So good she sold out of all the donuts when we went. Likely if you go there the owner will learn your name. :)

I loved my cinnamon donut; it was fresh and not greasy! Coffee was hot and fresh. Definitely recommend.

Best donuts in town. I personally have worked for this family and got very attached. The donuts are freshly made every day.

Solid donut shop with freshly squeezed juice! The buttermilk old fashioned donut was a tad sweet, but overall good.

Love this place! They just started serving Cronuts and they're delicious! Donuts ate great and they have a great selection of coffee!

In town on business and stopped in for breakfast. Great food and great service. Staff is kind and friendly. If I lived close by I’d be here a lot.

Great donuts and great friendly local owners. Much better quality and service than Dunkin chain down the road.

Best donuts in Santa Barbara. They are so friendly and I always visit this place when we stay in Santa Barbara.

My first spudnuts and I thoroughly enjoyed. Outdoor seating, good selection, and they also do boba.

Lovely little bakery. Very friendly environment. Fresh pastries. Definitely would recommend going.

Come here as often as I can, these bagels are crispy and chewy but loaded with flavor! Coffee is really good as well, serve yourself. Come check it out, you won't be disappointed!

There are a few Spudnuts, but this one, in particular, is especially tasty. It's on upper State. Their jelly donuts are really good. There is something special about their jelly. If you ask for one, they will take the donut and personally fill it with their jelly. I also love their apple fritters. So crunchy and yummy!

Travelling down California and this is the best bagel and donut I’ve had. The staff are super friendly and nice also. Loved it here!

Donuts are awesome and fresh, the sandwiches are BOMB, their Thai tea boba is the best in town (other places its too milky and not strong enough, they know how to do it right here) and INCREDBLE service. I came for the donuts and thai tea and stayed for Joy and her wonderful family. I always left with a big smile and an even bigger turkey bagel sandwich. I just moved out of town and miss this place so dearly, it was a common stop for my friends and I. Joy, if you're reading this, I'm sending lots of love!

fantastic joint for a breakfast stop. run by joy and her lovely family. breakfast bagel with jalepeno and a cinnamon bun was just what we needed. will be back!

Spudnuts has excellent food! Their donuts are fresh and tasty, and they have the best croissant sandwiches I have ever had in my life! Turkey, roast beef, and tuna. I highly recommend this coffee shop!

Great service and food! Shared that I was on a bike trip from San Francisco with friends and she gifted my fiends and me some doughnuts :——) To her! My friends said they love you and we shared them together with joy ;——p many thanks

Discovered this place while in Santa Barbara. I had an Apple Fritter & Coffee for Breakfast. Staff was friendly & my Fritter was the Best ever. People - you just HAVE to come in & check this place out !

I got a great jalapeño cream cheese bagel and my foreign credit card wouldn’t work—the owner graciously told me to pay her the next time I returned. I was just as embarrassed as I was moved by her good-hearted trust. Will definitely return and not just out of obligation. ♥️

Super friendly staff!! Couldn't decide and ordered 6 delicious looking donuts and a croissant. The jelly filled powder did not disappoint!! And the croissant was buttery and flakey!!! She threw in some free donut holes in my box. Will definitely be back when in area

Visiting from out of town and were craving some bagels - stumbled upon this place online and ventured to find it. Donuts and bagels are an absolute 10! Great pre-hike breakfast. Highly recommend!

Great service at here!!! Very friendly and accommodating!! Food is great and homemade. Juice is freshly juiced right when you order! Check them out. See khan for a great experience.

This place has excellent doughnuts! We've been twice now and the staff is super friendly. They have all the basic donuts that most people like and some others that I have yet to try. The doughnuts are fresh and exactly what I want when I have a craving!

Love this place. Delicious baked goods, coffee, friendly service, and best prices. Pastries are large and fresh unlike what’s available at nearby big-bucks. Favorite place to stop early mornings before a long commute.

So good and so friendly. Breakfast croissants are delicious

This is the only Spudnuts in SB that we like (we’ve been to all of them). Always the freshest, always the best selection, and most importantly run by an amazing, friendly family. We don’t eat donuts often, but when we do, we only go to Joy’s Spudnuts.

