Customer Reviews
It?s a nice little spot with friendly service. The donuts are simple and nothing fancy, just your usual lineup, but they do them well. They even gave me a free one, which was a nice touch. If you eat donuts often, I could see this being a regular go-to. But if you?re like me and only have donuts once in a while, there are probably better places worth checking out.
We are so happy to have found this place! The donuts were so tasty, even the next day! The breakfast sandwich was light & flaky, very tasty, and so worth the cost! Service was quick, friendly, and excellent! We will be back!
OMG! Their donuts are sooo good! The maple bar is my favorite! Once I get home, it warm the maple bar for just a few minutes and it's perfect with a cup of coffee. I think I'm addicted!
Great donuts better than any donut had before this place. Great customer service, and my favorite ham, cheese and jalape?o croissant is so good. The donut holes are so delicious and I?ll be going back. The cinnamon donut is flavorful, go get one of these and you won?t regret it
Wonderful little "mom-and-pop" place with remarkably fresh donuts!! Nice selection of regular and fancy donuts ranging in price from $1.65 to $2.95. highly recommend!
Everytime I go the donuts are always so delicious! Even the breakfast items are really good! The staff are also very kind and friendly! I love this cute donut shop, it?s my go to! The last 2 times I went they threw in a free donut, I love it! Thank you!
Incredible donut and even a cronut. But the best part was really the croissant sandwiches for $5! They're huge! And delicious. 50 stars for sure.
Delicious donuts and very kind owner !
Went to get late lunch donuts the young lady orking was super nice.
Their donuts, especially in the early morning, are the softest and sweetest. As a big donut lover this place is the best!
Those is the standard of what a donut shop should be
One of the Best places to grab donuts on the Eastside of Bakersfield. Thanks Jesse's Donut Shop
Best donuts in the Town and maybe in the state
This place is AMAZING! I had a random craving at night and went to get a donut at 7 pm. First of all, what donut place is open until late in the day?? Rarely any... If they are open, that donut has probably been sitting all day and not that great let?s be honest. But the donuts I got there tasted SO good! Better than some other places I?ve been too in the morning. I love donuts and I?m so impressed! ??
I just now got home with my boyfriend after spending $30 on a dozen donuts and 2 smoothies. I was taken back at the price but she explained it to me, (The apple fritters cost 2.50 each) and I understood and left kind of upset.On the ride home after talking with my boyfriend, and tasting the smoothies.... LET ME TELL YOU IM GOING TO BE BACK!! The smoothies alone were worth the $16. The donuts are great too. But those smoothies... so damn good. Great customer service like everyone else has said. Sweet woman.
They have the best donuts in Bakersfield so far! Donuts always taste fresh, usually the next day donuts tend to get hard...but not these! You won?t regret coming here. If your wondering about price it?s $15.00 for a dozen.
Well, got some donuts, and ham and cheese croissants. Donuts were delicious and fresh. The ham n cheese croissants were great..... until I found a long piece of hair in the center of the sandwich. Unfortunately I lost interest and my appetite after that and decided to toss the rest of the sandwich in the trash. I wont bash this place over this one little experience but it was a let down. I'm willing to give them another chance..
Best apple fritter since Winchell's. Friendly service. Lost out on a perfect rating because they may run out of certain donuts later in the day....so get 'em early! Signage says to wear a mask but they do not harass customers if they don't.
This place quickly became our favorite place for donuts. The donuts come out perfectly made and are so soft and delicious.
Absolutely the best donut shop in Bakersfield hands down. I never knew the importance of quality until my sister took me there. She literally buys a dozen donuts 4 days a week. So good and fresh and perfect. Seriously.
Wonderful customer service. The cinnamon crumb doughnut is super delicious!
They have the BEST donuts in Bakersfield. You get your money's worth. Very friendly. Donuts are always fresh and usually still warm. Love the Bacon maple bar and the Apple fritter.
Always recieved fresh delicious donuts. Tried just about every donut in town and this is my go to spot (Smith a close second). Nice staff and can get a bit busy during donut rush hour. The thing I love about this place is that I have not recieved an "old" donut with that distinctive taste. Only suggestion I have is the maple and chocolate bars have are more dense, but this is a perfect world suggestion and by no means does it mean they are not good. Update: Had a maple and chocolate bar recently and they
The place doesn't look like much, but they have the best donuts ever. Their old fashions, donut holes, and chocolate covered custard filled are like bites from heaven! They're airy and so, so light that they just melt in your mouth. Seriously give this place a chance!
Best donuts! Friendly staff.
This Was My First Time Here Personally, Although I Have Tasted The Donuts Before From Friends Gifted Goodies!!! I Had The Maple Bar And Let Me Tell You...Soft & Gooey...DELICIOUS GOODNESS!!! Great Service Too????
Very expensive and the donuts were not fresh at 6 am. You think they'd be super fresh at 6 in the morning. Nope. And their donuts are super small.
Very good donuts and very friendly service.
The donuts were delicious and the owner was so sweet and kind. I definitely recommend this place for sweets.
BEST donuts in Bakersfield! Trust me! I know... You wouldn't think that from the location, but you won't know until you try them. We've done multiple taste tests compared to regular and high-end, fancy (read expensive) donut shops across town... Jess's wins hands down! Even taste-tested the cronuts that were 3x as expensive from Sugar Twist...Jess's were best texture and flavor. This place is worth the drive. Sugar Twist, Smith's, Tastries and others will do in a pinch. But if you want to make those calorie
Great donuts but they run out fast.
Great place for doughnuts. Fresh made everyday. Goes great with a good cup of Joe in the am.
Love the donuts here, best place to get some. They have little tables as well if you would like to sit inside to eat/drink coffee and enjoy the smell of freash made dounts.
100% The most yummy doughnuts in Bakersfield. Not a single complaint about Jesses Doughnuts, only it would be so great to have an additional shop somewhere closer to the downtown area. But hey, they are so worth the drive.
Best donuts in town. After being introduced to this shop, I haven't gone anywhere else.
Best donuts in town without a doubt because they aren't to sweet and have so much flavor. The dough isn't dry or moist, it's just right. It's AMAZING!!!
Best donuts in Bakersfield, and a pleasant staff. Would highly recommend. - update- Two years later and this comment still holds true.
Best donuts in Bakersfield! Great customer service: friendly, fast, and efficient. Donuts are always fresh with a good selection.
I love this place. This is the place my family has gone to for years. they are nice people and their donuts are super yummy! And OMG their chocolate milk is to die for. Just sayin...
Part of what makes East Bakersfield good
Been here numerous times, staff is always so friendly and the donuts are always delicious! You must try the crumbs donut!
Best donuts and bomb ham and cheese croissant sandwich?s
I found the best donuts I've ever tasted. The only problem is they can only be bought 800 miles away from home.
Love there fresh Donuts. The short dark head lady is always nice and polite every visit.
Best donuts I?ve never had the pleasure of tasting - if only I could get her to deliver to Titusville..??????
I was outside around 7:13 and the doors are locked and it has the sign that says open but the car of the guy that works here is outside and it's not even 8:00 which time that they close at the doors are already locked at 7:13 and that was just weird to me so I'm just making a complain to if anybody comes here like late just be ready for the doors to be locked
I asked for bacon/maple bars and they made them on the spot. Always nice and good quality donuts!
Friendly welcoming staff. Good selection to choose from. Have coffee and milk, juice,croissants plain,ham and cheese& jalapeno with cheese.
