    Ube donut
    Sanilie F.

    The hours are a bit tricky here, so it's best to call ahead and confirm if they're actually open. I have always liked their variety of food options, especially pastries. Staff is always friendly.

    Finally a break from the rain, after a week straight of gray skies and pouring rain. It's a short break, I welcomed with a short walk around downtown taking in some sun. I stopped by Vio to enjoy a donut and a warm drink. I was warmly greeted when I came in the door. There was only one customer at the counter. It bought me a couple minutes to decide on what donut to order. When it was my turn to order, I decided on a small (12 ounces) oat chai latte, and a double chocolate ganache donut. Double chocolate ganache donut- It was pretty good. Chocolate on top, chocolate & ganache filling , salted caramel drizzle on top. It was a lot of chocolate (Crazy to say as a chocolate lover!). This would have tasted much better warmed up. Note to self: either order this first thing when the store opens or ask to have it warmed up next time. It's a yummy concept, I wouldn't recommend eating at room temp or cold. Chai latte w/ oat milk- I requested to add oat milk, I believe for sixty cents more. This is my second time drinking the chai latte and I still am in love with it. It was such a nice kick of chai flavor. It's not at subtle, which I love so much. I was asked if I had or wanted a loyalty card. I didn't have one and accepted one To my surprise, the employee give me 2 stamps instead of 1...I love this loyalty program already!!! LOL. It appears you earn a stamp per item purchased, not by the number of visits. Making it that much faster to earn that free cake donut after 10 stamps! Sweet!!! I enjoyed my goodies inside. I sat at a table right by the window to enjoy soaking in some sun. The woman that had taken my order brought my oat chai latte to me at the table. :) I love the cute decor and makes it selfie worthy with your treats! Thanks for the great service and sweet treats! I shall return with my loyalty card in hand! :)

    Ube, almond pistachio crème, dulce de leche and berry-mango donuts
    Sandy L.

    My friend told me about Vio Pastries months ago but the hours are a little limited to the morning. She raved about the maple bacon donut. Months later and I finally had a free Sunday morning to come check it out! Located in DT Vacaville. Very easy free street parking. Oh the decor and ambiance are so cute! It's very dreamy. Instagram-worthy. I could say the theme is love. Flowers everywhere. Romantic songs (Taylor Swift's Lover and Elvis Presley etc). I didn't think such a cute cafe type place could be in Vacaville. For the donuts we ordered ube, pistachio, dulce de leche, and a berry one. Some were filled. Others were not. They also had plenty of vegan options. For drinks I got the passion iced tea. I really enjoyed the passion fruit iced tea. It had bits of seeds in it. You could tell it was homemade and not poured from a grocery store box. Very refreshing and not overly sweet. For the donuts some were a tad too sweet for my partner's liking. Two donuts per person was a bit much. I could only finish about 1.5 in a sitting. The only thing that would make it better were if I was luckily enough to have gotten the donuts fresh out of the oven so they were still warm. Very good chance I'll come another day with my friend and hopefully I can try the maple bacon donut she loves.

    Blueberry muffin is soooo good

    I am so glad this pastry shop is in Vacaville! The quality of their pastries is 10/10. I highly recommend trying this place out. Everything pictured in the review is vegan. This is a rare find for the Vacaville area as many cafes do not have vegan options, or a very limited selection of vegan options available. There are non vegan options at Vio as well I believe. Everything is so good it's hard to decide what my favorite donut is! So far the Mexican Hot Chocolate donut and the Blueberry muffin are my tops. I am looking forward to trying the new Oreo Cookie donut My boyfriend says the staff is always very friendly and the cafe is very nice. There are tables also to eat in cafe if you choose. We always pick up enough pastries on Saturday for Sunday because they are closed on Sunday. The pastries are just as yummy the next day though! I have reviewed this cafe before but they definitely deserve a second review for their continued excellence.

    Tip: 10% military discount. There's also water inside. Overall, there was a sort of Stale texture to the donuts where the exterior was not as crispy and fresh-tasting as I would want. I wish I liked this more! - Dulce de leche: I wish it was a little bit sweeter but my friends seem to enjoy it the most. - Ube: the filling was more sugary than I expected, more like an icing. I did appreciate this more than the others though. - Pistachio/almond creme: somehow the taste is a bit more muted than I expected as well.

    Variety of vegan donuts
    Melissa R.

    Excellent vegan donuts. There's a variety each day. I love the maple and strawberry. The coffee is also quite good. It's a very cute shop with a super nice owner. They are also at the Vallejo farmers' market sometimes.

