Original Ferrell's Donuts - Santa Cruz

I drive from San José to get donuts here, I don't mind the drive knowing I get a sweet pillowy fresh donut after, hands down one of the best donuts shops in Northern California ?

The atmosphere was your typical donut shop. The lady behind the counter was awesome and she gets along with the customer

I came in last minute for some Sufganiyot for Hanukkah, and Mike (owner) saved the day and helped put together some jelly doughnuts for us. Truly a lifesaver and extremely friendly. We got another chocolate doughnut while there, absolutely delicious. Fresh and reasonably priced. We will be coming back again for all of our doughnut needs. I'm excited to try the sandwiches too!

Cute place; however, we have not had great experience with their donuts. I went there at 6:40 today but the donuts somehow did not taste fresh. They are not bad but you just expect better.

It’s an okay donut. Raised was good. Apple fritter and old fashions were dry. The service was really great and the seating was very cute.
