Holey Grail Donuts

Taro based donuts! Each donut is made to order and dipped individually by hand. Very interesting process of making them and fun names : original sin, hot single, PB cup, Hail Mary and lilikoi. You can get an assortment box from 4 pieces to a dozen. Friendly and patient service: it's not easy deciding which one to NOT get. Also got iced Hawaiian vanilla latte and and iced Hawaiian chocolate drink. One bathroom but no changing table for infants or toddlers. Lot of merchandise including coffee beans and shirts, bags, mugs, hats etc... Open air seating but our group took up the one long table (10 adults). Many more stools available. I really enjoyed the lilikoi or passion fruit donut. You can get a pack of donut holes dipped in one flavor I suppose.

I was on a mission to find some matcha while waiting for my partner to get our burger order from The Win~Dow. Unfortunately, the coffee shop next door didn’t have matcha so I needed to find something quick. I walked by the colorful storefront and noticed the Asian flavored donuts, which immediately had me looking for a drink menu. Lo and behold they had several types of matcha drinks on top of a mocha inspired drink which my partner was looking forward to. The donuts themselves are made out of Taro and made to order, so very warm and delicious! I ended up ordering a matcha with 4 donuts varying from sesame seed to passion fruit flavored. And while the price per donut may seem more than your mom and pop shop, the flavor, uniqueness, and quality of the donut really show for it. Overall, cute shop and happy I stumbled upon it!

Absolutely DELICIOUS. I got waffles and sausage for breakfast a little too sweet for me, but it was absolutely delicious. We got a variety of donuts, including the most popular ones and everything was fresh and tasted magnificent. The coffee was good and the presentation of the box and how everything was put together was very classy. I love this place check out the photos, they say everything.

Great little donut shop. I got the tasting menu and a latte. I like that they make the donuts fresh to order so they come out hot every time. Out of the four on the tasting menu, the passion fruit was my favorite. I love anything passion fruit and this one had a nice flavor combo. The donuts are vegan, but if they hadn’t mentioned it I wouldn’t have known. The texture and flavor were close to what I’m used to, maybe even a little crispier in a good way. There’s a small seating area outside where you can hang out. Definitely worth a stop if you’re nearby.

We stumbled upon this donut shop just walking down the street and decided to give it a try. The donuts are made it fresh right in front of you and were fantastic!

Made to order doughnut with a variety of interesting flavor to choose from. The doughnut was dense and slightly crunchy if eaten within 10 mins. If taken to go the crunchy texture will be lost. So eat half at the store and save the other half to go...

One of the best donuts and coffee’s I’ve ever had. Unfortunately, for $7, you coffee size is a little on the small size but definitely worth every penny, except the unexplainable “service fee” 😝. I would definitely return!

Stumbled upon this donut shop while walking down the street and wanted to try it out after hearing good things about it. Ordered one featured donut and one regular donut to try out! Price point was on the higher side, however understandable that it’s made to order and they use premium ingredients. It took quite a while to get our 2 donuts (about 15 minutes) but there was a large group before us so we figured there would be a bit of a wait. The donuts’ flavours were so delicate, nicely balanced and not too overwhelming sweet! Was pleasantly surprised that they were delicious and you could taste the flavour in each bite. Definitely pairs nicely with a coffee, will try that out next time!

Holey Grail took over one of my favorite spot on 2nd street. Used to be our favorite local breakfast/ brunch place when I was living in Naples back in the days. I first tried their donuts at the taste of the nation event for No Kid Hungry and I fell in love with their hot Taro donuts! Wished they kept the Strawberry on the menu! There's a small parking lot in the back. Park at your own risk.

