    Unique Doughnuts
    Michelle T.

    We came down to Encinitas to grab a bite to eat. Unfortunately, the streets were closed off for a Farmers Market event. Luckily, we found a parking spot nearby and we were able to explore around the area. This time, we were able to walk around to see what else was located nearby. While walking down Coast Highway, we saw some large advertisements for Broad Street Doughnuts. The photos were colorful and we were in the mood to try something new. We had never heard of Broad Street Doughnuts, so we were hoping that these would be delicious. Broad Street Doughnuts is located off of PCH, in the city of Encinitas. This is their only location on the west coast. They have 3 other locations in New Jersey, so it's great that they opened up a shop out here. They share a parking lot with other businesses, so parking is relatively easy. Their doughnuts are made to order. You will not get that stale, day old taste when you take your first bite.They are fried up after you place your order and then the toppings are applied. It beats staring are doughnuts through a case and ordering what may have been sitting there for hours on end. The menu is on the wall and it's totally visual. Each combo is displayed in a vivid photo. You can select from those or from the doughnuts that are near the register. The doughnuts at the front counter are not featured on the visual menu, so you may need to ask about their toppings/combos. I got a classic rainbow sprinkled doughnuts, along with a half glazed and half chocolate sprinkled doughnut. We also ordered a cotton candy doughnut that had what looked like dried out cotton candy. Delicious!!!! These doughnuts were light and fluffy. They were warm to the touch and incredibly fresh. They are a bit smaller in size, when compared to an average size doughnut. They seem prefect in size because you could walk the calories off while exploring around Encinitas. Broad Street Doughnuts was a pleasant surprise. Sometimes the visual representation isn't always an indicator of how good the product will be. In this case, the product lived up to the visual representation. We have passed by Broad Street Doughnuts many times, and finally had an opportunity to stop by. We were pleasantly surprised with both the product and how friendly the staff were with all of the customers. We will definitely be back when we are back in the area!

    Hot and fresh, fresh, fresh donuts here! All donuts are made to order and you can witness them being made. This cute little shop grabbed our attention while we were enjoying a morning drink. We walked right in and were greeted by a friendly face. A large menu with so many choices and 40 flavors to choose from. They also offer vegan and gluten free donuts. Since the donuts are made to order, you can substitute toppings and create your own donut. On the weekends they offer specials as well. We went with an order of nine donuts and as soon as we got them to our table, we all enjoyed one. So delicious coming out of the shop, my mouth was watering with the anticipation of tasting these yummy treats. They are a smaller donut but packed with so much flavor. These donuts were a big hit with our family. Do-Nut miss out on trying these delicious rings of flavor and love!

    Blueberry bliss, Mulberry Street, Island Broad

    The actual yeast donut was really good but I felt like the toppings were lacking! The blueberry bliss was my favorite, the cannoli filling in mulberry street was too ricotta-y and I really didn't like the chocolate chips, and the island broad was only okay.

    North County Donut Tour - Stop 2. Broad Street Dough is everything I want in a donut shop. Open layout where you can see your fresh donuts getting prepared, step by step. Photos, fresh displays and written descriptions so that people of all communication styles can select their preferred donuts. Extremely warm customer service, and a family like environment with multiple generations of folks working together to bring a smile to patrons' faces. I tried the Broad Street and West Side donuts. We were also generously comped a flight of one of their specialties - churro-donuts. All arrived fresh, warm and so delicious. The donuts were a reasonable size and not too sweet. The texture of the churro-donuts was also delightful. It feels like Broad Street cares about serving up fresh, custom creations instead of over-indexing on visual appeal and size over quality as I've experienced at other donut shops. Encinitans are fortunate to have such a high caliber local donut shop in their community.

    Boston creme and banana creme and Nutella
    Libby S.

    I went to Broad Street Donuts last weekend and it totally lived up to the hype. We tried the Boston crème and another one filled with banana cream and Nutella. Both were phenomenal. They make the donuts fresh to order, so it took about five minutes to get ours. I would imagine the wait would be longer depending on how busy they are, but it was absolutely worth the short wait. The staff were super helpful when we were asking about flavors and gave great suggestions. Fair warning, the donuts are huge. But honestly, that just makes them more fun to share or to enjoy twice. They even have doggie donuts that they give for free! My pups loved them too!

    BEST DONUTS IN SAN DIEGO COUNTY (5 stars) Dough not pass an opportunity for one of there donuts. Part of a menu offering 40+ customized, fresh, kosher, and gluten-free/vegan-friendly options. - DONUTS: delicious - PRICE: fair - SERVICE: excellent - AMBIANCE: plaza donut shop I was first introduced years ago during the Taste of Encinitas with their mini donuts. It encouraged me to come back and get the larger donuts when in the area. Location is in a plaza with some decent parking - if not street parking is available. It's a very popular place mostly with local residence and they have eps and flows of people coming and going. To order minis, orders must be place in advance. Their regular sized donuts have a wide selection of flavors - makes it hard to choose. I like my donuts basic and classic and usually stick with the old skool selection. Didn't crave anything from their specialty menu. Went for "a Little Extra" and ordered something stacked and oozy. THE BALBOA ($3.85) - Bavarian Cream, Vanilla. I appreciate the size - how it's a manageable sized doughnut that's not too big nor too small, for some it may be on the smaller side but it's perfect for me. The dough is fluffy like a pillow and soft, light and felt weightless - no density, and has the perfect moisture. The Bavarian cream gave it that little extra moisture but not making it too soggy. Ratio of doughnut to cream was about 50:50. Thought I'd get sick of the cream but was satisfied with it. HIGHLY RECOMMEND I think I'm going to explore their A Little Extra menu more often. Will def be back. Until the next review....

