Customer Reviews

My go-to local donut shop because they have the tastiest donuts in town! ?? They have reasonable prices and often will get busy. It is best to stop by earlier in the morning to have the most donut selection to pick from ?????? Recommended donuts: Chocolate/ Crunch twists, cream filled/ glazed, cinnamon rolls, old-fashioned & apple fritters ??

Krinkle donuts are the best donuts in town, but their staffing changed. It used to be so friendly, people would sit in there and play games/drink coffee but I don't see that anymore. The staff isn't great now. I went in and after beeing greeted with a "good morning" I said "good morning" and asked for a "dozen donuts, you pick." The attendant told me to wait a minute and continued stacking boxes. He asked me which donuts I wanted and I asked him to pick. For the past year a dozen donuts were $17; their menu

Simply enjoy this place. I believe it is one or the only one in yuba city that makes the bat donuts. There service is always welcoming. Donuts always fresh and sometimes sold out because that's how good they are!

Found a long dark hair in my donut. No it is not my hair!!! It was under the frosting ??????

The donuts are the best here! They're always fresh and so delicious! My family loves coming here, especially with the variety they have to offer.

Best donuts in town! Just tried Krinkle Doughnut for the first time and I'm absolutely impressed. The donuts are perfectly glazed and incredibly fresh - seriously, do yourself a favor and grab a dozen, you won't regret it!

We got an apple fritter, maple bar, chocolate with sprinkles and a pink one. They were all delicious and the apple fritter was nice and warm. Had a good amount of tables to sit down and drink our coffee and eat our doughnuts. Will definitely be coming back.

Best donuts in Yuba City! Family run and they have that extra level of service that makes it exceptional. The donuts are seriously so delicious and they have a ton of options!

Best Doughnuts in Northern California Great selection and service. If you don't go you'll never know what a true excellent pastries are in our own backyard

This is my go to spot for donuts ?? ?? It gets pretty busy on the weekend because their donuts are delicious. It would be cool to see some biscoff cookie donuts ..hint hint..This mom and pop shop is way better than dunkin ! Just saying

Pretty good donut shop. The best we have around here. Not the best I ever had but not bad. Prices are fair.

Wow! Happy to find this great shop (at the recommendation of the folks at Camping World) with incredible doughnuts and good coffee. The custard filled maple glazed was sublime, and the apple fritter was massive and delicious. The gentleman at the counter was briskly efficient and kind. Great place!

Great family friendly local business. They are so good they run out but that?s expected for the best donut place in town.

Been coming here since I was a little girl. Perfect every time and always so friendly!

Fantastic Fritters! Excellent HUGE delicious fresh apple fritters. Crispy crunchy on the outside and soft and delicious inside. Great low price! I?ve traveled all over the north west, and been eating apple fritters for over 50 years. Apple fritters are three dollars in Portland, these are only two dollars and they?re much larger, and better! If you?re anywhere near, be sure to go to this great local business. Yuba City is lucky to have you. Bonus: Krinkle Khickens- Driving through from Oregon, this is ou

My childhood favorite donut shop in the world! The family that owns it is so nice and always generous about giving free donut holes to the kids. A great local business to support. The best donuts in town, too!

Love the donuts . They family that runs this place are great and they make a great product too. Best place in YC

The donuts are freshly made each day, and they are usually gone by the afternoon. We got there after lunch the other day and they were already closed because they had sold out all the donuts. I have been craving for Apple Fritter for years because they don't have it in Asia, and when I bit into one today, I was in sweet heaven. It was crispy on the outside and soft and moist on the inside. It was a huge size of Apple Fritter. Oh, so delicious.

Absolutely the perfect mix of sweetness and soft, cotton candy like fried dough. There's a reason why they sell out early.

New to town and wanted to get donuts went to 2 places and Krinkle Doughnut had a better selection. Awesome customer service from staff. Great donuts too!!!??????

I often go and get donuts. Normally, I?m very well assisted they have great customer service The donuts taste great. However, today, June 7, 2024 is the last day of school for my kids. I had to have my mom take my kids to school for me So I asked her to pick up some donuts for my kids class for the last day of school. I?m on speaker because my families never been there so they?re not sure what to ask for so I?m listening to everything. My kids a little timid so he has a hard time speaking up and my mom firs

Great little donut shop! They have a big selection and seems to be family owned. I'm glad I stumbled across this place while exploring.

This is the best shop for donuts, so good, quick service and so friendly!

The grandkids love their donuts. I think they're one of the best donuts shops around. Sorry for the atmosphere score. After all, it's a donuts shop. Don't change a thing.

Krinkle Donut ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? was Excellent as always. Three people there to serve you. The service is and always will be fast swift with friendly staff smiling and saying welcome in we will be right with you. Thank you for being here. I will be back again.

