Customer Reviews

I haven't been here in almost 2 months but I gotta tell y'all this is the best donut place I have been to. Kicks name brand donuts to the floor! Before I moved I dropped by every morning for their breakfast sandwiches ham bacon egg and cheese or just the egg and cheese if I wasn't feeling meat I spent way too much money but everything was sooo good!!!

This place has an amazing vibe. I get donuts here for my significant other or for my job. I got a dozen here and I was feeling very tired. Sophe noticed that I was feeling tired and she told me to go get a cup of coffee free. She had an amazing selection and I felt at home here in this little donut shop. Sophe is a gem in this community for sharing her gifts and positively infectious energy with others. I will be returning whenever I'm there. Thank you for being amazing.

Literally my daughter's favorite spot for a morning treat. Not only are the donuts and ham and cheese croissants delicious, The owner is amazing. The staff are super friendly and if you can't decide they will give you recommendations.

Omg the croissants is so soft and the eggs and ham and mayo makes perfect harmony! My life has been missing out on these super yummy croissants! Wish I live next door! Breakfast everyday! Had to take a close shot to show the perfect balance. ??????????????????

I love the women that run this place I'm not sure if the big guy still works there but they are all the sweetest people, the food is awesome and you should try their frappes with it.

Delicious donuts and great customer service is an amazing combination. Thank you so much for your hospitality.

My favorite spot to go. Vanessa is the best, ask about the cold teas and warm teas. Vanessa always takes good care of me. I went four days ago not being able to really talk because of a bad cold, she immediately made me a remedy right on the spot and hooked me up with a tea, i went staright for 3 days with her and my voice came back, my throat wasn't hurting anymore. Vanessa is amazing and a good person with a good heart. I have even been there to witness her giving food to a homeless man that came in drun

I think for a ma and pa shop, this place is just ok. The pricing is pretty fair but the donuts are kinda mid. Also the donuts themselves looked more like a function over form kind of food. The donuts didn't really look that appetizing but it is what it is for their price.

Donuts glaze was off (wet look) when I got home. I tasted the glazed, and it tasted like pan butter flavor oil spray. I threw all the donuts away because it tasted like fake butter flavor (chemical). Waste of money and time...

Best donuts ever!! Service is best around!! Coffee is so yummy!! Blueberry fritters to die for!! All so yummy and store is very clean and prices are awesome

The best Donuts , very tasty!!! Im coming here for now on. Thank you??

Caramel frappachino super bomb ! ???

We came in to grab some coffee before early Sunday mass... I couldn't resist getting a donut, even though we were only going for coffee. I am pretty basic and love just regular glazed. The donuts were warm at 7a... and as we were driving to church, eating my donut... "this is SO good" - me to husband... *husband looks over, and replies* - "ARE YOU CRYING!?"... "yes, bc i'll never get to have this again" (we're from out of town and not likely to return to the area... also we didn't discover this place until

best hot chocolate. and the donuts are heavenly.

It was pleasant to see the grandson helping. A truly family business.

Vanessa is very sweet and so is her daughter. I always get the same thing everytime i go in there which is a blueberry banana smoothie with boba. (Extra boba) very delicious

Sooooo delicious and super friendly love everything about this place...... awesome all around

All the donuts i tried were good. my favorite is the glazed buttermilk bar.

Customer service needs improvement. Could be more accommodating to requests and messed up our order.

Vanessa Owner is always welcoming. The variety of Doughnuts are always Fresh and delicious, especially the Tiger Tails my favorite. Go in, see and taste for yourselves. You'll be back for more.

Great place for that nice sugar rush. Breakfast sandwiches are wonderful and a good value too. Sophie is a gem, asked me if I've been in before and since it was my first time she suggested different donuts to try and they were all wonderful. Thank you!

Best breakfast sandwiches! We are fairly new to the West Covina area, but this is our favorite donuts place within the area. They are friendly everytime I go. We can also order ahead of time and they will keep it warm for you.

One of the best donut shops in town. Everything is always fresh and coffee is always hot. That's exactly what you want in a donut shop!

Customers is what makes your business, I think the owner needs to remember that. My husband and I traveled ways to get here because of the good reviews, we wanted a good donut and coffee. We asked how fresh is the coffee, because I wanted a good fresh cup of coffee. She laughed at us and rolled her eyes like it was a very stupid question. Poured out the old coffee and put it into the new pot and said "see look it's fresh now." I looked at my husband we walked out. remember customers is what makes your busi

We love Sophe's donuts the breakfast sandwiches are freshly made and all donuts are deliciously fresh you can taste at first bite highly recommend this donuts and fresh coffee. Thank you Vanessa making everything fresh daily

I live down the street from here and starbucks and i would spend my money here over starbucks any day. Her ice coffee is addicting and her donuts are amazing. I love the fact that i actually see the business owner and i know that the money i put into here is actually going to an amazing person. LOVE THIS PLACE!!!!!!!

Went online to locate a place that can create lettering doughnuts for a birthday. I found Sophie's Donuts and did a preorder for Saturday 8/22, when i arrived she did not show me the letters, but when i saw her get the small box to place them inside my heart SANK! She taped them and handed them to me. I arrived at the party and i could not be more embarrassed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You be the judge on the pics. THIS IS NOT WORTH $25!!!!!! Is she would have shown them to me i would have TOTALLY REFUSED them, not pay

I love this place first time coming and these donuts are amazing this need to be a 5 star great customer service me and my family will always come here most definitely would recommend you all trying this donut shop I love it.

I?ve visited this donut shop many times and I always end up leaving with a smile. :) the staff is very friendly and giving. The food is made with good ingredients, they show in the flavor. This spot is a must visit! ??

The donuts looked really good overall but when I looked in the back it looked very dirty and old. The was an old lady sleeping in a corner on the floor. I lost my appetite and didn't eat any of the donuts I bought, I gave them to my family lol.

I'm still new to the area but this place has the best donuts I've ever had.

First time getting donuts from Sophe's, and it was wonderful. Not only wet the donuts fantastic, but Sophe gave me two extras in the dozen! Yum!
