Want to know how to make an awesome doughnut taste less awesome? Have someone annoy the hell out of you first. All I wanted was a doughnut with custard inside. Big. Damn. Deal. After expressing this desire to the server, she told me they didn't have any. I asked if there was anything close to a custard doughnut. Then, she changed her mind and told me they did actually have one, with chocolate on top. I noticed a sign that said "custard claw" on it, and inquired about the doughnut behind it. After failing to understand me for the better part of a minute, she said "Oh yeah," and put it into a bag. Lady, you have one job. Come on. I drive off and take a bite of the doughnut. NO CUSTARD. ABORT MISSION. I make a sharp U-turn into the drive through, hand the lady my partially-eaten doughnut, and say, "Give me custard or give me death." She asks if I want cream or Jell-O filling. "I guess Jell-O filling?" I say, feeling a tad uneasy that they fill their doughnuts with instant Jell-O pudding. She tells me there's only the chocolate and custard kind, but then I notice a little picture of coconut custard doughnut on the drive-through window. When I ask about that, she says, "Oh, that's like the chocolate one, only it's coconut instead." "So... it's a different doughnut with custard in it." I say. "Yes," she replies. "I'll take it." YOU HAD ONE JOB. It was as if she had a personal vendetta against me that manifested in the form of preventing me from having custard. The doughnut was flaky, light, delicious and brimming with custard. Guess what? All I can taste is the flavor of irritated. Next time, I'll just treat myself to a pack of Jell-O pudding. read more

Love Bosa Donuts, especially their original milk and thai teas with boba and their blueberry cake donuts

I always thought that donuts were just donuts, but Bosa has a special, non-corporate feel to them. I've stopped through this drive through a few times and have always left satisfied. The most recent visit was later in the evening and they were out of a few of my first choices, but I picked some different options and was on my way. The donuts tasted fresh and when I'm in the mood I will be back for more. read more

Huge, delicious and sweet. That's what you can expect from Bosa! I wish I knew about this place sooner. Glad I tried it and you will be, too! I like that they have a drive thru for the mornings you left the house in your pjs and don't want to necessarily be seen. Try my favorites- raspberry filled or chocolate sprinkles. Ok so maybe I have more than a few favorites! read more

I'm so glad I finally made it into Bosa. This location appears to be in an old Taco Bell (the furniture reminds me of the early 90s Taco Bells) that has not been updated. It wasn't pretty inside but it did not distract me from my mission. I was there to get donuts for a little get-together. The dining room was a little dirty, which made me wonder about the conditions in the kitchen. DD and DH convinced me to order donuts to eat there before we left. I ordered an apple fritter, which I had not had in years. It was the most delicious 5 million dessert calories I can remember. Okay, maybe not the MOST delicious, but dang that was a good fritter! The donuts were all uber-fresh. Even a day later, they tasted fresher than most of the other donuts I've had from chains like Dunkin Donuts. Highly recommend you stop here! Subtract one star for the location, the furniture and the dirty table I had to wash off myself before I felt okay sitting there. Normally a dirty dining room would skeeve me out (and cause me to walk out), but I convinced myself a pack of six messy children had JUST walked away from my table before I sat down. Glad I did. read more

Awesome Donuts! The only thing is, I was expecting the light fluffy glazed that Krispy Kreme has. This is not the same. HOWEVER these donuts are homemade delicious and why not support small businesses?!?! So why the 4/5 star instead of 5/5? Well the majority of our group LOVED the donuts and swears by them. HOWEVER, one or two just thought they were alright and preferred a light airy donut a la Krispy Kreme (lameeee). So thats why I am trying to represent all opinions here in my reviews. We were headed there when they were closing the dining room apparently (the drive thru is 24 hours though), but the nice lady allowed us to come inside, we had a rather large group with us. THE BUTTERMILK donut is amazing!! TOTALLY worth the late night trip!!! These donuts taste fresh, delicious, and the customer service was so great when we were there that night. This place is the best donut place I have been to in AZ. No more KKreme or DDonuts (that place is not that good anyway). Just go to Bosa and you will never go to a chain donut shop again. read more

We got these donuts and coffee for our house work day. It was fantastic. I loved the one filled with cream. Definitely get a dozen and one of each.. I cant choose a favorite but getting this for our sunday was the best idea we had... read more

