Tried 4 doughnuts: Cranberry Cream Cheese, classes chocolate w/sprinkles, coffee glaze, and spiced stressed. All were really good. The classic chocolate was my favorite- complete nostalgia. The service was perfect. Everyone was friendly and patient, while I tried to decide. And, the restaurant itself was welcoming and adorable. The vibe was perfect for a doughnut and coffee morning! read more

Bristol Doughnut - Chocolate doughnut with bites out of it. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

If you're looking for less sweet, very fancy, homemade doughnuts with natural flavors, look no further. We ordered 6 doughnuts so we could try a bite of each. My son loved the cherry blossom the most. On all of them, the cake part was too heavy with little flavor so he ended up eating the tops only. We also tried the prickly pear which was good but in our opinion, all of their doughnuts are lacking the sweetness you can expect when eating a doughnut for breakfast. We think there needs to be more icing on them since they are all cake based. The salted butter didn't have much flavor, but the chocolate was pretty good. My son liked the maple doughnut also. I really enough my cappuccino, but it was tiny for $4.50. The flavor was really good, and they use Little Bear coffee. The atmosphere inside was clean and inviting. The service was good. Not much chitchat or smiles, but friendly enough. The pricing is very high, but you do get 10% off if you order six. We paid nearly $30 for 6 doughnuts. It's a little too fancy for my son and I, but I know there are plenty of folks that love doughnuts that are more cake based and not as sweet, so enjoy! Cheers! read more

Bristol Doughnut - Half a dozen - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

As between appointments and decided to make a quick stop and grab a coffee and a doughnut and check this place out as I had never been before. The place is open and decorated nicely and everybody was really nice.. that was greeted by Sam the manager who is extremely helpful and let me know about their different donuts, different coffees and they also supplied donuts to other coffee, shops, and stuff throughout the city. I had gotten the regular black coffee and a chai tea. Both were pretty darn good. I want to try something different so I got a doughnut with a coffee glaze and then I also got an apricot thyme donut which surprises me. I like that. Just a touch better than the Coffey one, but both were pretty darn good donuts I have to say.. this is a place. I will definitely make it back again.. read more

Good cortado, okay drip coffee, okay donut (sorry . . . "doughnut") that wasn't much on flavor but was good on form. The doughnut was rather preposterously overpriced ($4.50 for this one), however, for something that was really no better than what one finds in a cake donut from a grocery store (sorry to say it, but it's true - and I _am_ a cake donut fan). But wait - why did I have both a cortado _and_ a drip coffee? Well, coffee drinks are not available in larger than 12-oz. cups - good Lord, who needs that little caffeine? Service was friendly and the room was nice to sit and visit or read, with some outdoor tables that would have been a little too warm this time of year but were still nice to see. Lovely plants indoors, by the way. It was okay. I was disappointed the vaunted doughnut wasn't more impressive and a bit scandalized by what the doughnut actually cost (considering how little it actually impressed - it did NOT live up to the fare). I'm tempted to use the word "ripoff," actually. read more

I hadn't been to Bristol Doughnut in a hot minute, but I have the perfect opportunity to go recently. I was very pleasantly surprised to find out that they're now doing mini bomboloni which is absolutely a great move. I've always really loved their donuts, but they can be very heavy. By doing a mini version of the bomboloni, they've made them way more manageable. I also got the ube matcha and it was solid, I think I would've liked it more iced, but it was cold outside. read more

IMO this place should be 5 stars.. great donuts, not like the typical americanized donuts full of sugar..

I saw the little bus on the side of the street while I was driving and decided to stop by. My first impression was that it was a cute little coffee shop great for studying and working. The baristas were super pleasant and helpful with the menu. They also suggested a couple of donuts to try which I appreciated. Where Bristol let me down was the quality of the drink that I ordered. First off, I ordered a hibiscus latte but received a hibiscus matcha latte. I still decided to drink the matcha latte even though I didn't technically order it. It was not very flavorful and an overall mediocre matcha. The donut was delicious, however. I ordered the lavender donut and it was so good especially when I warmed it up! read more

This an adorable little coffee shop in NE abq. You can't miss the double-decker bus outside. They make their doughnuts from scratch. When you walk in, you can smell the goodness and see all their dough being made and rising. They have a variety of yeast and cake doughuts, with a variety of flavors. They are dog friendly and the staff was awesome! read more

Expensive, but good. I am a yeast doughnut fan rather than cake. This place has more cake doughnuts available. It's good, but again a little on the pricy side. Cute cafe where you can eat inside their shop or outside on the double decker. Enjoy! read more

Treat yourself to aby one of these donuts! You'll absolutely enjoy them. There wasn't one donut I didn't like or that didn't look like it would please a crowd! This is my new favorite spot. The employees were very kind and patient with questions. The chai tea latte was not my favorite as it lacked flavor but the donuts made up for it. Totally worth the price. Support local. read more

This location has the best gluten free cake donuts in the city of Albuquerque. They freeze well and are on the pricey side, a bit expensive.

