the donuts are huge. absolutely huge. these rival DOUGH donuts from brooklyn in size and fluffiness. maple bacon is amazing. came here at 9:45am on a saturday and there was about a 30 min wait.

Maple bacon , salted caramel , and crunchy hazelnut are favourites, but all are good. The coffee is great and the staff super-friendly. I make a pilgrimage to this place every time I'm in town . ????????❤️

Erik Cintron

Donuts fun simple place. I mean there chocolate was the real deal. Coffee was great the whole vibe was hipster . If your in the area and love donuts this is the place

Jordan Munson

Nicest crew around. Maybe a tie with their neighbors Bloc 11. These donuts are hearty and delicious. Though they're more expensive than Boston's beloved Dunkin, you do get what you pay for.

Leandro Amorim

Best donuts ever. Maple bacon , bourbon caramel and coffee cream are my favorites. Expensive but worth it. They cost five times a regular donut but worth 10 times more.

Jake Smith

The sea-salted bourbon caramel donut is a delicious combination of different flavors, the like of which I've rarely tasted on one plate, let alone one donut .

Danley Hu

I LOVE THIS PLACE. Definitely one of my top three donut choices. The Hazelnut butter is literally heaven in sugar form!

DailyCandy

The bakery has been making history since it opened, turning out inimitable flavors like maple bacon , chocolate chipotle, and sea salt bourbon caramel (the menu changes frequently).

Claire C.

The Fluffnutta looks dense and sugary, but a bite into it erases all doubts - it's airy and sweet with a delicate note of peanut butter pastry creme. This shop's definitely a going-back place.

Spencer Schoeben

this place is absolutely incredible. the peanut butter and jelly donut is to die for

Max

Maple bacon and a surprisingly not super sweet Boston cream that pairs perfectly with coffee . Get a cold brew or walk across the street to bloc 11 for espresso drinks .

Katrina Kibben

Amazing donuts (my fav were the honey almond + fluffernutter) but you have to go early and prepare for a wait. Usually out by noon. Become a fan on Facebook and you'll always know what's up!

Drew M

Union Square Donuts have been one of the best donut shops in Boston for years. If going to the shop go early for the best selection!

Margaret Wang

Maple bacon donut is to die for. Also love the sea salt bourbon donut ! The special cake donut is delicious too. It's all great!

Jamie Lin

Get the Brown Butter Hazelnut Crunch and Maple Bacon , but all the donuts were so soft and delicious!

Kapado Fernand

Everything I got 4 the Green Tea is surprisingly great.

Miguel

A wonderful rotating bunch of flavors. My favorite is the fall-time Apple Crisp.

Laura

If you're going on a weekend, make sure to arrive before noon - the line will be long, but it moves quickly and you'll get your pick of the day's options

Meg Berman

Union Square Donuts does not disappoint with their endless donut options. May I tempt you with my personal favorite? - The maple bacon donut !

Minnie Kim

Can't even put into words how delicious the Maple Bacon Donut is. You have to try it for yourself!

Scott Boni

One is perfect! To internalize the economic concept of diminishing returns have TWO donuts . If you can have two and not feel like you've gained a metric ton please change your lifestyle immediately.

Margaret !

Sure, get one you’re sure to like; but you have to try one you’re not sure about. You won’t be disappointed

Keri Garel

The sea salt bourbon caramel , or the brown butter hazelnut ? Or maybe the maple bacon ? THEY'RE ALL SO DELICIOUS. LIFE IS HARD.

Meg Berman

Union Square Donut does not disappoint with their endless donut options. May I tempt you with my personal favorite? The maple bacon donut !

Dan Bradley

While you wait in line , pass the time by enjoying the loud exclamations of surprise as each new person shows up and is shocked by how long the line is.

Bruna Castro

I actually hate donuts , but theirs is too good, it's like a piece of heaven in your mouth. Maple Bacon Donut is pure bliss

Margot Mazur

The vegan donuts are on point. Enjoy Em in house by the window.

Glenn Charette

Drop your car for service and go have a delicious doughnut !! Monro recommends union square doughnuts !

Gio Pan

Most amazing, fresh, fluffy and deliciously made donuts ! Maple bacon is heaven indeed.

Renato Valdes Olmos

Best donut I've ever had. Beats Blue Star in Portland.

Clancey B

They also have popsicles in delicious flavors like grapefruit ginger mint , cherry limeade , and blueberry ! Almost as good as the donuts .

Lee Stanford

Maple Bacon gets all the hype, but the simple Vanilla is sublime. Get two - they're so light and wonderful, you'll want another.

Andrew Rohm

Brown butter hazelnut doughnut . And any seasonal flavors - vegan are delicious too!

Eric Herot

Maple bacon (and many others) sold out a few minutes before we arrived ~11:15 but the other donuts are still delicious.

A S

The best donuts in town ! The salted caramel and the vitnamese coffee are yummy.

Rachael Ringenberg

8-2 Thursday & Fridays (or until sold out) 9-2 on weekends. Check Twitter before you go. No seats, head to Bloc 11 or Sherman's to have a coffee afterwards.

Showtime TheFist

Couldn't help but feel taken advantage of when I got my $5 nitro cold brew with ice on the cup. The ice completely ruined the nitro experience. Back to Starbucks!

Enrico S

Alright. These are clearly the best donuts in the Boston area. Nice gem in Union sq !

Roz Thomas

Sublime donuts . Sea salt caramel bourbon is something else.

Stevie P.

Maple bacon donut . I came up from Florida just to have one (okay maybe not that extreme but definitely make the detour here for one).

Constantin W

Best Donuts in town !

J V

Everything is good. Brown butter hazelnut is particularly mind-blowing

Stephen Barnes

The fruit themed donuts are my favorite, but you can't go wrong here.

Aaron Bell

Amazing fresh donuts ! The maple bacon was sinfully delicious.

Anne Cush

Fluffa Nutta donuts aren't ready first thing in the morning. They have to be cooled before they can be filled. Look for the around 10:30-11:30.

Char Kasprzak

They open at 8am on weekends; get there before 9am to avoid waiting in line .

Christina Varrasso

Maple Bacon donut , Toasted Cocont, Hazelnut Butter Crunch ahhhh all amazing!

Minnie Kim

If you buy a dozen, you get an extra free donut !
