Christy's Donuts

Unassuming donut shop located next to a gas station. There are not a lot of parking spaces, and it can get a bit crowded at peak hours. Inside is nothing more than a typical southern California donut shop. On the weekends it's very common to see a group of old men chatting on the few tables inside. Also on weekend mornings, you can expect a line, but it moves quickly. The donuts are usually very good, nice and fresh. The raised donuts are light and airy, with that yeasty goodness. The cake donuts also have a good texture. We usually get extra and they are still relatively fresh 2 or 3 days after we buy them. One of the downsides is the service. Their English is limited, and sometimes they can get snappy with you. Other times they are bright and cheerful. It's not enough to keep me away, since they always get my order right. I have had a couple of donuts that were subpar, like a glazed donut whose glazed had melted in the dount and one time they were super greasy and tasted of old fat. These were few occasions that the donuts were not good, but you have understand they make them daily and everyone can have an off day. Bring cash if you want to avoid the sneaky credit card fee. The donuts are reasonably priced.

If you haven’t been to Christy’s Donuts in Ontario yet, you’re seriously missing out! The staff here are super nice, and the place is always clean with seats if you want to chill and enjoy your food. One thing I really want to shout out are the frappes — they have a bunch of great flavors! For the crème frappes, they’ve got Strawberries & Crème, Vanilla Bean Crème, Cookies n Cream, and Green Tea. Then for coffee lovers, there’s Caramel, Mocha, and Pumpkin Spice. Honestly, for only $5, they’re a nice little treat whether you want something sweet and creamy or a coffee pick-me-up. And they come in a pretty big size too! 😋 If you’re feeling hungry too, you’ve got to try the ham and cheese croissants — they come regular or with jalapeño if you like a little spice. So good, especially warm! They even sell stuff like Advil, Tylenol, Motrin, and Excedrin for just $1, which is super handy. The donuts are really affordable too — $1.50 for regular ones, $2 for specialty, or you can get a box to save some cash. Oh, and they’re open all night and day except from 1 pm to 4:30 pm in the afternoon, so you can grab your favorites basically anytime. Seriously, it’s a great spot if you want a late-night snack or early morning treat. Give Christy’s a try — you’ll probably end up going back like me!

Met the sweetest girl here last night, she was so helpful and so kind! The donuts were also so yummy, and would come again just for the service!

The beautifuly seductive 4am aromas that ride the winds, crosses the street & slips through my cracked bedroom window are glorious to awaken to. Especially when the summer heat is heavy with the local farms fertilizer stench (if you are local then you get it) They have a wide variety of fried glutinous wads smothered in saccharides with every variety of glucose, fructose, and sucrose readily available, fresh as it gets and if you are an early bird you can get them while they are still hot!!! (My favorite) They are artists of the carbohydrate medium. Prices are great! Definitely get the quantity and value for your bucks. Staff are almost always the same people (pretty sure they own it) they are always a delight, happy to see you, ready to fill your box or bag full of new years resolution violations! They've got half a dozen staples that go pretty quickly so I suggest an early visit. The apple fritters, bear claws, cinnamon twists, and custard filled chocolate coated ones are my essentials, I usually toss in a pistachio one, a colorful sprinkles one for my inner child lol a jelly, a plain iced and a few cake ones.... I always go big with the dozen and then nibble for days on them at midnight while standing at the kitchen counter. Hahhah

The donuts from this shop were incredibly fresh and delicious, making them a true delight to eat. The texture was perfectly soft and fluffy, which created a wonderful mouthfeel with every bite. Moreover, the variety of flavors offered was impressive, ensuring there was something for everyone to enjoy. Overall, the shop's fresh, yummy donuts are a must-try for anyone with a sweet tooth. I highly recommend visiting to experience these delightful treats firsthand.

Loved the donuts and it was definitely affordable. My father had been going there for years before we had to move. The donuts especially the bear claws are delicious. I believe they're the best donuts in California

I’ve been going here since 2010. Get the ham, cheese, and jalapeño croissant, you won’t regret it. It’s so delicious! Staff is always so friendly. Love Christy’s Donuts!

