Out of all types of establishments where staff may become petty in order to make things difficult, a donut shop is the dead last place I would expect to see that. Especially at the price we are paying (plus you're asking for tips with every single transaction.) It is not our job as customers to familiarize with what you as staff know to be the names of the donuts. Again, keep in mind you are prompting every single customer that walks thru that door for a tip. I should not have to be in a donut selection stalemate with the night manager until I say the name he wants me to say before he'll grab the donut I am directing him to grab. "Far left" is sufficient. Just put the fries in the bag. read more

All I have to say is bye Anna's and hello Slodoco!!! Fresh, FRIENDLY and tasty. Ellers is still #1 but slodoco is 2nd and forget about Hook & Press all together. Prefect place to hang out for a cup of Joe and a treat. read more

Great 24-hour donut palace. Great looking counter display -- excellent donuts! Had the chocolate crueler and an old fashioned with chocolate glaze. Old fashioned was one of the best I've had! I actually ate it the next morning, so same day probably would've blown my mind. Lots of students hanging around doing the homework keeping the donuts hot and fresh! Will definitely be back for more! read more

I am in awe. Not a donut person but totally a crème brule fan and I've been thinking of the creme brule Donut all day! Loved the big space and great staff. Glad you're here! read more

SLODoCo gives back to our local Goleta community by supporting Dos Pueblos High School's Music program and its biggest fundraiser. Thank you, SLODoCo, for supporting our local community. You've earned a loyal customer in me. read more

Tasted like dough RIP it is like one level above being non edible pls either change the recipe to a maybe mochi donut or sm (so it can be vegan and gluten free) or make just a vegan one like why combined gluten free and vegan. I want a good donut and Safeway sells better vegan ones than this read more

Simply just wanted to call in a coffee order so I didn't have to wait at 11 PM as I'm trying to get in and out the cashier. Didn't wanna do the order over the phone and just said place the order when you get here there's nobody here I don't understand why he couldn't just make the coffee ready for me so I can get in get out. I'm not trying to hang out Extremely rude and unprofessional read more

Really good doughnuts. Worth the drive wherever you live. And open late (24 hours). Lots of variety of doughnuts and good coffee. read more

YUM! Thanks to this shop that I walked into our family was introduced to a new favorite donut shop and donut! Highly recommend the Cronut (half donut half croissant) with strawberry filling (actually sitting on top so not sure that is technically filling) and powdered sugar. It was not too sweet and super yummy with layers of flaky buttery dough. Good thing we live out of town or this good be a hardship on our waistline. Highly recommend! Friendly laid back staff and although our order was to go there appeared to be tons of tables and space to sit and enjoy. read more

After treasuring these donuts from SLO every time I got the chance to visit, I was thrilled that this fantastic place made its way home to Santa Barbara! The donuts are some of the best I've ever tasted and it's become a go-to for me whenever there's a special event opportunity with sweet treats or I need a fun place to hang out with friends. I love the setup and the fact that it's so welcoming to visit. I highly recommend stopping by here the next time you're at the Goleta Target if you haven't already - you won't regret it! read more

Once I heard about SLODoCo was coming to Goleta I was shocked, I love their donuts so much I was always getting them from in San Luis Obispo but since they opened the one here I've loved going here I've always grabbed a box of 12, I went to the grand opening of this one sure the commute to get these isn't too far. Service is always good and great sure all most of UCSB students pop in here and there to study and it's a nice place to sit down do homework and have a quick donut. The staff are always nice and always helpful to decide what you want. If you go there it's always my go to donuts when I'm in the Goleta area. Always change their verity of donuts for holidays when I first when they were having Halloween donuts. Also follow them on Instagram they repost it on their story. Their verity always changes and has gluten free donuts too. read more

I love these donuts flavors and creative styles. And they are open 24/7! Really helpful for late night craves

Huge selection of doughnuts. Good coffee. Large sitting area with tables and couches. Nice vibe. Super friendly staff.