All BoSa's look pretty identical. An older interior (whoever owns these seems to buy older places and keep them that way) and Asian employees just like almost every other BoSa I've been to. Matthew D. is spot on with his remark in that they seem to be out of many things at the same time. How you run out of stuff for doughnuts when it's your only product is beyond me. They sure are tasty though, especially the ones with the pink dough (such as the strawberry, my personal favorite.) Now, if you're looking for a "fancy" doughnut or something out of the ordinary, BoSa may not be the place. No Maple and Bacon flavored doughnut here. They serve soft drinks as well, which I didn't have. read more

Pretty good donuts! I love all the flavor options, the fact that they are open 24 hours, and the friendly service. The original glazed and maple glazed are my favorites. Definitely beats the large chain donut shops in the area (dunkin donuts, etc.). Only wish you could get the donuts hot! read more

Bosa Donuts - Donuts Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

I've been going here for quite sometime for a little sweet treat. I love their apple fritters, yum! Their donuts are fantastic! The boba isn't so great though, it's just a bit too chalk tasting (They do use powder) and the boba was really mushy (I know how boba is supposed to be, I've had a lot from numerous places), so I haven't purchased their boba drinks since then. My last visit wasn't so great.. I had found a hair in my donut! Not stuck in the glaze but the batter! (Do they even wear hair nets?) I was lucky that I was eating the donut by breaking off pieces. I don't think I'll be visiting again. read more

This place use to be right on about a year ago. But since then I've tried 3 times and all 3 have failed miserably. About 8 months ago I waited in line because the speaker outside don't work. So I get to the window to find they don't have any Ham and cheese croissant. Ok one fail and waste of my time. 4 months later I try again and had to wait to get to the window to find out the system was done. Fail 2. So today I try for the very last time, one person at the window as I'm driving up. So I pull behind him and I wait for an easy 10 minutes. Thank God everyone knows this place sucks because not one person behind me. I backed all the way out and left. I was going to buy donuts for my work instead I clocked in three minutes late I work less than a block away from there it was ridiculous I will never go back I don't think anybody should go back they need to close that establishment until it gets fixed right and get people better willing to work and nicer. read more

I've had good donuts in the past at this location. About a year ago, I didn't like my apple fritter which is why I hadn't gone back. I thought I'd give it another try today and was very disappointed. My apple fritter tasted like it was fried in rancid oil and it wasn't soft and gooey like they used to be. I just feel that the quality went way down. I'm sorry to say that I am extremely disappointed. That will be the last time I go there. 1 time maybe a fluke. A year later and still bad... obviously issues with quality. read more

Fresh tasty donuts at any hour, and awesome boba slushes; easily one of the best snack places in town...

I love donuts. I seriously love donuts and Bosa makes some of the best donuts around. We usually stop in late-night and ask for whatever is warm and fresh. The owner is usually baking after 11pm. I love their old-fashioned style donuts with chocolate frosting, maple frosting, or crumb topping. Hubby loves the fritters. I'm not too much of a fan of the cream filled style, but do enjoy the jelly filled. If you go at in-between hours or middle of the day, your donut may feel a little stale, but still very tasty. Late-night ... use the drive-thru. They're open 24 hours a day for your donut dining pleasure. Yum. read more

I made a quick run through bosa to pick up some donuts for breakfast. I went through the drive through and there was a sign that said to pull up to the window to order. I was still narrowing down my choices and the woman came over thw speaker and instructed me to pull up to the window to order. I told her that I was still deciding. I pulled up to the window and a woman who was missing part of her front tooth took my order. I ordered a maple glazed, blueberry cake and apple pie filled. The blueberry cake was overly sweet and had artificial blueberry flavoring. The maple glazed was sweet but without much maple flavor. The apple pie seemed tasty but I didnt have a chance to taste it because my brother ate it. I know they are well known for their donuts and I've always liked their glazed. I think I'll stick to the regular glazed. read more

I only wish there was a number less to give them. When we entered Bosa we needed to use the restroom so first the women's was not in service so my husband went to go into the men's restroom and there was feces everywhere it was totally disgusting. Now for the donuts we always go the Bosa in Ahwatukee and I mean from the first time we walked in we were hooked. We have never had a bad donut we take them home and the next day they were fresher then the ones at the Bosa on Southern. These Bosa donuts were far from fresh the old fashion fell apart and the donut holes were hard. The service could of been better if the young girl behind the counter could of stayed off her phone. I would recommend if you want a GOOD donut go the Ahwatukee they are amazing. read more

