*Part of my donut eval series* [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great little shop that is constantly a bit busy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Been a couple times I of course compared the classic glazed. Great, rich color, sweetness isn't too overpowering or crusty, donut itself is nice and airy. This is so far my go to place for a good glazed donut. read more

Went in really quick to get some donut holes and I will say that this is a café kind of donut shop. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nothing really stands out too much.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I did see a fly moving around, but it wasn't near the food so I would say nothing too unexpected about a donut place and I guess it didn't seem bad.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service was OK and you could tell people we're just going along there regular business. My rating is truly a 3.5 but I moved it up because of how quick my interaction action was. $4 for a dozen doughnut holes read more

Donut Touch was right on my way to office this morning. I picked up donuts for my coworkers, and everyone loved it! The donuts were fresh. We got the glazed and chocolate and both didn't disappoint! They also sell bagels and drinks here, and some other pastries in addition. Service was good, they even offered to individually pack my donuts! read more

My friends and I used to come here a lot. This place was down the street from our work so every time we want donuts, we would come here. As always the donuts is fresh and delicious just like I remember it. The service is also excellent! They have the friendliest people working here. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is pretty chill.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They have a space to order the donuts and sandwiches. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is clean and the donut is fresh.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Also, the best and freshest crueller!! Soooo good!! read more

Donut Touch - Donuts Near Me - San Diego, California

Delicious, expectation-exceeding donuts. Fresh and affordable. I stopped in here for an assorted dozen to celebrate a co-worker's birthday and everybody was happy. The total came to about $27, which is very reasonable. I am very particular about Boston creams and this place landed in my top 3. If I had only one criticism, it would be this: the boxes are plain white with no branding or marketing. They should spend a little extra to get their name out there and be proud of their work! In the meantime, I'll be spreading the word, and calories. read more

Date of Visit: 4.12.2025 Cuisine Type: Donut/Sandwich/Bagel Shop Vibe: Family-owned, mini-chain, local plaza, casual Cost: ~$5-$30 depending on what you order What I Ordered & How It Was: Dozen donuts: (Everything is as expected, its not new, its just classics) -Old fashioned chocolate/maple (crispy outside and soft denser inside)...I am biased. I love chocolate donuts and the texture contrasts -Boston Creme...standard -Apple Fritter...I don't really taste much apple -Blueberry Cake...standard with noticeable blueberry tidbits -Strawberry Cake...tart berry icing no actual strawberries -Chocolate Twist and circle...airier dough...something you can squeeze and it'll deflate into nothing -Eclair like chocolate...basically the old-fashioned but long so only one side has icing...it is more doughy than the old-fashioned Service & Atmosphere: Service: Friendly, Ordered at the counter they have a display for the donuts and other baked goods. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance: The space is located at the end of a row of shops, next to Nanay's, a SDCCU bank, and just road. Nearby parking is minimal but there is a nearby parking lot within 4 minutes walking distance. The shop got this older like 90s decor and vibe. Goes to show reliability and consistency over time.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall Thoughts: Best thing I ate: Old fashioned chocolate donuts Something to improve: Maybe more unique flavors? or even lean into the old fashioned texture into other flavors Would I come back? I don't normally come here for myself, but it is a solid choice for standard expected quality donuts that are sure to please any crowd! read more

Donut Touch - A dozen donuts! - Donuts Near Me - San Diego, California

Grabbed some donuts and apple fritters this morning and they were delicious. Service was great, walked in and got my order quickly. Employees are quick, friendly and efficient. Will be back! read more

Can't help myself... if there's a good donut to be had, I have to try out for myself! Completely out of the way, I've been wanting to give Donut Touch a try! This donut shop is deep in the heart of Mira Mesa, at the edge of the strip mall where Aldi is, but it's worth the trip! I would recommend getting there early, when I say early, try like before 10 am! I have yet to actually do that since I was able to only make it here cause I was already in the area. Each time it was slightly after 10 am, but before noon. The second time I visited, they ran out of the two things I had wanted to get... a chocolate old fashioned and a filled donut. On my last visit my hubs came with me we were able to get everything we wanted! A chocolate bar, chocolate old fashioned, half a dozen chocolate donut holes, blueberry filled powdered and a sugar donut. The chocolate ones of course are my picks and my all time favs! If this was in my neighborhood, I'd only pick up a couple of donuts for the hubs and I for the day. But since it's not, I have to grab a few extras! The hubs favs are usually coated in some sort of sugar... powdered, classic sugar or glazed, which don't last beyond a day and best eaten right away. Luckily for me, my favs still taste good, a day or two later! I always eat my chocolate bar right away. The bar is best eaten the day of. The chocolate old fashioned, is still delish the next day, and the chocolate donut holes, still yummy after a couple of days! But that's just me. I have donuts for days! :) It is a bit expensive at over $2 each donut and you have to be early to have your pick from a full selection of donuts, (the old fashioned may be sold out after 10am!) but if I'm close by, I'll make a stop here. Parking is right outside and I haven't had any issues with finding a spot right away. Staff is quick and friendly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The shop is simple, clean, well organized, everything you'd expect to pick up coffee, or breakfast and of course, donuts![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] 2024: 43 read more

