Customer Reviews

A tasty and unique spot featuring Vietnamese coffee with a well-rounded flavor. They had a special Mother?s Day donut today, which was a lovely touch. The other eateries we tried here were also excellent. Don?t miss it if you?re in the area.

First time trying this place. Very delicious. Donuts were fresh, the fritter was still slightly warm. Got Vietnamese coffee which is pretty tasty. They all look great and I always appreciate when boxes/drinks are sealed for delivery. Would definitely recommend. Unique style of blueberry donut glaze too, very nice!

I absolutely love this place because how affordable it is. I?d love the donuts, especially the Oreo chocolate doughnut. I also love that they throw in little free donut holes every once in a while with the orders. The croissant ham and cheese sandwiches the best that I?ve had so far, I absolutely love the tea with the Boba. The tea is a little bit too sweet so you might want to ask them to add less sugar. They always try to make specials and offers. They have plenty of parking. However, there aren?t really

When sonic left I was kinda sad. But the king Dounuts. Is the beez neez. Absolutely delicious dounts and there dragon fruit tea is something to die for. Plus they give you ball dounts as a bonus??. Last the people there are friendly. I now make this spot my go to dount shop. Don't believe me look at these delicious photos and try it yourself.??????????????????

People here are super kind and donuts have always been good. the special donuts are super cool i got this huge apple crumble one and it was delicious ??

Great food with great service! I was waited on right away. The order taker was very friendly and efficient. The lobby was pretty clean and bright. All trash was picked up and floor swept and mopped. Drink station was clean and well stocked. Drink station had no visible signs. Thanks so much for keeping us the consumer safe, Darrin

I love that this is open 24/7. The service was great as the employee was very nice. He gave us 2 donut holes for free, it was a little something. Also the ham and cheese croissant was DELICIOUS! it was buttery and it was tasty! I will be coming back!

This place by far is top 3 on my list. I purchased donuts in the evening and they were as fresh and delicious. I've tried a lot of donut chains and Independent shops in the valley and King Donuts in my top 3.

I picked up a DD order here and decided I wanted to try their donuts after my shift, since they're open 24 hours (major bonus)! I only ordered one-- I was delighted by the chocolate iced Old Fashioned. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I'd definitely go back!!

Ordered donuts late in the evening, the donuts were fresh, definitely raised dough, not over iced, it was like I remember from my childhood. Great donuts, simple and to the point.

Where I drove there at midnight one of those midnight snacks that you needed one of those craves one of those munchies hehe. Anyways very good fresh donuts even at midnight. The service was great. Nobody was in the drive-thru in and out. Most donuts were in stock at midnight. The only reason I gave a three-star atmosphere is because drive-thru was only open which I can understand but here was at midnight but still I wanted to see the donuts and pick them out versus intercom exchange

Tl;Dr: Love it! Man.. I hate requests for tipping when paying out at a drive thru. Sorta brings out the gripey old man in me. I was travelling through town and decided I needed a donut on Easter Sunday morning. Tried stopping at a donut shop that happened to be closed, so a quick Google search led me here. I ordered my donut, got another for the road and pulled to the window. Staff was friendly,band handed me the card reader to "choose an option." Well, I chose not to. What did they do for me other tha

5 stars because this place is always good but they need to train their new people better ??

Very nice place. They replaced the sonic here and i can't say ill miss sonic much. My favorite thing so far has got to be the ham cheese and jalape?os croissant. Its so good especially warmed up. The croissant is light fluffy and delicious, great ham, and pleanty of jalape?os. I had some donuts as well and i LOVE THEM. The maple buttermilk donut is so good toasty and a great balance. The glazed is a l8ttle dense but just what you want. They also have something i havent seen anywhere else, the butterfly. It

Doughnuts baked onsite are amazing. Fresh baked croissant make the best breakfast or lunch sammie?s. Fresh made fruit smoothies also avail. Drive thru or sit outside, do not skip this place! Sonic who???

