Best World Donuts

Best World Donuts

Reviews Summary

The reviews present a polarized consensus. Many praise the donuts (especially glazed, ham & cheese croissants with jalapeños) for freshness and flavor, calling them "world's best," with quick service and friendly staff. Several highlight long-term loyalty. However, multiple reports cite rude, racist behavior from staff, particularly toward hijab-wearing customers, with complaints about hygiene (flies near donuts) and overcharging. While most ratings are 5-stars, the 1-star reviews consistently describe unacceptable customer service and discrimination, overshadowing the positive feedback for some. The ham & cheese croissants and original glazed donuts are standout favorites.

Customer Reviews

What is it with the bad reviews. It's a donut shop. I pick up donuts there because it's on my way to work. If I get there late afternoon, my choices are limited. My crew at work says it's the best they've had. Better than Winchell or Krispy. The 2 dozen are usually gone by mid shift. Even the guys that don't eat donuts, have one. These donuts are good.

Honestly the name of the shop tells it all. Everytime I always come here in the mornings EVERY time the donuts are always So soft and chewy. Big donuts, with big flavor I am never disappointed here best In Wilmington/Carson

Worst place ever Chinese old woman very rude and didn't give us napkins, over priced. This is not china where people are rude if you don't like it go back. We DO NOT RECOMEND THIS PLACE. DO NOT COME, that they will learn to treat costumers with a smile. It had to be said and we said it.

If I could give a negative 1, I would. The lady here is so rude. I don't know why I ever went to this place in the past. I will never be back again, nor will I ever recommend them. That lady is rude and doesn't care if she gets business or not. They're never getting 1 cent more from me.

Great shop. I'm not a donut person at all but it was national ?? day so I said what the hey and bought 5 dozen to give out. It was so fun. The buttermilk old fashion is sooo good. My son loves the chocolate glazed and my hubby is always down to have their apple fritter or a lemon filled jelly. This local spot is great.

I'm a big fan of Krispy Kreme donuts but this little shop is just as good if not better.

This place has very good donuts and the best apple fritters in town. Donuts are always fresh and even taste good the next day. The guys at work can't get enough of the donuts from here.

The name says it all. I have bought donuts here for many years and brought them to many different companies that I worked for and I always get the same question where did you get these delicious donuts. No one makes donuts like this place truly the best donuts I've ever eaten in my life

Woke up this morning and craving for a donut. So I decided to try this place. I walked in and was greeted. They dont have that much variety, however the one I tried was delicious. The glazed donut was fluffy, soft and not too sweet. One of the best one I've had in a long time. The Cinnamon Roll was also amazing. Will definitely come back for more.

I was originally happy to find a location on one of my routes, as a trucker. As I went in the lady had GREAT customer service. Until she helped me. I can already hear the venom spewing from her mouth, but still wanted to be polite. With hopes that I can change her bigotry & islamophobia, I noticed she wanted to charge me $2.00 more for a slice of Turkey on my croissant vs the ham. When I graciously asked her the reason, she denied me service. I won?t internalize her hate, but this is just sad!

I?ve been coming here for over 20 years. Great owners! Great donuts! I?ve taken these donuts to numerous functions and get togethers. There?re always a hit!

Don?t go here if you don?t want to be racially profiled. It?s amusing to me the customer service this place has, your white no problem, instantly if you?re someone from another race the attitude starts. So sad I don?t know how this place is still in business. The owner needs to be checked big time, horrible place and please don?t spend your money here. It will only feed their disgusting ego. The lady at the cashier is the worst.

The guy from this donutshop was completely rude and rolled his eyes at me for taking a second to choose a donut. He seemed bothered by customers in general . I will never go there again.

Please don't come here worst costumer service the lady is really rude and by the way I paid with a 10 dollar bill and I only bought a small French vanilla drink and she gave me back two dollars so u need too tell me I paid 8 dollars for my small drink what a joke don't come here she will rip u off for your money just go to Winchells donuts or somewhere else!

On Sundays I go to church at CCSB and after service I stop in the church cafe and always get donuts to go cos they are the best and fresh. Its kind of a treat for me knowing Im going to get me a donut afterwards. Well today I asked the counter girl where they got their donuts from and she said Worlds Best in the area. Well as soon as I got in my car I googled them, well I was so happy to find out they are in Carson very close to my home. Cant wait to go there Mon. morning to get some donuts and maybe a ham

I wish we could have give this place less then one star because this place is racist the management judge you by the clothes and talk rude all of my family friends and relatives will never come here and make sure to give you a star that you guys deserve ? !! Fix your management and teach them manners how to talk with customers and not to judge them by them clothes or religion. Nasty place !!

It's really hard to find donuts that taste good and have plenty in stock this place always has what I want and always taste fresh. Besides that they always takes my large orders even though I keep forgetting to call ahead of time and order they go out of their way to make sure that we customers are satisfied

Worlds best donuts in the entire planet. Don't sleep on this Carson location. Get there early because they sell out quick. Worth every penny.

They have the best cream filled donuts. We drive an hour to go buy these donuts. Totally worth it. They are by far the best we?ve ever had!
