If you want a fresh donut, Kanes has them . For years I would stop in early before work and get some donuts to bring in to work. Everyone loved them! The honey dip is so good, sweet and light, a must have if you go. If you want to go up several notches in a sweet treat, the frosted donuts are all that. For a chocolate craving, the glazed chocolate cake donut is deeply satisfying. Also their ice coffee is delicious and the hot is tasty too. Service is great, you can choose a dozen donuts and they put it together and package it nice for the ride. The old neon sign outside is a nice blast from the past and there's some nice photos of it posted. read more

Best donuts ever. They are definitely a special treat. I love that they now have a drive thru in Saugus.

Kane's Donuts is changing the gluten free donut game! We had heard amazing things about the gluten free donuts at Kane's and went in with high expectations. Not only did these donuts meet these expectations, they exceeded them! We ordered 4 gluten free donuts to try to get a good feel for the flavor offerings: chocolate, old fashioned, lemon poppyseed, and apple cider. All were excellent, but lemon poppyseed was hands down my favorite. Moist and crispy at the same time, this donut was a perfect balance of tart and sweet. The others were excellent as well, we even took the apple cider donut home and turned it into an apple cider donut sundae with vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce. It was amazing. Overall, this was a great experience and we will happily return again. I've been told that we missed out by not trying the gluten free cinnamon sugar donut, so that's next on my list! read more

Kane's Donuts - Chocolate frosted gluten free donut - Donuts Near Me - Saugus, Massachusetts

If you haven't started a donut club at work yet, you're doing something wrong! How else are you supposed to get through a Friday? Kane's is arguably one of the best donut chains Massachusetts has to offer. These donuts are amazing. They come in a variety of flavors and have cake donuts as well. My personal favorite is the blueberry Maine, it's like a better sugary version of a blueberry muffin. You can never go wrong with a honey dipped glaze if you want to stay on the safe side. I recommend trying their monthly seasonal donuts listed on their website, especially because of all the fall flavors! Have your order ready when you get to the front of the line because it moves quick! It can get crowded in the morning but you can order on line to avoid that! There are good outdoor and indoor seating options, as well as a parking in the back! read more

Great donut great value , XL donuts that you could share for two. I love the lemon filled. read more

You'll find some of the best donuts in eastern Mass at Kane's. I compare them to Voodoo Donuts, they're that good. This location in Saugus on Lincoln Ave is a cute little shop. The handful of times I've been here the service is fast and the line moves quickly. There's a few tables to sit at but the vast majority of people get their donuts to go. I like heading to this location because they have an actual parking lot and the traffic isn't bad near the store. Their donuts are a nice treat on the weekends, especially with a hot cup of coffee. read more

I love this place, great donut selections, decent coffee, decent customer service. I love the size of the ice coffees. Huge. The donuts here are fluffy, delicious , and addictive. The interior is nice and slightly old fashion, but kept up to date. I feel like the older folks usually sit and hang out here and the younger crowds would come order their stuff and go. I'm sad that the pistachio donuts are limited time only because they are my favorite, and it's a must try. I asked for it once, I believe they said they make it around March. Overall, they have a lot of different selections and they are all good. Enjoy! read more

went all the way to Saugus for their Boston cream they had none lemon no sorry your a donut shop with no donuts $3.50 each but don't expect to get any good ones read more

The most creative donut shop that I know. The donuts are so large and like a meal my favorite is chocolate coconut, which you can't find in a lot of donut shops, the coffee cakes of the size of car hubcaps. The quality is exceptional. I highly recommend. read more

Where to begin? There is a reason this has been voted one of the best donut shops in the entire country. Find me a better donut and I'll attempt to have you institutionalized. You crazy son, crazy as a soup sandwich! The only drawback here is that it can get crowded because the ordering counter is kinda small. Standard for a donut shop like a ubiquitous Dunks on every corner of most Mass towns but this place probably does triple the volume of those shops so it would be nice if they were a tad bigger, that's all I am sayin'. Anyway, the good outweighs the bad 100 to 1. If it is crowded on a weekend morning like it usually is when we are there, just take your box outside while basking in the sun, chowing on some Snickers-friggin-donuts! Don't like Snickers, how about Oreo? Or M&M's? It should almost be illegal to feed someone this much sugar before 9 AM but hey.....you're only going to go once or twice a month at most, right? Live a little. I've had naughty dreams about some of these donuts. Most involve heading to Revere Beach after grabbing a quick dozen, taking off my shirt and then instead of using suntan lotion, I break open the box of delicious hoops and begin rubbing them all over my body in an attempt to ward off harmful rays. I then wake up in cold sweats wondering where the hell I am and get upset when I realize I'm in my own bed and not in Kane's back kitchen making this all a reality. Skip the 57,000 calorie coffee "roll" and just pick up the widest variety of doughy nutz this side of Inglewood, CA and Randy's. Follow that up with a short ten mile walk back into Boston to burn off said calories. The end. read more