BEST DONUTS IV EVER HAD, I LIVE RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET AND THE CUSTOMER SERVICE IS OUTSTANDING!! ? OPEN 24 HOURS MADE FRESH EVERY MORNING, GREAT PRICES AND THEY ADD A FEW GLAZED DONUT HOLES TO EACH ORDER ? I LOVE KING DONUTS 10000% RATING!! THANK YOU FOR AMAZING DONUTS AND SERVICE KING DONUTS ?? ?

One of the best places in town to get fresh donuts. Love the 24 hour drive through! Highly recommend their teas and boba as well.

Got some donuts and there fresh as can be. I'm not gonna miss sonic had this place back in Cali and the taste w came with them. grabbed a couple Boba drinks Strawberry, Passion fruit and of course Mango. All extremely delicious.

First time order, had delivered. Everyone said the donuts were better than most.

I ordered a Thai tea and 2 apple crumb doughnuts and WOW ?? delicious tea and the doughnuts were amazing so fresh and lots of tasty apple filling. Looks clean inside. Service with a smile. Don't pass this place up plus 24hrs??

My family and coworkers really like these donuts ?? they definitely are better tasting, fluffier and soft! I prefer these over Bosa and Dunkin!

Wonderful staff and amazing!!! Doughnuts. Perfect balance of a nice fluffy dough, slightly flakey and a perfectly crisp edge, I'll be back everyday now!

Genuinely, the best donuts I have ever eaten. The bagels are fabulous too. Beautiful fluffy clouds of lightly toasted heaven. I'm getting hungry again just thinking about them. Service is always good too. Some of the workers have accents that are slightly harder to understand, but they are still very polite and will speak louder if you ask. The menu is easy to read, the prices are really good, and the serving sizes are more than reasonable. Can't recommend them enough.

Excellent Donut Spot! The Fritter is the best and fruitiest I have tasted in a while! The Double Chocolate Cake Donut is awesome. The Chocolate Raised and the Maple Raised are fine. Go here!

Hands down our favorite donut shop! Fresh, low prices and very nice employees

We just moved here in the area, tried a couple of different items and everything surprises us every single time on how delicious it is. If you haven?t yet try a vanilla ice cream donut ??

My favorite donut shop was in California. After having Kings Donuts multiple times now it is now my favorite donut shop in Arizona or California and I recommend it to everyone. They have amazing classic donuts, extremely soft, and not overly greasy.

I work graveyard shift and saw his was open 24hours. I knew I wanted a donut but at 2am in the morning you can have a fresh sandwich or breakfast sandwich, with a large amount of drink selections and huge amount of donut selection. Our place put in an order for 6 different people, drinks sandwich and dessert came in from 9 dollars to 13.50 dollars per person. We decided to give a heads up and call ahead for our order, to give the chef time to pull it all together. I would absolutely recommend this place for

The family that runs this shop is always so nice and happy to see us. The donuts are light and fluffy, and the glazes are alwaus flavorful and glossy. Their stuffed croissants are my personal favorite. Their taro milk tea smoothie is my go to drink but the cookies and cream one is another really popular option. The Thai Tea is amazing too.

Workers were super nice. They gave us a pup cup for our dog, he loved it! The Thai tea and breakfast croissants were awesome. The glazed donut was amazing and I can?t wait to try more next time

Best donuts bar none. Great Vietnamese coffee and great coffee mixed drinks.

The woman who took my order ,I tell you, those people are so friendly. She gave me free donut holes . I would go there from now on. Donuts are superb, delicious, and fresh. . It just melted in my mouth. Savoring the flavors as it went down to my stomach . Yummy, yummy food ??

The most amazing donut place in Arizona! Went at 12:30am and they still had a fresh selection of almost 40 different donuts and even gave us 2 extra for free and upgraded our drink size with no extra charge! Service was impeccable as the person who took our order was in such high spirits and made us laugh even though it was 12am.

