I'm so happy the new owners took over. You can tell we walked in and they were cleaned out no more donuts left. She was nice enough to satisfy our sweet tooth. Given us a couple leftover donuts that didn't make it out for free. We decide to buy the chorizo breakfast burrito. It was so big. My wife and I were able to split it. It had great taste, very fresh and was fantastic. I think we found our new place for breakfast burritos. New owners must go by and try read more

Gotta say, it takes a fantabulous donut to impress this lady who is not huge donut fan. Welp, changed my mind as their coconut sugar cake donut- Delicious, so crispy on outside and soft in middle. Best donut and served by one of the happiest people, Mona! This woman never stopped smiling- she was putting taster size glazed donuts on plate , along with our orders. She was professional ,yet, friendly. Her energy and that donut will have me back there again and again. Ambiance? Clean, well stocked, felt like small bistro- comfortable. There are two small two person tables in there and we were early enough at 9 to get one. The second we sat down, the crowd came and line was forming. I also had bought a ham and cheese croissant- huge, flaky, delicious! Put this on your place to go this weekend. Highly recommend ! read more

I found my new favorite local donut establishment. They make their donuts fresh every morning but make sure to stop by early because they do sell out. The apple fritter was better than my hand and I can see why it's one of their popular items. Their donuts are light with a cakey texture. The owner was friendly and helped me decided which donut to try because they have so many. A cute bakeshop with delicious donuts. I highly recommend you try them! read more

Young Donuts - Apple fritter donut - Donuts Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

The is an east side gem! The donuts really were amazing. I came for the yelp elite event and got two free donuts, one glazed and one strawberry glaze. I had to get an old fashioned for my hubby which they dipped in maple glaze and was to die for.. they also threw in a few donut holes which were super yummy and I got a cinnamon sugar long John as well. All were delicious! I live on the west side but would make the trip over to get these again. Service and place were great also! They had a couple of tables inside just in case you can't wait to eat them! read more

Seriously, the best donate in Tucson! They're completely on the other side of town for me, but i had the opportunity to stop by a few weeks ago and try them out. I had a toasted coconut doughnut that was so light and fluffy with lots of tender golden coconut. I took my bf home a couple because he is a true aficionado. He stops by another place everyday on his way to work to get a glazed donut and oj for breakfast. When he tried the glazed I brought him home he actually said "Holy F*c#!" and said it was the best donut he had ever had, This is a man who never travels more than three blocks out of his way for anything but today we drove the 9.8 miles to get him his glazed donut from here. In addition to great donuts they offer breakfast burritos which I had also brought home from my original visit. It was only $8 and loaded with some really tasty Machaca eggs and cheese. They also offer a something called broasted chicken which I hear is good but did not try. Mona was working the counter on my first visit and the owner Terry was there working today. Both were very nice and attentive. When I told Terry how my we drove clear across town just for her donuts she was so happy and appreciative. You can tell she's very proud of what they do. I wish them much success read more

I came here for lunch a few days ago. I had the Supreme Burrito ($8). The burrito was good. The main downside of this place is that there is no bathroom for customers. read more

These are our favorite donuts in town. They're less oily than most donuts, which we appreciated. The "raise glaze" ones are so fluffy and delicious, we love the texture and flavor. The owner is super friendly too. She asked what kind of donut we were looking for, we described it (glazed with chocolate filling), and she said "that's not on the regular menu but we can make it for you right now!" and they made a custom donut just for us. Nice personal touch...and it was delicious! Try to come in the morning, they start selling out in the early afternoon. Highly recommend this place! read more

Sorry folks, no photo of my first-bought Bavarian custard donut from this place that has super customer service. Drank my coffee and ate my donut before thinking about a photo... and left with many more donuts to try! Yeah! Sugar-high for sure with these very tasty, fluffy donuts! read more

It's been a while since I have been to this store. I was not disappointed. I tried the cherry fritter and tiger tail (big glazed donut with cinnamon and apple bits. Tried out the ham and cheese and the one with jalapeños. They were delicious. Didn't try the chicken...next time. I came to get special donut for BFF's birthday and here is the cherry and Bavarian cream treat. I pulled the candles out before taking the picture. read more

