You might think this is a take away spot. Don't let that mistake you. Grab a coffee , take the door next to the bar and go all the way back to find the white door, which will lead you to a cute patio .

SFist

The donuts here come in dozens of new-school flavor combos like maple-bacon-apple, lemon sichuan , and chocolate rose . This is the go-to for office breakfasts and any other morning occasion. Read more

Colby Droscher

All the donuts are amazing. Maple Glazed Bacon , Orange Glaze and Chocolate Star Anise are my faves. The Four Barrel coffee here is the best on the street (don't tell Philz I said that).

Eater

This cafe is like a miniature trip to Vienna, complete with delicious Eastern European-inspired food and pastries served on delicate china by staffers attired in vintage finery. Read more

The gluten-free doughnuts have good texture and flavor - they rotate the flavors. The backyard patio is a SF secret, perfect quiet place to work if it's not too sunny. Good coffee here too!

Erik Cintron

Small little cafe in an area. Just donuts and coffee . Had an outside area in the back. Donuts were amazing. Friendly staff that broke down each donut for you. There have rotating ones weekly!!

Eater

"I love the small size and lightly fried style not to mention the well-made coffee drinks with Four Barrel espresso and the doughnuts ’ seasonal flavors ." -Tara Duggan Read more

DailyCandy

Local, seasonal ingredients and imaginative recipes make this Mission-based shop stand out from the pack. Not to miss: Spearin’s famed vanilla bean donut and delightfully fluffy bread pudding .

Order the Chocolate Rose Donut (a.k.a a chocolate base topped with sweet rose water and lemon zest glaze), it is always a crowd pleaser. Read more

Tyler Burgett

Vanilla bean , bacon maple , and candied orange blossom are super tasty. The garden out back is nice place to enjoy the morning.

Get the spiced chocolate donut . "Get there at 7 a.m. and have one right out of the fryer. It takes donut-eating to a whole new level." - Chef Scott Youkilis Read more

One of the best coffees in the area. Really good donuts too. In pre COVID times, the nice patio was open too.

Irina Botea

The coffee is the best in the area. Didn't try the donuts but everyone in the neighborhood praised them.

David Ban

Known for inventive flavors (i.e.Maple Bacon ), this is a must visit for any donut connoisseur.

Luke Andrews

If you buy a bag of coffee beans (they sell Four Barrel) you get a free donut .

Natalie

Delicious donuts . Take a box and enjoy them while burning off the calories while walking up and down SF's hills .

Nathan Ingraham

They have one of the best lattes I've had in the city . Donuts are great too, but for whatever reason I dream about that latte .

CITY GRIT

Wanna know a secret? Sarah kind of hates donuts . But Dynamo’s Donut Bread Pudding may have forced her to turn the corner. Get the Maple Bacon ! Everybody’s doing it!

Andrew Bristow

Over priced crap. 3.50 for a donut maple bacon donut ? I could buy a dozen maple donuts down the street at Jelly Donut , get an order of millionaires bacon from Kitchen Story, crush it on top, for less

Paul Farrell

These are good. Maple bacon Apple glaze and lemon pistachio were great. Sugar rush meant a 6km walk required to come down from the high.

Nitin Puri

The coffee and donuts are great, but the outdoor space in the back can't be beat. Peaceful haven in the middle of a busy 24th st!

Chuck Roslof

Delicious donuts with flavors like maple bacon apple and pink lemonade .

Spoon University

The photogenic qualities of these donuts gives you all the more reason to buy more than one, right? Be the envy of your gym-going friends by posting about a few of these little guys. Read more

The passionfruit and milk chocolate donut is like getting slapped ever-so-lovingly in the face with passionfruit and I cannot recommend it enough

Dave Zissou

they recently open a kiosk by the marina green side of town , but i gotta either way, you get a good satisfying chunk of donut every time u go (if u go) gO!

Best donuts ever!!! The Pineapple Basil (vegan ) is absolutely delicious!

Whether attributed to timing, luck, disposition, or divine intervention, the kaffir coconut doughnut at 07:30 was an exemplar fluffy, crispy , limey, warm ideal of wouldbe torroid.

Bennett W Wong

Vanilla Bean Donut and Latte - so delicious. A great combo for a quick meal break.

Serious Eats

Go to dynamo to try unique flavors like quince or cardamom , and get a cup of Four Barrel Coffee .

Joshua Haftel

Some of the only donuts I enjoy any more. Not too sweet, with some fun flavors. Great coffee .

Timothy Cavanaugh

The maple glazed apple bacon donuts are served every day; availability of other kinds (7-10/day) depends on "freshest ingredients available" & whim of the godlike pastry chef Sara Spearin & staff .

Mamie Rheingold

Get the lemon Sichuan . It is light and fluffy with a spicey lemon zing.

Amy B

Donuts are all very good but the flavors can be odd. Quality of the actual dough is amazing

ᴡ Miller

Make sure to take your donuts onto the back patio to sit and eat.

William Johnson

Get here early as popular items go VERY quickly. The lemon curd in the lemon sichuan was pleasantly sweeter than expected.

Bennett W Wong

Good food, good coffee , good service and friendly staff .

James G.

Try the passion fruit glazed donut with chocolate sprinkled on top. It's simply delicious :-)

Jole P

Overall, any chocolate donut here is my go-to. The chocolatyness is pretty rich and satisfying:)

Z

"serves Four Barrel coffee alongside donut flavors like molasses/Guinness/pear and Campari/grapefruit, and their signature maple/bacon/apple"

Zach Klein

Any filled donut . When the key lime custard comes around, buy it out and keep your bomb shelter well stocked.

Helen

Maple Apple Bacon Donut , best donut you've ever had.

Maya Shanmugam

I love all of the quirky combos here, although the passionfruit is an all-time fave.

The gluten free lemon buttermilk donut was one of the best things I've ever eaten!

Wendell Robinson

The Bacon Maple Apple donut is no joke! If you get it warm in the morning, even better. Had to wait 20 minutes this AM for those...worth it!

Erik Weber

Good donuts and the back patio is a great place to relax or do some work
