Christy's Donuts Danville Reviews
Great mom and pop donut shop right off 680’s Diablo Road exit. Best time to go for the best selection is by 8 am. Christy’s sells out pretty quickly. Definitely call in your order the day before if you have a big order to be sure you get what you want. Friendly staff. Peerless Coffee. Big flatscreen. A place to buy lottery tickets. Convenient ATM in the back corner.
Awesome local family owned donut shop. The donuts are always delicious and cooked perfectly. The owners are amazing and are always working so hard to produce an amazing product with a smile. Our kids always request Christy’s!

Best donut shop around! We love Christy’s Donuts. They are always nice and have the best donuts. We tried another shop one time when they were closed and it Christy’s is hands down better. My family and I go here every weekend. Cash only but they have an ATM machine if you need it.
Best donuts in Danville, California. The donuts are always fresh and delicious. The staff is the best around. Thank you for all you do in our community. You make sure the seniors at Sycamore Place are always taken care of. Your ongoing support is amazing. Thank you.
Christy’s is always my favorite. The Lady who works there is friendly and kind. She always gives me an extra dough or when I buy a dozen. Why go anywhere else? The doughnuts are always delicious and fresh. Highly recommended 👌😋👍
Just found this little place by Smart and Final on Diablo rd. Good donuts, good coffee. Want a step above? Order a bacon, egg, and cheese croissant!!! OMG, not on menu, but it will set you up for the rest of the day! And the people are top notch! Seriously, best place around for a quick grab!
You may think donuts are donuts, but these are transcendent. So soft and moist and delicious, great variety, excellent value; small family owned local establishment. I could eat my weight in donuts from this place.
Really good donuts, lots of selection, even super early morning. No waiting for donuts here like what I hear happens at Great Donuts in Alamo. Owner was super friendly and helpful.
Been going here for years (actually decades). The owners are awesome and always have something nice to say. The donuts and bagel sandwiches are delicious! It's a neighborhood hangout.
I get donuts for my guys every friday and have tried 8 different donut shops in the area and Christy's Donuts are hands down the best in the area. They are a little pricier than the other local shops, but worth it
Absolutely delicious that's how I would describe this place reminds me of mom and pop donut shops back in the day a little pricey and is cash only but still totally worth it they make absolutely amazing old-fashioned donuts I have tried quite a few different types and so far I have not found any that are not up to par if you're looking for one of the best donut shops in the Bay area this is the place.

went in to use their atm but stayed for the coffee and donuts. the owner is a super nice lady and i had a nice conversation with her. it was mostly empty when i went last time but whatever -- just means faster service for me! will need to stop by again at some point but probably should hit the gym a few more times before doing so :)
A lot of types of donuts at reasonable prices. The old-fashioned type of donut store is tucked away at the back corner of the strip next to the dry cleaners and the hair salon. When I say types I mean, Cake, Raised, French, Long Johns, Apple Fritters, Cinnamon Rolls, etc, each with plain, chocolate, maple and in some cases spiced crumbs. This place is very popular especially on the weekends, and they only bake overnight. So getting there early is essential to get a good selection to pick from. Haven't had a dud yet. They ask for 24 hrs notice for more than a dozen. And bring cash -> no credit <- CASH.
First time here. Ordered 2 donuts, fluffy and right amount of sweetness. Friendly owners. Not a lot of choices, cash only(good thing i have some in my wallet). Will come back again.
2 bucks for a glazed donut! The donut was good but come on it prolly cost 30 cents to make a glazed donut

Normally really good donuts to be had here. However running completely out of donuts at 930 is not great business. I understand the times and conditions we are currently in and will update after the pandemic

Service was poor and slow for being the only customers to grab 4 donuts and a coffee. And is this really the best you can do for a boston creme donut? Came here Sunday and they ran out of donuts which i get and the dude provided great service with a smile.

Very rude service & over priced Donuts… won’t come back here.. The donuts are standard nothing special but not bad either. It’s the service we definitely did not appreciate..

AVOID! Dishonest, rude woman selling stale items. Was charged $17 for 3 sprinkle doughnuts. Refused to provide a receipt until I asked 3 times. Sure enough, I was overcharged for items I did not purchase. When I asked for an explanation, the rude woman yelled at me in front of my 6 year old. It was clear she is scamming customers and has no intention to stop. My daughter threw away her stale doughnut. Sad morning. This place has sadly gone downhill with new owners who have no morals or decency.
This is on me. Last Sunday, October 2, I ordered 2 dozen donuts and a dozen donut holes. The bill came to $48. I thought that was awfully high and when I checked the receipt later I was charged $21 for open retail and muffins at $2.50 each. I will never go back.
