This place is absolutely AMAZING. The vegan options are delicious. The old fashioned was legit the best old fashioned Ive ever had. Life changing! The ham and cheese croissant is delicious as well!

Saw this in youtube and was among the best donut shops recommended. Amazing quality of donuts. I got their cronuts. I like how they put a lot of toppings and icing. Well worth it. Their han and cheese croissant are really good. They use good quality cheese not the cheap stuff. I would love to visit here a lot but I have to watch out my sugar intake. So maybe once a month is good.Parking is limited but it is not busy early morning.

So much to choose from. Blueberry fritter 🔥krounut 🤤 PBJ 🔥🔥 This is the go to donut spot they will not disappoint. They also have vegan donuts and theyre so much better than the regular non vegan ones. They taste less sugary. 💯

Best donuts in L. A.! I love their huge vegan selection, but Im glad theres a regular selection so theres something for everyone. Everything tastes homemade and I love that their donuts arent too sweet as far as donuts go. People there are always nice. I love that they actually have parking. When Im going to treat myself, this is where I go.

Solid donut shop! It’s similar to DK’s in Santa Monica, but a bit better, cleaner, and fresher. Love the Thai iced tea! We got ham and cheese croissants and they warmed them up for us. They were very yummy! Staff are friendly. It’s great that they have so many vegan options.I’m knocking a star off because I wasn’t significantly impressed with the taste of the donuts. My boyfriend thought they were great. For me, they’re just okay. I think you can get amazing tasting donuts at other places in LA. This shop is close to where I live, so I’m sure we’ll be back and maybe I’ll find a donut I love.

These were some of the best donuts I’ve had in my life. I tried six donut spots in Los Angeles for my “donut tour”, no COMPLAINTS. Amazing, it’s so fresh no matter WHEN YOU GO. Urghhhh, wish I lived on the west coast

My family and I visited the spot because we saw there were so many donut spots in Los Angeles, but this one rated among the highest on Yelp.Well, let me say the place is very nice for a donut shop.Plenty of options.I especially loved the vegan options offered.Customer service… not what I would expect considering the location. I felt like the young lady was a little testy with taking our orders and snappish but whatever.We ordered 2 regular yellow donuts with chocolate icing, a coconut donut that was vegan as well as a few specialty donuts. They were good not the best Ive had but they were good.Would I stop there again, nope.I would stop somewhere else in LA that provided better customer service. Donuts shops are a dime a dozen in LA... and I have a dollar!

Review №14

My wife and I used to get turkey sandwiches here every day, and they were great. Now they put barely any turkey in the sandwich. It’s a vegetable sandwich now and we are not coming back. It expensive for a turkey sandwich and it has to have at least 4 slices of turkey, since their slices are EXTREMELY thin. First picture is how it used to be, and the second picture is the horrible job they do now every single time. Whoever works there is not good.

Best donuts in LA. I usually get the cronuts. They are always fresh and delicious. I bought a dozen regular donuts for the office the other day. My coworkers have been asking whe will I bring them in again. Definitely a spot to try if you like a variety of tasty good treats.

I order coffee and take a donut every day. but already several times ordering latte, I get a terrible filter coffee. they charge me like a latte. put a cup in the coffee machine, and then refill the coffee filter. guys, dont do that. this is terrible. the first time I saw it, I said to fix it. I saw it for the second time, but decided not to speak. and write here. be careful and get what you pay for.

Pure happiness when biting into their classic glazed. Soft, pillowy, chewy, and it just melts in your mouth. Never oily or bready. They have perfected the recipe. Please don’t ever change it.

Love this place! The custard cronut had such a fresh taste and flavor I could literally only eat that for as long as I live. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Our wait time was short, while our appetite was huge! Got some hot chocolates to was the donuts down, and all I can say is “yes”!Came back for breakfast and man it didn’t disappoint. As always, staff was friendly. I do wish that American Cheese was an option for the breakfast sandwhiches.

You cant beat this place for a good breakfast donut, or breakfast sandwiches. Coffee is good as well. Line is never long and it moves fast. So many choices. And if your looking for Vegan, this is the donut shop of choice for you.

Review №34

The one and only place I get donuts. My favorite is the Creme Brûlée cause of the custard inside and the crunch from the hard sugar. The S’mores is also on my list.Diana is amazing, by the way. And SK’s 🍩&🥐 is super lucky to have her on their team. We liked how she apologized for the wait, because she didn’t have to.Donut hesitate and try this place if you can.Make sure to keep it to 3 people at a time and wear a mask. Donut be one of those people.

