Java Time Donuts

This is a great spot to grab a donut and a cup of coffee. They offer a delicious selection of donuts. The display case is amazing. They have a few enormous offerings.
The employees are very nice and are quick to offer advice. I have been here five or six times and my favorite item is the maple bar and the bacon donut.
They also have a great selection of coffee.

Donuts are fresh and the service is friendly. Have giant donuts that can be used as celebration cakes — which is cool. They also have these whipped cream or custard filled puffs that are delicious. The puffs were a huge hit with my co-​worker. You should definitely try them out!

Great customer services we got from the young lady helping us. Didn’t get her name unfortunately bc I was too busy looking at their varieties of donuts they had. Their donuts is just ok. The texture’s a little thicker. More doughy. There’s not much of a organize line when you’re there. You just stand around until they say they can help the next person. Minus 1 star for that.

I wanted to write a review simply for the fact that you really don’t find customer service like this anymore. I needed a donut cake for a gender reveal party and Cindy was the best! She helped me plan out how to make it possible and what designs would work, etc. in the end we decided on a bottle filled with the custard color matching the gender of my niece or nephew to be. Unfortunately, the baby did not want to cooperate at the time of the appointments, etc, so we ended up utilizing the credits for another donut cake. Once again, Cindy was completely understanding and worked with me. I would highly recommend this shop to anyone looking for a sweet treat, whether it be a donut or a donut cake. These ladies are amazing!
Bonus-​They are family owned and operated and that is always a positive in my book!

Came here around 10am and the place already had a line. The shop is very narrow so it can get a little awkward trying to figure out who is actually ahead of you. I ordered a dozen of mixed donuts and a dozen of glazed donut holes. The donut holes were amazing and will keep me coming back. The other donuts have a thicker consistency than other donut shops I’ve been to but they aren’t too bad. The one thing that was a little annoying was that the line was being held up because someone was ordering donuts over the phone and the guy ahead of me couldn’t pay yet because their credit card line used the same line as the phone so everyone had to wait until the phone order was complete.

Love love love the happy smiling faces and great customer service I get at Java Time Donuts. Oh, and their donuts are super yummy too.
I’ve been jonesing for a chocolate donut like you would not believe so I stopped by on my way to work. How these ladies manage to be this nice at 630 am when I can barely form sentences, I will never know. But bless their hearts for doing so!
I’ve never visited this shop when I wasn’t greeted or acknowledge right away. Their selection has all the standards I could ask for: maple bars, old fashioned, cake donuts, chocolate glazed and donut holes. I grab a cup of coffee and I’m a happy camper.

Can’t go there to often lol but the donuts are amazing and the selection is crazy, their maple bacon bars are so good ! And the staff is so friendly and fast I’ve never been in there for more then 5 minutes !

Excellent donuts. I tried them all around Elk Grove/​Sacramento are and have to say this is by far the best. I got here around 10 am on sat and the selection was not bad. The donuts were still moist and melts in your mouth. I return Sunday around the same time and the donuts was consistence with the day prior. Service is friendly and price is on par with others.

I stop by here for my daughter a few times a month to get her treat before school. I’m not a big donut fan but I also bought my boss a dozen mixed donut holes. I tried one they were the best donut holes I’ve ever had. They have different flavors from glazed, Oreo, sprinkled, chocolate and more. They have giant donuts for parties and all different donuts sprinkled with popular cereal flavors, fillings and whipped cream and bacon maple bars. Everything always tastes fresh.

They are a great small business!
Every time I visit it seems as though the donuts change. Which is quite a treat to see what new and unique creation they have for sale!
The employees seem so friendly and are also very helpful.
The prices are simply phenomenal!

Holy Donut Batman!!! In honour of National Donut Day work was nice enough to bring in these beauties. These aren’t your regular mom and pop donuts (which I love) but works of art. Donuts with cereal on it, what? Donuts with fruit on it, huh? Anyways, I went Chocolate Bar filled with Peanut Butter. It was delicious!

Best Donut in town. Maple bar with bacon is a must try.

They really are the best in Elk Grove. Fresh donuts done right. The selection is huge and the service is great!

When I had to go to work at 5 everyday, this was my go-​to breakfast spot! There is always a wide variety of different donuts from shapes, flavor and gigantic size donuts. I tried a bacon donut for the first time and it has an interesting taste but it was good. There are other Java Times in Elk Grove but I think this one has the most to choose from.
For parking you can either park in the parking lot in the back or park in front of the building. The front has really small parking though.

