The finest donuts in America.

Family owned since 1986.

Bob’s Donuts began as a humble dream in 1986, when our founder opened the very first Bob’s Donuts location in San Francisco. What started as a small neighborhood shop quickly became something special. His masterfully baked donuts captured the hearts of the city, delivering an authentic, homemade taste with the energy and accessibility of a big-city favorite. Word spread fast, lines grew longer, and Bob’s Donuts became a place people returned to again and again. Since those early days, our mission has stayed the same: to serve America the finest donuts we can make, crafted with care, tradition, and a love for the communities we serve.
