Placed an order for 12, received 18 no extra charge and absolutely delicious. Thank you for your gratitude and may you continue your successful journey.
Fresh donuts: Yes Good donuts: Yes A lot of donuts: Yes Nice place: Averaged Inside dining: Yes Other food: Yes, breakfast bagels & sandwiches & variety of drinks. Service: Need improvement in language, due to this problem, I was missing 3 donuts...I don't know why they took them out of the box. Cheap/Expensive...?? I would say...expensive, I only got 14 donuts ( without counting the ones they missed ) for $23...tip them $3 on top of that...yikes.?? Recommend: Yes, just make sure you pay attention to what
I decided to try a different donut shop this time because I see how this donut shop is attempting to be innovative. The customer service is spot on. I was greeted warmly by several people when I arrived and thanked by everyone in the shop. The donuts were pretty tasty, and I recommend the unicorn or maple bacon donut. They do offer the ability to pay with ATM. The specialty donuts can run you about $3 each.
The donuts look great, the staff is very kind and polite, and the room gives that nostalgic feeling every cozy donut shop has. It's absolutely wonderful.
Great staff and wonderful doughnuts.... I buy them at least 4 times a month
Fast way to get great donuts. Great variety and new special style donuts from time to time.
Great place, been coming here for years. The donuts are always good. Service is great too. My Daughters love the doughnuts ?? I will come back soon??
Their glaze donut with strawberries and whipped cream is to die for
Very nice workers, very delicious donuts with unique creations! Kids and adults will love it!
Great doughnuts. The problem, they constantly "forget" to fulfill your order. My wife door dashs' fails doughnuts and they always leave out one or two doughnuts. It's happened now 7 times. It happens so much with consistency that it has to be done on purpose. I'd say go into the store but even when I go there and place my order I'll check the box at the counter or in my car and they still "forget" to fulfill my order by shorting me one or two doughnuts. This is some slimy and poor business tactics to try an
For decades the best of the best donuts in town. Get off the freeway and take a break here!
Love this place! My husband and sons favorite donut shop in town! Very friendly owners and workers. So talented too. They work very hard and long hours to prepare everything for the next day. I've seen them very late at night. The donuts are priced fairly and taste amazing! They have a strawberry sandwich type donut that has frosting and whole strawberries and it's one of my son's and husband's faves. They also do some fun characters and custom donuts if you call a few days in advance! Good location as well
Absolutely delicious!! Worth the quick stop on a long road trip
Very friendly service and amazing donuts. The unicorn donuts are definitely unique among places around this area and very fresh. Definitely recommend.
Great donut ?? shop with fresh "home made" donuts! A large variety of donuts ??, from the traditional to ones with fruity pebbles and cute unicorn ?? and mermaid donuts! So many other goodies, I can't possibly list them all bars, donut holes, cinnamon rolls, crescent rolls ?? breakfast sandwiches, milk ?? flavored milk, coffee? soda?? fruit juice??... The prices are listed on a large menu that is easy to see. There are individual prices or you can buy them by the dozen or half dozen. The people ???? are alw
Best donuts in turlock, not the best I've had. I do appreciate the fancy art ones they make, the kid loves the unicorn one. They carry a lot of donuts, never run out really, because I'm sure you have gone to get donuts one morning by 10am and they're sold out, and you debate showing your face at home empty handed.
Service was great. Donuts amazing ! My 8 year old grandson said he would give more stars if he could !
I saw this place on the news program GoodDay CW31 on Sunday (Aug 26, 2020) and saw all the amazingly decorated and unique donuts in their display. I went the very next day and brought home a Fruit Loops, Unicorn, Rainbow, and Strawberry and whipped cream stuffed donuts for my kids. They were super excited and the donuts tasted delicious. There is a lot of detail put into these little edible works of art that you get for a decent price. Right now during the pandemic, there are 4 customers allowed in store an
The donuts are fresh and delicious. Fair prices. The staff is super friendly. Definitely recommend this place. ??????
They're cheap and getting donuts here to bring home to my family to eat with hot tea on cold days. Best thing ever. Sometimes the donuts can get just a little stale if you go later in the day but otherwise great selection, nothing too fancy, and friendly staff. Definitely a neat little place you can have a seat and drink some coffee, eat some donuts. Feel good place without breaking the bank :) love it!
Very friendly service. Quick and courteous. Walked into a line but we were in and out in no time. Great fresh donuts with all of the classics and some creative new twists from fresh fruit to cereal toppings. Cool designs for the kids and traditional hot coffee for the grown ups. Highly recommended!
This place rocks ! I love the people there! Fast and efficient service even when they're busy. It is a small place to sit down and enjoy your coffee and donuts but they're improving. That is my only reason why I didn't give 5 stars but that doesn't stop customers from coming and hanging out at the store early in the morning. I love the selection and the freshness and I highly recommend checking them out.