The donuts are great and the indoor seating is very pleasant. I didn't have a drink but others in my group said the lattes were very good. Service was very good. We'll be back! P.S. They have some games and books on the shelves; we didn't use them, but this is nice to know. read more

the line is sometimes long. i love the donuts they are always so fun. and it's amazing that the shops open 24 hours a day! perfect for very late night study sessions. they have a comfy coach and plenty of space inside. read more

Best place in town for a delicious thai tea. Also the spinach cheese croissant is to dieeeee for. Definitely a little on pricier side ($6) but delicious. Love that it's open 24hrs too. read more

This is one of the greatest donut shops ever! Open 24 hrs (it's a good thing this wasn't here when I was going to college! ;) ) they have the largest variety of donuts I've ever seen. The biggest difference is in the dough - they just taste better than other places. Once you try them you'll understand what I mean. They are so creative you would be thrilled to take them to any event. It's actually hard to choose which ones to try. My favorite are the snickerdoodle, fruity pebbles & crème brûlée. Obviously I haven't tried them all, but I have brought them to several events and people go crazy over them! It's a great atmosphere as well, as evidenced by the number of people hanging out in there - plus they have great coffee as well. Check out their handmade candles - to die for! I couldn't resist buying the gardenia one for myself. I hope they remain a staple in this town for a long time :) read more

Jessie was super friendly and helpful! Soooo many flavors to choose from, but it seems they are all from the same yeasted dough, in the old-fashioned or cake style. Too bad it's unlikely they'll ever sell brioche or mochi donuts as well. I tried their donut holes, which are $.40 each and 10% off for a dozen. They're not oily/greasy and quite dense, similar to hawaiian bread in taste and consistency. I wish they had a wider variety of flavors for the donut holes (sugar dusted, cinnamon, sprinkles, chocolate, etc) however they just came plain glazed. The glaze is hard rather than soft, and too sweet for my liking. Spudnut's has better glaze in my opinion, but Slodoco wins in everything else. I'll come back with friends to try more and check out the games :) so clean and spacious, not to mention ez parking in the lot read more

I came in to study here for finals week and found an extremely clean and spacious area with lots of outlets! The staff is very nice and gets drinks out quickly. Would highly recommend for any students looking for a study spot. read more

I love it here! The donuts are delicious, but a bit expensive. The coffee is also pretty good, a bit more expensive that starbucks but also a bit tastier.

They have free wifi, bathrooms for customers, and many outlets around if you need to charge your laptop or something while studying. read more

Slodoco Donuts - Study spot - Donuts Near Me - Goleta, California

Been here twice, ordered oat milk mocha lattes both times, was given almond milk. Almond milk is bad. I am upset. Oat milk. Oat milk is what I wanted and what I like. I only realized it was almond milk a while after I left when my stomach started hurting. I wish they would get the milk right. I am sad. But the donuts are good, but overpriced. I guess it's a hipster place so it makes sense but at least make them taste hipster. read more

The donuts were incredibly fresh and they were fairly priced. I like the ambience of the building and what was going on there. The variety was also fantastic. I am looking forward to going back there again soon. read more

Came in this morning at 5:30 am and bought a dozen donuts and coffee; the service was great, the donut selection was impressive, and the coffee was delicious. I especially enjoyed their donut recipe, it's better than most. I don't eat most donuts due to the oily after taste, but Slodoco donuts will have me coming back for more. So glad to have a 24 hr spot in Goleta! read more

I have gone several times to slodoco, but have not been impressed by the doughnuts, they always have a stale flavor and texture. on the positive side can not beat the hours, coffee is great and the staff is friendly and helpful. Hoping the doughnuts get better. read more

French crullers are the best ever! The docro is definitely another one worth trying (and totally unique)

They have amazing croissants and the donuts are insane. I've been here twice. The service is great. They have an area to study and another to play board games. read more

Rayna or Reyna however you spell her name was very disrespectful to me when I came I was simply asking questions and she was treating me as if I was slow and giving attitude.. I've seen her treat employees like they are beneath her as im purchasing donuts before aswell. One employee even told me one time she has favorites when I asked what her problem was. This was a couple months ago I haven't been back since and I don't plan on it. read more

Horrible experience. If you want run a store 24/7 then stock up on your donuts especially if you offer Gluten free donuts. You are generally out of them by 10:00am. Stock up and have them available just like the other donuts. Thank you read more

Got charged $7 for 6 donut holes and a maple bar. They weren't very fresh or higher quality than your run-of-the-mill donuts. Felt very ripped off. Cool atmosphere to study and game with friends though. read more

Went here the day after election for some comfort donuts. I was soooo pleasantly surprised. The donuts are reasonably priced, especially the regular 'glazed, powdered sugarc etc. the specialty donuts are 2.7, also very reasonable. The donuts were absolutely delicious. Very soft and airy. I had to stop my self from devouring all the ones I got for my friends as well. The coffee was good, nothing special but it went well with the donuts so I was very happy. The sitting spaces were also way above what I expected. Couches and bean bags with plenty of board games available. Overall I'll be coming here again to do work and munch on some donuts read more
