Go there, just go

Don't think about it just go. Best to go there on the way from the airport to the hotel, that way you get more time to process the donuty goodness before going again on the way home.
Loads of choices and super cheap, when we went it was $9 for 12 of the 'fancy' donuts.

Pros: Lots of donuts

vegan. donuts.

You've heard of this place. You've probably eaten here. I know vegans who have come to Vegas just to eat here.

It lives up to all your expectations. It exceeds them.

Pros: vegan sweets, affordable

never miss it

Always stop in for the best, not healthiest, vegan donut you've ever eaten. The place is famous. The poor guy at the counter has to listen to every gushing excited vegan customer and their story. They just smile and nod their heads. Very humble people. Every time I go I am never disappointed. It's hard to say a favorite but if I must I would say the raised donut with soy cream filling and chocolate topping. Next the apple turnover.

Pros: vegan, inexpensive, best tasting

Cons: place is a little dingy/ just don't look

Awesome

The donuts here are so moist and yummy. As others have already mentioned the top 2 rows of donuts in their display case are typically vegan. They also have a vegan cream filling that you just have to ask for. They will take the donut in the back and fill it right then. They are cash only and sometimes they close earlier than the hours they have listed so beware of that.

First donut shop donut in 24 years, wow!

I used to love donuts but gave them up when I went vegan. This was my first stop in Vegas. It was an hour before closing so they had 2 rows with about 6 kinds of donuts. The custard filled was the best. All were exceptional. I ate 4 or so. It was funny, the 2 customers after me asked which were vegan so I guess many vegans find out about this place, which is wonderful. I'm going back again before the end of my visit. My partner who is vegetarian, so has had donuts recently, also thought they were particularly good.

Pros: Tasty, Clear about which are vegan, Decent prices

Regular stop on our trips to vegas

As long time vegans we like to treat ourselves a bit when we travel. This is the spot for vegan treats. Donuts are very tasty, not too salty, and all very fresh tasting. One of my favorite places in Vegas for some vegan comfort food. Owner is there and available for questions and everyone is nice and helpful.

Heavenly Do-eat them all-nuts!

This place is ALL that and a box of donuts! Seriously, for a sweet-tooth-fiend like myself, this is truly a vegan dream come true. Melt in your mouth deliciousness. I ordered a dozen and 3 days later the 2 of remaining stragglers were still fresh (I left them out/room temperature. Refrigerating may make them hard). I went on a Sunday morning and not only were the first 2 rows all vegan, but some of the 3rd was as well. So many options and flavors... I'd happily drive 4 hours just to get a couple of dozen to bring back home.

(And the non-vegans who tried them had NO clue these were vegan.)

Vegan Heaven

If there was a heaven for vegans, this would be it. These donuts are incredible and would fool any non-vegan. Soy cream filled, glazed, sugar... so delicious! They are also very inexpensive.

Pros: Lots of Vegan Donuts, Inexpensive, Delicious

Best donuts ever !!

Best donut shop I have ever been to !! Vegan or otherwise .. the soy cream is delicious ... all their donuts are delicious ... but get there early as they close early ... 2pm or 4pm depending on the day ... they have soy milk available by the quart ... & remember it is cash only !! There are other great vegan restaurants in the area too .. on the same street is Veggie House .. make a day of it !!

Pros: Delicious, Amazing, Affordable

YUM!

One of the things I looked forward to the most while anxiously awaiting my Vegas trip was having a donut from Ronald's. It had been such a long time since my husband and I had eaten one and it was something we greatly enjoyed pre-veg. Well...Ronald's lived up to our expectations. We visited them twice during our short stay and even packed some in our suitcase to take home! There's plenty of choices, the prices are low, the people are great, and the donuts will not fail to please. I will be sure to stop again the next time I'm in Vegas. Go. You won't be sorry.

Best donuts EVER

I kid you not, these are the best donuts I've ever had in my life.

A few years back, a friend and I had heard rumors of this place and stopped in on a trip through the southwest - even though it was a bit out of the way.

We asked which donuts were vegan, and the owner leaned over very conspiratorially to whisper "all of them" and then lean back, with a huge smile. We bought an unnecessary amount of donuts and devoured them over the course of the day.

This place is worth adjusting a trip, even for an extra 200 miles.

