Good Town Doughnuts
About This Spot
Good Town Doughnuts unfolds like a quiet celebration of sweet moments tucked into the lively rhythm of Costa Mesa’s Bristol Street. Stepping inside, you’re greeted by an inviting space where vibrant artwork and warm lighting blend effortlessly with the hum of friendly conversation and the subtle scent of freshly baked treats. It’s a place that slows down the day just enough to savor small joys without ever feeling rushed or overly polished.
The atmosphere carries a relaxed, neighborhood charm where genuine warmth is woven into every detail—from the casual clatter of coffee cups to the occasional burst of laughter shared over a glaze-topped delight. It’s that rare kind of spot where baristas know your name but never hurry, and the pace invites you to linger awhile, maybe with a book or good company.
At Good Town Doughnuts, the experience extends beyond just the doughnuts themselves. They offer an artful range of options that surprise and satisfy diverse tastes, including a thoughtful selection of vegan and gluten-free treats that rival their classic favorites in both flavor and texture. The doughnuts have a light, tender crumb, crafted to strike a delicate balance—sweet without overwhelming, rich without heaviness. Flavors shift with the seasons and imagination, from matcha and s’mores to tangy berry and warming cinnamon rolls, each bite revealing layers of comfort and creativity.
What sets Good Town apart is not only the deliberate attention to ingredients but the sense that every item carries a story. The plant-based offerings stand out as an inviting choice for those seeking familiar coziness without compromise, while the occasional savory note, like avocado toast or smoked salmon, adds a quiet, unexpected counterpoint to the sweet lineup.
More than just a destination for a morning pick-me-up, Good Town Doughnuts feels like a thoughtful pause in the day—a place to connect with the simple pleasure of well-crafted doughnuts and drinks that reflect the hands and hearts behind them. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, the casual, creative spirit at Good Town invites you to find a moment of comfort and discovery in every visit.

This is by far my favorite donut place, we live in San Diego and anytime we’re within a 20 minute radius of Good Town Doughnuts we always stop by. It’s not often I’m a repeat customer cause there are so many places out there to try but I’ve been here 5 times and it’s always just as good as I remember. Their fruit icings are tart and just pop, their dough is light and soft and the selection of flavors is huge. Not to mention the people that own this shop and their employees are SO sweet and kind, I love supporting their business. Highly recommend you won’t regret it, the only thing I wish was they had a location in SD too!

Best doughnuts I’ve ever had. They’re substantial - yet light and fluffy. Sweet, but not too sweet. So many plant based options too - which is awesome! We’ve always had amazing service here, which is getting harder to find these days. Thank you for caring about what you do!

The whole atmosphere and décor setting really makes the place feel fun and welcoming with different artwork, signage, and furniture. Not sure if you’ve tried designer donuts before if not stop by they have tons of options and varieties that have real flavors and quality. Don’t worry if you need them to be vegan they have a bunch to pick from as well. My favorite is the 6 minis or the 3 berry donut.

Wow. This is a hidden gem. Donuts are awesome. When I bit into the Ginger apple cider donut it taste just like a warm apple pie. It was amazing. Also the earl gray and triple chocolate donuts are amazing. The match is perfect. And don’t forget the homemade ginger soda.

Fresh, fluffy brioche donuts. Great selection to choose from. The tiramisu was incredible, with the raspberry pistachio coming in second. The seasonal Earl Grey tea was so mild I could barely taste the flavor. I highly recommend Good Town. I knocked off one star due to price. Almost $6/donut is quite steep.

Fantastic vegan donuts! The flavors were incredible and authentic! My favorite was the mango coconut, really terrific mango flavor. The donut base is yeast/fluffy, but a little more dense than your average donut. The 6 mini donut sampler is great, although I wish you could pick the flavors (they are prepacked and one has nuts sprinkled on top). Would also love if they had a website with ingredients/additional details... the store staff members were friendly but it was a bit difficult to ask about specific allergens. Half the donuts are vegan (top shelf) and half are not. The shop is in a small group of stores and shares some outdoor covered and outdoor uncovered seating options.

Good Town Donut has quickly become one of my favorite spots! The flavors are amazing — every donut I’ve tried has been delicious, but the matcha donut is truly the standout. It’s rich, balanced, and perfectly satisfying. The overall quality is excellent, and everything tastes fresh and thoughtfully made. My only drawback is the price point, which feels a little on the pricey side. Still, the flavor and quality make it worth the occasional treat. Would definitely recommend if you’re looking for a donut shop that goes beyond the basics.
