Dynamite Donuts - Hercules, California

Friendly staff. Wonderful service. Ambience is casual with seating for 2 or at the counter. Lots of wonderful donut options from mochi, to vegan, to the OG classics, and everything else in between. Donuts range from $2.25 to $3.50 or 1/2 dozen or dozen pricing. There are lots of variety to choose from and they are both visually and tastefully appealing. In addition, coffee type drinks are also available.
A great spot for your sweet fix.

Wonderful staff and beautifully crafted fresh donuts. Walked in at 6am and all were coming out of the ovens. Love the donut shop name’s reference to Hercules origins! Thank You Linda & DD Team!

Outstanding donut shop a lot of donut shops I’ve been to don’t merit a review. You must know it’s very good if you see that the local law-enforcement frequent the place . What a selection of donuts plus they make espresso drinks and I believe they have breakfast sandwiches too..

These are the best donuts I've had in the Pinole/El sobrante/Hercules area. I ordered a chocolate bar which they were able to fill with custard. It was slightly expensive at $3.50 but they didn't cheap out with the filling, plus the donut was very good; it tasted like it had just been made. They also threw in 3 other donuts while only charging me for 1. I've been to other donut places in the area, and all of them are similarly priced, or more expensive, and have pretty terrible donuts. I will definitely return here and recommend this as the top donut shop in the area.

Our visit to this donut shop left us pleasantly surprised by its inviting ambiance and delectable selection of treats. Despite the morning rush, we received prompt service, allowing us to indulge in our cravings without delay.

While enjoying the array of donuts, I couldn't help but appreciate the diverse textures and flavors offered. From chewy to soft and moist, and even those with a slight cake-like consistency, each bite was a delightful experience for the palate.

Although the quality of the donuts surpassed our expectations, we did notice that the pricing was slightly higher compared to other establishments. However, we found it comparable to popular coffee chains like Starbucks.

During our visit, I did experience a minor concern regarding my phone's Bluetooth being activated, which led to some unusual behavior. While I may have been overly cautious, it's essential to remain vigilant about cybersecurity in today's digital age.

Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our experience at this donut shop and would recommend it as a charming spot to indulge in a few treats and a cup of coffee. Despite the slightly higher prices, the quality and variety of donuts make it a worthwhile stop for any donut enthusiast.

I am not used to writing reviews, however I could not stay silent on this one. Initially I planned to stop by the gas station and get some snacks, but then I saw this donut shop and I was like “Why not.” So I went there and honestly was not expecting anything special. So I went and ordered one raspberry donut and iced americano. First of all the coffee was FANTASTIC. I am a coffee lover and live in LA area, I have been in a lot of nice coffee shops and I can say coffee here was just perfect. Then I grabbed my bag with donut. I opened it and there were 2 donuts even though I ordered 1. I told the barista that I didn’t order 2 donuts and I don’t even need that much, but this guy was very nice and polite, he was like “It’s alright, enjoy it.” by the way he was skinny, tall with curly hair. The very first bite of the raspberry donut shocked me. It was absolutely delicious. Highly recommend. So I couldn’t resist and ate the 2 donut as well 😄. And again was not expecting that at all at first. From now on whenever I come to this area I know where to go for sure. Thank you guys for this wonderful experience.

The donuts here are so good. Probably the best in the area id have to say. We went in about 5 pm on a thursday, glad it is still open til 7 pm. Parking was right in front of the store, there are a lot of parking spaces in this community. We were greeted with a smile and the service was quick. We got the lime donuts, coconut topped, pistachio, sugared and glazed. Amazing selection here and it tastes so goooddd. It was still warm when we got home. We will definitely be back for more and probably sit down and eat to feel the ambiance inside. Really happy that this is just around the corner and surprised that it took us this long to try it out.

Come grab a donut here if you are around.
