    Overhyped. Came here on Jan 3, 2026, parking is a bit tight so be careful. Bought a blueberry fritter, matcha glazed and ube glazed and the total was $15 which is INSANE. Cashier said cash only and never offered to heat it up, went right back to talking on the phone with his wife or girlfriend back home. The blueberry fritter was decent, just the right amount of sweetness. The ube and matcha glazed were awful. It was just regular flavored sugar put on top. Donut was definitely old and sitting.

    Pretty insane variety. Fruity pebble stuff stripped frosting things. I'm a basic old foggie I like Maple bars. This one was solid. Fluffier on the inside but still tasted deep fried or something. Huge collection, short line, moderate prices. I think our 4 doughnuts were $18? Don't live here, would recommend it but don't think I'll come back.

    Fresh Apple Fritter to go

    I so wish this place had been around when I was pregnant and craving a glazed donut in the middle of the night! Chuck's Donuts is SO SO good. I usually stop by on my way home around 6 AM after an overnight shift, and their Apple Fritter is my absolute favorite -- it's huge, still warm, and honestly impossible to resist. I end up picking at it in the car, and it's gone before I even make it home! The people who work there are super friendly, the place is well lit and I love that they even have a vegan section. The only thing to note is they accept cash or Venmo only (no credit cards), but it makes sense since most orders are small. Totally worth going a little out of my way when the craving hits!

    Apple Fritter

    Came here on a Saturday night. We we're 3rd in line but plenty of donuts out! They had already run out of blueberry fritters (around 6:45pm). We got 2 apple fritters instead and a regular glaze donut. Loved both donuts! Would highly recommend coming here.

    I purchased 2 ube donuts and 2 lemon fillings, each $5!

    Out of spontaneouity, or more like out of impulse last Sunday morning to relive the deliciousness of a lemon filled donut, I decided to check this shop out again. (Since the closest shop in Belmont is not as good or doesn't have much variety as this location). Plus the last time a bought a dozen variety for my coworkers back in 2021, everyone in clinic loved the donuts! I arrived around 1230 p.m. and was lucky to be served right away and surprised to find two more donuts of the Ube flavor left, I snatched these up as they looked interesting! Also, the man behind the counter made the lemon filled donuts for me. Apparently the flavors I chose were specialties and cost altogether, $20 for 4 donuts! Whatever, I thought and bought them anyway and was not disappointed. The Ube flavored donut was delicious, crispy as one other Yelper commented (but only bc of the dry frosting on top of the donut). Either my taste buds were off, but I couldn't tell if this actually tasted like Ube, but it was delicious nevertheless. The lemon flavored donut was my favorite. I know the filling is an artificial lemon flavor, but that didn't matter as it was still my favorite Lol. Getting here can be tricky; you're either coming in from the main road (Woodside) or if at the intersection you make a right or left on Orchard Avenue, there is this tight entrance with low clearance you can drive your car through. The parking lot is plenty, but shared with other businesses. Imagine coming here during rush hour! So try to go first thing in the morning or maybe on the weekend? Stop by and get your donut fix at Chuck's Donuts!

    Ordered takeout, donuts ere delicious, the maple with whipped cream was crazyyy, didn't know what to expect but they did it justice, id do it again lol.

    SO GOOD!!! Ube, cronut, jelly, Oreo. I went in for 1 and ended up buying 5. Very friendly service too!

    I go here because it is just physically most convenient for me and I am pretty happy every time. They are open 24 hours and for being 24 hours, the donuts are pretty fresh. They get PM sun in the donuts and even then, they dont taste like they have been sitting out. They are a little expensive but what isn't these days? I will come back and be happy but not super thrilled

    Chuck's Donuts at night

    If you're craving donuts late at night, this is the spot! Chuck's Donuts is open 24 hours/day. The donuts are continuously made so there's always a full selection of favorites! My go-to is the cruller, which usually sells out quickly at other places but they had several when I stopped by on a late night. A donut a cup of hot chocolate hit the spot when I was here with some friends the other night. Definitely a popular late night delivery choice for many. I heard the DoorDash chimes ring several times when I was there. Sure the place does show its age but don't let that deter you from visiting. It has a classic nostalgic feel to it. There are a few tables and booths available for seating. If you're feeling lucky, they also have two lottery ticket vending machines.

