One star only for the service. The lady who works there is extremely slow. She was preparing 2 coffee drinks for 20 minutes. During that time she had a line of 5 people waiting.

Five stars for this doughnut. I've probably had better doughnuts in general, but this particular Donnie is everything! It's sweet and savory and has all the things I love. Hmm maybe I'm not really into sweets, actually I usually like hot sauce on this one. But honestly, everyone should have a doughnut they love and this one's mine. Generally thier flavors are really good, especially the filled ones. I prefer their yeast doughnuts.

Donut was good - didn't taste stale nor have have a feel like it had been sitting on the shelf. I went with a basic glazed which tasted like what I expected - good amount of glaze and fresh taste. Wife went with the glazed, too, and shares with my opinion. Friends expanded and got the more unique/rare donuts and raved about them so I definitely suggest going that route. Coffee drink is made fresh which was a great add on!

These are undoubtably the WORST donuts I've ever had. I went looking for the best donut in Boston. I mentioned that at the counter, and the other customer waiting for his coffee commented, "I know some good places..." then trailed off. The attendent didn't say anything. I got two of their 'best sellers'. One was just bad. The other tasted like a mistake. Am I critical? Not usually - I love sweet things. I saved the donut for my spouse, who spit it out after one bite. Imagine my surprise when I googled 'best donut in Boston' and found this at the top of the list! Really, Boston?! You can do soooo much better. P.S. These were also the most expensive donuts I've ever purchased.

I ordered catering from this location and was beyond pleased! The staff is super friendly, everything was packaged nicely, and the breakfast sandwiches were delicious. Thank you!

Lovely soft dough and well fried. The everything bagel doughnut was brilliant. Good contrast between the savory and sweet.

Staff was so busy listening in to what the other was saying to customers that they got both mine and the customer in front of me's orders wrong. We were the only people in there. Mabe the wrong coffee for them (at least they could fix it because they caught it there) and missed a donut I paid for, didn't catch it until back at work, so out the money for it. Very Disappointing!

Yummy doughnuts! Didn't get a chance to snap a picture but they were yummy!

Always a treat when in Boston. Iced coffee with new daily doughnut ?

Perhaps one of the most creative donut I had. Besides the everything bagel donut, of which surprised me with its savory filling; the rice pudding donut, filled w classic rice pudding seasoned w cinnamon combined the best of 2 desserts. The donut itself is super pillow-y with ice/filling with just the right amount of sweetness. I regret only getting 6!!