Pros: Vegan donuts, AMAZING donuts

Cons: Far away from me

The best!

I was so exicted to try this place the last time I went to Vegas, that I literally took a cab straight from the airport before going to the hotel. We bought 3 dozen donuts and ate them all in 2 days! They were even sweet enough to give us a few free ones for buying so much while we waited for another cab. Why can't they be in Canada?

Pros: Cheap, Awesome, Donuts, duh

Cons: Smoking allowed inside, Kinda sketchy looking

Better if eaten sparingly

I had read about this place on happycow, and here's my Ronald's Donuts review

My sister brought over a huge box of them Ronald's Donuts, and I really felt an overdose of sugar. These donuts tasted just like regular donuts, and not like the fancy ones from gourmet and specialty all-vegan bakeries. Not sure if the sugar used is vegan or not.

The vegan donuts tasted good on the same day of purchase, but after an overnight refrigeration, they tasted kinda hard and leaves a sugary and kinda bad after taste... Well, at least vegans can have their donuts!

Pros: some vegan

Cons: very sugary

NOMNOMNOM

As someone who is allergic to dairy, I have never had a fresh donut. I've ordered them online or what have you, but never an honest straight out of the oven ooey-gooey goodness donut. On my birthday trip, I had to have one. This were amazing. We ended up taking a box back to the hotel to let the vallet guys try some. I loved them, my boyfriend loved them, and the vallet guys loved them. These were simply amazing.

Best Donuts.

I used to come here all the time and bring back dozens for my coworkers. I have convinced everyone I know that these are the best. I just hope that someday they come out with gluten free/sugar free donuts.
The owners are very friendly!

Pros: Bear Claw, Cream Filled, Maple Bar

Cons: Atmosphere

OMG! Delicious!

If you're vegan, in Vegas, and love donuts you HAVE to go! It was our very first stop after arriving on a red-eye and picking up the rental car. It had been over 10 years since I had a fresh vegan donut and it was incredible. As mentioned in previous reviews, the top two rows in the display case are vegan. They have all the common donuts you can think of (glazed, chocolate, filled, twist, bear claw, etc). I sampled most and have to say they're consistently good. Not sure if this is on the menu, but they sold me a cup of soymilk to wash down the donuts. In one word, Yum!

Pros: Vegan!, Inexpensive, Friendly, Knowledgable Staff

Cons: Driving distance from the main strip

Ronalds Rocks!

Vegans, when you are in Las Vegas you MUST go to Ronalds. I hadn't had a doughnut in almost 5 years and you would have thought I was a Vegas showgirl the way I kicked my legs up after my first bite! The top 2 rows are vegan. Creme-filled and tigers tail are my faves.

Ronald's Donuts

For vegans it's a dream come true, where you can find vegan donuts. I believe only the top two rows are vegan, but double check with staff. It was tasty after not having one in over fifteen years or so. Been back there twice while driving through LAS.

Pros: Friendly staff

Reason enough to visit Las Vegas

It had been years since I had a donut, they really were my weakness before switching to veganism. When I was searching for vegan options in the area, I was soo excited to see this cute little donut shop listed in Chinatown. Very friendly staff, my only regret is that I should have gotten more donuts! The soy custard filling is to die for and the apple rollups were fantastic. My non-veg inlaws inhaled their donut holes and bought more donuts for the next day. Day old donuts from Ronald's still taste amazing! Can't wait for my next trip to Vegas, I plan to hit up Ronald's more than a few times. :)

Pros: Inexpensive, Delicious, Lots of vegan options

Cons: Distance from the strip, There isn't one where I live

Woe is me!

Why oh why can't I live in Las Vegas?
And why did I ever eat at Ronald's Donuts?
Now all I do is daydream and obsess about donuts. My life has been miserable ever since we left Las Vegas, never to eat at Ronald's again (or at least not until we return on vacation, but whatever).

Okay, this place is seriously amazing. Sure, the building is kinda a dump compared to the glitzy strip, but who cares?! The donuts are delicious and everything I've been missing since going vegan. They're all good (and trust me, I tried them all during my stay), with the chocolate glazed and the jelly-filled being my absolute favorites.

Also, the guy who works there is adorable and super nice.

Pros: awesome donuts, friendly service, quaint

Cons: WHY CAN'T I RATE THIS 5 STARS