I went in to Java Time on a whim, no expectations really as I love most donuts. But I was not expecting the huge selection from an otherwise inconspicuous corner donut shop! After getting over my awe for the giant, specialty donuts I picked out a few regular sized (but still really good looking) donuts. A maple bacon bar, one whipped cream puff, one custard puff, an Oreo bar, a pink glaze sprinkled, and a good ol’ chocolate glazed. The ladies working were beyond nice and after telling them how much I loved donuts and how it was my first time there despite constantly passing the place, she even threw in an extra red velvet donut «just to try it!» How nice right? Would totally recommend Java Time. I’ve already decided I want a giant donut for my birthday instead of a cake lol!

Absolutely love coming to my favorite local donut shop weekly (oftentimes more than that)! The staff, especially Sarah, are always pleasant and very friendly. The donuts are always stocked full and the environment is clean and tidy as well. My favorite order consists of hot French toast coffee with an add shot of espresso along with Oreo donut holes or the occasional chocolate chip muffin. Never am disappointed here! Would definitely recommend this donut shop to anyone in Elk Grove! Also, they can make massive cake-​sized donuts with 24 hour notice for special occasions. They have red velvet donuts and maple bacon as well, so yummy!

LOVE these donuts. My favorite place to get them hands-​down. Better than voodoo donuts in Portland. Tons of variety. Try their cream puffs — either kind, you won’t be disappointed.
The only reason they don’t get 5 stars is that two of the three times I bought one of their mega donuts it collapsed because that particular baker was not great at making them. However, they refunded me partially and even gave me some free donuts. Try this place!!!

After going through photos for Java Time Donuts, I noticed they sold huge oversized donuts! I thought it was such a fun idea but I wanted to save it for a special occasion. Finally a few days ago, I came by and pre-​ordered a large donut to bring to work to celebrate my boyfriend’s last day.
All of the large donuts have to be pre-​ordered at least 24 hours ahead of time. They have multiple sizes, ranging from about $ 20 – 40. It looks like you can pretty much do any flavor, and they have heart shaped donuts too! When I ordered mine, she offered chocolate, glazed, or glazed with sprinkles, so I went with the latter, in the smallest size (which is still HUGE). I was impressed with the price, because usually novelty items like that aren’t too cheap. They can also write on it! They use whipped cream and it’s pretty legible.
My pickup time was supposed to be 1:30pm but I called to find out if it was possible if I could pick it up earlier, and she told me it would be ready in ten minutes! We drove over there and waited a couple minutes and it was warm and ready in the perfect size box. They even threw in a few dozen donut holes for free, covered in matching sprinkles!
As for the taste, it was so light and fluffy and soft! I was expecting the look of the donut to exceed the taste, but wow I was surprised. I definitely thought it would be too dense or dry due to the size, but it was perfect. Soft, chewy, melt-​in-​my-​mouth delicious!
The presentation was spot-​on and I think it’s an awesome alternative to the average cake, and it’s perfect for any occasion, even if you want to just bring a big donut for a big group of people to share!

This place makes a mean combo of bacon and pancakes with maple syrup.
Wait? They don’t make pancakes here?
You’re right… they don’t. But what they do make is a very delicious maple bar with bacon on top. You HAVE to try it. But you better be quick because these things go fast and if you’re not there early enough you’ll miss out.
They also have these cream puffs that are worth the drive, wherever you’re coming from.
What I love about this place even more than the donuts they sell is their customer service. Once you enter you’re instantly greeted with their wonderful staff and they are more than helpful. There have been times that they’ve shown then will go the extra mile to please their customers (an example of this would be taking the time to make extra maple bacon bars for their customers who drop by looking for some.)
Keep up the good work everyone, you deserve the 5 stars that I’m putting out there for y’all.

STAR SHAPED DONUTS?! My life has been empty until now!!!
Wild exaggerations aside, my coworker brought the office a dozen donuts. This can be a good and bad thing. He usually gets a dozen to share on payday (plus) but he also usually goes to some nasty shop near his house where the donuts taste like they were fried in month-​old oil (huge minus). So when he presented a box today I was happy to see it was from a new place. I jokingly threatened that he better not have forgetten to bring me my sprinkle donut, and when he opened the box to reveal a star shaped sprinkle donut, my jaw almost hit the floor. SO FREAKING CUTE! And the donuts themselves tasted perfect! The dough was light and fresh, like a carb cloud on my tounge.
So the freshest donuts I’ve had in a long time, the cutest donuts I’ve ever had, and I’m seeing from other Unilocal reviews that they have the coveted bacon donut. WHAT! If anything could make me wake up early and drive to the other end of the county, it is Java Time!
