Customer Reviews

The donuts here are good but a little dry/over baked. They still have good flavors and plenty of options. The worker was friendly and helpful and the atmosphere was great! It was decorated and themed out. I'd probably come back again.

My daughter and I stopped by Bill Donuts! This place us very hospitable, amazing people. Family owned vibe. Donuts where delicious and baby loved the donut holes! ?? I even forgot my wallet at home and they didn?t have Apple Pay and they let baby girl have our order ?? not everyone can do that nowadays, meant a lot definitely will be back! Owe em $10 ??????

It seems like people who review donut shops in this area have no idea what a real homemade donut taste like.. Bill's donuts are the same ones at Safeway. Maybe not even as good those.they are purchased frozen pre-made. they are not made By hand in like in a bakery. Donut shop owners who don't even bother to make their own product. Fake frozen premade donuts. If you want real doughnuts, you could go to heavenly doughnuts in Cameron Park or b. J cinnamon in folsom or donuts and cinnamon in rocklin, all 3 ar

I used to come here at least once a week over a decade ago when I went to junior high school across the street. I haven?t lived locally since moving to college, but had to visit when I was back in town today. The craziest part is THEY HAVENT RAISED THEIR PRICES. The lady even slipped in an extra. $1 for 2 donuts. These guys rock!!!

Very friendly family oriented place. Donuts were very small and seemed stale. Which was strange because when I visited on two separate occasions it was before 7:00 a.m.

The customer service is good and fresh donuts. I recommend you guys.

Best donuts in town. Love this place. Highly recommend Bill?s donuts. Especially their glaze. Its my favorite.

Bill's is solid. Not the best donut around, but still good. The folks that work there are always super friendly and the atmosphere is awesome.

Good 'Ol boys drinking coffee, having a donut, and solving all the world's problems...... Bought a dozen donuts, and Rose gave me two dozen. That was enough to share at the Post Office and with friends! Handicap access friendly, family friendly, everybody's welcome!

Wunderbar!! Yes! Yes! Yes! Sorry! I get a bit carried away when my past comes back to me in smiles? I've been fortunate as a "Sexagenarian" to have had delicious doughnuts around the United States. Having a paper route delivering the San Jose Mercury and the San Francisco Chronicle in "The Bay" I would purposely tell my Route manager I was short newspapers in my bundle so that I could sell newspapers at Winchell donuts. I must admit,I had to remove all the newspapers from the machines and sell them by hand

I love this place. I ate four donuts and didn't feel bloated what's up with that? Great Donuts not overpowering amazing taste!

A Granite Bay Community Landmark. Regular customers, parents getting kids morning treats, people enroute to work, fiery political discussions, world problems solved with the help of fresh doughnuts and Farmer Brothers coffee.

My roommates and I had the assorted dozen delivered through Doordash, and they were amazing. I?ve been craving donuts that taste homemade, rather than the heavily processed, extra sugary ones. These were incredibly satisfying. I?ll definitely order again, and I strongly recommend them!

These are the best donuts ever! Have you ever had a donut and after you have eaten it your mouth taste like lard... NOT at Bill's after you eat one their donuts there is no greasy aftertaste they are soooo yummy you only want another..... Rose is the best she is very helpful and friendly great customer service she even helps me carry my six dozen donuts to the car :-)

Classic old-school donut shop. Every time I visit it reminds me of trips to get donuts as kiddo. The donuts are wonderful and the service is top notch I have never felt let down. Grab a donut and head to lake Folsom for a walk!

Friendly service, reasonable prices, great products. Go early, as regular patrons tend to clean out their stock pretty quickly! They gave me a discount one day when their selection was unusually poor in the later morning, very impressed by their service. They also now have a card reader and were able to accept my Visa debit card, so no reason not to visit them if you tend not to carry cash or checks. Wish they would carry whole milk in their drink fridge though- although maybe that's been out of stock too w

It?s hard to go wrong with donuts, and this place is the best of the best? No kidding! I will drive out of my way to go here every time

I Don't know her name but the woman at the counter is always friendly and even when there are several customers in line she can grab what you need in seconds have it rang up and have you on your way. This is great because it gets busy sometimes and I am usually on my way to work when I stop by.

Great fresh donuts the staff is super nice and the price is reasonable. The decor inside looks like it has been updated since it opened but that's normal for a donut shop. ??

Heard about Bill's donuts through Mojo's videos. Always willing to support a family owned business. Best donuts in town.

C'mon, it's donuts. What's not to like? Smelled like my in-law's house. ?????????? Cute place and friendly server at the counter. Excellent donuts. A++

All of my experiences here start with me needing something and finish with me feeling satisfied AF. 5 stars is the least I can do.

Yummy donuts and they are always very generous. Staff is always nice. I choose here over a chain restaurant.

The best doughnuts. And I feel good coming here.

Handmade donuts. Lovely art work on the walls. Super friendly service.

They don't carry much variety but their donuts are good and the place has a very nostalgic feel to it.
