More than a donut shop. The donuts looked amazing but we were there for the breakfast. Great breakfast menu for "donut shop". The variety of benedicts was a no brained for me. I tried the lox and capers benedict and it was really good. The ladies that work there were nice and hospitality. This must be a local spot as there were quite a few people who came in and were greeted on first name basis. A gentleman sat down next to us and had an order of French toast that looked amazing. Honestly the portion size is large enough for to share. Try it out when in the area. It may become a favorite. read more

The newest delight is the Mochi doughnut. If you like the mochi ice cream treat, you will love this! It's made from rice flour, so it has a chewy texture, and looks like a sweet little pastel daisy, with different colored frostings, appropriately flavored. This is exclusive, to Flakey Cream, created by their baker. You won't find it anywhere else! As of now, it's only available Friday through Sundays. My grandkids love these, and it's my new favorite! read more

Since my barber moved to Healdsburg (next door) to Flakey Cream Do-Nuts, I've always been curious about the donut shop next door. I popped in and liked the diner style seating with a row of seating against the wall and swivel styled chairs across the way along with a counter. I ordered the bacon, egg and cheese croissant. It came out quickly and was hot. The croissant, no lie, was one of the best croissants I've ever had. It was warm, doughy, flaky, buttery goodness.. the egg, bacon and pepper jack cheese was delicious. This might be my new go-to breakfast spot after a haircut appointment. read more

Crowded, long line, but that's because these people know what's up. This place makes the best old fashioned donut I've ever had. Ever. The other donuts are nothing to write home about but they're certainly decent. I agree that the bagels look pretty sus but I haven't tried them myself. Look, service is super friendly and Dutch Door closed forever so...this is the place! read more

Very cute breakfast place with great donuts, croissants, eggs, etc. Not fancy, but a cute young mother with her daughter serving everyone with smiles. A nice way to get our visit to Healdsburg started! read more

We've been here several times and usually have good service. The food was good but the service was horrible. The server came and asked if she could quickly take our order. Then went and stood off to be looking on her phone. Never asked how it was or gave refills. Customer service gets the excellent tips and good reviews. read more

Based on the donut name and that it's located in a strip mall, I had low expectations. The inside is a typical diner, unremodeled, with a donut counter. But outside is nicer. We sat outside for breakfast on a warm Friday under the shade of a red umbrella and next to a planter box of flowers. The atmosphere was very pleasant and they kindly brought a dog bowl of water out for our dog. I ordered huevos rancheros, with three tacos under scrambled eggs, chorizo, black beans, avocado, crema. It was very good and filling. Husband got the homemade corned beef has with 2 poached eggs and a slice of toast, and said it was better than he expected but not a huge portion. Our friend who doesn't eat eggs got the savory crepe filled with mushrooms, spinach, cheese and chicken pesto with a side salad and enjoyed it. The waitress was nice but it took 30 minutes for our order to arrive, no water refills, had to ask for check and to go boxes, so service wasn't great. They may have been short staffed as I only saw one waitress inside and out. Total bill was $54 plus an automatic 20% tip, though that could be adjusted. I would recommend this place if you are not in a hurry and want a good breakfast. read more

Underrated breakfast sandwich's and burritos, recently found this spot and I'm hooked.

Breakfast was excellent. Service was spot on. Place started in 1960, about the same time as me and had a nostalgic feeling.

My daughter wanted a chocolate foot, she went there and came back with a maple foot with sprinkles, a jelly donut and a cinnamon roll. These days lots of portions seem to be getting smaller. The foot donut was bigger than what I remember, my daughter agreed. The foot still had the raised yeasty flavor with nice texture. The jelly donut was also huge and jam packed with raspberry filling. The jelly donut was almost the same size as the cinnamon roll. I used to go here in the 70's and the quality is just as good as I remember it. read more

AVOID this place at all costs. 7 health code violations in 3 years, donuts that taste like they are a week old, and a breakfast croissant that they didn't even bother to melt the cheese with overcooked, dry bacon. Oh, did I mention that the donuts are $3 a pop? I paid $20 for a breakfast sandwich and two donuts ... learn from my mistake. read more

We usually really like this place, but today was not so good. My daughter's omelet had 2 hairs in it and was over loaded with spinach that still had the stems. Should have been chopped up. My pancakes were very thick and tough. I could barely cut them. Comes from over stirring the batter. Sorry, but very disappointing read more

Do-nut be deceived. This small, diner-like spot offers much more than donuts. I'm in the Healdsburg Center (the CVS shopping center) almost daily but have never stepped foot inside this place until today. I was fulfilling a request for a bacon, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich and was pointed here. It was packed on a Saturday morning! I had no idea. The croissant sandwich cost $8.70, cheaper than many other spots in town but not as cheap as I expected given the dated diner setting. They made it pretty quickly considering how busy they were. The recipient devoured it and was pleased. Now I know! read more

This is a solid diner with donut options. The corn beef hash will set you straight and on your way for the day.

