    Maple donut, lemon poppyseed donut, and then the donut at the back with two bites out of it, is the lavender English tea donut.

    The donuts were delicious. The donuts have NO seed oils, they are Fried in palm oil and the glazes use olive oil. The guy at the register was very helpful and Friendly. The atmosphere is in construction. They will be having a stage With an eatery for things like burritos and such in a couple of months. I'm very excited that they've moved to this location as it is easier for me to get to. Sometimes i just have to have a doughnut. Today I got a lavender English breakfast donut that is partly eaten in the photo, a maple donut and a lemon poppyseed donut

    I was excited to try out Donut Farm after hearing about it being the best place to get vegan donuts! Came by around noon on a weekend. Donut Farm is located in a small shopping strip. Parking is limited but I was able to snag a spot despite it being the weekend. Service was pretty fast. Took a little bit to decide, but once I knew which ones I wanted to try, the guy was fast at boxing and checking out. The donuts range in pricing from $3 and up. Their fancier donuts are $4.50 a pop. There was a sign noting that all donuts are made vegan, organic, and nut free. I tried the plain glazed ($3), meyer lemon ($3.50), and matcha ($3.50) donuts. My favorite was the meyer lemon which had a nice bright citrus flavor. The plain glazed were good as well. Would not recommend the matcha one though - it didn't taste like matcha green tea at all unfortunately. The donuts were pretty good, especially as vegan baked goods. I wouldn't go out of my way just to grab donuts here, but it was a nice treat.

    FINALLY we came in for Sunday brunch as. group! We had different items from the brunch menu plus the donuts and coffee. What a great way to spend the last Sunday of 2025! I forgot to take photos of our brunch items but they were awesome! Japanese curry tofu wrap (or you can get it in a bowl)! Breakfast burger and burrito, chicken and waffle or just waffle. Always vegan. The donuts are organic and made with olive oil. We will be back!

    lemon poppyseed donut

    LOVED my vegan lemon poppyseed donut from here! Well-fried without an oily taste, and just the right size to pair with a morning coffee. The glaze was flavorful, and I was really tempted by the other flavors! This place has cute diner-style seating and lovely staff :)

    First time at the actual location - only tried about 247 times at other cafes who supply them. Of course the biggest advantage is that they have much more assorted variety, especially if you're like me and like to try non-conventional flavors. They also sell coffee for those wanting to complement their baked goods with something to help wash it down!

    Curry Tofu Burrito

    I'm giving 2 stars because of the brunch food. Just an FYI I'm a vegetarian and I'm in the process of cutting out all animal products, therefore, I'm trying out vegan spots and cook a lot of vegan food. I also ended up taking my sister so she could see what vegan food is about. 1. My sister had the breakfast burrito. The breakfast burrito was an absolute texture nightmare, the coconut rice was gross and mushy, the tofu was completely bland, the random spicy curry sauce was unblended & completely overpowered everything. Just really one of the worst burritos I've had in my life. She couldn't get past two bites before throwing it out. I also bit it, and I agree with everything my sister said. 2. I got the tempeh reuben sandwich and it was equally bad with bland soggy fries. It was edible and I finished half of the sandwich with a ton of hot sauce but I threw out the other half. I legitimately could not finish it. I think king oyster mushrooms would be a better substitute for the "bacon". 3. The donuts are AMAZING & deserve to stand alone. The lemon one was absolutely incredible. If I would've only purchased the donuts I would've given Donut farm 5 stars. There's a price range from $3.00, $3.50, $4.00, and $4.50. I think they're reasonable prices for how good they were. The only one that was okay was the chocolate coconut. In conclusion, the food needs a lot of work. I know this is a small business, but please taste the food that comes out . The sandwich was $18 and the burrito was $16. I never complain about the prices from small business owners because I love to support but it was expensive for the quality of food I received. The service was also okay, it felt like everyone was stressed lol, I'm not complaining bc I know we all have our days but this was my first time at Donut Farm and I wish my experience would've been more pleasant so I'd be willing to give it another chance.

