Ive been coming here for years and love it! The only place where I can get plain or glazed blueberry donuts - my fave! The owners are so nice too. Never disappoints!
Great tasting donuts. Many varieties. By the box or single. Donut holes or chocolate covered. Fantastic with coffee or tea. Enjoy!
We often come here for fresh doughnuts after morning church services.
Historical donut shop in lake Elsinore. Where you can always get the freshest donuts and breakfast sandwiches. Good coffee and drinks. Must try the boba tea. Owners are very nice and generous.
This is the locals donuts shop with the line often out the door. They are very efficient and organized, so the line moves quickly. Even showing up around 9 am, there was an ample selection and all the display cases were full. So if youre someone who enjoys sleeping in on the weekend, don’t worry, you can still get fresh donuts here. They have a good selection of coffee, tea, and even boba drinks. Everything is very reasonably priced and prepared quickly.
My go to donut shop. Prices might be a little higher than some hole in the wall spots, but you can taste the quality difference here. And with a full menu of things other than donuts, you cant go wrong here
Vista Donuts has been around for years The owners Yen and Tom are the most successful business owners that I know.They always have the freshest donuts and their ham and cheese croissants are the bomb.I highly recommend makeing this your fix for coffee and donuts before starting your day.I am not related to the family or a sales person. This is my own personal experience with Vista Donuts of Lake Elsinore CA
My family has been go here forever. I went in there today which is 9/10/ 2018. I didnt have any cash which I never carry cash always use my bank cards. I used to be in the merchant service business. And I have to tell you that its quite outrageous that Merchants make a huge profit off charging $0.75 for every transaction. Not only are they paying for their merchant services but theyre making a profit. I dont agree with that. For that I give them a low rating. If you need to adjust your prices adjust them but dont throw out a $0.75 fee when youre spending a dollar. Or any amount.
Ok if your day starts here its a simple no brainer. I like to see at least a smile or some up beat positive person behind the counter. It wasnt bad service just bland like a plain cake doughnut...lack luster in all its former glory! Needing a bit of somthing new!
Totally the best. Also the best ownership
Delicious doughnuts that are light and fluffy. Ham and cheese croissant was excellent, and coffee drinks were good too.Definitely a local spot, and the only real downfalls is that they dont have a complete menu/prices displayed so you dont know prices or all that they sell (like the croissants) and they only take cash or debit.
Jason Salat &Janie AldayMy bf and I come here almost every Sunday to enjoy one of their Ham & Cheese Croissants and a Bovarian Cream filled Chocolate Donut. The quality of the food here is second to none in the I.E.!!!The service is equally as good. Fast,friendly, and efficient. 5 stars and 👍👌 from this local couple. Great place!!!!
They have ham and cheese tooFast service, parking is easy access you can also enter/exit into the Chinese restaurant drive around the back to the otherside.
Very comfy.... Great service, safe and comfortable atmosphere...Service was as if I was family...I sat there eating my old fashioned doughnut and drinking my milk, while enjoying the historical pictures of Lake Elsinore through at least a hundred years of great memories on this beautiful city...Five a thousand fold....
Theres nothing but positive feedback to say about this wonderful donut restrant! Friendly, respectable owners, great prices! Fresh daily made donuts. Boba drinks are to die for! The Green tea boba, avocado boba and honeydew boba are by far the best flavors. They hook it up🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Good selection of donuts and drinks. Great service.
Donuts are great.. nice big and sweet.. the place needs to be updated a bit.. drove by several times before realizing it was open...looks to dark. I dont give them 5 star due to a tiny incident.. we went in for some donuts..and the person in front was busy so a nice lady came out and starting taking our order... the older guy grumply told her he was going to take it.. but since he was busy and i was waiting with my disabled child, the lady continued helping us... then the older guy went towards her and in their language (guessing chinese/manderin) told her something and she left... he then took our order and almost forgot to put in the cake donut the lady had dispatched... maybe they were having an issue.. or maybe something to do with us.. but it just gave us creeps and felt uncomfortable.... but the donuts are good.
I have been coming here since I was a kid and will ALWAYS LOVE this place. Their doughnuts are delicious always stocked. My wife and I will always return for more delicious sweets.
Good donuts, good ham & cheese croissants, good service. I have not seen the rudeness some people have commented on. Ive been coming here since I moved to Lake Elsinore a year ago and have only had one incident where I asked and paid for four ham & cheese croissants and instead found when I got home with them that I got four regular croissants instead. That was a bummer but not enough to cost them a star. One time incident, accidents happen. What does cost them a star is the fact that they are cash only. I very rarely ever have cash on me. They have an ATM in-store but it costs you $2.50 plus whatever your bank is going to charge which in my case is another $2.50 and paying $5 to access my own money rubs me wrong. So when I come here, I have to always stop at my BofA ATM so I have cash which is a pain in the rear.
Great donuts and a good homey atmosphere, the women behind the counter is very kind, and helpful. Told me they had been there for more than 30 years, and its not a surprise, amazing
Best donuts around. That good classic taste I crave. Workers are fast and friendly . Clean well stocked with all kinds of drinks and lottery.
The lady at the cash register is incredibly rude and kept rushing my 65 year old grandmaEdit: Told the cashier she was being rude and shouldnt be rushing grandmas so she started screaming I am no rude! I am no rushing! Repetedly as we left the store. Im honestly surprised this place has 4+ stars out of 5
Nothing special about this place. Overpriced donuts, rude staff, no apples in the fritter, hidden charge to use debit card (did not mention it). Lots of places to go for donuts...dont go here. Im pretty sure you wont pay $20 for a dozen donuts elsewhere.
Im sorry, doughnut holes dry, juices extra expensive, prices way to high, never going back. People probably go there ca uh se theres not many in Elsinore, I can say it was clean and staff was nice. As far as that goes!
A mustplace to try. Everytime I travel to Lake Elsinore, I have to buy these donuts, they are always fresh and delicious !!!!, they stay fresh even the next day. Love it.
I will never go back there again I paid 15 bucks for 6 doughnuts and 3 milks at 2.50 a milk total rip off. Wen I went back to the place the people were very rude. Dont do business there they Suck.
Ive been going here since 1993 same people still running it. Best donuts in town. I love the ham n chesse croissants.
The owners take care of the counter and are really nice people, the place is clean and donuts are fresh.
Staff is very friendly. Best doughnuts in Elsinore

