Customer Reviews

Ordered the 20 Staxx and 1/2 dozen. They let me pick out which donuts I wanted as opposed to just throwing in whatever they wanted. Got s'mores, Thai, Carmel, Berry, and a couple others. Overall we were happy with the order just wish the Staxx (senorita bread) was warm at 9 a.m. on a Monday. The picture is the donuts cut up so I got to try them all ??

The one place I?ll always make time for when in Sacramento. Their Spanish Rolls are absolutely delicious, my weakness. ??

My son loves to come here with me on Sunday. We seem to go here or traditional breakfast. The staff is always friendly, the se?orita bread or Staxx ifs the best ever. I?ve had the empanadas as well and would recommend. My son likes the bread and the shorty cake.

I recently visited Bad Bakers in Roseville, CA, to update my photography portfolio, and I was thoroughly impressed with the experience. The staff went above and beyond to help me choose the best products for my shoot, ensuring I received the most perfectly shaped and visually appealing donuts. Their dedication to providing top-notch service made a significant difference in my work. The donuts themselves were not only beautiful but also incredibly delicious. I highly recommend Bad Bakers for anyone looking f

May have just been a bad batch, but we tried some donuts and they were so horrible we has to exchange them for two decent alternatives. The first ones were dry and tasted so horrible we didn't want to eat them. They woman was nice and let us swap them. But even the new ones were kind of stale like they'd sat for a good while. Not very good. Fix it please guys.

I came for the doughnuts but left IN LOVE with the staxx. The fresh staxx were served warm with a buttery sugar coating that is to DIE FOR. I almost didn't try them because they didn't seem interesting to me but oh my god am I glad I tried them! I ate five out of the twenty!! I chose the six doughnut and 20 staxx combo which was $24. The six doughnuts were really good, especially the yeast ones. They were soft and pillowy and fresh. I didn't love all the crazy toppings but the strawberry and plain yeast on

First time visiting. Great service. Answered all my questions and made suggestions. They offer vegan and gluten-free options. Ube flavors and gluten-free are only offered on Fridays and Saturdays. Great to know there are alternative options. I went with fullon sugary donuts ?? ?? Will visit again.

When reading these reviews and seeing the line out the door when I arrived I had high hopes that I found a new amazing place to go for delicious doughnuts and bread. I have say it was only OK ? I really liked the chocolate they use but wasn?t impressed with any thing else. The cake doughnuts weren?t worth the price and the se?orita bread was bland and had a weird taste next time I?ll just stick to getting them at starbread ?? for the best bread ?? ?? ?? ?? ????????????????

I selected the old fashion with sprinkles, maple and glazed. The maple is amazing! We love the fresh cake flavor, not greasy taste of the donut. Perfect amount and flavor icing. We'll be back for sure :) So good we forgot to take before pics...oops

I have never injected my own donut with extra cream! It was a thrilling and delicious experience.

Every location on point. I'm always so happy to come here, and get exceptional service.

Came to this location and was running a little late right before close. It was 2 minutes after close but LJ helped out and I still got my order. His customer service is amazing and I'm happy people like him work here. Will come back just to see LJ again. He is a great employee and will put a smile on your face!

With a name like BAD Bakers, I knew we had to try this place, but I had no idea what to expect. Let?s just say I was so happy we went!! I loooove the show Breaking Bad and finding out this shop is inspired from that made it so much better, so if you?re a Breaking Bad fan you gotta go here. They have donuts themed after the show and a really fun feature is some donuts come with little syringes full of icing/filling that you put into the donut yourself. So fun!! Also, I?ve never had spanish bread before but I

My first busy and hands down, SUPER BOMB! Especially the Cronuts, for me is a must. I wanted to surprise my lady with some Star Bread which she loves by the way. Everything we ordered was absolutely amazing. Great job to the entire staff! Can't wait to be back for more SWEET & SAVORY goodness. Tell' em I sent ya.

Whenever I?m in the area I always try to stop by for a donut or some se?orita bread. I?ve taken a few friend by the store and now they love this place as much as I do. The donuts are fresh, fun, they have creative twists and everything is delicious.

Definitely one of the most unique sweet experiences I've ever had.. On the surface they look like a simpledonut shop, but the are far from being a simple donut shop. They also had Mexican baked goods.. Hello panaderia.. Tried their conchas.. sweet bread, as well as a Snickers raised donut.. Simple perfection. My donut even came with a syringe to inject it with one of three filings..I chose barvarian creme.. Yum..

I've been here multiple times and love the different donuts and treats they always have out. Unfortunately the last time I went the employee seemed very uninterested in helping me and one of my donuts came with the cr?me shot and she didn't give it to me. as I was walking out I realized and went back to get it and she seemed annoyed that I asked for it.

I love their staxx (senorita bread). They have incredible donuts, but I just get a box of staxx most of the time. Friendly and pretty fast service.

