A nice old fashioned family run donut shop. Made fresh during the day the case inside is filled with wonderful pastries all day. There are tables outside that in the morning are filled with older men sitting around like the cracker barrel in the old country store. You can't go wrong looking for great donuts, sorry they are not open 24 hours a day. read more

I was going to copy the review that says, "I have two words for you about Sierra Doughnuts: apple fritters." Instead, I'm going to amend it: I have five words for you about Sierra Doughnuts: cinnamon buns and apple fritters." OMG. They're downright DANGEROUS!!! You won't be disappointed. read more

They fry their donuts in very old oil. When you're done eating one of those donuts you have a bad taste in your mouth of bad oil and maybe soy sauce. I used to love this place but it's went downhill fast. It's too bad there's not a good donut place in the Sierra Madre area. read more

Great donuts, great iced coffee and they are very neighborly. We're regulars here, and one time we forgot our money and they served us 5 donuts and 5 coffee drinks and allowed us to come back later to pay. And it's a cool place. read more

This is an authentic, family-run, mom and pop shop, which I love!! I love seeing the couple who own it working so hard. They are super sweet! Now for the doughnuts, THEY ARE GOOD! These are up these with the best donuts I've ever had! You have to try this place if u haven't. read more

Donuts are good but the lady who owns the shop is incredibly rude. I have had very bad experiences with her and other friends have also complained. For example when I ordered donuts and asked that they be put in a larger box so that it would be easier to get out she refused and told me to go somewhere else if I didn't like it. Previously she also made very lewd comments about athletes on tv which was extremely embarrassing and uncomfortable. Definitely avoid this place. read more

I stopped in today to satisfy my craving for a crumb donut. The owner was very friendly and welcoming. He patiently waited while I made my selections and pointed out a more cost-effective option than my original plan. The crumb donut was delicious. Hopefully the other five that I bought to go with it will be just as good. read more

Good, solid donuts here and always friendly service. But, I have two words for you when I think of Sierra Donuts: APPLE FRITTER Holy cow are these good! read more

They are just as good as any other donut shop, including Donut Man in Glendora. You just need to know what to get and what your tastes are. I prefer maple bars, and these guys have good maple bars. Get there early in the morning when they are fresh. It's a different thickness and taste, but very good. Their highlight, however, is the maple buttermilk bar (if you don't like maple they have chocolate and glazed buttermilk bars). Best donut in the shop. read more

I have a thing for devil's food donuts. I got 2 here for $1.30 on Friday night at 6pm. I gave one to my mom, and shared the other one with my 2yr old nephew. I can spoil dinner time, I'm the aunt. He'll still eat the good stuff and then we'll spend the evening running around. The donuts were a big hit, I had share with more people and I am being sent there in the morning for a dozen. The guy behind the counter was super nice and friendly and after the fun day I had at the DMV and the car dealership, this was a great treat. read more

Sierra Doughnuts is the "Cheers" of doughnut shops! The owner's and staff know the names of most of their clientele as well as their usual order. There is always some sort of friendly banter taking place and it's impossible to leave there without a smile on your face. Oh, and the doughtnuts are really good, too and they have real half and half for your coffee. read more

11:30 on a Sat morning and no glazed old fashioned donuts left. They only take cash, coffee was acceptable and service was with a smile. "Charming" old man crowd seemed like regulars. I got a glazed buttermilk donut instead and it was fine. This place is just whatever... read more

Everyone here is very funny, welcoming, and loving! Been coming here since I was in 2nd grade.

Run down little donut shop. Ordered a thai ice tea. It was so watered down and the color was bright orange. For $2 or any amount, wouldn't come back here again. read more

Staying with a friend in the area who recommended this donut shop. These donuts were awesome! We had a chocolate iced, bear claw, cake donut, and a ham and cheese croissant. They were all so soft and fantastic! Must have been a fresh batch. Loved the local feel and the fact that its family owned. Check it out! read more

The nicest staff - ordered 3 dozen glazed and they were ready ON time.

There is no single superior butternut doughnut that the one thy have. I love butternut doughnuts and I've tried them at over 3 dozen Pasadena area doughnut shops and these are the best. Give them a try and you won't be disappointed! read more

What a life saver this place is. Need quick fresh bear claw and black coffee to go since its so cold outside. Come try this spot.

Honestly best donut place EVER! Always fresh and always sooo good! Their old fashion donut is my fav and if you haven't had their original glaze you're missing out! (Also have to try their ham and cheese croissant!) read more

Fresh baked doughnuts and pastries yummy in my tummy fresh brewed coffee nice varieties of juices from apple juice to orange juice and snapple and of course milk friendly customer service read more

This place used to great (still is) , until my boyfriend brought donuts home this morning . I was excited to pick out the jelly donut, but then my excitement was crushed. I realized it wasn't filled in all the way, it was mostly a glazed donut. Pls don't kill anymore jelly donuts, and fill them up generously. read more

Best doughnuts ever. Their apple fritter is amazing. Everyone there is nice! However the woman inside is nice but often screeches at her son and other family members for some reason. None of my business of course. read more

Great help behind the counter and the only place that I've had a honey glazed or honey bran muffin. Crispy and chewy goodness!

I like to stop here for croissants on the way to work. They're fantastic -- big, light, great texture inside and out. $1.50 each. Bring cash. Recommended. read more

Good service, and the prices are a lot more reasonable than the other guys. The selection is good, even if you walk in late in the day. Everything I've tried has been a winner. read more

Had a donut from here and it was delicious! Super soft, and great flavor. The glazed donut treated like it had a hint of vanilla. I'll be coming back here soon! read more

What a great little shop! Not the kind of food you can eat often but when you do you want it to feel like a treat, their donuts never fall to please. read more

I will never go back to Sierra Madre Doughnuts. This morning I drove up excited to try this little donut shop out, parks out from next to two other cars. When I went inside the woman behind the counter starting yelling at me that I parked in the driveway. I have never experience anything like it, to be yelled at in front of other customers instead of politely telling me that I need to move my car. Which didn't make sense since there was two other cars parked and they were marked spots. I left in shock. When I called back to complain to the owner the man on the phone told me that was his wife and what is he suppose to do about it, that's just how his wife talks to people he said. Complete shock, will never go back. read more

Not too good. The raised donut with chocolate was greasy and layer of chocolate was thin and tasteless. The cake doughnut with peanuts had barely any nuts on it and most of the glaze (and nuts) fell off during the first bite. The rest of the donuts our small group ordered weren't any better. The young man behind the counter appeared bothered that it was taking us a few minutes to make our decision. The store was not busy and there wasn't anyone else waiting. A woman did walk in while we were telling him our choices and he walkied away from us, without comment, and helped her. I could understand if she had come in while we were looking and deciding, but we had actually begun telling him our order. There are much better donuts in town, so we'll skip Sierra in the future. read more

Come here every day after school (which is right across the street. GO LANCERS!). Favorite donut place in the world. Best donut is the chocolate chip. It's a large, square donut, covered with chocolate icing, sprinkles, chocolate chips and filled with chocolate goosh and more chocolate chips. They always have one ready for me. Wide variety of drinks. My personal choice is the Mexican Coke. People who work there are friendly and know everyone who comes in. read more

Amazing people. my everyday coffee place !!

This is the first and last time I would go to this donut shop. The donuts were flat and gritty with the taste of old oil. I went there at 10am on a Sunday morning and most of the donuts were gone. They know Sunday mornings are busy, so why not be stocked and ready? This really annoyed me. For $10.70 a dozen I would much rather go to Dunkin' Donuts or Krispy Kreme. read more
