On my way to the Art Gallery of Ontario, I spotted Unholy Donut. Looks like a little hole in the wall type of bakery. Stopped in to see what types of donuts were available. Very small interior, basically for purchasing your donuts and leaving. There were an array of donuts displayed. These donuts have no "holes" and are all filled donuts hence the name "Unholy Donuts" (IDK I'm just guessing) Decided to try out two different flavors: -- Strawberry Cheesecake: Filled with strawberry compote, topped with cheesecake frosting, cheesecake crumbs and a cinnamon sugar base -- Salted Caramel Cheesecake: Filled with salted caramel cheesecake, topped with caramel ganache and pretzel antlers They were not what I was expecting!! The strawberry donut had strawberry compote inside. I initially believed the strawberry cheesecake would have a mixture of strawberry sauce and cheesecake inside. The salted caramel was what I thought the strawberry would be -- cheesecake filled. These donuts were heavy in weight, nicely presented. The taste was wonderful. I would definitely purchase other flavors from Unholy Donuts. However, at $7 (Canadian dollars?!?) per donut, I can't justify purchasing a dozen donuts. It would have to be a special occasion like treats for the office or a birthday. The young lady behind the counter was patient and explained the donuts to me so that I was able to make my decision on which donuts to try. Very friendly and helpful . Next time I'm in Toronto, will definitely drop in to see what other flavors are available.
Ordered via Uber Eats. I would say it probably would be better if I had it at the location. For the price point I would've thought it would be a little bigger. Very saucy which in turn made it very messy to eat. I would probably try it again in person.
Unholy Donuts occupies the ambitious space between artisanal indulgence and accessible treat. The compact Bay Street location offers twenty-four distinctive flavours, each crafted with evident care and presented with photogenic appeal. Freshness is undeniable, and the London Fog variety demonstrates genuine creativity. However, the pricing structure demands consideration--at roughly seven dollars per donut, value perception becomes paramount. Some selections skew excessively sweet, potentially overwhelming more delicate flavour profiles. For the occasional premium indulgence, the establishment delivers; for frequent visits, one must reconcile artisanal aspirations with practical considerations.
Stumbled into Unholy Donuts near Eaton Centre, expecting the usual weekend hustle but found it surprisingly quiet. The store was clean and the display/labeling was easy to navigate. The staff, a cheerful bunch, gave some recommendations. I grabbed 4, and my friend bit into her freshly made Boston cream right away. The filling just thick enough and not too sweet. It wasn't anything to write home about, and the price was a bit high. I must admit, my heart (and wallet) remains loyal to the sufganiyot from uptown bakeries -- a better deal for a better bite.
Last month, after having spent a couple of hours at Atrium on Bay, I was walking up Bay Street to get to my parked car and noticed Unholy Donuts. The name drew me to it. Unholy as in sinful? Count me in! There were four customers in the store ahead of me. I looked at all the donuts. They looked yummy and showed a lot of creativity. The only downside was that there were flies wanting the donuts. It's a good sign that the donuts were yummy, but I didn't want flies regurgitating on a donut that I was about to eat. The donut that caught my attention was Homers loves lemons. Anything with lemons is a must for me to try. I had a nice woman behind the counter take my order. My donut came up to nearly $6. It's on the expensive side. The donuts here are special because they are brioche. I got my donut and thanked her. I headed to my car, sat in it with the air conditioning on, and devoured my donut. This donut had lemon curd it in. It was dreamy and tart. The curd is on the thinner side of the thickness scale. So, when you bite into the donut, the curd will ooze out faster than you think. It was messy and excellent. The brioche dough was yummy. It was soft and chewy. I enjoyed it. It didn't feel heavy. I did find the glaze a bit sweet, but tolerable. It wasn't like I was having a donut an hour. There weren't any places to sit down in this donut place. It's such a tiny space that I can see why. The artwork is cool, though. Other than the fly issue, my donut experience was excellent. I'd return to get more. I dropped by at nearly 8 pm, so the donut selection wasn't extensive. I'd have to return earlier in the day to check out the donut flavours. (368)
Just bought 3 donuts for $20 and this is gotta be the most expensive donuts I've ever bought. They have lots of selection and the donuts looks pretty and instagrammable but quality is not even there and doesn't even tasted fresh. Tried the Ferrero Rocher, Nutella Bomb and Pistachio Crunch and all three lack flavour, and has dense like texture which is akin to a bread. So if you're looking for an airy and light donut, this is not the one for you! Ferrero Rocher Donut - i love chocolate that's why I opted for this donut but was disappointed upon taking my first bite as the flavour doesn't even compliment each other. You can also tell that they're not using quality chocolate as it tasted gritty and greasy. Nutella Bomb - when you have Nutella plus Belgian milk chocolate mousse/ganache and caramelized toasted hazelnut this should be the perfect combination right? Well not with Unholy Donut's Nutella Bomb. There's so much flavour going on this donut that it's competing for flavour dominance and not complimenting each other. Pistachio Crunch - artificial tasting pistachio flavour in the donut and the worse among the 3 donuts I've bought. I don't mind paying more as long as it's good but Unholy Donuts fails in all aspect and not even worth the price.
