This place has some of the best donuts!!! They are worth a try. The entrance is on the side street so make sure you park accordingly.

I've been coming here for about 25 years! Still delicious, the staff is still so friendly, and I will definitely come here for coffee and doughnuts. Chosen over the hipster coffee shops everytime.

Love it when the sweet lady says "And then" after your first pick donut. Then I say, let me get an old fashion chocolate donut. Sweet lady says "And then" LOL! it reminds me of the movie Dude, where's my car? 😆

Best glazed donuts ever. Best donuts I've ever had in life...and I eat donuts when I travel the country. Best apple fritters too! Just PERFECT.

I treat myself to this pleasant mom and pop donut shop when I'm in the area. They always give a little extra in your bag😀

The donuts, fritters, etc. are pretty big in this shop. They’re moderately priced; and, you might get a few donut holes thrown in the bag

Donuts, hot dogs, both inexpensive but quality. Proprietors are a kind, gentle older couple.

First time here and the doughnuts was Delicious the customer service was great and I will definitely be going again.

Doughnuts are excellent; not too much frosting and, very, fresh. Service is great and, friendly.

Nothing beats happy donuts. The muffins are great, and literally all the donuts. Can’t go wrong.

Favorite donut place good coffee great fresh donuts reasonable prices still friendly staff

Good donuts, pastries, EASY TO PEEL hard boiled eggs, bananas, decent coffee, and an easy to pour powdered chocolate dispenser, everyone is friendly. Large is $3.25. You get little paper rolled up with salt and pepper for your hard boiled eggs. If you're very likable, when you buy a couple of pastries, they'll toss in a donut hole or four. After multiple visits I give it a five overall for good value, good food, and especially good people.

This place is AWESOME! Just a casual no fuss donut and sandwich joint. The apple fritter is a MUST. It is gigantic, delicious and unforgettable! I got it because it looked great and was hilariously large but the taste was perfect too, hard to explain how good it was and it lasted me two days!🤝

Good quality donuts. Fresh. Great selection.(sorry no pics of inside) I was so impressed with the selection! Old fashioned chocolate is my favorite. I was hungry so I also ordered a ham and cheese croissant! Very good, made to order hot and crispy!! If you're in the area and want a donut happy donuts will make you happy!

One of my favorite donut shops in the Bay area the coffee is always fresh and the donuts always great the service is spectacular it is a family-owned business and they really care about the customers which is always a plus keep up the great work Happy donut.

this place was super clean. Good donuts also ❤️

Long time Berkeley staple. Some of the best donuts I've ever had. New blueberry jelly donut is great. Coffee is self serve. Tip for the temple!

Best donuts in the bay area. Good community helper offering opportunity for the needy to earn a good breakfast without having to loiter or solicit customers. Compassionate and kind owner.

Lovely shop with neighborhood feel. Go here if you want fantastic donuts at very reasonable prices. The lady that was working was very kind and sweet, will definitely go again.

Not much on aesthetics (the building that is), but wonderful people and service and very tasty happy donuts. I especially like that the very nice lady working the counter had her degree in donuts (Donut Philosophy, Ph.D., of course). They really know donuts 😋

Amazing donuts for a great price. The workers are super sweet and kind! Love coming here on a Saturday morning ☺️

I am happy they did not close. They still had my favorite donut and the sales person got me more. I will go back for more each week before the covid 19. It is worth it to ride my bike 17 miles each way.

Super nice service, great donuts, reasonable prices. Will be coming back soon.

Delicious donuts fresh made

Good donuts with a surprisingly broad variety of types. Also surprisingly decent coffee.

They're donuts . Actually I stop by there to pick up donuts whenever we have a meeting in the area. Freshly made, decent price and fun staff

Good doughnuts nice selection. The place could be a little cleaner but the doughnuts and service are worth it.

No frills, decent normal donut shop. I stop in a couple days a week to grab coffee and a donut after I get off the bus to head into work nearby. They usually hook it up with some extra donut holes, love this spot. From the outside and peeking in it’s not much to look at but who cares. Great donuts!! I notice a lot of people order breakfast sandwiches here but haven’t tried myself.

Happy donuts has served my family over 3 generations. It is family owned, great customer service. Above average straight forward donuts, coffee, sandwiches and assorted breakfast items.

They have a lot of stuff in the lobby. The Apple fritter was okay and good on some parts but it was burnt. I’ll give them another try. Update: I ordered more donuts and some were better than others. I prefer going to my local donut shop. However, when I’m in the area I wouldn’t mind stopping from time to time to grab a few donuts.

Very expensive but kind of worth it you'll have to go and order the donuts yourself and give your own opinion

Small, sorta clean. Donuts are huge, but you pay for them. Either way, I will go back without a doubt. Donuts are GIANT.

When you walk in, there's stuff everywhere. And I think they gave me donuts from the day before Mine was not fresh. Second time going there. Same thing Happened before I gave them a second chance sorry happy donuts will not be returning But the lady was really nice

The worst customer service. I come in for a cup of coffee and sit down to enjoy it before my day starts. Most others are coming and getting what they want and leave. After I sit down I get not so good looks from the person behind the counter. Then the old lady comes from behind the counter and opens one of two doors, the one I'm sitting right next to, to let the freezing cold air in to try and get me to leave. After I'm done with my first cup of coffee, which tastes watered down, I get up to get a refill and the old lady is quick to come from the back to charge me $2.00, I wasn't sure if I heard her correct, I asked her to repeat, because she could sense I was a little upset she was generous enough to lower the refill price to $1.00 for the refill. I have never been to a donut shop that charges for a coffee refill. I will never be back. If I feel like stopping for coffee in the morning again I'm taking my business and money down the St to rainbow donuts. Maybe ill have better luck.

First review 2019 - Wanted to love it because it’s a Happy Donuts, however I can only give this location 3 stars at best. The batter part of the donut was a dark brownish/gold color like it’d been fried in old oil for too long (think saturating grease thru the paper bag immediately) and left a film in my mouth. Employee wasn’t friendly and then tried to up sell me to buy a beverage or add more donuts to my order. Wouldn’t recommend. UPDATE- two years later and I’d only give this place 2 stars. It was honestly gross :(

I gave Happy Donuts low rating because I don't go there and I think eating sugar is not good for me but if you enjoy sugar go there. It's a personal choice.

Feeling Gross right now!. ..bought my lunch there today around 12:30...1 pm..find my self throwing Up my lungs OUT!!! Chewing hair in a Donut! I call to let them know, "owner was a dirty talk. ..he said: I didn't see a hair! He didn't prapare my lunch it was a old lady there. Of course he didn't see the hair. Got got me really upset was he didnt apologize! " hair, hair on the food : /

Don't order sandwiches here. They are over priced, small and very salty. My sandwich cost more than a straight deli breakfast sandwich for half the size. Stick to donuts please.
