    Now I know what all these people are talking about this lovely Blinkie's donuts and the shop. Lately, I have been having a lot of sweet cravings. No, I am NOT pregnant. :-) just cravings like most people have. Walked in this morning around 10am & was greeted by couple of employees. Both very nice, sweet, helpful and kind. They have so many different donuts, croissants, sandwiches, hot and cold coffee, espresso, latte, bottled drinks and more.. They have an indoor and outdoor seating and the place is super cute and very clean, chill and you get what you pay for. I got a dozen donuts from them and tried one on my way home and it was just decadent, fresh, fluffy and the frosting isn't overly sweet. Has parking and a restroom for their customers! Will definitely return next time I am in the Encino area. Established back in 1960 & Winnie/the owner of the place took over ownership in February of 2023. Give this donut shop a try and you will be very satisfied!!:-))

    Had no idea there was a Blinkies here. As a fan of the one in Woodland Hills, def had to check it out since I was the area. Came past noon so I'm sure the selection would be slim but there was a good amount. The salted caramel caught my eye but I went with my go-to of the maple old fashioned. Absolutely delicious. The one who greeted and helped me was absolutely lovely. The lot was packed but luckily i had parked across the street at the commons. Nice inside with a good amount of seating for inside and outside.

    We stopped by for coffee and ordered the egg & ham croissants. While the presentation was lovely, the flavors felt a bit simple for our personal taste and didn't seem quite as fresh as we were hoping. The coffee also wasn't our favorite on this visit, so overall the food and drinks didn't fully stand out to us this time. That said, the space is truly beautiful and creates such a calm, inviting atmosphere to sit and relax. The service was especially warm, kind, and attentive, which we genuinely appreciated and made the experience feel welcoming. With so many glowing reviews, we'd absolutely be happy to come back to try the donuts and see what everyone is raving about. Hoping to have an even better experience next time

    Yum!

    Date: July 20, 2025 Been seeing Blinkie's pop up on my Yelp home page for a while now and finally had the time to check it out! Stopped by around 8:30am and there were two other couples there. Super cute interior with plenty of tables and a long bench along the walls for seating. They don't have any specific pricing listed or a 'menu' so it's basically you pay per donut you choose and they'll tell you the price afterward. I believe 'regular donuts' were 1.95$ and 'special donuts' were 3.95$. They also sell croissant sandwiches and coffee. Although the donuts were good, I can't justify spending 4$ on a donut that's equally as good as a 2$ donut. That being said, I did enjoy our selection and will be back to try the other selections. Ladies were also super sweet. Thanks for a great first try!

    Thank you Yelp for this find! Great to see Blinkie's open up a bit closer to where I live. Took my son with me and they could not have been anymore sweeter with him. Great service, and even greater donuts! I will definitely be back for my donut fix!

    Sausage and egg croissant sandwich.  It was large and very filling! Eggs were fluffy and they use actual sausage links for their sausage.
    Estevan F.

    Their donuts are good, tried apple fritter and cinnamon glazed twist, so good! Sandwich was very filling, add some hot sauce to it and it is very tasty. What I enjoyed most was the service. Both times I visited and was helped by different people. Both were so friendly and helpful. Enjoy!

    Nutella donut, jelly, horchata, chocolate glazed and old fashioned

    Great selection. Friendly & fast service. In same complex as cvs and Starbucks. Perfect place for a special treat or custom orders

We ordered the bouquet burrito and chilaquiles. Food came out fairly quickly, and they even package your food in a to-go box in case you have leftovers to take home. The burrito was huge, flavorful and generously filled. The chilaquiles were tasty as well. Overall, we were happy with our quick breakfast bite. There's a communal table along with other indoor seating plus some outdoor seating available too.

Parking is a real struggle, very limited lot, so be prepared to circle around or park in the nearby residential area and walk. Drinks: I ordered the White Chocolate Lavender latte, sweet and floral, but my husband found it too sugary. He got the Black Heart latte, which he said was strong and bold, though I could barely taste anything in it (probably because my drink was so sweet, it killed my palate!). So maybe order based on your sweetness tolerance. Food: We shared a butter croissant, which was just okay, my husband called it "plain," and I'd agree. Nothing special. Seating: The inside was packed, but we managed to grab a spot at a long communal table. They do have a few outdoor seats too if you prefer fresh air. Overall, it's a cozy spot with a cool interior, but come with patience for parking and know your drink order might lean extreme one way or the other. We'll probably give it one more try with different drinks.

They make daily, from-scratch pastries in small batches, ranging from mochi donuts, butter croissants, and custard-filled donuts to fresh baguette sandwiches, salads, and tons of drink selections like fresh juices, mineral waters, and lattes. The service is super friendly and incredibly fast. The system is so fun and easy: you just walk in, grab a tray and a pair of tongs, handpick your desired pastries, and head to the front. You can eat there or take them to go in a box. If you order a sandwich, they can heat it up on-site for you so you get a cheesy, warm, toasty meal. For this visit, we tried: World Cup Special Donut: A custard-filled donut topped with chocolate and shaped like a soccer ball in honor of the World Cup going on right now. The egg custard filling was so addictive and creamy--absolutely amazing! Almond Croissant: Stuffed with almond paste, covered in buttery, toasted almond slices, and dusted with powdered sugar. The flavor was fantastic! The inside could have been just a tiny bit more moist, and I always wish for more of that delicious almond filling, but it was still extremely flavorful. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating. Sitting outside is especially nice since you're facing busy Ventura Boulevard, making it a perfect spot to shade-sit and people-watch. Plus, it's located in a great shopping plaza, so there's plenty of parking. My only critique is that it is definitely a little overpriced, making it more of a "once-in-a-while" treat rather than a daily habit. Still, it's a truly fantastic spot if you want high-quality, fresh-baked bread and pastries~~~
