    Seaside Donuts never disappoints! Definitely a must try when you're in Newport! I love the blueberry old fashioned donut

    The Strawberry Smoothie ($7.00) was HUGE. The Green Thai Tea ($4.50) was highly recommended, but it was too sweet. The Ham & Cheese Croissant ($4.50) was delicious! It was warmed up and the cheese was very melty. My Apple Fritter ($3.00) was burnt. Overall, this place has great prices with relatively good food. We arrived around 8:30pm--total wait time of ~20 minutes for all food/drinks!!

    Seaside Donuts Bakery is a reliable 24-hour spot in a prime Newport Beach location. The donuts were pretty standard, but the jalapeño ham and cheese croissant was our favorite. It was nice that the staff offered to warm it up. The main draws are its affordability, convenience, and grab-and-go setup. No seating, and parking is paid unless you're lucky to find space in the nearby neighborhoods. Bring cash for the 4% discount.

    This spot is a staple of OC. I've been coming for the past 10 years whether it's during the day or at 2am. It's 24 hours which is great. Almost all the time, there will be a line out the door. It's a small shop located in front of the beach. The workers are friendly and work quickly. I love their green Thai tea and ham and cheese with jalepeno croissant. The green Thai tea will definitely keep you awake if you're caffeine sensitive. An awesome spot to come with friends for a bite at the beach or late night snack.

    Stopped in for an afternoon donut last weekend. My husband got a cronut and I got a glazed old fashioned. I had a bit of the cronut and WOW it was phenomenal. *drool* We both said that it is better than our current, now previous, #1 cronut that is/was at a donut shop by our house. The old fashioned was also tasty.

    Cam here super late at night on a Saturday and it was surprisingly not as fisted as it could be. Probably because it was Coachella weekend and the usual crowd is there instead (just a hypothesis, don't shoot the messenger). We had around 10+ people ahead of us, but the line moved super fast and most of those people were just a cluster of people in the same group/party who didn't want to get separated. Workers were super efficient and they have the system down to a tee to handle the larger crowds. Went in to order and left with everything in around 5 minutes tops. Pretty polite and friendly with the limited interaction as well. We got 4 donuts and 2 drinks and this was under $20, I believe, not too bad considering there's more egregious donut places out there. We got their green/regular Thai tea and the green/regular Thai tea donuts. Donuts were not too sticky had the strong green and regular Thai tea taste to them. Still had a nice texture the next day, but even without it being too cold, the icing stuck to the paper and mostly peeled off, so my brother had to use his teeth to scrape it off, but still good. Just an FYI so you can take them out and put them in a different container if you want to avoid this. The drinks were standard green Thai tea and Thai tea drinks, a bit sweet, but that means you can just take it home and dilute it out later. Location is great for being around the beach and near so many things to do, so they draw in a crowd. Being 24/7 is a huge plus too. Though these things are standard with some other donut places, which makes me think that this is an overall standard donut place too. No fancy bells or whistles, except the Thai tea flavors and I guess the cronuts. We were able to find free street parking and just walk there which wasn't too bad. Can't imagine how fisted it is during a more busier time though. Good to try at least once in your life.

    Definitely not what it used to be. We came in late morning on Saturday. There was a small line which is much better than nighttime. We ordered 3 croissants, cream and jalapeño, Turkey and cheese, Turkey and cheese jalapeño, and a green Thai tea. All the croissants felt like there was too much bread and not enough filling. I had to eat more than half of the bread to find very little cream cheese inside. The bread on this croissant is better than the one for the Turkey and cheese though. Green Thai tea was good but I the regular is much better. Green Thai tea has a more floral taste, kinda reminds me of pandan-ish.

    Hellllll yeah! I love a donut place that is simple and not complicated. I don't need a ton of crap on top of my donut. I just want a simple, chocolate glazed donut, which is what they have! This is a grab and go place and their prices are so good. It wasn't expensive at all like I thought it would be due to the location. I got a chocolate glazed donut with sprinkles and a banana. They also have muffins and croissants as well. They're also SO fast. The staff was really nice and just go straight to the point, which I appreciated. Even when we were in a longer line, it went sooo fast because everything is really grab and go. Again, no where to sit inside, but hey, grab that donut and take it down to the beach or pier. That's all you really need. We came back two days in a row because it was so tasty.

