    Holy mother of donuts!!! I have this coupon app and it says after a certain time they have a deal is a few places in Danny's donuts is one! I said one day I'm gonna try it. I just happen to be at Starbucks and I noticed it was right next-door so I ordered my coffee. Just walked over to see what they had.! when I first opened the door there was a family leaving and the gentleman said we will definitely be back. This is an amazing place so that was one point there as I was looking through the donuts. The gentleman gave me the warmest welcome!! I made my selection and he handed me this freshly made WARM chocolate bar, and I couldn't even walk out without trying it and let me tell you there's no place in Monterey County that holds a candle to this place.

    First time trying Danny's Donut Shop today Great price, service was good Donuts: Light, soft and yummy Churro donut holes: They were light and tastes good warm! Blueberry Cake Donut: I'm not a fan of the glazed part but I loved the soft texture and flavor inside Glazed Cronut: My first time having a Cronut (I'll have to try the sugar covered Cronut since I'm not a fan of glazed lol) Honorable Mention - Guava filled donut My Favorite, thus far! No glaze or sugar on the outside and you definitely won't miss it!

    Limited selection, donuts don't look anything special I would be fine with that but what was a disappointment was the service , staff isn't friendly they don't greet you as you walk win , they almost seem upset to have customers And the donuts are way over priced Winchells still wins

    We love Danny's! They always have fresh and various varieties of unique donuts everyday. We got to try fresh donuts straight out of the fryer, incredible! What a treat! Same owners as Monterey donuts in Prunedale and Monterey. They're still developing their menu and are taking suggestions and trying new things. We asked them for Ube donuts and they gladly made them, they're so good! I also asked for a whipped cream filled donut as those are my favorite. Which he made for me right on the spot! They also have cronuts which are my friends favorite. There's always something new in the case. They have recently added Boba drinks which I haven't tried yet.

    Nice and fluffy as usual and those new Malasada donuts are so good I gotta try every flavor!

    As soon as my daughter and I walked in from the cold rainy day we were greeted by employees and even patrons at Daany's Donut Shop located next to Starbucks.

    Sticker box was unexpected but oh so cute.

    I've already been here 3x in the last week! The selection seems limited but I don't mind, the doughnuts taste fresh and delicious. I believe they are just selling them as fast as they are making them which is great! They have "free coffee with a doughnut purchase" which is nice too. (Or you can hit up the Starbucks next door) Next time I'm going savory and trying the ham and cheese croissants. They also have Boba drinks and breakfast sandwiches on the menu. Another little thing that makes me happy here is the little sticker box they have by the register. Just little fun stickers for free. I will be by to drop off some stickers and add to the fun.

    Came in around 2:20pm and there was a sign out front that said "hot and fresh batch at 2pm" but the selection was minimal, I don't know if it's because there was a rush or if I misunderstood but yeah. The service was attentive and quick. I wish I had asked more questions. I think what they could do to improve is to either specifically place "regular", "deluxe", and "fancy" in certain spots OR/AND make cute little signages for each donut explaining the name, type, and maybe allergens. I was gonna go with a deluxe dozen but they didn't have too many options so I went with regular for today.

    Mother's Day weekend we stopped into this donut shop for a little sweet treat before we went home…read moreand the service was amazing. The donuts were fresh not greasy. We had a overall great experience. Service from the young lady helping us was absolutely stellar. I had made an appointment to get my nails done as my wonderful nail lady gets down just a few doors down and I had taken my mom with me to get a pedicure while I got my nails done. We decided to stop in this location to get a sandwich when originally we were gonna stop at the bagel place, but we remembered how absolutely sweet she was at the counter The in-house made croissants were absolutely to die for the sandwiches were filling and plentiful, and the blueberry donuts were probably the best I've ever tried and I am sort of a blueberry donut connoisseur being that they're my favorite lol it is a very old-school Classic donut shop vibe - very clean very inviting with Space to sit. You're all set here. Don't be surprised if you go and you are so taken back by how unbelievably kind and sweet this young lady is, and I have to mention an incredibly hard worker. She told us she is there from five in the morning till five at night Please support this locally owned an operated business after you try the food you won't regret it.

My personal favorite is the non glazed old fashioned, never too greasy and always crispy. The blended drinks are consistent, and while it is what you expect from a donut shop, she's willing to scale back on the sugar if you'd like. Solid community spot, even if they run out often, it is our go to spot for weekend treats and office Friday pick me ups.

    I believe this yelp site is in desperate need of update as the business name does not reflect the…read moreproducts sold. To be clear, yes, they sell donuts, but no, they do not sell ice cream; and, furthermore, it feels as though the donuts only exist because of the lottery tickets and scratchers that they sell as those have a better selection than donuts. That said, I did purchase a donut from their meager selection in the afternoon. Not sure if that selection was limited by the time of day, or simply reflects all that they have but the donut was decent, I believe it was called a cinnamon crunch, but the remaining selection of donuts were a small collection of cake and old-fashioned. Still not sure why ice cream is listed in the name as the sign outside the business does not reflect that either. I went to purchase my donut only to learn that they only accept credit cards for purchases over three dollars. Good to know my donut was under three dollars, disappointing if you fail to bring cash they have a decent sized sitting area in the back behind the lottery section. Ironically, I feel as though it is more generous than the area used to sell their tickets and donuts, the attendant was neither nor cordial. Experience was less than memorable. The only reason I chose to do a review to help others avoid a similar disappointment. My final advice, walk across the street buy some box donuts from Grocery Outlet and you'll be similarly pleased.

    Cinnamon crunch, doughnut, or so I believe. Decent but probably the only one worth trying in the display.

First of the cafeteria has a wide range of lunch option that are all delicious! I normally get the burritos or tortas but my partner has also tried some of the salads they offer and everyone has been amazing. But the baked goods are really where this place shines. I'm always impressed with the large variety of options that the bakery has. And while I haven't tried them all, every single one that I have had has been absolutely amazing! I would have to say that my top pick however would be their Tres Leches cups. It is absolutely divine and is hands down the best Tres Leches I have ever had no contest. They also do wedding cakes. I had my wedding this year in Monterey and they were able to provide an absolutely beautiful two layered cake with a perfectly spiced carrot cake as the bottom layer and a wonderfully moist Tres Leches cake as the top layer. Absolutely everyone was raving about how good the cake was!

I was on day 3 of a 10 day challenge enhanced way of eating so the "Moss Boss" was off my target site(for now). The AMAZING Manager Elizabeth(hope I remembered) was Super Pleasant and kind for this Very energetic and inquisitive monkey. So patient and informative with ALLLL my questions, and to boot, She makes the best smoothies. I have been making them(smoothes) for 20 years(since before I was born) so I am SUPER picky and have Highhhh standards....
