★★★★★ 5.0 Gabrielle Schiffler · Feb 2026

Amazing breakfast sandwich on a soft donut-esque bread. The everything bagel seasoning on the bread added such a good flavor to the sandwich as well. The donut selection is also amazing! We tried an obligatory glazed donut, and it was good! Less “soft” than a Krispy Kreme, for comparison, but uniquely theirs.

Had a hot chocolate (1 size only for all hot drinks) & $12 breakfast sandwich. It’s run by college kids, they’re kind of like if you don’t tip them we’re not gonna serve you the way that the order goes. My sandwich was very dry. Had no flavor. Mine knew this is a doughnut place so they’re not good for breakfast sandwich. if you’re trying to get like a breakfast sandwich. The bread was very dry. I don’t even think it was a bagel bread. It tasted more like a hamburger bun, but like a really dry hamburger bun. It’s definitely a doughnut place got those fancy donuts that everyone’s into right now. I wasn’t in the mood to eat a doughnut. I live in Orange County so I have plenty of fancy donut places to go to. Their probably taste better. The review on this place is a little misleading . If you

Drover’s Doughnuts has a new location in the heart of Solvang. You will definitely want to plan on checking it out on your next visit! I got to try a variety of their doughnuts, which are not only tasty unique flavors but beautifully made. I love how they incorporate local flavors from the area; such as blackberry Syrah, blueberry pancake, strawberry matcha and more! They also offer breakfast sandwiches, shakes, dirty sodas, lattes, and coffee. The breakfast sandwiches are made with doughnuts. So, don’t compare or confuse it with a bagel. The doughnut isn’t sweet, but I would say its similar to a biscuit but in doughnut form. It’s light, flaky and not heavy like a bagel would be. I loved the Harvest Moon one! It has egg, sausage, cheddar cheese, arugula and chipotle aioli. Pair this with

The harvest moon breakfast sandwich was excellent. I was skeptical since I don’t really like doughnut and wasn’t sure what the savory base would taste like but it hit the spot. So good

★★★★★ 5.0 Will Heo · Jul 2025

I was surprised how there weren't that many people inside. The place was beautiful, the staff were friendly, and the donuts were amazing (and not pricey). Maybe the vibes might have scared away some customers, with an amazing modern decor and the menu with some items missing prices. But everything was on a cheaper side, and the staff were very chill. I'd definitely visit this place again for a quick bite.
