Sylmar Donuts Ice Cream

Reviews Summary

Consensus: Overwhelmingly positive reviews highlight exceptional donuts, often called the best in the valley, with consistent praise for freshness, flavor (especially Thai iced tea and boba), and friendly service from the kind owners. Many loyal customers return for years, noting the welcoming atmosphere and quick service. A few mention minor issues like pricing or cleanliness, but most emphasize the unbeatable quality and family-owned charm. The rare lower ratings cite flies or pricing concerns, but these are vastly outnumbered by glowing recommendations for both food and service.

Customer Reviews

Love this shop. Classic valley donuts. Not greasy, sweet of course but not too sweet. I adore the plain cakes especially. The owners are very kind people with great energy. They give me motivation to get up really early & pick up a dozen for the crew at work, cuz man they sell out fast. The mark of a good product ????

I love coming for my coffee and their ham&cheese croissant ??.

I've been coming to this donut shop since I was in middle school. I'm 23 now, and the value of this place has never depreciated. I've been to all kinds of other donut shops and this one makes there food and drinks, delicious. They do not use cheap products. I love my breakfast sandwiches, and a lot of other shops make them with square cheese, and yuckk. They make it with real CHEESE. There egg is made hot nd fresh. The family that own this business are absolutely kind hearted people. Customer service is eve

I must start off by saying I am not a fan of donuts but even as a child they never really interested me much but this place has changed that! The food here is spectacular, from donuts to sandwiches to s little mini convenient store all I the same location. This family owned stop is located across a Starbucks and it is by far a better choice for coffee and a treat! This is my new spot for soft, fluffy and sweetened delights. I hope you like this review and hope this helps.

I've been a customer since I was in middle school. It's been about 12 years since then and I still come here from Pasadena. The service is always fast, friendly, and efficient. The owners are wonderful people and their quality of food is perfect. Never stail nor burned. Always fresh and full of goodness inside !!! My number one donut shop

Fantastic old-fashioned donuts and delicious apple fritters. Folks who live around this place are lucky! We used to have a great mom and pop donut shop near our house, but thanks to crooked politicians and greedy developers, it's now luxury apartments. The old-fashioned donuts are reason enough to come to this place, but everything else is extremely good and the owners are very friendly.

I would rate this place better but out of the few times I've been in here, there were flies inside where the donuts are. Flying around and landing on everything. That's disgusting

Guy behind the counter sold me regular price of donuts for the donut holes. He tried to make it up by giving me one extra regular sized donut.

Donut is good, cookies and cream shake is bomb haven't tried their other drinks yet but definitely will try they have so many different flavors. Owners are friendly and generous.

Best donuts in the valley by far ??!! Been a customer since my Middle School days. Love the slushies as well. Owners are really nice people. Always remember who I am. Highly reccommended.

I just moved to Sylmar from North Hollywood I?m a donut lover, and Sylmar donuts are far better than the Krispy kream donuts I bought In Burbank! I?ll only allow myself donuts once a month, and I always go to Sylmar Donuts to get my ?fix?....they are even good the next day!

This is my favorite donut shop hands down. They have the best Thai iced tea I've ever had.

So I went and one of the employees was trying hard to distract me so I didn't see the other guy trying to take 3 flies out of where the donuts are. So I just got a boba and it was cool until I saw them put the boba it the microwave. CHUNKY BOBA IS GROSS.

Donut shop with super cute and people that work that were very nice and awesome 5 stars!!!

There really good a bit on the expensive side but good service came in and quick and easy and I wish they can explain what they have but all in all good stuff here they do accept Apple Pay but 50? card charge
