Love their cake donuts. I bought the chocolate cake donut with nuts on the top. It was so delicious and not overly sweet. The lady was so friendly and nice. We started to chat with each other a little bit. I was glad I decided to go there for my 2020 donut year. My friend got a french ring donut ( I think that's what it is...not sure) that one was too sweet for me. Def will go back again when I am in town to support local business. read more

One of the best doughnut shops in San Clemente! The prices are low and the service is amazing. Bring cash, extra 50cent charge for card. Not much for sandwiches / bagels, mostly doughnuts and coffee. I got the cinnamon bear claw and received an extra glazed doughnut for checking in on yelp. Limited seating, perfect for fast and on the go. read more

Donut House - Cinnamon bear claw is huge compared to glazed doughnut - Donuts Near Me - San Clemente, California

Rudest owner ever...for this alone I will never support them. Got screamed at because their door was open so we tried to buy some and he SCREAMED at us. Maybe don't make it look like you're open when there's a full case of donuts? read more

I walked in for a couple of donuts and a croissant sandwich the service was amazing, the selection was plenty to choose from! And the sandwich... the sandwich was absolutely amazing; made fresh and meted cheese and everything 10/10 would recommended! Will defiantly be coming back!! read more

Very disappointed in them. Spent 17 dollars for a dozen mixed. When we got home and everyone wanted a donut for my birthday, all of them were coconut and old. hard and tasteless. Won't be going there again. read more

Great selection, happy staff and yummy donuts. They even had Diedrichs coffee! I'm giving an extra star for the coffee. The donuts were good. They were fluffy and iced perfectly. I like my apple fritters with more cinnamon and less vanilla but it was still tasty. The donut hole was standard. A quick 50 calories with little taste. I'm glad I stopped by, it will surely be added to my morning trip down south for surf. read more

Best donuts! Amazing breakfast sandwiches!! Bring cash if you can :) they have a credit card reader but there's a minimum charge read more

Staff is friendly and donuts are great! The owner gives us a free donut when we order from here

Delish! The lady here is sweet and the donuts are scrumptious not to mention was given extra donuts

By Far Best Donuts in San Clemente!! My family are HUGE donut fans, we've tried every donut place donut place in San Clemente and this one is our favorite! Incredible customer service, the owner is so generous and personable. I'd say the donuts are best quality here, just a classic, delicious taste. We absolutely LOVE Donut House, we've recommended it to all of our friends. Definitely a must. read more

The donuts were great. I really liked the buttermilk donut and fresh filled long John. Coffee was amazing! They had great varieties of coffee on the counter. Coffee was fresh and hot. Service was great as well and very friendly. read more

I've been going here for over 20 years and the owner is the sweetest lady you will ever meet. Amazing food. Amazing donuts. Amazing service.

One morning I left SD at 4:15 am to drive up to LA. Driving in the fog is crappy, but driving in the fog when you're sleepy is awful. After I passed the "boobies" on the 5 freeway, my eyes got very heavy and I knew I needed to make a pit stop. I whipped out my iPhone to search for a gas station or something that would be open at 5 am that had coffee. I exited and started making my way towards 7-Eleven in San Clemente. Driving on El Camino, it was a desolate ghost town. Then I saw a lit up little store and in big, bold bright red letters I see the word DONUT. I got very excited. Who doesn't love donuts? I ordered a glazed twist and medium coffee. I was told to help myself to the coffee. I was impressed with Donut House's selection of coffee condiments. They had regular sugar, sugar in the raw, splenda, sweet & low and my favorite, equal. They had creamer, half and half, whole milk, french vanilla and hazelnut. They even had two different pots of coffee, regular and strong. I went with the strong coffee, equal and french vanilla. (Note: Their coffee was really strong considering I felt like I was on crack until 10 or 11). The nice lady rung me up and I had to pay a whopping $2.35 for my donut and medium coffee. What a steal! As I went to my car and opened my baggie with my donut, I noticed they added 5 donut holes. It was a nice surprise. The donuts were really good. It was the perfect glazed twist. My trip to Donut House definitely perked up my morning. It looks like your typical donut shop, except they have a huge flat screen tv on the wall. If I'm ever trekking it up to LA in the wee hours of the dawn, I'm definitely going to stop here again. read more

Amazing donuts. Master donut maker! They made me break my diet. The owners Lee and her husband have been there for years! Don't miss this place. Real neighborhood feel about it. Family run, great service and really great donuts, croissants and very nice people. They care about their customers. It shows. 5 stars! read more

Coffee is always fresh and ready to pour, I've been fetching coffee there 2-3 times a day for the past 6 months now :) Unbeatable breakfast sandwich, really good variety of doughnuts too, and all very tasty to boot! I've never waited, service is quick, owners and family and staff are all Triple AAA all the way. read more

Very friendly staff. Open early, which is important. We have a very early riser in our vanpool who's half Costa Rican half Yeti. He loves this place. read more

