We make it a point to stop here every time we're in Encinitas, it has become our go-to donut spot!…read moreOne of the main reasons we love it is that they offer gluten-free options, which can be hard to find. What really sets them apart is that the donuts are made fresh when you order them. You can literally taste the difference! They're always warm, soft, and incredibly delicious. We also love that we've never had an issue finding parking, which makes stopping by quick and easy. On nice days, we enjoy taking our donuts outside to eat, and it's become a fun little tradition for our family. Even our toddler looks forward to our donut stop here every time we're in town! The quality, freshness, and friendly service keep us coming back again and again. If you're in Encinitas and craving a great donut, this place is definitely worth a visit. Highly recommend!

We came down to Encinitas to grab a bite to eat. Unfortunately, the streets were closed off for a…read moreFarmers Market event. Luckily, we found a parking spot nearby and we were able to explore around the area. This time, we were able to walk around to see what else was located nearby. While walking down Coast Highway, we saw some large advertisements for Broad Street Doughnuts. The photos were colorful and we were in the mood to try something new. We had never heard of Broad Street Doughnuts, so we were hoping that these would be delicious. Broad Street Doughnuts is located off of PCH, in the city of Encinitas. This is their only location on the west coast. They have 3 other locations in New Jersey, so it's great that they opened up a shop out here. They share a parking lot with other businesses, so parking is relatively easy. Their doughnuts are made to order. You will not get that stale, day old taste when you take your first bite.They are fried up after you place your order and then the toppings are applied. It beats staring are doughnuts through a case and ordering what may have been sitting there for hours on end. The menu is on the wall and it's totally visual. Each combo is displayed in a vivid photo. You can select from those or from the doughnuts that are near the register. The doughnuts at the front counter are not featured on the visual menu, so you may need to ask about their toppings/combos. I got a classic rainbow sprinkled doughnuts, along with a half glazed and half chocolate sprinkled doughnut. We also ordered a cotton candy doughnut that had what looked like dried out cotton candy. Delicious!!!! These doughnuts were light and fluffy. They were warm to the touch and incredibly fresh. They are a bit smaller in size, when compared to an average size doughnut. They seem prefect in size because you could walk the calories off while exploring around Encinitas. Broad Street Doughnuts was a pleasant surprise. Sometimes the visual representation isn't always an indicator of how good the product will be. In this case, the product lived up to the visual representation. We have passed by Broad Street Doughnuts many times, and finally had an opportunity to stop by. We were pleasantly surprised with both the product and how friendly the staff were with all of the customers. We will definitely be back when we are back in the area!

It's a small shop with a great ambiance and vibe. Family friendly and the have a great small selection of Parlor Doughnut merch. We sampled 6 donuts : lemon, churro, sandy beach, French toast, coconut, blueberry. All good choices but French toast was the majority winner. We will be going back after 11 to try the new Savory pizza style selections. You can't say you have been to Oceanside unless you go to Parlor Doughnuts!

I tried to call them four times and nobody ever picked up. They do this as a get your money and don't care anymore. I use to enjoy getting droughts from there. But after this I will be taking my business elsewhere. There are other options that have much better customer service. This is the best way to loose a customer. Updated: I was able to go down to Parlor doughnuts and spoke to someone working there. They talked to the manager and they made a whole new order of the correct items.

This is not just a donut shop. This is a legacy…read more My husband grew up riding his bike all the way from Del Mar as a kid, risking life, limb, and probably traffic laws, just for a hot glazed chocolate donut. That kind of dedication tells you everything you need to know about these donuts. Decades later, our cousins drive them 3 hours to Los Angeles like precious cargo for the family to enjoy when they come to visit. A donut. 3 hours in a car. Still incredible. Some things are just built different. Our cousins are hero's! Only one complaint, they are not open late, which is truly a crime against everyone with late night munchies and poor decision making skills. The world needs VG Donuts at midnight. Someone please make this happen. We will be back. My husband's inner 10 year old on a bike absolutely demands it.

Every flavor feels simple yet incredibly satisfying, with each bite making an impact. My favorite was the Pebble Toast Crunch flavor (if I got the name right!) it was amazing. The customer service was warm and welcoming, which made the experience even better. Out of all the food stalls at Windmill Farms, this feels like one of the most affordable options, which is a huge plus. The bathrooms were clean, and while parking can be challenging on weekends, weekday visits are much easier. I've only been to Windmill Farms a few times, but this spot definitely makes me want to come back more often!

The mini donuts we got were churros and sugar, the texture told me that was not freshly made, meanwhile these two flavors we got with the identical dough flavor, also the churros' texture is the same as sugar. Not very impressed by its flavor or texture, but I do like the cute size donut.

Great service by Aadan!…read more Came with a small kid who he offered some Sidecar stickers to. I know that's not a thing to hand these labels out but every kid loves stickers! I was also debating the size of chocolate milk for my kid and ordered small and got confirmation from Aadan that small would be the ideal choice for kids. Excellent iced Banana Bread Latte. Couldn't detect any banana bread flavor to it but as someone who does not like standard "plain" lattes, it was good coffee! Kid inhaled a Vanilla Bean Glazed and I had the Blueberry Cheesecake doughnut (both yeast doughnuts) for lunch (yes for lunch!) and I usually do not like eating more than a quarter of a doughnut even as dessert. I was hesitant to get the Blueberry Cheesecake because I saw the giant blob of cream on top but it was more like whip cream than actual cheesecake and sweet enough to compliment a doughnut without being heavy and overly sweet like actual cheesecake. I also like the dollop of blueberry preserves on top. The yeast doughnut was plump airy goodness. We didn't need it, but I appreciate that this shop always has free cold water available for guests. This is one of my few Treat Yourself places.

The shop is always spotless, the atmosphere is fun and energetic, and the staff is consistently warm, welcoming, and knowledgeable about their menu. What really sets Sidecar apart is the quality. You can tell they use top-tier ingredients, and every donut tastes fresh, handcrafted, and made with attention to detail. I've tried everything from their classic glazed donuts to their rotating seasonal specialties, and I honestly haven't had a bad one yet. Even the simpler menu items stand out because they're executed so well. Their creative flavors keep things interesting, while favorites like the Butter & Salt and Huckleberry showcase how good a donut can be when quality comes first. That said, my hands-down favorite is the Apple Fritter. It's crispy on the outside, soft and tender on the inside, packed with real apple flavor, and finished with just the right amount of sweetness. Every time I visit, I tell myself I'm going to try something new, and somehow I end up ordering the fritter again. If you're in Del Mar and have even a slight sweet tooth, Sidecar is absolutely worth the stop. Great ingredients, incredible donuts, friendly staff, and a fun atmosphere make this one of those places you'll find yourself coming back to again and again.

Absolutely phenomenal and my new favorite donut shop! I came in at 10 AM on a Friday and they had…read moreplenty of selection of all my favorite kinds of donuts. The cashier let me know that the apple fritters I was looking at were fresh out of the oven and still warm, so I had to try those and they were the best apple fritters I've ever had! (Fresh is always better, of course). But we also tried their blueberry cake donuts, maple bars, glazed old fashions, and a few others and all were very soft, luscious, and just a perfect version of that type of donut. I have high standards for baked goods and it only took touching one of their classic sugar covered donuts and feeling just how pillowy soft it was to know they have an amazing rise and fantastic quality. I will be returning here from now on for all my donuts!! The shop is cute inside too. They have small tables for eating your purchase afterwards and offer coffee and tea. It doesn't feel like you're in the way here and the service was incredibly friendly and welcoming. No critiques whatsoever!
