Red's Donuts
1646 Fremont Blvd, Seaside, CA
Crema's Take
“This beloved Seaside institution bakes donuts that locals swear are worth the early arrival, with customers traveling hundreds of miles to experience their distinctive creations like maple frosted custard-filled varieties. The energy is genuinely community-focused and busy from opening, though you'll want to arrive early before the best flavors sell out—the trade-off for freshness that clearly matters more here than maintaining a full display case.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. Quick-grab spot. Pastries on the menu. Opens early. Family friendly.

Very bad service 3 times in a row. We wanted to like them because the donuts are great, but I can’t support an establishment that treats you like trash every time. The majority of the customers are Hispanic which is completely normal and fine, but it is not fine to give…

The donuts here are absolutely delicious, and they sell fast, so get there as early as you can. We got a few different ones to try out (maple frosted (both custard filled and not), raspberry filled, lemon filled, buttermilk, and a sugar donut), and aside from the Buttermilk, I…