    Since I was in the area, I decided to knock out this local bakery that specified churro donuts with ube filling. It is located in the city of Vacaville. Walked in and friendly staff greeted upon entering in. I'd like two lattes with oak milk and a ube churro and dulce de leche one, please. Out come? Not your average type of churro but was really good. Dough and whatever you use to make a churro went well together. The filling is not super sweet but perfect.

    Ambiance: This pastry shop is located in downtown Vacaville. They have donuts, cakes, churros, cookies, and coffee. If you're ever in the mood for pastry and coffee while in downtown Vacaville this is a cute spot for to stop, chat and have coffee and snacks. Food: The donuts are like old fashioned donut with a new twist. I really like the brown sea salt Caramel and my niece loved her chocolate donut with sprinkles. She also Loved the chocolate milk. According to her it tasted creamy :). That chocolate chip though is 100% recommended. It soft, chewy, and chocolaty. Service: there was only one guy in their, My bad for not catching his name. He was so nice and polite. He welcomed us in with a greeting and a smile. The place has a few tables with cute succulents in a tiny tea like cup. I love all the flower decor.

    Salted caramel pretzel cookie - yummy

    The bright storefront and signage: Vio Handcrafted Pastries and Chubby Churros caught our attention as my cousin and I were perusing Downtown Vacaville...it was a total squirrel moment and quickly jaywalked across the street...place was super inviting, cute with plenty of seating to enjoy your dessert and a beverage of various hot and iced teas/coffees. As soon as you walk in you can smell the comforting scent of wonderful baked goods.... I honed in on the cookies but then saw the various cake donuts, and "churro donuts"....their display of goodies definitely makes you want to try everything! For this visit I had to try a cookie and a chubby churro. :: Salted caramel with pretzel cookie - this cookie was DELICIOUS! Soft, chewy cookie, with bites of caramel with crunch from the pretzel - I'd travel an hour for this! Love the texture and flavor! Chubby Churro Donuts - unlike traditional donuts and churros these donuts are baked and not fried. Then topped with various flavored glazes, toppings and some filled. If you like a cruller then you'll like these...crispy on the outside yet airy...of course, if it's been sitting and cools it loses that airiness and gets a little dense :: Maple bacon - nice flavor with a nice, crisp bacon...for me the texture of the churro donut was heavy but soft..not bad just not what I was expecting :: Pistachio and almond creme churro - flavorful with sliced almonds and dusted with pistachio - if you like frangipane you'll love this! Unfortunately, I'm not a big fan of crullers in general but cousin really enjoyed...the thought of the churro donut sounded exciting, but for me didn't care for the texture...this coming from a person who doesn't like mochi! This place is 7 months new and definitely warrants another visit with their creative baked goods, wonderful customer service and inviting interior that you want to stay awhile. Cousin and I were chatting it up and didn't notice that we had stayed 30 mins after closing. Oops! We apologized to the owner who was cleaning and closing up and thanked her for not kicking us out. Lol She was so gracious and kind and we were on our way...wish I had bought more cookies for the road :)

    Maple donut and salted caramel chubby churro
    Ashley M.

    This place is really cute! The girl working there was really nice and helped me pick a few items. Everything was fresh and delicious. I got the chai and it was a little too milky for me, I like a spicy chai. But overall this is a cute little addition to downtown Vacaville. I really liked it!

    Ube Cake Donut & Dulce de Leche Chubby Churro
    Ashley C.

    I came across Vio by accident when I was looking up breakfast spots in Vacaville. I love a good donut shop especially with unique flavors, and I'm always interested in trying anything signature - and this place has "chubby churros." Such a cute name and who can resist a chance to have a churro in the morning? The shop is located in downtown Vacaville and very cute and colorful inside. There is actually a ton of seating inside too, more than your typical donut shop so we were able to enjoy our treats right away (and they had a high chair for our little guy!). The employees were very friendly and super helpful explaining their filled donuts when I told them it was our first time there. All the flavors looked amazing but we narrowed it down to two items - one cake donut in ube flavor, and one chubby churro in dulce de leche flavor. I think my only complaint here is the price is pretty steep for one donut - $4. I know they're specialty but I would've priced the cake donuts at $3 something and then the chubby churros and filled donuts would be $4. I'm not sure if the prices go lower if you bought them by the dozen but that would help too. But it's hard to say since I'm sure ingredient prices are likely rising at this time so maybe that's the new normal price. I'm not a huge cake donut fan so naturally by default I enjoyed the chubby churro more. But with that said, the cake donuts here were not as dense as the ones you'd find at a regular donut shop. They were still pretty soft and moist with the consistency of cake. The ube flavor was great too. I wish we were able to try more chubby churro flavors - they were so light and airy! Next time I am definitely getting more flavors to-go! If you're not a donut or churro fan (wait why are you here?), you're in luck, you can still try their other goodies like mini cakes and cookies, and they have coffees & teas as well. Great little spot to get a bite for breakfast or something for dessert and walk around the shops outside!

