Crema's Take
“Rose Donuts is a beloved San Diego spot where Vietnamese iced coffee pairs beautifully with freshly baked donuts and house-made croissants that locals can't stop raving about. Their sandwiches—built on buttery, flaky croissants and bagels—are satisfying breakfast winners at under $10, making this the kind of place worth joining the line for. Whether you're grabbing a quick pastry or settling in for a full breakfast, the consistent quality and genuine care in their baking keeps people coming back again and again.”

Absolutely delicious 😋 They offer a variety of sandwiches prepared on their house baked croissant, bagel, or bread. I had their croissant & bagel sandwich & it was absolutely satisfying and savory. The croissant was flaky & buttery & their bagels were soft & perfectly toasted. Their home baked donuts are also really good and their Vietnamese Iced coffee & lattes are the perfect ratio of expresso/milk. I also had a cup of their coffee, black,☕️ very smooth and delicious. I have yet to try their ice cream, although it seemed appetizing. Very friendly and quick service, even though there is usually a line out the door we get through it quickly.
Tastiest desert in town! Visited San Diego for 9 days and frequently stopped by rose's for Vietnamese Iced coffee and many donuts. The chocolate croissant was buttery, flakey and contained the most delicious chocolate morsels. For donuts we loved the glazed, maple bacon, and blueberry. Can taste the decadent flavor and these are definitely homemade with love!
I stopped by Rose Donuts and grabbed a mixed dozen, and they did not disappoint! The variety was perfect glazed, raspberry-filled, maple, and chocolate. Each donut was soft, fresh, and full of flavor. The raspberry-filled had just the right balance of tart and sweet, and the glaze was light and melt-in-your-mouth good. Definitely a great local donut spot worth checking out.
Breakfast Sandwich on Croissant, delicious donuts, and Vietnamese Ice Coffee! This place was such a great find! We wanted a quick and affordable breakfast and these sandwiches here are all under $10!! You can get it on Croissant, Bagel, or just regular toast. I recommend the croissant. Super buttery and flaky. The donuts are delicious, the blueberry cake is one of the best I've had. Vietnamese iced coffee was the best way to wash it all down!
There was a line out the door so my expectations were high. My friend and I tried 4 of the donuts; the glaze and the crumb glaze showed they could make a good standard donut. Delicious. The old fashioned and cinnamon roll were very basic; nothing special. Still worth the try.