The donuts here are pretty tasty. If you don't come in first thing in the morning, you may not get the freshest or warmest donuts or pastries.. but they heat up well and are plenty delicious either way. The service here is pretty good, sometimes it's a bit awkward or off depending on how busy and who is helping at the register. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a mom and pop type experience, in other words you go here for the desserts and food, not the experience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]A few tables and smallish space for people to sit. Not the most comfortable if the line is long and people are stacked up against the seating area.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Donuts are good 4.5/5 Krispy Kreme level good when fresh Bagels (according to wife) 5/5 she likes the onion bagel and everything bagel Value 3/5 they try to charge Krispy Kreme level prices, which discourages people like me from ordering more than a handful on each visit. It also discourages frequency of visits we are comfortable with. Yes, the sandwiches do use higher end meat (boars head) and the donuts are delicious, but you're in Mira Mesa... not Del Mar or La Jolla. Should price accordingly. Overall 4/5 this would be a 5 star donut shop if they didn't price out a big part of the community they serve. Sure, I'll splurge here on occasion, but I'd never come here daily or weekly because $$ money is tight everywhere and donuts tend to fall lower on the priority list. read more

Donut Touch sells Maple Bacon Bars that are light and slightly chewy inside, and dressed with maple glaze that hints of caramel, toffee and vanilla, the entirety topped sweet and salty bacon bits. Which makes me wonder: why does the shop bother selling coffee, sandwiches and other things? I mean, who's walking in thinking, "Maple Bacon Bars? Oh God, no... not for me. I want turkey and bread"? read more

Sign says open till 5pm. Got here before 4pm and they are closed already. Wasted trip.

Donuts here are pretty great!! especially if you swing by before 7am when they are FRESH. But even by 11 AM, there's still a good selection to choose from. They've got cronuts, croissants, long johns, filled donuts, donut holes, and maple-bacon donuts. I've been coming here for years, and while the donuts are always delicious, the prices have spiked like crazy on a short time. Today the donuts are over 2.20$ each. If you're around the area & don't mind the price this place to be. read more

I was actually pretty surprised with how much I liked my bagel sammich from here. They didn't have many options left since I came about an hour before closing time, but I still managed to order what I wanted. The sammich did get a bit expensive in my opinion, but they really stuff it so I was okay with it. All the ingredients were fresh and placed nicely around. I ended up trying one of their donuts as well and they were okay. Nothing special, but wouldn't be opposed to getting it again. I'm more likely to come for the bagel sammich again, but I wouldn't go out of my way to do so. read more

I haven't been to a donut shop in years, and this place exceeded my expectations. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was so clean and cool, there were customers enjoying sandwiches and donuts at the tables inside, and there was a lovely selection of donuts and other baked goods.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]y daughter loved her iced mocha, which was not too sweet; I loved my latte. And the donuts...we got an assortment and they all tasted different. A lot of donuts tend to taste the same and only look different. The apple fritter had lots of apple pieces, the blueberry cake donut had a light crunchy exterior, the old-fashioned had a light sweetness to it. The service was friendly and efficient. read more

The worker there a girl seemed really unhappy or possibly mad she didn't smile or greet in a friendly professional manner Iv been coming here for 20 years I'm not coming here anymore because I'm turned off by her unfriendly behavior. There's a lot of other donut places available where people are friendly and welcoming to customers. read more

This review is for their deli sandwich. I ordered a California Dreamin sandwich. The bread was so hard and tough to bite, it was also so thick. On top of that, they barely give you any meat, just one thin layer of deli meat. The service was also strange, the lady walked away in the middle of my payment and she didn't even have another task to do. I'll probably never order a sandwich again. Their donuts are decent, nothing special. read more

Each worker here has always been so helpful and attentive! I arrived on a sunday morning around 8am and ordered 4 bagel sandwiches, a matcha blended drink, and 3 donuts. Everyone was quick and nice and the food is always delicious! The matcha drink was great as well, not too sweet! I would recommend this place to all in the area if you value kind service. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The inside of the place is very simple and I can see myself studying here if I need a change of environment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

