Best donuts in Modesto, new ownership same goodness with some bonus options!!! See photo! Yyyuuuuuummmmm

Awesome donut shop! Reasonable prices and great selection -One of the only shops in town that makes bearclaws

Absolutely love this place, not a real big fan of glazed donuts but there?s an ingredient they add makes it taste different must try highly recommended

Best donuts in town. I don't buy the hype of the other competition. This place is the real deal for flavorful and tasty donuts!

Ordered dozens of assorted donuts ahead of time for the book club meeting and they were ready at the time specified. They even included some that were heart-shaped! ??

This place has theeeee #1 of any donut I?ve ever had in my life!!!! I have moved away from Modesto now but I refer this wonder place to anyone I know! Absolutely amazing! They are open 24/7!!!! No joke. Always available always fabulous!! I love you we donuts!! -callie

Definitely one of the best in town come show them some love. My favorite after midnight spots ????

I thought I knew where to get the best donuts in town, but then we moved away from Mister T's at Standiford to the Scenic area and it turns out that there is *another* 24 hour donut shop in Modesto. They are both awesome, but We Donuts is even more awesome! The best part is I live right down the street from them. Their chocolate frosting actually tastes chocolatey instead of just like regular sugar frosting that's been colored brown.

$17.50 for 2-Croisants, Ham breakfast sandwich and a Medium coffee. No...Wait!! $14 but the other clerk took the sandwich out of my bag and gave it to someone else after it was heated. So you put another in my bag, but you didnt heat it. Cold breakfast sandwich, SUCKS!! Your prices, SUCKS and your Who's on First Customer Service needs some help. Disappointing, NO Value and your clerk loosing her cool after you Overcharged, Didnt put what I ordered in my bag and then gave it to me COLD!! I should have j

Glad the new owners continued to serve the same great taste and selection of doughnuts. They added new items to their menu. I haven?t tried the new items yet, but they look and sound good. The only thing that I do notice is the amount of grammar and spelling mistakes on their menus and handwritten/printed signs. I am surprised the formal menu was made with errors since it appears that it was made by an outside company. For example, venilla instead of vanilla and Vienamese instead of Vietnamese to name a few

We Donut is very busy. Donuts are delicious and fresh. I had the breakfast sandwich croissant and definitely will have it again. The service was friendly.

These donuts are some of the best and freshest tasting donuts I've ever had! They are addicting and they lady behind the counter is always super nice.

I am so happy that We Donuts has joined Door Dash. It's a well-kept secret that We Donuts has the VERY BEST donuts in town! (MUCH better than Dunkin Donuts) When my daughter visits from South Dakota, a stop at We Donuts is a must do!

The doughnuts are so good, their jalape?o, ham and cheese croissants are so delicious

I enjoy their massive apple fritters. They're not served as warm as I'd like but a few minutes in the air fryer and they're fantastic.

Little family owned business.. large selection of donuts. And there good.

This is the quintessential donut shop experience and that makes sense based on how this place is named. Open 24/7 too which adds to its atmosphere. If you haven't experienced this place yet, you are missing out. You might be in and out in under 5 minutes but the experience will last you a lifetime. You will never forget this place. Also, the blueberry cake donut was delicious!

We's and Mr. T's make some of the absolute best donuts. I was lucky to have grown up on We's and compare all other donuts to them.

Well, we don?t go to get donuts there because of the atmosphere. It?s a very small older, donut shop, but the donuts are the best in town!! Always fresh! The chocolate that they use over the donuts is just delicious. It?s not dark it?s not milk chocolate it?s a perfect combination! I live clear across town from We?s donuts closer to it?s competitor however, we always go to We Donuts!!

Seriously the best donuts in Modesto! Always fresh, light and airy! You can't go wrong. Definitely a must try!!!!

Good tasting Dough nuts.. Great friendly Staff

I'm a new customer. My co workers have been bringing I'm these donuts and now my family also loves them! The people here are so nice & kind. THE DONUTS ARE FRESH!

I wanted my children to have donuts on the 1st day of school and I wanted them to be there in the morning weez is open 24 hours so I ended up there at about 3 AM The donuts were fresh and there was no line to stand in totally worth it I recommend

Best donut in town by far! Yes, much better than overrated Mr. T?s. They change their oil daily unlike all other donut shops. They?ve been the best donut around for 28 years. Excellent customer service. Sam takes care of his customers. I?ve been going here since they opened. If you go late at night or early morning, you can score a warm one. Nothing like it!!

This has become my go-to donut shop when I am in the area. Every week or two. Their donuts are really pretty good, however... [ About every third time I have stopped by I got my style donut that must have sat in the case during the day? I find if they sit too long the donut I buy for myself will be greasy, it depends what time of evening I am returning home from Modesto down Scenic...& how long since they were made, that is why I rated them a 4 I buy a "plain buttermilk bar" or "old fashioned". I recommend

The best 24 hour donuts ?? & slaps on Mr. T's! Love the worker's! Always so kind and this was my man's favorite! So many good times & good memories!! Thank you for that!

