    Wow! I'd never thought to try a taro based donut but it's a crazy combination. The texture is so packed but moist and the flavors really come through this way. For parking, I'd recommend trying to find street parking. Would def go back!

    It was my first time here and these are the best donuts I've ever had! Service was super fast and the donuts were so fresh! It's a very cute spot to grab coffee and eat donuts!

    Made fresh while you wait, absolutely warm and wonderful! First time bring my husband to Holey Grail and he was very happy with the donuts and coffee. He got his usual black drip.amd I ordered a Chai Tea Latte. For donuts, we ordered four and shared. We ordered the Original Sin (Classic), Chocolate Crunch (Classic), Wild Guava (Seasonal), and Peanut Butter Cup (Seasonal). All wete excellent! My husband's favorite waa the Wild Guava. For me, they were all too good for a favorite! Tasting Box section on the menu are their seasonal donuts. This changes monthly! I have never had one repeat yet! Service is always friendly and helpful! Each visit I am more impressed with their donuts!

    Super cute donut shop on second street! But what sets them apart from the res?! these donuts are made with taro and fried in coconut oil! Vegan and so delicious. Holey Grail originated from HI and brought over some delicious treats. All are made to order. What changes on each type of donut are the glazes and toppings. My first time trying and I went for the wild guava with edible flowers. When ready, I was confused looking for the wild guava in the box my sister ordered since I didn't see any with edible flowers. Inquired at the counter and the guy stated they had run out of flowers. It would be nice if I had been told beforehand... I may have ordered another flavored donut. Nevertheless, we all sat at a cool table looking outward to second street and sampled a couple of flavors.

    My go-to donut spot, Holey Grail makes you feel a little bit better indulging in an "unhealthy" treat. At first it does taste way different than your usual donut but you get used to it, the dough is made of taro and cacao then fried in coconut oil! Holey Grail really takes pride in their ingredients used and its mostly sourced from Hawaii! When you order, they make the donuts fresh to order so it takes around 5-10 minutes for your donuts to be made. I recommend eating them right away and it will literally melt in your mouth. There is a decent amount of seating inside and outside to relax and wait for your donuts. As for the donuts itself, I recommend getting the tasting box to get a flavor you really like. I've tried the Cosmic Churro which tastes like your average churro, Lilokai which was sweet and just the right amount of tart, Pandan was pretty good and their hot singles and Original Sin are good options too, you can't go wrong. My ultimate favorite is their Miso Honey though, that one is outrageously good. Shoutout Robby for holding the store down too!

    Such amazing, fresh, melt in your mouth delicious donuts!! I absolutely love this place. Everyone who works at this location is so kind and sweet and helpful. The donuts are freshly made and so unique, delicious with tons of exciting flavors and rotating/seasonal options as well! The coffee and chai here is also so delicious. There are some seating options both outside and inside if you want to enjoy your donut and coffee at the shop while people watching on 2nd st. Absolutely love this place!!

    Taro based donuts! Each donut is made to order and dipped individually by hand. Very interesting process of making them and fun names : original sin, hot single, PB cup, Hail Mary and lilikoi. You can get an assortment box from 4 pieces to a dozen. Friendly and patient service: it's not easy deciding which one to NOT get. Also got iced Hawaiian vanilla latte and and iced Hawaiian chocolate drink. One bathroom but no changing table for infants or toddlers. Lot of merchandise including coffee beans and shirts, bags, mugs, hats etc... Open air seating but our group took up the one long table (10 adults). Many more stools available. I really enjoyed the lilikoi or passion fruit donut. You can get a pack of donut holes dipped in one flavor I suppose.

    Delicious donuts made of taro! I'd say texture-wise, they feel like a hybrid of cake and mochi donuts. They are definitely unique so you ought to try them for yourself! I loved the donuts but I'm not a big fan of their coffee and matcha drinks because they are dairy-free and use macadamia nut milk and I do not like the taste of macadamia nut milk combined with coffee or matcha. It just doesn't work for me. I'll go back for the donuts but I'll skip the beverages..

