These are gourmet doughnuts, or cronuts! They are crispy and flaky on the outside, and soft on the inside, like a buttery croissant. The menu is simple, concentrating on featuring the donuts, and there is a good variety of flavors. I also had the honey cinnamon cold brew which was excellent. Dont mind the picture! I couldnt resist taking a bite first. Worth the visit, a treat to enjoy while out and about.

Excellent donuts. I am not really a donut fan, but I was drawn in by the cool interior and look of the store. I tried their sandy beach donut and I have to say that easily it is a 5/5. Trendy look and a great vibe inside the store. Staff was very friendly. Highly recommend going if you have some time. Location is also near some great eats as well. Most popular donuts are the sandy beach, french toast, and some others.

Delicious doughnuts! So flakey and Krispy. We go here every time we visit Oceanside. Best if you get them early in the morning. My absolute favorite was the churro and I love the strawberry one too. Its the perfect distance walk from the pier and we would even walk from North Coast Village.

Love the donut 🍩🍩 here. It not like the other corner donut. These are bake fresh everyday n it base on a crossent. While here, you can eat n go for a walk along the beach n Oceanside Pier to burn it off. They also have vegan, keto n gluten free donuts too

Very fresh. Flavor and texture are outstanding. Bad for your figure but good for your soul for 5 minutes.Flavor from top left to bottom right: strawberry shortcake, blueberry, chocolate, campfire, French toast, and maple bacon. Kitty not included.Missing opportunity for not roasting the marshmallows on the campfire.

Looking for a different kind of doughnut flare? This is the place! Delicious varieties like Maple Bacon, Raspberry, Campfire, Strawberry Shortcake to name a few and trust me you wont want to share! These are pretty filling so you may want to take an extra home for later. Totally worth the trip!

The donuts/cronuts are so good. Really good 👍 must go try at least once!!! Coffee was good too ❤ but IF you decide to get a breakfast sandwich ask for salt n pepper or your choice of condiment because our egg chse bacon croissant was very bland. We went with a coconut cream and raz filled 😋

A must stop if in the Oceanside area. Donuts are amazing! Their cold brew is also yum!

Wowza. What a treat. Culinary extreme flavors for doughnuts!It was definitely a sugar overload, but totally worth the crash.Seating is a bit janky (all the tables/chairs wobbled), and you’re likely to wait in line.We tried the strawberry shortcake and Reese’s. Both were delish. I preferred the fruity one, my bf preferred the Pb/chocolate one.

Everytime I come to Oceanside I stop at the Parlor Doughnuts. My favorites are the Turtle Cheesecake and Maple Bacon. They also have doughnuts for your fur babies.

Some of the best donuts and in this case cronuts I have ever had! Love the different flavors they had and they are light and fluffy so it makes you feel somewhat less guilty pounding a whole one by yourself. New favorite dessert place in Oceanside! I got the french toast and the dandy beach and both were good! Cant wait to go back and try some of the fruity flavors.

You know how when you get a cinnamon roll and you are hoping the whole thing will be soft and warm and easy to tear with your teeth or fingers but then sometimes only the center fulfills your hopes and dreams -- the whole parlor doughnut every bite will satisfy these very wants and needs -- kind of like a gentle cozy dough pillowpuff hug texture for the tastebuds -- also appreciated modeling the #safetyhelmetllife

The best donuts Ive ever had in my life!! If youve never been there, its a must visit shop, and as soon as you go once youll see what I mean, youll definitely return for more. Dont be intimidated by a sizable line at times. The reward is worth the wait!

Donuts are actually good but today, I had a surprise in my cronut. This is the 3rd time there was something in my donut. There are times as well that their display station has flies inside.

Absolutely love this place! I’ve come so many times since they opened in Oceanside. I’ve tried almost every option and have loved them all! They also have dog donuts and gluten/vegan ones as well.

Review №21

Good cronuts (croissants topped like donuts). Never had them before this, but they are lighter and more airy than normal donuts but still pack a flavorful and unique topping. While average donut price is higher, they really do stand in a class of their own.Wife had their lavender coffee and said it was delish too!

Great looking donuts with a great taste. Big but light and fluffy. My personal favorite donut is the strawberry shortcake but there are many other flavors available.

Parlor Doughnuts has tasty dougnuts and so many great-looking flavors! They have about 20 different flavors. A little on the pricy size but definitely worth the try.

Review №25

The donuts are outrageously good. The coffee is really good as well. My 3star rating is based on the cleanliness of the counters and the patio area. If they could address these issues, I’d increase my ratings.

I saw some coworkers eating these, and my mind was blown with how good they looked. I took my family there the following Saturday and all our minds were blown! These cronuts are amazing! They have a great selection of flavors. Every one Ive tried so far has been amazing. I cant wait to eat here again!

Review №29

The donuts were amazing. I doubt think they even needed the toppings/flavor on the donut because that part was just good, but of course there is which made it taste that much better. The service was fast and they were friendly. I will take my family back when we vacation out that way again. I do recommend this place.

The best donuts that I have ever had! I had the Bourbon Caramel and it was delicious. A very busy store, but the line moves along nicely. A lot of people bring their dogs and that just makes the experience more enjoyable.

I’m glad we tried it, but I think I like normal donuts better than cronuts. There are no filled ones either, which is kind of a bummer.Flavors and pastry were yummy.

A must stop now when visiting Oceanside. I stopped by to try one and now I am hooked. All the flavors are great...Strawberry one my favorite. I made a special trip before going to the airport to get a 1/2 dozen to take home!! Great product and very friendly staff!!

Review №39

The donuts were amazing and so was the service. We had the maple bacon, dreamcicle, blueberry, and french toast donuts. We also had a delicious caramel latte. The only thing that was a bit to bitter for us was the regular coffee. Will definitely visit again and soon!

