    Co worker brought Donuttery to the office yesterday. Solid move. One of the best donut shops in the county. Had to show some love and respect. Their vegan options are also phenomenal. Cheers BIG EARS

    Bowling in a travel league has its perks and the league always brings in donuts and this weekend, the donuts are from here! These are very good donuts. The yeast donut was light and airy with a little chew. Fabulous way to allocate daily calorie intake. Please come and create your own adventure.

    Not only does this place has the best selection of donuts in OC but the have the best lox bagel as well. They give you lots and I mean lots of salmon and they don't skimp on the cream cheese either. My go to place when I want a Lox bagel

    Why 5 stars? Because despite growing out of my donut phase, I really loved these. --- --- --- When I was younger, I could eat donuts with the best of them. Now, I feel like they directly hit my blood sugar like an atom bomb and always result in me feeling like a bucket of crud after. So when I was told I should visit The Donuttery, I wasn't *that* excited about it, but I ended up making my way over after all. I wasn't even really hungry, but I knew I needed to put some sustenance in my belly before ingesting donuts, because that's a recipe for maximum crudness. So I ordered the bacon burrito as just kind of the best option available. And that freaking bacon burrito was actually awesome. You gotta love when you find a happy accident like that. I just kept eating it despite not even being hungry. And then came the donuts. I asked what the most popular items where, and was told that the malasadas were, so I grabbed a couple of those, a mochi, something with coconut shavings and a couple other random ones. Most of these were amazing. Especially the malasadas (she was right). I really had no belly room left, especially after eating most of the burrito, but there was no way I was going to just leave the uneaten donuts in our hotel room, so I took the little bag they give you for ice, and threw them in my backpack. Many hours later, in my kitchen in Texas, I inhaled those bad boys and didn't regret one second of it. If I ever hear of anyone going to the area, this will be at the top of my recommendation list. As a matter of fact, I just did exactly this earlier today. Why 5 stars?

    If you're in the neighborhood definitely stop by and grab a treat for yourself. They have tons of options from standard old fashioned and kruellers to mochi, and gluten free options. We sampled a few and my favorite was the glazed old fashioned and blueberry cake. Oh, but the chocolate chocolate cake was rich with frosting! We sampled the croissant donut holes which were a delight. They have a non stop stream of customers, thankfully they're open 24/7.

    The store is almost always busy but they always have a great variety of selection of yummy donuts! It's a small chill spot to enjoy a quick coffee n donuts. I love all of these different donuts I tried and not pricey at all!

    I love a good ham and cheese croissant! The ham&cheese, jalepeno croissants here are delicious. The jalepenos are baked right in, and there is a ton of cheese to ham ratio. Get them fresh, if not ask them to warm it up for you. Croissant is comparable to Seaside. Service is fast and friendly. Store is quite tidy and all the accompaniments for your coffee and more are all on the table at the center of the store.

    Chocolate lover's dream. This 24-hour donut shop is filled with FRESH donuts. Service is so quick and friendly. The donuts are absolutely delicious. The blueberry and chocolate donuts were about $3 per and the chocolate chip bar one is $4. We devoured these. Note: They have a ton of vegan donuts!!!

    And more doughnuts

    I am still on the hunt or a good apple fritter donut. We were in the santa ana area and realized that this donut place had some good reviews and vegan options too. I had the apple fritter and blueberry donut Both were very good donuts. Apple fritter had pieces of apples inside and a nice crunchy texture on the outside and soft inside. I do wish there was a tad more pieces of apples. Blueberry donut moist and flavorful. Not too sweet and just really nice bounce to the donut. Service was fast and friendly. There are seats inside and out.

