Fresh donuts made daily in-house by a cute mom and pop family. They never keep old donuts for tomorrow. Love that! They have a wide array of flavors and everything is solid. Sprinkled, sugared, glazed, filled - you name it. Staff is nice and donuts aren't all they have here! I pick up muffins and other goodies for my niece and her friends sometimes, and they love it. read more

WARNING: Do Not Support This Business - Deceptive and Illegal Surcharges I am writing this to strongly warn the community against supporting this establishment. I used to be a regular customer, frequently coming in to buy half a dozen to a dozen donuts, breakfast sandwiches, and hot chocolate. I usually paid in cash and never had an issue. However, recently paying with my Visa debit card via Apple Pay revealed a deeply dishonest and crooked side to how they run their business. This establishment is actively taking advantage of its customers by illegally charging a $0.50 fee on all debit card transactions. The Facts: Why This is a Scam It is important for consumers to know their rights. While merchants are legally permitted to pass along credit card processing fees under specific conditions, they are strictly prohibited from doing so with debit cards. * Debit Cards (Illegal to Surcharge): Under federal regulations and major card network rules (Visa and Mastercard), businesses cannot charge a convenience fee or surcharge for using a debit card. This applies whether you enter a PIN or run it as credit. * Credit Cards (Legal to Surcharge): Merchants are allowed to add a surcharge to credit card transactions in most states (capped around 3% to 4%), provided it is clearly disclosed to the customer. By blanketing a $0.50 fee across all cards, including debit, this business is directly violating federal guidelines and breaching their merchant agreement with their payment processors. Untrustworthy and Appalling Customer Service What makes this situation horrendous is their blatant disregard for doing the right thing. When I directly confronted the staff about why they were illegally surcharging a debit card, they had the audacity to smile and simply say, "That's how we do it here." They are fully aware of what they are doing and are proud of conning their customers. They have likely been doing this for years, operating under the insulting assumption that their customers are too uninformed to notice or care. Take Your Business Elsewhere We all work diligently for our hard-earned money. Choosing where to spend it is how we support our local community. Funneling that money into a business that repays its customers with deceptive, illegal, and morally bankrupt practices is unacceptable. Do not let them take advantage of you. I strongly urge everyone to wake up to these scamming practices, check your receipts, and stop supporting this business. They do not respect their customers, they do not respect the law, and they do not deserve your hard-earned money. read more

Very helpful, nice service. They're great for their sandwiches, but not so much for their donut selection. read more

Great menu with lots of options. Freshest, softest donut I've ever had (a simple sugar twist). My iced latte was amazing. Lovely staff and wish I lived closer because I'd be a regular for sure. read more

This donut shop is located across the street of my dentist - Le Chic Dentist. Of course I'd be craving something sweet after a cleaning, so I decided to stop by and pick up a few treats. It looked like many other items were bought out earlier as there wasn't a filled tray - but that's a good sign! I went with the glazed donut and maple donut - my usual favorites. I finished the maple donut in traffic - taste was great. I look forward to finishing the other donut soon. Another thing to note - parking lot is small. Definitely be patient when driving in and out. read more

Fresh and Fluffy is how I would describe that first bite of a glaze twist. I had a little extra time before work, I found this place on Google Maps. Cute, cozy, family owned type of shop. A Dozen was $19.50. My coworkers and I truly enjoyed them. Service was quick, they accept apple pay as well. read more

Popped in on a whim & was not disappointed. Upon walking in you will see a large seating area & a large menu, they have something for everyone. Even simple things like medicines. We were greeted by a sweet woman who seemed pleased to help us. I will start off with the old fashioned cake donut (not usually my thing, my boyfriend ordered it but I had a taste & it was delish). Next up was the blueberry filled donut...oh my lord, it was SO YUMMY, I've never had a blueberry filled donut, it was a 10/10 for me, it wasn't too sweet it was just perfect. My boyfriend's one downfall is the way the donut was filled. Typically we get donuts that are filled with a pipping bag but this one was cut in half. Not a big deal for me but I know some people have preferences. Lastly the ham & cheese croissant, it was pretty top tier for me, it was HUGE in my opinion, I shared with my boyfriend & still got full, she was able to warm it for me as well! LOVE LOVE LOVE. I will be returning! read more

This is my local spot. The employees are really nice, especially the two sisters. They offer a lot of options, both in terms of donuts and other menu items though I've only ever had the donuts. Their old fashion and honey buns are my favorite! There is a small parking lot shared by all the businesses. Interior has plenty of seating and is kept very clean. read more

Delicious donuts!! Cute little donut shop. Offers coffee and sandwiches. Staff was friendly.