Crispy, flaky balls of heaven topped with sticky sweet glaze. I had one for breakfast then went back the same day for dinner dessert. The kombucha is also excellent if thats your thing.

Ry
Review №41

Croissant style doughnut with various dessert toppings you normally see these days. You can either find a long line or no line at all. Also, the doughnuts do not hold up well for the next day and better consumed day of. Coffee is also just ok.

Review №42

These donuts are great. I will say if you’re looking for something more authentic or “hole in the wall” you won’t find them here. These are more on the gourmet side of the spectrum. Great tasting none the less. I’ve been about 3 times. And the French toast one is my favorite so far. I plan on trying all the flavors💪

Review №43

Amazing creations here. Ive been telling all my friends they are a must go. Staff is very friendly. One of the donuts I wanted was all out and they had no problem going in the back for me to get a new tray. Completely professional, kind and answered all my questions with a genuine smile. Great establishment by far!!! I will be back and continue to brag about them to all that will listen :)

Great coffee spot, but come here for the Doughnuts! Ordered the cold brew which was delicious and had me wired, which help me wash down the super soft, crunchy, but flavorful raspberry pistachio doughnut. Definitely need to try all the other flavors!

Tried the vegan donuts here. Wow, they were bad. Very crumbly, overly sweet, bad coconut flavor. Couldnt even finish. Today we went to Broad Street Dough Co. in Encinitas instead, and it was about 1000x better (also vegan and GF).

Doughnuts were super pretty. Great location. The taste was ok. Price wasnt terrible. The experience was terrible. They want you out as fast as possible without even a smile. Service 1 star. Food 3 star. I gave 2 star

Instead of trying to describe how amazing these donuts are, Ill just say that we drive from Valley Center to Vista, then bike 9 miles to get our donuts (Sandy Beach is my favorite!). Its worth it. Friendly service and nice location too!

This is my first time having a layered donut and they did a good job. They didnt have coffee options this morning and the coffee was just okay. Im unsure if they have plates, knives and forks, but I would have preferred to eat with cutlery and I didnt see any on my quick glance around.The donuts did seen to err on the sweet side. Im not looking for a savory donut, but it doesnt need to scream sugar. Ill visit again and try a different selection to see if there is something that just nails it (but Ill probably bring my own coffee.)

So many fun flavors to try, these unique doughnuts type pastry and a new take of a classic donut. The flavors are great and sweet without being overly sugary. Will be back soon to try more of their doughnuts!

Jo
Review №58

Best donut so far. Tried the Reeses and it was so, so good. Flaky, crusty fried texture, yet surprisingly fluffy, soft, chewy melt in your mouth good. I thought the chocolate covered dripped peanut butter sauce would be killer sweet; but no, not at all, it was a perfect blend of magnificent taste. Thank you for the bites. The pic is the strawberry shortcake and glazed that were equally good!

Review №59

One of the best doughnuts Ive had across the US. About a dozen varieties freshly made throughout the day, espresso and coffee. A perfect trifecta for me! Their doughnuts are considered layered, which I believe means layered sheets of dough. This cooks up like a croissant with a nice crusty exterior and airy interior. So good!!!

Great donut and an instant part of downtowns charm for morning sugar-fare. Its a unique donut for sure. You have to give this place a go.

Stopped by to grab a latte with my nephew, and I fell for the maple bacon doughnut just the right amount of sweet and salty on an unconventional bread.

Big rave anticipation. Donuts are good, but its a matter of taste. Crispy Cremes are better for me. Variety is interesting, and price $2.50 each not horrible.

This place is amazing. I loved the blueberry doughnut and the Reeses doughnut. I dont know exactly how they make their doughnuts but its not like anything Ive had before and thats a good thing. The staff and owners are very caring. Who wouldnt want to support this place. If you are in Oceanside, go check them out.

Review №72

Great layered doughnuts with a huge selection of flavors. Good prices for a gourmet treat. They also have Keto doughnuts which actually taste good. Fun vibe and conveniently located near the beach. Try one the next time you are in Oceanside. Choose the French Toast flavor if you are having trouble deciding. Delicious.

Review №73

Donut or croissant? Im not a baker or maybe I missed the sign saying they were cronuts, but these seemed like really great croissants with yummy toppings... not a donut (hence the 3 stars). Regardless, very good!

Love the decor of the little place. Kind of has a vintage vibe going. The donuts look beautiful on display and they have many flavors. But the donuts are just ok. Flavor is good but texture is more like a flaky pastry than a doughy donut. I tried the Carnival flavor.

Dear sweet baby Jesus…. Hands down, THE. BEST. FRIKKIN. DONUT. ANYWHERE.I don’t really like donuts. Don’t get me wrong, I eat them, but I can pass them up easily. Not these, though. I rode my bike 3 miles one way every day of my vacation to eat them!!The dough is just something special and I’m not sure how to describe it, other than very very different than any other I’ve ever eaten. If I had to classify, they’d be in the old fashioned donut category, but that’s not really even fair. They are incredible!!I tried the avocado toast… divine!!I tried the bacon egg and cheese croissant… out of this world.I tried the raspberry filled donut holes… best.65 cents I’ve ever spent.Totally worth the wait. The line moves fast, so don’t get itchy and go elsewhere. Trust the process!!You’re welcome!

Really nice location and very creative looking donuts. The doughnuts were good and if you love croissants then maybe you will love it. I was not expecting a croissant texture since I did not look at reviews before walking in so it was not my favorite. If Im ever in the mood for a croissant doughnut then I will definitely stop by here again.

A different twist on doughnuts done right. They are a lighter artisan style dough with savory flavors rather than the overly sweet doughnuts. Just keep in mind they are rich. Dont expect people to eat more than 1 in spite of them being so good!
