San Francisco: Bob’s Donut & Pastry Shop

A 24-hour donut shop in the Nob Hill neighborhood. Hot donuts taste even better after midnight.

They start making donuts around 9-10 PM. You can call ahead or check their Twitter to see when they’re ready, but we got lucky and arrived in the middle of a live donut making session.

A whole rack of cooling donuts. Cool faster, damn you.

At last, paradise by the neon light. This classic glazed donut was fresh and hot and so, so delicious.

Lots of people come here for the apple fritters. I liked the fresh apple chunks inside, but after having a hot donut, a room temperature one just couldn’t compare.

We tried an old-fashioned cake donut too (not hot); I really learned the best plan is to get whatever’s fresh out of the deep fryer, regardless of what kind it is.

Late night donut paparazzi showdown.

If every neighborhood had a 24-hour donut shop like Bob’s, the world would be a happier place.
