BEST APPLE FRITTER IN ALL OF SACRAMENTO!! It needs to be shouted from the rooftops. I have tried a lot of local donut spots like Marie's (not enough apple) and New Roma Bakery (I like their savory breads and coffee cakes better than their donuts). This is truly the standout winner. See photos for big chunks of apples. Yes! This is the place! 1st visit: Excellent apple fritter--crunchy outer folds, soft inside and a solid layer of cooked apple throughout. Nice butter bar--like a maple bar but with an old fa
I had an awesome apple fritter here. By far the best apple fritter I have ever had. Apple, cinnamon and fried just right. I'm from the E Coast so I might never make it back but it will be the apple fritter I compare all others against.
Super-clean inside with a charming, old-school doughnut shop vibe. Staff was super-friendly even as I struggled through some indecisiveness picking my dozen. The variety of doughnuts I ended up with were all fresh and dunk-worthy and they even had fresh Bavarian cream. This shop is worth the trip.
Been going here for a while now and feel like I can write an honest review. The customer service is very good and friendly. Atmosphere is just ok but a bit bland. Their menu board needs some serious updating. Some parts of it are almost unintelligible. The store front is often dirty and is a gathering point for the homeless. Now, the food. While the varieties that I have tried are obviously baked that same day, many of them seem to be dried out and not squishy and the glaze\icing flakes off because they are
Great quality donuts and croissants (especially ham and cheese). Good prices. Always leave there happy. Wholly recommend.
I went pretty late in the day so there wasn?t much to choose from. Been wanting to eat a chocolate bar so luckily there were some left. Good service, but the most important part was that the donuts taste good too. ????
Great donuts, excellent service. The apple fritter was off the charts, crispy on the outside, but soft on the inside. ...yummy. thanks
Its delicious and friendly staff and great hours -they're open super early! (or super late depending on if you've been to sleep or not ??)
Best donuts in town. Show up early before the best stuff gets bought out.
Cool donut joint. Delicious and the staff was helpful for a first timer.
Its april 8th they sold me choclate milk dated march 18th stomach was a nightmare ??????????
Incredibly fresh donut. Super light and delicious. Shop seems like a real gem.
I love the service and donuts here. If you are looking for the trendy style of donuts then this isn?t your place. This is your traditional mom and pop donuts shop. The flavors were on point and prices were more than affordable. It?s unfortunate that the homelessness encapsulates the area around the facility and yes I would too with the amazing smells coming from the 16th Street Donut shop. Everyone loves donuts so I hook em up with a few on my way out.
Nothing beats local mom and pop places that make wonderful good ol? donuts! I?m a raised-donut type of person, the sugared and glazed ones are pillowy and perf.
They have great donuts, but the business hours don't match what it says on Yelp. It states that they're open until 4:00 on Sundays. And here it is 3:05 pm and they are completely closed for the day. I understand with covid they may not be able to stay open as late as they used to but it would be nice if they stated that somewhere.
Sacramento?s best kept donut shop secret, 16th Street Donuts delivers exceptional donuts at a very reasonable price. I am most always pass by later in the day, but on a recent visit, I found the quality and flavor is amazing. The chocolate and maple bars are hearty; made with precision, the raised donuts are filling yet still fluffy. The cake and old fashioned are made perfectly. Hoping to sample the Apple fritters next time I stop by. I?ve heard many good things about this place and I was not disappointed
The apple fritter was very good. The service was great and the atmosphere was okay with all the homeless people. I bought donuts for everyone. Great price.
Hands down the BEST donuts in Sacramento! They're big, fluffy, unique and classic all in one. Their prices are pretty low with 2 dozen assorted donuts (including jelly filled, bars and fritters), costing me less than $30! Everywhere else is greasy but not 16th! Never greasy! They are a huge hit at my work! Friendly, mellow staff as well. The best!
Great donuts and staff is very nice!
Authentic Cambodian made donuts. Excellent taste like its right out of San Francisco or Los Angeles
Some delicious stuff from the local donut shop run by great people.
The donuts here are made fresh onsite in the early morning hours before they open. I recommend arriving as early as possible to get a donut that captures that has that unique taste of a recently made pastry. I've also grabbed donuts in the afternoon near their closing time and they have tasted great. Having a donut place that is locally run by friendly owners makes it a neighborhood gem.
This donut shop is small and sells out quickly. The only reason I dropped it a star is because they often are our of a particular item you might want due to high early morning sales. The donuts are delicious and the owner is a very kind man who even helps out the homeless at times when he can if if the days sales are slow. This business is definitely worth supporting!
There aren't enough stars available to give this place. The owner is probably one of the friendliest proprietors in town. He always greets you with a smile and a good morning. The donuts are delicious and varietal. He recognizes that he doesn't need a gimmick to sell donuts. He does it the "old fashioned" way, quality and service.
