Customer Reviews

This was our first time at DC donut. They sell donuts, breakfast sandwiches and even soup! They also have smoothies and even fresh pressed juices. We had a sausage croissant sandwich , bagel egg sandwich and chicken rice and veggies soup for breakfast! We also tried the donuts and coffee. Everything was good. ??

I don't even know where to begin...we went here after church...we purchased donuts and ATE them...thennwe looked in the cabinet because we were going to order something else...and noticed there was hair and a ball of dust on the doughnut holes!!! We brought it to their attention...and the lady said it was from the rag when they were trying to get rid of the fruit fly inside the case!!! Yikes. I ordered my daughter a crossiant sandwich and there was a clump of hair inside her sandwich!!! Needless to say we

Need donuts? How about coffee? Lunch time and a sandwich sounds good? DC Donut Cafe is your all in one, go to stop. Donut holes are light, airy yet full of flavor. The pastrami sandwich was lean, mean and super tasty. The turkey sandwich on croissant was HUGE!! Pay the extra and add avocado. Tucked away in the corner, down from 711. Parking can be a pain. Give yourself a few extra minutes and have a little patience. Shout out to employees Jessika D., Melissa V., and Ariel. Answered my endless que

So delicious! Ordered via Uber Eats today due to a case of the lazy Sundaze. We got the #10 (egg, cheese, sausage, bacon, ham croissant) and Vietnamese coffee. My partner ordered without cheese and the boxes were clearly labeled. The service was fast, the croissants are warm, fresh, and delicious. The Vietnamese coffee is on point. So good and sealed with a cute face for travel. All around impressed and would definitely recommend!

First time ordering from this place. I got the basic croissant sandwich which was only 8 bucks or so, and it is delicious. I got two thinking one wouldn?t be enough but it?s very densely packed and absolutely delicious and fresh. Hope you guys maintain your quality as your business grows.

I got the turkey club sandwich. I added the chips it didn't come with it sorry guys but. The sandwich is huge and was only 9.50 .. I believe it's the owner who made my sandwich and she was very kind and made me feel welcome. They have stamp cards so buy ten drinks get one free I'll definitely be back ten times lol .

I went here for the first time and the food was amazing!! (especially the boba smoothie) Furthermore, the customer service was so welcoming and kind, I would 100% come back here in the future!

This place is amazing! The owners always treat me well and are so generous. The food is delicious! Everything I have tried is so good. I recently placed a large order of breakfast croissants for work and they gave us free donuts. Thank you for your generosity! 10/10 recommend!

Ordered a turkey club through grub-hub on a very early Sunday morning since I didn?t have time to make myself breakfast for work. I was surprised to see a donut i hadn?t ordered and it said ?bonus? with a smiley face on the bag of it. Can tell they are really sweet people and care about their customers, highly recommend.

I used to only go there because they have a good selection of donuts. But lately they haven't been having any selection...????

Extremely superb customer service! The owners bring a welcoming and friendly atmosphere. I highly recommend coming here.

I was feeling adventurous so I decided to explore DC Donut's coffee menu. First I ordered a Vanilla Frappucino. It was really good, better than Paris Baguette and larger (24 ounce I believe). It comes with two shots of espresso and tastes like coffee. Much better than Starbucks who doesn't even give you a shot in their Frappucinos anymore. My next visit, I thought the coffee was so good in that Frappucino, so I ordered an americano just to see how good the coffee itself was. They are using Gavina beans (not

Discovered new place in my neighborhood. Inside very clean and many options from sandwiches,donuts and drinks. Stuff and owners very friendly :) I got donuts and ice tea with fruits and it was very good. A++

Honestly this place went down hill over the year or two. If I?m going to be almost spending 70$ then I would expect my order to be done correctly. They didn?t care to read the special instructions on any of the items.

Came here twice so far and really happy with our visits both times. Will definitely be coming back often. First of all, the customer service is above and beyond. They are very kind, helpful, and welcoming the moment you walk through the door. Our food has been made fresh to order each time. I'm partial to the croissant sandwiches which are made with their freshly baked croissants and they are huge, plenty of food. They make a mean Vietnamese iced coffee ????, and so far both smoothies (strawberry mango and

Best breakfast place in town! The croissant breakfast sandwiches are so big and delicious, buttery warm croissant and lots of fillings to choose from. Freshly squeezed juices as well. To top it off, the owner's Emily and Johnny are so delightful. Great place, will definitely go again.

My go-to breakfast spot! They have the best breakfast sandwiches and sandwiches in general, and have the best bread options- get it on a croissant! Everything is good quality and taste fresh. They have fresh smoothies and juices, and their milk tea/boba is soooo good too. I?ve never had something bad here. The staff and owner are always super friendly and quick.

Excellent sandwiches, reasonably priced and THEY CARE about their customers. These aren't your typical, brain-dead fast food kids. What a pleasure dealing directly with the owners. These folks deserve all the success they get because they earn it.

They have the BEST fresh squeezed juice, sandwiches, boba, and donuts. My new best place for lunch and the service was 5 star. Glad they brought good food for affordable prices into Granada Hills!

This place offers more than just delicious and fresh donuts/pastries!! They also have scrumptious and savory breakfast crossaints/bagels, in addition to tasty lunch sub sandwiches. they even make fresh juices and Boba drinks, plus to die-for Vietnamese coffee that will put the pep in your step!! Overall highly recommend this place, you will not be disappointed with any of your choices from here ?? 5/5 on taste 5/5 for friendly staff

Just had the pleasure of finding this spot today. They are a new local donut shop. In Granada Hills. They are super friendly! they have sandwiches, and BoBa. I got half a dozen donuts and they gave me another half for free. They are pretty bomb! They cinnamon crunch or whatever is amazing! My sister tried the mango strawberry boba. She is mad crazy about boba. She is said it's some of the best she had. Check out this spot! Support your local business!

I went into this donut shop randomly one day with and a group of friends and me and my friends were browsing the selection and I offered to pay for my friends since I was the one who wanted donuts. The owner? or the lady behind the counter saw that I was paying for all of them and gave me a discount. She then gave me and each of my friends a free donut of our choice and put in donut holes in each of our little donut packages. This experience and kindness honestly made my whole day and so I rate the place hi

They have the best donuts and I love their smoothies! The store is clean and inviting and the staff is very friendly. Overall, this place is great; I'll definitely be coming here often.

Wonderful staff. We had a mixup regarding an order that went to the wrong location, and Johnny & his staff couldn't have been more helpful in getting everything resolved. Will always take time to frequent DC!