Big family, great donuts I?ve been gone here since I was in a kid. You probably bought donuts here probably 5000 times donuts here and everyone were good. Really good people.

Best donuts in town! Even at 10 am on a Sunday they still had a great selection to choose from.

These are cool donuts but very light on TLC seasoning. went in at about 8:30 and my donut holes tasted like they were actually made the day before. I got a maple donut although I never got the full significants of it because when I open my bag half of the maple on the donut was stuck to the bag. The Glazed donuts are some of the best I've ever had. The sugar donut is okay. As well as the crumble twist not living up to the looks as it became uninspiring. Pricing could be better for what you get.

Fresh doughnuts every day, have the classics to new kinds. They have jelly filled and cake. They have fritters, bear claws, and cinnamon roll doughnuts. Just thinking about it gets my mouth watering. Yeah it?s good. Assorted dozen (12), it?ll be about $17.50?. Pretty good considering.

Definitely enjoyable doughnuts and good coffee. The building is also clean and nice to be in ??

Best doughnuts in the area. Always fresh and fluffy and delicious. My wife loves their cake doughnuts. The only problem is that sometimes they run out of variety in later times of the day and you have to get early in busy holidays or occasions. I went on Valentine?s Day and they were out of almost everything by 10 AM. Shows how great they are though.

Just went here for the first time! They have really good donuts here! I got a glazed donut with fresh strawberries and cream inside of it. Words cannot even describe it! It was so light and amazing! Their blueberry donut was very tasty too. It was light and fresh too! Will be coming back! It was worth the drive!!??????

Wow so good. Their crumb donut has a great unique crumb topping. All super fresh at 430 am. They were even a little warm. This donut shop stands out among the rest.

Amazing doughnuts ?? the owners are always nice and friendly. Food is priced well. Definitely try them out, when in today with the intent of buying 3 came out with 1/2 a dozen. I love this place!!

Great donuts and very great customer service

This doughy, cinnamon sugar donut is a MUST have whenever I visit!

Great little mom and pop donut shop. I would have to say that this is the best place in town. They tend to sell out fast, especially on Fridays. I love to get the chocolate bar or cinnamon rolls. I have tried all the donuts from here and I am never disappointed with any of them.

Best classic donuts and modern additions. Good selection and still left over later in the day which is unheard of for most donut shops or bakeries. Can't eat just 1, must always have 2! Not Krispy expensive, but worth it.

Best donuts in yuba city! So good! Huge and delicious apple fritters (my fav). Great selection of fresh donuts overall. As with all donut shops the earlier you get there the better the selection, but even in the late morning you can still pick up a nice little selection.

Pros: delicious, fresh tasting, decent prices. Cons: not very clean looking place but maybe because it's old, I don't know. Customer service is lacking, no "welcome", no smiles, no conversation, lucky to get a "thank you", very sad vibe in there. I'd only go back when I'm REALLY REALLY craving fresh donuts because the 2 other local shops I know of are bad.

The softest, most pillowy, light, delicious donuts I may have ever had. I knew I was in for a treat when I walked in at 8:00 and they were already sold out of a few kinds! I happened to come in just as they made a fresh batch of sugar donuts. The donut was warm, pillowy, perfectly sweet. But even the donuts from the case were fresh and soft. The staff was so sweet. Thank you Krinkle! I will be back :)

Ordered an apple fritter and Boston cr?me donut around 11:30am. Both were excellent. The apple fritter was fresh, large, and had a great flavor. Same could be said for the Boston cr?me donut, with a small twist. It was less of a cream filled donut but more of a cream sandwich, which helped provide a more even distribution of cream and more pleasant donut experience. Overall, this was a great spot to stop for breakfast. Prices are reasonable too at $1.50 or so per donut with taxes.

One of the two best donut places! Of course they were out of glazed but I arrived well after noon so was expected. Great donuts were still available. They're donuts are delicious!

Absolutely wonderful doughnut. Soft and yeasty. Delicious. Great old school atmosphere and super kind employees.

They have donuts filled with custard' lemon, strawberrie and raspberry. But my favorite is the whipped cream filled. Oh my my, not sweet at all. One bite has you going back for more. Owner makes her own whip cream and she does a great job. Great and fast service.

These are the best the tastiest doughnuts in Northern California Always enjoy them with my morning coffee friendly service and at a great price

I bought a dozen donuts (for a very good price, I might add) and they set off my passenger seat belt warning. Thats how heavy they were! Fantastic place, nice people and a really, really good donut.

My favorite donut shop, nothing fancy, but the donuts are so fresh & heavenly!

Perhaps the best donuts in town. The selection is a little lacking. However, they are tasty. The lady behind the counter uses tongs and doesn't touch your food with her hands. Prices are reasonable.

