Donut Panic

They're permanently closed and didn't care enough to update that on Google, so I just waisted my time coming here lmao

I want to love this place, especially for the variety and vegan options but unfortunately donuts are stale and dry. The sprinkled ones have about a quarter of the sprinkles a donut should have.

Honestly I have no idea how this place has a 4 star rating . I just bought one donut , and spit it out after the first bite . I don’t remember this place being so bad , but just a horrendous donut.

There was a hair resting on top of one the donuts and it was partially covered by the frosting. When I confronted the cashier, he immediately began cursing at me and accused me of planting the hair. The hair is much longer then my own hair and it was partially frosted, it was not mine. He refused to issue a refund or even replace the donuts (not that I wanted any at that point). Would not recommend

So I just tried this place I was hesitant at first because some vegan doughnuts really suck honestly… but this place was delicious I have the Bavarian cream filled vegan doughnuts and they were so good! I loved the churro one the best! I definitely recommend

I really want to love Donut Panic more. It's a family operation and perfectly nails the casual hangout vibe I've wanted to see in bars and eateries across the country. They have a couch & armchair with a coffee table full of board games (check their facebook page for game night schedules), as well as traditional small tables. Father & daughter both recognize regulars and chat with them about all sorts of topics, which is phenomenal. I also appreciate that they have vegan donuts alongside traditional ones and non-dairy options for coffee mix-ins. However, I haven't been wowed by the donut texture. I've tried both vegan and regular at different times of day, and while eating a lackluster donut is still no misery, they've been a bit of a letdown. I will probably keep snagging a donut when I pop over to PurpleMint next door or get my car serviced down the street, but wouldn't go out of my way unless it's for the community at one of their evening events.

This review pains me to write, because I really wanted it to be better. I just want someone to buy this place and takeover because poor Baba needs a break and the products really tell it. I came here to try the vegan donuts and it's a small, unassuming shop in a strip mall. The man was behind the counter waiting for customers and quickly came to attention. I ordered a dozen variety of donuts, and he named them off as he put them in the bag. He did mention some were fresher than the others but I didn't realize what this meant. I understood when I got home. The idea behind some of the donuts was great, there was a lavender frosted donut, a Homer Simpson donut, Thai tea, and other various flavors. The icing was pretty much the only edible part, the donuts themselves were hard, possibly stale, and just overall inedible. I even had an apple fritter which lacked flavor and almost anything that made it an apple fritter. I was seriously disappointed and it breaks my heart because it seems like a family business and they put work into their products, it just seems maybe sales aren't good enough or they don't turnover as quickly as they hope. I won't go back but again I plea with someone to take over and fulfill the potential this place has.

Their donuts here are for vegan and non-vegans! Visited 2 June, National Donut Day, and received a free donut! We only had their vegan varieties but found them to be tasty, with a wide variety of flavors. The Apple Fritter was a bit crispy and seemed overcooked, so that may have just been that batch. The others were also quite tasty but a little on the chewy side. Very helpful and friendly proprietor who went through all the available varieties. This shop is very close to other restaurants that offer a wide variety of vegan dishes. I encourage you to try Donut Panic and taste for yourself.

Love their vegan donuts! So delicious and perfectly soft! Sometimes they have "day old" donuts for 1/2 which is awesome! I no longer live in SD, so I can't wait to visit!

Best donut I’ve ever had!! So delicious. Highly recommend
