I sandwich, 2 ice coffees & 1 small regular black coffee - easy, right? Not here.

Poor service - rude even. 1 of the 2 attendants was too worried watching my family sit down, that she didn't make anything but rather eagerly wanted to charge - forgetting 1 coffee & rudely moving on to the next customer, despite being told we wanted our coffee = unacceptable. We were there 1st: finish that order THEN take care of the next person.

Never again.

Donuts were good. But do not get the pastrami sandwich. It looks nothing like the picture and they gave the white part of the lettuce

This place never seems to have enough glazed donuts?

It's a common theme with Asian owned donut shops.

Get a clue!

Find another American owned place

This is the best donut Shop ever I used to go to this donut shop when I was in elementary school.

10/10 stars for the Previous Owners. New owners raised the prices like crazy, and the donuts are half as good. I’m disappointed and I desperately miss the old owners/ donuts

New owners won't answer calls. Wondering if number changed? I've tried multiple times. The old owners always picked up the phone. I will take my weekly business elsewhere.

Don’t come here - new owners cheapened the recipes & raised the prices. My $2 chocolate raised donut tasted like a bowl of General Mills’s Cocoa Puffs w/o milk. Plus, the newly remodeled building is tacky and lacks the charm of the previous Spanish-style exterior. If you need donuts, go to the other Manley’s on the corner of Bird & Minnesota.

Best donut shop in San Jose only place I stop by to get donuts, I remember walking to elementary school and stopping by here every morning.

The new owners ruined this place. You’re better off going to some other donut shop. The menu extensively changed and prices increased about 75%. Way too expensive now! These donuts also taste like they’re made with much cheaper quality ingredients so the steep price increase isn’t justified. I miss the old ownership and donuts from here. Had been coming since 2005 and won’t be coming here any longer.: (

Will miss this wonderful donut shop! The family who ran it was lovely and the donuts rivaled those of Stan’s in Santa Clara.

I’ve been going to this doughnut shop since I was a kid, they got some of the best doughnuts I’ve ever had, nothing fancy just simple doughnuts. The same family has owned it for years.

Amazing breakfast sandwiches. Excellent doughnuts. The chocolate here tastes better than other places I've had. Best quality for a doughnut shop.

My little one and I went to Manley’s Donut Shop in Willow Glen for the first time today. I love that this is a family business, and the donuts are fresh, with a variety to choose from. I got a buttermilk donut, and a few others. Oh my gosh! The BEST Buttermilk Donut In My Life! Delicious! I’ve been going to donut shops all over, since the early 1980’s; so I am not new to this.

We went later in the day, around noon; but supply was ample, which I was pleasantly surprised. Usually, donut shops are down to their last few around that time. Not here. So many to choose from-and fresh! (If they taste this amazing now, I could only imagine how it would be when they first open in the beginning of the day!)

I love the “Mom and Pop” donut shops, over the chain ones. I just feel they have a more fresh, authentic flavor. I love the atmosphere; it’s warmer, inviting, welcoming. Plus, I prefer to support smaller, local businesses. This place is no exception. It provides all of that!

I wish we would’ve taken pictures before hand, but we gobbled them up before we knew it. Lol. (Next time).

Aside from parking being a challenge, everything else was awesome here. Fast, friendly service. You will need to bring cash though. Overall, this is my now, new go-to donut spot.
