    I am going to say in advance that this is based on a takeaway my doughier brought in, and we ate it after 24 hrs . Really not great donuts - way too doughy , it airy enough , toppings were just not tasty . Perhaps we should have tried some other flavors and eat it fresh . All together - weak .

    Friendly cozy local donut house. I reminisced about the legendary Sunshine Donuts that I remembered from years ago in SLO, and the donista (like barista?) said this place actually grew out of those roots. I like these cool snowmen/dough-men, a holiday offering.

    The cake donuts were good. The ube was not my fave. Friendly and fast service. Lively and colorful interior. The assorted donuts are so inviting. They have gluten free varieties too.

    Another absolute must-try spot if you're in SLO! Located next to Cal Poly SLO and there were many students studying at SloDoCo when we stopped by so it was pretty quiet. It's also open 24/7 which makes it perfect for a late night snack. They have so many unique and creative flavors for their donuts and some of the decorations on the donuts were amazing! Some of the unique flavors they had included mint, matcha, ube, thai tea, lavender, and even a Dubai chocolate flavor! My favorites would have to be the maple raised, mint, cookies and cream, and Dubai chocolate. But honestly you can't go wrong with any of the flavors and get a dozen if you're sharing with friends!

    From the moment I walked in, I could tell this place lived up to the hype. The warm scent of fresh donuts greeted me as I entered, and the cozy atmosphere made it the perfect place to relax or grab a quick snack The donuts here are top notch! There's a large variety of flavors, from the classic glaze to more adventurous options like the creme brûlée. The donuts are fresh, light, and not greasy at all, which really elevates the experience. The friendly staff is another highlight. they're incredibly welcoming and always happy to chat about the menu, offering great suggestions if you're undecided. One thing I absolutely love is that SLOCODO Donuts is open 24 hours, which makes it the perfect spot for late night cravings or early morning pick me ups. Plus, there's always a nice buzz inside with lots of students studying, which adds to the laid back, inviting vibe. Whether you're in the mood for something traditional or want to try something new, SLOCODO Donuts has you covered. I highly recommend stopping by and grabbing a box to enjoy

    Just here to say that SloDoCo is a not so hidden gem of SLO and a must try donut stop if you're new to SLO or passing through the area. They care about the donuts they make and are constantly on top of stocking great donuts with more vegan and gluten free donut options (that are actually incredible) than any other donut place I've been to. I personally love the maple or lavender GF donuts. They have so many great donuts to choose from including classics and more elaborate flavor combos and designs. Monthly specials are always top notch so make sure to check out the menu. The artistry and themed donuts never fail to make me smile, and you can place custom orders ahead of time if you're looking for something extra special. They've been slaying the game for years! Iconic! If you're not into donuts or want to elevate your experience further, they also offer a great selection of drinks including coffee and espresso drinks, Thai tea, chai, and matcha lattes with nondairy milk options too. I've loved stopping in when I'm in the area and how can you go wrong with a donut? You can't. Open 24 hours, full of great vibes, and have fun events, so you really can't go wrong here. Perfect anytime, any day. One of the best places in SLO!

    A dozen of goodness!

    Slodoco is our family favorite in all of the world! Sounds a little dramatic, but pretty true. Service is always amazing. All employees are nice and personable. Every Slodoco I have been to has a very welcoming vibe, and this location is no different. This location is actually our favorite. The doughnuts were perfection as usual. We are not from the area, but every time we are in the area, even just passing through, it is the law to stop and get a dozen!

    A SLO staple! This location has lots of parking in the plaza as well as seating and wifi, so it's a great place to grab a (very) sweet treat and study, hang out with friends, or play some of their board games. I liked the wide variety of donut flavors from classics to monthly specials like the "Matcha Madness" one designed with a green jersey for March Madness. Many flavors have additional toppings like chocolate chips or rainbow sprinkles, and I liked that the glaze was pretty sturdy and wouldn't smear off so easily. I prefer the fluffy raised donuts, but the crumb cinnamon roll and pillow, which could use more evenly distributed filling, were fun to try. The apple fritter had a nice caramelized crust. I usually love floral flavors, but because the lavender glaze smelled and tasted strongly of lavender essential oils, I felt like I was eating a hand sanitizer or bath product. On the other hand, the matcha flavor could be stronger. Overall, I'm a fan of SloDoCo, and I'm happy they expanded near UCSB too!

    Everyone was super friendly. Inside is super cute. I like donuts but not love like donut lovers do. HOWEVER, their french cruller donuts are absolute divine! It's the best I've ever had. My boyfriend is not a donut lover either and he LOVED the french cruller (specifically the chocolate dipped one). He loved it so much he got half a dozen to share with my family since we were here on vacation. Side note, I had an iced mocha and it was perfection. We will definitely be back when we're visiting again.

    Assortment of vegan (back row,and two back left) and regular doughnuts. Beautifully decorated and delicious.
    Shannon S.

    The doughnuts are delicious! Vegan gluten free!!! Yes please! My husband got regular doughnuts and loves his too. Staff were friendly and helpful, made sure to ask about separating the doughnuts.

    This place is open 24 hours which is incredible dangerous for anyone who lives close by I came here on a trip with my family during the summer and I'm still chasing these donuts today They are so fresh, pillowy and have options of just the right amount of sweetness to the extreme sweet lovers delight The service is incredibly friendly and have so many suggestions when you inevitably get overwhelmed by the amount of wonderful options they put before you I would come and paint here all the time if I lived close by, it's cozy, it smells divine inside, and did I mention it's open 24 hours? Yeah, go get yourself a sweet treat at SloDoCo!