Better than Kristy Kreme, mister Ts, and Dunkin donuts! Favorite donut shop EVER! The donuts are always delicious and melt in your mouth! Plus they always make a bunch! Other donut shops never make enough of the pink sprinkles but that is not an issue here! Love this place!

We Donut is the meaning of "Don't judge a book by its cover". It may appear to be just another random donut shop with average donuts. But once you take a bite of one, you're mind will be blown

The best donuts in Modesto hands down. Weather it?s their old fashioned, chocolate bar, cake crumble, buttermilk or (my personal favorite) white cake w/ sprinkle, they are moist, perfectly cooked and so so good. The nicest service as well. Love this place!

Without exaggeration...WE donuts shop...put out a donut...that MELTS in your mouth. By far my fav donut shop. Family owned business. They offer a very nice selection of donuts and top the experience off with excellent customer service. There is disabled parking...and your given a welcoming greeting...and a smile as you enter their shop. Just love this shop.

DELICIOUS....I love their donuts and I really enjoy the family that has been thier making donuts for years...definitely worth the drive. I recommend this place.??

Best donuts ever. I love donuts and I always compare places to this. Highly recommended the maple bar or the maple triangle with whipped cream in the middle! Also I used to go there every Saturday as a kid....15 years later and the owner always asks how my brother and dad are. If you haven't been before bring cash, but imo the atm fee is still worth it

One of the best donut shops in town if not the best donut shop. The donuts are fresh , they're bear claws are like eating an apple pie it is so delicious. The prices are reasonable and the place is clean. Friendly people.

Who doesn't love fresh donuts?! Great food and great service. I highly recommend

Best donuts in town by far. Man that owns its pretty funny and always getting me to buy more maple bars instead of just one. Their coffee is exceptionally good also and I wonder why that is? Maybe the donuts enhance the coffee?

I don't know what they put in the batter but their donuts are friggin delicious! My personal favorites are the ones covered in sugar. The donuts are so soft and perfect. I am not someone who likes donuts but there is something about We donuts ??????

Best donuts ever. I went there at 0:30 hrs. All the donuts were fresh. I wanted some plain glazed donuts and they made me some in about 10 minutes. Melted me my mouth. Try them out everyone I know you will be very pleased.

We live in the Bayarea, but ever we are in Modesto we have to stop by this donut shop! The donuts are so good and the owners are so nice and pleasant. We leave with good tasting donuts and laughter!

They are so accommodating to our needs. We always get round maples, maple bars and no icing buttermilk bars. We call with order of what we would like, they always give us a time all our items will be ready. Only request, wish they would make buttermilk bars with raisins, No Icing. Best place in Modesto!

Old man Lee works hard and takes pride in all he does. Donuts always fresh and he is always pleasantly excited to off assistance

Donuts are great but I just wish they had more of a variety later on in the day.

Good customer service and nice people. They even let a homeless man sleep in front of their store till early in the morning. Good dojnuts too! They might be just as good as Mr. Ts if not better

Best place in town to get Donuts! I recommend this place to anyone! Great customer service, freshly made donuts and just overall nice people! This will always be my donut stop and I will be sending my friends and family! Thank you for the positive experience!

Could be better. Every time I go they never have regular glazed donuts or chocolate donuts which are the reasons I go to the donut shop. They are open 24hrs so might as well keep up with having all flavors of donuts ready

we love We! this is our favorite donut spot in Modesto we go every Saturday morning at least the owner is super friendly. they only take cash, there is an atm inside but it's kinda weird you tell it the amount and it prints a r eciept that you give to the employee and they use it like a voucher for cash.. place is open 24/7 and the donuts are always fresh!

I grew up in Modesto left for 20 years been back over 10 years and just went here a couple weeks ago... Fresh donuts inexpensive and great service and open 24 hours!! Gotta go here.

They have my favorite donut... Chocolate bar filled with whip cream. Mmmm mmmm good!! They are open 24 hrs.

My family's been going here for years I can't imagine my morning without a delicious jelly filled donut I know when I come here I'm going to get a nice freshly baked donut

Lived in Modesto 25 years...my whole life and We Donuts has always been my go to place! They have the best donuts in Modesto and they are nice people! I go every couple weeks

Donuts were good not old and stale. Not too hard to order friendly staff. No one else has said this that I?ve seen so BRING CASH! They have a funky atm setup that gives a receipt rather than cash but charges 2 bucks like a regular atm. All around tho pretty good shop

Okay so I went to WE Donuts tonight. I asked for 4 chocolate donuts with chocolate frosting with nuts to go in my dozen of donuts. I was given vanilla and asked if that was the right ones. I was told yes by two different workers yes they were right. But when I got home NO NO No they were not. So I took them back. The man who help me says what. I said I wanted Chocolate. He said Okay Takes back the donuts That I brought back and puts them back on the shelf to be sold again. Is that how a business is sup

Entrance/location can be tricky if on Oakdale and Scenic. Had to double back through parking lot. But found what I was looking for. Also quality and service were great. Overall a good experience for my first time. I'm definitely going back.