The very old building that it resides in hides the real gem inside. Great Donuts, good selection, good coffee and tea as well. Wonderful little Hideaway I must try
Always gone to this donut shop everything as far as donuts,bagels,ham and cheese and cheese danish are all pretty good. This place is a little bit pricey though compared to other donut shops around.
Thus place was very nice. Got the standard donut selection. The people working there are really nice
Phenomenal! Fresh! You can taste that the ingredients are fresh not processed! Light and fluffy! We drive in 20 miles to get them.
This place has the best donuts and coffee. Sometimes they are busy, but for good reason. Worth the wait
Kinda looks like a dive from the outside but really good fresh donuts. A little greasy but good flavor.

Its ok.. Its just donuts.. A bit too much of that after taste oily mouth feeling.. Its a quick fix type of place..
Youll catch your death.One woman behind the counter has her mask on her chin and the other has it only over her mouth and not her nose and they do not enforce mask usage with their customers.

Before they had a lot of variety but now it must be due to the pandemic that they have reduced the menu, totally understandable
The man is not kind at all, very delicious donuts but kindness is what counts a lot
There isnt much variety but it is acceptable.

Review №3
2023-01-09 23:27:211st time getting donuts here and will definitely be back. The donuts here are authentic, not some frozen pucks like a bunch of the chain ones. The buttermilk, old fashioned and cinnamon roll donut were beyond delicious. I spoke to the owner that has been there making old school donuts for 40yrs. The donuts here will not disappoint. I highly recommend!!

2022-03-28 20:31:36I drove an extra 5 miles to get these donuts because they had good reviews, never again. The donuts had been out all day, were dry and hard. They dont run the ac inside and there is poor circulation so it was hot and stuffy in there. The coffee had been made a long time ago and tasted burnt. Ill never go here again, I want fresh coffee & donuts please.

2021-06-22 10:59:25Very amazing place! I love the girl who was behind the baking area, every Saturday morning id always come and see her beautiful face cooking donuts. Other than that I love how they are so kind to their fellow costumers. Keep up the great work Vista workers. 👍

2020-03-02 15:58:50Its what youd imagine a classic donut shop to be, but its a little better than most Id say. The shop owners have a pretty good attitude, and the prices arent bad at all. You can get a large boba smoothie with a couple of donuts for about 7-8 bucks. It also has a few other things besides donuts, like muffins, pastries, lollipops, tea, coffee, and a whole bunch of typical drinks (monster, Arizona, coke, etc.) Definitely worth at least checking out if youre in the Lake Elsinore area.