Oh my goodness where do I even begin! King donuts is hands down the best Donut shop in town! Their service, food, and of course their donuts are second to none. My wife and I were wanting to try them for a while and they did not disappoint. Their breakfast croissant was delectable and melted in my mouth! We also got half a dozen donuts and they were amazing! Lastly their frozen coffee was just right, not too bitter and not overly sweet. I?d recommend you check them out!

It?s time to hire some more staff if you cannot get through a drive thru of only two cars. Waited 10-15 minutes at the window for a person to take my order, same went for the person in front and behind me, then it took another 10 minutes to make my order, then i get home and i got not only the wrong sandwhich, but it wasn?t even cooked. They used to be really on top of it a couple months ago because i would frequently come here and everything was great! but i don?t know about now.

Love that I can pick up donuts anytime since they're open 24 hours ?? gotta get my donut fix ??

Late night solid spot for donuts, haven?t tried other menu options but will next time

I lovedddd the donuts.plus I?m super picky but these just hit different.They where soft and super delicious.

They do run out of fresh donuts sometimes. They will never give you something that isn't the best quality. Would be great to have healthier alternatives, though.

I made a late night stop in thru the Drive-thru around 1:30am so I don't know what he vibe was inside but the exterior was very clean. The lady that helped me was extremely polite and helpful. The donuts were easily the freshest and most flavorful I've had in probably years. Donut size and prices were good. I'll be back...you should check it out.

Excellent donuts that are a little more reasonably priced in comparison to it's competitors. Some creative options, I plan to get back soon for the ice cream donut. It's in an old sonic and well put together. Staff is friendly and seem happy to be there.

I've tried the bacon breakfast sandwich on a bagel with cream cheese and a ham and cheese jalapeno croissant sandwich. Both are SO good! It's my new favorite breakfast place. The croissant is so fresh. These sandwiches tasted homemade, unlike the chain coffee/donut place down the street. I paid $11 for 2 sandwiches which I think isn't bad for the quality. The customer service is A++. I can't wait to try other items on the menu.

I love King Donuts food the donuts are always fresh and soft and the breakfast sandwiches are so good! this location especially I like coming to this because when I come in the morning there's a girl that's always so sweet and makes the environment very friendly and when I come late at night there are there is an older couple that works together and is always so patient and kind and they always give me a free donut on top of my order. The older lady is also very sweet and makes great conversation, definitel

First time on this places order the breakfast sanchiz and one lunch sandwiches They were so good and we got some Donuts they are soft and tasty ,Good customer service Thank you ??

Got a regular white doughnut with sprinkles. The staff was nice. The doughnut itself wasn?t to sweet which was perfect since it balanced with the white icing (which was sweet)

Don?t understand what the point is to place an order the day before if they?re going to just pull it off the shelf when you pull up the whole point of having an order placed the day before is so it is ready when you show up. It?s 4:30 in the morning and now I have to wait for three dozen donuts 100 holes two boxes of coffee while the line builds now. Very, very very poor service no reason to place orders at this company. You?re not treated any better, real waste of time.

Went through the drive-through last week, very friendly woman working and the donuts were great. The twist one is like double the size of the one at LaMar?s and I believe had some pecans in it, but only a few. The milk tea was way too sweet for me. I added boba, which was a little soggy, but some pearls were fresher. Great pricing for the quality, pretty good variety, will have to try some other things, and I like the fact they?re open 24/7!

This place is amazing. Since my surgery I have been craving donuts like crazy. 10pm, 1am, 3am it's always the same DELICIOUS DONUTS to order from uber without any issues. Today uber had a promotion buy one get one free but it wouldn't let me pick. I called the store and spoke to a young lady told her the ones I liked and she agreed to make a mix from the ones I like. Honestly I didn't think she would BUT SHE DID. I recommend this place they are always ON POINT. Thank you King Donuts AZ you're the best. BOSA

This is my second sandwich tonight, the first one I had to return. Turkey toasted sandwich

Great donuts great price great service and open 24hrs. Awesome Icecream Donuts

Donuts were very fresh even at 5 PM. Could have used a little more filling in Vanilla and Boston Creme. Overall Fresh, airy and not as sweet as some other places.

