Extremely delicious. Way better than dunkin' donuts, I think. I tried dunkin' once and now I know to always go to The Jelly Donut. I have always been greeted warmly by the staff. read more

I love the Jelly Donut. I went in today for some last minute donuts for a work meeting. As always I was greeted warmly when I entered the door. They had a large selection and was very nice when I asked her to please choose for me. They're quick without making you feel rushed. It shop is small but welcoming with a fairly large donut & beverage case. They also have several breakfast sandwich options. The jelly donut will continue to be my go to shop read more

First time and LAST time here... We were excited to try this place out since our usually spot is the World Donuts off of Capitol Exp and Capitol Ave, and decided to try The Jelly Donut from all the "good" reviews. We were helped out by the elderly woman at the shop. We ordered: -2 Jalapeño hot dogs (Requested to be warm) The jalapeño hot dogs were not warm. They were very tough and hard to chew as if it was days old. -2 Sugar donuts Too airy and not enough dough -1 Viet Coffee When this was served to us, the lady didn't even make eye contact with us but just passed the coffee on the counter. It was mainly filled with just ICE, and not even filled with coffee to the top. We let her know right away that it was just ice, and she just said "Yeah thats ice coffee". Instead of going back and forth with her on it, we just left in disappointment. (Please see the pictures). -Payment When it came time to pay, we asked if there was a card charge and she said no. When we swiped our card, it asked to give a tip and she said "just pick one" - meaning tip was required with no option to not give tip. read more

I have no idea how this place has 4.5 star reviews. Asked for an iced coffee and received what tasted like 100 grams of sugar. Quality is non existent at this place. You'd think for $15 for a coffee and a sandwich it would atleast be somewhat decent, nope. Maybe their donuts are significantly better. read more

I like coming here for those donuts and cronuts holes! I always get the regular glaze with custard and the cronut both glaze and cinnamon with custard. It's the perfect breakfast snack to share since everyone at work is always cautious about their diet. I like getting the custard because it's not too sweet. I did get their latte the other day and it was pretty mid. Next time I will try their Vietnamese coffee and maybe their breakfast sandos, those look pretty good too! Super friendly cashier and staff! read more

The breakfast sandwich was fresh, hot, and absolutely delicious. The ingredients tasted high quality, the croissant bread was perfectly toasted, and everything was cooked just right. The portion size was satisfying, and the service was fast and kind. I'll definitely be coming back to try more from the menu. Highly recommend if you're looking for a great breakfast sandwich or donuts read more

My favorite donut place in San Jose. Homey and a small business that makes the best cronuts ever! I love this place so much and it's always a comfort place for me to pick up a ham & cheese croissant when I'm missing home. The owners are super sweet and sooooo generous! Sweetest ladies I have ever met! Definitely give this place a try! read more

Jelly Donut is an okay spot in the area to grab a donut. I don't know if I would go out of my way for it, but they're still decent donuts. My main complaint was the service. I came in, and the lady behind the counter was nice enough, but had no idea what types of donuts they had, and couldn't provide much in the way of info or recommendations. I'm not even positive if she normally works there, or if she is just a relative of the woman who rang me up? It was kinda weird... read more

Their cronuts are good so we get them a lot. My only complaint is that when I order them through Doordash they often send them out in a paper bag instead of a box which makes us not want to order them. Some dashers put them in a bag but often they're just put on their seats or somewhere else in their car, which isn't sanitary. They arrived slightly warm which makes me think they were sitting in the heat or the sun somewhere and a box gives them a little more protection. read more

Oh my gooooddnessss. I didn't know I could love a simple turkey sandwich so much! I got mine on a croissant. It had bacon, veggies, cheese, all that good stuff. It tasted so fresh and yummy. I also loved the iced vanilla latte because it wasn't so sweet like most are. It was the perfect breakfast combo. Not to mention so well priced. read more

Didn't eat there myself, but my coworker brought over their cronuts to share and w o w. I only tried the maple cronut, but it was so good. Perfectly flaky and not too sweet. Definitely want to go back to try the other flavors! read more

This donut spot is located in a small plaza with plenty of parking. It takes less than 15 minutes to pick out the best tasting donuts and walk out the door. They have a variety of donuts: Sprinkles, Ube, Strawberry, Crullers, Old fashioned, and apple fritters. Anyways, I definitely recommend y'all stop by and grab a box when you're in the area. read more

