Marinas beat donut spot and some say in both salinas and monterey.
Donuts are alright on my opinion. The distinction i believe ia that they are not dense but nice and fluffy. Not to sugary either. The selection ia limited though. What is not limited is their selection of fine pick-me-ups. Great mochas and coffee.
Prices are reasonable. Limited seating. Mostly always a line during the mornings. Staff is some what getting pushed around by this one philipino lady. Might be the boss.
Last time i came it was cash only so just in case bring cash with ya.
What i do suggeat and love about this place ia their bagels. Plenty and i mean plenty of cream cheese on my cream cheese and ham sandwhich last time i ordered one.
So if your ever a drive or a stroll near marina, and your belly is rumbling listen to it and stop by Marina...

For example this morning the line was out the door and they had 2 people working the front. I don't mind waiting a little bit but it shouldn't take 25-30 min to get a bagel. Speaking of which, my #5 roast beef bagel had two small slices of beef. I couldn't even taste the meat, it was all bread. They use to load up the meat. I have noticed them going cheap over my last few trips. My apple fritter has way less apples in it too. I will give this place a few more tries before I go to the place across the street. Get it together...
Read moreI have been coming to this place for ten years and have never been disappointed with the quality of the food. The bagels are delicious and the cream cheese selection is vast, flavorful, and equal parts delightfully creamy and fluffy. You will never find a more robust strawberry cream cheese. The donuts are one of the best parts of the experience, and the donut holes are the best, though on weekends they run out early! I would highly recommend their peach and cream cheese bagel, it’s my favorite thing there. Over the years, I have noticed the efficiency and friendliness of the staff start to decline slightly but the food is so good it makes up for any deficiency...
