Great quick stop for a Saturday morning! A no frills place with dinner vibes that delivers delicious fresh donuts at a excellent no fills price. The crullers were so airy and light, almost hallow inside-- I loved it! However if you're looking for a more hefty, cakey donut, this is probably not it. The thai tea was great too but no adjustments were possible. read more

Delicious goodies at this place! Quick, friendly, in-person pick up options for breakfast.

Best buttermilk bars in the area. We love coming in right before they close cuz the lady behind the counter always throws in extra free donuts. :) NOTE: CASH ONLY peeps. read more

Definitely 5 stars. From the fast moving line (especially in the morning), to the helpful man who served me my 3 dozen donuts, to the EXTRA big donuts he threw in for free...I was so grateful! I will definitely be back again, if only to be greeted with a friendly smile by the donut server. Really though, bright and early in the morning, and a happy experience at the donut shop? That's worth 6 stars. Their donuts are yummy, very filling, and they have multiple coffee pots available with varied flavors and decaf options too. Don't be deceived if the place looks closed - it's most likely open...it's just a little dim around the area. Hope you grab a chocolate twist donut for me. Enjoy! read more

This place has just the right amount of do it selection and the donuts are delicious, but the most awesome thing about this place was the customer service! I went in with my bf and right when we walked in we got greeted by a nice smiling lady. When we were taking some time to figure out what donuts we wanted she did not rush us at all and was smiling the whole time. She was really sweet and offered some suggestions. Will come back here for sure! read more

Oops! I ate all of the donuts. They were sooooo delicious, I just didn't give myself enough time for a photo op! (Too busy scarfing!) Had a big craving for donuts. I rarely indulge but I just HAD to have one, or two...ok, three!! Ordered a big cinnamon roll, glazed old fashioned and French cruller, and each was sugary deliciousness! The cruller was super thin and hollow, so if you want a heartier donut, go for the cinnamon roll, a fluffy swirl of cinnamon sweetness. Or, try an old fashion - perfectly firm on the outside and soft inside! The lady was so nice; she threw in a huge apple filled donut that must have weighed a pound!! How nice was that?!! Okay, so I ended giving that one to a friend! (mucho donuts!) I definitely will return to Manley's for the cinnamon roll alone- yummmmm!! Each donut cost $1.50 and was worth every penny!! I promise to take pictures next time!! read more

Fast. Good hours, and better than average donuts. I will continue to use Manley Donuts.

Love the goodies here. The owner is such a sweet man who remembers all his regulars. Donuts are ALWAYS fresh, Parking isn't an issue ever. Personally I love the decaf here and the crullers are delicious but who am I kidding ITS ALL GOOD. read more

I really love this place and so does my son. We try and go every weekday and when we do go, i get my boy 5 donut holes. The guy that works behind the counter is nice and friendly and the selection of donuts is good. Great place for donuts! read more

Great donuts and great service, what more could you ask for in life! I would definitely recommend this place!

Oh, I tried this place. Right on the same strip as my Barber's and Bibo's and the Beezies (and Brodies) that do yoga at the other end. Nothing out of the ordinary. I usually get a bag of four and a strawberry Nesquik. The lady gave me an extra cinammon crumb. They're big and tasty. Just like your thighs if you're not careful and start taking home treats in a pink box instead of a small bag. read more

This place has good variety and selection. The owner helped us and greeted us. Got 4 donuts and she included another free chocolate donut as well! The cinnamon twist has cinnamon filling inside. 4 donuts was about 5$ read more

Love, love, love this place best donuts in town, always fresh and yummy!!! Staff is very friendly and gives great customer experience! My kids favorite spot for sure read more

Airy, crispy, fluffy, soft, delicious, flavorful, and classic. These donuts brought me back to my childhood. We ordered a dozen donuts, and of course, there was a baker's dozen. It costs $.45 for specialty donuts like bars, jelly filled donuts, and twists. We were also lucky because the manager hooked it up with an extra chocolate bar. read more

Clean place with good doughnuts and a few coffee choices to select from and plenty of seating. We came here while waiting for a table at Toast and the kids loved it. This is a CASH ONLY place, but they do provide an ATM for customers. read more

I love these donuts , down the street ; they habe some other stuff as well, and they always give you a free donut as an add on .

It's a donut shop nothing crazy. Came for a big order halloweeen weekend...no specialty ones like orange frosting but no t big deal. Folks were nice but a little pushy...I was about to buy the remaining regular donuts when a kid walked in with his mom. I said they could order first because as a kid picking the right donut is key and I didn't want to ruin that or have the mom go to another shops. The lady said no get what you want but I had confirmed they weren't making anymore. I'm glad I pushed back as the little guy picked one that wasn't gonna be there if I had gone first. They were really mice in giving me a few extra donuts one the size of my face. read more

The new owners have decided that "screw your customers " is a good policy. $3 for an average donut? I won't be back. This place will be out of business in a year. read more

This is a 5 star classic donut shop. All the basics but so much better than any other place. Not too sweet and super soft.