Was looking for cronut holes. Called around and this is the only place that answered and had them! They were a hit. Dangerous though. It's too easy to walk buy the box 20 times and take one little cronut or donut hole. I probably ate a dozen myself. Service was very nice and she was patient while I was trying to figure out what I wanted. read more

My coworker and I picked up their breakfast sandwiches and they were so good! It was a bit pricey. I like that they give you an option between a bagel or croissant because I love croissant sandwiches. They're super generous with their proteins. The staff were super kind and quick with making 3 sandwiches. read more

If I could give this place a 10/5, I would! The cinnamon sugar cronut holes filled with custard are OUT OF THIS WORLD! Perfectly crispy yet soft with a creamy center. Best part is that they aren't ridiculously sweet. The glazed donut holes with custard were great too but the cronut holes definitely stole the show. I will defffinnniiitteelllyyy be getting these again. read more

Here is my two cents on the quality quantity and price of this the jelly donut.. it was delivered by Uber eats in a timely matter. And the driver had great outstanding communication. I requested 2 cups of coffee, three old-fashioned donuts, one apple fritter a strawberry strudel . And a regular oat donut.. All I got in my order was one coffee, one old-fashioned donut, and one apple freighter . I don't know who screwed up most likely the jelly donut shop, and not so much Uber eats . so it's obviously someone at the donut shop could not read instructions from Uber eats. And my French roast doughnut, though was prepared with proper sugar and cream it was lukewarm at that upon arrival . The old-fashioned and the apple fritter it seem like they were made today, but that is unsure.. I doubt if I shall ever try this place again . read more

My boyfriend and I were craving a breakfast sandwich from a local donut shop. Saw that we were nearby The Jelly Donut and decided to give them a try! When we walked in, we saw a small line. It was moving pretty slow, but understandable because only 2 people were working. One person making the sandwiches and one person handling everything else. We ordered a Vietnamese iced coffee and wanted an egg, bacon and cheese on croissant but they ran out of croissants, so we ordered it on sourdough bread. I would say skip on the vietnamese iced coffee, it tasted burnt. Not sure if it was just a bad coffee day or if that is how it usually tastes. The breakfast sandwich was good, would have wanted to try it on the croissant but the sourdough bread was good and you can actually taste the sour in the bread. The cronut and custard-filled donut holes were good. There wasn't a lot of custard filling in the donut holes though. The shop was small, but they had a good selection of donuts and a variety of sandwiches. read more

We were looking for bagels and were near here. This place has: bagels, donuts, croissants, sandwiches. 5am-7pm daily The bagels are not the main event here, and seem like they might have been purchased at an inexpensive grocery store, so we won't be returning for those. They had the large shape, and fluffy bready texture one sometimes finds in chain grocery store bagels. They're probably meant only for their bagel sandwiches, not to-go for breakfast like we did. We were given a free day old donut to try, but it tasted like old oil to me, unfortunately. However, I'm sure that's not a fair representation of what their donuts are like usually. read more

I believe it to be the best donut shop in San Jose! Great quality and ingredients! Fresh and warm goods here! Lots to choose from! Very kind service The smell brings you back to a time of innocent fun and laughs while choosing one of your favorite donuts behind the glass! The excitement is so fun Donuts, eagles, cronuts, coffee, sandwiches! Maybe just try one of each! read more

Cronut holes! The dough is perfect for a cronut. The filling is a nice surprise. Their filling is on the sweet side, and I've only tried their custard filled donut holes and cronut holes. Both yummy but so sweet, you can only eat a few before you get a sugar rush. Definitely one of the better donut shops out there and a real treat for coworkers if you pick up donuts or cronuts here for the office. Staff are nice and helpful. This donut shop is located in the same plaza as The Kickin Crab. read more

This place is a core memory from my childhood. My dad would take me here on Saturday mornings for donuts since I was 8 years old (been going here since 2008). We always get glazed donuts, sugar donuts (my dads favorite), maple donuts, and some donut holes. I'm very happy their prices have always remained low. I love this place so much :') read more

