JD Flannel Donuts and Coffee

Clean, welcoming, and care. You can see the passion that the owners poured into this business to make it one of the best donut stops in OC. Tried the cinnamon glazed donut and it was delicious! Some uncovered seating outside.

Best Donut Place Ever!?!Had a friend recommend this place and stopped here before a hike with a few friends. Donuts were so good and there was such a wide variety. My favorite was maple hands down. Everyone working there was so nice and helpful, definitely felt so welcomed. Overall the ambiance was great, we will be back!

A friend was really craving a JD Flannel gluten-free donut on an icky rainy day so I drove to San Juan Capistrano to get whatever she wanted. Upon arrival I sent her photos of the available gluten-free donuts. The gal at the counter let me know that even though there were only the raspberry, coconut caramel, and chocolate out the others are coming out of the fryer so she could have any of them. So she ordered maple, raspberry, and chocolate. JD Flannel claims theirs are the best donuts in California so while I was looking at the rest of the donuts, I ended up buying myself an old fashioned vanilla, Boston cream, and raised chocolate. The donuts are pretty pricy compared the average donut shop but it was an icky rainy day and I deserved a treat too. Before the freeway on ramp, after the first bite of my raised chocolate donutC I realized this place is no average donut shop! Within 2 miles I could not stop myself and ate the entire raised chocolate AND the old fashioned donut. I've literally never in my 55+ years of loving donuts have I had one better than these. Let's see how long the Boston crème lasts. I can't forget to mention the customer service and vibe. The employees were all ages from (maybe)19 to (maybe) late 60s--everyone was so genuinely friendly, kind, and eager to help. It's way out of my way but I'll definitely be back for a treat!

My longest friendship who resides in San Diego County, me in LA County says meet me here..... OH BOY am I tickled to death! This bustling business knows how to handle a line waiting to delve into their delightful selection of flavors! Quick, polite and attentive! You won't be disappointed, there is a tasty treat for everyone!

Came at the end of the day so there wasn't much option.Very friendly service-the person helping us was willing to explain the flavors and everything-given that it's our first time.If I were to live nearby, I'd definitely come back-the doughnut were fluffy and light but yet so delicious with every bite.

The donuts here were a big disappointment. Not just that they were over hyped, but actually not really good. Such a bummer as I was so excited to finally try them. The first donut I had was the creme brulee. The sugar crust was interesting and fun to try, but not actually delicious. And the filling was icy cold and unpleasant. I waited an hour to eat the rest of it because I thought it might be better if it wasn't so cold, but it was actually worse at room temperature. The donut got soggy and the custard flavor just tasted of one-note nutmeg. This may be the first fresh donut I've ever encountered that I didn't like. My second donut was the old fashioned, and it was definitely better! It actually had a really nice nutmeg flavor. If they had called it something like a nutmeg ring cake, I probably would have said it was great. But they called it an old fashioned donut, so I was expecting the dense deliciousness of one with fabulous craggy edges. Compared to that, the spongy thing I got was a big letdown. I couldn't help but wish I'd gone to a mom and pop donut shop and gotten one of their old fashioned donuts for a fraction the price. A part of me wonders if maybe their other donuts are better? But I don't think I'll be bothered to come back and find out.

I knew I had to stop by JD flannel after they were labeled the best donut shop in CA and they did not disappoint! It's such a cozy and friendly atmosphere inside and there was barely a wait for our donuts. We got the blueberry lemon donut and apple bear claw. They're extremely moist and fluffy and the apple claw was warmed up to perfection. The apples are gooey and soft from being cooked and the lemon from the blueberry donut was a great refresher. It was about $10 for both donuts, and there are some seats outside

This spot gets the reward for the sweetest and most welcoming owners for any business. When you walk in you feel like family, and that matches the quality and love that you taste in these donuts. We've come countless times! They have such a consistent rotation of recurring donuts but also delicious seasonal donuts which was my all time favorite the tropical delight. You can never wrong with a cinnamon crumb and boysenberry. Our kids consider this the best sprinkle donut in town. There is plenty of seating outside, and parking. Lines can be long depending when you go, but they move efficiently without feeling rushed. The employees take their time to explain every donut. Such an inviting and loving environment, mixed in with the smells of freshly made donuts can make you rethink if you really should just have one donut and order a dozen instead

These donuts were so so good! I'm a huge Sidecar fan & these are so much better by a long shot. They were warm & fresh. Service was quick & everyone was very friendly.

This place. It's heaven sent. The owner is so so nice, as are all the staff I've ever interacted with. They had their Christmas tree up and Christmas music on this morning when we went in after church, so that always puts a smile on my face :) great start!My hubby and mom ordered the Old fashioned, boysenberry, and the brown butter sea salt, and I ordered the GF cinnamon crumble and the Gluten Free Egg Nog. As a gluten-averse person.... This is just such a glimpse into heaven. Having not just on GF option, but THREE!?? (Actually 5 options if you include their GF + vegan donuts). This is unheard of in a non-dedicated bakery. I've been gluten free for over 15 years, trust me. All donuts were 11/10... as usual. Support small if you live local- this place is a must visit.
