    A special selection - Halloween themed
    Mark W.

    Fantastic donuts! They were hot and fresh out the fryer... some flavors I had never seent before, like an apple fritter wrapped in a bear claw! The coffee was great, and the service was cheerful and nice. They have specials on posters posted around the shop with pictures of the hits! A lot of retirees in the parking lot on Sunday's for the "cars and coffee", check out their hot rods while you nibble on an English muffin breakfast sando.

    Got some donuts from Donut Star this morning on my way to work. I've been here a few times and what makes me keep coming back is that the donuts are really good and freshly made. They have a variety of donuts, croissants, breakfast sandwiches, drinks. The place is small but has plenty to offer. I think this is easily a hidden gem. The people are always so friendly so that's a plus.

    This is as far as I got

    Honestly I saw their post in the instagram and was hoping their donuts were good. They weren't. The apple fritter was extremely dry and was not even close to being sweet. It was almost vegan-like. Also if you're like 98% of the world and don't carry cash, be prepared to pay a 75 cent convenience fee to use your card.

    Best donut shop in chino hills! It's family owned and they are extremely friendly. Great service, kind people, and most importantly, DELICIOUS donuts!

    We love the service and options at this don't shop. Donuts are fresh and delicious. Our kids pick something different each time and love every donut they have tried. I tried the maple bacon cronut and it did not disappoint! This donut shop is located in the bowling alley plaza and there is a shipping store next door which is pretty convenient.

    Right when entering we were welcomed by the friendly owners and they also helped guide us through their selections. They have a lot to choose from, between the donuts and croissants so you'll probably find something for everyone. We got the chocolate with sprinkles, cream filled, maple bacon cronut, and ham & jalapeño croissant. Everything was good, although the maple bacon was too sweet for me. It's a small shop, so really more of a grab and go experience. We came on a Sunday morning and there was a car meet taking place right outside. I'm guessing this is a recurring thing after looking at some other photos that were posted.

    Mmmm...Apple fritter!

    So, I used to live in Chino Hills and this was my donut shop go-to! Three years ago I moved to Georgia and the donuts here are nothing close to California donuts! I crave them all the time! So recently I came back for a visit and Donut Star was one of my first stops!! Linda was working and she is the sweetest lady! I bought several donuts, including apple fritters, my favorite! She even threw in a free cinnamon roll. The day before my flight home I stopped by to order a bunch of apple fritters for my kids in Georgia. They were so excited when I gave them the fritters!! We all miss the donuts from Donut Star so much. Please come to Georgia!! Haha.

    Fresh donuts! Available at 2 pm!

    Alan and his wife are so genuine and kind! Generous couple! The donuts here are so delicious as well. The best of both worlds. Wasn't going to write a post because then everyone will buy all the donuts. But that's ok. They deserve a post! You gotta give credit where credit is due! Amazing customer service! Never disappointed!! They always have fresh donuts available! Affordable too! The ambiance is worth a visit!!

    Very nice hospitality. The donuts are moist and tasty. This place has a lot of variety so definitely worth checking out. The ambiance is nice as it sits in a complex that is open where you can enjoy the fresh air.

    How much for a dozen?

    $17

    Does anyone know if they are still open?

    I drove by this evening and there was a banner outside that said open.

    Are the strawberry filled glazed donuts always on their menu or is it a seasonal item?

    Do they make any vegan donuts?

    Lmao....no!

    How much for a mixed dozen?

    $17

    Finally able to check this place out. Been seeing it on social media and finally made my way out…read morehere with the kiddos. Wanted to see what it was all about. The parking is a decent size. Two tables outside to dine on if you want to eat there & a few bar stool seating inside as well. The vibes inside were cute and matched their theme. Kind of dark since majority of the place is painted black so pictures inside didn't turn out so nice unless you had it at a good angle near the window but I wasn't really here to take pictures, I was really here to try what they're offering. Donuts: The donuts are pretty, that's for sure. Plenty of options and donuts I think ranged in pricing depending on the specialty level. The ones we got range from $4-$7. We got half a dozen donuts along with breakfast items & coffee to try. We got the ube mochi, hello kitty character, unicorn, Banana Pudding, Oreo and Nutella donuts to try. The design are very eye catching for sure. Donuts are nice and fluffy and packed with flavors. Kids really enjoyed them. They're a bit pricey and not something you can regularly buy in this type of economy on a daily basis. To me, they're fun to buy for special occasions and that's probably what we'll do for birthdays or events. For the food, we got a PD breakfast burrito. They offered to cut it in half. The burrito itself is already $16. They asked if we wanted to add cheese or avocado. I was curious and did it. We added cheese and avocado at an extra cost to it. Cheese was $1 and Avocado was $2.50. Extra salsa was 51 cents. It's the size of my hand and a hefty looking burrito. At that point, it's really a questionable choice of why am I spending almost $20 on a burrito.. Haha but it was a decent burrito but in the end, everything was an extra cost after the initial order of the item. Would I buy it again? No. Was it worth it? Not really. But definitely good to try if you are craving a breakfast burrito and don't mind the price. Drinks: We ordered the Ube Vietnamese coffee and Sea Salt Cold Brew. We added an extra shot to the cold brew. The cold brew was good. The Ube Vietnamese coffee was good too. It's a premade coffee drink and not customizable. It's more on the sweeter end than a traditional Vietnamese coffee. I usually like it not as sweet but it was the combo that I was curious about and went with it. Good flavors. Wished the coffee was a bit more bolder for the Vietnamese coffee part but it's not bad. Service was nice and friendly. Everyone was very approachable and I appreciated the explanations and recommendations while deciding.

    I enjoyed my visit to Dirty Penguin Coffee. I came on a Sunday around 10am to get some work done,…read moreand there was plenty of seating available. It got pretty crowded and noisy between 11am and 12:30pm as lots of families with kids came in. After 1pm, things quieted down again and more tables opened up. The café also has free Wi-Fi, a few outlets, and a clean, spacious restroom. One thing I appreciated was that the staff seemed to care about maintaining a comfortable environment. A child near my table was having a tantrum, and an employee politely asked the parents to take the child outside until things had calmed down. Since many customers were there to work or study, I thought that was handled well. The girl who took my order was also incredibly kind. Unfortunately, I didn't catch her name, but her smile was contagious and genuinely brightened my day. Food: My table ordered the tiramisu latte and the ube latte. The tiramisu latte was delicious, and I'd definitely recommend it. The ube latte had a stronger flavor profile, so if you enjoy a bold ube and coffee taste, you'll probably like it as well. Overall, I had a great experience at Dirty Penguin Coffee. There's plenty of parking outside, which is always a nice bonus, and I'd happily come back to work or grab a coffee again.
