Review & Rating
Delicious and unique donuts! My favorite is definitely the Vietnamese coffee, but I know that the maple bacon is also a favorite of folks (because bacon). The donuts are sized to share which helps you to be able to try more flavors!
Not the best donuts I've had, but they were good. It was a nice place to stop in for a break while wandering through the neighborhood as a tourist.
There are only a few vegan options, but they never disappoint! Also, I think they might be the only place in Union Square that serves Counter Culture coffee which is an added bonus.
Donuts tastes really good but employees don't even ask if you need a box for the donuts, they just wrap the donuts and put it one above the others, so when you get home the chocolate on top of the donuts are all stuck on the paper that they wrap it up! C'mon Union Square Donuts employees!!! 😒
Union Square Donuts is Boston's famous donut shop and it lives up to the hype. This location is north of Harvard University in a quaint strip with several other cafes, restaurants, and shops. It's small, but they do have several tables and window seats. They also have a bathroom. They sell coffee and breakfast sandwiches, but even if you order those, get a donut too. They make them fresh daily and they are big. I loved the brown butter hazelnut crunch donut. One will fill you up!
Always a line. Always worth it. Bourbon sea salt is still the undisputed champion in my book.
Probably my favorite donuts in Boston (or in general). A lot of people love Blackbird but Union does it for me. They have all the fancy flavors but I'm really a basic kinda guy. Vanilla bean and the classic glaze are just awesome. I'd be 400lbs heavier if I went there as much as my stomach tells me to. Coffee is also good considering they use Counter Culture and staff is always friendly!
These donuts are good. I used to think they were great, until I tried Blackbird donuts. The reason I never go here anymore, despite living nearby and loving donuts, is that they don't sell cake donuts or old fashioned donuts. I asked about this and they told me it's because they only make one type of batter and cake donuts require a different type of batter. I totally understand this because it's a small shop. I just really, really like cake donuts. If I'm spending calories on junk, it should be my favorite junk. So, for gourmet donuts, these are good but not the best.
They were out of most donuts on Sunday afternoon but the ones they had were good. The cappuccino was alright but I wouldn't go here for the coffee again. The donuts didn't live up to the hype for me, but they were really good.
Best donuts north of the pike. Fantastic choices. Filling too— they’re worth the price.
