Cash Only! Although Happy Donuts is technically open until 5pm on Saturdays, they were already out of most of their donuts at noon! Out of the small variety they had left, I was able to try: -Cinnamon Roll Donut (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=GDspqTEOy8Dk0MjRWxUM3Q&userid=76vIFZcC7owykCBjMfGVXg): DELICIOUS- I was skeptical about getting this, but it was actually really, really good. The cinnamon flavor was perfect, and this donut was soft and fluffy- a must try! -Buttermilk Bar (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=HQm-KPZCONckOJcdfkr8-Q&userid=76vIFZcC7owykCBjMfGVXg): Good, but nothing special. This was a little too dense, and the middle was slightly dry. I wouldn't get this again. I also got some croissants for my friend, and she really liked those. I will definitely come back earlier in the day to try other donuts! There was plenty of parking in the lot when I came. read more

Cash only which is my only gripe. And yes, I am one of those that will use my CC on a $2 purchase. I like my rewards, yo. Anyway. Was in this neck of the woods because I had my seats steamed at a nearby car wash place. Gavin was hungry. I wasn't. Read good reviews and decided to get Gavin a donut. I actually had $2 in my wallet. He usually gets one donut or donut holes, never amounting to $2. This past Saturday he wanted 2 donuts. I do not know how much it was per but the lady heard me telling Gavin to pick 1 because I only had $2. She ended up giving him the 2 he wanted for $2. Super friendly and welcoming service. I regret that I did not even have a bite. read more

Happy Donuts - Yeah, he ordered two. - Donuts Near Me - San Jose, California

Four stars for any donut shop that makes crullers! This was my first time at this location of Happy Donuts. It was really convenient as I was also picking up a Honey Baked Ham. Overall it was a nice, clean store with friendly service and most importantly THEY HAD CRULLERS!!!! Like the Cupertino location, the donuts and bakery items are good and fresh. This location may not have as many options as the Cupertino store, but they make a better fritter! read more

Happy Donuts - Crullers - Donuts Near Me - San Jose, California

There are raised donut people, cake donut people and buttermilk bar people. There are glazed people, sprinkle people, crumb people and jelly-filled people. And then there's me, the "one of each please" gal! Nothing makes my heart beat faster than seeing a glass case filled with delicious pastries. Even late into the afternoon, the donuts tasted fresh and melted in my mouth as I would have hoped. The apple fritter is to die for! And to top it off, the staff were super friendly and very welcoming. I've been on the hunt for the best donuts in SJ and I'm so happy to have stumbled upon this place - I don't think it gets much better than this! Will happily return! read more

We are a group of men that meet on a weekly basis to study the scriptures, fellowship and pray for one another. AND we have donuts with coffee. It was my turn to buy donuts donuts. I was looking at YELP for some places when I saw Happy Donuts. While it is the wrong driving direction for this event and about a mile farther I still decided to try it out. The guys loved Happy Donuts products! They were a big hit! The size, the look and fluffiness of sugar glacéd, cinnamon, and chocolate donuts was excellent. The sheen on the iced donuts was really beautiful. Service was fast and cheerful. The only negative was at 6:20am the apple fritters were not available. read more

I've been coming to this place for years and I still continue to be impressed with this place. The owner is the sweetest and most kind person ever and the store matches their awesomeness. Not only do the donuts ALWAYS seem fresh but the breakfast sandwiches are to die for ‍ the only comparison I can make is to the scene in Birds of Prey where Harley Quinn does the most just to eat her breakfast sandwich in peace. My Dad and I love Happy Donuts forever and Always!! read more

Def happy after Ive paid a visit to Happy Donuts! The donuts are so fresh, soft and yummy! My kids love this place. My favorite is the maple donuts! I've had coffee here a few times too and it's also good. The ladies that work there are veryyy kind and helpful. Will get the day old donuts too when i see them out. read more

