    My experience at Winchells was a great one. We went at a late time and were surprised that the worker was nice, energetic and quick with everything we asked for. The place was clean, well organized and felt comfortable enough to eat at even though it was late night and pretty deserted. Now that I've been to this location I for sure cannot wait to experience the other locations. I LOVED the donuts we picked out and we thank the worker who was there for helping us pick them out. She was sure to tell us her opinion about the ones she enjoyed and we loved that!

    Winchell's pulling thru this morning with my coffee. Only $2.50 for a large, sweet. The have baby donuts for 89 cents each or 6 for 5 bucks. I got an extra one I think on accident but I will take it. I tried every single flavor and they're all good, but glazed was the surprising underdog, it's very moist. The blue one is blueberry and tastes like Trix cereal or something. It's not bad but does have that energy drink artificial flavor vibe to it. Donuts are life. Service is not bad, I think they primarily speak Spanish even though this strip mall is almost entirely Chinese I think.

    Dessert is good and decious

    Coffee is good,service is warm and nice!Walnut muffin is great ,the Winchell's donut shop has a clean

    Clean and organized store.

    As a kid, Winchell's was synonymous with donuts, like "Xerox" was used interchangeably with "photocopy." There seems to be fewer of these stores around these days, which is too bad, because Winchell's is everything a donut store should be: clean, organized, affordable, and offer a wide selection. I'm on a donut hiatus-- health goals and stuff. But in Rowland Heights, on those cold swim meet mornings at the high school, you can't beat this place for convenience. Couldn't find a 7 Eleven south of the 60 on Colima, so this place became my coffee jam all weekend. Jessica behind the counter was really sweet and took great care of me... even while some angry lady in front of me, who resembled a javelina with Oppositional Defiance Disorder, got all bent out of shape because she had to walk two steps to get packets of sugar for her coffee and seven donuts before waddling to her car, where she proceeded to consume all of them, crumbs covering the front of her sweatshirt. Only know 'cause she was parked next to me. Oh well, can't please everyone. Keep up the good work, Jessica, and everyone at this Winchell's. Someday I'll be back in the apple fritter bandwagon, and I'm coming to see you.

    Today 5/25/23 8:39am check #294 Server: Kenia A Went in and it was busy but there were 3 girls serving. The girl with the colored eyes took our order right away and we waited. We noticed that everyone was getting their food except us and noticed no one was making sandwiches. When we told them no one knew nothing nor was it put on the screen. One told the other one that she didn't help us. They made it and gave it to us. The girl that gave it to us wasn't one of the 3 original girls that were there she had been in the back. No one apologized. No said sorry. We didn't want anything free just a simple apology. This is the second time it happens to us where they've forgotten to make our order. The same group of girls. We couldn't believe it. Stop chit chatting and gossiping and get to work. It's very unacceptable and it's understandable that mistakes can happen but if a mistake happens and especially for the second time, the least you can do is apologize. But nothing. VERY VERY DISAPPOINTING!!! & disgusting. Have manners and care. If not don't work where you deal with people.

    Don't sleep on Winchell's because they are open 24/7. The Chillas (iced slushies) are really well made and only cost about $4.99 for a large size. They had a lot of options for different bagel sandwiches but we chose to go with the Black Forest Ham and Pastrami bagel sandwiches, respectively. Both of them by the way were really good.

    12/21/22. Around 6pm. I went this place with my kids. We bought 3 donuts. My son and me asked to her "separate bag please~" but she didn't listen us. She didn't want to give me the separate bags. and she said, "Waste paper! " She is always in a hurry and very rude when serving. I ask to her"why you so rude, And.. she (the picture) talk to me "bitch" I'm not sure who is hiring this person. This is terrible horrible worst costumer service place. why they have so many bad reviews now I got it. Who wants to go there again? Don't need star. Zero.