Friendly service and a great selection. If you crave glazed or frosted, sprinkles or cream, yeast or old fashioned, this place has the right stuff. Best donuts around. Nuff said. read more

Best donuts I've had in a long while. Service could be a bit snappier at the drive through, and the interior is still mid-90's TacoBell chic, so only 4 stars...but hey, good donut! OM NOM NOM NOM. read more

Bosa has become my new guilty pleasure. I have to make it stop before someone hast to crane me out of my apartment. The glazed buttermilk donuts are easily my favorite. They look like tiny loaves of bread. They're really dense, and sweet on the outside, with a more tame, cakelike interior. Yummy. And, c'mon, 24 hour drive though? That's dangerous. You can also get a bag of day old donuts inside for some insanely discounted price. I have yet to try this for fear that I will eat all of the donuts in one sitting. The employees at this place are always friendly too. On more than one occasion, we will find that they have given us a free donut or two. Yummy! read more

I've given this place a few chances now and I don't understand the fuss. The donuts are always heavy and stale. No more wasting my cheat day calories here. It's worth the extra gas to find a KK, where I know the sugar loaded pastries will melt in my mouth the way a good donut should. read more

Bosa Donuts - Donuts Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

I've been visiting Bosa for years now, and I must say they do rival title for the best in the city. Taste very from time to time and cravings call for variety; Bosa hits all the marks. I am disappointed there aren't any chocolate filled varieties, that's probably in my favor, so never trust a good taste bud if you're watching your waistline. read more

See all

Love it they always have good specials like 1/2 doz for free when you purchase a dozen

The best donuts I think I've ever had. The iced coffee was good too. For melt in your mouth, delicious donuts, you've got to try them from BoSa. read more

Unfortunately, I like this place. I don't need it but I like this place. I shouldn't have it but I like this place. I can't have it but I like this place. I will probably have a massive coronary because of it but I like this place. This will kill me, but I like this place. So then why not five stars? Because I grew up on Dunkin Donuts. It's been a looong time since I've had one so don't know what DDs are like today. But DDs used to have a double portion of filling inside their donuts. With the first bite you got a good mouthful of filling and with the next you got the same. with Bosa you get only one good bite, the next will be the leftover. But the taste is still very, very good. I think I will go back to - this place! read more

I still do like Bosa, unfortunately it was a huge part of my life last year. Sometimes they have your first choice, usually your second... Sometimes you breeze right through the order process and others you do not. TIGER TAILS are a ridiculously large, delicious chocolate pecan formula that tend to sell out before noon each day. Or the Old Fashion and Apple Fritters simply make all other doughnut places feel lacking. I would advise going in with a game plan however, here are a few pointers: -Do not expect them to have everything on the menu -Ask for only a little ice in the iced coffee -Try to avoid tampering with your final order -Be ready to pay a lot, for a lot read more

Always such good quality donuts and great fast service! Always love to come here when i have a huge donut craving!

I tried the jalapeño, cheese and ham croissant which was amazing , definitely coming back when I'm in Phoenix.

Okay donuts, but they never have much selection. Latest visit: Drove through at noon on Sunday. No Boston cream. No maple bar. The lady was then apparently tired of me, probably because she could see I had a coupon, and stopped making eye contact and left the drive through window to go make coffee or refill a container of supplies. I watched her and waited for a while for her to come back and help me and she didn't so I left. I will go elsewhere next time. read more

Just went in to buy a Taro 16oz smoothie ($3.69) with Boba ($0.50)... I was rung up with a total of $4.96... I get taxes, but at most it should be $4.52... I questioned the person working and she said that the owner raised the prices... Well then, the owner should make it known that there is a price change on their menu... BUYER BE AWARE what they charge you here... Not very good business practice at this location... read more

So, I was at this location on Saturday and placed an order and got the wrong donut. So , I go back today to get donuts for the grandkids and I order the same thing I wanted on Saturday and asked her to please make sure I get the correct one because I received the wrong donut. The young lady in the drive thru window was surprisingly rude! She came back with a smart ass remark.There is no level of Customer Service at all. The donut holes I ordered didn't even look fresh or taste fresh. Beyong HORRIBLE Experience!! read more