Late afternoon, need donuts? Get them here! Not only do they keep longer hours than most donut shops, but their donuts still taste good late in the day, without needing to be warmed up. I brought home a Chocolate Bar and a Chocolate French, our favorites. They were delicious! I was hoping to take home more of a variety like I saw in the Yelp photos, but it was 3pm. I believe it was the owner who served me and I mentioned I'll try to drop in earlier on the weekend, when there's more to choose from. She asked me what I liked and tossed in 4 free donut holes...excellent customer service! I'll set an alarm to be there earlier, well, okay, I'll try to. In any case, those donuts will be yummy and I'll be HAPPY! read more

Very early morning donut run after drop off at the airport. Owner was kind enough to open the shop a few minutes early for us. Husband ordered a few glazed donuts. As soon as he returned to the car, I opened the box ready to chow down. Husband asked, 'Aren't you gonna wait til we get home??!"Uhhh, no! Why wait? You gotta eat donuts hot off the press! No pussyfooting around! Yup! These were fresh off the fryer and absolutely divine! The dough was perfectly pillowy with a nice spongey give. The glaze was not overly sweet. I liked that the bottom of the donut wasn't covered with glaze. I think I pounded 3 donuts before we got out of the parking lot! Lol!! They were that fantastic! Go get yourself some hot, sweet, pillowy gems!! Outstanding raised glazed here! Get Happy!! read more

As always, friendly service, and for their filled donuts, they fill the donuts on the spot so that they're as fresh as possible. I had a maple donut with custard filling, and it was so light and only $2! I haven't tried their croissant sandwiches because the croissants don't look super great, but I would definitely come back for more donuts. read more

The best donuts I've had. So delicious, doughy and not greasy like the other donuts I've had.

I found this little donut shop on Yelp. I decided to go pick up coffee today and on the way back, I wanted to get some donuts for my daughter. When I got there, there was a line out the door (given the fact that they only allow 3 customers in at a time). The ambience is similar to any other mom and pops donut shop; limited decor, a display for the donuts, a counter and the register. This donut shop did accept zelle, Venmo, and PayPal which was nice. They also had hand sanitizer on the counter for customers to use. I ordered a few items: Regular glazed - to my surprise, this was actually really good. It was light and fluffy. If you've been to Stan's donuts, it similar in size but less dense. I'd actually prefer this one because I can eat more. Stan's flavor is still better, but I like the texture here better. Bear claw - they had a regular size and extra large size with a nice color to it. It didn't look plain/bland. I didn't get to try this one since my husband ate it. His only complaint was it was too small (i should've opted for the bigger one). Pink glaze with sprinkles - I didn't try this but it was visually appealing. My daughter (toddler) lovedddd it. Guava with cream cheese roll - these are very comparable to Porto's from Southern California. I ate these around 2 pm (even though I picked it up at 8am) and they were still really flakey. The guava flavor was strong and the cream cheese was light. If you don't like the guava flavor to overpower the cream cheese, then I wouldn't recommend this for you. I don't like having a heavy cream cheese flavor because it makes it heavy and soggy. So this was perfect for me. Unfortunately, i forgot to take photos! I'll take some the next time I go! read more

Have been coming here for many, many years. The power is super friendly and the doughnuts are delicious!

- if you don't have cash, you can pay via Venmo or Paypal by scanning a QR code. You can also use various other mobile payment methods if you have it set up already. - they only have croissant breakfast sandwiches, no bagels - they have small and large apple fritters! read more

Great place, nice and friendly with a great selection. Good coffee and croissant sandwiches, now taking cards!

I've been here a handful of times thinking it's the same Happy Donuts over in Seven Trees, San Jose. It's not. The donuts are okay if you're in a pinch but with so many other choices it doesn't leave me completely satisfied. read more

We love this place! My wife and I walk here on the weekends as a way to get out of the house during SIP. The donuts are good and the staff is super nice! You can tell they're good people when they take the time to get to know their customers and the customers do the same. Oh and for the parents, did I mention that have sprinkle donuts!... I know it's not the best thing for your kids but let them live a little read more

