant which is what i wanted. I will definitely be back on a cheat day. Oh and everyone here is so nice and helpful. read more

Came here to pickup breakfast for my parents who live close by. Ordered two avocado toasts and was pleasantly surprised by the add-on options. While i waited, i was offered a free cup of coffee ... what a nice gesture. i overheard an employee talk to one of the customers & it sounded like they have been friends forever. Places like this brighten my day -- reminds me of how things used to be. As I'm typing this review they are playing waterfalls - tlc. My point has been proven. Support this business. read more

Cute little shop. Went here with a girlfriend that day they happened to have some super cute Taylor swift bracelet inspired donuts and some swirled heart donuts too. The staff was very welcoming and kind. Not too bad prices, they make a yummy Blueberry donut, definetly the best in this area! Hands down. I usually compare my Blueberry donut to Randy's donuts and this one did not disappoint. We messed up and forgot to try the cronut skewer that we've heard so much about. So we'll definitely have to be back some other time for that! read more

I recently discovered this place a month or so ago. I've tried multiple donut shops over the last few years that had good reviews online but I was never too impressed. This place, however, the donuts taste fresh, like they were just made that morning. Made me start thinking that some places recycle left over donuts from the day before. read more

Great service I've instantly become a fan of this place. I was hearing the buzz around this new shop and decided to check it out since it's just down the street. Long story short, I ended up in an elf on the shelf predicament and needed Christmas themed donuts. Unfortuantly, they didn't have any left. I asked the lady working if they had any, she confirmed they didn't, but then immediately offered to make me some. 10 mins later I was leaving with some freshly decorated Christmas themed donuts. It was awesome. I'm such a big fan of this type of service- it's rare to find. This has become the default donut shop and I'll absolutely be back. Be sure to check it out. read more