Asked for glazed they are out. So I get apple. Walk out and notice they gave bear claw. So I go in as they bring out glazed. Really you didn't know the glazed was coming in 60 seconds. And just rude. Why be in service business and give customers attitude. I will say the donuts are fresh but I say this all the time if you just don't care how sanitary is the food your serving. read more

I have have been going to Bosa off and on since they opened. Have a bad experience and stop for a while. Then I tell myself " It's right down the street why not " then disappointment again. 1. Went in on a Fri at 630AM for their special curler donuts, that they ONLY do on Fri. Sure enough nothing was prepared. Was informed it would take another 30 min to finish the donuts. Noticeable very, very, very irritated I ordered 2 other donuts instead. Was planning on a dozen, but had to settle for what they had. Well staff made sure to charge me a credit card fee due to my purchase being under $ 5.00. When you don't have what you advertise, you might want to waive the .50 fee. Or you will really piss off that customer. Common sense. 2. Customer service is horrible. See #1. 3. When I get home I have never received the correct dozen donuts I ordered. I don't understand it ???? I'm perplexed ??? I don't think it's anything personal. I just never get the correct dozen. They close the box, I pay and go home. Surprise. The donuts are OK nothing great and not bad they are donuts. They are convenient and close, but I must remember to pass on Bosa Donuts. read more

The best donut shop in Arizona. Hands down.

Poor customer service and yellow water. My friend ordered a tea drink that was nasty and she asked if she can get something else and the lady said no. I asked for water and it was a slight tint of yellow. We walked out of there never to go back. Word of mouth stay away from this place go to another bosa. read more

Delicious donuts, awkward place. To quickly break this down, the donuts are four, maybe even five star worthy, but the inside is just cold and boring and sometimes there are shady people sitting around staring at you... BUT, the owners are awesome and kind and there's always the drive thru. I really won't get my donuts anywhere else nowadays. If you want to go to donut heaven, pop a glazed in the microwave for a few seconds... you're welcome. read more

Last night we stopped in to Bosa Donuts on McClintock and Southern, the girl who helped us behind the counter was less interested in helping us for the 2.5 minutes and more concerned with ending her shift. We asked if they had any more glazed donuts and she said no. After we told her what we did wanted and walked out, we discovered that she gave us the wrong ones so we went back inside...which she overcharged us but that is another story...when we went back guess what they had! GLAZED DONUTS that were fresh and just put in the display. Needless to say this girl was lazy and had doesn't care about customers. The donuts we did eat were pretty decent but still disappointed and probably won't go back...at least not to this location. read more

What's there bad to say? It's delicious donuts! The selection is plentiful, though I was expecting to see more varieties. No french crueler :( They have a lot of cake-ish type donuts. I sampled quite a few of the options available, and all were great, but my absolute favorite, and what I think was the best overall, was the glazed buttermilk!! Oh goodness, it was so moist and tender crumb and just perfect! Of the other varieties I tried, I enjoyed the maple bar, the powdered jelly donut, and the apple fritter was awesome. The chocolate glazed cake donut tasted a little odd, and the blueberry cake donut was just okay. I would definitely come back, especially since its right across the street! :P Delicious donuts, but the workers kinda rush ya! read more

I love these donuts. Ive tried donuts from several different places and none of them can meausre up to Bosa. They are also open 24/7 which is a major plus! They cook the donuts in the middle of the night so if you can make it in right after 4am youre gonna get tue freshest. The cherry and apple fritters are my favorite. read more

My husband called me from work one day after a coworker had brought in several dozen bosa donuts and he said, "I've just had the best donuts I've ever eaten". Me, being a pastry lover, had to give it a try. We went early one morning and got one of every donut they had, they were awesome! The place is a little hole in the wall and had I not been told to go, I probably would have never gone in. The donuts were soft and fresh, the cinnamon crumble one was my favorite, and they were also reasonably priced. We live in ahwatukee so it's a little out of our way, but we will definitely be coming here again! read more

Not busy for a morning donut spot but service was lackluster. The girl at the counter was clearly not in a good mood today. She had no clue what donuts were what and when I asked for a Diet Coke, she gave me Coke ! Mortal sin. read more
