This is one of my happy places. Its by the beach and there's a thriftstore in the same little strip mall. The donuts are super as evidenced by the constant foot traffic and cars coming and going Its got a great vibe. My favorite is the orange glazed. They're all really good. They have more than donuts too. Enjoy!

Thanks VG's. You found a way to ruin it by Raising your prices again. 1.75 is not worth it. Your maple bars look like they caught a case of SHRINKFLATION.I'd rather go support the Asian donut spots.

A true Cardiff institution. Been going here regularly for more than 20 years! Best Donut shop around! No-one makes Fritters better! They made my wedding cake and it not only looked great, but tasted great as well! They have also made Birthday cakes for my kids for years! Big shout out to Joe and his team!!!!
I've been a customer of VG's since 2015. Ive Ordered my wedding cake, baby shower cake and children's birthday cakes from them since and always have been so happy. We are big fans of their red velvet cake. So easy to work with when placing a cake order and very reasonable prices. There was a miscommunication with my order recently but Megan was wonderful and helped make my son's birthday a day to remember. She was able to make his cake in 45 mins and had Aspen deliver it straight to my door. Their commitment to their customers always takes priority and we will continue to be a loyal customer of VG's! Thank you Megan, you're amazing!
I've been going here for more than fifty years, literally.One day a few years ago, I met the owner. I asked him why he didn't make a chain, as his donuts are literally the best in the world.He told me, “I could, but it wouldn't be special.”Word to the wise… cherish this humbly legendary bakery - it won't be around forever.

Donut Series, Part 13VG’s on Valentine’s. It just felt like the right time to give this special place in the heart of many San Diegans a chance to get to know each other better.Putting smiles on the faces of locals since 1969, we love how pillowy soft their donuts are, without the heartbreak of a greasy aftertaste, and light enough to make you interested in a second date.While we’re not sure we’re lovestruck just yet, we have to admit that we keep glancing at our phones to see if the feelings are mutual. ?C’mon and ring already, would ‘ya!!!! ??And that’s…Henry’s Take.#valentinesatvgsParking: Parking is available in the lot in front of VG’s, but the lot is often full. Free street parking is available within a reasonable walking distance.