Right out of the gate we started off with rotten curdled cream for the coffee. Requested a different container which they brought. While the second container was not rotten, it was warm. Ordered a dozen donut holes while waiting for the breakfast. Nothing to write home about and did not seem fresh. Biscuits and Gravy - WHY WHY WHY do these places use gravy from a can versus making it fresh. Sysco is NOT your friend on Biscuits and Gravy. Huge Portion, Industrial Grade taste/flavor. Cornbeef Hash - Do NOT advertise Home Made, then pull it out of a can. If this was homemade, then you did the absolutely most incredible job of replicating what comes directly out of the can. Spicy Mexican Benedict WAS REALLY GOOD. At the end of the day close to $90 for 3 people for a diner type breakfast that 2 of the 3 dishes were lousy.......not going to return on this one. read more

I won't return here after paying almost $30 for a BLT and a Coke. BLT $14.95 Coke (can) $5 Surcharge (core) $3 Tax $1.75 Tip $5 Total $29.95 read more

We have been long-time Flakey Cream goers so writing a negative review is rather unfortunate. Donuts are still tasty! However, I've ordered two different burritos while in town and the sausage is a bit funky. They used to use link sausage in their burritos and that was much better tasting. This go around I ordered an F1 and asked to add jalapeños which I'm sure we were charged for but they were omitted from the burrito. Annoying but whatever. Online under "Sides" they offer a side of corned beef hash. I love a good corned beef hash so I ordered that as well. What I received was a full portion and the consistency was that of canned cat food, mushy and minced. The corned beef was hardly detectable and quite frankly, unappealing. I hope this review helps to improve quality overall! read more

What can one say about Flakey Cream other than "perfection." Flakey Cream is an old diner feel with a touch of modern esthetics and yet the food and baked goods are a delight unmatched by anyone. More so, the hospitality and care the owner has for her diners can be felt through her staff. Please don't skip on enjoying the delicious brewed coffee, breakfast made with love, and fresh baked goods all the while looked after by amazing, caring people. Thanks for the great time, Flakey Cream, we'll be back for sure! read more

Been here many times for their doughnuts which are really good. Made the mistake of trying the "bagels" which skip the boiling process. They're more of a French roll than a bagel. read more

Enjoyed lunch outside. Good service. Had the tuna melt on rye with a side salad (ample salad with lots of cucumber, tomato and red onion). My friend had the corn and chicken salad, which was chockfull of chicken, corn and other delicious veggies. Solid option for lunch just nothing special. read more

Thankfully we beat the rush cuz this place gets BUSY!! Service was a bit slow because they were short staffed, but they were hustling for sure. Our food was delish! Nothing fancy, just good quality food. We had to try the donuts so we got some donut holes to-go. Equally delicious. You can tell it's a local favorite for sure! read more

Beautiful donuts - by far the best blueberry cake donut I've ever had especially fit $1.10. Very friendly service. I bought 4 donuts and returned to buy 4 more donuts and look forward to eating them. Fun variety with total 3 blueberry donuts. Based on the one blueberry donut, I would definitely return here for an egg meal when I stay at a place that's not serving breakfast. So happy!!! read more

This is one of my old time favorite places to come to for brunch, I have been coming here since the Madonna the material girl Days and the food is just as delicious as the first time I came. This is a family owned small business. Friendly environment, customer service is excellent. I recommend the French toast and the omelettes they are all so tasty is hard to pick my favorite Prices are very reasonable. The pancakes are also delicious and big, overall their portions sizes are big enough to share, it does get crowded on the weekends and since the place is small we some times have a little bit of a wait which I don't mind. I love coming to this place among other brunch laves I'm Healdsburg but this one in particular as is more like home style food and the donuts are a must try read more

My grandson wanted donuts and the local donut place was closed so I searched the internet and found this donut shop. I then went there and was surprised how good it was. Also, to my surprise they also served breakfast. We were immediately asked by a waitress if we wanted to sit down and eat lunch. I told her that we were just getting donuts. She then waited on us. While waiting I looked at the food that was being served to other customers and it looked delicious. I will definitely go back to try the food based on what I saw. read more

Went for the donuts. Food smelled good but no thank you. For the donuts. They were dry