    Really excited to see Holey Grail has arrived in Long Beach! I first tried their donuts in Honolulu, and these mini treats are just as amazing. Each one is packed with flavor, making you wish you had ordered a dozen instead of just one or two. Given their size, I'd recommend two donuts per person. They bake everything fresh to order and offer a wide variety of flavors, and the staff is welcoming and helpful when recommending what to try. With plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, it's also a great spot to work remotely or catch up on emails. Also make sure to check out their cute merch items when you're waiting on your order!

    I swear we've seen this movie before but the grail is something you don't have to sacrifice your limbs for. It does hurt the wallet though when you realize the box and portion is the size of said wallet. Hey it was good though! I think I'd have to sacrifice something just to get a spot around Belmont Shores though. Obviously it's not a bakery issue but who would've thought an 11AM visit on a Tuesday would still compel finding parking in a residential neighborhood 2 blocks away. The takeaway here though; nothing feels better after walking a bit in the blazing sun when the place literally slaps you with immediate AC and a cool fan. ‍‍ The vibe and service matches each other perfectly which is amazing to me; vibrant but chill, loud in appearance but classy in execution and approachable. What surprised even more is that the cashier actually knew what the food profiles of each little donut provided. Expertise even though she said she was only working there for a month or two? Slay girl. Especially when I heard the menu changes almost every week. Now the prices don't seem off-putting at first considering we're entering this establishment with an expectation of what a donut looks like both in appearance and size. Let alone I never would've expected that they glaze, style and the donuts on the spot when you order it. All that frosting caking up a fresh pillow of a donut But guys/gals... that expectation caught me by surprise. The sizes between the price to portion is... sub. I want to say it has something to do with the taro-based dough they used. But when I got my box of what was four donuts thinking there was only two until I opened the box; Miso Honey (funny enough miso and honey do go together), Food of the Gods (looked plain but those cacao nibs were awesome), Pandan Paradise (pandan, mango and passionfruit? Yo chill) and Tropical Swirl (swirl of strawber-SWEET, it was too sweet). I put these in order of favorites, starting with my most favorite. Premium flavors but definitely something for an occasion than a frequent visit.

    This is one of my favorite new places. Donuts are made per order so very fresh and presentation is excellent. I'm big on customer services so the intentional connection with us was great. The vibes were vibing here. It wasn't busy when we arrived so we got our donuts right away. As someone who isn't big on sweets this is now my new favorite dessert place. All of the donuts we got were so delicious. The wild guave licking fingers good. The Rick Martinez the layers of flavors was exceptional. This is the second time I've got the reincarnated donut and I'm so happy about it!

    After the Yelp event, I decided to purchase coffee sticks and candy bars. The review below is based on purchases made and not the Yelp event. I viewed the merchandise, but I did not purchase any, yet. The coffee was bold and dark with a nice scent. I made sure to get that scent before putting cream inside. I loved the milk chocolate and dark chocolate bars, I liked the flavor of the milk chocolate a little more. The coffee packs and chocolate bars were not cheap, I am absolutely not rich, yet I would buy them again. The transaction was quick and once again, the staff was very friendly and answered all questions I had. This shop is on the popular Second street in Long Beach, some days, sometimes, it can be harder to find parking, plan ahead. I look forward to trying more coffee and more donuts, which are fresh and refreshing. The Staff here is awesome, so I am happy to write this review.

    Hello vegan-friendly, made-to-order, taro-based donuts! I didn't even know taro-based donuts is a thing but here they are at Holey Grail. Strolled in with friends at this Belmont Shore location. I was instantly intrigued by the Pandan Paradise because I'm super Pinay like that. Good mix of tropical flavors from the pandan, coconut, mango, and lime zest. The donut is warm when I received it and the texture was light, fluffy, and a slight toasty bite from the caramelization from being fried in coconut oil. Visually eye-appealing too! https://yelp.to/HCHJScBe_V I paired this with a Hot Hawaii Vanilla Chai made with macadamia milk. IMHO it was lukewarm upon receipt but the flavor was good. https://yelp.to/BqY_iTafGV Small patio area to enjoy our sweet treats. Great for people watching. I'm a fan! I've had the opportunity taste other flavors on a different visit. But it was for a Yelp Elite Experience which is not reflected in this particular review. But that experience can be read here: https://www.yelp.com/biz/apihm-on-the-coast-yelp-experience-at-holey-grail-donuts-long-beach?hrid=fu5vwru6ud6YxJeq-xvzeQ&utm_campaign=www_review_share_popup&utm_medium=copy_link&utm_source=(direct) Note to self: Not all flavors are vegan. Some may contain honey or bee pollen. Online ordering indicates those items. Staff can also help let you know too.

