They definitely go outside the box in a classy way. Monte cristo doughnut was special made to order feature on Thursday. Great twist that kicked butt. Went back next day 4 another ....but no dice.
Sorry, L.A. and San Francisco, you’ll have to go to San Diego for the best doughnuts in the state . The best things in life are worth the wait, like the Donut Bar’s strawberry split doughnut . Read more
Best vegan artisan style donuts in San Diego, they can't be beat! Try the chai or coconut , they offer a different vegan flavor daily so go often to try them all!
Amazing! Definitely worth a stop by if you're visiting San Diego. The s'more donut is probably my favorite of the ones I tasted.
We tried the Homer (pink sprinkle ), Triple Chocolate Threat (all chocolate ), Cookies & Cream , and Mud Pie (peanut butter & choc ). Pretty good at a moderate price ($10). Expect to wait in a line !
The cinnamon sugar and strawberries was delicious! But cream was preserved - fresh always tastes better. Consider changing. Red velvet was rich, but as its small it was easy to finish.
its so much fun to go to the donut bar as they have so much to choose from and you can go upstairs to a nice little spot to sit and enjoy your delicious treat.
Everything is good! When they say best donuts in the world they mean it!!!The strawberry whipped cream may be my fave. Too hard to decide! Lemon meringue is pretty fantastic too. #bestdonutsintheworld
Hip donut shop serving unique variations and seasonal inspirations along with a variety of local draft beers . 🍩 🍺
The maple bacon donuts may not be in display, but they will have some sort of hidden away. Must try. These really may be the best donuts I've had. Line can be very long!
This is ground zero for owner Santiago Campa's Big Poppa Tart Donuts ; a glorious monstrosity that's a big donut with either a strawberry or s'mores Pop Tart stuffed inside. Read more
The peaches and cream donut was my favorite! Maple bourbon was equally scrumptious. They're gigantic though, so be prepared for leftovers or an insane sugar high! This place is off the chain!
amazing donuts ! they have vegan donuts as well . get there early before they run out! amazing! best in San Diego !
Oh my God, best nutella donut ! They didn't try to reinvent the wheel. They just made the best donut they could! Perfect!!
Nice donut places with huge donuts . They even have some that have a pop-tart baked into@them!
Huge delicious pillows of joy! Can't go wrong with any donut especially the salted caramel !
You just can't get one. Get one of everything or more if you're buying to bring to others. The maple bacon donut is their signature, but lots of creative goodies every day.
We got there about 3 minutes to the doors opening. The line was about 10 people. Yes, the line for doughnuts ! I recommend the maple bacon , mini Boston cream, & mini lemon merangue.
Best donuts in San Diego! The Nutella overload is.. I can’t describe it you just have to try it for yourself!!!!
kinda expensive for donuts but it's very delicious!! n good customer service ! * creme brelee*, nutella , *strawberry split*, *cronuts * - dulce de leche & white chocolate/bavarian cream!!!! ♥
Big papa tart donut ! Get the poptart inside the donut ! The also serve French toast made from a donut along side stumptown coffee !
I got a few things and they were all delicious, but the Crème brûlée donuts are out of this world, crunchy yet creamy! I could eat them all!
Delicious donuts (had the nutella , glazed and boston creme ) and coffee !
Fantastic donuts . Long ass line on weekends. Favorite is the maple bacon donut
Try the Maple Bacon donut or any of the Cronuts . Its all SO good! Also if you buy 12 you get one free aka a Baker's Dozen
Go for breakfast/brunch before they sell out. Worth the wait!(and line moves pretty quickly)
Literally the best donuts I have ever tasted and some really unique concoctions . Love this place!!! Fun environment too!
Get a free donut of your choice when you grab a dozen (free coffee when you check-in on Yelp as well )
Donut Bar is definitely overrated, but the creme brulee is good. It's also not the size of your head like some of the other ones so you won't die trying to finish it.
They have free donuts for kids every Sunday and like to do awesome theme donuts !
Incredible selection of donuts . There’s often a queue out the door but it’s worth it
Donuts are worth the wait. Go early for the best selection.
Really like the Nutella overload . Best donuts !
You cannot go wrong here. The maple bacon was a stand out and so was the strawberries and cream
Beer + Donuts . This place is all love and the staff is great.
Don't be deterred by the line-goes quickly. Great donuts & coffee . Even a doggie donut for your pup.
Haven't met a donut I didn't like from here. Cake Batter , Nutella , and Maple Bacon are in my top 3.
A small coffee is only a dollar but the line is super long because of all the fresh baked gourmet donuts .
Great doughnuts and not too expensive considering their size. Get ready for a long wait in line though. Nitro iced coffee was a waste of money, don't get it
Anything you get here will be good it just depends on your taste 😊
They open at 7 so get there early. Once they run out of donuts , you''re SOL. However, you can ask for a "1 free donut " card for your trouble.
French Toast Donut was fantastic!
Is 7 am the best time to be here or is it 2 pm when the next days menu is ready for sampling? Things that make you go Hhmmmm?!?!
Everything I've tried here is amazing. Although, I'm determined to meet with their Nutella someday.
Unique & Classic, both amazing. Not sure what their secret is but keep it up!!
Tries too hard to be an Instagram tourist attraction . Super busy. Donuts are good, but a bit over-the-top in frostings and size. Affordable.
Don't let the line scare you! Also, donuts are LARGE.
I don’t get the hype! Felt like the donuts tasted okay. They were huge and looked gorgeous but tasted meh. Didn’t like the butter beer one. Cool that there’s an actual bar .
Get there before 10 AM for best pick. 3 Words: Vegan Chai Donut .
Amazing ever never 🤤❤️
Their strawberry creme filled donut is the bomb! - Roger Ma
Get the cream cheese filled croissant! If you're in the mood for something even sweeter, try the chocolate filled croissant. - Tinie Tao
Best glaze donuts in the county.....great service an better donuts. jelly filled is awesome - mikey lambo
Had an amazing day here - arrived right at 9 and didn’t leave until 6. So many amazing things to see! Recommend doing the animals in action tour. Totally unique and totally worth it. - Sara Taylor
Tons of museums, gardens, etc could spend a whole day here! Love the architecture. - Mary S
It's Starbucks, you pretty much know what you are getting here. This spot is mainly for the local businesses though and closes early. - House of Blues San Diego
