Surfside Donuts and Coffee 603 Dolliver Street, Pismo Beach, CA 93449

"This review is based off the last three or four experiences: I remember this place being halfway decent around the time at first opened, all the hype was legit and was hard to find a complaint. Fortunately, it seems that time has not been friendly to this business as the donuts you find inside are mediocre at best and they lean a little too hard on the trendy aspect for their "unique" items. Most of, if not all of the staff seems to be irritated with customer presence; or would simply rather be anywhere but their job. Cannot say I recommend this place any longer unless they have a staff change or something, at least then I'd have the pleasure of having a few smiling interactions when I pick up my mediocre donut."

"This is a regular stop for us when we visit Pismo! It is not your average donut shop, aside from the very friendly and engaging staff it’s truly an experience. From their unique flavors, to the modern feels, and their family friendly atmosphere I would definitely recommend stopping at Surfside for donuts, coffee, or just a unique experience!"

"We went an hour before they closed (so 10am) and they only really had 2 or 3 flavors left. Aside from lack of selection- the donuts were really good. They are fluffy / airy with the right amount of chew. Toppings and Flavors were great as well. I got chocolate cheesecake, and my husband tried coconut custard. I wish we could have tried more than that, but that just means we'll have to go back. We took ours to go because seating area was packed. Parking lot outside with free marked customer spots."

"We decided to stop by on a Monday morning and boy was that a treat! Any donut you get will be delicious. I highly recommend the French toast, maple bacon and vanilla bean donuts. We also ordered the Boston creme donut, love a custard filled surprise. The vanilla Chai tea was the perfect choice that went great with the French toast donut. I recommend stopping by earlier than later, they will run out of their popular donuts."
