    Donuts
    Miquelle P.

    I just went there this morning to grab a dozen donuts. On my way to nursing Clinical's trying to surprise my group with donuts. I was unaware that it was a cash only establishment. The young lady that helped me was so kind enough to take all the cash that I had and still give me a dozen donuts for my classmates. She was sweet. She was quick. Donuts look delicious and I will be back. Thank you for being a genuine person. You now have a loyal customer. Thank you.

    The raised glazed here seemed like it was recently made - it was super good. Soft, moist, airy, chewy. So delish. The other donuts - coconut cake donut and old fashioned glazed were okay but definitely tasted like they weren't just made. I bet they're really good fresh though. The lady working was the only one there so if you go and don't see anyone, she might be in the supply room grabbing something (that's where she was when we went). All I can say is be patient and support this super nice lady. To the customers who throw their stir sticks in the ground: don't throw your freakin coffee stir sticks in the garden bed....there's a garbage can right next to it. What a weird entitled thing to do... the lady working has to clean it up every time. Have some decency and throw your trash in a trash can.

    Drive-Thru Donut spot with a decent selection, that's the highlight! Apple Fritter ($1.95) https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/mitchells-donuts-el-monte?select=mnr5bx3HY2IWpdGu1zZFCQ Very heavy on the glaze and lacked enough Cinnamon and Apples https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/mitchells-donuts-el-monte?select=-rBvcJc9o3i3dYuFgPG7Yg to balance things out, too sweet for my liking. 2-Stars

    Went on a jalapeños ham and cheese croissant hunt and decided to try theirs. Let me freak it down for y'all. Croissants freshness: was okay, but you can tell they weren't freshly made that morning. Amount of fillings: good portion of ham but the cheese wasn't much. Quality of the fillings: could be better, in my opinion I just think fresh is always best than using old ham because we can tell right away. Overall taste wise: is okay better than other ones I tried around the area still need some work. We also go half a dozen of donut holes but the lady was nice enough to throw in another half on the house. Will prob give them another chance. Maybe go earlier and see if we can get a fresh croissants this time.

    This is where I put the donuts I just bought from them. The trashcan. They were old and dry. I will not return.

    Cozy and friendly neighborhood spot with fresh donuts and amazing breakfast sandwiches…read more We got a dozen donuts and donut cream puffs which were all delicious, but the stand out was the croissant sandwich with ham egg and cheese. Get it with avocado and pickled jalapeños (not spicy) - so good! Easily my favorite breakfast sandwich! Wish I lived in CA so I could go more often!

    Early Morning Donut Run... With One Very Dramatic Muffin…read more Decided to stop by this donut shop early in the morning to grab a few treats for hubby and me. There were a handful of parking spots available around 7 AM, so parking was easy, and the shop itself was very clean, bright, and welcoming. There were actually quite a few customers inside already, which is always a good sign! Since it had been forever since I last bought donuts, I ended up picking up a little variety: a cream cheese croissant, cheese muffin, blueberry muffin, and some donut holes. Now... let's talk about the muffin. First of all, it was HUGE and costed $3.50, hoping it was worth the price. But the moment I picked it up... the top literally fell completely off and beheaded itself! I just stood there looking at it like, "Well... that escalated quickly." Unfortunately, the muffin itself was the biggest disappointment. I'd honestly give it about 2/5 stars. It was very dry, and despite it being a cheese muffin, I couldn't really taste any cheese at all. It just wasn't worth the money for me. The donut holes (I think around $2.50 for about half a bag) were decent, but I've definitely had softer and fluffier ones elsewhere. They satisfied the sweet tooth, but they weren't particularly memorable. On the bright side, service was excellent. Everyone was friendly, the line moved quickly, and I was in and out within minutes. Overall, I'm glad I stopped by and gave this place a try since it was nearby. I probably wouldn't come back specifically for the muffins, but I'd be willing to give some of their breakfast sandwiches or other menu items a shot next time. Happy eats!
