    Dubai

    Ive had treats from here before but never been in. We were graciously offered free samples - of the lychee lemonade (incredible! Really elevates the sweet/tart lemonade style) and the guava donut and a strawberry one i think. So of course we had to go in! I got the dubai chocolate one for my mom and she looooved it! It was a good size too. We also got to generously try the banana cream one - its filled with like banana pudding with a nilla crumb coating. my friend and i wolfed it down!! My husband got the vietnamese coffee and my friend got the lychee lemonade. They both loved their drinks. The people are soooo so nice and welcoming. I told my parents they should stop by too. Its small, not really for hanging out but there was a table. Definitely need to come back: highly recommend!!

    Donuts and sweet pastries
    Millena P.

    Love supporting small pastry shops. Stop by Knead Donuts to satisfy your sweet cravings! Parking: They're located in one of the busiest plazas in Cerritos. There's a large parking lot, but finding a spot can be a hit or miss. Ambiance/Environment: This is a quick grab-n-go location, so there's no indoor or outdoor seating. I visited on a weekday, so it wasn't as busy. They have a small space. The donuts are displayed behind a glass window with labels and prices. Service: We were greeted once we entered. The cashier that assisted us was nice, quick, and efficient. Pastries: It was tempting not to order every single donut. Their donuts are sweet yet delicious. It's perfect enough to satisfy your sweet tooth. I also tried their croissants drenched in a glaze. It was sooo good! I didn't try their coffee, so I'll have to come back hehe. Pricing: Decent prices for unique donuts and other sweet pastries. Highly recommend visiting here to satisfy your sweet tooth!

    *****3.5 stars***** Finally had a chance to check out Knead Donuts, and TBH, thought the donuts here for the most part were just okay. Definitely the most expensive donuts I've bought, and for the price, I thought the donuts would amaze me (especially given the great reviews). I like the fact that they can split a dozen donuts into two boxes of six, which comes out a little cheaper; however, most of the donuts are an upcharge, so I ended up spending $68 for a dozen donuts (not $58). I tried the banana cream donuts and if it wasn't for the banana slices in the middle, I would have thought this was a plain donut with frosting. I also tasted some of the glaze donut, which was also just okay. These donuts look super sweet, but I'm glad they weren't. Would I go back? Maybe for a donuts or two depending on flavors, but definitely wouldn't buy more next time around.

    WOW! Met the owner, great guy! Donuts taste as good as it looks! Definitely would come back for more!!!

    Croissant

    Heard about this place from social media and decided to give it a try. I have been on a hunt for a phenomenal Cronut/doissant in California and I have finally found it! Coming into the little shop I was greeted with politeness. The employee was super sweet. I had told her it was my first time and she so kindly gave me a free croissant. The croissant was flakey and delicious! The glaze on the top was thin and not too sweet. The cookies and cream one was very good. The cream in the middle was not too sweet. My daughter is a huge Dubai chocolate fan and loved the doughnut. She couldn't stop eating! The Cronut was my favorite. I was so happy to finally find a decent Cronut in this state! This is for sure going to be my go to for a Cronut!

    Yummy .... Sugar rush indeed. I think this is a new Location. They are known for fancy, cronut type, fancy donuts. Each cost about $6-7 dollars on average but I got the 6 pack for $32. Prob the most expensive donuts I've ever bought. Tasty but definitely a treat. My fav is the guava flavor. Located in the large strip mall across the street from Cerritos mall. Parking can be tricky on high times, but I found one lucky. I'd go back to the other flavors.

    Vietnamese coffee with taro cream and matching donut
    Jessa O.

    I've been meaning to try Knead and I'm so glad I did! The Vietnamese coffee is AMAZING with the taro cream, it's a very strong tasty flavor! The donut is also yummy and not that sweet! I loved the service he was very helpful with helping me choosing a donut which was "there's no wrong answer" I didn't notice but he also gave me two extra tiny donut holes The place is small but has two tables if it's not busy you can sit down. There's also some seating outside since it's a plaza! Will be coming back!

    Been meaning to try this place out after seeing a post on Facebook. Finally stopped by today. This place is smaller, you walk in and the counter is a few feet in front of you. There was 2 tiny tables to sit and eat at. Inside was clean and donut displayed was neatly organized. So many to choose from it was hard to decide, we ended up with fruity pebbles and maple bacon. The maple bacon one had a syrup dispenser thingy poked into it and you squeeze your syrup when you are ready to eat it . To my surprise they weren't overly sweet, which I'm glad they weren't. Based on the way they looked I thought both would be really sweet. I was a little disappointed in the donut dough itself. Although both tasted good, I am used to donuts being very light and airy, but these seem more of like cake texture. They are a the pricey side , it's $5-7 a donut . The staff was very friendly and patient as we decided which ones we wanted. We do want to go back to try the kronut.