Great donuts, my family has tried most of them by now and it's a nice treat for us to visit. The people who work there are very welcoming. I like the fritters and cake donuts, the breakfast sandwiches are good too. But my most favorite item there is the smoothies. Try the taro with passionfruit bubbles ?? it's life altering. The drive thru is open 24hr hours a day and they don't judge me at 2am when I roll through munching like a menace.

First time, and the donuts are incredible, fresh, melt in your mouth. I?m a donut nut and these are some of the best I?ve ever had. To top it off, the owners are very sweet and kind. Can?t wait to come back!

The people that work there are great the owners are so nice you have to love the ham and cheese croissant with a nice caramel coffee Don't forget to whipped cream. I am a Dutch Brothers guy but this is my new go to place for breakfast and a coffee for the same price as one coffee at Dutch Brothers I get breakfast with it.

The name is very fitting. Best donuts in town. I love the coconut cream. Don't stop there, the sandwiches and drinks are awesome as well. The popping bobas added to any of the smoothies drink is my fav. I've always used the drive thru, it's fast, super friendly and convenient.

I used to always go to one of their competitors, cuz I thought they had the best donuts in Phoenix. After my first experience with King Donuts I won't go anywhere else. Their donuts are so much better than everybody else's, the competitors are not even in the same league. They're service is fast, they're very polite, they're always pleasant.

I went in for breakfast one morning and what I got was awesome. I got a break croissant with eggs n bacon, so good. And I tried an apple filled doughnut, also so good. Doughnut was light and soft and great flavor. I hope all their doughnuts are that good because for My first time there, it was great and I will return often.

Don?t understand where all the high reviews came from. The counter lady was very polite but the two donuts I ordered at 9 am tasted as if they were made yesterday. 2 donuts and a coffee cost over $8 really. Just providing my honest feedback.

Just left at 630. Brought my daughter in for a kid week treat. The employees were super friendly and seemed genuinely excited we were there. Lots of options late in the day when normal donut shops are closed. Prices are affordable. Donuts are soft and pillowy. We will be back!

Did the drive thru for the first time, service was nice, smiles and cheerful attitude is a plus with me, could have individually wrapped each donut for a better presentation, the donuts were not as fresh as I would have liked but nevertheless still had good flavor, not to sweet. Just because they are sweet doesn't mean that they are good.

Took kind of a long time to get through drive through. Ordered half dozen doughnuts and half were the wrong ones and forgot to make the drink. Doughnuts were not very good. Yet to find any good donuts in AZ.

Support your local businesses! Donuts were fresh and we really enjoyed them. Be mindful if you pick a fancy donut in that 1/2 dozen grouping you're paying an upcharge. Didn't notice that based on their website. Their breakfast sandwiches are served all day and are legit!

I ABOLUTLEY LOVE THIS OWNER AND I HAVE NEVER TASTED MY FAVORITE DONUT LIKE THIS!! I LOVE pink sprinkled and i have NEVER HAD IT TASTE SO FRESH AND AMAZING!! THIS PLACE IS AWESOME!! Needs to get more lighting outside and a brighter paint job to stand out! I only say this because the deserve to be noticed!!! The staff is kind and welcoming . Nowadays its not normal. Im happy to find a place family owned and that loves what they do

I literally cannot get enough of the roast beef Sandwich and coconut cream donuts! So delicious. Anna and David are so friendly Anna even remembered I dont like pickles on my Sandwich, even though I forgot to customize my order! Great favorite new place !

I came thru the drive thru pretty late at night, actually surprised that they were open, and the older couple working nights there are just so sweet. And when I got home I realized there were 13 donuts instead of 12. ?? Thank you so much! It's the little things, right? I highly recommend everyone stop in here at least once!