I've been coming here for donuts for almost at least ten years and they still make some of the best donuts I've ever had.

The ham and cheese croissant was as good as it has always been. The doughnuts were just ok this time.... Not too impressed with being robbed by a $2 charge for using a card. It doesn't cost anywhere that close to authorize a purchase via debit.... Editing to include that he ran it as if I was doing an ATM withdrawal and was charged an additional non bank ATM fee. $5 in fees, for $11 total to get my 2 kids each a doughnut and myself a croissant.

Favorite Modesto shop by a mile AND it?s open 24/7! Such an amazing hidden gem

Love the donuts. Always great prices, best soda deals. Friendly staff, and open 24/7 . ?? Try the church chicken bowl,$7 best value.

The person helping us was very helpful!! I always passed by this donut shop but never stopped! I will be visiting again! The donuts were fresh and soft!!

Been going here for years...Donuts have not changed, remained the same. I would compare them to Mr. T's (in my opinion!) but wish they would branch out into creating newer items as well such as Cronuts, & croissants.

First time there, I was pleasantly surprised by the maple bars and the chocolate no fashioned. Will make it more of a regular stop. Service was very cheerful

Best donut shop I have been to in Modesto or anywhere .. owners are the nicest people ever and always make their donuts fresh all the time .. come here all the time after work. Love it here

My go-to spot for fresh donuts. This place is highly underrated. Donuts are always fresh and the selection is pretty good. The owners are very nice as well. Highly recommended neighborhood donut shop.

Best in the morning, of course. Don't prepare donuts as often throughout the day as some other shops, so after 10 am or so not that good. But great before then!

The only reason this place isn't getting a 5 is because we didn't like the icing on top. The selection was good and the donuts seemed fresh from that morning. Mind you, nothing with beat a Bloedows donut from Winona, MN.

Bacon maple bars are the best! Coffee is fresh and hot, not bitter. We have received great service each time we have gone in.

Have been going to this donut shop for 20 + years absolutely love them when I was pregnant with my daughter I would crave their donuts and the frosting that comes on their donuts so whenever I ordered he would always give me a small cup full of the frosting they're the best

This is just a Modesto favorite! Always soft and delicious. Their employees are always friendly, helpful and happy to make your order great. It's always a good experience coming here!

Honestly the best donuts i?ve ever had! So fluffy and they melt in your mouth!! Will come again????????????

Best apple fritters in town. All there other donuts are very good also. We's donuts is the go to spot for sure. Dunkin donuts don't have anything on we

I do believe their donuts have gotten bigger. If you see a homeless man sleeping in the corridor, a few doors down, buy him a coffee and donut. It will make his day and raise your vibration, also.

Good donuts. Fast service. Friendly staff Older man in the mornings can be a bit grumpy and rude sometimes but good other than that

These are among the best, in direct competition with Mr. Ts. But I think they are both really good. We has better donut holes and buttermilks than Mr. Ts but Ts has better old fashions and the list goes on.

It was ok... I went late night & they didn't have anything on my list. Everytime I mentioned a donut he said "in the morning", so why be open 24 hrs? What I got was good... But I'll never go back til AM

The BEST donuts ever!! Been going here for 20 years! The donuts are so fluffy and the icing is thick and delicious! Made to perfection.

The freshest and best selection of donuts in Modesto. Great service, too. I would love to eat one of each??

Long time Modesto favorite. Some of the biggest and best apple fritters around.

Good local donut shop. I used to work close to this shop and their donuts were always fresh. The service is fast and their donuts are light and fluffy.

More expensive & less variety than other local shops, but open 24/7! & good hot coffee. Large selection of drinks/milks/juices. Small donut selection.

The donuts always taste freshly baked highly recommend this great donut shop.

Great donut shop and very family friendly. Inside is limited so I suggest get them to go. Always great tasting and good selection.

Best Doughnuts Around....Highly Recommended.. This Little Doughnut Place....Its also Opened 24hours a day. For those Late Night Cravings.... Stop by and see them... You won't be Disipointed....

What an incredible donuts! The best I've ever taste. You have to go there!

Great donuts. Only place to get fresh donuts. My whole family gets our donuts here.

The donuts are always fresh and taste great. Very nice staff and quick service!

These donuts were soo yummy I much rather come here than any other place in Modesto.

Donuts are great. Been there different times of the day and donuts are same quality. Would like to see powered donuts there.

Long time owner. Everytime I bring these doughnuts anywhere they get rave reviews!! . Very fresh and yummy !!!

Doesn?t accept my credit unions debit cards, or credit. After working 16 hours I just wanted a doughnut, but none of the 5 cards in my wallet are accepted. Very disappointed.