Funny enough, I'd actually had these donuts once before, straight from the source: not long before they opened an offshoot in Belmont Shore, we happened to be staying for a couple days in Honolulu en route to the big island on vacation, at a hotel with a Holey Grail truck right in its shadow, so I already knew they were great. I sometimes make jokes about various faraway places I'd rather visit than much closer ones, like how I'd rather fly to Vegas than have to drive to Santa Monica, but even I can agree that Belmont Shore is a heck of a lot easier to get to than Honolulu, so it was pretty neat when they opened a one in Long Beach soon after. Even neater when I won a free 4-donut "sampler" box from something or another a couple months ago, so I could confirm that they are in fact just as good as the ones in Honolulu were. I would've liked to have gotten to pick the flavors (I didn't care for the two tropical-glazed ones as much as the other two - tropical ones are quite sweet, and the miso honey is sooooo good), but obviously I wasn't going to complain, given the price free. (Though I did buy one extra one for $4.50 for immediate consumption, since the flavors in the box were pre-picked-out, and I really wanted to pair a traditional chocolate donut with their also just as good mocha. Also so I could tip them.) Anyway, as I expected, it was indeed just as good as I remembered from the one in Honolulu, both the donuts and the coffee drink. Paired the double chocolate donut fresh out of the fryer with a mocha: wonderful combo, totally worth the price. (Though also just as a remembered, the melted chocolate is delicious, but also a bit... unwieldy.) Took the box home, shared a couple with my wife last night and the other couple this morning: still great. Would probably have been even better if I'd eaten them all right of the fryer, but... I wouldn't have enjoyed it nearly as much (I was still full from lunch.)

Family and Office Favorite. Although theses donuts are made to order, their service is very fast! I love that their intentions are set on being sustaining in their ingredients and supplies. Their dough is taro based and thoughtfully sourced. Get their signature glaze, its soo delicious. it is located on 2nd st right next to Phils coffee. parking therefore is tricky and the street becomes quite busy. -1start because one time our holes were over cooked and too hard :)

It was my first time here and these are the best donuts I've ever had! Service was super fast and the donuts were so fresh! It's a very cute spot to grab coffee and eat donuts!

I first had holey grail donuts at the food bowl event in La and it was one of the best hits from my food memory. I was so happy when I randomly found it here in Long Beach. They make their donuts fresh to order! I love how it's Hawaiian made. The ingredients seem fresh not overly sweet and the donut breading is very cakey. My favorite is the lilikoi. I love how colorful the presentation is. They have variety of drink options too like coffee and matcha. They have seating available inside very causal. Service was great.

Made fresh while you wait, absolutely warm and wonderful! First time bring my husband to Holey Grail and he was very happy with the donuts and coffee. He got his usual black drip.amd I ordered a Chai Tea Latte. For donuts, we ordered four and shared. We ordered the Original Sin (Classic), Chocolate Crunch (Classic), Wild Guava (Seasonal), and Peanut Butter Cup (Seasonal). All wete excellent! My husband's favorite waa the Wild Guava. For me, they were all too good for a favorite! Tasting Box section on the menu are their seasonal donuts. This changes monthly! I have never had one repeat yet! Service is always friendly and helpful! Each visit I am more impressed with their donuts!

Running around with two toddlers in tow, I was happy to stumble upon a donut shop. It was pretty quick when I realized-- this isn't your ordinary donut shop. Every flavor on the menu sounded amazing. I saw the prices and thought this might just be another gourmet donut shop. I was wrong. Taro based donuts with locally sourced ingredients with each donut made-to-order? What?! These were some of the most unique, flavorful, lightest donuts I have ever had with the slightly crispy exterior that was so satisfying. The vanilla donut literally tasted like vanilla beans. They were not overly sweet. They were perfectly sized. Ultimately, they were the perfect donuts that really set a high bar for donuts. It also doesn't hurt that there's great outdoor seating for people watching on 2nd Street. The packaging is also impressive. I also want to note that as I was trying to take a picture of my donut outside, a wind came and blew my donut away. That's how light it was. But no worries, it landed on my napkin so I still ate it! Highly recommend!