So delicious!! I had the turtle... which was amazing and totally over the top with Carmel, chocolate sauce and heath bars on top!! My daughters had cookies & cream, glazed and chocolate honey dipped and everyone was thrilled!! Luckily we had a mile walk back to our friends house so burned off some calories!

Still my favorite gluten free donuts ever - of anywhere! We LOVE them! And they're generous with the flavors too! So many options and the most delicious. I'm convinced they have dedicated equipment to make gf donuts that taste that good, in that many flavors, so good every time. Thanks Kane's! Five stars all the livelong day! read more

3.5 stars but rounding up due to the unique and plentiful donut flavors. We got here for donuts around 8am on a Sunday, and there was already a line formed inside. However, the line moves pretty quickly, so we waited less than 10 minutes to get all our donuts. I loved the variety they had available, and it was difficult to narrow it down to only a few selections. I wish we had more people eating them since they had a GIANT coffee roll. In any case, we tried: Iced Coffee ($2.50/Medium) & Maine Blueberry, Creme Brulee, Apple Fritter, Honey Dip, Maple Bacon, Boston Cream ($2/each) [http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=HYBH-XCgKBeVvfmuHvDvJA&userid=76vIFZcC7owykCBjMfGVXg] The iced coffee was pretty good, and you get a giant cup that took me most of the day to finish. For the donuts, my favorite was probably the honey dip (solid glazed donut), then the maine blueberry (good blueberry flavor), apple fritter. The ones that I wasn't the biggest fan of were: maple bacon (I prefer one strip of bacon versus the bits, and the maple frosting was really sweet), boston cream (I just didn't like this for some reason)- skip! The creme brulee was ok, but I didn't love it or hate it. The bruleed topping was unique though. Overall, I would still recommend coming here if you like to try different donut flavors, especially since they have such unique ones. I'm sure if I had more stomach space to keep trying other donuts I would've found something I loved. They also have some baked goods available as well, and I wish I was able to give those a try. Parking was ok at the time since there is street parking available. They also have a few picnic style tables outside if you want to stay and enjoy your donuts there. read more

Kane's Donuts - Iced Coffee ($2.50/Medium) & Maine Blueberry, Creme Brulee, Apple Fritter, Honey Dip, Maple Bacon, Boston Cream ($2/each) - Donuts Near Me - Saugus, Massachusetts

So delicious! I found out about Kane's just a couple of weeks ago and I have been 3 times already! They have all sorts of flavors from honey dipped all the way to snickers or maple bacon (and everything in between). The donuts are large and handmade! My favorites so far have been the honey dipped and the chocolate frosted. I have also had the blueberry, chocolate glazed, butternut, jelly, snickers and maple bacon (I have an apple fritter waiting for me at home...). Yummmmm!!! I have only been to the Saugus location, so I'm not sure what they charge in Boston or the pop-up Chestnut Hill locations. In Saugus, donuts are $2 each. I've seen other reviews where people have complained about this price. Yes, $24 for a dozen donuts does seem pricey, but these are handmade, large, gourmet donuts! This is not Dunkin so please don't compare. People will pay $8 for a slice of cheesecake at a restaurant, but don't want to pay $2 for a gourmet donut? I don't get it. It is totally worth it to me. If you agree, please go and enjoy all of the amazingness!!! read more

Ughhhhhh the OG of the donuts. I love this place! The turtle one is my fave. I also love the fact that they're not open all day.

