Here’s where to eat mini donuts in a bathtub

Having lived under a rollercoaster while traveling with her family’s amusement corporation, Conklin Shows, Trish Conklin knows a thing or two about carnival food.
For over 30 years, Conklin has translated her upbringing and love for all things sweet into sugar-coated mini donuts that bring the carnival to San Francisco.
Located at Pier 39, Trish’s Mini Donuts doles out donuts by the bag, bucket, and even bathtub-sized portions. Yes, you read that right.
"I own this fantastic tub, and someone came up with the idea, 'why don’t we just fill that full of donuts and you get in it," described Conklin. "So, we made 5,000 donuts, and we took photos of me in the tub."
The idea turned into an opportunity to house 120 mini donuts in a small tub for guests to graze on!
The donuts are served plain or with a cinnamon toast crunch-like exterior, inside find fluffiness that calls to mind funnel cake-but better. Always served hot and fresh, customers are obsessed with the mini delights.
"We have visitors come back and back," expressed owner Trish Conklin. "As a matter of fact, a gal from Australia is so in love with the donuts, she got a tattoo of [our] logo on her thigh."
Conklin cranks the sweetness up by offering a chocolate-dipped version of the iconic mini donut just steps away from Trish’s Mini Donuts.
"So many people requested, 'can we get other ways, can we get them chocolate dipped,’" said Conklin. "I took over a store here at Pier 39, now called Trish’s Chocolate and that’s where we specialize in chocolate dipping them."
A trip to Pier 39 wouldn’t be complete without grabbing mini donuts in various flavors.
"What I really love to hear is 'I love your donuts, I’ve grown up with your donuts, every time I’m in San Francisco I come for your donuts, it keeps me going," said Conklin.