The owner and then what I believe is his daughter, are some of the nicest people to be served by! We were there pretty late last night on a photo project, and honestly have been the best donuts hands-down that I?ve had yet so far being in Arizona, they were fluffy and soft and their fruit tea is definitely a must there too! We got the mango tea with boba and passionfruit tea and it was so good! In the croissant sandwiches mouthwatering! Definitely hit the spot for a midnight grub! Me and my best friend defi

Absolutely amazing! The donuts taste light and airy like Krispy Kreme. The donut ice cream sandwiches are to die for! The selection is top notch with some creative original options. The prices are unbelievable. Affordable even if you're tight on cash like me. I was to get 2 donut ice cream sandwiches, a half dozen donuts and 12 donuts holes for 26 bucks. This place is better than dunkin or Lamars or rainbow. A MUST try. The owners are a charming elderly Asian couple that are so adorable and friendly very sw

I heard about this place from driving for uber eats. I had to try it for myself. They have all the traditional donuts coffee, teas, blended not blended... for having a large menu it's still quite simple to choose. The staff was nice, we didn't wait very long, and the donuts are soooo good. Rivals Lemars and Bosa for sure. If you get the coffee don't expect Dunkin or Starbucks, but it is nostalgic and strong. Like diner coffee. I love it.

Just came here and tried the donuts for the first time at 6 PM, got a lemon filled, a raspberry filled and a buttermilk and they were all three huge and fresh and delicious! I definitely recommend and this place is 24 hours which is very uncommon and awesome for a donut shop. Krispy Kreme closes at 4pm now, lame!

Tried this place for the first time and was very impressed! The donuts all were so fresh and absolutely perfect. It blows all the chain donut spots out of the water as these are a much higher caliber of quality you can usually only find at mom n pop shops.

Spent time picking out different types of donuts for my donuts and when I got home, opened my box to see that they just put whatever they want in there. Apple fritter was great but the rest of the regular that they put in the box is mediocre. Next time, I will check before driving off.

I ABSOLUTELY love king doughnuts. Their Carmel iced coffee is delicious! And the customer service is beyond amazing!

Drive through only late at night. Donuts were fresh and tasty, and the ice coffee was way better than Starbucks.

Great place for donuts. I love the bear claws and apple turnovers. The ladies are very friendly.

They close very early so it's drive thru only. Their drive thru menu isn't up to date. When I got to the window to pay and saw more options, instead of offering to sell them to me she suggested I drive back around and order at the speaker again. Donuts were so so.

I love their Thai tea, ice cream doughnuts, and breakfast sandwiches are fire! Staff is so nice ??

Delicious and fresh and they have each kind of donut posted outside on drive thru board so you know what your ordering

Got their dragon fruit lemonade and a raspberry jelly donut!! Seriously best mix of flavors. The drink was SOO tasty and refreshing, donut is delicious. 100% Coming back again!!

I'll stick to the Bosa and Lamar's in the area. Donuts were cloyingly sweet, coffee was absolute dumpster water. I had 2 other people try the coffee and they both independently spit it out.

Excellent doughnuts! My fave has always been Randy?s when traveling but they aren?t in AZ. I?m so happy I now have King to look forward too.

Great donuts including the apple fritter!!

The staff was friendly and the prices were good! The doughnuts are amazing and really fresh! Even on the 2nd day.

Such nice people who work here! Love the quality of the donuts, business is clean and organized and I am so happy they are open 24 hours! I will only be coming here for now on!

They have great donuts but their drinks are to die for in comparison to Bosa I would give them a try I will definitely be going back.

Honestly best place they always give you little freebees when you order something i absolutely am obsessed with their fruit tea they do it best and their donuts are absolutely heaven

Their iced coffee wasn't great, it tasted like cheap ground coffee. Would rather go somewhere else for that. Their croissant breakfast wasn't too bad tho

The donuts are very fresh and the place is very clean. The cashier was really kind and we will definitely be going back sometime soon.

The best chcolate old fashioned, always taste so fresh, and the service is always so pleasant, also do yourself a favor and try the vanilla cream donut ??????