CA$H ONLY!!!!!! There is an ATM inside but just bring cash to avoid the transaction fee/headache lol. Anyway, this place is the perfect little donut shop for those who aren't into the whole "crazy donut" fad that currently has taken over. If you want your classic assortment of yummy, sugary delights, come here! We love grabbing our pink box of treats every once in a while. read more

To understand my five-star rating, you need an idea of my grading rubric for donuts. 1 star: nasty, tasteless, stale and/or sweaty (think 7-11 at the end of the day) 2 stars: mildly nasty, tasteless, stale, and/or sweaty (7-11 at the beginning of the day) 3 stars: decent donuts, probably from a big chain that stays open for 24 hours 4 stars: mom and pop shop with solid donuts 5 stars: mom and pop shop with 50's decor, owners that know you and give you lots of free donut holes, fresh donuts that are neither too sweet nor too greasy... but still nice and soft I've tried all of the other Manley's shops in the area, and this one is by far the best! Cash only! read more

Favorite donut place in San Jose :) This is a nice little shop and the lady behind the counter is super nice! She always throw in a free donut or donut holes :) I love their glazed donuts! They tend to run out of the yummy donuts, so come early to grab your favorite donut for breakfast :) Also, it's CASH ONLY! read more

Very Friendly and Patient workers. There are tons of donuts to choose from and even a few bagels that all look so appealing to the eye. Although this establishment is a little more pricey than the usual donut shop the taste is much better than the other shops around San Jose. All the donuts I tried tasted extremely fresh and delicious. They were even nice enough to throw two donuts in free with my purchase. I recommend this shop to anyone trying to crave that sweet tooth fix. read more

Excellent. They offer all the basic donuts nothing fancy but made well. Fresh ingredients - fresh doughnuts! Great welcoming family owned place. Shop local! read more

DELICIOUS!!!! Don't have donuts often but I'm moving and not locally. Need the sugar to survive. Ordered through DoorDash. First dasher delivered to wrong house and said I'd entered my address differently. Manley remade the replacement order quickly and the second delivery was fast and perfect. read more

Delicious donuts! The owners are very nice people. Their Vietnamese iced coffee is so good, definatly a must try

Great mom and pop shop. Cash only, prepare yourself. I've gone for the sausage croissants myself. They always hit the spot. Their bagels are huge. Fair prices too. I work in the plaza with the owners' son. His mom is so sweet, she always gives a couple donut holes extra with my order. You can taste the quality of the dough, it's light and airy. They're also genuinely friendly neighborhood folks. A lot of times when I sit in for lunch and see people coming and going, they're always striking up a conversation and serving up smiles. This shop is a staple in Willow Glen. read more

I didn't have a chance to try any donuts because as soon as I put one for through the door, the woman at the counter barked at me "NO DOG ALLOWED!". I was with my service dog which had his clearly marked "service dog" vest on. I understand the no pets policy but, 1. Service dogs aren't pets and 2. A polite, excuse me, or sorry, no pets allowed would have been a decent way to let me know you didn't notice the service animal and allow me to explain. She didn't apologize after I told her he was a service dog, as a matter of fact, she said nothing at all! She just kept glaring at me with a sour face so I turned around and walked out. There are right ways to approach a customer who you believe it's violating a rule in your establishment and I wasn't causing any kind of disruption! There was only one other customer sitting there and he even looked at her like she was being rude. Never, ever going back. read more

Yelp suggests that two stars = "Meh. I've experienced better." That's exactly how I feel about this place. The woman behind the counter was friendly, but having a conversation on her Bluetooth headset while helping us. Not cool. Plus, it's a cash-only establishment. The doughnuts are nothing special. Had I a choice between Manley Donuts and Dunkin' Donuts, I would have opted for Dunkin'. There are much better doughnut places in San Jose. Go there. read more

Inexpensive donuts made fresh on-site every morning. Very friendly staff who will often throw in a free donut or donut holes. The apple fritters are amazing. Quantities are generous. Don't forget to tip. read more

I come to this shopping center to get a haircut and always make a point to stop by this donut shop. Today at 9am I stopped by for cup of coffee and a donut. I asked about the donut holes and lady behind counter told me they were all sold out. I sat and drank my coffee with plain donut and saw what appeared to be a regular customer start walking in as lady behind counter immediately started packaging her order. Must be a routine order. I distinctly saw this customer got a small bag of some donut holes that were hiding in back row of display. As trivial as this is and as reasonable it may seem for the shop owner, the way this was handled does not sit well with me. I am done making special point to visit. read more

This place is OK. I wouldn't go out of my way to come here though. Cash only is a minus as well. Even though she was friendly, the lady at the counter was having a conversation on her headset while ringing us up. The glazed donut I got was nothing special. read more

Ma an Pa shop.. donuts are always fresh.. I've been going for 18yrs.. best donutshop in town.

Love this little donut shop! Looks very clean and the lady is super nice and helpful. I had my baby with me and she offered to help take my box of donuts and coffee to my car! She recommended I try a Hawaiian blend flavored coffee they sell and I don't regret it. read more

I've been here twice so far and will keep coming back. Every time I come I have to try something new to figure out what is my favorite. So for from what I tried the original glazed is obviously good. So much better than Krispy Kreme. It's fluffy and flavorful and not too sweet. My favorite donut is the maple. I also enjoyed the chocolate and the cinnamon roll. Next time I'll try the bear claw and an apple one as well. I will be back for more delicious donuts soon... read more

I don't eat donuts often, but when I do, I like them cakey and spongy. I'm disappointed to say this Manley is not it. I bought a dozen mixed and this includes the fancy stuff like apple turn overs and bear claws for $12.50. Price is comparable to other donut shops. To my disappointment, the donuts are just average, but the apple turn over is very flat and dense. It's not light and airy like other places I've been. Staff is very friendly, just one man behind the counter. The shop is clean. I think I prefer the other Manley's on Lincoln since they have the same donuts and they offer filled donut holes. read more

Beautiful donuts every single time and the customer service is always welcoming and so kind. Amazing people !!

Donuts always get 5 stars from me...what more can you really say about buttery fried dough goodness? Their old fashioned chocolate and maple are SOOO tasty. Maple bar, glazed, jelly filled. Mmmm good. Definitely recommended. Get a box for the office. We partake at least once a month!! Oink. read more