    Birthday doughnut
    Ezmi A.

    Stumbled on this pastries shop as I walk down Vacaville. I got the birthday doughnut and at first I was not sure how I felt about the taste but the next day it satisfied my craving! I enjoy a good old fashion doughnut. Can't wait to try more!

    I came here with my wife on our way to SF. She got in on this event I believe north bay or Davis / Dixon market. I order small coffee and I had the handcrafted chocolate with those drizzle on top of the donut. Like all donuts it was sweet. Too sweet for me a little bit but it was good. Come to think of it, I don't eat much sweet stuff such as candies , chocolate bars and donuts. The coffee was just right and warm enough for a cold rainy day. The staff was nice and gave quality service. This place is location at the historical area of Vacaville.

    How have I not written a review yet?!…read more If you are craving donuts, trust me on this, donut queen is where you need to head to! My faves are the glazed blueberry old fashioned, the apple fritter and the maple glaze! These donuts are so moist fluffy and airy all at the same time! The Apple fritter is a total hit and one that I was not expecting to love! Of course it's super busy on weekend mornings so I would advise calling ahead so you get the donut you want because they tend to run out (I.e. the blueberry donut). They're super fast and get through the long lines efficiently. Not to mention their hours are crazy, 4am-12am?! Wild!! I've ordered donuts from here for events and was super happy with my order. They are also on the to good to go app and the donuts are $5 a box but the downside is that you don't get to choose.

He was barely acknowledged the entire time -- only enough to take his order, which was wrong when he received it. The primary worker (also works at jelly donut) was extremely rude and dismissive, never even speaking directly to him, and instead had the trainee grab the donuts while continuing to ignore incoming customers because they were focused on a larger order. Being busy is understandable, but it's not an excuse to treat paying customers so poorly. Customer service matters, especially when people are choosing to spend their money supporting your business. Unfortunately, after this experience, we will not be returning.

    I've been coming here for a decade and their quality has only improved. The cafe is now larger and…read morea little more modern but they still left a touch of the aviation theme that started their journey. There is now a Tesla Supercharger so navigate to that instead of the cafe so that your Tesla preconditions while you enjoy your morning. They no longer support their own app and have turned the keys over to Square to create an account to make it easier to pay and reorder. The ready times you get in the app are later than it's usually ready so I recommend giving them 10-20 minutes lead time. Here's my rating of the variety of foods and drinks I've tried. Undertow - 8 - Fun twist on a cortado as the half and half is cold and they add a splash of vanilla. The hot espresso is carefully floated on top of the milk so that when you drink you feel the cold "underflow" of vanilla milk. Cortado- 8 - Small but powerful sip of espresso. I prefer it with half and half and a touch of sugar over Journey's method but it is a tasty sip. Lavender Latte - -10 - the best version of a lavender latte you'll ever have. Cherry Blossom Latte - 9 - The cherry syrup is very forward but blends nicely into the latte which gives it light finish. The coffee does get a touch lost so add an extra shot. Citrus Cocoa Latte - 9 - The orange syrup is prevalent throughout the drink but the cocoa starts to stand up more the last half of the drink. I don't prefer chocolate drinks but this doesn't taste like a mocha at all. Very well done Journey!!! Veggie n Egg Breakfast Wrap - 7 - Light and flavorful but needs some pop from another ingredient. I recommend using the Tapatio hit sauce to elevate it above our 7 rating for those that want some pop of flavor and can handle spice. Breakfast Hand Pie - 6 - The pastry wasn't crispy but it did have some crispy seeds on it to save the texture, a bit gummy for my liking. The filling was also creamy with more cheese than needed (and I love cheese). Although good, I wouldn't get it again because the flavor of the filling fell flat. First Class Wrap - 10 - If you can handle spice, the chipotle sauce is amazing amidst the variety of ingredients. This is my go-to and everybody I introduce it to gets it as well. Every business partner I've introduced this right off the freeway coffee stop has loved and kept as their own. It's a no brainer if you're headed down I-80.

I ordered my sandwich before the next customer, yet somehow, the next customer received their sandwich before I did, which was quite confusing.

I've had worse experiences, but my main issues were with the two ladies working in the back and at the register who were preparing the food. They just seemed really disorganized; otherwise, it should have been a typical donut shop.
