Alamitos Donuts

I've came here about 3 times so I can give an honest accurate opinion. The donuts here are ok. But everyone has a different preference. I like light fluffy airy donuts with a itty bitty crunch (from being fried) unfortunately their donuts didn't meet that standard. Their donuts are kind of dense and not a lot of flavor. We usually come during the week when I drop my son off for school, but once I came on a Saturday and the donuts were definitely old... kinda like the ones they didn't sell from the day before. The customer service was great they are ALWAYS FRIENDLY! Parking sucks lol. There are some great businesses in the plaza so it's usually packed. Vibes are typical donut shop vibes.. limited seating lottery stickers everywhere. Their iced coffee is very thick like they put in a bunch of syrup.

This is ONE busy donut shop. We frequent the donut shop and often walk out with 10 dozen donuts for work events. I have nothing but positive things to say about this donut shop. The staff here is efficient and pleasant. They can manage multiple customers at one time, including me -- hogging up all the attention by purchasing 10 dozen donuts!The donut quality is standard -- a donut is a donut! The price is about the cheapest you're going to get anywhere. $15 /dozen donuts is actually a bargain these days. Winchell's now charges $18 (wasn't that long ago a dozen donuts was $5 or $6)!!! All things considered, this is our local donut supplier. Good people, good business. Wish them all the best!

Another local favorite that I find just "ok" there are 3 or 4 other donut shops in the area that I would prefer over Alamitos Donuts. They have their regulars and their fans, but for me they are always last choice. The donuts never seem to have much flavor in them for me. The parking in the lot is rough and at time almost unbearable. The place is always clean and the people inside are nice, but overall between the lack of flavor in the donuts and the tough parking situation - Alamitos sits prettyow on my list of donut shops in the area.

I frequent the coffee shop next door and always see lots of people coming in and out of this donut shop. Randomly decided to pop by and was pleasantly surprised. Quick, friendly service and a wide variety of donuts... this is now my go to spot for pig-in-blankets and cake donuts!

I was actually looking forward to finally trying Alamitos Donuts coz it was my cheat day. I got a glazed and sugar twist bar. The twist bar was different coz it had cinnamon sugar; I thought it would be a nice complement to the sugar. The glazed, though not special looking, is always my go-to flavor. Well... Let's it's say that I wasted a cheat day. The donuts were both stale, flat, and not fluffy at all. It was quite a disappointment. I can't complain about the friendly lady behind the counter, but I know that I'm never going back there for donuts. Prices were about $1.10 for each and expect to pay a bit more for the fancier kind like jelly-filled.

Simply, I was curious not about donuts as this is what this place is known for, ahem duh... Alamitos "Donuts." But I am NOT a complete donut fan. The one thing I love are croissants. They had a plain one, egg, cheese and ham, and a "sausage" I believe with bacon cheese croissant. OMG! This is not to be missed folks. Maybe too early to order a sausage, but not the kind of farmer johns pork links. To me, it is probably a kosher beef hotdog of some sort. It was so good warmed up as the woman asked me if I wanted it warmed up. If I were you, eat it there or in your car. Taste so much better fresh and hot. The croissant with the cheese and bacon, holds a new form of yumminess in my belly at 10a! HahahaSad part was, it is not as big as the egg & ham and wished it was the same size. I was sad I ate it so fast and no more left. Parking here is not great, not the plaza's fault but for a main street of Los Alamitos/ Cerritos, you need more space for patrons. I believe there are places to sit outside and indoors as well. Customer service was awesome too and they are hospitable.

I love this donut shop. Owner Michael is very friendly as are the usual staff that help out behind the counter. Fresh donuts, great prices. Very quick service. *as of last week of May 2020 (my last visit) shop staff were wearing masks while serving customers. However they allow customers in who aren't wearing masks and it's a small shop so if you are uncomfortable with no masks from others and no social distancing possible then reconsider this place for now. If you don't care about those things then enjoy the great donuts.

Do you remember being a child and biting into your first jelly donut?The joy in watching the red jelly flow from the donut down your chin?That is what you will experience at this Donut Shop.ABSOLUTELY the best donuts EVER.

Dropped in early and picked up a pile of deliciousness for the gang. All the classics available at a reasonable price.

This is a donut shop! I've been to few around the area and have been disappointed to see them so empty :( but that is not the case here! Donuts were good, service was quick and best of all they actually have French crullers!! I had to have one of each, truly made my day!