This place crushes me everytime. They every once in a blue moon will have CHOCOLATE CAKE donuts. My family goes super early and there's zero, they tell us we make them in the late morning. I go in the late morning and still nothing! What gives?? I'll just go to Blue Pantry from now on as they always have my favorite waiting.

I love donuts. It's a problem I know but it is my cross to bear. So I try them all, at every new or old store I run across. Krinkle is home, the one I always return to. Keep making really great donuts please!

This place is such a treat. The donuts are fresh and delicious, the owners are nice, and the prices are great. My favorite early morning guilty pleasure

Starting in 1996 I had to drive to Woodland, CA, from Oroville, CA once a month for business. I would always stop in Yuba City at Krinkle Doughnuts for coffee and of course one (or 2) of their delicious donuts. I do not have to make that drive anymore, but if I'm in Yuba City you can find me stopping in for a bear claw. Just drive slow for the wild chickens in parking lot.

Always worth the trip. The people who run the place are wonderul, and sometimes the lady behind the counter will give donut holes for free with orders. The fritters and bear claws (with and without nuts) are my favorite, but Ive yet to have anything bad from them.

This is my go-to place for donuts and showing up early is always best on weekends because the line gets long at like 9am. The donuts are amazing!! ????

My first time being here this morning standing in line behind a family the cashier left the register to help a man with his food and coffee literally rining him up right in front of me totally just ignored me. Took my business elsewhere never going back. Worst customer service ever.

I love these doughnuts! My son and I always come and get a dozen of these amazing things to take home everyone time we are going through Yuba City! The crumb ave glazed doughnuts are my favorites and my son loves their chocolate cake doughnuts with sprinkles.

Best donuts I have ever had, and we travel America. But they are always out of certain donuts.

I have been going here for many, many years. Most definitely the best donuts in our area. The owners are so nice and friendly. Just love this place

The best donuts in town. Admittedly, I have not been to every donut shop, but this place has to be in the top 3 or better. I have now discovered a donut is not just as good as any other donut. These donuts win!

This place has amazingly good donuts with so much to choose from. The staff is awesome too. Really nice.

I Love Krinkle Donuts. It's a little family owned business in the Raleys Parking Lot. The Son works everyday and is always so welcoming! They have donuts that are fresher than Winco & Walmart!

Always awesome staff, and best donuts in town by far!!!! Also just want to add, they are indeed open 7 days a week. So don't listen to googles hours just give them a call!!!! You won't be disappointed!!!

Great donuts and great prices

My Customers enjoyment display was such exceptional and delicious. Purchased 5 dozen for my special event.

Best donuts in northern California! I am never disappointed when I get their donuts. The staff is super friendly and generous, they always throw something extra in the box.

Best donuts around! Whenever I get a box for work, I always make the effort to come here!

Great donuts, really fresh. Good prices. Needs updating. Cable news is annoying, noisey. Hang out for older men who usually talk very loud. Take the delicious donuts home with you.

Fresh made doughnuts Variety All original types reasonably priced

Best donuts in yuba city by a lot. Highly recommended!!!

Best donuts in town! I love that they have seasonal sprinkles for their cake donuts. ??

Excellent doughnuts. Nice and fresh daily. Not dry, but lots of frosting especially on the small and big crumbs. Yummy??

This place is awesome. The donut holes melt in your mouth! The people here are very nice. And prices are fair.

My favorite place to get doughnuts in the entire country. I have never had doughnuts that were consistently delicious. I wish Maryland, where I live, had doughnuts this good.

This is actually the ONLY doughnut shop... in the world. Literally, I've had supposedly 'amazing' doughnuts everywhere.. Portland, Chicago, New York.. nope. They've got nothing on Krinkle!! Always fresh, always soft, always amazing!

Great place! I have gotten donuts here a few times. Owner Kim is very nice and so is her son.

Best doughnuts in town , but service. The owner is a sweet lady who always smiles and give me extra doughnut holes for my son , love her

Krinkle Donuts has the best Donuts not just in town, but in the whole area... the donuts are all great but I especially like the apple fritters and everything else there LOL

I love it here donuts are great and have a great selection. I go here often!

Best doughnuts in YC. They sometimes sell out. But if you are lucky enough to get them warm, it's a delightful experience.

The best donuts ever! Sooo fluffy and delicious. The coconut ones are amazing!

Absolutely DELICIOUS donuts. Very fresh and soft, perfect every single time. Absolutely 10/10 would recommend!

If I come in once a year they are the same sweet people with the best freshest donuts around. Go early to get your favorite.

Not bad donuts and not a horrible price, but there are better donut shops in town.

I have been going to Krinkles since I was a little kid the best donuts pretty much anywhere in any town the prices are good really best donut shop around

The best donuts in town! They always have an amazing selection to choose from and they are always very friendly.