OMG.... These donuts are beyond Good. They are still good after the second Day. Friendly place... The BEST DONUTS..... Went there today. I think they changed their recipe 5/20/2021 The donuts are tough really chewy. they used to melt in your mouth. maybe they changed management. I'll try one more time b4 I give up to quick. They were the BEST
I enjoy dropping in a couple pf times a week. The family is very friendly. The coffee is excellent and the donuts are delicious. It is often quiet when I'm there, and I can read a novel or newspaper, or chat with the owners. I feel like part of the family.
I tried out this place for the first time and honestly, they have some of the best donuts I've had in a long while. They were soft and fluffy, you can tell the were definitely fresh. The lady that assisted us was super sweet and even threw in some free donuts for us.. definitely will be going back
Fails Donut Factory by far is the best donut shop for miles! I ordered jelly, chocolate, eclairs and many more! These are fresh and delicious ?? They make just about anything you would want! Beautiful displays, even letters and words made of donuts! I'm very impressed with this business and the owners are so friendly. I definitely suggest you try Fails!!
Great place to grab donuts ....and they have a few different specialty ones the kids really enjoy. They've had Spiderman themed and several others like it. Today they had an oreo one, mini m&ms and 2 others.
I've heard many good things about Fails but I wasn't too impressed. Donuts are good, of course, but these days you have to be different. I gave them four stars because I found the donuts a little too glazed and sugary. The place looks like it's still stuck in the '90's - time to update the inside and maybe drop the "Fails" and just keep the catchy name "The Donut Factory".
Omg these donuts are amazing. They are fresh,warm and delicious. When ever I go the owners who are a very sweet and lovely Asian couple give me donut holes for free they always add a handful to my bag. It's the only place in turlock that has the best donuts. Plus the service is always with smile.
I was on vacation visiting my sister in Turlock, and had a taste for some authentic donuts(not the everyday Walmart bakery ones). My search brought me to Fails Donut Factory, and I was so happy I found this place. The service was excellent and the donuts were fresh and moist. They have some of the most creative donuts I?ve seen. My girls loved the mermaid decorations on their donuts. They even had donuts designed like a foot(I thought that was cute). I would definitely come back and I made sure to tell my s
Great place & the family that owns it are very friendly and helpful. I love that they open very early & are open later than expected as well. & The doughnuts are AMAZING! Lots of choices & who doesn't love their doughnut holes?! They're the best! Have been customers for almost 8 years now & will continue to visit Fails. The shop isn't much to look at, but it's always clean, the doughnuts are fresh & the service is always friendly.
Best donuts in town, hands down. Great selection of all kinds of donuts with some really cool unique ones. Special shout out?s to the Apple fritters and old fashioned?s. Great prices too!
Most likely not coming back here start off with a bad first impression due to as we walked in he couldnt get off his phine, there selection wasn't as big as their photos show, and on top of that my girlfriend and I sat down to enjoy our donuts and he ask us to pretty much leave, so we got home and realized he didn't even give us all of our donuts that we had bought. Very bad experience wouldn't recommend it to anyone.
I just went to Fails donut factory for the first time today. They had a Huge variety of donuts including apple fritters and filled donuts. The staff was very friendly, the shop was clean and their donuts were delicious. I'm always brutally honest so check out Fails donut factory in Turlock and find out for yourself .
Their donuts are so good even their ham and cheese croissant! We only found this after we would leave KFC and decided to give it a try. Even the customers here were friendly asking if we wanted more coffee before they served themselves off the hot pot!
The donuts were fresh. I was hoping by getting there early we would have a lot bigger selection, but she said the fancy donuts are from 7-8 am. That a bummer, but the donuts are still great!
I?m from out of town and a family member recommended Fails for a baby shower we were hosting. The donuts were INCREDIBLE! The staff was SO nice. I so wish we had a fails in IDAHO. Lol we will be bringing a dozen back for sure!
On par with Mr. T's donuts in Modesto. My family is super picky about donuts and Fails never disappoints. Great selection of speciality donuts and fun ones for kiddos too. Always fresh. Very friendly staff.
writing the review after the new girl at the shop or at least my first time seeing her there ruined the donut and my morning. she acted like i was the one with accent after i told her 3 times (glazed donut). after opening the paper bag, donuts were smashed against each other so i had to eat it with spoon. Geer rd donut shop is the to go place.
Love this donut shop. Best donut shop ever. Love the staff. Go their there early as on some donuts go real fast. Coffee is good too. Always find people sitting around visiting with other customers.
