I will be coming back to try more things! I loved the maple bacon donut (it is rare that actual bacon is included in foods that list it vs. bacon bits or flavoring), and my sister enjoyed her pistachio and chocolate donut. My mom liked her coconut macaroon, also. I'm excited to come back here!

I love donuts, so I may not be the best to be critical of a donut shop as I love most of the ones I try. This place was no exception. Each donut has the right amount of fluffiness to denseness ratio. The maple twist had a good amount of maple on top, with a delicious twist glaze underneath. They're not too greasy, don't leave a film, instead they leave a sugary glaze of goodness on your fingers and in your mouth. That's this critic's review, until next time, I'll be eating.

I always love supporting small businesses, and K D Donuts definitely deserves the love!…read more I first heard about this place through my coworkers. One person brought in donuts from Rolling Pin Donuts, while another brought donuts from K D Donuts. To my surprise, almost everyone reached for the K D Donuts first! Before work, I decided to pick up two dozen donuts for my team. Within 30 minutes, they were nearly all gone. That alone says a lot! These donuts honestly have a slight edge over Rolling Pin Donuts, which has always been one of my favorite donut shops. Even one of my coworkers, who normally doesn't eat donuts, ended up eating two! She pointed out that they didn't have that greasy taste or overly sweet aftertaste--and I completely agree. The donuts were fresh, light, flavorful, and clearly a hit with the entire team. K D Donuts is officially one of my new favorite spots, and I'll definitely be coming back. Highly recommended if you're in Ventura and looking for delicious donuts while supporting a great local business!

What I care about is Donuts. And I'm here to tell you, these are the Best Donuts in Ventura. I've been a customer here for 24 years now. In that time I've sampled donuts from more than a dozen other places around town and I've never found any better than the donuts from KD Donuts. The donuts here are far superior to Rolling Pin. I'll die on that hill. And don't come at me with Krispy Kreme or any other corporate junk, because hell nah. This is a local, family owned and run business.. You can read all about it in my previous review. It's an interesting backstory. As to why I say these are the Best Donuts in Ventura: The benchmark I use for comparing donuts is a white cake donut with chocolate icing, topped with sprinkles. Whenever I hit up a new donut shop, that's the first thing I try. The one they sell here reigns Supreme! Other highly recommended donuts here are the Apple Fritters, the Buttermilk Bars and the Old Fashioned (Chocolate, Glazed or Plain). I like that the donuts here are traditional donuts. The kind you can take a dozen of to work with you and you can be sure everyone will love. None of that $5/donut ridiculousness over here. Most here are $1.75, including Small Apple Fritters and Small Cinnamon Rolls. The large size of the fritters and cinnamon rolls, along with the Blueberry Fritter, Bear Claws and Filled Donuts will set you back $2.75 each. That's fair! So, if you are looking for some really great donuts and love to support a great little local owned business, I highly recommend you hit up KD Donuts! Mikey C says: Best Donuts in Ventura!

I'm only removing a few stars from today's visit because of an incident that raised some concerns. While ordering boba, one of the cups accidentally fell on the floor. I don't believe it was intentional at all, and I completely understand that accidents happen, especially during busy rushes. However, the cup was placed in the sink instead of the trash, and unfortunately, the second employee was not informed that it had fallen. I happened to be watching when the other worker went to grab that same cup and was about to pour the boba into it. Thankfully, I spoke up and asked not to use the cup, and the original employee clarified the situation right away. I truly believe this was a simple miscommunication, not poor intent. Still, it made me think that if I hadn't been paying close attention, I could have unknowingly been served a drink in a cup that had fallen on the floor, which isn't sanitary. Communication between staff is especially important during busy times so customers don't have to worry about situations like this. I will continue coming here, as I have for the last 10 years, but I hope this serves as gentle feedback. Even during rushes, customers shouldn't be the ones having to catch these things.

They were also nice to me the last few times as well. Which is probably why I don't mind coming back if I'm in the area. They seem to have some new menu items. Savory and or sweet is always a plus... I've also been able to pick up some good to go orders as well. Which is definitely something good :)

We're actually from San Diego and were just visiting Ventura, and it's a bit of a tradition for our family to try a local donut shop whenever we're in a new town. I also grew up in a donut shop for over 30 years, so I'm very particular when it comes to donuts--and Thompson's absolutely blew us away. The service alone deserves a shoutout--everyone was incredibly kind and welcoming, which just made the whole experience even better. And the donuts? So fresh, soft, and perfectly moist. Every bite was flavorful without being overly sweet, which is honestly hard to find. You can tell they really care about what they're making here. This is exactly the kind of spot you hope to stumble upon when traveling--and then wish you had back home. We'll 100% be back next time we're in Ventura. Highly, highly recommend!

WOW. SOME OF THE BEST DONUTS I EVER HAD!!!!…read more Donuts: 10/5. I am not typically a donut girly, but these were out of this world good. I bought my staff an assortment of glaze, strawberry filled donuts, twists, and the long ones (lol) I got one for myself, and holy cow their maple old fashioned is a 10/10!! The inside isn't too doughy, the outside is perfectly crunchy but not super hard, and that's really hard to do lol most old fashion donuts miss the mark for sure. I bit one of the "long John's" and ahhhh SO FLUFFY. Price: 4/5 For 1 dozen it was $19.25 with using card. I feel like that is a bit much for 12 donuts; in LA I get a dozen for 15. . but everything is expensive now. So, it is what it is! lol. All around: 5/5 I will definitely come back. I absolutely loved their service, and donuts . I cannot wait to order a few more maple old fashioned! :)