    If you're by Newport Pier you have to stop by and get a donut. This is a very nostalgic spot that has been around ever since I can remember and their prices are definitely reasonable. The service is good, they're quick and efficient.

    Came around 2 on tuesday, not busy. We jus got an apple fritter. It was thinner than others, nice crisp, lwk had a burnt taste tho. They also put too much icing for my liking so it was too sweet. Jus a reg donut shop nothing too special.

    Ate my donut at the nearby coffee shop

    I came here on a Friday afternoon and there was still a great selection of donuts to choose from. I got the maple cake donut, and my husband got the fruity pebbles glaze donut. Both were excellent and tasted very fresh. Service was friendly and helpful. They were very patient as I found it to be a very hard decision lol. The shop is small but easy to get in and out and it was nice and clean.

    Green Thai tea

    Came here around 9am on a Sunday and it wasn't very crowded but we still had to wait in line. The donuts are more affordable than I expected which was a pleasant surprise. I ordered the Thai tea donut which was so flabbergastingly amazing it made the 40 min drive worth it. I also ordered the ham and cheese croissant and green Thai tea. Both items made my entire year because it is that good and flavorful. They are all pretty sweet though and I have a huge sweet tooth so it was perfect. The location is right next to the beach and the Sunday farmers market. The sidewalk is nice for a stroll. I parked in a parking lot a few blocks away closer to the street which was only $2 an hour. But it fills up super duper fast and it was almost full even at 9am.

    Amazing donuts! Fast, friendly service. Cool beachside little place. We came during the day on a Monday. Night time looks much busier. We share a cronut. So good. Took home an old fashioned & a maple long John. So delicious. Will go back for more & a smoothie.

Highly recommend the honey rosemary latte - can't find it anywhere else and it's delicious for those who love semi-sweet floral leaning lattes. Brownie points for the syrup being made in house (it's a tablestake these days but still appreciate it). Spanish latte is also superb. Pastries are some of the best we've had. I recently ordered the plain croissant and it was by far the best plain croissant I've had in my life. You'll need to come earlier in the day to have options because they sell somewhat quickly. Small nitpick that I've also seen from others is that they really should keep pastries in a case rather than out in the open. The fly fan things don't work that well... Also with the amount of dogs, fur and dander are inevitably airborne. When I was there last a customer's large dog jumped on the counter several times and had his face and paws in the pastries - woops.

It's located at the Newport/Balboa pier by the surfer statue, the interior is tight but manageable as the drinks come out pretty quickly. There's plenty of tables set outside to be shared amongst the other small food spots around. I visited on a Saturday morning after taking a walk up and down the pier with my pup. The line was a few folks out the door but I was at the counter ordering within a few minutes. The menu is straight and to the point, prices are what you'd expect from any coffee shop in the OC (I would think the baseline is $6-$8 per drink) They also offer smoothies and açaí bowls as well. I see that they had an açaí smoothie on the menu and was intrigued! Once I received my smoothie, I could tell just by visuals it was a premade frozen açaí blend of some sort that was re-blended. It tasted pretty close to the single serve frozen açaí pouches you can buy at Costco. And speaking of, the consistency was exactly like your Costco berry smoothie (and dare I say.. even the taste? lol) except of course the Costco smoothie is only $3. It wasn't great. It wasn't bad. It wasn't cheap ($8) but, it was a cold drink on a hot day that was artificially sweet and went down easy. And also, served by the nicest staff!! Next time I'll try their matcha (which is what I was going to order but then I had to get spontaneous lol)

I liked the toffee latte more cause it had bits of toffee in it but I also liked the spanish latte as it tasted lighter than the toffee latte. It gave the drinks more of a balance when I started taking sips from both of them. I do really like how the top layer of the lattes were blue, which gives off a great aesthetic. The only downside for me was that the toffee latte lost a good amount of its flavor after some of the ice melted-- some cafes still have a strong coffee taste even after the ice melts & that's usually what I like as far as preference. As for the sunbliss blend smoothie, it definitely had that taste of the 100% real fruit in it and was a refreshing drink to sip on when I walked at the beach. It's a plus for this cafe for having plenty of options between drinks and bites!
