Best Donuts in Shelter Island

"This isn’t neccesarily a full blown breakfast spot, but it is home to my favorite donuts in San Diego… & I worked at a donut shop for a year when I was 16 so I feel like I am a fair judge. Their donuts are INTERESTING af- the menu changes daily, but just a few examples of their flavors: strawberry jam with almond malted milk glaze, mango habanero, horchata, guava with a cream cheese drizzle, thai tea (one of my faves) & SO MANY MORE. I am drooling. Location: North Park"

"Start the day with donuts and coffee from Nomad Donuts, which will fuel you without leaving you too full for a day of action. Catch a morning surf lessons from Surfari Surf School at north Mission Beach, and enjoy some prime people-watching on the Pacific Beach Boardwalk while you catch your breath. You’ll have worked up quite an appetite, so sate it the way a local surfer would—with fish tacos from Oscars Mexican Seafood."

"Another motif you may notice as you peruse this list is the abundance of donuts. Donuts seem to be having their moment right now, but consider this a warning: nostalgic dessert trends tend to fade fast. Remember when cupcakes were big?"

"Starting at 5pm on Fridays, this cosy downtown bakery turns into a craft beer bar with 24 authentic local taps paired with a rotating top of freshly baked donuts. Satisfy midnight craving at this Instagrammable paradise with colorful Homer’s donuts and Big Poppa stuffed with pop tarts. From the drink menu, their most fancy item is definitely the Butterbeer, glazed with butterscotch and served in intriguing Harry Potter themed glasses."

Donut Bar in Downtown SD has made headlines with its amazing donuts; voted the Number 1 Donut Shop by USA Today and many more news organizations and blogs. Donut Bar has also received San Diego Magazine’s “Best of San Diego” Awards."

"Even though there’s almost always a line, it’s worth the wait. They offer unique flavors like candied pineapple and peach fritter, but the creme brûlée donut is easily the best, with an oozing custard filling and a perfectly brûléed top."

"Clearly they’re Very Good at everything they bake here since it’s a 3rd generation run bakery. Recipes and their old-fashioned baking style have been passed down for so long; which is why they’re here to stay. Of course they have the classic cookie flavors (choc chip, peanut butter, oatmeal and others), but they’re famous for their daily smiley face and surfing cookies."

"Monday – Saturday: 5:00 am – 9:00 pm Sunday: 5:00 am – 7:00 pm. Specializing in the “old style of baking”, V.G. Donut & Bakery whips up tantalizing donuts, pastries, cookies, cakes, and more daily."

"Fresh doughnuts, pastries, cookies, cakes and bread are available for pickup. Phone orders are encouraged. New temporary hours are 5 a.m."

"A photo posted by @devilsdozendonuts on Aug 28, 2016 at 11:59am PDT. Devil’s Dozen in Little Italy offers more than just the traditional Maple Bar or Chocolate Twist. Their menu includes Nutella Hazelnut, S’mores, Churro Bites, and their Tres Leches Cake which is the delicious love child of a cake and a donut; it may be a sin (get it?!?) to taste this good!"

"Billed as the ‘world’s freshest doughnuts’, Sidecar makes their doughnuts fresh every hour, and they are damn good!. The combo of dense yet light batter that they somehow make happen, and their unique flavors (they have an eggs benedict doughnut that has an actual egg inside of it!) make this our weekend regular!. Address: Del Mar Highlands Town Center, 3435 Del Mar Heights Road, San Diego, CA 92130"

"Ok, Sidecar isn’t exactly a dessert place, but trust us – it will satisfy your sweet tooth!. It’s hard to explain how good Sidecar Doughnuts are…you just have to try one. And then you’ll try three more!"

"I bought 9 boxes for all my friends for a party & it was a hit!. Sidecar donuts are just delicious & the perfect donut flavors. Nothing was out of..."

"For a complete change of scenery, Balboa Park is an unusual park right in the city center. It was actually built for one of those old-timey expositions but the city loved it so much they made it permanent. In addition to the museums, there’s also a Botanical Garden and several beautiful gardens, like this moorish styled one below."

"Balboa Park is a 1,200-acre urban green space featuring natural vegetation zones, planted gardens and walking paths. It is one of the oldest public recreational areas in the country. The park’s Spreckels Organ Pavilion is the site of free weekly concerts."

"Ly Heng Asian Restaurant features a unique mix of Vietnamese and Chinese food, which has caught the attention of a lot of people craving authentic Asian food. One of the most ordered items at this restaurant is their Phnom Penh noodles, which are served with fresh spinach, spring onions, crab sticks and braised pork chops. They also serve an amazingly healthy pork or beef soup with delicate bean sprouts."

"From the Little Italy Mercato Farmer’s Market on Saturdays to some of the state’s best craft breweries and taco joints, San Diego has great food. Spots like Tribute Pizza and Galaxy Taco are family-friendly and tasty enough to satisfy everyone. Plant-based eatery Donna Jean is delicious, a major hit for our vegetarian family."

"One of the former navy buildings at Liberty Station has been adapted for this enticing food destination. Open seven days a week, 11:00 – 19:00, the Liberty Public Market is like an urban central market, showing off the best of the region’s wine, beer, fruit, vegetables, meat, fish, pastries, prepared foods, sauces and arts and crafts. It’s a place for people who are concerned about food provenance to do their food shop, but is also a must for on-the-spot dining, with a dash of pop-up eateries and stands."

"Guests go to Liberty Public Market for meals, drinks, and pop-up dinners, as well as to buy fresh produce, fish, art, crafts, sundries and pastries. It’s open every day from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m., though some individual vendors may have different hours."

"The city's former Naval Training Center is now home to more than 30 vendors so even the pickiest of diners will be pleased. Options include...Read More"