Best donut shop in Tucson! Their breakfast burritos are truly one of a kind--I grab them every Friday for my coworkers, and they always say it's the best burrito they've ever had. The donuts are big, fluffy, and made fresh daily. You can really taste the love and care that goes into everything they make. read more

Super fresh daily. Many varieties. I especially enjoyed the Wildcat Claw. It's got a fan shaped exterior and has apple filling. Definitely big enough to share With a couple of friends. Friendly service along with a and nice hot coffee read more

The best apple fritter I've ever had! The broasted checkin was crispy and juicy. Fresh made as I waited.

I have been going here for years. I stopped when I had a bad experience. I tried it again when I found out they were under new management, it has completely got rid of the bad and replaced it with YUMMY. I go there at least once or twice a week. I'd go more often but my husband found donut crumbs in my car. I didn't even have time to remember any of the millions of excuses floating around in my head to use. He knew I was on a sugar high. The broasted chicken is the best. Crispy on the outside and moist and juicy on the inside. It's SO good I was over the moon when I found out that they had kolaches on Friday and Saturday. Soft and tender can't even describe it. You have to experience it for yourself. They have the best breakfast burritos. I got one for my husband and he loved it! I do believe that he loves it more than he loves me! They make a certain daily kind each day. Nice, fresh, hot and made from REAL EGGS. Not bagged eggs. On to the DONUTS! My most favorite one is this cherry thing split in half, with cream and cherries almost oozing out of the sides. IT'S SO good. I can't even describe the taste. Just describing it makes my mouth water. The person in charge of baking is Robert. He is the baking magician. There are so many choices of donuts to choose from. It's a good thing that I don't work there. No donut would be safe. If you want something special, just ask them. If they could do it..they will!! Robert's wife is Terry "the boss". Every one there is so friendly. They treat you like family. I'm telling the honest truth. They don't just put on a happy face to get the sales. They love each other and they love their customers and it shows. I always stop there on my way home from the doctor. It's my treat to myself after they take blood out of me or any of the endless reasons I go there. (when get old, you'll know what I'm talking about). I'm at the doctor right now. You know what that means... read more

Young's donuts; WERE the best donuts I ever had, from former owners. THEY WERE THE BEST, see reviews, Thrill list in 2015, best shop in AZ! Love good donuts, only have donuts every few months. Have not been to Young's in few years, since moved back to Arizona. Told wife about them in the past. Today we were nearby, live other side of town. Stopped, saw sign in front "New management" " Young's donuts by Rise N Shine donuts", my heart sank. Went in, lady said New owners year and half ago. Donuts looked different: taller, thicker...hmmmm? Got assortment, 5 kinds, what was left on Saturday at 1 pm. Got home, tried one, NOT THE SAME, NOT EVEN CLOSE! Good donuts, NOT GREAT! NOT AS MOIST OR SOFT. Could tell because donuts bigger, taller. AI on Google later said "enhanced..." Sad. Won't be back, other shops just as good or better. SAD BECAUSE YOUNGS, OLD OWNERS, OLD RECIPE WERE THE BEST DONUTS I EVER HAD! At least I can say I had the best donuts ever, once upon a time. read more

The friendliest people (new owners/management)! They make sure you are happy and will make sure you know what you will like what you buy. I will definitely visit again when I'm in the area. They do sell out early on their donuts but the breakfast burritos were excellent! read more

Best donuts! Great local donut shop, friendly staff. Old school donuts that taste amazing.