    I love SLODoCo. They are always fresh, delicious and they have the cutest seasonal donuts. We gave them another shot, and glad we did, after the rude employee we encountered. Seems they revamped their staff, because the majority seem courteous and friendly now. I always bring my kids during Halloween and Christmas. I also ordered birthday donuts for my boys one year, in Star Wars theme, and they were adorable.

    I'm a huge fan!!! Came for the first time, a year ago, had to come back! I came all the way from San Diego. I was greeted by friendly staff. Bought, cookies and creme pillow, tiramisu, maple bacon bar and a pepperoni pizza croissant. GET TGE CROISSANT ! Ate it on my way out. Came New Year's Day. A lot of places are closed. So happy you were open. This location is the main MAIN located. It is alot smaller. The inside was quiet. They have cool Merch. Thank you Slodoco!!! See you next year!

    Do they have vegan and gluten free donuts not either or?

    Yes, almost all of their gluten free donuts are also vegan!

    Are there daily gluten-free flavors or just the monthly special? So thankful GF is even an option!

    There's a variety of Gluten Free flavors, including the monthly special. The available flavors depend on the time of day and demand that day!

    Do they serve vegan donuts? :-)

    Yes! They have a separate case with a selection of vegan donuts. Never had them but seem popular!

    How much do you charge for a dozen? Does it go off of the price of each kind (say I want some raised and some cake donuts)?

    Hi Zoe! Thanks for reaching out with a question! Our donut pricing is fairly straightforward. A basic assorted dozen starts at $12.00/dozen and includes a variety of our standard cake, raised, old fashioned, and devil’s food donuts with a variety of… Read more

    Do non-vegan donuts contain eggs?

    I believe so.. however both the vegan and gluten free donuts do not have eggs

    Will the Atascadero location be 24/7? Will you have matcha donuts ? I've driven down to San Luis just for these donuts and you guys are always sold out !!

    A-town's hours are listed online as 5am-10pm. I thought they rotated doughnuts, so not sure if the matcha is always on the menu.

    When are you planning to open the Atascadero location?

    Hi Valerie-- Thanks for checking in on this again. As of now, we have not yet announced an opening date for our new location. Unfortunately, opening a brand new shop is a big process and will definitely take us a few months once we begin… Read more

    FOOD: They only serve drinks but a good amount of options!…read moreThere are milk teas, matchas, fruit teas, coconut clouds, peachy refreshers, milkshakes and a Vietnamese cold brew. I ordered the banana matcha latte and my bf got the Vietnamese cold brew. The Vietnamese cold brew ended up being sweeter than my matcha but that not a problem for me because I do not like my drinks sweet. A good hint of banana in my drink but mostly matcha. The banana matcha latte is available for a limited time only unlike the Vietnamese cold brew. SERVICE: We were the only ones at the store during our visit but the service was quick. There was only one person taking orders and making the drinks at the time but even then I thought she did it in a timely manner. AMBIANCE: Plenty of space and a cute instagrammable install photo-op against the wall. Plenty of seats available and some games available for groups visiting the store. There is free wifi available as well. The music playing in the background was not playing too loud. I feel like the store is still pretty empty and needs some more decorations but otherwise a good space to get some work done while enjoying your drink. Will definitely come back and try the other drinks!

    I'm so in love with everything about Scout Coffee on Foothill Blvd in SLO! I'm actually bummed I…read moredon't live here and was just visiting. If I lived here, this would be my GO TO spot for ALL my coffee needs. The space is thoughtfully designed with many furniture pieces from repurposed goods. It is spacious with a light, bright airy feel. All the "baristas" were so welcoming and friendly. They seemed to enjoy their job and their coworkers. They set off a very cohesive vibe. I wish I could have spent the morning just being there but had to leave for a funeral. So many things caught our eye! The baked goods were devine. The T-shirts were super soft and I would have bought one of they had our sizes. The roasted coffee beans were priced fairly. I haven't even gotten to the coffee yet! There were so many iced coffee/cold brew options it was really hard to choose. We ended up selecting the Lemon Pistachio shortbread cookie, a Ginger Molasses cookie, a seasonal scone: Honey Cinnamon, an iced Latte and an iced Vanilla Bean Latte: 1/2 sweet and a bag of Classic Espresso beans. My only sadness was I should have gotten a large latte instead of a regular. We saved the desserts for after the funeral and enjoyed the yummy coffees on our way. The Ginger Molasses cookie was perfect. Moist and chewy and not too much ginger. I should have bought more! The Lemon Pistachio cookie had a lovely balance of lemon zest and fine pieces of pistachio in the cookie and a not too tart lemon glaze and pieces of pistachio on top. It wasn't dry or super dense either. Someone making these is an experienced baker! The Honey Cinnamon scone was the best scone we have ever had. It was messy but so worth it. If you want an entire coffee experience, you have to visit Scout Coffee on Foothill Blvd in SLO. You will not stop thinking about what a beautiful experience it was after you've gone.

The girl wouldn't serve me because they said we don't open until 6:30, we just have the door open for people. People? What am I? I think she meant employees... Anyways, I came back because my girl needed that Matcha (you know how it is) Ordered a LARGE iced matcha and a croissant. $10. When I was handed an Obvious medium maybe even a small arbiter shops I told them I asked for large and she looked at me like I was stupid and said "This is OUR Large".