The fruity pebbles and s’mores were the best. The others were okay. But the fresh mini cronuts. That was the icing on the cake (donut)! They came out hot and fresh and barley made it to the car! They were amazing!! I would love to come back earlier in the day next time to try more cronuts! See ya next time!

Review №37

I’m a bit of a donut connoisseur, and these are the best donuts I’ve ever had (the cronuts are GOAT). Went dairy free a few years ago and missed these, but SK now has vegan donuts that are, you guessed it, the best vegan donuts I’ve ever had. If I didn’t have the delectable memory of the original donuts I would think they’re lying to me about them being vegan. But no. It’s real. What are you waiting for?

Review №42

Went there pretty late one night for some snacks. Wanted to try everything but got half a dozen to start. The cronut in my opinion was the most amazing of all! It was filled with custard and fresh strawberries. The oreo one was meh and the other regular donuts seemed not as good or was starting to get stale which was unfortunate. Id definitely go back again to get the strawberry, custard filled donut again!

Review №43

Okay, so I only eat vegan donuts because Im lactose intolerant. Their vegan donuts are okay, not the best in LA I give them a 7.5 out of 10 (owners should order some Donut Friend Donuts, so they can see how they can make their donuts a 10 out of 10), but the turkey croissant sandwich I ordered was AHHH-MAZINGGGGGG!! BEST croissant sandwich I ever had, hands down!! My only regret was not telling them to add bacon! Next time for sure tho. Highly recommend this place especially for their croissant sandwichs. Their regular donuts do look bomb though, only wish I was able to try those...damn you lactose!!!!

Review №44

This is a great place to head to if you have late night munchies. They seem to have fresh donuts into the night which is always great. My friend and I stopped in for a donut and coffee... the coffee was okay but the donuts were fantastic.I also bought some for a friend from work. Everyone enjoyed the donuts. The variety is good too, vegan options.

Review №45

Their cronut is pretty good. I tried 2 other donuts but didn’t love them. I’d be willing to try some more but it kinda sucks that most of their donuts don’t have any filling. Sorta basic. The cronut makes up for it though.

Excellent vegan donut choices! About a dozen vegan varieties were available when we went. They nailed it on flavor and texture. Plus they were gorgeous and tasted very high-quality. For instance, the cake donuts had a good bit of nutmeg. Very satisfying.

Review №52

My sister discovered this place. We’ve been buying donuts from them for a couple of months now. We go once a month. Any who, my fav donuts r the raspberry filled. Apparently EVERYONE else likes the raspberry filled as well. My gripe IS, since they know that the regular raspberry filled donut is the favorite. Why don’t you Bake MORE to accommodate your customers?? Since I indulge once a month. It’s aggravating to travel to your shop only to find that my fav donuts are SOLD OUT! And I’m not paying four dollars for ONE vegan donut. It’s not that serious. Selling out your favorite donuts won’t keep me coming to your place of business. What keeps REPEAT business is a steady stream of products. I’ll have to take my business elsewhere if this continues to happen. I’m not trying to waste my gas and time only to be told you sold out earlier that morning. It’s not rocket science folks.

The donuts with white cream inside were horrible. Instead of using high quality ingredients the cream was a disgusting lard. And to make matters worse, the donuts cost approximately $4 each. Other donuts tasted good, but stay away from any of their donuts with white cream inside.

This place has been on my to try list for a while. Finally stopped through after the holiday weekend. It was a Tuesday mid morning so was able to get a parking spot in their tiny parking lot in front of the shop. There are maybe 8 spots in this little plaza.I wish they had little signs in front of the different donuts - I felt bad asking what they all were because they were all so unique! Luckily it wasnt that busy when I went so I was able to take my time and not feel too rushed.I tried: creme brûlée donut, nutella walnut, salted caramel apple cake, dulce de leche, Girl Scout inspired coconut chocolate caramel, and the strawberry custard cronut.The creme brûlée even had the hard candied top, which I thought was inventive. Flavor was good and the custard inside was tasty.The raised donuts were so moist and soft - these were my favorites! The dulce de leche was super tasty because of the yeast donut - I just wish the dulce de leche was a bit more evenly distributed because I got a thick bite of just the filling and it was super sweet. Still very good - one of my faves I tried.The salted caramel apple cake I was most excited about but the cake donut wasnt as moist as the raised ones. Flavor was there though.The cronut was tasty - loved the cronut itself and the custard inside was not overly sweet and had a nice, smooth texture.The walnut nutella and caramel delite inspired donut were my two faves.Also tried the iced coffee - was fine and always pairs well with donuts. Considering the size and quality of the donuts, I think prices were fair. I would definitely come back!