    This is such a cute hidden gem donut shop right around the cerritos mall complex! Donut is so pretty and delish and it smells devine inside the shop! I got the ube donut for $8 and the lady gave me a free little croissant so service was 10/10! They also have some samples for one of the kind idk which one. Will be back, so many trendy and delish flavors to try :) 9.5/10

    Lovely staff serving up delicious treats, both sweet and savory Their mini butters (small glazed Croissants) and donuts are amazing. And their breakfast sandwiches hit the spot so well! Looking forward to my next trip back already

    Tiramisu
    Laurel T.

    I remember back when this place only had one location! It's great to see this place with a shop in Cerritos and two in Long Beach now Parking is in a shared parking lot, but they do have plenty. But this area is filled with a bunch of restaurants. So during lunch time it can be hard to find one As soon as you walk in you are always greeted by the lovely staff The donuts are on the expensive side, and there's so many great ones to pick from. So it adds up quick lol. Each one will run you about 5-8 dollars Also, I'm such a sucker for their robot that goes around and gives out free samples (who doesn't like free samples??) Rosie (yes, the robot has a name) was unfortunately inside because the staff said it was raining earlier in Cerritos. So they brought her inside and plugged her in. Don't worry, Rosie! I'll come back For you. Their donuts really are aesthetically pleasing AND they taste great (I recommend any of their kronuts) I went with Banana cream pie . I don't need to say anything else. A 10/10 An Ube donut Tiramisu donut And the fresh fruit kronut All were delicious, but if I had to pick, I'd go with the banana one Honestly, there wasn't a lot to pick from. They didn't have a huge variety like i remember at the Long Beach locations. Or it could have been because I came around 1 pm and maybe most were sold out. I did end up taking the last Ube and the last banana donut Also, love their Vietnamese coffee. I used to get it all the time before I cut back on caffeine All the flavors here are amazing The store is very clean I love that it's family owned and locally owned and operated. I always see the owner at the shops. So I love they are hands on Come on in and see how delicious the donuts are and try their coffee! They also had signs all over saying how much they love their dogs and they work hard so their dog can have a better life. If you like dogs, then you definitely get bonus points in my book

    Half Dozen of Donuts
    Lyda C.

    We have casually passed this place for at least a year now and finally decided to pop in right before closing, so we were not able to see all of the typical offerings. The front staff woman was super friendly and helpful. Love the friendly neighborhood vibe!

    Variety assortment of donuts.

    There's so many donut options to choose from, something for everyone really. My fav thing to get is definitely the sausage and cheese breakfast croissant with a fried egg. The owner and employees here are so nice and give great recommendations. A nice lil donut shop with some seating and plenty of shopping near by.

The best part is the freshness. They bake fresh all day... so you never get that dry, day-old texture like it's been sitting there since before the Blip (a la Infinity Gauntlet). My secret move is asking "what just came out of the back?"... basically whatever is fresh out of the Quantum Realm, I want it. Anything that fresh tastes wonderful. Of course, my appetite isn't small like Ant-Man when it comes to their donuts so I have to watch my waistline. Maybe I can borrow some Pym particles to shrink my waist. They really have the formula down to a science. Like Tony Stark in the lab level of Iron Man precision. * The Roster: French crullers, cake donuts, rings... I love 'em all. They exist as a chain for a reason. Also... they are open 24 hours. Literal "I can do this all day" energy. Notice the Captain America reference? And the parking is super convenient so you don't have to fight a Civil War just to get a spot. The service is awesome too. The staff is super patient... even when I'm standing there staring at the glass case like The Collector admiring the Infinity Stones. totally mesmerizing. I usually know what I want, but sometimes I have to pause and look at 14 million possible futures just to fill the last spot in the box (Dr. Strange would be jealous). They always smile and never rush me. Love you 3000 Yum Yum. 5 stars!

The staff always greets everyone who walks in and everyone usually gets service fairly quickly. Prices are fair.

They have very few seats within the actual establishment, maybe 10 max. They've been here since I can remember! The parking situation is pretty good. It's thumbs up from me. Thanks for making my Wednesday mornings delicious!

They now have donut holes as well, which was something they did not have before. Get a variety dozen for $5.50 to try your favorites, before buying full Mochinuts. The staff was friendly, no issues at all, the spot inside was clean, minimalist and modern. Nice little spots to enjoy them there if you like or take them to go. My favorites are the Maple and Ube Mochinuts, but really all are pretty good and worth trying to see which ones you will like best. First tried these in Vegas a number of years ago, glad to see they are slowly getting locations around in California. If I had a small complaint, it would be that donuts in general, Mochinut included are getting pretty expensive, but I guess everything is. Enjoy!
