    Reeses' donut.
    R V.

    If Honey Dew was ever supposed to be a proper, predictable donut chain with a rigid chain of command and some sort of consistency between branches, then these dudes have gone completely off the reservation, Col. Kurtz-style. And I mean that as the highest of compliments. Their apple cider donuts are not, in any way, reminiscent of what you'd get at some orchard, but they're still the best expression of an old-school, New England-style old-fashioned honey dew donut I've ever had in a chain store, and nothing like I've ever found at a Honey Dew before. In fact, it's easily better than what you'd find at similar independent donutters -- in particular, I'm thinking of Gail Ann in Belmont and Linda's in Arlington. But, as rad as it was, the cider donut isn't why this place deserves the Kurtz Award. Their Reeses' Peanut Butter donut is absurd. And I don't use that word lightly. It's excessive and joyous in a Voodoo Donuts (in Portland, Oregon) kind of way that beats out even Kane's for sheer wackiness. The donut itself isn't any better than their other raised offerings, but they still get all the credit in the universe for going balls-out. There's enough hypersweetened chocolate filling inside that sucker to frost a medium-sized cat, and the peanut butter-smeared top is coated with what my wife (a legitimate expert on all things Reeses') conservatively estimated to be the crumbled remains of "at least four full-size peanut butter cups."

    The jelly donuts have much more jelly, by far, than Dunkin donuts. Are you listening Dunkin?

    I have visited the Winchester store many times. Muffins are all very good. The issues isn't the…read moremuffins ... The staff there are always nasty and owner must not care. I mention every visit that they should put a name tag in front of each muffin to speed up the ordering... I must waste my time and more importantly their time answering my inquires... what is that one , what is that muffin ? Does that have raisins on it ? Nuts? Dog shit in it? or whatever ? Wtf Or why are out of certain muffins ? Any In the back on racks? Put a sign up displaying a simple check mark of available muffins? One visit the nasty one at Winchester told me they were out yet I saw the muffin on a rack not yet ready to put out front? So this was my first visit to this Wakefield location ... same issues and staff nasty here too but a bit better as more mature employee? I ordered 6 muffins and wanted 2 in a separate box as a gift to someone and the other 4 in a different box...she puts the two in a bag... A bag ruins the gift look, damages frosting in muffins... they will not put any less than muffins in a box? I'll pay for the dam extra box? Or maybe a smart owner would have a small 2 muffin box? Asked for Boston cream ... out of them .. same as last visit to Winchester location where they were out of many options... Maybe if popular statistically ... then you bake more of them based on POS sales data ? Maybe seasonality affects the daily production forecasts? Maybe offer July 4th red white blue muffins, Halloween frosting, Thanksgiving? Christmas ? Then generate greater sales, The owner should hire a better manager of both locations and stick a dam name tag in display case for each muffin, train all employees in hospitality and importance to retain repeat customers? Owner probably now just mailing it in or letting the off spring to take or already took over ? Maybe sell just sell it off to a interested owner looking to expand, or Improve offerings , add high end croissants, pastries, quality cookies ... coffee and better options? Whatever... 4 years telling every visit to just put a f'n name tag in front of each muffin-so I don't need to ask.. especially for gluten free, nut free allergies conscience people... how about an ingredients sign for each muffin ? I give up

    Small space with an even smaller parking lot and nowhere to sit-- possibly because seating would…read moremake the parking even more of a challenge. Nice array of muffins, though not labeled. Good muffins whose calling card for most is a layer of cream filling sandwiched in. -- Blueberry Muffin: Great crispness on the majestic overhang expansive enough to provide shelter from the rain. Nice subtle flavor that doesn't try to trick you with sugar, but it's lacking fat to make it sufficiently moist. Fruit seems frozen. No spheres with burst of juiciness. -- Gingerbread Muffin: More of a pumpkin spice flavor than full gingerbread. Similar characteristics in being a little dry, not being too sweet and having good crunch. The cream layer is a buttercream similar to white cake frosting, with maybe a hint of cream cheese. Good muffins worthy of the rotation, but I'd hesitate to say great. Beautiful to look at, though. Kudos to the team for moving the line efficiently.

    I went to Kane's Donuts on Route 1 in Saugus today specifically because they advertise gluten\-free…read moredonuts\. I had also seen Phil Hates Gluten talk about their gluten\-free donuts, so I thought it would be a good place to try for my daughter, who has celiac disease\. I asked for two gluten\-free donuts\. The man helping me immediately asked, "How many donuts in total do you want?" I told him it didn't really matter because the gluten\-free donuts needed to be kept in a separate bag from the regular donuts\. He asked me AGAIN how many donuts I wanted in total, and his attitude was extremely rude and dismissive\. The other man helping us also had a bad attitude\. The whole interaction made me feel like asking about keeping the gluten\-free items separate was somehow an inconvenience\. Then, while I was standing there, a woman behind me heard our conversation and warned me not to get the gluten\-free donuts if they were for someone with celiac disease\. She told me her sister has celiac and had gotten sick after eating there\. That obviously concerned me, so I looked more closely at the donut case and saw the gluten\-free donuts displayed right next to the regular donuts\. For someone with celiac disease, cross\-contact is a serious concern, and seeing that made me uncomfortable enough that I decided not to take the chance\. I understand that "gluten\-free" does not always mean "celiac\-safe," and I don't expect every bakery to be able to guarantee a completely gluten\-free environment\. But if you are going to advertise gluten\-free donuts, your staff should at least be able to answer questions about cross\-contact respectfully and understand why a customer might ask for them to be packaged separately\. What bothered me most was the attitude\. I wasn't being difficult -- I was simply trying to keep my daughter safe\. A little kindness and understanding would have gone a long way\.