Review №75

Great donuts. The cronut was great - plain glazed is probably the best cronut I have had. Blueberry donut was light and fluffy and nicely glazed, and the buttermilk bar was also a winner. However, possibly the best of the lot was the glazed original donut. The one that you get free with a Yelp check in. It was perfectly moist and sweet and delicious, which was a pleasant surprise.Went late on a Sunday night (10pm is) and they were still brining out fresh donuts, and the store was busy. Really good donut spot!

I love SK and its comforting knowing that they are always open. Their cronuts are the best in the city. Premium donuts (SKronuts) are totally delicious and their standard donuts are great as well. Service is always friendly, attentive and fast. My favorite donut shop in Los Angeles.

Review №77

Whether its because you are getting home late from work at 9 pm and are in dire need of a delicious snack, waking up and need to refuel in order to get ahead for the day, have the 2 am munchies, or just want a quick lunch bite, this 24 Hour Donuts and Crossaint safe-haven has you covered at all hours (literally) for all your deepest yearnings (sugar). Right on W 3rd blocks away from awesome shopping at The Grove and on fairfax or by hopping on the 16, 17, 217 bus from SK headed the other direction, one is a quick ride to Koreatown, Echo Park, and then Downtown. This spot is pretty much a very short walk for all Miracle Mile residents but I have the feeling it is an off-the beaten path and lesser known place since it sits in a modest outdoor mall. The stuff here is delicious and I got myself a bangin egg and cheese croissant with a nice sweet coffee for under $6. Between here and Einstein Bros bagels I will never have to worry about finding an affordable breakfast treat. What this place is really known for is donuts and they have plentiful choices which come in a rainbow of chocolately, cereal topped, packed with filling, oozing with goodness, etc. etc. colors and tastes. SK functions like more of a take out counter, however, minimal seating is offered which is nice to know!

Went here at around 9:30am on a Wednesday and there was only one person in line ahead of me. Great selection of donuts and skronuts. Very nice workers that helped us out as it was our 1st time there. We ended up buying 2 skronuts (strawberry nutella and blueberry) and 5 special donuts (peanut butter with chocolate chip, maple bacon, red velvet, chocolate raised with cream, and oreo blast). Total was between $20-25; not as expensive as donut bar in San Diego, but not as cheap as your regular mom and pop shop. Price is the only reason I didnt give this place 5 stars. All of the donuts were soft and delicious. Maple bacon was a good mix of salty and sweet. The skronuts were made well: slightly crispy and not oily.

Review №88

For those of you who know me, will know that I must have something sweet after a savory meal. After the amazing Book of Mormon show at the Pantages Theater, I was craving something sweet. I turned into Yelp. I found this place. It was around 11:15pm when we arrived. All I have to say is wow. The place was full. No where for us to sit. We walked in and I told the employee that I have never been here before. Can you go over every item? He did. One by one. Half of the display was gourmet donuts. We got 4 donuts. My favorite was the red velvet. I loved the cream cheese frosting. My friends favorite was the Nutella strawberry. We will definitely be back.

Review №89

When looking for donuts, this place is a true staple for the neighborhood. The place is open pretty late and they always have really fresh out-of-the-oven donuts.I love the blueberry, glazed, strawberry sprinkled, and their sugar donuts. If you are vegan, their glazed vegan tastes identical to their regular so its totally okay to feel confident knowing you will get something good!Staff is always nice. It helps to know what you want just Incase there is a line, then you wont feel so rushed.Some of the items come out fresh at certain times and therefore are unavailable at other times as well.Parking is right in front but limited. You can always search on S Cochran street, which is their little side street, for parking.My half dozen cost me $8.75 and have lasted two days so far without losing their soft bite and moist center!Everyone who hangs out with me eventually makes a stop to SKs willing or not... sorry not sorry!

I’ve been going to DK donuts in Santa Monica for the past 8 years but having recently moved I needed a new donut shop. I’ve heard plenty about SKs but I was not disappointed. Amazing cake donuts.

This place was recommended by a colleague of mine and Im so glad I went there with family. The specialty donuts are delicious!! Right amount of sweetness and crunchiness.This was definitely a special treat for the family and will be back for more.Parking: small and limited parking available.Donut store: due to Covid-19, they only allow 3 people inside at once. Expect to make line outside but line moves quick.Service: friendly staff and quick service.Price: can be a little pricey but its worth the treat.