It's a great concept similar to Psycho Donuts in the San Jose/Campbell area. It's cute and a novel idea, but I wasn't wild about the donuts... The shot though!!! Clever and fun. Update . The Senorita bread and the jalapeno/cheese rolls... Fabulous ?? I'm changing my rating!

A box of Staxx ( Senorita Breads) will disappear in a matter of minutes. These little doughnut breads are addicting. The new cashier Sheree is the best, really helpful and friendly. Check them out, get some Stacks, I promise you'll be back for another box again.

It was a bit too sweet for me I bought an entire box for my family and yes the Spanish bread is the favorite. When I read the reviews I didn?t know what Spanish bread was( it?s just sweet bread with like melted sugar inside) but it was the best thing there. Also the fillings were custard like and I don?t like custard. Love the vibe tho and customer service was good:) it?s like an 8/10 but my family thought it was too sweet so I have a lot of left overs to deal with. I suggest by 3 at max because it may be t

I?m pretty close friends with the owners dad and he recommended this place. I avoided going here because I?m from Oakland and to drive 2 hours for some doughnuts? Crazy right? I gotta say totally worth the drive for some of their Spanish bread! The customer service was a 10. The doughnuts were a 10. Just overall a very good experience. Will definitely be back here for more

Tasty mix of eclectic donut creations. The injection cremes were yummy. Get there early for the fresh product. Price was a bit $$$ for donuts but the experience is one to have.

The plan was to go get some dinner from Tandori Nights which is a few doors down from Bad bakers. My friend has been to Bad Bakers before, she has been there numerous times and said I should try it so we did. My friend raved about the bread rolls specifically, they have a sweet glaze on them. I was not expecting them to be that good but I was pleasantly surprised. They also make donuts with a shot, I did not get a chance to try them but I will for sure the next time I am in Roseville. I took the tolls home

I was so excited to try this place. Walking in and seeing the cases filled with donuts that were decorated so beautifully I thought I'd discovered my newest addiction. They even have "vials" of flavors to inject your favorite filling. They said they had caramel, berry, and vanilla. I tried each one. When I got to the car, I popped open the box and was going to have a bite right in the car, like a true addict would do. I was sooo disappointed that the donut was stale and the "caramel" was tasteless. I t

I recently ordered donuts for a large event, and I couldn?t be happier with the experience! Sheree and her team were exceptional. They had everything ready on time, and the donuts were absolutely delicious. Each flavor was a hit, and everyone at the event raved about them. I highly recommend their services for any occasion?fantastic job all around!

This place probably has more appeal to a younger crowd who don't blink at paying more for trendy, really sugary treats. I was hoping for a simple glazed cronut with the cream injector, but everything was loaded with tons of confections on top. We decided to split a Bananarama, and it was messy but tasty (wish the injector had been full).

Great selection of amazing donuts! A tad pricey for donuts but they are definitely more unique than your average donut shop

Excellent the Staxx came out fresh and hot like always and the bitso was super delicious with all their flavors of strawberry chocolate and cream cheese.

Great doughnuts and awesome Spanish bread! Highly recommend this place. They always seem to have a line but it's worth the wait. Get a dozen. You won't regret it. Everything here is super good.

The service here is always Excellent?? it's been awhile since I have been going to Bad Bakers, since my Mom's death in 2018 to be exact. This is how I discovered the place being that it was close by Starbucks and Sutter Medical Hospital where my Mom was confined before Hospice Care. I brought them to the Nurses and Doctors to show them my appreciation for their caring and supportive role in our decision-making.

I tried?. But team was stumped when i said i wanted to buy 2 senorita bread?.i see why the place was dead. So rather than take my money and a good review?.you dont get my phone number, money or a good review?..congrats

Truly a great bakery. Their Spanish staxx are the best and everything else after that is amazing as well.

I always have a great experience @ Bad Baker. Service is always top notch! My customers always look forward to seeing me because they know I bring the goodies??

Sadly this is not how you treat fresh buns out of the oven. Unfortunately discovered this attitude only at home. All squished into ugly kind of leftovers, not yummy food.

Staxx they call it but it's Senorita bread all the same to me. Their version is soft and sweet. I got the ~$5 box and it's perfect with Latte (Starbucks is just next door.)

This place smells amazing and the food is delicious!

Great selection, tried a bit of everything! Sooooo good! Senorita bread is killer! Highly recommend!

Good selection, but donuts aren?t the freshest. Makes you wonder if donut mix is made off-site. No sense of urgency from the staff on multiple visits. Cool aesthetic and the syringes of frosting are a unique idea.

These are advertised in such a luxurious way that I really had my hopes up! However, my husband & I bought 5 different donuts to try & not a single one was worth the money. They were absolutely stale, dry, flavorless & had an aftertaste of old oil. They are completely lacking in quality overall. These should be $1 per donut at most. We are so disappointed & would certainly not recommend.