    FINALLY getting to try out broad street donuts!! its been on my list FOREVER!! these donuts are made to order, similar to duck donuts in OC. the menu is a bit overwhelming but they have photos for ppl like me LOL..imma visual gal :D they offer a box of mini's: 9, 25, 35 regular donuts: single, box of 6, 9, 12 i ordered a box of 9, def order more than i needed but they were still really tasty the next morning! i got to pick a few specialty ones, which were $1 extra, donuts are either gluten free, vegan or both! super cute shop, friendly staff and delicious treats! seating avail inside and outside my order was ready before i was done snapping all my photos. def recommend stopping in and/or bookmarking broad street! you will not be disappointed. parking: shared lot, no issues.

    Chocolate, Glazed and West Park

    My husband and I adore a good donut, so while visiting Encinitas, we decided to try Broad Street Dough Co. Upon entering we were greeted by staff who were friendly and helpful. The menu is fairly big and can be slightly overwhelming. They had display donuts to view which only added to that feeling of "what should I order?". After much debate we decided on "Old School" glazed and chocolate donuts, the BDSC Specialty S'mores Galore donut and a "Little Extra" West Park donut. The donuts all had the same base, the toppings and frostings are what makes them different. This was slightly disappointing as we were hoping to experience different flavor profiles and textures. The donuts were definitely fresh and warm and tasted delicious. We would love to return so we can try four new donuts to experience.

    The glazed gluten free donut was soo good! Tasted like cake! Super quick made to order as well!

    Nitro Cold Brew, Brunch Broad, Chai Town, Creamsicle, Cinnamon Sugar, Island Broad, Nantucket
    Brianna R.

    SO. GOOD. I stopped by on a drive back from SD to LA and so glad I did! The donuts are customized fresh to order, which means they come out warm and delicious. I love that they're a little smaller than standard donuts because it meant I could sample more flavors! The nitro cold brew was great, too. As for the donut flavors I tried... BRUNCH BROAD - 10/10 A perfect donut. I grabbed an extra one to go for my boyfriend (even though he's not a huge donut fan - I was sure he'd like it). He ate it the next day and loved it so much he took a picture of the packaging so we could come back, haha. The maple scent is strong and intoxicating! NANTUCKET - 9/10 Also amazing. The warm caramel and sea salt were absolutely delicious. CREAMSICLE - 8/10 A really unique and delicious donut! I'd order this one again for sure. CINNAMON SUGAR - 7/10 Classic and delicious. CHAI TOWN - 5/10 A little disappointed in this one. I got a lot of super sweet vanilla icing flavor and couldn't really taste the chai spices. ISLAND BROAD - 4/10 Not for me, unfortunately. I absolutely love lemon desserts but the lemon flavor tasted artificial :( Will absolutely be back next chance I get and can't wait to try more flavors!

    Randomly stopped in while heading down the coast. The husband was hungry for some breakfast and it was the first result. We ordered our own individual donuts and were absolutely surprised these are freshly made to order. We opened the box in the cute little outdoor courtyard and the donuts were steaming and smelling absolutely delicious. We loved every single one and immediately starting sending our recommendation texts to our family. The cashier quickly explained how it works, the donuts of the day and pointed out photos of the donuts behind us, ya know, cuz sometimes the picture is enough to order it.

    First time visiting. I just got one donut to try. I ordered the Nantucket. The donut cost $2.65. It was served freshly made and still warm. The glaze was so thin that I couldn't taste any caramel flavor. I have had better made to order donuts at another donut place. I don't think my donut was made correctly. It was basically tasteless. It was also small. Certainly was not worth waiting 15 minutes for nor paying $2.65. The glaze was basically missing.

    We stopped here on a Saturday afternoon based on recommendations that we try these donuts. Well, I was underwhelmed. The donuts are "made to order", and there is a menu for selecting the donuts you order. We chose six different donuts plus two gluten-free ones. I was hoping for some French crullers -- the light airy, fluted, ring-shaped glazed doughnut extruded from choux pastry -- in the mix, but everyone was a dense cake donut, including the "filled" donuts. And the donuts were considerably smaller than expected. Quite disappointing. Just not my style of donut. I'm glad we tried them, and service was great, but I don't think we'll be back.

They don't always take the time to explain things. To be honest it's more like they just want to take your order and move on to the next customer. I'd give it a solid 4 out of 5. Great drinks and quality beans make it worth visiting, but the higher prices and inconsistent service keep it from being a regular favorite for me. If you love good coffee and don't mind paying a premium with okay service, it's still worth checking out.