The new owners are so friendly. They remember me when I come back. The donuts are fresh every day, made onsite and truly a cut above typical. They are huge, soft and wonderful. And reasonably priced. We love going here! There is one problem- they are so popular that they run out! read more

The owner is the sweetest! I live in Phoenix, but I had about two hours to kill while waiting for the Western Passport Center to finish up with my passport. I was feeling stressed when I entered, but I instantly felt the space's warmth and coziness. Whether you are an out-of-towner or a local, if you are in the area, Rise and Shine is a must-stop. Their donuts are amazing and don't get me started on their fried chicken. Some of the best I've had in Arizona. Also, the coffee snob in me was thoroughly satisfied with their house coffee. Nothing hits quite as right as donut house coffee. read more

The owners at this doughnut shop are simply the friendliest and we're very helpful for a first-time visitor. The doughnuts themselves are affordable and there is quite the selection to choose from including some unique flavors like maple bacon as well as an orange glazed doughnut that had a great taste to it. These were fluffy home-style doughnuts with a perfect amount of glaze on them. Not the most gourmet doughnuts you'll ever have, but you cannot beat the quality and price of these doughnuts! read more

My new favorite donut shop in town! They aren't "elevated" or a concoction of strange ingredients. Nope. They serve the classics very well (think fritters and buttermilk bars). Fast and friendly service. Keep in mind, they are closed on Monday. The ambiance is what you would expect from an active bakery. read more

The owner is so lovely and personable. I walked in and asked for Boston Crème, she didn't have any so she went in the back and made them in two minutes! I waited with coffee at one of the few tables inside, it's clean and comfortable. The donuts are so light and fluffy. We enjoyed the BC, glazed, and fruit filled. Plan to go back and try the chicken someday for lunch. read more

This place is so fantastic! The donuts are delicious pillows of flavor and texture and the service is friendly and efficient. And the Broaster chicken - best fried chicken I've had in years! The meat is so flavorful and moist - even the breast! The exterior is crispy and not greasy. The potato salad is yummy too! Here for my second time this week - will definitely be back. A definite Tucson treasure - don't miss it! read more

I ordered a delivery order for my son's birthday as a surprise. I stated so in the delivery directions. Burrito - best breakfast burrito I have ever had! Donuts - This is now my go-to donut. Best ever! They were super fresh, soft, and so full of flavor. I can't wait to try the chicken in the future. Customer Service: The person who filled my order read the delivery note. They wrote a birthday message for my son and included a dozen glazed donut holes. My son was stunned and thrilled. read more

I've been on the hunt for the perfect donut shop since moving to Tucson, and Young Donuts is it! The staff is incredibly friendly, and they made me feel right at home. Their cinnamon rolls are huge and delicious, and I was pleasantly surprised to find they'd tossed in some extra donut holes without saying a word. This place has won me over--absolutely recommend stopping by! read more

I'm on the hunt for my go-to donut shop since moving here a year ago! Walking in, you are greeted by a friendly staff. They have seating and inside appears nice and clean for a donut shop. Surprisingly, they make fried chicken and because a patron was raving about it, I had to order a drum stick! It WAS delish! They even sell egg rolls and I'm curious, but you need to preorder them a day in advance. Will do. Ok, back to donuts . . . Sadly, I was not impressed. I ordered 3 to do a taste test. Two bites of their Cinnamon roll tasted dry and old. Two bites of their Glazed Old Fashion tasted the same. Crumb twist was good, but not great. I definitely was sad because this means I have to keep searching! Good news is, I will return for their chicken! read more

Donuts were special. Nice selection of donuts and they were all very good. The owner was very welcoming and friendly. Worth a visit.

My husband brought these donuts back to our hotel last weekend. We'd seen the good reviews online and read how the owner graces you with freebies sometimes. We weren't disappointed! Each donut we tried was fresh and tasty. I personally liked the maple raised and LOVED the Tiger's Tail. (It's kind of a cinnamon apple twist.) Since my hubby bought the last Tiger's Tail we had to split it. So sad! We have a son at the U of A now so we hope to visit again sometime and not have to share the Tiger Tail! read more

Young Donuts - The fabled "half" Tiger Tail donut- mmmmmm - Donuts Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

BEST DOUGHNUTS IN THE SOUTHWEST! You must try their burritos and chicken!! Their chicken is perfectly breaded, not greasy, and super moist. The staff always great you with a big smile upon their faces and make you feel like family. The owners are the sweetest people and truly know how to make your visit memorable. ITS A MUST VISIT SPOT!!! read more