Great donuts at a great price!
What a wonderful little shop. We went in while doing laundry next door, and the woman was so kind. The coffee and tea were great, and the donuts were DELICIOUS. I can't believe the prices- so good. I wish we lived nearby so we could stop in regularly!
Best donuts in sac. You can tell the difference when you eat something created with care and passion. Can rely on this shop for a cheap snack and great coffee in the early morning.
I don't love donuts, but I love this place. They have invented the formula from the heavens with donuts that resemble a cakes intererior. Smooth, silky, but fried on the outside. I travel from Natomas to downtown for the experience.
Some of the best donuts I have had since moving to CA! Ever since we moved here from the mid-west, my husband and I have been searching for something like home but the shops out her just don't compare, until now. We have never had a pastry that we did not like. Each dough that they make is masterfully made and the old-fashioned donuts have to have some sour cream in them; simply delicious! My husband loves apple fritters and he says that this is the best one he has ever had. We make a stop once a month to
quick service, delicious assortment of donuts, great price! bought a dozen to bring to the office for a coworker's birthday - can't count how many praises for the quality of the donuts I heard (I also sampled bits of several and can personally attest to the deliciousness)!
It's not a place you'd go in and sit to eat and chat. But the donuts are good and the owner is so awesome he deserves a 5 ? review!
I love these doughnuts especially when they are fresh. I had a marked down day old apple fritter for .50 cents. Threw in the mic for 30 seconds and saw rhe grease on the paper towel. I didn't hesitate even a moment and inhaled the entire fritter. I felt sick, but i know that it is a sign that those are the best apple fritters in the world!!
BEST DONUTS in town by far, inexpensive and the place is clean. Homeless folks in or around this area, last time I checked THEY ARE HUMAN BEINGS, they are, we all are God's creatures. How hard would it be to buy 2 donuts, 1 for you and 1 for someone hungry, they would appreciate it, and donuts go very well with warm cans of beer stolen from 711.
The donuts are fine but not special by any means. They run out relatively quickly and don?t seem to make any fresh ones throughout the morning. The only reason I go back is because there aren?t many donut shops in midtown.
Stumbled upon this donut shop a few years ago. I love this place. Donuts are perfect! Everything I've had has been delicious. I come from Freeport where Marie's Donuts reigns supreme but I have found my new donut spot ????
Great fast friendly service at a fair price. Donuts tasted amazing!
This shop has been on my itinerary for years; in fact, it's been around since the '80s and probably longer - maybe different owners. Anyhow, this is a great place to get your filled, glazed and things-on-top donuts. Prices are very reasonable, and the guys who run this place are very neighborly. There's plenty of parking within this tiny strip mall at the northeast corner of 16th & F Street, and if you're on a bike and looking for a place to hitch it, you're on your own. We're working on that.
The donuts are Good , I always get the old school apple fritters, and wife gets the maple bar with double custard. Coffee with half hot chocolate. Very enjoyable
Great little donut shop. The yeast donuts are awesome as are the croissant and pastries. The staff is friendly, I wanted a raspberry jelly donut and they ran out of them so they made me one ??????.
The friendly staff is always very patient whenever we bring our kids in. They always remember us and ask about the absent ones when we don't all arrive. The donuts are good too. Be sure to get there before the cheerleaders buy all the donuts.
Best donuts in town. I go out of my way to get these. Price is fair market and very affordable.
Simple, no-frills donuts. This isn't one of those hipster donut shops that puts salmon or froot loops on their donuts and charges 3 bucks a pop. Come here to get donuts that taste exactly like a donut should - incredibly soft and flaky fried dough with a simple sweet glaze - for only 95 cents. These donuts are what God created the Earth for, the epitome of human civilization. It may not look like much on the outside, but when you enter prepare to be greeted by a friendly face and to feel rapture when you pu
I have been going here 8yrs. I used to go to Roma's, Darrel's coffee, tastes better, better priced. The doughnuts are excellent. Love the ham n cheese croissants. Friendly service from all employees.
This is a wonderful place. Especially since the Cappuccino is to die for. The Pastries and doughnuts are extremely sweet and good. They are open at 4:00 a.m and service with a big smile. The staff are all 5 star personalities and I will never stop going to The 16th Street Doughnuts Shop!!!!!
Great tasting donuts and prices. Best in town. However, they have a lot of Homeless hanging around.
Great donuts and super friendly service! I actually live closer to another bakery in the area but walk over to 16th Street for the much better product. I haven't had anything I didn't love but imma give a shout out on the ham & swiss croissant (warmed). mmmmmmm!