Super cute donut shop on second street! But what sets them apart from the res?! these donuts are made with taro and fried in coconut oil! Vegan and so delicious. Holey Grail originated from HI and brought over some delicious treats. All are made to order. What changes on each type of donut are the glazes and toppings. My first time trying and I went for the wild guava with edible flowers. When ready, I was confused looking for the wild guava in the box my sister ordered since I didn't see any with edible flowers. Inquired at the counter and the guy stated they had run out of flowers. It would be nice if I had been told beforehand... I may have ordered another flavored donut. Nevertheless, we all sat at a cool table looking outward to second street and sampled a couple of flavors.

Such amazing, fresh, melt in your mouth delicious donuts!! I absolutely love this place. Everyone who works at this location is so kind and sweet and helpful. The donuts are freshly made and so unique, delicious with tons of exciting flavors and rotating/seasonal options as well! The coffee and chai here is also so delicious. There are some seating options both outside and inside if you want to enjoy your donut and coffee at the shop while people watching on 2nd st. Absolutely love this place!!

Oh yum, super fresh made-to-order donuts in Belmont Shores. It's $18 for a box of 4 so a bit on the pricey side, but they have really unique flavors and the donuts are absolutely delicious. The packaging is also the most aesthetic I've ever seen from a donut shop. They covered every detail!

My go-to donut spot, Holey Grail makes you feel a little bit better indulging in an "unhealthy" treat. At first it does taste way different than your usual donut but you get used to it, the dough is made of taro and cacao then fried in coconut oil! Holey Grail really takes pride in their ingredients used and its mostly sourced from Hawaii! When you order, they make the donuts fresh to order so it takes around 5-10 minutes for your donuts to be made. I recommend eating them right away and it will literally melt in your mouth. There is a decent amount of seating inside and outside to relax and wait for your donuts. As for the donuts itself, I recommend getting the tasting box to get a flavor you really like. I've tried the Cosmic Churro which tastes like your average churro, Lilokai which was sweet and just the right amount of tart, Pandan was pretty good and their hot singles and Original Sin are good options too, you can't go wrong. My ultimate favorite is their Miso Honey though, that one is outrageously good. Shoutout Robby for holding the store down too!

I love holey grail donuts so much! They have the best taro based donuts that are hand-fried (NEED to be enjoyed while they're hot). They have such creative flavors which I appreciate and the ingredients they use are top notch...I've tried just about every one and have to say that my favorite flavor is the hot single by far and as shown in my picture lol. Service is always great and the inside is so cute. You have to check it out!

This is a cute donut spot in Belmont Shore. The donuts are made from taro. These aren't like regular donuts or cake donuts. It's kind of thick, but not heavy and it's chewy. It's made to order so it's not sitting out in a display case. It's really fresh and hot when you get it and that's the best time to eat it. I ordered the 4 pack tasting box. It came with 4 different donuts - purple haze, pumpkin spice, cookies & cream and J Dilla. They were all good, but the J Dilla was my favorite because it had chocolate.

Delicious donuts made of taro! I'd say texture-wise, they feel like a hybrid of cake and mochi donuts. They are definitely unique so you ought to try them for yourself! I loved the donuts but I'm not a big fan of their coffee and matcha drinks because they are dairy-free and use macadamia nut milk and I do not like the taste of macadamia nut milk combined with coffee or matcha. It just doesn't work for me. I'll go back for the donuts but I'll skip the beverages..

Taro based donuts! Each donut is made to order and dipped individually by hand. Very interesting process of making them and fun names : original sin, hot single, PB cup, Hail Mary and lilikoi. You can get an assortment box from 4 pieces to a dozen. Friendly and patient service: it's not easy deciding which one to NOT get. Also got iced Hawaiian vanilla latte and and iced Hawaiian chocolate drink. One bathroom but no changing table for infants or toddlers. Lot of merchandise including coffee beans and shirts, bags, mugs, hats etc... Open air seating but our group took up the one long table (10 adults). Many more stools available. I really enjoyed the lilikoi or passion fruit donut. You can get a pack of donut holes dipped in one flavor I suppose.