    11/17/24 Yup! Still the yummiest donuts. I honestly just get donut jokes but you can get lots of very exotic donuts here! Open 24 hours

    Ube Donut with Toasted Coconut
    Kris C.

    Chuck's Donuts is open 24/7, so you can come by anytime. We had the blueberry, ube coconut crunch, and the white chocolate Fruity Pebble donut. All of them were fresh and tasty. The blueberry was soft and not too sweet. The ube coconut had a nice crunch, and the Fruity Pebble one was fun and sweet with a light glaze. Fresh donuts come out around 11am, so that's a good time to go if you want them warm. They also have coffee, milk, and soft drinks. You can get chai, cappuccino, espresso, smoothies, and freezes. They had sandwiches on the menu too. The donut shop has free wifi and feels like a regular donut shop smells like coffee and pastries. They only take cash, but you can pay with Zelle or Venmo, which was helpful. Service was fast and friendly. It's a great spot if you're craving donuts day or night.

    Creme Brle Donut - 7/10 very sweet
    Stacey I.

    I love a good donut place that sells a huge variety of gourmet donuts, and of course the classics! Another bonus is that thankfully, Chuck's Donuts is open 24/7 so whenever you're craving some yummy donuts, head over to Chuck's! **VENMO, ZELLE, OR CASH ONLY!!** Overview: Donuts: 9/10 Service: 10/10 Ambiance: 7/10 Parking: 10/10 Favorite Donuts: Ube Toasted Coconut Ube Matcha Donut DONUTS: 9/10 Chuck's Donuts options do not dissapoint and I always get so indecisive with what I want because there is always something new to try. However, I always go for their Ube donuts for sure. The Ube flavor is not prominent but it definitely still has the ube essence that is challenging to achieve. I love the quality of Chuck's Donuts and they are not too dense. I am not a fan of heavy dense thick donuts. Chuck's has a perfect dough to donut icing ratio. I will say that some of the donuts are too sweet but it really depends on what you get. There are also interesting savory donuts like hot cheetos or bacon maple donuts which is cool. SERVICE: 10/10 I have only gone to Chuck's Donuts during night time and considering how late we go, I would think the staff are tired but they are always nice and energetic. I appreciate that a ton! AMBIANCE: 7/10 The ambiance is just like any local donut shop! The place is a bit dingy but honestly, the dingy donut shops are always the ones that hit the most with good donuts haha PARKING: 10/10 Located inside the plaza, there is no struggle on finding parking.

    Chocolate iced. Happy Doughnut Appreciation Day!
    BonBon S.

    I've gone to Chuck's more times than I can count and have obviously been a fan of their donuts. The reasons for 3 stars: (1) sometimes the oil doesn't taste fresh, (2) parking is abysmal, and (3) two donuts cost $9 on my most recent visit. I'll still come back, though. :D

    How many varieties of vegan donut are available daily (usually)?

    How is the flavor selection at night? Do they have the same selection of donuts at night as they do in the morning?

    I once went in at around 9pm on a week day and they still had a huge selection! I didn't notice any donuts missing.

    Do your donuts contain eggs?

    While I'd be shocked if most of their donuts don't have eggs, they do have vegan options (which wouldn't have eggs).

Decor is cute but sleek, vibes are calm, bar seating by window and a few small tables with seats. Ordering is fast at the kiosk front desk which doesn't seem to have a cashier. Lots of tasty drink options with milk choices and customizable sweetness and ice level - much appreciated! Cakes were delicious and filled with freshly whipped cream. We had the hojicha and biscoff ones. Not incredibly busy - a lot of orders were takeout. Cons: A lot of things were out of stock by 1pm but maybe this is due to Mother's Day. Pricey but the items were high quality. Store is a small footprint with limited utilities (no WiFi, bathroom was temporarily out of order). Parking is very difficult- it's on el Camino so the cars are unforgiving if you're trying to parallel park, and the road parallel by a block is not much better. It has an alley and a very cramped space in the back for a lot. Expect to walk.