    Friendly staff but could do better in making better food. I got the bacon egg and cheese burrito but it didn't have much bacon. See picture. Came with donut and medium coffee. Whole thing cost about $8.50. July 2021

There's POWER in that sugary flavor, but the donut base tastes flavorful and satisfying. It's a well made donut. (Important: Cash ONLY. Also, this location is primarily a Drive-Thru experience. You can see the displayed donuts as you drive into its hole. There are no tables.) I arrived at The Donut Hole (La Puente) on Sunday (around 3:20PM). Parking is very difficult since it's one long drive-thru area. Although it's possible to find free parking nearby, The Donut Hole (La Puente) is made for a drive-thru experience. It's more special if you drive into the intended path. Staff is professional, welcoming, and friendly. Staff cheerfully helped me, and Staff worked hard. On ambiance, The Donut Hole (La Puente) does feel very unique. Although there's no tables nor interior seating, it's a fun time if you drive through with your car. There's an adorable novelty to this car focused experience. Overall, although the Donut Hole (La Puente) is a little gimmicky and pricey, it's still a fun & lovely time. The donut felt well-made, and I left with a bright smile. 4.7 out of 5

If you come late morning, the selection can be limited. We paid $28.90 for a dozen mixed premium and regular doughnuts, which was reasonable in 2026? They are cash only - odd for 2026? I wouldn't go out of my way to come here just for the doughnuts, but if I'm on this side of town, I'll stop because driving through a giant doughnut is just fun. The world is hard. Why not drive through a doughnut when you can?

As mentioned, I ordered the Chocolate Donut with Sprinkles ($1.95). Not only is it very fresh, this donut is notably bigger than other donuts. I had to stretch my jaw a little to get a clean bite.

Also, the location felt chill from strong air conditioning. For donut shop standards, this is surprisingly one of the best. I felt very comfortable sitting at a table and enjoying my quality donut. Overall, Master Fresh Donuts (Hacienda Heights) is one of the best examples of "don't judge a book by its cover." This place screams "integrity" and "diligence." I left this business feeling optimistic, and if I squinted, I can imagine a bright rainbow cascading across the crystal blue sky. 5 out of 5

They make everything fresh daily, are family owned and operated, super hardworking and nice. I got their passion fruit green tea, croissant sando, glazed donut holes, buttermilk bar, Oreo, matcha filled, creme brulee, and tiger tail donuts to try. The passion fruit green tea was sweet, bright, fruity, had real passion fruit seeds and pulp inside but also a strong bitter green tea flave so it might not be for everyone. The croissant sando was MASSIVE and I added some smooth fatty avocado it too. The sando was filled with savory tender bacon, a juicy sausage patty, some scrambled eggs, and gooey American cheese, all on a buttery flakey croissant. Every donut was super light, fluffy, pillowy, airy, and nostalgic tasting. The donut holes had a crisp sugary glaze and so did the buttermilk bar which was more like a cake donut but still super delicate and light crumb and tasted a little Coconuty? The Oreo donut was topped with so many crunchy Oreo bits and a super sugary sweet icing. The matcha donut was covered in sugar and had a super earthy grassy fragrant whipped cream filling. The creme brulee donut had a nice crunchy sugar top and was filled with a sweet smooth cream. The tiger tail was coated with like a cinnamon almond streusel and had swirls of more cinnamon and almonds twisted in. They have this really cool deal that after 2pm if you buy a certain amount of donuts you can get some free. My faves were probably the tiger tail and creme brulee but Overall this place is pretty good.

Beyond the juice, their breakfast sandwich game is strong. You can customize your sandwich with a croissant, a bagel, wheat, sourdough's... you name it! They whip it up fast, and it tastes incredibly fresh and healthy. It's not just a donut stop; it's a whole little breakfast oasis. What I really love is the fresh juice, it's like a burst of health in a cup. I saw them mixing everything right in front of me, and it was so satisfying. Plus, they have a huge variety of smoothie options and you can even create your own dream combo from different fruits. It's like a playground for your taste buds, and the prices? reasonable. The staff? You can tell they're hardworking immigrants, and their dedication really shines. I saw a group of older ladies, fresh from church, sitting and chatting about life on a Sunday morning and when you see that kind of warmth, you just know this place is special. It's got that friendly, local charm that keeps people coming back. Of course, it's not spotless, but it's clean enough. this is a cozy neighborhood spot, not a fancy chain. And you know what? The freshness, the prices, and the community vibe? I'm already planning my next visit. I really want more locals to discover this placeI'll shout about it from the rooftops because it deserves all the love!