This is one of my favorite new places. Donuts are made per order so very fresh and presentation is excellent. I'm big on customer services so the intentional connection with us was great. The vibes were vibing here. It wasn't busy when we arrived so we got our donuts right away. As someone who isn't big on sweets this is now my new favorite dessert place. All of the donuts we got were so delicious. The wild guave licking fingers good. The Rick Martinez the layers of flavors was exceptional. This is the second time I've got the reincarnated donut and I'm so happy about it!

I swear we've seen this movie before but the grail is something you don't have to sacrifice your limbs for. It does hurt the wallet though when you realize the box and portion is the size of said wallet. Hey it was good though! I think I'd have to sacrifice something just to get a spot around Belmont Shores though. Obviously it's not a bakery issue but who would've thought an 11AM visit on a Tuesday would still compel finding parking in a residential neighborhood 2 blocks away. The takeaway here though; nothing feels better after walking a bit in the blazing sun when the place literally slaps you with immediate AC and a cool fan. ‍‍ The vibe and service matches each other perfectly which is amazing to me; vibrant but chill, loud in appearance but classy in execution and approachable. What surprised even more is that the cashier actually knew what the food profiles of each little donut provided. Expertise even though she said she was only working there for a month or two? Slay girl. Especially when I heard the menu changes almost every week. Now the prices don't seem off-putting at first considering we're entering this establishment with an expectation of what a donut looks like both in appearance and size. Let alone I never would've expected that they glaze, style and the donuts on the spot when you order it. All that frosting caking up a fresh pillow of a donut But guys/gals... that expectation caught me by surprise. The sizes between the price to portion is... sub. I want to say it has something to do with the taro-based dough they used. But when I got my box of what was four donuts thinking there was only two until I opened the box; Miso Honey (funny enough miso and honey do go together), Food of the Gods (looked plain but those cacao nibs were awesome), Pandan Paradise (pandan, mango and passionfruit? Yo chill) and Tropical Swirl (swirl of strawber-SWEET, it was too sweet). I put these in order of favorites, starting with my most favorite. Premium flavors but definitely something for an occasion than a frequent visit.

Hello vegan-friendly, made-to-order, taro-based donuts! I didn't even know taro-based donuts is a thing but here they are at Holey Grail. Strolled in with friends at this Belmont Shore location. I was instantly intrigued by the Pandan Paradise because I'm super Pinay like that. Good mix of tropical flavors from the pandan, coconut, mango, and lime zest. The donut is warm when I received it and the texture was light, fluffy, and a slight toasty bite from the caramelization from being fried in coconut oil. Visually eye-appealing too! https://yelp.to/HCHJScBe_V I paired this with a Hot Hawaii Vanilla Chai made with macadamia milk. IMHO it was lukewarm upon receipt but the flavor was good. https://yelp.to/BqY_iTafGV Small patio area to enjoy our sweet treats. Great for people watching. I'm a fan! I've had the opportunity taste other flavors on a different visit. But it was for a Yelp Elite Experience which is not reflected in this particular review. But that experience can be read here: https://www.yelp.com/biz/apihm-on-the-coast-yelp-experience-at-holey-grail-donuts-long-beach?hrid=fu5vwru6ud6YxJeq-xvzeQ&utm_campaign=www_review_share_popup&utm_medium=copy_link&utm_source=(direct) Note to self: Not all flavors are vegan. Some may contain honey or bee pollen. Online ordering indicates those items. Staff can also help let you know too.

After the Yelp event, I decided to purchase coffee sticks and candy bars. The review below is based on purchases made and not the Yelp event. I viewed the merchandise, but I did not purchase any, yet. The coffee was bold and dark with a nice scent. I made sure to get that scent before putting cream inside. I loved the milk chocolate and dark chocolate bars, I liked the flavor of the milk chocolate a little more. The coffee packs and chocolate bars were not cheap, I am absolutely not rich, yet I would buy them again. The transaction was quick and once again, the staff was very friendly and answered all questions I had. This shop is on the popular Second street in Long Beach, some days, sometimes, it can be harder to find parking, plan ahead. I look forward to trying more coffee and more donuts, which are fresh and refreshing. The Staff here is awesome, so I am happy to write this review.