This donut shop is awesome! Great donuts, but even better breakfast items like burritos, kolaches, stuffed croissants, etc. I stopped every chance I get and there's always something new to try! the owners are behind the counter and always super friendly! read more

Been a few years since I've gotten donuts here. They are good, but not as good as Donut Wheel. Still, one of the better donuts in town. 5* = A top favorite. Mind-blowing good. I will definitely return and I will go out of my way to go here. Worth every dime of my money. 4* = Outstanding. Tucson-top-tier. Some elements not quite as good as it gets, but it still is worthy of my regular business. 3* = Good experience. I might do repeat business if it is convenient, the only option, the only one in its category, or on a whim, but would not be among the first thing to come to mind. Would definitely recommend you trying it to get your own take on it. 2* = Not so good. Would not recommend at all. Waste of money. 1* = How are they still in business? Stay away at all costs! read more

Everything tasted great. The donuts are light and fresh. I had a cream filled Bismarck, a white cake donut with maple frosting sprinkled with chopped peanuts, and a jalapeño hotdog wrap that I warmed up later. It was a very good too. read more

I came for the Buttermilk Bar. There's only a few donut shops in Tucson we will go to & that isn't often since wheat & oils aren't in our daily diet. Yet, if we are in that area, there's a good chance we will pop in to give them some cash. They only take cash. We've been coming here for years. They deserve their award status. Donuts are always delicious. Variety isn't as high as Le Caves or Donut Wheel, but they are cooked right, not overly sweet, oily or heavy. We get in maybe 3 times a year & love it every time. read more

Located in a mini strip mall where a pizza place, vape shop and other businesses reside, this donut shop is one of my favorites! I would give it a 4.5 start but had to round up because I don't have that option. Under new ownership for about a year, I have seen some impressive changes. They use good quality oil and non-GMO flour, and you can definitely tell in the donuts! Lots of flavor choices to choose from. I like so many and try different ones each time. Nice texture, no bad aftertaste. The owner and his family are from Cambodia. He makes most of the donuts and his sister works the sales. She is an absolute delight and will often sneak in extras, especially if you are a regular customer. Her customer service is great. She will talk to you about all kinds of interesting things and genuinely cares about people and especially her customers. The wife of the owner is also very nice and those two ladies are my favorites! They also have Broaster Chicken, which if you get around 9:30 am - 10 Am is hot, fresh and delish! When they do it right, it's the best chicken in Tucson! But don't get it at 3 pm unless you plan on re-heating it, which is never as good. What can be improved is the cleanliness of the store and food consistency. The tables and chairs, countertops, glass cases, etc all could be cleaner. The sister cleans but the owner doesn't and you really need both people doing it. The consistency of the chicken is something they need to work on, as well as the filled donuts which sometimes don't have enough filling. The biggest thing I love about this place is that these donuts don't make my stomach ache like other places, due to the high quality oil and flour they use. I can eat lots and not get sick. read more

Fried chicken... Yum! I had to come back during lunch hours for the Broaster Chicken. They're super juicy with crispy skins and the potato wedges are huge! The service is friendly as usual. read more

I have been wanting to try this place since I saw it on a list of Tucson's best donuts. Finally that opportunity happened and we popped in around 1:30PM on a Sunday afternoon to grab a dozen. Perhaps because it was in the early afternoon on a Sunday, they had a limited selection. There was still enough of a selection to get a nice variety. The donuts themselves are definitely light and airy, even in the afternoon I thought the taste and quality were on point. The gentleman behind the counter was very nice and sweet as well. So why did I give it three stars and not throw down one extra star? Well, the lights were off in this joint, almost like he was trying to save electricity along with the door being wide open and it was in the mid-80's this particular day. By doing this, he was allowing all the little flying critters to come enjoy some of his donuts as well. As we were selecting our donuts -- there were 2 bees and 3 flies inside the case... sampling the goodies. Kinda gross, although I figured it would not deter me from trying this place and their little feet prints would boost my immune system against whatever they brought in from the great outdoors. The guy behind the counter seemed totally unphased by his little freeloaders. read more
