Jimmy's Donuts

We've been enjoying Jimmy's Donuts for many years!My husband loves the twisted maple bars and the fact that the quality is consistently excellent.I'm a fan of the chocolate cake donuts.We always purchase a dozen for my horseshoer on the days he trims the horses hooves. He lives in Elk Grove and says he can't find any donuts as delicious as Jimmy's! Get there early! They go fast!

My usual donut shoppe was closed for the holidays so I decided to venture out and try some highly rated places on Yelp. I went to Jimmy's donuts on a cold Sunday morning to give them a shot. Located in Rio Linda, Jimmy's Donuts looks like a place from yesteryear. It has an old looking facade and not a whole lot of modern touches anywhere. I'm not sure how long Jimmy's has been in operation, but from the looks of it, it's been a long time.Jimmy's has all the classic donuts that you could be looking for. There are the rounds, the bars, the old fashioned, buttermilk, etc. You can also get larger treats like bear claws and fritters. I went ahead and got a little more than a dozen so that I could get a good taste of how these donuts were. In all, I'd say the donuts were extremely solid. I was a little wary of the maple donuts at first because the maple they put on the top looked a little paler than I'm used to seeing, but it was still good. In fact, the chocolate and maple toppings had a nice light touch to them. You can't go wrong with these donuts as they are classic and are made just the way they should be.One surprise from Jimmy's had to be the custard filling that they used. They actually had some bars filled with custard, which I thought was unique. I gave one a try and genuinely thought it was a great idea that other places should do as well. I love custard so the more the better. There were also bear claws filled with apple. Again, I hadn't seen this sort of thing done at most places so I'd have to give Jimmy's credit for having a few unique offerings.If you're thirsty, there are a number of drink options that you can select from out of the cold cases to the right of the store. Jimmy's is a simple operation without much frill. That's totally ok as they aren't trying to be more than what they are - a solid donut shop.

Great donuts, great service patronize your local vendors if you enjoy your carbohydrates fix!

Such a local jewel - love the ham and cheese croissants they are the best ! Thank you for supplying our community with delicious donuts for so many years .

Small mom and pop donut shop. Pick up only. There's no place to sit. Fresh donuts made daily. Try their croissant sandwiches, I have no idea what they put in there but they are fantastic!!!

I don't know how they do it, but their freshly made scrambled eggs are always fluffy despite being cooked in the microwave. Their breakfast croissants are amazing! I can't leave this store without getting one (or more.) And I love their all buttermilk bars, cream filled maple bars and donut holes. Everyone is so super nice, they deserve more business and support. FYI...cash only.

Students and staff loved them when I brought them to school. Great donuts and customer service!

This place opens early and has a great selection of donuts. You can also grab a bevy and be in your way. Prices are reasonable.

6:30am Donuts are cold, don't leave out your donut holes in the counter, because it's convenient for you. you need to keep that under a warmer. They are good donuts very fluffy, just kind of cold.

These donuts are SO good!! The kiddos loved the donut holes and the owners are so sweet and patient *it took awhile for my son to decide what big donut he wanted*! Will definitely be going back
