Pam’s Donuts & Frozen Yogurt

Finding Pam’s is like finding a unicorn. They have the best sweet treats under one business. You could make a donut ice cream sandwich and wash it down with some boba, not that anyone would want to! They are also keeping up with the trends in the donut business. Pam’s has those delicious blueberry donuts everyone can’t get enough of and you’ll never go in and see their shelves empty. The reason for the 3 star review is because their tapioca boba balls are not fresh and their bagels are Costco bought. I truly believe if you can’t master it don’t do it. Otherwise, this place has great prices and friendly people.

Their donuts are amazing! Their donut glaze is perfectly sweet, the inside of the classic donuts is soft while still having a lightly crisp on the outside. Best in Vista by far! Also really great workers.

Typical crappy looking donut shop; my kind of place! Nothing special or fancy here, just good ol’ donuts made the way they should be made.

Absolutely love this place, my coworkers constantly go there and i love both their breakfast and frozen yogurt selections, they are amazing

Delicious yogurt and great looking donuts/​pastries. Nicely done inside. Surely coming back. Try the pomegranate flavor!!!

Donuts, breakfast sandwiches, boba, yogurt and ice cream?! A bit of an identity crisis but they pull it off here. The boba sign caught my attention but to be honest they don’t offer a wide array of flavors. The yogurt is one of the real highlights. It is self serve and you can add your own toppings from the toppings bar. Fresh fruit, candy, nuts. Etc. You get charged by weight. The donuts looked really good too. They also offer chips and a variety of soft drinks.
The décor is really colorful and bright. The store is well kept and the staff is nice. It’s really catchy and appealing to kids. We don’t have any other shops like this in the area so they really cater to this part of the neighborhood. We’ll be back!

My husband and I come here once a week for donuts and coffee. I love this place! They have a great selection of donuts and drinks. Their iced coffee is delicious, probably my favorite in town. I definitely recommend Pam’s for your donut and iced coffee fix!

Large donut and fro yo shop with plenty of seating.
The staff is very nice here and keeps the store super clean.
Maybe a bit too much, they were spraying all the tables down with windex when I came in which smelled really strong and was kind of a turn off while buying donuts.
My son made himself a cup of fro yo and enjoyed it, plenty of toppings to chose from as well.
Donuts were your average selection, no out of the ordinary ones when we were there or else I would have liked to get a cronut, but since nothing was calling me we stuck with the fro yo which was fairly priced but not my thing either.
Not worth rushing back for, but I’ll check again when passing through the area next time.

My husband and I have been coming here since they opened their doors! Husband and wife owners are such amazing people!!! We always get breakfast bagels for breakfast and have gotten frozen yogurt sometimes! This place is just so cute and we love the owners! They know us and know what we always order and always just get right to making our food when they see us!!! Everything here is amazing!!!

So good!!! Cinnamon roll is the best I’ve ever had!
Love the ham and cheese croissant.
They are very friendly and clean :)

My mom loves donuts and I had to look for a place that was close because my two favorite shops are too far away from her place in Vista. So I looked up Pam’s, which I was happy to see was open until 6 PM since most shops are already closed by the time we started looking for one.
When I went into the shop, I was thrilled to see there were plenty of fresh donuts left even after 2 PM. Most places are pretty sparse by then if they are even open.
My Mom chose the plain cake donut, which is fine for her, but I wanted to taste test a few of my favorites that I usually get at my regular shops in Encinitas Cardiff. So I got a glazed twist, a couple buttermilk’s, a chocolate old-​fashioned,. Yes, I eat them all that’s why I work out!
I’m happy to say they were all delicious and the best thing about them other then them being fresh, was that they are huge! I hate it when donut shops skimp on their sizes and overcharge you. I will definitely bring my mom back to this place!

We had really hit our stride with this place. The hours solidified and we started going here once a week or so. Unfortunately the last two times i went there, they were closed early for the holidays. One time the posted hours said they wouldn’t close until 2pm, and it was 1:10. Also, one of the frozen yogurt machines was off and they werent offering my favorite flavor anymore (original tart). Im hoping it was only temporary.

Cheap, friendly service every time, BEST DONUTS and even awesome breakfast sandwiches. We love this place :)

Yummy! Had a blueberry donut and my very first cronut! I have to say, I’m a fan. My only complaint is that their selection was terrible! I was just there at 9:15 in the morning and they were down to 12 types of donuts at most. They didn’t have any more muffins and their bagels were limited to savoy. I would have loved a cinnamon raisin bagel. Otherwise, worth the trip.

That cronut thing is easily the messiest, disgustingly delicious, diabetes maker I’ve ever had.
The donuts are good. So is the everything bagel. you get a heaping helping of cream cheese with it. They serve a LOT of different things from frozen yogurt to sandwiches to bagels and donuts. It’s a pleasant little store and a good stop when you’re visiting the courthouse across the street.

Not that bad. We live in San Marcos but went there for cronuts on a late Sunday night because they were the only doughnut shop in 20 miles radius that was open and had cronuts. We called in advance and the girl working there said she’d keep 6 cronuts for us. She was super nice.
We ended up buying bunch of other things since it was our first time there.
We bought the cream cheese desserts they have (not sure what they are called, they are $ 1.50 each), some kind of pastry with cream cheese feeling inside. They had them in strawberry, blueberry, and basic cream cheese flavor. All three flavors were phenomenal!
According to my husband their cinnamon rolls ($ 2 a piece I think) were the best he’d ever had. I didn’t try them since I don’t like cinnamon but he swears by them.
Cronuts were just OK and way overpriced ($ 2.50 a piece, a really small one). Small, absolutely nothing special and definitely not worth the price which is the reason for the 4 stars instead of 5.
6 cronuts, 3 cheese pastries, and 1 cinnamon roll we paid almost $ 24.
Did we like it? Yes, almost everything. Will we go there again? Most likely not. Too far for us and way overpriced for what it is.
But not bad.

Great place to get dessert to catch up with friends and family. The customer service was fantastic. Excellent frozen yogurt and welcoming restaurant. Would recommend to anyone with a sweet tooth.

Good donuts, but no bran muffins. Bummer. Best thing about this place it that it has a clean restroom.
They do offer milk with your coffee, as opposed to fake cream. I do like that.

A place for donuts and frozen yogurt?! Yes please! It was very quiet — went at 7:00 on a Wednesday evening. Our group enjoyed the self serve yogurt and tons of toppings. My friend had a ham sandwich on croissant and said it was fantastic. Our group of four had a nice two hour chat and enjoyed the place.
Bought some donuts to go, and those were great, too! We enjoyed those the following morning for breakfast. Still fresh.

I’ve never seen a Donut/​Frozen yogurt shop. I have yet to try the frozen yogurt but I should do that the next time I come. The donuts here are delicious, $ 8.99 for a dozen, they are always fresh and they have a big selection of donuts. You can even come here the day before you want donuts and they will have a different variety for you to pick from. The staff are nice and friendly. I got two dozen donuts which I needed to bring into work and then they gave me four extra donuts as a bonus. Not donut holes or small donuts but the big ones.
Woo hoo! I then took the two dozen donuts to work and kept the four bonus for myself!
