Very unassuming looking from the appearance, but the donuts were great. I really enjoyed my time munching down on the different donuts. They had an assortment of donuts, and they had prices listed on the windows. That's appreciated, so you instantly know if the donut you want is more expensive. Got a maple bar, and it was good. I enjoyed it. It wasn't too thick or bready. We also got a massive fritter-like donut. That was good and we enjoyed it. Good bargain, I feel. The standout donut was the raspberry filled donut. I've eaten way too many donuts in my life, and jelly filled donuts are my jam. The raspberry filled one here was hefty in size and weight. The donut itself was kind of glazed, rather than a bread consistency that other places have. The filling was good and not too sweet, and there was a very generous amount. It was great; I hate it when other places are super dough and tough to chew. I'll definitely be back just for that donut. With the other types of donuts that all looked appealing, I will definitely be a repeat customer. read more

After looking at all the donuts we ordered maple bars, maple round donuts and a sprinkle donut. They were so good we forgot to take a picture. 10/10 - we'll def be back! read more

16th Street Donuts - Outside - Donuts Near Me - Sacramento, California

C'est délicieux! 10 stars, 6 fluffy, fresh indulgence I got at after work this 6am+ today. Oh my goodness, I'm transported to France this morning. Reminded me of my time in Paris, eating a pain au chocolat and a cup of Tilly coffee... 16th St Donuts version(can call it pain au chocolat, whichever term fancies you), is to die for! Bite full of rich croissant dough, buttery, and dark, a hint of salt, not so sweet chocolate, beautifully complex but just the perfect balance of ingredients. I love it! Oh, I forgot to take a picture before I ate it Before I continue my review into a novel, the 6 donuts were: pain au chocolat (of course), raspberry/cherry like danish, bear claw, apple fritter, maple old fashion and maple bar. I can't eat all 3 in one sitting (3 for my babe sharing calories is in), but the little bite of the apple fritter was two thumbs up. The danish has the same flaky buttery texture of the pain au chocolat, it's perfect too. Here's the other best thing- $13 for all 6. I would have paid more elsewhere. Thank you so much 16th St Donuts for these delicious finds! Hey go here early tomorrow, you won't regret it! read more

16th Street Donuts - That's 4 of the 6 heavenly dessert at this wonderful unpretentious donut place - Donuts Near Me - Sacramento, California

Great little place to stop by for breakfast on the way out of downtown before hitting the 160. There's plenty of parking, the storefront is in a convenient location, and the staff are always friendly. I've noticed lots of repeat customers coming in, which gives it a real neighborhood feel that I really like inside the shop. I'm not a donut connoisseur by any means, but I've been here a few times and think it's a solid option. The donuts always taste fresh, and the donut holes are great. The ham and cheese croissant is especially good when you ask for it warmed up; it's huge with salty ham and gooey cheese. Today I needed a quick breakfast on the way to work and grabbed another ham and cheese croissant along with a raspberry jelly donut, which hit the spot. Overall, it's a solid donut shop: very affordable, great service, and consistently tasty. Definitely worth a stop if you're in the area or heading out of downtown. read more

Apple Fritter Review #45 Glaze: a good amount, three stars Outside: very crispy edges, but frankly with a burnt taste, three stars Inside: a little wet but fine, lots of cinnamon, three stars Filling: enough apple, pieces not too small, three stars A solid three star fritter on the crunchy (burned) side. read more

We stopped by 16th Street Donuts and it wasn't busy, which made it easy to order and find a place to sit. I had an apple fritter, two cake donuts with the maple one being especially good, a chocolate donut with peanuts, a cinnamon donut, and a regular chocolate donut. Everything tasted fresh. My girlfriend got a coffee and she liked it. The prices were reasonable for a downtown spot. Overall, it was a nice and easy visit, and I'd come back again. read more

16th Street donuts is great! My husband and I often come in on Saturday mornings before he goes to work in the morning and we are greeted by the nicest man who make sure we get what we need. After going there consistently, he memorized our coffee and donut order, he is very nice. The selection of donuts is perfect. There's a little something for everyone. I like how simple this donut shop is with donuts and coffee. There's plenty of parking in the parking lot. The ordering area is very clean and so is the display of donuts. I've seen this place get busy, but it runs smoothly. Customers get what they want and are out of the shop in a reasonable amount of time. I highly recommend you check out 16 Street Donuts if you want good donuts and coffee! read more

My new "go to" spot for fresh donuts! And they still give you the old fashioned bakers dozen, for $17.50...for all donuts!

Sooo damn good I had to ask them where they got them. I have never been here but gonna start now! Seriously sick-azz pieces of happiness they purvey at this shop! Git sum! read more

16th street donuts was amazing! Old school donut shop with your classic flavors! The lady that works there (may also be the owner) was so sweet! We got 3 donuts for less than $5.00! Can't beat it! I recommend going to Sun House coffee shop and then checking them out since they're right across the street! read more

Ok we have been going to 16th St. donuts for probably four years now I guess they just recently changed owners . I thought maybe it was just a one time thing, but it is not, the donuts are not as fresh as they always were. No matter what time we go , they almost taste day old! I wonder if anyone else feels like I do, and I wonder does the owner know? They need to. read more

The staff are very friendly. The donuts are delicious. Prices are sooo reasonable. Best place in Sacramento!