I was in the area and craving a donut and decided to try this place out!! The lady was super nice!! The donuts were delicious...she even threw in two donut holes which i LOVED!! Usually when I walk into a donut shop the visit is short but I wanted to stay here and enjoy it but I had to continue with my morning. BEST donut shop hands down read more

The great customer service and friendliness from the employee that helped me today just made me feel so happy and welcome. It was my first time trying out the Donut House, but you could tell they build excellent customer relationships as they have regulars in and out saying bye to the owner by name! If I could give them 6 stars I would. read more

Just happened to stop by here while driving from San Diego to Los Angeles. Unassuming look, but great donuts! The staff was amazingly friendly and they are those people you can tell are wonderful even though you've only met them for a few minutes. Great selection of donuts and a great croissant breakfast sandwich! Complimentary donut holes with my order, too? Thanks! I wish I was around here more often to try all the donuts! read more

THE donut shop. Classic amazing donuts and the owners are SO NICE. she's always giving us way more than we ordered for free Seriously so sweet. Don't go anywhere else!!! read more

I absolutely love this mom&pop donut shop! I've come here multiple times and the donuts never disappoint. This bakery has mastered their recipes of their decades of business, and you'll agree after your first bite! The donuts are a beautiful mix of density without being dry and the glazing really compliments this. Yeast donuts are SUPER light and paired with their fillings... Great prices. Everyone who works there are super friendly. Go here, everything is delicious. I can't wait to go back and try the rest of the menu. read more

Donut House - Donuts Near Me - San Clemente, California

My daughter and I were craving something sweet. Stopped here to find a case full of fresh delicious donuts and pastries. My daughter got an iced vanilla coffee and loved every drop! The nice lady behind the counter was friendly and helpful. We will be back! read more

CRULLERS! Pink ones. Those are my favorite. This place has them. That alone is enough to warrant 5 five stars from me. On top of that, the lady who worked there was super nice. The other donuts I had were fresh and delicious and didn't have that flavor of old grease I find so often. The apple fritter was apple-y and not just bready. Definitely recommend this place! read more

While visiting the area I wanted to let my husband sleep in while I went to get him coffee and donuts, he wakes up nicely that way. The donuts were good, nothing really special. Being a coffee snob my husband was ok with the Kona blend but it had a bit of a sour finish which is not desirable. I got an orange frosted cake donut and the orange was nice, with a bit of zest for real orange flavor. He got a cinnamon coated, double-looking glazed cinnamon roll. Nice presentation but a pretty standard flavor. A lot of the reviews stated they tossed in donut holes or a free donut...don't count on it, no on got that while I was in the store and I didn't either. Good for a basic donut and coffee stop, definitely reasonably priced. read more

I love this place. I take my son every Sunday, and it's been the best tradition. The breakfast sandwiches are sooo good! I always look forward to Sundays. Try the number 2 ham. It's seriously so delicious. The staff are always friendly too, which is so important. Anything I have tried from the donut house is yummy, I just NEED that number 2 ham!! read more

Excellent service and products. Delicious donuts with a smile. A nice local donut shop.

Stopped in to satisfy some pregnancy cravings. It was so good and fairly priced! Tried a maple bacon bar for the first time, fell in love! The assistant almost gave me less doughnuts than what I was paying for (a dozen) but she re-counted and apologized. The owners seemed friendly enough and seemed to have some regulars that stopped in. It's a mom and pop type of shop which I like. read more

This local owned family donut and coffee shop is top notch. From friendly service to a delicious array of freshly cooked donuts, it sets the maple bar high. There are innovative donuts, too (loved the bacon maple bar!) and the owner's wife told me they change out their oil each day so the donuts taste fresh. Her husband has been making donuts for 35 years and is a definite expert when it comes to yeast and cake style donuts. They always add a few free donuts to every order, even the smallest ones - which is so nice. Overall this is a fantastic donut shop in San Clemente. read more

I went here the other morning about an hour after it had opened. there was no line, and I had ordered a coffee and a donut. the coffee was delicious and they had a lot to choose from, and the donut that I got was a fresh batch that tasted great! the lady even threw a few glazed donut holes in for free! definitely a place I have to come and visit again for some good coffee and donuts. I also have to try some other items from their menu. read more

Best Doughnuts ever! Stopped by here once on a roadtrip. Didn't really feel like eating overpriced garbage at Starbucks. Found this place and fell in love immediately. I think one of the great factors here is the fact that is is family owned. In a world that has chain stores all over the place, the "mom and pop" joint is really lost. It's always great to go to a place, have people know your name, your favorite foods, and treat you like a real person. I strongly recommend this place! read more

I have been getting the hot breakfast sandwiches here while staying at the Hilton. This place is a fine donut ahop.

Owner was super friendly! I got a plain cruller and maple glazed cruller, both were delicious and just what I had been craving, and she gave me an extra old-fashioned for free! $3 for 3 donuts-super affordable for good donuts and service. read more

Been coming here for years. Never leave disapointed! Breakfast sandwhiches are amazing!

Nice little gem we found on the way back from SD. The owner was super friendly and gave us some free extra donuts! Highly recommend her chocolate and strawberry glazed donuts! read more