The service here is always excellent. There's a cool double decker bus parked outside. They offer extremely fresh and hot coffee. Above all else, they have the very best cinnamon rolls in Albuquerque that I have tried. My whole family agrees with me on that. Cinnamon rolls are my favorite doughnut, and I consider myself to be a bit of a snob when it comes to my preferences on them. But, the cinnamon rolls here are impeccable. I highly recommend that you try one! Also, it's a nice place to chill. It's never overly loud inside, and there's nice houseplants throughout...including some for purchase. read more

On the heels of a Saturday morning, run with friends, one of them suggested, we all go to Bristol Doughnut for some well earned breakfast treats. I asked if that was the place with the double Dekker bus, and they said yes, they actually have a brick and mortar location now. Upon arrival, I saw the signature double-decker bus, and a humble storefront. On the inside, and entrepreneurs dream! Walking into their store is part retail, but mostly baking excellence! The menu is simple, coffee, donuts, or something else (see photo). The product, is great! My dad loved donuts and if he were still with us, I'm sure he would give Bristol Doughnuts two thumbs up. I had half of a coffee, donut and a vanilla latte. Based on the product, and ambience, I will give read more

Prices are through the roof, at this place. The raised donut was good, but the cinnamon roll was way too sweet, they covered it in a sugar glaze. Won't be back!! read more

Went here for their gluten free options since a family member is celiac. We decided to eat inside and a couple with a cat sat a few tables away. The cat was sitting on a chair inside the restaurant with the patron. I love animals and choose to leave them at home since there are possible allergies of other patrons and animals are only allowed in certain spaces in food establishments. A person working at the store came from behind the counter and pet the cat and gave it water. When we told the owners cats are not allowed they told us to "shut up." Due to this we left quickly. I will not be back to this establishment and hope that the ownership will take this seriously as this is not allowed in restaurants. https://www.nmrestaurants.org/statutes-for-service-animals-and-pets-in-restaurants/ read more

While it's true I never met a donut I didn't like, I must say I enjoyed Bristol's donuts. I tried the maple and gingerbread. I'm still sugar buzzin. It's great :) There are vegan donuts available. Those weren't out. When I asked about them, the young lady let me know they were on a nearby rack. Maybe ask if there are additional donuts not displayed? There were a few lattes available. I picked peppermint. Yum. There was some merch available. There was enough seating. The store was clean, comfortable and casual. Parking was just a few steps from the front door. Also look at the menu for discounts, like 2 donuts and a drink 10% off. The discount was overlooked at the register but when I pointed it out the transaction was cheerfully corrected. Look for the cute Bristol Donuts Skoolie out front! read more

The donut is sooooo good. The coffee was decent as well. I came to work on my iPad and it was very quiet which was great. But from the looks of it, no outlets and the chairs aren't that comfy so probably not suitable for working. The staff was very nice and friendly. I'd come again to try out their other donuts! read more

Rode our bikes over to check out this cool little spot and it didn't disappoint. The donuts were delightful! Hubby got maple and I tried the seasonal pumpkin pie. His had great flavor just enough maple but not too strong and was a little more hearty and dense. Mine was light and fluffy and just the right amount of pumpkin flavor the whipped cream was a nice little extra touch! Indoor and outdoor seating though outside is limited. Did not try the coffee or other drinks yet so no recommendations there. Will have to go back an try some more. read more

Great little find up in the heights....after last Sunday's snow fall, we decided to head out to Golden Pride for a few BB's and wouldn't ya know it, we happened upon this little donut place...actually, you could smell the donuts from Wyoming....just saying. So, I walked in with the intent of only grabbing one (1) pink donut for my little princess and of course, i walked out with a half dozen. For all the donut shops seemingly popping up in NM, Bristol won't have any issues rising to the top, quickly. It's a wide open design, boasting great views and even better smells! You're immediately greeted by the warm/friendly staff and graciously thanked as you leave. Be sure to lift with your legs as you nab your box of donuts off of the counter.... Enjoy. read more