Really excited about these, but they fell short of my expectation. Came on a recommendation of a local. Love that they're taro based donuts from Hawaii. They fry them to order so they come out hot and fresh. The flavor combos are unique and fun. However, they were greasy and if not eaten right away they were simply not good. They shop is beautiful on the main drag of Long Beach. The employees were patient and helpful and the place was clean.

Very solid donuts! The toppings are added on fresh to order which is really nice. Unique flavors and some fun seasonal ones as well! I got the Chocolate peanut butter and Guava - both spot on with their descriptions. The donuts themselves are soft and not too dense which I like. Fried to perfection.

Finally tried Holey Grail donuts - we got the sampler box. Their donuts are made from taro root and are fried in coconut oil! so they are healthier than typical donuts I loved their pandan and passion fruit donuts - so unique. Need to try their chocolate one soon. The iced matcha colada fizz was disappointing. Would come back for donuts, not for drinks.

Very cool concept - taro donuts. A nice change from your usual donuts. Chewier and not as bitingly sweet. Each one topped painstakingly by hand. Coffee's pretty good - pretty sure it's Hawaiian coffee.

Friendly and helpful staff who can answer any questions you have about the type(s) of donuts you are craving/seeking. Freshly made donuts with great flavor and awesome attention to details! Adequate street parking. Small outdoor patio with some tables and chairs to enjoy the sun. Clean space with music playing in the background.

I have never had a donut MADE TO ORDER before, but wow I don't think I can go back to any other way! We stumbled upon Holey Grail Donuts when running some errands down in Belmont Shore and decided to split the maple donut which was soooo good. The team members were really helpful in their recommendations too! With an open air concept, it was so nice to sit and enjoy our treat after.

2/7/25 Kaua'i favorite makes it to the mainland (great donuts with an island flare).--each made to orders get 'em piping HOT! Must've passed by the original food truck donut shop in Hanalei a few hundreds times in Kaua'i-- only to finally try em here in Belmont Shores! Been meaning to stop by & try them too. This used to be Earl of Sandwich I believe (?) now serving up made to order donuts. Flavors inspired by the islands bounty: lilikoi, taro, cacao with fun names like Original Sin. The logo, which is the Holy Grail-legend has it that it holds (pardon the pun) miraculous powers because it was thought to be the cup that Jesus Christ drank from. It would've been fun if they served their coffee in such a vessel lol. Yet digress. Tiffany (friendly & helpful) happily took my order & recommended to try the donut holes to also try their dips. I requested their popular flavor (i forgot the name). Then the Chocolate Crunch caught my eye- with cacao nibs sprinkles. The shop is small but it has an open air concept. There's a long common table with benches inside & a patio with stools & a bar type table so you can people watch as you enjoy your treats. Hey bring your pup, Long Beach is very dog friendly. Made to order does not mean long waiting time, mine was ready in less than 5 minutes, as I said, piping hot! The Chocolate Crunch had glistening chocolate glaze & I saw the donut maker sprinkle the cacao nibs artfully onto the fresh glaze, in a pinch. et Voila! Soft, fresh doughy goodness, a bit too sweet but good enough to share the calories with Hubby (he's not a fan). I loved the Original Sin donut holes as I dipped them- perfect! Parking on 2nd Street is metered or find any along the side streets. They also sell merch like T-shirts, chocolates & other fun knickknacks. Now I really wanna visit the one in Hanalei when we return to Kaua'i --- if you can't wait, check this one in Belmont Shores!

Delicious made to order taro donuts. They are cake-like so don't expect an airy donut. The flavors are inventive and the flavors are strong. Not sure that I could eat 2 of these donuts. I had the Original Sin which is glazed with vanilla bean and salted maple. Can't wait to try other flavors! They are a bit pricey but I think it's worth it. The service was just ok. No one was super friendly but they were not rude and answered all my questions.

