My son's beach volleyball team was having their last regular season practice on one of the beach volleyball courts around Mission Bay, which would be followed by an end of season party. This party was organized by one of the parents and we were told that we could bring whatever we wanted. The party was from 9 to 11 am, which made it difficult for me to choose what to bring. Since the time was within the breakfast time hour, I decided on donuts, but I was not familiar with any of the donut places near Mission Bay. As I always do, I turned to my Yelp app and found the highly rated TK Donuts.
TK Donuts is located in the Clairemont Mesa area, specifically a small outdoor strip mall. TK is next to Roberto's Taco Shop and a local Clairemont coffee shop. It's a quaint donut shop with three tables inside to enjoy their donuts. I noticed right away their fully stocked display case of donuts, which was a sight to behold with their array of colors, flavors, and styles of donuts. Inside the shop, you can tell the owners value cleanliness, which gives off the impression that someone cares. Speaking about owners, not sure if the Asians behind the counter were them, but what really stood out for me was their friendly customer service. I was greeted as I entered the shop and were so accommodating as I selected my donuts. After I ordered my two dozen donuts, they threw in two extra donuts, which was really nice of them.
As I said above, you notice right away the large assortment of donuts, which consists of traditional donuts and beautiful specialty donuts. For two dozen, I paid a little over $22, so a dozen is approximately $11. I didn't order any specialty donuts, but based off what I saw, I will definitely try those the next time I'm in the area. From reading their reviews, TK is also known for their breakfast sandwiches, which is another thing I need to try when I visit again. I ate their glazed buttermilk and a maple bar. The donuts were tasty and I really enjoyed them, but they were similar to what I've eaten at other local donut shops. I'm just happy that there is another option for delicious and quality donuts in another part of San Diego.
When we had the party after practice, another parent brought a box of donuts, which meant that my two dozen wasn't completely consumed and I was able to bring TK'a donuts home. If you're looking for a donut place that has an impressive collection of donuts, is a clean and welcoming place to hang out, and has stellar customer service, TK Donuts will be your go to place. read more
