Customer Reviews

Christiana and Mike are just really great people; their kids have great customer service too. Family owned and operated locally owned place. The glazed yeast donuts are just on. Point. SO GOOD! My kids favorite are their candy and cereal special donuts. This place has great donuts all around, always a hit with our crew!

One of the best old fashioned donut shops I've ever been to. Absolutely the freshest you can get. They open at 6:00 in the morning, and close when they're sold out. When they're gone, they're gone. Oh yeah. They are cash only - no plastic money at all.

The best donuts around! Never had a better donut then these. They are lighter and easier on the stomach. The sweetness is just right and the service is always great. Look no further!

Great place for donuts that are not from a big chain shop. Very helpful and very friendly. The donuts are very tasty.

Always a fun place to meander through, you never know what you'll find. This time it was a perfect shirt I needed for for a '60s party. I'm sure I'll have fun wearing it other times too!

Bakery on site! Dozens of fresh baked and iced sweet rolls and donuts, ready by 06:15 in the morning! AND coffee!!! This is a big treat for Borrego girl on an overnight visit to Ramona ??.

Best apple fritters in the area. All of thier donuts are great too.

Baked Fresh Daily. Getting there early allows for more choices!! Boston Creams & Apple Fritters here I come!!

Went to get a dozen donuts for my workers, they raised their price to 24.99 a dozen. That would be the last time I give them any business, since they insist on price gouging.

Local donut shop in Ramona. Good donuts. A little spendy for donuts and they only take cash (which is a little inconvenient, they really should change that).

Grossest old doughnuts ever. 2 different types at 11am and I had to spit each on out. FN GROSS! Nice people tho

Classic Ramona. Family owned and operated!. Flavors are spot on. Cash only and worth every penny.

Gotta love a true to the roots donut shop. This place has great apple fritters. Been a hometown favorite for generations.

Unexpectedly great service!

Exactly what we wanted! Cash only so make sure to plan ahead. Highly recommended!

Pretty tasty. My morbid obesity was beginning to dwindle so I jumped into action and replaced the poundage. Good bear claw.

These are the only donuts Ali I live in Santee and every time I come to Ramona I have to stop by and get donuts I won't buy him anywhere else