$5 for one of the best, largest, and most filling jalapeño ham and cheese croissants I've had. They're killing it! Second time stopping by here to do work while waiting for a chore to be done, and honestly I love them. read more

If anyone asks me to bring a box of donuts, I come here. Let me tell you, when I do, I always get people asking me where the donuts came from. This bakery also has these small and delicious creme puffs that are 4 for $1. If prices change when you're reading this then whoops! But right now, that's what they're going for. They have the usual donut shop variety but they also do croissant sandwiches and boba here. I believe they may also do freshly squeezed juices. read more

Great food, great prices, nice people. Love this Jolly Donut. This is a local spot near my house. Easy to walk to. Normally get the croissant, Bacon egg and cheese, jalapeño, toasted. Donut holes are great too read more

Great service and value! Used the app TooGoodToGo and got all this for $6. Still tasted good given the context. Their normal prices are already very affordable though. I just can't resist a good deal lol. read more

Completely ignored my order and giving the wrong food out to the wrong people. Then they blame the customer for taking the wrong food. I had to wait so long my coffee got cold. read more

I come in here multiple times a week and the quality of service here is outstanding! The coffee and food is priced very reasonably (hence why I can come here multiple times a week!!) . I live in the neighborhood and I will say, compared to the other coffee shop close by this one surpasses it. It has a cozy old-fashioned feel to it which feels similar to a vintage cafe/diner and is super spacious. It really is so cool I don't know how to explain it. The lady who mainly works afternoons knows my order and promptly prepares it for me every time!! I've met all of the employees and I love all of them. The lady I mainly see is so sweet and runs the business amazingly. The COFFEE is SOOO good!!!!!!!!! I wish I could give 10 stars!!! read more

I'm not a fan of their donuts. They might as well buy their donuts from a local supermarket because that's what they taste like. Low-cost ingredients and preservatives. read more

Stopped by Jolly Donut to grab a quick pick-me-up while I am running errands for the day. Ordered an iced vanilla latte, an iced mocha latte, a buttermilk maple donut and a sugar twist. I was pleasantly surprised by how delicious the two coffee drinks tasted. Neither was too sweet and the flavors all balanced perfectly. Espresso shots were fresh also. The two donuts were great. It was obvious they hadn't been sitting out all day. The woman behind the counter was very sweet and thoughtful. She made sure our coffee drinks were made to our liking - confirmed the number of espresso shots and type of milk for each drink. Overall great experience and I'd come back when I'm looking for this type of vibe. read more

This place is exactly what you'd expect from a local business. I try to support small mom & pop stores whenever I can, and there are so many donut places in the Venice area. I've stopped by this place a couple times on my way to work to buy a dozen assorted donuts, and they're a hit every time! I get a little worried whenever I try a new spot bc stale donuts are the worst, but this place has had soft regular glazed donuts when I've gone. Most recently, I stopped by to get some donuts for my friends, and they had these adorable heart-shaped donuts for Valentine's Day! How cute! The heart donuts tasted good too! read more

Jolly Donut - Super cute Valentines Day heart donuts in February!! - Donuts Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I can always count on this establishment to have my favorite Donut that is hard to find else where. They make the Donut perfectly. However, sometimes the Donut lacks glaze thus leaving just a plain bland taste. Nonetheless, it's still my favorite Donut and it's hard to find because the ingredients are so expensive. I decided not to post a photo of the Donut or even mention it's name because I don't want to get anyone addicted to this amazing Donut. Those who are in love with this particular Donut will know which one I'm talking about For everyone else, good luck in figuring out my favorite Donut read more

Food was awesome and the worker is very nice and friendly. I do plan to visit this place if I'm close by this area again.

Great place for donuts or breakfast and lunch sandwiches. I've always received good service here. The croissants they use for their sandwiches are pretty dang good. You can add jalapeños and/or avocado as toppings to any sandwich. read more

This has become our go to donut place. And the kids like the boba too! A great place for classic, reasonably priced donuts!

You know when you take a bite into a donut and you feel a hair tugging from your teeth and lips.....and it's still connected to the donut?!?! Phucking disgusting. It was baked into the donut! BOTTOM LINE: This place doesn't follow California State Board rules and regulations for working in a sanitary environment. Nor do they follow food safety rules about hair being tied back. The black/dark brown hair was around 3-4 inches long. Someone brought in donuts to the office a few days ago. It was a nice gesture. I waited a few days to ask them where the donuts came from. Didn't want to offend them as they were doing a nice thing. This is to want others as well as Jolly Donuts that CA.gov will be receiving a report. read more

Classic donuts, Food great, great ambiance and friendly employees. Can't ask for more

I have tried several other donut shops in the area and this is the freshest. It is clean, the door is open so you don't have to touch it, and the customer service is friendly. Coming back soon! read more

Jolly Donut - So good could not wait to take the pic! - Donuts Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Called Jolly donuts but the sandwiches are my absolute favorite! (The donuts are amazing too). But there are so many options or deli sandwiches and croissants. I must add all the drinks are also super amazing. One of my favorite iced coffees. The Thai tea boba is to die for. Highly recommend. Check it out on the way to work in the morning. Thank you to the lovely lady who runs this joint. She is so kind, fast and amazing ! read more

Amazing donuts and croissants. Great prices too. Always support small businesses. Maple bar is my favorite!

