Very reasonable prices! You can get a monster of a donut for less than two bucks. Donuts so fresh, you can see them being made! My personal favorite? The chocolate square.

Great place for a work donut pick up. I was in and out in about 5 minutes. I told the person behind the counter I wanted 2 dozen variety, and she made some great picks. Everybody at work was really happy about the donuts!

In Chico since @ 1977 or so. I remember the original owner, God rest his soul. πŸ˜₯ I do know this as an old Chico favorite...(like myself πŸ˜‰) They taste a bit different, no doubt, but still crowded any given weekend morning.

Great doughnuts, dont forget to bring cash. No matter if you like a traditional doughnut or something with chocolate and peanut butter filling and drizzled in frosted goodness, theyll have something for you.

Best. Donuts. Ever. Or at least that Ive had. I come fairly often, even though I dont care for their disregard for covid.Prices are not bad at all, and the best part: open late! Not a better spot for the midnight munchies.

Is one of the most iconic, original businesses in Chico. Been family owned since the sixties. By far by far the best donuts in town.

Go late. The donut holes, while still warm, literally melt in your mouth. Great way to cap off a night out.

I came in. The emoyee was sweeping. They finished and did not bother to wash their hands. I asked them to do so and was scolded. I have also seen the donut maker move trash bins, touch their skin, phone, cup then mix dough. There are many more cases. Please fix your sanitary practices.

Thanks to the young lady who recovered my money 4/21/21 of several $20.00 bills that slipped out of pocket. Walked to the parking lot, and handed to me while i was in my car eating donut. Now, this is true honesty. THANK YOU

Love this place. It smells so good. I buy donuts for my family and for my co workers. Because I can not eat the donuts because I have a soy allergy.

RUDE AND ABRASIVE!!!!I witnessed the young man snap at a minority in front of me because she had a debit card and not cash.When I asked the young lady for custard filled bars she said they didnt have any. I said I had called ahead. Thats when the young man yelled out Yeah Right! in a very rude tone of voice. I WONT SPEND MY MONEY HERE AS LONG AS HE WORKS HERE!!!!!!!!!!

If you want great quality donuts made from scratch every morning in a large assortment of options. This is the place! Not only are the employees welcoming and friendly but this establishment has been here for decades serving the community and people every day that love to get their fix. If youre trying to impress your boss or encourage your employees, you got to get them donuts! Dont forget to bring cash!

Love the donuts, love the service, everything. I have been going there a few times a week, waiting for donut holes, and they keep not having them, which sucks. Besides not having them for awhile, everything is great!

Employees not wearing masks during peak of covid pandemic....Normally this stuff doesn’t bother me accept when there is exposed food you’re working with. Probably should have some type of food safety measures...Been a huge donut nook fan my whole life, but I can’t support a business who doesn’t have concern for the community!

Best donuts in town, def some of the best donuts i have ever had. I dont even want to say this because they are already hard to get, but the devils food cake donut with chocolate icing is fire. The staff has always been extremely nice and friendly to me when i come in, and extremely accommodating for special requests.

Review β„–52

Not the best donuts in Chico, but not the worst either. I wont be returning due to the poor costumer service and attitude given by employees every time I go. Gave them the benefit of the doubt the first time there was attitude, but it continued the following time so I know they dont care about costumer service!

Ro

Great local donuts shop. However, if youre concerned about Covid19 probably should avoid this place. They dont require their customers to wear masks and none of the staff wear masks either.

Review β„–62

Pros: Really good donut shop with an old school throwback decor (feels like youre back in the 80s). Pre-Covid customer service was always pretty good.Cons:. Cash only. Theyve been rather visible/vocal about their non-compliance with COVID health recommendations, (no masks/no hand washing/they get agitated when customers bring it up etc.) so if thats important to you, I would stay away until the pandemic resolves.

Refrigerated and cold Boston creme donut, not a single employee wore a mask and they rushed and hurried me to pick my donuts. Overall the donut tastes pretty good, but why would you keep a donut cold and in the fridge? And to think, our President has COVID, but this establishment thinks it’s above health standards is insane. Won’t be going back. Enjoy if you like a risk of COVID with your food.

Good Donuts. Most Donut shops make their Donuts early in the morning. When I say morning I mean around 4 or 5 AM. Donut Nook is still making Donuts at 9:30 AM giving customers a fresh warm treat.

I love their donuts every single one Ive had has been great. Get there early if you like jelly filled because they sell out fast. My wife wishes they made cream filled along with their custard filled but they dont yet. All in all the best Ive had in Chico.

Overpriced! Donuts are over a dollar a piece ($1.25). But also, you get what you pay for. One of the best donut shops Ive ever been to, great place to splurge a little instead of getting stale Safeway donuts.

Review β„–97

The big bay window is great for observing exactly how those tasty donuts are made. Cutomer service is always great and the aramo is inviting. The low key atmosphere is a great place to kick back with family and or friends and enjoy a large array of scrumptious indulgence. The nostalgic arcade machine is a big bonus to your donut pleasure.

One of the best donuts ever - simple and straightforward donut shop that hasn’t updated its decor since the 70s most likely and it’s a local spot

Love, love, love their donuts. Tigers tails are a must (if you get there at the right time) and even if you dont eat the donuts right away, they still taste just as good two or three days later.

These were the freshest donuts I ever had and I have had a lot of donuts during my life. The donut nook was clean, well presented and mouth watering delicious. No kidding and no exaggeration.