Very nice service and turkey cheese toast

Best Donut and Cinnamon Roll I ever had in my life. Totally awesome.

Cute, affordable shop run by the sweetest old lady. Tasty donuts and breakfast sandwiches, and the prices are the best in the city.

Great experience. Went out of their way to make it awesome

This was an absolutely amazing experience. Open early and service with a smile, the owners are so warm and inviting! The food is the perfect compliment as the variety of options and delicious combinations left this traveler happy and ready for the day!

A critical lifeline for early morning eats and fresh bagels donuts and pastries in the upper state area. Bonus: they have amazing service. Dunkin? Gone. Jacks Bagels? Gone. Chick fil a? Closed early AM & Sunday. Jack in the box? not 24hr anymore and drive thru only. May spudnuts live on forever!

Best doughnuts and bagels in town. I have tried every shop from Santa Barbra to santa maria and this one stands out. They also have the most friendliest customer service. I literally will not eat no other doughnut or bagel from some where else. 👍👍👍 there is also a spudnuts on Carrillo st. But i prefer the spudnuts on upper state st. Across Denny's

Best cheese and jalapeño bagel I ever had!!! They put cream cheese on it and warmed it. Oh man. I was talking to myself in the car afterwards saying “Man, that’s the best bagel I ever had!” The donuts are good too! I got 6 of them.

Dee-licious donuts and fare, good hot coffee, and service with a smile! Oh, they open at 5am, can't be that! 😄

This is the best donut shop in the world I know because I’m from San Francisco and we have a lot of stupid doughnut places there with this donut places super great I just had the best chocolate croissant ever in my life and my friend had a maple Croh Dough and I think that’s going to be the best one and she’s really fussy! Khan is the awesome owner!!

The older lady was very nice, great customer service. Good outdoor seating. It was 12:30pm and the don Parenting or HAP is a serious form of child maltreatment and the donuts tasted fresh..

This Spudnets is the BEST. I don't know quite how they do things a little better than the rest but there is something about the way they prepare and toast their bagels in particular. Perfectly balance of crunchy and chewy. Kona coffee is always a must and their donuts just seem extra fresh. Staff remember their guests and are just really nice to order from. If I need a "donut shop fix" in Santa Barbara, I go here and will continue too for a long time to come.

Very warm and charming people here. Will come back everytime I visit SB. Food is great. Ordered assorted bagels, Tuna sandwich and Roast beef sandwich 🥪 yummm. Joy brings joy 😊 a pleasure to meet you.

The donuts here were unreal. Super nice owners and crazy selection of donuts. I'm a big cream filled guy and they delivered. It was so creamy. Highly recommend!

Donuts 🍩 are spectacular fresh jalapeño bagel so delicious.

The croissant breakfast sandwich is so good, the donuts are too. The staff is very friendly, you can tell it’s a family run business, it’s great.

Great donuts and lovely lady running the place.

Great cinnamon roll, good breakfast sandwich, the donuts are really really good, coffee as well.. nice staff as well! We were road tripping from yosemite to LA.. worth the stop!

If you find yourself in the vicinity or anywhere in Santa Barbara, I highly recommend visiting this establishment. The cuisine is truly exceptional and delectable, and the fresh fruit juice is a noteworthy feature of their offerings. The staff provides outstanding service with a warm and welcoming demeanor.

The donuts are so freaking amazing. Arguably the best I’ve ever had, and Ive had a lot. Really enjoyed the breakfast sandwich as well. Our interaction with Joy (one of the folks behind the counter) was just stellar. She is definitely a joy! :) highly recommend this awesome spot!!!!

Best boba in town!

I got a cheese bagel with cream cheese and it was so delicious, and tasted fresh. We also got a bacon egg and cheese jalapeño bagel which was great. The half carrot half orange was so fresh!! Would definitely come back!

Amazing bagels, donuts & coffee! Was a quick pit stop on a road trip and definitely worth the trip. A family owned business & the owners are incredibly kind and helpful. Stop by whenever you’re in town :) Ps love the jalapeño bagel sandwich!!

Was looking for a sesame bagel, found a delicious one here - and got a free sprinkle donut to boot. Highly recommended.