I've been going to happy donuts for a couple of years now. I've tried most shops in the south bay, including Stan's...and Angie's donuts still win hands down. Pro tips - if you want the best experience, don't go on Friday. If you do, and want a big order, call ahead! Their kitchen is not big enough to reliably handle the massive influx of business they get on friday (because their donuts are awesome). Donut shops i imagine are low profit margin, don't go here late (after 10am) and expect there to be a ton of donuts. If they have to choose between making more donuts and having them go stale and go to waste, vs not making more and having people be sad about lack of donuts...it makes more sense both profit and review wise to be out of donuts. Low inventory is better than low quality. I once saw a lady come in and yell at Angie and team during rush hour on a friday because of how busy and distracted they were. Please don't be that person...they work hard to service as many people as possible. I encourage anyone who's had a less than stellar experience here to go on a Monday through Thursday before 9 am (prime donut time) and update their review Also...get a maple twist if they're available, you won't regret it. read more

This is one of my very favorite places to go in all the land. And I go to a LOT of places! This family here has been like family to me since I can remember. Not only have they served tremendously amazing doughnuts to me including ones they dont make traditionally (like vanilla old fashioned and jelly filled doughnut holes because I thought they would be amazing and I was right), but they've also served me smiles on some of my worst days which really cheered up my life more than I can say. And really, I wish I could say I'm super special for getting this treatment, but I see that same personable and warm reception to everyone that enters this shop. So I will repeat... this is one of my very favorite places to go in all the land. I love you guys!!! Thank you for everything! See you soon!!! read more

One of the best donuts shops I've ever been to! All different flavors and types were fresh and delicious - they even take Venmo, Zelle, or Paypal if you don't have cash. Cake donuts are my fav and their cake was the best I've ever had. Perfectly fluffy, not too dense/spongey, and a tad crispy on the outside. If you're as crazy about cake donuts as me, you should already be on your way there. Super nice owners, will be returning whenever I'm in the area!! read more

Happy Donuts - Happy Donuts - Winchester San Jose - Donuts Near Me - San Jose, California

I can't express how much I love Happy Donuts. It reminds me of childhood visits to the local donut shop with my grandmother. A variety to donuts to choose from. I'm a fan of the weekend visits as that is when they have cruller. The owner seems to know almost everyone who comes in. She has an odd knack for remembering what people order. After a few visits, she knew how I liked my coffee. I sometimes don't even remember how I like my coffee so kudos to her. Other than a cruller, I like the croissant sandwich (egg and cheese). I like that the croissant is flaky and not "bready." Plus, the little Thai chili pepper poked in the top is a nice touch. read more

The best crullers I've ever had. Employees always pleasant. A popular place. Get there early for best selection. read more

Whenever we are getting donuts we go here. Their service is great as are the donuts, and they are always happy to accommodate orders when you make them in advance. Come early because they run out of donuts on the weekends, and make sure you bring cash. read more

Still lOve these dOnuts and the apple fritters are the absolute best!! Not oily and eSpecially delicious when warm. They now take Venmo here which is so great and dangerous for me read more

Happy Donuts is fantastic! I was in a bind when they opened at 5 AM and needed 10 dozen donuts without prior notice by 6 AM. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. I was excited to see such a large variety of flavors and the men's Bible group knocked out the donuts within 15 minutes. I appreciated their willingness to provide fresh donuts with a positive attitude, I arrived at my venue ahead of time and they were delicious! Thank you helping me start the day out right for our team! read more

They were so nice! The woman and her son (?) Were running the front of the store and they were so kind and reassuring that everything was clean (covid19 pandemic time). We only dropped in because we happened to be in the neighborhood cut this kind of service will bring me back in the future. read more

Get tasting donuts & great service! Highly recommend all of the donuts, but the croissants are also fabulous. Love supporting this family business over the years. read more

I love seeing their smiles in the morning! My kiddos love donuts and happy donuts never disappoints. Even when it's closing time and you need a dozen for a birthday party! We picked up a full box decorated with fun stickers! Thanks guys read more

Good donuts, great service. One of my daughter's go-to place for breakfast. I like their cinnamon roll and croissant. read more

