Morning sweets is a yes on any day. Today we were treated amicably by a young man behind the counter. There was a line of people while being friendly and fast. The donuts were pretty good and the breakfast sandwiches hit the spot just right. This little place is tucked in the corner is clean and welcoming. What else could we want to start our day. :) If we are in the area we would come back.

Best I've had in East county! The dough is where it's at and theirs don't feel or taste like they've been over baked in a ton of oil.

Small shop but delicious fresh donuts and quick friendly service. They also have cream cheese bagel, 3 croissant options, and a breakfast sandwhich. There's hot coffee, tea, or hot chocolate available as well. Every donut was so soft you can't go wrong with any of them.

Absolutely LOVED all their donuts! I did think the cinnamon rolls were a little on the oily side but I'll come back again to see if it was maybe just an off day! I rarely crave a donut so now I'm beyond happy to know there's a place near me that meets my standards :)

We love donut Bros. The services is great. The donuts are absolutely delicious and the price is fair. My favorite are the buttermilk donuts. They make the best here I've ever had.

I have a donut lover in the house and he quite admires Donut Bros. I've been a couple times and he raved about how delicious and fresh the donuts are. The service is excellent and there's plenty of parking. It's a small place, but they have a little seating inside and outside. Prices seem reasonable and typical. They have kid friendly donuts too.

We ordered from Donut bros over Covid. They have some of the best donuts in East county. They have a great variety and I have liked all of them. I've never been in the shop only ordered delivery. Service has always been good.

This is one of those places that I'm so thankful for, and simultaneously not happy! The donuts are perfect. AND they are available on Door Dash! But that's just bad news if you're trying to lose weight! What a dilemma.... Well, let's get to the stuff. The glaze donuts are just right. Moist. Great rise on the dough. Great flavor. Way too easy to eat! And then there are the jelly filled. I love jelly filled donuts. I've had plenty of bad ones from donut shops. Honestly, these Donut Bros are just right! You got the same perfect dough and then the filling is not too sugary sweet and they have nice fruit flavor. I love the raspberry. Just tried the mini apple fritters today. And once again, they are just right! They got all the flavor, chunks of apple, crispy edges and soft insides. They break apart for perfect lil' bites with my coffee. Haven't had a bad donut here. So... yah. I'm doomed.