Christy's is the best. Open 24 hours , and on my shift it's hard to to find anything open . But I usually just get a mixed dozen . I've loved everything I've tried so far . I usually take them into work with me , which is basically a warehouse full of people. And everybody loves them. So if you're ever around at that time of night or during the day time for that matter it's always worth it . I don't know how they do it . But they're always tasty like fresh from the oven tasty and most places stop making fresh donuts when they get throw the rush hours. But I've never tasted a day old there . Lol But I totally recommend going to Christy's.

We have been in the area for 30 years. We used to be regulars at the donut shop on Vineyard/Riverside now this new ownership at Christys have turn things around. Went from a slow donut shop to a busy one. Donuts are good priced and very fresh. Go early in the morning!

Ruben Benitez

Always fresh donuts with great selection, personal favorite is the chocolate Bavarian creme filled, but I always get that no matter where I go, just my thing. Ham and cheese croissant is also good , with or without jalapeño. Same owners since forever, that's always a good thing so you know things stay the same.

Love this place. Great donuts but the people there are what make it special. So friendly! Every time I'm there I see them greet folks like they've known them for years (they probably have), asking about family, etc. There's no eating inside right now but love to see the older folks hanging outside and catching up over a cup of coffee before continuing on with their weekend. Such a nice neighborhood place.

Great family owned donut shop serving the community. Resonable and tasty from standard donuts to blueberrie donuts, flaky ham & cheese breakfast Crossiant to breakfast ceral donuts.

The first time I went at 4 a.m., I had big, amazing hot donuts. The second time, I went very small donuts, not fresh. I'm not sure what's going on with the tiny donuts.I had an apple fritter that was a great price big size on July 12,2024 small donuts and not fresh I haven't been back since and not to mention very rude ladies.

Every time I go, around 2am to 5am, for some reason they always out of glaze donuts. If that's what people buy the most why can't they make extra or more of that kind. So so far of 5-6 times I've been there i haven't been able to taste their glaze donuts.

These donuts were good years ago. The past few times we have gotten them, they have not been very good. Today's donuts were flat, not fluffy and not coated well. Hoping the quality will go back to how it used to be.

Racism from immigrants towards Black Americans needs to be studied because it never makes any sense. And like most racism, it's subtle, small and can almost go unnoticed unless you catch it. But I caught onto it one morning at Christy's Donuts. Now the only reason I stopped here on 7/21 is because the usual donut shop I go to, Donut Xpress (which is less than a mile up Archibald near the 60 freeway) was closed for some reason. I guess it hadn't opened yet. So because of this I decided to stop at Christy's and try them out. I had seen it there for years and had never gone so it was a perfect opportunity to give it a try. When I walked in, there was a couple that was being helped; the man was ordering a bunch of donuts and donut holes while the wife sat at one of the tables waiting on him to finish up. To the right of us were a group of older men having their morning coffee and chatting it up. I was next so I stood directly in front of the counter where I could be seen; another man walked in and stood behind and to the side of me so he could be seen as next. One of the two older Asian women behind the counter continued to help the couple with their big order, getting the donut holes together and then going to check them out. The other older Asian woman, who was helping with the couples order, stops and then comes over to, what I assumed was to help me with my order as I was next. Then that subtle racism I mentioned, happened. Leaning on the counter, she calls out "Next!" Now remember, I said I was standing directly in the middle of the counter where I could be seen so that they knew I would be next. Not only that, there was only me and one other customer waiting. Why is she saying next as if there's a line or crowd of people in there waiting? While she says this, she won't look directly at me, even though, again, I'm standing directly in front of her and looking straight at her. She looked around me, as if I wasn't there. Only when I said "Hello" with the inflection of "What the hell are you doing?" did she look straight at me. I ordered my donut, paid and left. Suffice to say, I won't be back here. If you can't treat all customers the same and with some semblance of respect, and you're treating them differently because of the color of their skin, you shouldn't be in business. Oh and the donuts weren't that great either.