Such a cute donut spot! Fresh, made to order, hand-fried taro donuts. Which means they use Hawaii-grown taro as the base of their donuts. I ordered the 4-pack box. Original sin, notorious P.O.G. (My fav), whisky n' s'mores, and yuzu creamsicle. Don't those flavors sound intriguing?! Small donuts but mighty in flavor. All the 4 were so good and guess what? They were all gone by the next morning. Staff is so friendly and attentive. I love exploring all the places on 2nd street. These donuts are not cheap but I'll still come back. So should you!

Took a stroll along 2nd Street and a sweet scent made me stumble upon Holy Grail Donuts. The inside has an open concept with a patio to enjoy the weather. The menu has weekly rotating flavors as well as permanent flavors. They're slightly on the pricey side at about $4 a donut, but they pride themselves in using very clean ingredients. All donuts are made to order. Ordered the Hail Mary, J Dilla, Miso Honey, Original Sin. The size is relatively small compared to usual donut shops so it's pretty easy lose track and eat multiple donuts in one sitting, especially when they're warm! Since each donut is fresh they have a good exterior crisp but also melt in your mouth.

I heard about this place from a friend. They highly recommended it to me saying it was one of the best donut spots when they lived in the area. They were not wrong. This place was beyond my expectations. The shop is so aesthetic, nice, and cute. Everything was organized well including their merch, coffee beans, and little chocolates you can buy. I can tell they are original and authentic. This was the first donut place ever that I've been to that makes everything by the order. They really take the time and effort to make your experience worth it. The workers were super nice and helpful in making us with the recommendations. These are definitely flavors I have never seen before and they were amazing. The first bite of the donuts were so unreal because they were super warm, soft, and light plus it wasn't too sweet which I love for donuts. All the donuts I got were delicious but if I had to pick my top 2 for someone to try, it would be the Hail Mary and the Reincarnated. The Hail Mary was floral from the rose and you get that hint of cardamom. The reincarnated had a lot of texture from the coconut and sea salt. It adds so much depth to the flavor. All in all I definitely be back one day and try their over flavors as well as grab some cute merch for myself.

Our fav donut spot! We love 2nd street and love getting a sweet treat and then walking around. Even though it can be a bit pricey, I promise it's worth the hype. You can taste the difference in quality and ingredients. Even though I crave it more than I should I limit myself because I know how addicting it can be! They make the donuts fresh on the spot! The chocolate and original sin are always our go to options but I love trying their different menu options too! The churro inspired was my toddlers new fav!

These donuts are freshly made to order with unique flavors that really burst and stand out. When you receive the donuts, they are still hot with a great fluffy and bouncy texture and a flavor-packed glaze on top (depending on which flavor you get). The size is quite small for the price, but you're paying for the quality and the flavors that are hard to find in other donut shops. This spot might not be for you if you want to dig into a big, classic donut, but I definitely recommend to try at least once!

A little bit pricey but it's worth it. We got 9 donuts. Small but not bad to munch on for a few days. They are made to order so they do taste fresh. We tasted quite a number of flavors and they were all delicious and unique. It's a small place. Mostly for pick up. Glad we could come by!

I love this unique Hawaiian Taro donut spot, located on 2nd street in Long Beach. The donuts are made fresh to order and fried in coconut oil and they are delicious! I bought a 4 pack for my husband's birthday. The cost for 1 is $4 and if you buy a 9 pack, you'll get a bit of a discount. The donuts are a bit on the smaller side. I bought - Notorious P.O.G. - Passion Fruit, Orange, Guava. (A favorite) - Reincarnated - Real Maple, Smoked Coconut, Hawaiian Sea Salt - Original Sin - Hawaiian Vanilla Bean, Maple, Sea Salt - Hail Mary - Cardamom and Rose Love the donuts, and vibe of this spot that is definitely worth a visit.

So happy I don't have to go all the way to Hawaii for Holey Grail anymore! This place serves up some made to order taro donuts that are nice and crispy on the outside and nice and fluffy on the inside. Definitely recommend eating it fresh if you can! I also tried their pineapple passionfruit drink which comes with some coconut cream on top and it was so refreshing and not too sweet. I believe there is a small private lot, but I was able to find street parking pretty easily on a Saturday afternoon!