I was really excited to try these donuts after seeing how unique they were. However, I was a little disappointed with them because they didn't seem very fresh and the majority of them were pretty cold. We ordered around 4-5 different types of donuts and the texture was really dense on the majority of them. I was hoping for a nice fluffy, airy texture on the inside but these didn't have that. I appreciated the creative flavors but I feel like they need to find a better way of storing their donuts. They are sitting out in the open and I feel like this contributes to them not tasting fresh. It's also kind of a far drive outside of the city so I was really hoping that they would be even better for that reason. Definitely pricey for donuts as well. It seems like they have a good reputation but it just didn't do it for me. read more

We were excited to see that Albuquerque has many local options for donuts and wanted to see if we could catch a couple during our visit. Rebel Donut was the first stop. We were greeted warmly upon arrival and the daily selections were clearly marked and well-displayed. My travel companions are the true aficionados, though I am not one to turn down bread and bread-adjacent foods. Being a fan of maple, I selected that one. The others selected salted butter and vanilla confections. I also needed some coffee in my life and ordered a Cold Brew with oat milk (they even had my favorite flavor and brand!). The drink was fantastic! Sadly my donut was a bit underwhelming. While it had a good taste, I didn't really taste any maple. Yet the salted butter was quite excellent--I wish I had gotten that one instead. read more

The flavors aren't very bold or distinct so I usually stick with the prickly pear donut which is typically great. Last time I went the donuts were badly under-proofed: dense and lacking air bubbles, similar to eating iced bread which was disappointing and not typical of them. The customer service is always pretty good and that's a plus. read more

Good food and friendly service. I would like to see a bit more variety or more options but really nothing to complain about.

Time for an update! I finally made it to the new location on Comanche. It's in a shopping center full of little hip shops, clean and welcoming. While the quality of the donuts has remained wonderful, the selection has increased! Who doesn't like choices? Both the cake donuts and soft are equally fabulous. The flavors are still magical. But the real shine for my visit was the service. The friendliest kindest service I've had in a while. Even the true jerk ordering (demanding?) in front of me was provided with far more grace than he deserved. Go check them out if you haven't yet, and go kindly. read more

My favorite doughnut shop in ABQ, hands down! Honestly it might even be the best doughnut shop I've ever been to, period. There are the classics that are always on their menu, but the main star for me is the rotating bomboloni. Every month is a new flavor and they all blow me away with their flavor complexity. Today I went in and had the lemon meringue bomboloni- it was heavenly. Stuffed generously with lemon curd then topped with a marshmallow/meringue creme that is slightly toasted. The flavor of the doughnut itself is fabulous. No matter what type or flavor you choose, it is always light, fluffy and delicious. The coffee is great too. I highly recommend getting a vanilla latte (and if you get 2 doughnuts and a coffee they give you 10% off!). Seriously though, try this place. It blows every single doughnut place out of the water, local and corporations. read more

3.5 stars Bristol gave me a coupon for $5 off for my birthday (which took up the cost of the one donut mentioned below, but I'd rather not look a gift horse in the mouth) and in which I had about 2 months to use the cert. Every time I thought about picking up my donut and checked the website to see what they had, they were always either low stock or out of stock of the donut that I wanted to get (and they didn't offer the one my dad might've liked anymore). Finally, I was able to get my donut (the guy at the counter asked "prickly pear with sprinkles or no sprinkles?" The answer is always sprinkles. The donut was smaller than I remember it being in the past (the bacon one was huge, it's also unfortunate they don't offer that one anymore as it was a big crowd favorite), nonetheless was fluffy, soft, and delicious (hence the extra 1/2 star). I also really liked the bus, I like that they can still park it there, but hopefully covid didn't spell the end for the bus.... But, I will be back for the pumpkin cheesecake. read more

Meh. If you're like me and get really excited about the gluten free options which are also the vegan options, you might want to reign it in. I mistakenly didn't call or check online so the only option was matcha. I guess... I reluctantly ordered it but then there was no matcha glaze for the matcha donut. What? So I ordered prickly pear to try it. Not a good idea. The donut has a strong flavor and the prickly pear is sticky sweet. My partner ordered regular donuts and it just tasted like grease and sticky sweet. So, definitely not something we will be rushing back to. ‍ read more

I went an hour before close but they still had a decent selection of donuts left. Tried the marshmallow pumpkin and vanilla bean. Both were good, although the pumpkin one was slightly dry. I loved the caramelized marshmallow which helped the dryness. The vanilla bean had real flecks of vanilla and the center had extra runny icing which was the best part. The open kitchen concept allows you to check out the cleanliness of the place which looked decent. I may be back to try their coffee drinks next time. A lot of their donut flavors seemed similar so I may try a different donut place next time. Girl at the counter was nice and friendly and it's advertised as woman owned. I took a star off for value because the two donuts with taxes were just under $10, which is pretty steep for some flour and sugar IMO. read more