The best donuts I?ve had without a doubt stopped by in the morning for a few donuts before work the glaze on the fruity pebbles was crunchy and amazing for sure going to be my new go to breakfast spot before work
Love their donuts ?? this is my to-go place, been going for years but this time one of the girls that help me was kinda rude, it seemed she wanted to get me out in a hurry also before I ordered I asked if they took debit cards cause I saw that I didn't have much cash on me and she said No but I had just seen someone in front of me pay with the card so I asked again and she told me just cash so I decided to get a few donuts because I only had a bit of cash on me if not I would've got a few dozen for a few of
Delicious donuts! Great staff. ??
I helped build Stan Fail's first Donut shop in The Mitchell Plaza in Ceres, CA in 1980. Great people that brought us fresh donuts from the Turlock store whenever he came to the jobsite. Worked for Huff Construction back then and I must say, that's where I got the foundation of the Excellent Carpenter I became and..........I ARE A GREAT CARPINTER lol??!!!
Best place ever I went for the first time and it?s better then any other place super friendly and she even gave us free donut holes in our dozen donut box. And they?re cute and creative and super good. ??
Good donuts, nice employees.
My man says he?s never coming back. I got an instant Cavity & headache. Was expecting way more than what I saw when I got there. Disappointing. Where were all the specialty donuts? Looks and smells like a regular run of the mill donut shop to me.
The doughnut shop was clean they are customer oriented and super friendly but overall the doughnuts were amazingly delicious it's been a while since I've had delicious doughnuts and I will definitely be making more trips from Patterson to buy more doughnuts I definitely recommend stopping by and try a doughnut
I always make sure to visit our locally owned stores and Fails Donut Factory has been in Business here in Turlock for some time And always has a Great selection of tasty Donuts /pastries.I have been a satisfied customer everytime thank you Fails Donut Factory we appreciate you my stomach agrees! MichaelPhillips
Donuts were ok, better than other options in Turlock but not the best I've had either. The place is grungy though. Didn't get a good vibe from the atmosphere. To to it off the window had a bullet hole.
The people here are so friendly! The ham & cheese croissant was warm and delicious. I?d definitely recommend checking them out!
Best donut shop in town. Great selection of donuts that are always fresh and good price to for a dozen. ??
Amazing customer service! Doughnuts are always fresh even in the late morning. Designs are spot on and a dozen makes a great gift!
Phenomenal donuts at this place. If you haven't tied fails you gotta go there! Hands down best donuts in california
Fail's has been the go to donut shop for my family for over 30 years. Prices are good and the donuts are too. It may not be a pretty place to look at, but does it need to be?
In my Opinion, best Donuts in Turlock CA! My babies love the decorative donuts, for my son the captain America, and my daughter the beautiful white unicorn($3.00)!
I've been to many doughnut shops across the country and this by far, not even close in comparison, is the best and I mean best doughnuts in the planet!
They have fresh donuts that are also pretty
Went fails again good people tho the seem kinda Nevers when I walk in full Afro eyes red and smelling like a long night. But they were awesome I tip them very well going their again tonight oh yea
My favorite Donut Shop in the world located in Downtown Turlock. So fresh, fluffy and delicious.
Didn't get ALL the donuts that I picked out. Noticed that when I got home. When I went back to get them, I was bad mouthed in a different language as if it was my mistake. Smh....bad business ethics. Besides I thought "the customer is always right" won't be going back anytime soon ??
Bought a dozen doughnuts and to my surprise there was an extra one that turned out to be a new favorite, thanks fails! You succeeded in gaining a new customer!
Delicious donuts. I was able to pick up some really great character specialty donuts for my kids.
First time going here and they definitely have good fresh tasting donuts. Also a good variety to choose from and they open very early.
About once a year we get donuts. This is our go to place. They never fail us. Absolutely delicious.
Always have amazing decorated donuts!
I thought the customer service was fine but the selection of donuts and the taste of the one I had just wasn't up to par.
I am saying nothing bad about this place or its products. I just prefer a different business's product. The donuts just didn't seem to age as well. Perhaps the oil?
Great donuts and service. A wide variety of flavors and styles. I like that they're open later than most donut shops.
Amazing donut shop with amazing decorated donuts. They can also do custom do uts for.parties if you order ahead
Best donuts in the county, maybe in the state. I've been to a lot of them, so this is a lot of experience talking. Almost always have a decent selection.
Doughnuts are fresh and fluffy. This place always satisfies. Highly recommend if you live in the area.
They have mermaid and unicorn donuts. Also have cereal topped donuts, they were frosting fruity pebbles ones while I was thwre.. just awesome
Great, quick, friendly friendly service. Donuts are fantastic. There is some seating so you can eat the donuts there.

Good donuts. Caught them at the end of the day so the selection was a little lean but there was enough to satisfy the sugar cravings
Love there outstanding decorated maple bacon donuts and strawberry shortcake the best ones.
Great costumer service. And the donuts have a great taste and are really unique.
Donuts are awesome. Always have a great selection.