We ordered a variety of donuts and savory items. Everything was delicious!

The best Spanish rolls that I have ever eaten!!! I love them and my whole family too))

Definitely the Baddest donut/bakery around. I'd give this place 10 stars if I could. If you're a donut connoisseur like myself, you'd very much appreciate this place.

This place is a must try, Very good and delicious. Go in and taste for yourself.

Never disappoints! It's super hard to find really good Star Bread in this part of Sac and their as close to what I used to get in the bay as possible. Always hot and fresh. You can even call ahead for big orders. Tried the Burger lumpia, beef and nacho cheese, not authentic, lol, but sooooo good. Can't go wrong frying beef and nacho cheese. Also, great donuts, as always!

Omg bad bakers, What?s Good!! I love Vincent! When I say him and his team did they thang and brought my vision to real life! The cake donuts and raised donuts was so bombbb! Y?all gotta customer for life! So I had talked to Vincent about making me some special customized donuts for my babygirl birthday with the ?Doc Mcstuffins? theme. I didn?t even have to say to much he just captured my vision and made it his! I really appreciate it! And to the rest of the staff, all of y?all had great customer service. T

The pictures of these donuts is what drew us in. Unfortunately the taste did not live up to the picture. All 4 of us were grossed out by the taste. These so called donuts do not taste like donuts. They taste like dry bread with some frosting. They told me the donut I got was supposed to be lemon cake covered in chocolate?there wasn?t a bit of lemon flavor. We were so disappointed we threw our donuts away and went to a different donut place.

My client recommend meeting at Bad Bakers Roseville to sign their documents. Outside dining has room for 4 adults, child, baby in a stroller, and easily sign their documents. Coffee drinks and pastries tasted great. This bakery will see me again.

I went here on a whim and it was a great choice! So many options and the staff was so nice and walked me through my options and explained it all! Just look at this ?? my pregnant self is very happy.

Been going here for years! I often would stop to get either the spanish rolls or the donuts for events (infusing the donuts with the BAD Baker syringes is a such crowd-favourite). My family are all suckers for the spanish rolls, especially when they are fresh and warm. My favourite donut is the vegan blueberry.

They were able to bake a same-day order for me and it was equal parts beautiful and delicious! I can't recommend them enough.

Such a great spot! Great customer service and they helped us with a gender reveal which was really special! ?? love the donuts here.

best Spanish rolls in town. definitely should give a try. donuts are great too

Best donuts I've had in forever! Can't wait to return!

I have had better service at this location before so while I want to give 2 stars for this last visit I have given 3. The cashier was dismissive, noncommunicative, and walked to the back to put more staxx in the oven while her cash drawer was wide open. Maybe she was having a bad day but if that had been my first experience it would also have been my last. The seniorita bread (staxx) are worth the drive. They're addicting for sure. The gimmick of the plungers with filling that you pick the flavor and add to

Donuts were great! Loved the concept of choosing your own filling and being able to fill the donut yourself. Combinations galore! Can't wait to go back and try different things!

Kind, and friendly staff who are willing to help! I have been going here since opening and it?s definitely catered to my sweet needs throughout the years. Lots of smiles and happy people. Sadly not so much a secret now it?s definitely worth a visit for any occasion.

Love their Seniorita bread/Spanish rolls!! However haven't been here in a while. Literally in front of Bad Bakers right now cause as far as I knew they opened at 6am and wanted to get some to take to work, but just wanted my trip over here because they don't open til 7

Came here for the first time and found DELICIOUS donuts and treats and a really cool looking place! We will be back!

The donuts look amazing! Such incredible options! But when I ate one, it tasted stale and dry. Definitely was not made that day, IMHO. I was hoping it would be better. Didn't turn out to be.

A gem in Roseville! Check out bad bakers if you want some of the best pastries you?ve ever had! Great food, friendly staff couldn?t ask for more.

Came during normal business. Hours and was really greeted by the worker and told he was on break and couldn't help and he put a sign on the door that was a tiny piece of paper which I didn't see. I apologized and he rudely ushered me out. Then locked the door and said come back at 530 or 6 very confusing experience as a loyal customer. I drove from Lincoln to come here and I didn't expect to be treated in this manner..

Good food. Too many bad experiences with not being able to order closer to end of their day. Do yourself a favor and only come in the morning. No point in coming towards the end of the day (like if they close at 7, come at like 5:30 the latest.). Some of my experiences ?we?re saving these, we can only give you ten stack. , they were closed on a holiday more than an hour before their closing time posted on their door (holiday schedule).

Buttery, sweet and light Se?orita Bread. You have the option to order a few of these fluffy rolls or more if you want to share with your friends.