Lots of gourmet donut flavours! I tried the banana delight flavour, the topping and filling was very good, I could taste the banana in the cream! The donuts are prepared in the morning so make sure you go early for the freshest product. The dough used is rather greasy, my napkin was so oily after I was done. It's a drier pastry, but decently soft. Not my favourite yeast dough, but not bad either. Expensive, was about $8 after tax.
This second location opened on 2023-01-13. The first location opened 2021-12-27. They make 24 flavours of brioche donuts, made fresh each day in-house. It takes 2 days to make brioche donuts. There are 12 regular flavours, 6 with a filling, and 6 without. Then there a special flavours, both with and without filling. The special flavours have interesting/unique combinations of flavours. The special flavours can change daily. The donuts are soft and fluffy, but not too sweet. The only deterrent are the prices, ranging from $3.50 to $5.50, but each donut is larger than regular donuts. Unfortunately the flavours I like tend to be at the higher end! The one is liked were: 1. Nutella Bomb donut ($5.50). Filled with Nutella, topped with Belgium Callebaut milk chocolate mousse & ganache, caramelized toasted hazelnuts. 2. Ferrero Rocher donut ($5.50). Filled with chocolate pastry cream, milk chocolate ganache & mousse. Their donuts must be in demand because when I arrived there early afternoon, over 50% were sold out! The staff are courteous and friendly. There is no free WiFi. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible. There are no customer washrooms. There is linited paid neighbourhood street parking.

Very cool selection. Ended up coming with the creme brulee and it had great texture and flavor. There was an employee constantly making fresh donuts too, which was neat
The donuts look appealing however the one I got (London fog) was a disappointment. The dough itself was soft and bouncy but it lacked that London fog flavour. My friend really enjoyed his donut though
Unholy donuts makes tasty fresh house made artisanal donuts. You can watch the donut assembly in the window. We got the lemon curd w raspberry glaze and a classic boston cream (chocolate glaze and vanilla cream). Both fillings were really good. The glazes were flavourful and not overly sweet.
Yummy yummy! I saw this place as I was walking back to my hotel. As you can see from the pics there are a variety of flavors to puck from, both filled and unfilled. So I decided I'd try one of each. I got a cinnamon sugar one which is unfilled and the Nutella bomb which is filled with Nutella. I personally loved both I liked the consistency of the dough and the ratio of filling inside the Nutella bomb! Nice dessert or breakfast choice.
Awesome after dinner dessert, especially if you like doughnuts like I do. The behind the counter service is excellent. I really love that the doughnut fillings speak for themselves, as there is no glaze. Strawberry Cheesecake was great but really really loved the pistachios. I wanted to try them all but was not allowed by my Wife, oh well next time.