The best breakfast in the city! After we found it, we went back every single morning for the remainder of our trip. The donuts are amazing too. Also, great service to go along with the great food. read more

Absolutely delicious cream donuts! Cream oozing out of it all, just loved this delicious sugar treat! Iced chai seemed a bit anemic after the donut sweetness... oh well. read more

This place only had a few tables for more than two, so not good for groups. BuT the food was in generous portions and the crust on the chicken fried steak was excellent. The country potatoes www recipe very good too. Prices very moderate. Service wasn't great (only refilled coffee once, water never refilled) but they didn't have a lot of servers. Donuts looked amazing! read more

Visiting Healdsburg on National Donut Day so we had to give this place a visit. We came for breakfast and left with some donuts, too. This is an unpretentious, old school diner that clearly has a loyal following of locals. The coffee was hot and yummy (from Peerless in Oakland), the breakfasts were simple and hearty, and the donuts are delicious. If you want an alternative to the foodie scene and good solid grub with speedy, friendly service, you can't beat this place! read more

Great breakfast when you need something casual. (Healdsburg has some of the finest dining around and it can get overbearing after a while). Donuts and coffee was just what I needed. I'm just kidding. I'm on a diet, so I couldn't have a donut. Had some fantastic eggs benedict instead. Note: I did go back the next morning and broke my diet with a donut. I couldn't resist. It was worth it. read more

Even only had a couple donuts and coffee so we can't reach their breakfast. I would say this place is amazing. The apple fritter is the perfect blend finely chopped apples; not overly dense, greasy, gooey, or overly sweet. The maple traditional doughnut was light and fluffy, and the flavors were on point. The woman working the register was incredibly friendly and accommodating without being asked to be. I definitely recommend this place for a nice quick doughnut and a coffee. The breakfast looked good, but I can't speak to the taste. read more

So good that we went twice on one trip! Nice people, great donuts. Tucked away in a shopping center. As of Feb 2022, there was a covered tent patio in front, so we accidentally passed it the first time around. Worth the stop! read more

I love the name. I assume the only reason cream gets flaky is if it's been sitting out way too long out of the fridge, but I think the name is meant to make their donuts sound tempting. It's really an old-timey diner with old-timey food but good and unpretentious. Funny thing is that it's just a couple of blocks away from the city plaza which is surrounded by pricier eateries catering to the more upscale wine country denizens. But this place is for the rest of us who aren't big on ambiance after a long drive from Mendocino. Short and sweet, Jamie W. had a $7.25 Patty Melt with Fries, and I had a $7.75 Mushroom Cheeseburger with Fries (see photos). No fuss, no muss. Just straight-ahead, affordable grill grub completely unadorned with either aioli or arugula. Just a dill pickle chip. That's it. It hit the spot and nothing more. It doesn't promise to be anything more but grub by George. We were served by a really nice waitress who merely did her job with efficiency and a smile. We didn't want anything more. Well, maybe a donut or two. FOOD - 4 stars...unfancy diner grub done right AMBIANCE - 3 stars...long counter and tables for two dominate with photo montages of local customers on the wall...doesn't get more homestyle than that SERVICE - 4 stars...she was great, no complaints TOTAL - 4 stars...if just for the great name read more

Since Flaky Cream DO-Nuts was closed the last time I was in Healdsburg, I made a point to come up earlier to stop by since I'm still on my best donut quest. I had a bad feeling the donut probably wasn't that great since the entire assortment of donuts looked really blah in the display case, but decided to purchase one anyway. Sadly, the Original Glazed Donut ($0.90, http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/flaky-cream-do-nuts-and-coffee-shop-healdsburg?select=6n764RglQQSf9v9MDivEuw#6n764RglQQSf9v9MDivEuw) was not good at all, and I was really disappointed. However, I did eat the donut the next day, so maybe their donuts need to be eaten the day of. Not even a few seconds in the microwave was able to resusitate it, and the donut became really difficult to chew, and there was no taste. The coffee shop is pretty small, and hidden in the middle of a strip mall. It's about a block from the main downtown Healdsburg area, but not too far of a walk. I wish I had a better experience, since I like to support small businesses, and will have to come back to eat a donut the day of, or try their breakfast/brunch dishes. The cashier was really nice, and there is also plenty of parking in this center. read more

Only place open early to get breakfast and coffee before 7am. Doughnuts are filled right on site, so that's a plus.

Little bit if a wait, but worth it! I love that they have country potatoes or hash browns! I had the corned beef hash and my husband ordered the spicy Mexican eggs Benedict. Friendly service. We sat at the counter. Definitely a locals hangout! We will be back!! read more