I did it!!!!My once every ten year donut!!! Classic jelly or cream filled donuts! Loads of sugar and calories! Yeah! Real straight up simple coffee no frills! Old school service with non-schmoozeI. I'll bet its Keystone coffee from San Jose itself! Yum. Sugar yum! Glaze and chocolate! Yum' go! go! Yum! read more

Advice, get a card reader from Square or something like that. This whole Venmo/PayPal thing at check out may be saving you 2-3% in fees but it's not a good look. It's 2019 for crying out loud. Other than that, always great service and great donuts! read more

This place has yummy donuts! My favorite is their round chocolate donut, it's so light and fluffy and the chocolate isn't overly sweet, it's such a delicious combo. Their glazed and sugar coated donuts are just as fluffy and delicious. read more

Favorite donut place! I love how their donuts are very light compared to other donut places. I always get their glazed, old fashioned, and cake. They're all great, but I particularly love the cake. Unlike other places, their cake has a thin, crispy outer layer. Their glazed/ donut holes are also one of a kind. You can tell by the color that they're lighter and sweeter. I've gone to Happy Donuts on De Anza, and man there's a difference. The service in Winchester is much better too. Cash, Venmo, and PayPal only. read more

I have been going to this family owned & operated donut shop since it opened over 20 years ago.The service and donuts are both excellent. Much love for the classic glazed and the jelly filled - always fresh donuts. One note they sell-out early. I should have reviewed them years ago! read more

I love this place!!! I recommend it to everyone that asked me where I get my donuts from. The owner and her husband are a great team. read more

Great spot to pop in and grab a quick treat for yourself! This shop is located between a Pizza Guys and a flower shop in one of the strip malls on Winchester that hasn't gotten a fancy upgrade as of yet. Parking is easy and there is plenty available in front of the shop. The inside is pretty unremarkable, but don't let that turn you off from this place. The donuts are pretty good, the coffee is solid, and the prices are fantastic. The last time I was there, I tried their blueberry, apple fritter, and old-fashioned chocolate glazed donuts. They were all great; the only downside is that (like every donut shop for some reason) their coffee was so hot that I couldn't drink it until a while after I had finished my donuts. If you're hankering for a donut and you're rolling down Winchester, stop in and try Happy Donuts. It's a solid shop with great prices and hot coffee! read more

This is my favorite donut shop since we moved to the south bay a few years ago. They have cherry glaze for my kids, which is seemly rare around here. Also they have butter croissants which are great. Staff is efficient and the place is always clean, warm and welcoming. Donuts are great too by the way. read more

I have to come everyday before I go home because Angie makes the best Double Egg and Cheese Croissant and when her donuts come out hot and fresh I can't leave without one! Love that they take Zelle and venmo too. read more

Donuts Made With Love Service Served With Joy. -YELPA! I am a huge Donuts and Ice Cream lover and don't mind spending money on especially good quality and exceptional donuts and ice cream. When I was living in Campbell my sons and I made a faithful weekend excursion here, it was our family tradition. We've had many donuts in our lifetime and Happy Donuts at THIS location is by far THE best. (not all Happy Donuts are created equal, trust me when I tell you this!) They're made fresh every day! Their donuts are moist, dense or light when it should. They are perfectly shaped; never overly glazed, overly sweet, greasy or dry. I love that they offer a variety of donuts i.e. cake, cruller, french cruller, long johns, old fashion, jelly, Boston cream and bear claws and a variety of toppings i.e. plain, glaze; chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, maple glaze; coconut, peanuts and sprinkles. They are also the only bakery I've visited with a variety of perfectly round donuthole flavors; chocolate frosted, glaze and powder. The coffee is pretty good and they have many other drink options such as orange juice, milk, hot chocolate, apple cider and fruit juices. They not only take the time to make and shape their donuts to perfection but they also have exquisite service. They are so friendly and welcoming! They make you feel like you are at home and you don't want to leave the kitchen! Since I moved to the East Bay I have not been able to find a donut shop that compares even closely so my family and I no longer take those wonderful weekend trips to "our" donut shop so we don't make any trip to the bakery unless we are visiting the Campbell area. read more
