    Such a cute do it spot and have been wanting to try it! The lines are out the door in the morning! But it was Memorial Day weekend, So I skipped coming early and decided to go in the late afternoon. They didn't have a huge selection, but I did try the strawberry, blueberry and Crumble donuts. Blueberry was my favorite, OMG sooo yummy! Also tried the Mexican potato salad which tasted like ceviche and was spicy! Service is very friendly and we were there to try the apple fritter. The cashier told us that we can order it and pick it up the next morning and skip the lines. Good to know! Went the next morning and walked right up to the counter and got our fritters. I'll definitely be back to try the coffee and sandwiches.

    Pineapple fritter!  It's huge
    Calli Y.

    I've been here twice and I think it's ok. It's a cute building with a good size outdoor patio. Depending on the weekend, lines do get out the door. I've tried a strawberry donut the first time in the fall. Most everything was sold out by the time we went. It was just ok, didn't taste like really strawberry, more artificial. This time in the summer we went since they still have the pineapple fritters. It's huge!! Was not expecting it to be that size so we split it. Again, it was ok. Didn't have a lot of pineapple so just tasted like fried dough. I wish it had more pineapple flavors. So it's ok. Probably won't be back for donuts but may try sandwiches next time. SYOY!

    Absolutely insane! I'm more of a cake donut person and this place delivered. I tried the strawberry one and blueberry one. Their apple fritters I swear weigh 5lbs. Fun place and vibes to be in and get donuts! There can be a line tho otherwise it's an in and out place. Outdoor seating available :)

    Really bomb breakfast burritos for a great price! Egg, bacon cheese tater tots....yum!!! (And yes Drew is awesome!) Kudos to Amber for yummy donuts

    Get there early because they sell out quick! All the donuts are delicious but I very much enjoyed and recommend the apple fritter, pineapple fritter and cinnamon roll! They are enormous and either take days to finish it you can be nice and share. They are fresh and flavor is perfect. The sandwiches are also very good and made fresh. Great to take down to the lake or on the boat. The place itself has tables outside, plenty of parking and a cute mini golf area.

    Wow! There's a reason they call it dank donuts!! Drew took such good care of us this afternoon. I personally got the old fashioned and blueberry donut and omg!!! They were both sooo good. The service is fast, staff is friendly and food is BOMBBB!!! Can't wait to come back

    Dank DONUTS oh my gosh I can't even begin to explain how cool and interesting this place is. The staff was super friendly and gave us recommendations on what to try so we decided to go with the Apple critter donut. Hands down the best tasting donut we've had especially since we're from out of town. They also have donuts for dogs which I got my dog one and he loved it. If I could recommend anything I would say forsure the apple critter and the mini donuts as well. I got an iced matcha which I will say is on the sweeter side but still delicious. 5 stars from me !

    Donuts were sooooo cute and tasty! Outdoor area was nice. I also liked the merch. The staff was very polite and cool.

    Great experience at Dank Donuts. Enjoyed the place's ambiance. Had great Christmas music, hospitable & helpful service and I liked looking at the decorations. The Rueben exceeded expectations. Wanted more with every bite.

    GIANT fritter!

    Oh Dank Donuts where have you been all my life?This gnarly donut shop boasts the highest elevation in California, creates some of the most delicious and freshest donuts I've ever had the privileged of tasting, and also hosts adult beverages and scrumptious sandwiches. Nestled up high by the slopes of Big Bear is this awesome place that seemingly all the cool kids know about. Luckily my family and I stumbled upon it while out for a walk and just had to stop. Fried dough with sweet glazes make my heart go pitter patter, and Dank did not disappoint. Over the course of 14 days we tried all they had to offer and everything we had was delicious. My favorites were the chocolate long John, giant apple fritter, and veggie sandwich. The service was always friendly and quick, so they do a lot of business with ease. The inside is very small, so it's a squeeze if they are busy, but the outside has plenty of tables to sit and enjoy the gorgeous Big Bear mountains. They have fun coin rides for the kids which kept my little ones busy and happy so we got a few extra minutes to relax. Big Bear has amazing donut game and Dank Donuts does a wonderful job of standing out amidst the crowd to offer unique and fresh tastes and at atmosphere that goes above and beyond your typical donut shop.

    I paid $5.45 for 5 donuts. One of which was a cinnamon roll that was bigger than my head. If you have a sweet tooth for donuts, this is your best bet in big bear. Everything was very good and affordable. I believe I was there during happy hour (4-5pm daily). I think the happy hour is $0.50/donuts during happy hour. The staff were also helpful when I had a question about online ordering (you need to call to order ahead).

    Hot chocolate!!

    Such friendly service! Every trip to Big Bear isn't complete without a visit to Dank Donuts!!

    We had such a great experience at Dank Donuts! The decor is vibrant, fun, and super colorful--it instantly lifts your mood the moment you walk in. The donuts were absolutely delicious--fresh, soft, and full of flavor. Honestly, we came from LA and don't usually find donuts quite like these! Each one felt special and thoughtfully made. And the hot chocolate... just wow. Rich, warm, and perfect for the Big Bear weather--definitely a must-try. Such a cute spot with great vibes and amazing treats. Highly recommend if you're in Big Bear!

    Are the gluten free donuts vegan?

    Anything vegans and gluten free?

    Yes!! A few vegan options when we were last there. Not sure about GF though! And the vegan donuts are very reasonably priced, less than $5 each.

    Hi! Do your gluten free vegan donuts have soy in them? I have a soy allergy :)

    Yes I'm sorry. They do contain soy.

    Is the free wifi reliable for getting work done on the patio?

    Yes! We have wifi for customers... It's sort of like if you were in an airport or hotel... You type in your email address in the browser and have free Wi-Fi when you are at Dank Donuts!

    Any gluten free?

    Yes! They are baked and mini, but still great!

I have eaten some of the best family run small Italian places throughout Orange county and this one rivals all of those. It is absolutely a go-to destination for a proper meal made with love. All with fresh ingredients and presented properly, generous portions served by a small family oriented staff the owner Allison is charming smart and knows true value of quality food and ingredients.

That said, even if the wait time hadn't been an issue, seeing an employee brushing their teeth in the same area where food and drinks are prepared was extremely off-putting.
