    I mean I think every amazing thing about this place has already been said ! I've been coming here since I was a kid and the fluffy glazed donuts haven't changed a bit. While you can get the other donuts, you really can't come here without getting the OG glazed donut. It is just so fluffy, light, perfectly glazed, and the best start to the day. I am not a sweets girl and hate starting my day with sweets, but I will eat these donuts. Just remember it is cash only and if you pre-order you don't wait in line! Shoutout to all the workers here, always efficient service making short work of the long line that inevitably forms every morning.

    As if this place needs any more recognition, but Stan's has the best glazed donuts I have ever had. They're perfectly soft, fluffy, and not overly sweet. While the line might seem intimidating, it moves pretty quickly--around 15-20 minutes max. Even if it's longer, the wait is absolutely worth it. Stan's is a small local business with a few counter seats if you'd prefer to sit. Just a heads-up, it's a cash-only establishment, but there's an ATM inside.

    Stan's is a true Santa Clara gem. Whether you're new to the area, just visiting, or on the hunt for a great donut, Stan's classic glazed donut is unbeatable. I'm confident it could go head-to-head with any other donut out there. Don't let the long line deter you. When I visited, the line stretched out the door and along the strip mall, but it only took about 15 minutes from the time I joined the line to when I walked out with my warm box of donuts. If you're planning ahead, Stan's lets you call in your order at least 24 hours in advance, allowing you to skip the line and pick up your order hassle-free. You can also grab a seat at the counter inside the cafe. While I haven't tried dining in myself, I did see a family of four enjoying their breakfast, and they seemed more than satisfied. For those who enjoy variety, Stan's offers other donut flavors too, including seasonal buttermilk varieties. However, my personal recommendation is to stick with the classic glazed--it's a guaranteed crowd-pleaser!

    I am a donut fanatic and was so excited to try Stan's Donut Shop after my husband recommended it. I loved the diner/old-school style of the place. You have to pay with cash. The staff was very friendly and quick to fulfill our order. My only complaint is the donuts seemed a little oily. My husband said they weren't like that last time so maybe it was just a one-off. Would go back and try other fun flavors!