Love love love this place! I have always loved their donuts but had never tried anything else until this super sweet worker, I think her name was Christina (she has red hair) recommended their senorita rolls and empanadas and holy cow!! She made them fresh and boy was I impressed!! I ate them so fast I forgot to take pictures but definitely will next time! A+ recommendation and A+ taste and quality! I will be back and look forward to more recommendations!! Thank you Christina!!

This was beyond fun and delicious. Definitely going back!!!

Our first visit was last month & it did NOT go well to say the least. However, the Se?orita bread called me back - and this time around we were greeted by the friendliest women, who knew everything about what was on the shelves. Our mouthes were seriously on the floor on just how different our experience was this time around... Last time we were told so many things that were not true about fillers for donuts and the gal even forgot our bread. The lady this time kindly asked if we could tell the manager of o

Bad bakers is the best!! Staxx, seniorita bread, and the most imaginative/creative donuts in town!

I felt I was in a communist restaurant. They didn't want to serve me and what they did serve didn't look anything like the picture. When I said the bread is not toasted the clerk said. Yes it is toasted. When I lifted the top untoasted bread there was slivers of avocado. Not slices of an avocado. I don't know why they treated me so badly. I felt like a person in Hitlers Germany. I would like them to understand what they did and never do it to anyone else ever. Each person should be treated with dignity and

Mariah is amazing cook. Great customer service skills. This place took a large order last min and definitely came thru!!!! Highly recommend

I love Bad Bakers and am totally addicted. It really is the BEST bakery in the Sacramento area, hands down, for donuts and lunch/dinner snacks. Their donuts are unique creations that are always fresh and super delish. Their kronuts (croissant donut) are absolutely amazing, best donut I've ever tried. The kronut holes with Nutella are my favorites. I also like that they serve mochi donuts, in addition to cake, crueller and injectible donuts. The Roseville Bad Bakers location near Sutter hospital is hands do

Love, but rarely indulge due to high sugar content. Bought my husband a black tshirt here, he loves it and the color holds well.

I purchased 2 egg rolls and 4 Pigs in a blanket. The egg rolls were dry, like they had been reheated from the night before. The Pigs in a blanket were good. I didn't try the Donuts, but they looked fancy. Not your typical donut shop. Pricey.

What an amazing place. These donuts ?? can make any event/celebration better ?

Delicious se?orita bread and donuts. Not overly sweet. Thank you for the great deal on tgtg!

3.7/5 stars. The old fashion donuts are great, and once a year they have an apple donut that is absolutely incredible. Other donuts are just alright. They have a few unique donuts, but when I ask what the specific differences in batters or ingredients are, they typically do not know.

Delicious sweets. Love the Staxx. I usually get the 60 count. They are served very hot and obviously fresh.

This donut shop is to die for. Their donuts are ALWAYS above standard and the customer service is wonderful. We just went a few minutes before closing (which many aren?t too happy about) to pick up something sweet. Mariah was so kind and helpful. She hooked us up with the best treats. Thank you Mariah! We will be returning soon.

Great donuts but it's the senorita bread that does it for me

I love their senorita bread. I bring it as a treat for my office staff

It's a donut shop with a gimmick. 99.9% of items were drenched in glaze (as if sugar is the only taste worth sharing). I got a small 3" unglazed cake donut ($2.75). The chocolate flavor was pedestrian, but the texture and crumb were fine. I wouldn't exactly call this place a patisserie, and "bakery" is a even a stretch. It's a donut shop laced with glaze and flavored "creme." But hey - some people like that. Not judging - but still looking.

Not bad, very very sweet donuts. Bizarrely, nothing in the display cabinet had signs to explain the flavours????? So you literally have to ask the staff to tell you every single flavour. Why? The dumbest thing I?ve ever seen.

Love this place!!!! Spanish/senorita bread is on point and I always get 50 rolls if I'm going to someone house! I highly recommend this place. All the donuts are themed so the kiddos have fun picking one out for themself. Plus if you stop by right before they close, then everything is half off. Enjoy!

I went to the Roseville location today for a sweet treat and loved the donuts! My server, Alyssa, was great and made my experience even better! She was friendly, attentive, and prompt with my requests. I will definitely return to the Roseville location and hope I get Alyssa as my server again!

Always good eats & service! The rewards are great too. Whether you walk in or do an online order, always good.

The staff was very helpful (since I was new to the bakery). And the food was great!!

They are VERY RUDE!! They overcooked their rolls?super dry and hard. I called to let them know and the girl who answered said I didn?t know what I was talking about and said we don?t make mistakes lol ?? Will never again go back!

Great stop to hit before heading out on the Miners Ravine Trail. Donuts & savory treats were very nice quality and held up just fine to enjoy a day later. The empanadas deserve a special mention, very tasty. Shop was clean and even with limited staff was getting people served and out the door efficiently.