    It's been years since the last time I came to the Donuttery. I had good memories of the food and donuts so when I was in the vicinity, I decided to swing by. Kind of a mistake. It was after 10 on a Wednesday night and the place was fully packed. That seemed like a good, if annoying, sign. Luckily, they had two registers going so the line went pretty quickly. My standby donut order is blueberry cake donut so I ordered two of those, then I looked around. The place had been given an overhaul of sorts since my previous visit about 7 years ago. Gone was the family-run ramshackle look. In its place is a sleek design concept. Way fewer tables to sit and eat, which led to all the people loitering around inside and outside, standing and eating from paper bags. The outside people with no place to go sit made it hard to park as some were standing in or very close to parking spots. Removing tables was a bad idea. I think there might have been like 2 tables but there were so many people standing around inside and out, I didn't get a good look. Anyway, I also looked at the racks of donuts to see what else I would like to order. I saw a whipped cream-filled yeast donut that looked good so I got that and ordered an apple fritter sight unseen. Boy, I wish I had seen it before I bought it. That fritter was burned to heck and greasy greasy greasy. It's a donut, I expect greasiness but the burned aspect of it made it absorb so much extra oil. It was a disgusting mess. One of my blueberry cake donuts was also burned. And the whipped cream donut had a terrible plasticky chocolate coating. Those 4 donuts also cost me $15. What is going on here?? Before my return, I was sad I live too far to come to the Donuttery often but now I'm glad to for it. I'm sad about the downfall of this once great place. Staff was still nice so that's a plus.

    YESSSS these donuts are elite! Soo many options to choose from, the place is clean and relaxing, and service is friendly and patient! It was soooo hard choosing which donuts I wanted lol, but I ended up finally deciding on "chocolate chip bar, Nutella, Glazed, Oreo, and Blueberry"! They are sooo big and sooo delicious! Also tried the butterscotch iced latte, soo good!

    A fun spot for donuts with a very large variety that includes malasadas. The parking lot is on the smaller side, but there's still a decent amount of spots available. There's very limited counter seating available inside. They have a large variety of donut options and they also have several gluten free flavors. The service is quick and they're able to keep the line moving fairly quickly. We ordered one of each of their different malasada flavors they're a little bit more on the dense side and it can be difficult to tell which is which from the outside. I enjoyed the guava malasada the most. It had the most flavorful filling and was closer to a jelly consistency on the inside. The pistachio, vanilla, and passion fruit flavors were more of a lighter whipped cream like consistency inside. These were on the sweeter side and had more of an artificial flavor. The malasadas were good but I'd like to go back and try more of their regular donut options next time as well.

    Yes they have a sign with which ones are vegan.

    Any dairy free, gluten free, and keto donut? As in all this in one.

    No, I asked about a keto gluten free but all they have is gluten free. It is SO good!

    Just tried the new Keto donut. It was DELICIOUS, which brings me to my question. What sweetener is used in place of sugar? Also what flour type. Just trying to decipher the macros. Thanks love them!

    Hi! Thank you for the feedback. We use coconut, almond flour, and some monk fruit sweetener. For the frosting, it is stevia-sweetened semi-sweet chocolate and stevia-sweetened white chocolate.

    Is there currently outdoor seating?

    No, they only do takeout in person or order online takeout or delivery.

    Are your gf donuts made on separate workstations from the gluten donuts? Would they be safe for some with celiac?

    Another response from the manager said she didn't recommend the gf donuts for those with celiac because they can be cross contamination!

I also tried on a separate trip the lychee tea, which was OK. The reviews are right when they mention the drinks are very sugar forward very sweet and I did have the barista reduce the sweetness in my tea, but the syrup used for the lychee just doesn't make well for the type of experience that I'm used to when I purchase tea from other competing stores.

What I really liked was that I could taste the pandan! I also thought 75% sweetness was perfect for me. The size of the drink was also generous for the price as I'm used to smaller sizes at other matcha cafes for the same price. However, I didn't really taste the matcha which was odd because before mixing my drink fully, I took a quick sip and definitely tasted matcha. Once I did mix it though, the matcha flavor was gone, and I mainly just tasted pandan. Overall, mainly giving Airoma 4 stars for the service and efficiency! My drink was good, but not mind-blowing. Maybe their other drinks like their coffee are better, so I'd try them again if I'm in the area.

The cashier who helped me out answered questions I had and helped me pick out the drink. I got the espresso einspanner and it was average. The espresso is pre-batched and sort of had a weird bitter taste you wouldn't expect from coffee. The cream top definitely made it taste better. If they make the espresso latte base the same way without a cream top, I recommend to get a specialty drink or any drink with a cream top. It was kind of expensive for what it is. However, the service and interior outweighed my opinion on the drink, so I didn't think it deserved 4 stars for that. Definitely will come back to study again and try a different drink!!