During our latest visit to Kanes Donuts, my husband and I discovered Kanes Gluten Free Donuts. Neither of us is truly gluten Free but these looked so good they were making my mouth water. When I finally got a chance to bite into my GF honey dipped glazed it melted inside my mouth (This donut was made perfectly the perfect balance of sweet and cakey goodness. If your new to the North shore and craving a sweet treat Kanes is always a good idea! Not sure when they incorporated the GF donuts to the menu but I feel a little less guilty going here more often. My Husband has a mean sweet tooth so when we go here he's literally in heaven. I appreciate Kanes Classics/ simpler donuts. The regular Honey dipped glazed that they make here is tried and true. The coconut donut and cookies and Cream were the other Two donuts we walked out with. My husband Philip enjoyed the rich Chocolate taste of the cookies and cream. This donut is kind of sugar overload in my opinion but he was in love!! Philip really liked the texture that the coconut shavings added to the coconut donut itself were moist and Cakey. were both fans of cakey donuts the ones that crumble in your mouth don't always appeal to us. If you're into the cakey donut too then please please do your mouth a favor and stop into Kanes. read more

Kane's Donuts - Some great options! - Donuts Near Me - Saugus, Massachusetts

Their donuts are delicious; but very expensive. I haven't been to either of their locations in a long time.

There's nothing like a warm, freshly baked glazed donut (or a few) to start your day! Long story short... accidentally ordered 8 of their donuts on Uber Eats and let me tell you... it's not a decision I regret at all! I've never been to the actually store, but heard a lot of great things about this place. They a HUGE, fluffy donuts. So moist and soft, and they really try to give you a bang for your buck, but at $3.25 per donut... price is pretty steep. I'm a bargain hunter at heart and I wish they gave a discount for a 1/2 dozen or full dozen donuts. I guess that just means it's better for the wallet and waistline We tried the honey glazed (can't beat the classic!), jelly filled, Boston Kreme, and chocolate glazed. They were all delicious and was still warm when it was delivered! read more

Huge variety of freshly baked donuts! I've tried a lot of their donuts. FOOD 4.5/5 Maple Bacon Donut - Mix of sweet and savory. Maple frosting was a little to sweet for me, but still delicious. 5/5 Honey Dipped - Perfect texture and sweetness. OVERALL I definitely recommend their donuts! One of my favorites in Greater Boston Area. Don't be afraid to try unique flavors! I've never had a donut from there I didn't like before. Some of my favorites are Creme Brûlée, Key Lime Pie, and Honey Dipped! PARKING They have their own parking lot with plenty of spaces. read more

It was appropriate that the Billy Joel song "just the way you are" was playing on the radio when I pulled into their lot this morning. The one good thing about their expansion store on Route One is that the line here has significantly lessened when waiting for the doors to open first thing in the morning. Everyone who knows donuts knows the best donuts are the ones that they just made and the soft pillowy taste can brighten anyone's disposition. Honestly, there are no disappointments in their lineup (well maybe the gluten-free lineup but I avoid those like I avoid getting seafood at a barbecue joint). So, with a bite of the maple bacon donut in mouth, i want to close by saying, "Don't go changing to try and please me. You never let me down before.. don't imagine you're too familiar and I don't see you anymore ..." read more

These are thic. The good thic! After a week of good eating it was a blessed day for myself and my partner. I picked up half a dozen...#herostatus. They allow you to pick with ease and honestly the size of the donut equals 2 regular sized donuts ($3 a donut). Prices are fair and the line is super quick. Also for coffee they aint bad either. I drink black coffee and theirs was decently strong Worth the trek to Saugus, truly worthy of a weeken ritual. See you next weekend...or tomorrow. read more

Donuts, Coffee rolls. A little Pricey. Usually a tourist destination. Long time Saugus Staple.

Ok back down to a 3... So from the past reviews you can see my years of Loving Kane's and being the place to go... So recently Kane's was profiled on a few shows and has also been expanding as of the past few years & gaining much popularity (THEY DESERVE IT, Rightfully so) And we have this little thing that just happened here in New England. The Super Bowl... So knowing we had to party like every year, I was in charge of the Donuts, so with all the craziness & hype lately I saw a post from Kane's on the book of faces that stated to ORDER AHEAD, So I did that and donuts that they normally have all the time with changes are now only monthly so I asked and was told "Ooh No, we can make you those - the Snickers, thats really all I was pre-ordering for" Its the BF's fave (as noted in other reviews) and he needed to have one - gets them for Every Big Sports thing (whatever its superstition). So I called placed my order, was charged right away mind you... Then Sunday comes and I go to Kane's... and grab my stuff and walk out (as they said NO LINE, NO WAIT, I was able to cut & walk right to front which helped, because the line was out the door) And I notice on the note (see my pics) that It says No Snickers or Reese's, needs others donuts. So I go back & and am told "Ooh we ran out" WEEELLLLLLL Wasn't that the point of me PRE ORDERING?! She said next time you need to call to confirm... so I need to Pre-order, my Pre-order?? Is that what you are telling me?? How can I confirm, I PLACED AN ORDER!!! So I need to call every day to remind them that I placed an order?!?! ... Had it been any other day & any other donut this would have been NO BIG DEAL.. But now the entire party was convinced we lost the Super Bowl because every year we have Snickers Donuts & this year was the exception. Im not so on board with the Superbowl loss theory, Im more mad at the whole event that transpired, and if these were $1 donuts so what right, but no. I paid $29 for a dozen donuts & the few we wanted weren't even in there. I would have rathered someone told me NO you cant order them - then ENSURE me they would be there & then be told "Ooh Sorry they were given away" by the girl who worked there... Bad Business Kane's, so now we might need to find a New Tradition for Sports Events. I heard Cupcakes are all the rage right now, I might have to check some places out! This makes me sad, but if you know me - you know Customer Service & standing by good business is HUGE to me! read more

