There was a woman behind me that told me this has been her favorite donut place in Ventura and has been coming here for 20 yrs. The cashier confirmed it been the same owner for 20 yrs. I got a maple bar and a chocolate old fashion. As other comments have said, these donuts do not have that strange oil aftertaste that some shops do. They are also sweet but not overly sweet. Maple bars will always own my heart so it was my favorite of the two but the chocolate old fashion was also really tasty. Both were soft and freshly baked tasting. They had some really large donuts and specialty ones but you can't go wrong with a basic maple bar or old fashion. Yes, the donuts are going to cost you $2.50+ per donut but just like everything going up in price, it's only expected that a small donut shop ought to do the same. I am more than happy to support local businesses especially when the product you receive is good quality.

The lady behind the counter was super nice and helpful.

The donuts are AMAZING. If you're a fan of fluffy, soft, doughy donuts, with a thick coating- this is definitely the spot for you. Everything is always fresh and delicious, and it's easy to see why they have such loyal customers. I also wanted to mention that I noticed their posted hours may be slightly incorrect. Their current hours are Monday-Friday from 6:00 AM to 11:00 AM and Saturdays from 6:00 AM to 12:00 PM. They are also cash only, so come prepared! Support this local gem--you won't regret it!

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!

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.

FRENCH CRULLERS FOR THE WIN!…read more My original review of this long time Oxnard establishment (been here since I was a kid and this strip mall had the Carriage Square Movie Theater!) was 11 years ago! Has anything changed??? Nope! STILL, the best donuts in Oxnard! Located next to IHOP & KFC in the Lowe's Strip Mall, the smell of fresh donuts with a friendly staff to greet you, puts a smile on your face and helps perk up your senses up properly! Often times there is a line in the morning (proof of their popularity), however, it moves quickly. Their donuts are well crafted, but there's not just donuts are on the menu. There's also croissant sammies, bagel sammies, & breakfast burritos if you so choose, but I gotta say, their true specialty is... THE FRENCH CRULLER: THEE BEST CRULLER you will have from coast to coast! I have not yet had something that tops this creation here! Outer shell has nice crispness to it, that is rarely matched by other donutteries, and yet the inner core is oh so pillowy soft!!! Mmmmm! The glaze and/or coatings (pink (strawberry because it's Oxnard?), white, chocolate, maple or glazed) are not excessively sweet. Such a great donut! If I could, I'd eat these every day of my life! VERY EASY RECOMMENDATION! Want a donut fix in Oxnard? This IS The Spot! Enjoy ;)

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!