Great for Instagram and Facebook, but that's really where it shines. Unfortunately, the donuts feel way overpriced for the taste and skill involved. Compared with the real artisanal donuts I have tried elsewhere, these don't feel particularly unique. I've ordered the Nutella Bomb, Crème Brûlée , Boston Cream, Strawberry Cheesecake, and the Strawberry Maritour. They all seem to use the same base donut, cut it in half, add a bit of whipped cream and fruit, then switch things up with different glazes or a sprinkle of icing sugar. The result is a lot of "same donut" with a similar texture and overall mouthfeel, just with slightly different flavors. Sadly, I would not go back, simply because when you spend $45 on six donuts, you should expect good individual uniqueness, and I have had better-made treats with far better value for the price elsewhere. read more
There's something tempting about donuts. Unholy Donuts was founded during COVID shutdowns when the dipped donut craze hit the city. At that point, its humble start was inside a midtown restaurant for dessert takeout. Fast forward to now, they have three spots across Toronto including downtown which you can't miss with its colourful baby blue & pink exterior. Inside they specialize in brioche donuts that are all dressed up in a variety of flavours ranging from Nutella bomb to pistachio to Homer's favorite raspberry lemon! On the one hand the donuts are expensive starting around $6, on the other they are quite large and eye-pleasing for a unique treat and a hefty sweet bite at that. We picked up six donuts to go after a meal. This bakeshop demonstrates the power of social media in creating buzz across the neighbourhood. I see they're now up to 24 flavours. Perfect timing and novelty wins in this donut-obsessed city. Skip it or hit it? If you're willing to shell out for treats like BBT, there's no reason not to give artisanal donuts a try at least once. read more

Frankly, I am the last person you should read a review of donuts from. Stop reading now. Go do something more productive. Watch paint dry or listen to Pierre Polievere whine about how much Canada sucks (sad conspiracy theorist that he is) or get a degree in CRT television repairs... because I know nothing about donuts and never eat them. In fact, I am pretty sure the last time I had a donut they were $5 for a baker's dozen or something. I entered Unholy Donuts (cue: evil laughter) because my friend wanted to pick up donuts and on a whim ordered one for myself too. It was almost as if I was telling myself it is about time after not having one for years. This is where I noticed that one donut costs $5 these days! This location used to be the original location of Uncle Tetsu for almost ten years and now that the chain has relocated to more expansive digs across the street Unholy Donuts has moved in and made itself at home. Unholy makes its donuts right there by the window should anyone want to check out the process. I picked a Sprinkle Donut and found it to be supple and fresh. It was not too sweet and it was not tasteless either. It even had a buttery taste. It helps that these donuts are not factory made. Admittedly, for the price, it was a larger donut too. They also had Boston Cream, London Fog, Sugar, Cinnamon and a couple of fruit options. Their donuts looked appealing visually and the store seems clean. The lady behind the counter was friendly, inviting and smiling and was going over the ins and outs of the donuts of the store for us. Cool. One advice for the business: Replace the drawing of the potato with melting pink goo over it that is outside with one of a cute/appealing donut. read more

If you walk to fast you'll miss it! And if it's too good the donut will be gone !!! Whoops! Service was short and sweet in a good way. Go early so you can have first dibs on options. Small nestled bakery. Walk slow on Bay Street or you'll miss it! Matcha donut for the win. read more
A group of friends and I stopped by at Unholy Donuts after walking around downtown for a bit and looking for something small to eat. This was the same place where Uncle Testsu's used to be before they relocated, so we decided to stop by and check out the new shop. Although the store is small, it's very aesthetically pleasing and welcoming. One of my friends decided to get the cheesecake donut (I think), and I bought the matcha latte donut. For each donut, it costs about $5.25- $5.50, so it was a little pricy. The donut just about made up for the price- it was better than Tim Horton's, in my opinion. Although I do wish that the matcha latte had more matcha flavour in it instead of white chocolate, I was still happy with what I got. The customer service was amazing as well, the workers were polite and kind to us. Definitely stopping by in the future again!! read more

One of Toronto's many donut shops! They create and serve gourmet donuts. Their donuts are fluffy and rich in flavour but I wouldn't say I was mind blown or super excited with what they had. The staff were friendly and patient. My overall experience was pleasant! I would come back or buy the donuts as a gift. read more
Donuts were fresh and looks cute but the bueno flavour was too sweet and they're all quite pricey at around $5.25 per donut for the 2 flavours I chose. I tried the strawberry cheesecake and the bueno flavour and both didn't taste exactly like the flavours they were supposed to be. If the match was closer, it would be better. If you're looking for a less sweet flavour, the strawberry cheesecake is not as sweet. read more