Okay I remember when Kane's donuts had the biggest and best tasting donuts around ,they made number 2 all over the country in one of those food Network shows. I agreed with them they were fantastic, but things have changed have two new locations. I remember one of the owners on TV showing how they made their glazed donuts better known around Massachusetts they dip them cover the whole thing with glaze top to bottom but not anymore they pour the glaze on top now so the bottom is completely naked as you'll see in the photos I post with this article donuts at $3 a piece and I got a milk with it the whole thing came for two donuts in a glass of milk $9.10 when will the price the coconut donut I got was fantastic I all the donuts at fantastic except the Honey dip they've ruined it by only pouring it on the top it's not as big as it used to be either. Honey dip used to be my favorite there but not anymore hey coconut was the best coconut donut I've ever had read more

Omg. The most delicious donuts on earth. And the place was beautiful and so clean. Loved it read more

Really fresh donuts. Looks like they're baked on site! To my surprise, their breakfast food is really good. Great flavor and size. Croissants are flaky and buttery. I wanted to wait to eat it after I got home but I ate most of it in their parking lot lol. Staff here is nice and came across as really appreciative of business during these Covid times. Make sure to say your order clearly and loudly especially since people are further away and because also you're wearing a mask. I'd give it a higher rating but there were some glaring downsides to my order. 1. Breakfast burrito had a big hole in it and leaked out of the wrapping. Just remake next time. 2. Apple fritter is huge, but also raw on the inside. Center was sticky, stringy and mushy. Not cooked at all and probably not good to eat. I ate around the raw center and the flavor and sweetness was spot on so at least it was tasty. Recommend making these flatter or something so that they cook through. My favorite donuts here are the chocolate cake donut honey dip and the Boston creme. Really good to see the Boston creme is filled up thoroughly so every bite has filling. Would love to come back, even though it was a 50 minute drive! Small parking lot and street parking available. read more

Over rated! I prefer MB donuts. You get more for your money and taste so much better!

Hands down the best doughnuts I've ever had! I'm not kidding; they're that good. Forget doughnut chains like Krispy Kreme, Dunkin, etc., these are baked fresh on premise daily. And boy does it show: so fresh and so sweet! And so many flavors to choose from. This is my weekly diet cheat: once a week, and I can't wait! read more

Yes. The best Boston cream donuts in Boston. They're the size of your face so you should probably pace yourself. The chocolate wonderfully complements the sweet and smooth cream. My wife can't hear the name Kane's now without replying with "f**ck yeah!" read more

There glazed donuts were pretty good but the coconut donut didn't really taste like coconut it tasted like cinnamon.

Great donuts! Make sure you have these huge gems in your budget they are about $4 each or $48 a dozen, no bakers dozen here.

I am addicted to this spot... anytime in Mass, one of the only things i can say has been consistent besides working... 3:30 am runs to Kanes donuts. Their selection is insane and their donuts are beyond fresh. Their staff is always welcoming and polite. I also love their bacon and egg on an english muffin. Can wait till i go up next month...- #givemeajellydonut read more

Great variety. I love the honey-dipped donut! Came here on a Sunday morning at6:30am and there were already some people here sitting chatting and eating. I was gonna get the coffee roll too but the real size is way bigger than the one in pictures. So I got the apple crunch, pumpkin, pistachio, honey dipped,honey jelly and the cider donut . For some reason one of the donuts taste like coconut ; they probably got a wrong one for me. Overall, they were good but nothing super special. I expected a WOW based on the reviews on yelp. I like the dough and variety in union donut more. But if I'm around the Saugus area I probably will return and try out other flavors. read more
