Do your tastebuds a solid and try a blueberry old fashion! They are the best damn donut in town! Definitely your best bet for a dozen, simple, elegant and tasty, tasty, tasty donuts. They have a wide variety of options and their product is always fresh! What are you waiting for??? Go get one or twelve! read more

I'm not sure what everyone loves so much about this place. Everyone keeps telling me they are the best donuts in Chico. Maybe its because they know the owner, just like every other place in this tiny town. I have been in a few different times and the variety of donuts they offer seems small compared to the donut wheel a mile up the street, who offer a wider range of selections to choose from. They only make crullers on Fridays aparently. Too bad there arent any hot hand dipped donut shops in town or these places would go out of business. And Im not talking about crispy cream. I miss you fractured prune! read more

They have some great donuts. We don't have that many good donut spots in chico but this is hands down one of the best. Plus they have some legit old school arcade games! read more

When I moved to Chico a few month ago, I thought I would have to give up the 24-hr access to donuts that I enjoyed by going to The Donut Wheel in Cupertino. Well, I was wrong... Donut Nook is open 24/7 and serves up FRESH, HOT donuts all hours of the day and night. Seriously -warm, gooey raised glazed donuts!! No sad, stale donuts here! This place has been a Chico institution since 1977, and there is a reason. It rocks! To top it off, the service was pleasant, even though there was a fairly long line at nearly midnight on a Friday night. At my old haunt, I had to deal with a bit of a "donut nazi". People in Chico are so friendly - I guess that goes for all-night donut shops as well. Thank you, Donut Nook, for making my move to Chico even better than I had expected! :) read more

Best donuts in Chico. Chocolate chip square is a yes.

These guys rock. Good service and great donuts also great coffee.get the peanut butter chocolate donut.

I have been to every donut shop in Chico and this one is the best. All the others make ho hum plain basic donuts. This place makes the basics better than anybody and even does some unique ones such as the chocolate chip square with peanut butter, yum! read more

If you're going to go for it and eat donuts - hit up the Nook. If you really want to do it right, go after midnight when they come out the fryer covered in hot grease. Sure they're still tasty the next morning, but they're already 8hrs old by then. Gotta go at midnight. read more

I love that this place is open almost all night so dessert donuts can be a regular thing! Once, there was a magical night when they had chocolate donut holes. That needs to happen again. The fritters are great. They make their chocolate cake donuts with Ghirardelli cocoa, which is why they are perfect. I love this place. read more

I'm giving this five starts because I have been going here since practically my birth. My dad and I used to go there before I went to school and get donuts at like 7 or 8 am and that's one of the best memories I have of Chico. This place has the best donuts compared to others I've had EVER. They're heavenly I'm telling you, check this place out, you won't regret it. read more

By far my favorite donuts. They a huge variety of delicious donuts. Definitely recommend trying these dounts.

A varied selection and absolutely amazing donuts that smelled great just sitting in the back seat of my car.

Best donuts in town. Just the right amount of crispness on the outside, light and airy on the inside. Always fresh and not overpriced. Update 7/18. So much for not being overpriced. I guess they decided if Starbucks can overcharge for donuts they can too. What was a 60 cent donut a few years ago is now $1.20. Maybe it's not their fault. Maybe it's the cost of doing business in Calif. Downgraded one star for the price increase. read more

This is a great place to get delicious, fresh doughnuts at a really reasonable price. They don't take credit or debit so bring your cash but there is an ATM nearby. It's simply a great place for great doughnuts. read more

No hipster donuts here. Just really good ones that taste like your Mom dragging you around to garage sales at 7am on a Saturday. This is comfort food, an every-once-and-awhile flashback. This is where you find old men reading the Chronicle at dawn, wishing they could still smoke inside, and fat cops at three in the morning getting maple icing stuck in their mustaches. 20 donuts will cost you about $1.50 if I remember correctly. read more

I have never had a donut as fresh as donut nook's. Like wow. There's a window where you can see the dude making them on the spot. You will be absolutely satisfied and if you're not you just plain suck because these donuts are flawless. There's an oldschool arcade machine in the lobby, and they only take cash because they're old school overall, but I appreciate that because it means they pay attention to detail and they make only the best of the best. What's your favorite donut? They'll have the best version of that nice and warm and soft and dense but fluffy all at once. Fucking enjoy, you will not be disappointed. Oh, and they're open late so get on with your drunk self and grab some late night donuts of the gods. You're welcome. read more

Best donuts in town that opens 24hr! They really should open this somewhere in the bay haha It's so cheap!!!

Peanut butter pockets on Saturdays! Super yummy donuts and they're open 24 hours. FYI it is cash only! They do have an atm on site though.

