San Diego Bakery Roundup: Part Two

Part Two of the Bakery Roundup is here, and we want to share some of the best doughnut spots around San Diego County.

You may have noticed VG Doughnut and Bakery in Part One of our Bakery Roundup. We would be remiss if we didn’t give them another shoutout in this Doughnut Edition.

Now, onto Part Two: 

Donut Bar

There will most likely be a line out the door at the Downtown location, but their over-the-top concoctions are worth the wait. Some of the “Everyday Favorites” include the Big Poppa Tart, Maple Bacon, Creme Brûlée, and the Unicorn. Plenty of vegan options, too! 

Sidecar Doughnuts

A welcomed addition to Del Mar, they believe the only way to enjoy a doughnut is when it’s “hot and fresh”, so they fry their doughnuts in small batches all day long. There is a delicious assortment of flavors, with Butter & Salt at the top of our list. 

Rose Donuts‍

Located in Linda Vista and in business for over 25 years. You’ll find all the classics here, including twists, apple fritters, old-fashioneds, and French crullers. 

Broad Street Dough Co.

There’s no surprise that Encinitas has welcomed this New Jersey transplant, especially since their menu accommodates those with keto, gluten-free, and dairy-free diets. 

Mary’s Donuts‍

A Santee institution with additional locations in Lakeside and El Cajon (Main Street Donuts and Deli). Favorites include plate-sized “Big Donuts” for special occasions, apple fritters, and decadent maple bacon donuts.

Solomon Bagel & Doughnut Company

A North Park newcomer with regular and vegan selections. You’ll probably want to grab a dozen of their New York style bagels, while you’re at it.

Barrio Donas‍

A hybrid donut shop in Clairemont that melds together the best Mexican and American pastry flavors for a unique donut experience. Who can resist a churro donut?! Vegan options are also offered.