When this place serves fresh donuts, they are REALLY good. The coffee is really good as well. The employees here are great. They greet you right when you go through the door and are ready to serve you. Avoid coming in before 7 AM because the donuts are stale and may have been from the previous day. For the price of a half dozen, I expect the donuts to fresh and of excellent quality. Otherwise, I'd rather take my money to another mom & pop shop that's cheaper and consistently serves fresh donuts. read more

The maple bar and apple fritter are pure pefection! Better than from any donut shop, i.e., Donut Bar, Randy's Donuts, Dunkin Donuts, Mary's Donuts, Sesame Donuts, etc. Maple bar: everything you want in a donut. Soft, chewy, slightly crisp exterior, a hint of butter milk, and medium sweetness with a touch of maple flavor. Superb, 10/10! Apple fritter: minimal apple pieces, but has an amazing crisp throughout the entire fritter. They should call this a crispy funnel cake donut. Remarkable, 10/10! Glazed, chocolate, blueberry, old-fashioned, cronut, and strawberry donuts: these are delicious as well. Simple but high-quality donuts, 9/10. Service is rapid, but if this was not the case, I'd still wait just to get these donuts! Come here before lunchtime, as they run out of donuts as fast as Homer Simpson eats strawberry sprinkled donuts. read more

Stopped by Donut touch for an order of donuts for my coworkers birthday. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's kind of a random little joint in a strip mall, so i was pleasantly surprised by how delicious the bagels and donuts looked.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My coworkers love the maple, chocolate, and plain cake and I got the cinnamon twist. It was perfectly crunchy on the outside and soft & doughy on the inside. Everything smelled great and tasted fresh. About $26 for a dozen assortment. Will definitely be back for the bagels! read more

Love this place! Neighborhood gem/ favorite. Their donuts are always fresh, great selection (if they don't sell out), good coffee. Anytime I have an event and want to bring something easy a dozen donuts always does the trick. Thankful they exist -- I'm here easily once a week. The same crew so love the consistence. read more

Came in for one donut, but employee was so kind I ended up buying half a dozen for my coworkers! She even threw in a free donut for me, which was super sweet & not necessary of her!

My husband picks up donuts and bagels from here on the reg. Wait time is standard. I love their bagels and my daughters love the donuts.

Clean. A lot of selection. Bought a dozen glazed donut holes. Very generous. Threw in 1/2 dozen chocolate donut holes for me to try! Donuts are big in size. And delicious. My hubby said bagel sandwiches for breakfast or lunch are huge and good price for what you get. read more

This place has great donuts! Much better quality then the big name places near by. I've been here at least 10 times. Their glazed donuts are big, fluffy, and delicious! Sometimes you can get them at the perfect time and they are nice and hot. Their apple fritters are really good too. They don't have alot of cooked apples instead but the flavor is still tasty. The cinnamon rolls are decent. Once it was a little over cooked and once it was a little undercooked. But still decent. Maple bars and filled donuts are solid. Very good quality. The cronuts are delicious too! It's a small croissant that's glazed like a donut. They also have fresh bread and bagels. Sandwiches too. The breakfast bagels and breakfast croissants are really good. Honestly, the organization needs some work. It seems to be a little chaotic sometimes. But overall, the quality of the donuts keep me coming back. The big names might be more organized and got u served a little quicker, but the donuts aren't gonna compare. This place is great for occasions when you want to bring some donuts in to work. My team loves it! read more

Wow, one of the best sandwiches I have had! They freshly bake the bread every morning, and it makes such a big difference. I ordered the turkey club on everything bagel baguette. The sandwich included a choice of cheese, which I picked cheddar but they have Swiss and a few other options. It also had lettuce, tomato and red onion. All the veggies were fresh and crisp. Of course, they have some amazing donuts here as well. I usually call in my order and my sandwich is ready when I get there. I am greeted when I walk and everyone that works here friendly, There is plenty of parking as this is in a big shopping center on Mira Mesa Boulevard. They also also have other locations. I frequent the Poway location more often and their donuts and sandwiches are just as delicious! If I'm feeling like a sandwich and I'm in the area this is where I go. read more

Been coming here for awhile but never reviewed it. It's one of my favorite go to spots for breakfast. They have donuts, bagels, breakfast sandwiches and the service here is very fast. There are often lines, but it goes by really fast. Donuts and bagels do lower in inventory around lunch sometimes, but that just comes to show how popular this place can be. One of my favorite places. read more