When you need donuts come here !!!
Don't look at the building the facade or the decoration just get yourself a donut and be happy.
Why get 1 donut at Starbucks when you can get 2 here for the same price?
Always a great stop on the way to work at 6am. Donuts are fresh, coffee is hot.
I gave this donut shop 5 stars because the donuts were fresh and good. The owner was very accommodating when I ordered a soda , he included a cup of ice and a straw for the price of the soda($1.00).
The best service hands down. They greet you with a hello and send you on your way without robbing you. They are very reasonabke with there prices and the end product will always be fresh and delicious.
Great selection of donuts and coffee! Even though they were out of iced mocha, the gentleman working was kind enough to make a yummy iced coffee for me. Excellent service, very friendly!
Croissants are yummy.
Some of the best donuts in Sacramento. Not only are they super fresh, but the owner is very friendly. I would recommend to anyone looking for good donuts for the office.
Prices r great and donuts r awesome!!! Staff is pleasant also!!
I like that this place is still around. Go there all the time. Like all donut shops. Nice, small, and stock with food. Location feels like most donut shops. You feel weird when it's dark, and eh when it's day.
The donuts here are so delightful made just the way a donut should be. Little crisp on the outside very fluffy and perfectly made Great customer service also definitely left a tip.
I?ve gone to every donut in Sacramento, and 16th donuts is hands down the best. Dough is very fluffy yet chewy. The chocolate glaze tastes amazing.
Love this Donut shop. I've been coming here for years. The donuts are always fresh and tasty. An they even make good coffee????
Myself personally I love their cinnamon rolls and especially their donut holes, so all I can say is go there and get your Donuts and keep up the good work I hope you guys stay open during these hard times
Best donuts in sac. Classic style. good conversation. Owner operated. Real people. Get there early before the donuts you want are all taken.
The owner and staff are amazing, they help the homeless when they can, I love great customer service and they definitely keep the bar high! It will always be my favorite donut shop.
These donuts are stellar! Just be patient and nice, the donuts are very tasty and the employees are welcoming
If you are in the area, get your doughnuts here, and yeah, I love New Roma, but you can't make one rich and the other poor. You might get the "Can you help me out with a dollar" but good parking and good doughnuts.
Very nice staff and tasty donut
My all time favorite. Go bright and early to get the best tasting donut ever. They are bade fresh all morning but early when they first open is the best
I adore when I have the opportunity to come pick up donuts here; this place is the best price and delicious quality!
The two clerks were very kind for how late in the day it was, very invested in the customers that stop by. Great donuts for a cheap price, great for a quick snack at work.
Stopped in for donuts and the service and donuts were exceptional. The gentleman looked like he owned the establishment and was very kind to us Thank you again!
Guilty pleasure after a workout ?? Great donuts ??
OMG, what more could I possibly ask for? Perfect donuts, plus they throw in some donut holes for free! They also have croissants (even ham & cheese stuffed) which I'll try on my next visit. Mmmmm
Can't complain. The donuts are very most and crispy. Highly recommend, but be prepared to wait a while if you go when it's crowded
I got there early afternoon and the owner was very cordial, The product was pretty inexpensive as well as looking tasty. I recommend the experience.
The Donuts were tasty but I cannot recommend the coffee. It seemed very weak and watery.
Great donuts and coffee located right on 16th street open early which is a huge place. Get a good donut and strong cup of coffee for cheap on those early mornings to work!
Running that's what a great place nothing but excellent service I can't say enough about it how excellent they are there but they sure do take care of you and they appreciate the customers as well thank you for being there your friend Chris
The people that own and run this place are the absolute nicest guys!! Always!! And the donuts are awesome!
Apparently this place has gone to new owners recently. You can't count on there business hours. The new owner told me that if he's not busy for awhile he closed the shop.
The donuts are really good here and the coffee was the same. Customer service was excellent.
Randomly stopped by to get some donuts and they were absolutely amazing!!! So delicious and fresh
Loved this little hole in the wall donut shop. ACTUALLY IS THE BEST PRICED DONUTS IN SACRAMENTO!!!
I have always gotten great service, and the coffee and Donuts are excellent. I recommend stopping in for a donut for sure??
Very nice man behind the counter get you whatever kind of donuts you want great selection of coffees
Yummy donuts. Staff is really helpful. Nice place to grab a donut and have a chat.
They're very friendly, took my daughter with me and the person working register hooked her up with some donut holes it really made her day!
Amazing donuts and selection. The staff and the owner were both incredibly nice.
I Place a Pick Up Order For 3:30 In The Afternoon This Passed Friday. and When I Went ta Go Pick Up My Donuts They Were Closed. and It Said That They Close at 4:00 pm. I Went There For Nothing.??