    Philz Coffee Donut wow so good!

    You must be lying to me. This was one of the best vegan donuts I've ever had didn't know it was vegan until well after it was finished. The staff was friendly and great to talk to. She helped me make a very difficult decision get a coffee, donut or a maple donut. Just so everyone knows the answer moving forward should be both. I ended up getting a coffee donut and absolutely loved it. It taste delicious. And then I got to take a small bite of maybe a dozen other donuts. Places, fun and worth going in and checking out not too loud so you can definitely sit down and enjoy your donut afterwards if you would like .

    What days of the week are raised donuts available?

    Friday, saturday, sunday

    Are you still doing drop offs at Philz or any cafes in San Francisco or the peninsula?

    You can get our donuts at Nourish Cafe, Ritual Roasters, Farleys on Potrero Hill, and at our ferrybuilding store when it re-opens 1/3/22. Feel free to request our donuts at Philz locations, but they paused their orders in 2020.

    Weekend brunch is gone?

    For now, yes

    Are there any gluten free donuts available? I tried to call but it looks like the phone is disconnected and I could not confirm from the menu...

    Pepples does NOT offer gluten free donuts at this time. Check out their new website:…

Where I found room for improvement was the other. The salads were expensive and not quite worthy. The Caesar was pretty disappointing, and I love me a Caesar salad. It didn't have enough dressing, resulting in a dry and flavorless salad. The gelato was delicious, but also an extremely small scoop for $7. The place is cute. It has some outdoor seating but the star is the downstairs area. We were a bigger party, and were able to snag a last minute reservation for 8 people in the much more casual upstairs space. The downstairs is smaller, but very mid-century modern classy with a great wooden bar, perfect for date night. Back to the pizza: It's really good. The pepperoni is delicious. We also went with a speciality pie with cured meats, arugula and hot honey and it was truly a great pizza. They offer a variety of crusts - NY style, Detroit, Sicilian and Grandma. I only tried NY style and it was so good but the others look decadently good. Prices are similar to other pizza spots, so you're paying $28-35ish for a large. They do have small available, as well. Overall, a really great downtown Berkeley spot. Great pizza, great for families, and while space is somewhat limited, it's still great for groups.

We found it very tasty, but paying over $25 for this on DoorDash--certainly not worth the price even though we really enjoyed it. The spicy chicken parm sandwiches were not good. The chicken breast was flabby, and came across like it was one of those frozen cooked Tyson jobs. I would be very surprised if they actually breaded chicken breast, fried it, and made the sandwich with that. It was mushy, and the breading was like paste on the chicken. Pretty awful. They charge extra for sauce, which is a little much, given that we paid $21 for each sandwich. But we figured out pretty quickly why they do this: there was hardly any sauce on the sandwiches. And precious little cheese. We each ate half of our sandwich and figured we doctor the leftovers up the next day with a jar of Rao's and a bag of shredded Italian cheese. That helped, but nothing could save that chicken. The meatballs. We paid $15 for four, and we had high hopes, but they were so mushy that they fell apart in the sauce, and I couldn't tell what was sauce and what was meatballs. The only flavor that came across was fennel. Why any meatball should be so fennel-forward strikes me as bizarre. We got what we thought were pretty basic things, and they were fails.

We came on a Tuesday night and yet the restaurant eventually got busier through the night. My favorite dishes were: Yellowtail Sashimi and Corn Riblets are both great appetizers and full of flavor.

The mussels themselves were tasty and appreciated that they were able to leave out the chorizo. However, I wish that they brought a spoon and there was more broth. I tried some of my mom's veggie burger and the red color from the beets made it stand out from the usual veggie burger. The fries tasted homemade. I had a slice of the pizza and while I like the ingredients themselves, the combination just didn't do it for me. The crust was good though! We also shared a green goddess salad, which was tasty. The desserts looked amazing but we had no room! Service was friendly and our waitress made good recommendations. Can park on the side streets or the garage. Restaurant was not noisy.