The weather was so nice we decided to walk down 2nd street today and we came across Holey Grail Donuts. As soon as my wife saw there was a connection to Hawaii and she saw the P.O.G Donut on the menu we had to stop. We were welcomed in by a very nice young woman. Who gave us a few recommendations. We ordered the P.O.G and the Reincarnated, both of which were really good. Hot, fresh and had a very mild crunch on the outside which I loved. Only complaint, well not a real complaint but they could've been bigger, they were quite small but very good quality. Price was average for the quality, $4 per donut but worth it. The inside was clean.and very organized. Had a mini shopping area with some items that catered to the store. Had a public restroom and some stools where you could relax and enjoy. They are dog friendly so bring your pup and enjoy the afternoon

Best and freshest donuts I've ever had! I felt a little less guilty eating 2 donuts knowing they're made with taro and coconut oil. We tried the Rick Martinez, Hot Peach, Lilikoi, and Reincarnated. All phenomenal and came out warm and soft. I'll be thinking about donuts until my next visit!

Went on a Tuesday at 6pm. Parking could be difficult, but luckily we got a spot right in front. It wasn't busy. It's like an upscale donut spot. Nice spot to chill at if you're looking for a place. The people there were very friendly. Got these ones to try: -Original sin -Dandelion chocolate -Holeys rolled in sugar Each donut is made fresh, so they're all nice and warm. Size is small. Liked the crisp outside. Smooth inside texture. It's more donut like when it was cold and more mochi donut like when it was hot. I liked it better when it was fresh. Notes: -They have an all gender bathroom

My fav kind of donut is a simple yeast glazed donut, but I saw this place after getting coffee at Colossus so I figured I'd check it out. It was so good, I forgot the flavors I got but the one with the crumble was so delicious. They come out nice and warm, so it's a little bit of a wait bur worth it. Definitely will go back.

Last review of 2024 has to go to my fav new business on 2nd Street! The donuts here never disappoint. We routinely bring visiting friends and get variety boxes for parties. I personally love that the smell of these donuts makes the whole block smell scrumptious. Favorite Flavors: Original Sin and Hot Single (we like the OGs), but the rotating flavors are usually great too - favorite recently was the Naughty List. Vibe: super chill, mostly street parking, open air seating. Donuts are made to order so always super fresh. Service has always been pleasant!

Haiku: Holey Grail Donuts Taro-made donuts Sustainable, organic Hawaiian flavors. --- I'm so glad I stumbled upon Holey Grail Donuts while walking around 2nd Street in Long Beach. The Tasting Box was calling my name. I mean, how can you resist Lilikoi, Black Sesame, Chocolate Crunch, and Purple Haze flavors? All the flavors were spot on. When it's fresh, it's light and fluffy. Just note after a while, it has a bit of a mushy texture. Maybe because it's taro-based? Service is sweet and friendly. The whole shop has a local, chill vibe with Holey Grail merch, curated home goods, and chocolate. I align with their mission to create made-to-order, fresh taro donuts using sustainable ingredients and donating proceeds to charity. They use Hawaiian-grown taro, single-origin cacao, and fry in organic coconut oil. They also locally sourced ingredients from farms in Hawaii and West Coast states. I'm looking forward to coming back!

I stumbled upon Holey Grail with one other person when we were grabbing frozen yogurt across the street. Unlike other donut shops Holey Grail uses taro as their donut base and 100% organic coconut oil to fry their donuts in. That is super impressive to me considering how much I hate that other donut shops uses cheap seed oils to fry their donuts. Holey Grail uses real ingredients and they even make them fresh when order. And they change their menu every Thursday. When I came in that Monday it wasn't very busy. We ordered and shared their seasonal Holey Snickerdoodle donut holes and Original Sin (which was a Hawiaii Vanilla bean with maple sea salt). The snickerdoodle donut holes were my favorite. They were still warm when we got them and the cinnamon sugar outside was divine. The original sin donut was also good. The flavor wasn't super empowering and it was nice. Both were very good and I would get them again. The staff was nice and knowledgable. The donuts took 5 minutes to cook. The taro base gave it a new chewy flavor which I enjoyed. A donut is $4 and they aren't super big but they definitely are satisfying. The donut holes were larger balls than other donut shops and were priced at $7 for 5 of them. You can also buy 16 for $18. They usually have over 8 different flavors of donuts you can choose from. Besides donuts they also have crafted drinks such as lattes and their fizz drinks. Overall, I am glad Holey Grail choose to be here and I am all for their ingredients they use. I recommend it to those that apprecaite quality ingredients.