Everything about this place was perfect. The service was wonderful, friendly workers, and hardly a wait to order or receive our items. They had so many choices for donuts, cronuts, breakfast sandwiches, and beverages. It was hard to choose what do get on a Saturday morning, with the place fairly empty and the display case fully stocked with pastries! I ended up getting my regular, an iced mocha, and we got a couple breakfast sandwiches and cronuts to share. Everything was OMG yummy!! My iced mocha was a freshly made concoction of chocolatey goodness. My breakfast sandwich came with flavorful and juicy pieces of sausage and bacon, fluffy egg, a layer of melted cheese, and a flaky and buttery croissant, which altogether was so satisfying! And the chocolate cronut was a delectable treat as well, soft and buttery with a sweet chocolate glaze to create the perfect flavor... simple but way better than your ordinary donut, plus there's no such thing as too much chocolate! :D I highly recommend the Jelly Donut, and will be sure to return for more. read more

I've visited this location three times in the last couple of months! For a Saturday morning they weren't a lot of people in line (very surprised) but when we visited (the next day) Sunday around early morning there were a couple people in front of me. It's easy to just get a dozen donuts, but try the cronut holes, THEYRE SO GOOD! The breakfast sandwiches are freshly made and are soo filling. This place feels like you're walking into a family friend's shop, everyone is so welcoming and friendly. I look forward to waking up early on weekend and walking here. :) read more

Very sweet staff and really nice interior! There's lots of seating and it is very festively decorated! The only downside is the parking-- which is two spaces out front, other than that, will be returning for all my donut needs and smiles! read more

Love the Cronuts. They even have cronut holes. The glazed is the best one. Great variety of donuts and always fresh. The breakfast sandwiches are great too but be patient they make it fresh and takes time. The drink variety is great too. The staff is super courteous . Always clean. read more

Called at 1:35 to check about their menu. Am walking distance from their place. First time they picked up the hung up. Second they responded by saying not answering the question and say we close at 2pm. Can't say much about their food but service is already bad for me. read more

Went in early morning to pick up some donuts for my bfs birthday. The donuts were delicious and the service was excellent! The woman who worked there was so nice suggesting donuts for me to try, and they all tasted amazing. Will definitely be returning here! read more

I've been here quite a few times right after working a graveyard shift usually friday-sunday and every time I've gone I've had excellent customer service from the ladies and the owner. They are very friendly and nice, sometimes they will start conversations with you if you're a regular customer while you wait for some of the items being prepared for you. Food that I usually order are the sandwiches, few donuts here & there, and breakfast sandwiches. They have a wide variety of selections on donuts, but I mostly get the cinnamon donut holes just because after a long day of work I just wanna have something sweet before I ko'd. read more

I don't like leaving " not so good" reviews,but The Jelly Donut is overpriced for not so great donuts. The glazed jelly donut was really underfilled. For $2.75 a donut it's just too much money for so little quality. I spent$10.60 for 4 donuts. I only came here cause the light rail is on strike and I was desperate for something sweet. The custard filled donuts I have had here were not that great.The custard was very thin and tasted rather artificial.I've had better donuts other places,but as I mentioned I was desperate! So if you are feeling a bit desperate as well this is the place to go. read more

Small mom and pop shop. I've been here twice and there usually only one girl working, sometimes two, and they're always super nice. They have a large variety of bagel/croissant sandwiches, donuts, and cronuts. They have 4 or 5 tables inside, not much, so they're pretty small. Their cronuts were huge with lots of crispy layers. Their jalapeño bacon ham egg and cheese sandwich on jalapeño cheese bagel was soooo good. read more

It was my first time trying this donut shop, despite living around the area for years. I was surprised when I saw their cronuts. To my knowledge, there's only one donut spot nearby that sold cronuts. I got a bagel breakfast sandwich, croissant sandwich, chocolate cronut and apple fritter. The sandwiches are delicious, flavorful and fulfilling. Cronut wasn't too sweet and it was flaky. The Apple fritter is huge with apple bits. Service was quick and staff were friendly. The shop offers a variety of bottled drinks, breakfast and lunch sandwiches, and donuts. Definitely worth checking out. read more

10/10 recommend this donut shop. I was out with my family, treating ourselves to a treat, I was craving something sweet, and luckily we ended up at baskin Robbin's, when I saw this donut shop still open. We decided to stop by, service was impeccable, I forgot the ladies name but she was so sweet and kind and offered great customer service. She sold me on the Vietnamese iced coffee (which was delicious) we ordered 2 sandwiches, and ordered some donuts. She even gave me a few cronut samples to try out. It was very clean and a very cute donut shop. We will definitely be coming back. Everything was so delicious and satisfying. read more