Amazing place. Really great staff and awesome food!!

Best donuts in town. Ellers on milpas is a close second

I love going here for breakfast , the donuts are great. They have so many options like breakfast bagels, sandwiches, boba smoothies, coffee, croissants and more . The staff are very nice and it’s locally owned. I recommend the strawberry banana boba, glazed donut, and plain bagel with cream cheese 🍩🥯

Very friendly Lady. The Donuts were great and the Cinnamon Puff Pastry was just perfect. Will come again

We were visiting from Montana and wanted to find a great donut shop and we did!!! Spudnuts had a huge selection of yummy donuts! We also had breakfast sandwiches that were awesome! The fresh juice was so good and so was the coffee! Best of all though was the customer service! The staff was so positive - it made our day!!!

Travelled from San Francisco down to L.A . And honestly this was thee best breakfast spot along the way the doughnuts were to die for. The atmosphere was just perfect for that time of the morning . There fresh OJ incomparable. Unbelievable.

Delicious fresh food and great service!! Thank you for delivering great service every time.

They have great bagel and croissant sandwiches, their baked goods are fluffy very light. Is the only place I have seeing with strawberry glaze donuts. They have great boba drinks and fresh juices made when ordered. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Their customer service makes you feel at home. It is great for students, for taking dozens to works. Ps: they have different types of cream cheese flavors.

Amazing bagels, donuts and boba. I've been going for the past 6 years and have not found a better place! Joy and her family have so much hospitality. Go support local instead of a Dunkin - you won't be disappointed!

Delicious. My girlfriend and I stopped in for a coffee and a bagel, sort of a ritual almost every morning on our road trip. Spudnuts was the best thus far. Coffee was hot and on point, bagels where delectable. Would recommend to anyone visiting Santa Barbara

Such a great little place! Fantastic donuts, solid breakfast sandwiches, and good coffee. Can't ask for much more.

I was welcomed with smiles and kindness and so very friendly. The vast selection was SO fresh and well presented it made it hard to choose. So I got a BIG box and a breakfast croissant. Amazing fresh flavor and such nice people. We will be back again and again and again.

Today is our last day in Santa Barbara after living here for two years. This location Spudnuts has been our favorite breakfast place. We love ordering the Ham, Egg, and Cheese breakfast sandwich on a Jalapeño and Cheddar Bagel. For Donuts we love to order the Chocolate with M&M’s and a Plain Glazed Donut. The owner, Joy is always such a pleasure to see and talk to as well as Rodolfo, one of our favorite employees! We will miss this Donut Shop and the love & kindness they shared with us. The shop should be called Joy’s Donuts because it truly does bring joy to the community. 🍩💘Peace, Love, & Donuts! 😎

My family and I spent three weeks in Santa Barbara and our favorite place for breakfast was here! Every morning it was a pleasure to be greeted so kindly. All of the staff were kind and always smiling. The bagels were our favorite ❤️ our last day they sent us off with a box of doughnuts as a gift, it was such a surprise and so sweet of them. We wish we could take Spudnuts back to France with us! We will miss them.

The food and staff here are amazing, my wife and I were passing through Santa Barbara on a road trip and we loved this place. I reccomend trying the jalapeño cheddar bagels

Bagel sandwiches were tasty! They had a huge selection of pastries too. Definitely a solid spot to grab a morning breakfast sammy, donut, and coffee.

Yep, this is where you get your breakfast and lunch for miles around. Don't let the humble appearance fool you, this is quality stuff. With lovely staff helping you with a big smile and honest courtesy. Glad I found this gem! Had an egg, bacon and cheese on a bagel and couldn't have been happier with it.

Wonderful place, best bagel I've ever eaten, very good service and excellent quality products, I loved it, I'll always come back!

Now that's what a donut is supposed to taste like! Light, fluffy, subtly sweet, perfect. Staff is exuberant, friendly, and attentive. A variety of brewed coffee to choose from. I love it.