I haven't been to this donut shop in years, but my daughter was craving a doughnut, so we decided to stop by for breakfast. They had a good selection, the donuts were really tasty, and the customer service was friendly and welcoming. It was a nice little treat. Glad we made the stop! read more

This is the unofficial best donut among my coworkers! Everything here at 16th st donut is perfection... big pillowy donuts, thick glazes, pink boxes and the donuts are under $2. Hard to find in this economy! The owners and employee always are welcoming, quick to fill my boxes and lately have been filling the rest of the box with donut holes!!! Truly the local donut place and I am so glad they're open early in the morning for us. read more

The donuts are delicious! Service was great, the man behind the counter was very nice even though you could tell he was very uncomfortable with all the homeless coming in and around the shop this morning. I was talking to a couple guys out front just offering my breakfast burrito and when I walked into the shop he asked if everything was okay--I really appreciated that! even though everything was totally fine. Go give this place some love and buy a donut or two for the homeless that hag around there. The donuts are honestly so cheap, they could use some help trying to keep them at bay a little bit. They're a business! Not a food bank. read more

I'm 99% gluten free and rarely having sugars outside of fruit. That 1% is so I can maintain my humanity. Classic glazed- First bite- never fails- offers a welcome distraction by the fluffiness- my partner likes the jelly filled- and the maple bars. Best part, the service here is always so kind. The owners and today's service Man- all kind and regular folk. It's rare these days so I felt ppl should know. Get your sugars and sweets here- the coffee is solid as well. Do not come here for the ambiance!! You get in and out into your self provided ambiance and enjoy your sugars elsewhere. read more

16th Street Donuts - A picture of Brenda Bloom watching me eat a donut. donut not featured. - Donuts Near Me - Sacramento, California

DO NOT SPEND YOUR MONEY HERE IF YOU'RE PLANNING TO GET COFFEE AT THE CAFE ACROSS THE STREET AFTERWARD. THEY WILL CALL A TOW TRUCK ON YOU EVEN IF YOU BUY DONUTS FROM THEM. They will tow you the second you step foot out of the door!! You 100% will get towed. They called a tow truck on me 2 minutes after buying my donuts and walking to the coffee shop next door - which is maybe 30 yards away. Lucky I saw the tow truck pull into the lot (because I literally just bought a donut 2 mins ago) and ran back to move my car. This is totally wrong and unprofessional because I just bought donuts from the business and it says customers can park there for 1 hour. I went back into the donut store to buy a homeless gentleman a donut and ask the owner why he tried to tow me and he said it's not a big deal and he's been in business for 25 years. The coffee shop seems to bring a ton of business to this block but DO NOT SPEND YOUR MONEY HERE. read more

A glazed donut for under $1, can't complain. Super fluffy and so good. It's not a sit-in type of place. You go in, get your donut, and move on with your day. read more

I'm on vacation here in Sacramento and one of my favorite morning traditions when I travel is to find local donut shops. This one is in a less glamorous part of town, but when I saw that the signage probably hasn't been changed since the 90s, I actually got excited! A shop that looks that old and is still open likely has some GOOD food. And boy did they deliver!! I got a glazed twist and a chocolate frosted cake ring for me and the same for my partner. For 4 donuts, of substantial size I might add, I paid $5.50! The price is right she the taste is even better. Very very good. Quick polite service as well! I'm only here for a few days but I will definitely be back read more

The customer service is awful there. They are so damn rude. They make up random rules as they go..... some days they fill my chocolate bars and sometimes they refuse. Can't stand some of the people there. they act like they could care less about your business read more

Delicious fresh donuts every morning and the man that works there is so nice too. Love this place!

SO GOOD! Went in on a whim a few hours before they closed and the guy behind the counter was super nice. My boyfriend & I both picked a bunch of donuts and despite being so close to closing, they were all still so fresh and delicious. Very happy and will be back! read more

16th Street Donuts - Donuts Near Me - Sacramento, California

This review is not about the donuts themselves but about the people staff were allowing to loiter inside the establishment. Went early morning around 5am. Service was prompt and man working was friendly but there was around 7 people loitering inside and right outside the door. None of which were eating a donut? My main annoyance was a woman who was clearly on drugs or in a manic episode flicking an unlit cigarette and rambling inside the store. Got in my space a few times, kept trying to talk to me. Seriously, why are you letting people harass your customers. Do better. read more

Very classic donut shop. In a spacious parking lot. Got a dozen or so donuts plus some donut holes for the office, everyone loved it!

I'm always on the hunt for a great apple fritter, and I have found my Sacramento fritter. They only had day-olds, so we got two donuts for $1. The fritter was enormous and still delicious, even on its second day. I know where I'll be going the next time I desire an apple fritter. read more

I love this place! The selection is great!!! The prices are great!! Bring cash because it's a little more if you use a card!

Don't sleep on this place just because it doesn't pop out to you when you pass by it. It is reasonably priced and have a great selection of donuts. The donuts selection is what you would typically see at any donut shop but the quality is there. I would stop by once in a while and grab two glazed twists on the way to work. The guys working there are pretty quick on getting people in and out. There is plenty of parking in the plaza so you can pull right up to the store and have your donuts in a few moments. The only thing I do caution people is that there are a few homeless in the area and the most they would do is ask if you have any spare change. The shop doesn't have much seating but then again this is a donut shop most people just get their donuts and go. read more

I bought a dozen donuts on a Sunday around 7:40am. I was the only one there so it was not crowded. The man was very sweet and helped me right away. I enjoyed my chocolate custard donut. The only recommendation I have is to have a venmo or apple sign up so we can send a tip because a lot of us hardly have cash and I paid with card and there was no way to leave a tip through that! We will definitely be returning here for more donuts. read more