This place is your super solid donut shop. I got the croissant egg cheese sandwich with avocado(made to order) and it was delicious. Nothing fancy, but just classically good. They threw in two donut holes in the bag for free and I fell in love. If I am ever in the area, I will definitely be back. read more

I really like this place! I'm a fan of Jolly Donuts. The people working there are nice, and they remember you and your order if you show up regularly. The donuts are freshly made, and they are flaky or fluffy (depending on the style). I purchased 18 donuts for a celebration at my office, and my coworkers really enjoyed the donuts, as well. My favorite donut from this location is the chocolate twist, with the chocolate old-fashioned as a close second. Also, I really enjoy their breakfast sandwiches. For $3.85, you can get a nice, flaky croissant sandwich, with egg, ham, bacon, and cheese. For $3.50, you get the same sandwich on a bagel. They make the sandwiches very quickly, and they taste pretty good. There is also a self-serve coffee station. *NOTE: They charge for coffee refills, and they do not give a discount if you bring in your own cup. As for parking, there is a very small lot at the corner of Sawtelle and Venice. The spots are at a weird angle, but there always seems to be one spot available when I stop by. I'll be back. It's a convenient location with good food at reasonable prices. I wish they made cronuts, too. *NOTE: There is a $10 minimum to pay by credit card. read more

Jolly Donut has great donuts, and I'm not really even a fan of donuts. Fluffy and soft and delicious. Their coffee cake is super good too! I got a sandwich from here and that was delicious as well. Very friendly, family owned business next to Nuevo Look (great, reasonably priced haircuts) and the Fatburger at the corner shops. They have seating inside as well, if necessary, but my son and I always take our order to go with a few extra to enjoy the next morning. I'm so glad we found this place. Support small, family-owned businesses! read more

Great food at a very very reasonable price, friendly and attentive service, wide variety, and the Vietnamese iced coffee is 10/10.

Worst customer service , whoever was in charge of the store goes to the back 3 customers come in and go out without the associate noticing after saying hello to get the workers attention she gives attitude sorry I can't help anyone I'm making drinks ( we get it don't give attitude if you are understaff or bring one more person to handle and help out the customers ) read more

The cream puffs were wonderful. My first time trying them and I differently will go back for more. The cream in side is just like the wonderful cream puffs I got in New York. read more

The donuts here are comparable to most donut spots on the westside. They're not that great, but they get the job done. What I really liked about this specific donut shop was the service! The cute, friendly little guy at the counter was so happy. When does this ever happen at a donut shop?! Almost never. I would go back just to hang out with him. They're also open 24/7! If the door is not open, you just knock on the little side window and someone will come over to serve you. read more

Friendly service, low prices. I love to stop off here as a little reprieve from my normal bus route. The donuts are standard, but I come here for the iced coffee and boba drinks- most of these drinks can be made lactose-free with non-dairy creamer for no extra charge! read more

It's around 8:30 on a Friday night (3/18), I'm glad this place is still open. The place is really clean, and I had walked in there only with the aim to get a donut for myself. The nice girl that worked there was attentive and asked how she could help me right off the bat. I got the chocolate donut with peanuts on top and it wasn't too bad. Unlike some places, the donut didn't taste stale or old. What really gave this place the extra stars for me is the FRIENDLY service! Apparently I had dropped a dollar bill, and the girl that worked there went outside to find me to return it to me. For me, that earns my business to go back there again. To have an honest worker return even just a dollar to me when they could have kept it. So definitely thumbs up to this place to that nice worker. read more

Great donuts, even have blueberry jelly, good assortment, one of the best donut shops in town.

Just tried this place for the first time and it's by far the best sandwich I have ever had. I got the Turkey on a croissant as well as a pineapple mango boba. The prices are amazing. read more

Legit good donuts here. Not greasy, fresh, light and airy on the inside. I've been searching for a solid local donut like this for AGES. As always, I'm happy and sad when I find places like this. Happy because of the increase of donut consumption that will happen because they are close to home, and sad... for the same reason. read more
