Yelp reviews can be deceiving . Second time here looking for great donuts. Went here based on yelp reviews and was disappointed. On the old fashioned donut it may look like chocolate but wow barely tasted like chocolate. Went for the duck donuts and other cool stuff in the review pictures and was sorely disappointed. Service was fine. Ambiance strip mall donut shop. If you want knock out donuts this is not the place. Go to Peterson's!!!!

This is one time Yelp let us down. We were hoping for fresh, interesting donuts, and Crispy Donuts seemed like it would fit the bill. Unfortunately, it did not. We tried a few different options, including glazed, chocolate old-fashioned, and donut holes, but all tasted like they had been sitting out for a while. The glazed and the donut holes were rubbery, and the old-fashioned fell short on chocolate flavor. Service was fine, but nothing special, and that was my overall opinion of the place.

The donuts here are very good. There is a very decent variety all kinds of choices. Even one that is made out of a croissant. If it looks delicious I got one they give free samples to taste them. They were delicious store was clean. The price was good. I got a lot of stuff for a bunch of hungry teenagers. Staff was very quick to help me. I was in and out in a few minutes. Thank you.

$20 worth of donuts

So sad to post this. This has been our go to when in San Marcos but now we'll think twice before coming back. I went to purchase a dozen donuts. Waited in line, it was moving fairly quickly. I pick out my dozen and go to pay. The line behind me was backing up so I get my money out to pay quickly. I pay with cash because it's a family owned business and I thought I was doing a good thing to reduce their credit card fees. I have my $20 bill in my hand and the girl behind the counter looks at me and tells me the donuts are $20. Hmmm. That's a suspiciously nice round number. We've been coming here for years. YEARS. And I've never felt ripped off. Dozen donuts start at $15.50. The donuts weren't specialty ones. I didn't ask because the line was super long. Now I don't want to go back. And if of my family members do, we'll watch the receipt more closely. Real bummer.

Donuts were very fresh and service was great, not a place to sit for any more than two but I think it adds character to the place

Is this the same crispys as the one in Chula Vista?

I think they're a small business but I will ask next time if they have other locations.

Is this place open during construction?

Absolutely. Ownership not pleased about how their landlord handling the signage but they are ready to serve up. Was just there and will come more often to support them through the construction! Great donuts.

Gluten free options available?

No :(