I always stop by to buy donuts here and have been satisfied most of the time. Today I waited in line for over 5 min, the only person in line may I add, only to have the young lady at the front ignore me the whole time. I was never greeted on the way in and although I was on my phone she never really came out of the room where she was loading the donuts back and forth. I waited expecting her to finish and ask me if I needed help. All of a sudden a gentleman walks in and she immediately pops up and greets him and asks if he needs anything as he walked up behind me. I was in shock that she completely didn't acknowledge my presence. For this reason I walked out and will not bring any business back. Very dissapointed...business owners please train your people well. read more

This place is soooooo good! Donuts are always fresh & delicious. Looks like a small little hole in the wall, But their donuts are amazing. Best apple & blueberry fritters I have ever had too! read more

They don't probably have as much variety as other famous chain stores but if you want some local fresh delicious donuts, this is your place.

Wow! These donuts are the best! Megan is awesome and slingin' her donuts on a holiday with smile made it all the better.

Best donut place in chico! Go late at night around midnight to get them warm and fresh mmmmmm...

Best donuts I've ever had, hands down. The density of their donuts is perfect; not too light, and not too heavy. I am a big fan of cake donuts and always crave them. Their chocolate bars/twists and old fashioned donuts are very delicious, too. Next time I will have to try a chocolate chip square. Didn't realize they were open 24/7! I will definitely be back. :) read more

Best donuts around! I get them for all events! They're priced well for their quality. Super tasty!

The atmosphere at donut nook is absolutely phenom. I would highly recommend stopping by and getting one of their marvelous maple bars, again absolutely phenom! I am personally vegan and haven't eaten them but everyone enjoys them read more

Blueberry Old fashioned! Light, delicate blueberry essence, not greasy at all, just pure donut joy. I am generally a maple girl when it comes to donuts. But someone at work brought the blueberry and made me try a bite. My husband and I feasted on some recently when getting into Chico late after a concert. 1AM was when we cruised up, and the woman behind the counter was nice and answered my questions as I pointed at various selections. The plain chocolate cake donut was delectable, and so was the maple buttermilk we split. Go here to get your donut fix. read more

Um the employees should really keep their comments about their customer to themselves rude comments under their breathe to other employees wow right in front of me the owner really needs to check in with his employees read more

Fresh made doughnuts how can you go wrong with that! I work close by and late at night you can smell the tasty doughnuts being made for blocks away. Maple bars, chocolate old fashioned... If a fresh doughnut doesn't make you happy I don't know what will. Thank you!!!! read more

Just stopped by for my very first Donut Nook dozen!! I originally wanted to treat my family to donuts when they wake up, but they are now hidden and all mine! Thanks Donut Nook. read more

Best donuts in town. Mmmmm now I wanna go get one haha. Fresh and you can usually watch them making them through a window in the lobby! Love their hours as well! Good prices and service! read more

The donuts are good, but the service is TERRIBLE. this is the 3rd time we went to go get donuts there. The 1st time was on a Friday afternoon, there were almost no donuts left. The person there told us to return at around 11 PM for a variety of donuts since they just started cooking them. We went back at 11:30, yes there were a lot more donuts now but the ladies there who were putting them in the paper bags were acting like they're so annoyed. we just ignored that at the moment. And then we went back again on a Friday night, it was a different lady but the service was the same... Why do they act like they're so annoyed when a customer is buying donuts??? We're gonna try the OTHER donut places, maybe we'll get lucky with their service. (PS: we were polite when we were ordering, there was no line & we paid in cash, no excuse for them to be so rude) read more

The donuts are good, nothing groundbreaking. I would like some more variety, more special concoctions that I could only find here, but I can live without. Donut Nook is great for one reason; open 24 hours. Chico needs more 24 hour establishments!! Especially outside of the small radius around the college, which is where most of the 24-hour joints reside. read more

Hands down best in chico! old fashions and choc chip are just few of the best. often out of donuts during the weekend if you dont get in early...also they have started keeping strange hours during the week but it could be they are just sold out. also CC over $10 is preffered so by the dozen... but if they have em get them that way read more

Ive been coming here since I was a little kid! Late night donut runs to the Donut Nook are the best! Around 2am you can get the freshest donuts! The service is great & the donuts are great too! They have great prices. read more

A Chico tradition. I'm a regular here and I have been for a long time. Just like the others say, cant beat the Chocolate Chip Square!

The donuts and treats are the best in town. Honestly. And the girl behind the counter this morning.....about as good as it gets. I am glad I woke up with a donut craving today. Life is gonna be alright after all. read more

Best Apple Fritter in the United States and I have eaten a variety of apple fritters across four states; California, Alaska, Utah, Nevada. Just think, the best one right here in good old Chico, CA. Thank you Donut Nook:) read more

This place is the bomb if you want fresh donuts this is the best place to go they beat all other's hand's down

This place is my go to for donuts! No one in Chico compares to their quality, taste and service. They have all kinds of donuts and even some ones you would never even think of like their chocolate square, a must try! read more
