Bob's on Baker Street — Restaurant in San Francisco

I live dangerously near to this donut shop. DANGEROUSLY near.

I like Krispy Kreme, but Bob's donuts are the chewy, yeasty donuts of my childhood, and I love them. They always offer a great selection of delicious flavors are regularly introduce new ones. We're huge fans of the filled mango, pineapple, and strawberry lemonade ones in particular! Their pastries are also really good, and super-filling - the apple fritters are yum! but enough for two meals.

Throughout the pandemic, this donut shop has seemingly single-handedly kept the spirits of the neighborhood high. Each donut they sell is a little life preserver of happiness for the neighbors I watch patiently lining up in the mornings the requisite six feet apart, helpfully marked out on the pavement, to enter the store one-by-one. Get there early on Sundays if you're planning on getting a box for church because you won't be the only one. They've even instituted a bar code you can scan to order ahead so that you can get in and out quickly. During the rush periods, you'll be grateful for it.

Despite the crowds, the staff is friendly and cheerful, so treat them well! Together, we'll get through these challenging times, one...

WITHOUT A DOUBT IN MY MIND OR BELLY, BOBS DONUTS ARE THE BEST DONUTS IN SAN FRANCISCO AND QUITE POSSIBLY ALL OF CALIFORNIA. I walk the dogs of a friend near the baker st Bob's and stop in frequently, as a small luxury on a fixed income with volunteer gigs, this donut is worth putting change aside for daily. Imagine my surprise and absolute elation as the elevator lobbydoors opened and sitting on a folding table in subsidized housing in the tenderloin where it truly looks as if there isn't any hope left , in a tiny patch of golden sunlight sat a donation for the residents of the SRO. Large boxes of Bob's. They were still warm and made a really darky everyday experience a whole lot Lighter. Thank you Bob's For knowing your product And it's influence in the community. The donuts themselves are clearly made with heart and the variety is plentiful. I promise on my next in store visit I will give you my top 5. And then I will jog the top 5 off cuz it takes 20 to...

I was really excited to find a local donut shop with vegan options. Unfortunately, if you’re looking for good vegan donuts, this place is not it. While I think it’s great that they’re being inclusive by catering to both vegans and non-vegans, the recipes for their vegan donuts either need to be improved before they sell the donuts again or they simply need to remove all the vegan options to spare someone the trip that would otherwise end in total disappointment.

The person at the register was very pleasant and patient with me when I placed my order. Customer service was great which is why I’m giving this place 2 stars and not 1. The vegan “donuts” were flavorless, bland, and grainy. I got the Apple fritter which also had an unpleasant texture. I’m disappointed as I could only bear eating one bite of the “donut” before having...