If you want one of the best donut shops in Mira Mesa, then you gotta keep in touch with Donut Touch! PARKING: Located in a central shopping plaza, there is tons of parking in the lot, so you should have no issues LOCATION: Decent sized donut shop! The interior smells like sweet, freshly baked donuts. There's seating inside for you to enjoy your donuts. They also serve sandwiches, bagels, croissants, coffee, and lox if you were in the mood for a hearty breakfast. Usually there's a line of 2-3 people but it goes by really quick. SERVICE: Service is nice and friendly! They are very quick to get the donuts as well as preparing your sandwiches. FOOD/DRINK: I got a maple bar and a sausage-egg-and-cheese croissant for breakfast. The croissant was buttery and flakey, the sausage was savory and delicious, and the cheese was ooey-gooey and melted perfectly in the sandwich. Of course, you can't go to a donut shop and not get donuts! The maple bar I got was fresh, soft, and sweet - just the way you expect it to be. I also highly recommend their blueberry donuts - one of my absolute favorites. CONCLUSION: One of the best donut places in the Mira Mesa location! I only wish they stayed open a little later - but its a great place to stop by for breakfast or to grab a dozen donuts for your family/workplace. read more

Great local, independent store. Great selection. Very friendly staff. Blueberry: so light and fluffy. Great blueberry flavor. My favorite donut here. Apple fritter: yummy, apple-licious. Good texture, nice crunchy exterior and soft interior. Bacon-maple: you pretty much get a full strip of bacon on top, cut up into bite size pieces. Most worth-it donut. Tasty. Huge coffee selection. They make sandwiches also. Need to try these next time. Definitely coming back here. read more

Generally, the donuts are yummy, coffee drinks are made well, and from what I saw, the bagel sandwiches are very popular. I had a raspberry filled glazed donut, and my son had a chocolate donut with sprinkles. Mine was fantastic... moist and tasty. My son's donut was a bit dry on the bottom, and he didn't finish it. I'd say that this was a one-off situation though, as we've not had a bad or dry donut here before. We went on a Sunday morning, so it was definitely busy and I want to cut them some slack, but my coffee drink was forgotten for quite a while and I had to remind them a couple of times. They were really apologetic and it tasted amazing, so I think it was just because it was so busy. Next time, I'll be trying a bagel sandwich since that's what everyone else was eating! read more

Customer service: - I'm not sure why there are so many complaint about the service here, but I've had all great experiences so far! Donuts: - Really good and fresh!! (Although the creme filling was lacking one time..) Coffee: - warning: the mocha or caramel hot coffee can be super sweet if you don't like that kind of thing. I don't mind it though! It also takes about 5-10min for them to make it because they're using the espresso machine! Again, I don't mind waiting! I haven't had the sandwiches yet but they look/smell really good! The place is either super packed or completely dead. Funny how people come in waves (: Side note: I just love the name. It makes me laugh every time! read more

my partner introduced me to this place for their breakfast bagels, and this has been our go-to spot for breakfast bagels before hikes! their egg and sausage/ham bagels are filling and not too oily, and they have a pretty wide selection of bagels to choose from. the everything bagel has been consistently delicious. we always had a pleasant time here - the wait times aren't long, the workers are sweet, and the bagels are great! i also tried their iced latte the other day to pair with the bagels. it comes in 3 sizes, and i got the smallest size , the 12oz. it was a pretty standard latte, nothing super out of the world but a solid and convenient coffee to get with the other foods while you're here. read more

Some of the best donuts I've ever had! Amazing staff too they are all very kind and genuine. The only issue I have is that they aren't open long enough hours :( and they need to update their hours on Apple Maps because I've driven there twice and they were closed when listed as open. Not a big deal and besides that.. this is the best spot in-between Mira Mesa / poway / pq area for sure. 5/5 would recommend Also their espresso drinks are amazing too. Gogogo! read more

The donuts are out of this world, but the young guy with the glasses and mood just seemed like he didn't want to be there... I purposely told him to have a great day just to be kind and he mumbled but didn't a knowledge . He's the guy that makes the sandwiches . The young petite girl came out of the back and saw me, stood there with a blank stare and didn't greet me even though I greeted Her . I really felt like I was inconveniencing THEM. The owner is always a delight . I manage a store and this is NOT the customer service I would expect from my associates . [[HIGHLIGHT]]A friendly atmosphere is needed in a precious establishment like this .[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It's what it deserves, especially with a great location, and the tone it sets to start a wonderful day . Even the men in the back are more LIVELY and kind! Let's get THE GUYS in the back to the front this isn't a rant to be mean. I just hope we have a nice conversation of expectations of what this place deserves . ILL STILL COME HERE for donuts , I just hope the vibe changes . Thanks guys for the delicious donuts you make . They're always great . The food is great , and drinks are too . ( just refill the coffee ) read more
