Maple Leaf Donuts
6469 Almaden Expy, San Jose, CA
Crema's Take
“This beloved Almaden Valley gem opens early and closes by 2pm, making it a cherished ritual stop for locals and visitors alike who swear by their impossibly light, perfectly balanced donuts that somehow taste fresh no matter how many you indulge in. Beyond the pastries, their specialty drinks—especially the wild berry smoothie and hazelnut coffee—have genuine depth and flavor that transcends typical donut shop fare, while their friendly, smiling staff create an atmosphere that feels like visiting family rather than grabbing a quick bite.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee. Quick-grab spot. Pastries and light food on the menu. Opens early. Family friendly.

I live in Japan, but when I go visit my family, this is where I go to for donuts. Donuts taste great and are not too heavy, not too light, just perfect! Service is great as well! Really appreciate their donuts and their service.
The wild berry smoothie is amazing and doesn’t taste like a cheap ice drink. The sandwiches are also great!
Excellent service, friendly with a smile. Apple fritter was perfect with crispy edges and actual pieces of apple inside. I've tried a lot of donut shops all over the Bay Area and this one is the best.
Best donut shop in Almaden valley area Very tasty and fresh Staff were super friendly and courteous Coffee also was good with hazelnut flavor Must try if you are in the area They close at 2 pm. So go early!!
Yeah, these donuts are HEAVENLY. Can easily horde down 5 for cheap and still feel like I ate nothing. Amazing donuts, SUPER friendly staff, and overall a Great stop. Go at 8am or earlier for WARM and FRESH donuts. Typically they run out of donuts around 1/2, before their closing…