Great experience! DELICIOUS donuts, friendly service, many options including sandwiches, juice, and slushies! 😊

Best Bakery in Santa Barbara. Donuts remind me of Krispy Kreme but better. Imagine a Krispy Kreme donut without the grease...they melt in your mouth. If I had to leave Santa Barbara I would dream about this Donut Shop everyday until my return. I've traveled the USA and I've never had the perfect donut until I found Joy and Mama's place. I think you guys should change your name because I've been to the other Spudnuts and IT IS DEFINITELY INEXPLICABLY NOT THE SAME!!!! So don't go wasting your time and money anywhere else in Santa Barbara. THE PERFECT DONUT IS WAITING FOR YOU RIGHT HERE!!!

I lived in Santa Barbara years ago and this was my favorite spot for my morning coffee and bagel. The owner literally is the sweetest lady and I haven’t seen her for like 5 years, but I still think about how welcoming she was to me. I love chive cream cheese and she literally went out of her way to get fresh chives for me. At the time, I was going through a rough patch and this little donut shop felt like a safe haven. Being able to stop here for ten minutes every morning, grab coffee and talk to the owner while she made my food with love was very comforting. The bagels are crisp on the outside and chewy on the inside and donuts are delicious too. Glad to see your business is still thriving! Hope you and your family are well.

Cute family run bagel and donut shop. Got a BEC jalepeno cheddar bagel and it was out of this world. Donuts were super fresh and lots of flavors to choose from.

Sweetest family, friendly, helpful and fast. Insanely fluffy and delicious bagels and donuts. Worth a trip.

Great donuts and great service. They ran out of powdered donuts so the lady made me one, my niece was very happy.

If you want delicious donuts made with love, most definitely come here. The owner is a phenomenal lady and she is always a blast to come see, the energy here is unmatched and the food is always fresh and delicious. If I could give this place more then 5 stars I'd give it infinity.

Spudnuts Donuts is an absolute gem. Fresh, fluffy, and perfectly made donuts that you can taste the quality in with every bite. The staff is friendly, welcoming, and makes the whole experience even better. Whether you’re grabbing a quick treat or bringing donuts for a group, this place never disappoints. Highly recommend stopping by—you’ll be glad you did.

Ok so opens at 5am ..awesome... the freshest,warmest,softest,sticky(in a good way) and the most friendly staff (at 5am you know how hard that is) also they have bagels breakfast sandwiches.. outside little tables parking can be hard sometimes but still all around yes to stopping by again

Family own business.. Always smiling, happy. The donuts are tasty too. It's a great day to start your morning.

Delicious breakfast bagel sandwiches with a great variety of yummy donuts. Friendly staff that was very helpful as well

I tried the breakfast bagel and I thought the hype might be better than the actual food. Service was great and quick even with a busy place at 6am in the morning.

Nice people, very nice donuts and bagels. But the bagels are not boiled, only steamed.

When you step inside, it may look like an old-school bakery, but don’t be deceived — the bagels are outstanding. The staff are so warm and attentive that you’ll find yourself wanting to come back every single day

Good bagels and donuts. Turkey croissant has A LOT of turkey in it they don’t skimp. Got the veggie egg bagel sandwich which was also really good

Nice local spot. Good variety of donuts and pastries. Their breakfast sandwiches are good as well.

Apple fritter - too much cinnamon. Donut hole had nice chew

This donut shop has delicious donuts and wonderful service. BUT, during my last visit I ordered a bagel that was flat and prepared incorrectly. The dough was raw and in a baker's opinion, the dough was not fermented long enough and/or the incorrect mixing technique was used - possibly just a bad batch because this is a first. Just be aware of raw bagels on the shelf. Although, never disappointed with their sweet treats!!

Seemed a little pricey. A breakfast sandwich and one regular donut came out to $15. The sandwich was not seasoned so it was kinda bland.

I asked if the doughnuts were fresh, day of. She said yes. I bought two dozen for my boys birthday to give to their baseball team. They were old doughnuts. I will never go back.

The new Hispanic male that usually works in the morning always charges a different price for donuts by the dozen. We get (or used too) the same dozen donuts 2-3x a week. The last four trips the price is always different from the other. I mentioned that to him several times and could not give me an answer as to why? The Best way to resolve this, we now go to Ellers down the street where the prices are always the same and a much better donuts.