The location itself is fairly small, and parking can be a little rough since it's in a popular area with limited metered parking. It's probably not somewhere I'd personally plan to sit and hang out for a while, but they do offer online pickup through DoorDash, and the service was quick (for reference, I went at around 8:45am on a Sunday). The employees were also friendly and helpful when we had questions about the menu. What really stood out to me was the flavor! The drinks are rich, flavorful, and really well-balanced. It's not bitter, overly sweet, or too plain. Everything we tried tasted consistent and intentional. The prices are a little on the higher side, but based on the quality, I think it's worth it. I'd definitely come back, especially for the Madagascar Vanilla Latte, the matcha, or even to just try something new on the menu!

    I've been a longtime fan and customer of Colossus and was super bummed when they had to shut down…read moretheir seating. I was so excited to try out their new and improved space for dinner! The decor is cozy and chic, and I like that they kept it spacious instead of cramming a ton of tables and chairs in. I especially loved the little table lamps! Our server was very nice and helpful when we had questions. Caesar salad: I LOVED this. Perfect balance of flavors with perfect crunch. Word of warning is that it is anchovy heavy (including anchovy filets on top), so if you like to pretend the anchovy aspect of Caesar salads doesn't exist, this might not be for you! Roasted chicken: Loved the crunch on this too, and the salad and polenta were nice additions. I think the polenta was my favorite part of this dish lol. Kale pistou pizza (asked for no onions): My least favorite dish. We didn't realize it was vegan but as someone who generally likes vegan food, it just lacked flavor and felt very dry overall. The sourdough crust was good, at least. Peach mess dessert: Omg, the star of the show! Such an amazing dessert top to bottom, I loved the mix of textures and flavors. I could eat this every day! I probably would've given this 4 stars due to the pizza being that bland, but the dessert really elevated this whole meal. Can't wait to see all their different menus throughout the seasons! I hope they add a happy hour soon and I hope to see the return of their patio at some point!

    Lovely brunch at the newly opened cafe portion of Colossus bakery…read more Stopped by the bakery first to grab their Cardamom roll. Which was delicious very "cardamomy" flavored, crispy layers. Dusted with Swiss pearl sugar. Just really yummy. Saw the almond croissant. Said oh will stop again on our way out. BIG mistake. Of course they were gone by then. Opted for the sticky toffee bun. She recommended warming before eating. What a nice little treat to share with my husband after dinner! Back to the cafe. Newly added as an adjoining space was vacated next to the bakery. Industrial modern interior. Spacious with 20(?) tables. Partners opted for the 2 egg breakfast. Eggs cooked perfectly as ordered. One ordered an omelet. Beautifully made. Would make Jacques Pepin or Thomas Keller proud. Thick sliced bacon. Thick sliced multigrain toast. Small side of spring mix salad adorned with watermelon radish. Very nice entree if you're an egg lover. Shared the French fries. They're like the ones my grandma made. Thick sliced potatoes deep fried. Crispy outside. Soft inside. Brings back pleasant memories. Get these if you're a French fry fan. The mushroom dip (think French dip with variety of sautéed mushroom in lieu of beef) was GREAT! Mushroom not overcooked, Muenster cheese draped atop. Crusty baguette bread. Although the dipping sauce was vegan based, the roasted mushroom base added enough umami for a deeply flavored dip. My only complaint was the clusters of oyster mushrooms were laid horizontally following the length of baguette. Which presents well but was a bit challenging to bite through. I dunno, maybe my teeth aren't sharp. Overall an outstanding dish. So my dilemma now is when to return to try the other menu items which didn't make my first cut. Parking is....well ya know...it's 2nd St. So the driver needs to be a good parallel parker. Cute shoes optional but be prepared to walk.
