So many vegan options

I'm town to visit family. Heard about this place and had to check it out. We got a dozen for the family and it was $21. The vanilla cream filled was so good

Pros: So many vegan choices, Tastes great, Friendly

Cons: Expensive

Great donuts but deceptive sales tactics

Positive: Jelly Donut and Butter Flies (Peanut Maple Cinnamon Roll) are two of my favorite items here. I also like the regular Cinnamon Roll and the Vegan Bagel Sandwich (with Ham, Bacon, and Cheese)—although it's oily. I don't recommend the Apple Fritter because the high sugar concentration is overpowering, and the donut is unreasonably large to finish.

Negative: The donut trays lack labeling. The pricing is confusing. Most of the donuts are actually $1.75 each (for "fancy")—$0.50 more than the standard $1.25 shown on the wall menu (for "old fashioned"). The language barrier makes it easy for the clerk to hustle you into purchasing more donuts than you originally intended. The clerk doesn't provide or offer a receipt, but instead uses mental math and rounds the total up to the nearest dollar. During my most recent visit, the amount charged was shown to me on the payment device, and this amount also appeared as a pending charge on my bank app. However, when the payment cleared two days later, I was overcharged by $6. So, I have opened a dispute of the charge through my bank.

Recommendations: 1) Decide ahead of time on the maximum number of donuts you're willing to purchase, and the most money you're willing to spend here; 2) Bring enough cash to cover the bill, because this business prefers cash payment, and charges a significant fee for paying with debit or credit card; 3) Request an itemized receipt; 4) Tell the clerk the exact number of donuts you will purchase; 5) Don't let the clerk rush your decisions, or pressure you to buy additional items that you didn't ask for.

Pros: simple, traditional, unpretentious

Cons: clerk pressures you to buy more and more items, no receipt provided or offered, undisclosed fee for payment by credit card

OMG OMG OMG

Would consider relocating to the other side of the world just for these donuts. When you are within driving distance you must must must go there. Top two rows are vegan and some extra once’s on the bottom right shelf (just ask the really nice guy behind the counter). They even have some more food (lunch?) options on the menu marked vegan but I was too distracted by all the sugary goodness to really pay attention. Did I mention I love love LOVED the donuts yet?

The best vegan donuts in Vegas

You’ve found the best vegan donuts in Vegas! They do carry non vegan options so I recommend to confirm what rows or trays have vegan options available but I’ve never been disappointed by any of the flavors I’ve tried at Ronald’s over the years!

Pros: Lots of options including “cream” filled , Knowledgeable staff , Centrally located on Spring Mountain

Didn’t taste special, I’m curious if they’re really Vegan

They just tasted like plain sugar. I know they are donuts, they’re supposed to be sweet, but I’ve had some that had really good flavor that didn’t just taste like nothing but sugar. She claims that 2 out of three rows are vegan. Usually we go somewhere and have 3 options that are vegan. I’m not convinced that in ChinaTown they somehow make 2/3rds of their entire donut collection Vegan. If it wasn’t for my husband convincing me to stay I would have skipped out on this donut shop. Neither of us finished our donuts and ended up throwing them away. We’ve never done that. They were gross

Pros: Lots of vegan options apparently

Cons: May not be vegan, Don’t taste good unless you like pure sugar taste

You are one of the few commenters that actually made me think about Ronald's as well as other Cambodian donut shops that claim they have vegan donuts. These don't taste like they have dairy but the texture makes me think there could be egg.

I'm not convinced either. Oh well no donuts in Vegas now. Vegans are easily fooled just because something is labeled vegan, we get excited unfortunately.

Great donut shop

This place is great. All the donuts and bagels are tasty. The top two shelves are vegan (donuts) while the lower shelf is not.
The bagel sandwiches are worth a try and they have several drinks (coffees and Thai teas) which they will use soy instead of milk.

Soooo many vegan options!! I compare all other donuts to Ronald’s and none of them come close. Cheap, delicious and legit. I’d give 10 stars if they would go completely vegan!!

Pros: Lots of vegan options

Cons: Serves dairy and egg

Amazing

If you are visiting Vegas or you live here. Please stop by!!! So many options for vegans!! All kind of sort of donuts and even bagels sandwiches. I was so surprise most of their donuts are vegan. Except maybe one row which is not vegan.

Got my jelly donut fix

For the longest time I've been searching for a vegan jelly donut. Something so simple was not easy to find but this place had them. I didn't know only the top 2 shelves were the only vegan donuts I thought it was all vegan but luckily that's where mine were.

Pros: Good donuts, Reasonably priced

Cons: Vegan donuts are not labeled

Best vegan donuts ever!!!

Recommend? Yes to the nth power.

This is not an all vegan establishment. The items I ordered are vegan. I stopped by twice. First time during the afternoon, maybe 2PM. Second time at 6AM. The first 2 rows of donuts are vegan and I wish I had gotten a picture. I have tried 4 of the donuts, the chocolate eclair, the cinnamon roll, the hand and cheese bagel, the apple turnover, and the apple fritter. I strongly advise going as early as possible, they open at 5AM.

The donuts are light. It is exactly like how I remember a donut. Where I'm from I often see vegan donuts and I get all excited, but only to be greeted with something dense and cakes. Not that that is bad, but it's not what I want in a donut. This place just completely blows my mind with these.

Chocolate eclair - It's light like the donut with a nice frosting.

Cinnamon roll - It's not overly cinnamon flavored and lighter than normal cinnamon rolls.

Apple fritter - full of chunks of apple. Very sweet.

Ham and cheese bagel - This didn't have as much "meat" as I would have liked. For the price, it's a fair sandwich.

Apple turnover - The outside is flaky and full of apple. Kind of like a handheld pie.

I would say that the glazed donuts and cinnamon roll are my favorite here.

Cons: $1 fee for cards

The best vegan donuts of all time! I have never had a better vegan donut. The apple fritter was huge and delicious. The maple bar was the best one I've ever had in my life. They also have vegan ice cream, Thai ice tea and breakfast sandwiches. Go get some! Nom nom nom 😋

Best vegan donuts ever

These are the best vegan donuts I’ve had! They’re very reasonably priced as well. The top two rows are vegan. It’s a little confusing because they’re not all labeled vegan, but if you ask her which ones are vegan it’s the top 2 rows. They also have amazing vegan Thai iced tea.

Best Donuts Ever

I am seldom in Vegas, but when I am I always make the out of the way trip to Ronald's. The donuts are to die for (they are light and airy not heavy and cakey) and the best priced vegan donuts I have ever seen. The selection is amazing and everything tastes as good as it looks.

Pros: Amazing Value, Phenomenal Taste, No frills or gimmicks

AMAZING VEGAN DONUTS!

We’ve been to a lot of Vegan donut places but this is one of the best. Plus it’s so affordable in comparison to other vegan donuts we’ve been to before.
The top two rows of donuts are all vegan - which is basically almost all of their selection.
They tasted amazing, so flavourful and light and fluffy.
The lady working there was so nice and friendly too.

Pros: Amazing Selection, Very Affordable , Friendly Staff

Vegan donuts?!

I first came here on a trip in 2015 and thought, “If I lived here, I’d weigh 400lbs from nonstop donut consumption.”

Fast forward to summer 2016 and I now live here. The donuts have not gotten any less delicious 4 years later.

They have tons of options. Make sure you bring cash, make sure you pick from the top two shelves in the cases for vegan donuts.

***The donuts on the bottom shelf are not vegan!!***

Pros: Tons of delicious donuts, Cheap!

Cons: Cash only