Although I was in Honolulu in December somehow I missed this mostly vegan, taro-based donut shop. For my vegan friends, there are just a few donuts here that aren't vegan (honey) do just ask at the counter for confirmation. I ordered the Original Sin bc you can't go wrong with a maple donut. I didn't realize that these taro-based donuts are made-to-order. I loved the crunchy little bites. My only complaint about the donut-I wish it was larger! The staff were super-friendly and were great to talk with while my donut was getting made. Bright, clean shop with merch & other items (chocolate bars) for sale.

I love to eat donuts. So I decided to stop by to try their special Taro donuts. The donuts are made to order. They are not only beautiful but also delicious. The staff is super friendly and helpful. They recommended that I tried the pandan paradise and the Hawaii vanilla as it is not too strong. I ended up ordering what the staff recommended; Pandan Paradise and Hawaii Vanilla. I love how the donut and the coffee pair well together. The donut has a good balance of sweetness and tartness. I really like the passion fruit flavor and the coconut flake. I love how the coconut flake really shine through even though it only a small part of the donut. The Hawaii Vanilla was so creamy with macadamia nuts milk and a hints of vanilla. It's so good! I will be back to try more!

First off, I am plant based vegan and always scour places that are friendly for me to patronize. If you haven't tried Holey Grail, do yourself a favor and run to it! My first time in Long Beach and I was happy to find it. The store is open, airy and bright. The ambiance and vibe is great and the service was top notch. This is the first made to order donut shop that I've heard of. I love this concept because you do have to worry about getting stale, old donuts and did I mention made to order equals HOT and FRESH!!! And although that is the case, the speed in which they are able to get the donuts out is seamless. No issues with waiting a long time from my perspective. The flavors are so unique and they have signage in the store that speaks to what they make the donuts out of, so that is helpful. I came back here two days in a row and plan to take some before I leave Long Beach. Overall, great experience for me and I highly recommend if you haven't given them a try!

The box is beautiful. But maybe because it's vegan donuts or something like that... taste wise its not good to me. The dough is dry but dense, and soaked with grease. Then the icing is thin and doesn't cover the thickness of the grease. The flavors weren't strong or fragrant either - for instance, the POG should be delightful in theory, but the passionfruit taste was chemical-y and artificial. For a spot that came from Hawaii, I had way higher expectations. I've been to way tastier asian-adjacent donut shops that actually give decadent bites, but then again its LBC so my expectations are probably too high. Krispy Kreme fresh might even be better than this (though Krispy is usually waaaay too sweet). Also these donuts are smaller than usual sized ones, but maybe that's a good thing to some people. This box of mid-tasting small donuts was $36 after tax.

Pretty unique donuts but expensive. Parking in the back or on the street. Friendly service.

Best donuts in town especially if you're craving a donut in the late afternoon which for some reason seems to be my jam. Loved the flavors after getting to sample them at a Yelp event I had to come back and try more flavors. I think my favorite at the moment is Miso Honey or Original Sin. I can't really decide. The Maple one is also amazing. Staff is super friendly and the donuts come out warm and fresh. Tried the tonic coffee too which is fun and different. Cool vibes inside with good music and fun merch. The donuts are too good I will be returning too often. Just writing this has me craving one again.

Made to order donuts how could you go wrong? The menu has a wide variety and nothing beats how fresh it is but I think if I ordered it delivered and it sat for a bit, it wouldn't be the same experience
