SUPER friendly and kind staff. Very generous! And the fresh squeezed lemonade and ice cream hit the spot for sure!
Amazing dessert treats the whole family can enjoy. Hot handmade doughnuts and they serve Gunthers ice cream and freezes! Also love that they are open late on most weekends and I can order through Grubhub when I don't want to leave the house.
We had such a great time eating all of the things from this spot! The knotty sundae (with the doughnuts and ice cream) was delicious, and the freeze was great! The man there was so kind and friendly, and for all of the food that we got, we thought it was a steal! I think if there were more pictures of the food displayed, people would get to see how cool some of the products come out. We were so happy with everything. Definitely worth the trip to old sac for this!
Great coffee prices...just be aware, I stopped in at 11:20 and they hadn't started making donuts yet. Seems like something that should have been started before they opened. Considering it's a donut shop.
Tiny mini donuts that break apart before eating. On the wooden sidewalk in Old Sacramento. Ice cream and homemade lemonade looks good.
Apparently this business took over for Danny?s minis donuts, which is what I brought my family for but we tried it out. The owner gave us a long speech and wanted me to try his handmade donuts so I did. It was cold and greasy. The mint milkshake we ordered was thin, it was basically chocolate milk. Only thing good was the mini donuts because those are actually made fresh to order. I also couldn?t help but notice all the flies buzzing around in there. Danny will be missed.
I came here a few weekends ago, it looked nice and was pretty busy so I figured it was going to be good. However there was a lady who I assumed works there and she had her dog in the store, running around and leaving hair everywhere, it kinda turned me off from the food but I still waited anyway. But the line was pretty long and this lady kept talking so much to every customer as they got up to the front, not every single customer needs to hear the story of your shop, it just made the wait so much longer an
I never eat a (normal) doughnut. I tried these Mad Hatter ones once when it was a food truck at a festival and they are really amazing. Melt on your tongue. I eat them un-glazed though because I try to stay away from sugar. Every time I come through Sacramento I make the detour and stop by this shop now.
This is probably the best donut I've ever had. Definitely get the full size vs the minis as they are different formulas. The owner makes them fresh so you get them nice and warm. They are crispy on the outside and chewy and airy on the inside. 100% recommend!
Didn't hae what I wanted and only make donuts on the weekend...the cinnamon knots were delicious.
Super awesome place! Donuts were really crispy and sweet, nothing like it in Sacramento. Make sure to get the donuts hot, they're amazing. My favorite were the knots. They got Danny's blessing to setup so make sure to check them out!
New place in old town that serves Gunther?s ice cream, got the Taro and it was pretty good!
You have NEVER eaten a doughnut this good before. It's simple, but it doesn't taste like it. It practically melts in your mouth. ?? I have seen this crew at events around the area in a food cart, but now I know EXACTLY where I can find my fix! I usually never pass up Gunthers ice cream when it's on the menu, but the doughnuts are the way to go! My favorite is the cinnamon sugar and I see they have more options and ideas coming in! So excited to find this place while I was just strolling through! Recomend 15
I?ve had better donuts at Krispy Creme, only thing good here is that they have Gunther?s ice cream. But the ice cream cone I got was already melting.
I was disappointed to find that the mini donuts I ordered were more like thin strips of fried dough. Unfortunately, due to their appearance, I was unable to enjoy them.
These doughnuts are beyond amazing. They are the best doughnuts I have ever had in my life. Thank you Mad Hatter Doughnuts for an amazing product. All the best.
Best donuts I?ve had, and freshly made and fried by the owner! Reminds me a bit of beignets. Get the actual yeasted donut, not the mini whatevers
Anytime we are in Old Sacramento we make it a point to drop by Mad Hatter Doughnuts and spoil ourselves with an order of their warm mini Doughnuts ?? Don't miss out!
Best doughnuts I've ever had. It melts in your mouth. People are nice also!
We got donuts and ice cream, both were tasty. The owner is very personable and we were treated well!
Fun little shop with good mini donuts
Amazing knots with glaze. Omga the best ??
Best doughnuts I?ve ever had definitely addicted now.. and if your a krunchy person definitely try the knots
I don't care if you are stuffed to capacity and might vomit if you eat another bite. You are missing a magical experience if you don't try these donuts.
This place is the spot. Pure love and attention to detail - not only to the doughnuts but the coffee too.
New Owner new menu ??
Best Doughnuts in California!
Asked about things on the menu and the employer couldn?t tell us what it was. Big menu up in the window doesn?t indicate that some items aren?t available during the week. ?Mini? doughnuts are inconsistent in size.
(Translated by Google) The best donuts and ice cream in Sacramento! Very friendly staff! Thanks for the good mood! I recommend! (Original) ??????????? ??????? ?? ???????? ? ??????????! ???? ????????? ????????! ????? ?? ?????? ???????! ??????????!
