Gavin's Donuts

Loved this place at one point but they are scammers. This donut shop was a part of our everyday routine. I'd get juice while one of my sons would get donuts and the other got a ham and cheese croissant. After a while I noticed their prices would jump daily especially after tipping consistently. Their juices are advertised as 6.50. It doesn't say 6.50+ or more for substitutions per drink. There's A1-4 but they have different options and combinations on their wall. They offered me an alternative for A1 because I have a carrot sensitivity. Initially it was regular priced but after some time depending on who I'd order it with the price would fluctuate .50-$1.I ordered 3 drinks today. Went in with $27 with the intention to tip. That lady charged me 25.50. A whole 2 dollars more per drink than advertised & .50 less than ordering 4 drinks. She did not inform me of a price difference or anything just took the initiative to choose what I'd spend. NEVER WILL THEY SEE ANOTHER DOLLAR FROM ME & at this point I declare and decree their business see no more money PERIOD.After reflecting this last 90 mins I realized they asked lots of personal questions and because I live in the neighborhood I candidly shared but now I see it was about counting my pockets trying to figure out how I could afford to spend money there regularly. Probably assumed illegal activity because how could you ever think it would be okay to charge me more because I'm a young woman FULL of MELANIN. There were a few times I'd be waiting on my juice to be made & others would come in yet I paid more for the same thing but because I intended to spend a specific amount I didn't care because in my mind that's on them no sweat off my back. But today? I realized it for what it was. I legit tipped EVERY TIME. You clearly hate your business.Luckily I've grown otherwise I'd file a discrimination complaint & suit. UNLESS you can show me people without melanin with trumped up charges every visit but either way their behavior is illegal. I saw another review as I came to make mine saying how expensive their donuts are now. I purposely used cards because I wanted to understand what I was being charged for.I hope their poor behavior is worth what comes with it. I fully intended to spend that whole $27 regardless but her forcing extra funds lost them business and will in FACT continue to do so. I should've stopped going when they juiced spoiled fruit that had me sick for 2 weeks last year. When I told the one with the braces she brushed it off "Oh sometimes the fruit not good" well say that instead of selling it to people.

This is a hidden gem for lunch and fresh pressed juices. Friendly service, great prices and plenty of parking. I haven't had a sandwich yet that wasn't exemplary. Soft bread, crisp veggies, quality meat and cheese. Roast beef and Swiss is my favorite. I stop by often for a juice after dropping kiddo at Marina HS. They have pre-set combinations, but you can always choose your own. I love the cucumber, celery, green apple, pineapple, ginger combo. Better prices than anywhere i have found nearby.

This used to be my favorite local donut shop, but my recent visits have been very disappointing.The quality of the donuts has dropped significantly--they no longer seem fresh and are hard and dry. It's frustrating because this place used to be so reliable.On top of that, I was charged $8 for four donuts, which seems excessive given the current quality.What a waste.

Food was good I had a ham and cheese croissant Donuts were delicious they ladies are all ways so nice

Well made donuts with great designs. They slays have freshly made donuts and they are very friendly. The location is clean and easy to find from the road.

There are one million donut places in Huntington Beach. This is not a true statement. There are a lot of donut places in Huntington Beach. Each one has a different personality, menu and pricing.This spot has great fresh donuts, the usual reheatable ham and cheese croissants and freshly made breakfast croissant sandwiches made to order. They also have bagels - the bagel guy was delivering a couple of fresh bags while I was there.Very friendly staff - mom and teenage daughter when I went Monday. Ordered the #5 for myself - 3 meat breakfast croissant with eggs, cheese, add avocado because I'm a goddam pig. $7.99For my husband, a dainty sausage, egg and cheese croissant $6.49.Honestly we're like Jack Sprat and the wife.My husband is a buttermilk bar afficianado and this place passed with flying colors. He loved the flavor and texture. $1.50 each.I love any filled donut - raspberry filled, lemon filled, custard filled... and this place did not disappoint. $1.75 each.The only bad thing while I was there, a richy rich mom with 3 bratty out-of-control children. Doors left open on their SUV outside meant they took up 3 parking spaces. The "cute" 3 year old girl helping herself to drinks out of the cooler while the owner's daughter told her "those cost money." All 3 "angels" were SO LOUD. I locked eyes with another patron and we shared a WTF look.But this had nothing to do with the delicious food, service and pricing. I'll definitely be returning.

Service and donuts and sandwiches are awesome.. The juices are pretty good too.. definitely a must try

Donuts are fluffy and delicious! Not overly sweet or oily.Lots of variety. Quick service.Easy parking. Friendly.

Super friendly woman behind the counter! Service is quick so I did feel a little pressure to choose fast but the croissants looked very pale & instead I settled on a coconut donut. This was my first visit here and I was disappointed that my donut tasted a little odd. Not sure what it could've been, maybe old frying oil? The dough was soft, fluffy and fresh but the lingering taste was unpleasant.
