Got some donuts from them that had been overcooked. they reimbursed me which i appreciated. i'll try again another time, they clearly use good ingredients - the chocolate was very good and the jelly filling was great. it's nice they stand by their product. read more

Colorful, rich donuts. Variety of flavors. The cafe mocha is soso. If you want real donuts, i. e. Boston Creme, then this is the place to grab one when in Boston if you have at least 40 bucks to spend for a dozen. Btw they have that maple donut with bacon but too scared to try. Tiny place yet tidy. read more

The donuts are light as air and probably the best you will ever find! The place is small but it wasn't crowded at all when I went (11am on a Sunday in June) though perhaps that is because the college students are all at gone for the summer. read more

Union Square Donuts - Coconut donut & iced coffee... yum! - Donuts Near Me - Brookline, Massachusetts

The vegan Belgian chocolate donut is a dream. I love trying their rotating flavors but this is my solid go to!

The brown butter hazelnut crunch donut is delicious. one of the better donuts I've had. The blueberry filled donut was one of the better filled donuts I've had. The sea salt caramel was the worst donut I've ever had. It was so salty. I get sea salt caramel will have some salt it helps bring out the flavor of the caramel. This one had about 5 times too much salt. It was extremely salty. The rest of the donuts were ok. Boston Cream was ok. Carrot cake was ok. I tried them all. The 2 best are the brown butter crunch on and the blueberry filled. The rest are ok. Avoid the sea salt caramel at all costs. yuck! read more

Their brown butter hazelnut crunch is literally one of the best things ever, especially when it's still warm from the fryer, drool... think butternut, but 100X better. Must get. (Their other flavors are solid as well, based on my years of experience with them- Maple Bacon is always a crowd favorite in particular.) But be warned: these bad boys don't keep well, so don't expect to stock up and partake later, because they just won't be as good. Tiny spot, expect lines and no seats. Bonus though: they have not only cold brew, but also nitro cold brew. read more

I love donuts but these hurt my jaw. They must let the yeast go crazy because they're so chewy. I don't get the hype. I tried the first time at haymarket and thought it was subpar because it wasn't direct from the bakery. Tried the glazed again from the Brookline shop and no luck. The Vietnamese coffee had better flavor so I ate the frosting and left the donut intact (to toss). Only issue is that as a Vietnamese person, I don't think it actually tasted like coffee or even close to ca phe. I've never thrown away a donut before and sadly, now I have. For the price you're better off just going to Twin donuts (nearby). At least at Twin Donuts you're not overpaying for donuts and they taste decent. If you want an upscale donut try Blackbird or Kane's. read more

Donuts are expensive and they never make enough. They close at 2pm. Used to go here every so often for 1 donut but since their stock is so low all the time I dont even bother , best things are sold out already before 10am. read more

Best donuts I've ever had. I've gotten the maple bacon, hazelnut, boubon caramel, vanilla, and Belgian chocolate donuts from here. All are amazing! read more

Their donuts are good, but there are 2 major setbacks: 1. They do not plan to have enough donuts every day. Many types are sold out at 11 - they can go around and say they have really high demand, but eventually the demand will drop to accommodate their bad planning. Only some people can handle going there, getting in line, and finding out donuts are sold out again and again and again... 2. I came for donut holes. Got there at 11 and only 2 holes left. Normal price $2 for 6, ripe off price for holes on display $1 for 2. If they can act like they dont care about being fair, they r on my black list. Nuf' said read more

I'm such a sucker for donuts one my favorite donuts they have is maple bacon donuts or the butternut crunch donuts. Both so light and fluffy the price of the donut is a little pricy but it does remain fluffy during the whole day. I recommend checking the brookline locations at 7am you can start smelling the fresh s donut being made. read more

1 Word is enuff... AMAZING ~!! The Best Donut Ever !! read more

Bacon and caramel go hand in hand...Boston is turning into quite the gourmet central I must say. This is absolutely amazing. I remember loving Twin Donuts but this has such a hipster feel to it that the mommy in me is absolutely feeling young again! I must say that they should spruce up the coffee a bit though...they really need to match these heavenly donuts. Even though I would never dunk them in the coffee, they're just too good for that. Go there! - S read more

Good donuts and great people! Worked here for awhile and would definitely recommend it. It's a great place to work part time if you're a student and everyone was very friendly and supportive. Plus, you get tons of free donuts, and the tips during the summer are very good. I'm probably biased but I think the donuts are better than blackbirds. read more

Oh my god !!!!!!! I live for these donuts !!!! They are very fluffy, yeasty and honestly just perfect. A must have ! I will eat their donut every day if I could afford to ! read more

Recently visited this location while I was in Boston, and it quickly became one of m favorite vegan donut spots of all time. The vegan donuts change day to day, but they are always delicious. I even went back a second time during my stay because they were so good! The inside of the shop is cute and welcoming, and the staff is very kind and eager to help. I highly recommend this location to anyone who wants good donuts - vegan or not! read more

I came here looking for the Belgian choc and Boston cream donuts but they were sold out. So I had the toasted coconut instead which was delicious. The donut texture was soft and moist and the coconut was great ! I wish I had time to come Back again. Cosy atmosphere and friendly staff. read more

So happy that union square donut is now in Brookline. We came here at 11am on Sunday and the line was already almost out of the shop but moved quickly. The vegan donuts and margarita were out but I believe they made it again if you were willing to come back in an hour or so. This was the first time I had warm donut from union and it was another experiences. I prefer to eat when cooler completely for the more chewy texture but warm ones are perfect for the cold!! Will come back sometimes in the future. read more

Stopped by this afternoon, and got two boxes of lovely Christmas themed donuts - all delicious. Highly recommend - their donuts are the best in town, and the service is stellar. read more

This is the third and newest location to open and makes it that much easier to get access to these gems. They're definitely on the pricey side, but well worth the splurge for an every-now-and-then treat or a nice gift to bring to a meal party. This location is adequately sized, line was not too long in the AM, and had enough stock of their flavors. Not sure if they'll run out later in the day as the other two locations tend to. Meter parking is available right outside. read more

Union Square Donuts - Donuts Near Me - Brookline, Massachusetts

Amazing vegan and non vegan donuts!!! Always excited to get donuts from here!! My only complaint, is that I wish there were more vegan options for donuts. I think there's just two options, I get it, it's hard but just wishful thinking read more

Go to the Somerville location! I went there first and fell in love with their boston creme donut--nearly the size of my face, the donut was yeasty and had plenty of creme filling. I was excited to visit this new location but was sadly disappointed. The donut was smaller with less filling and was really greasy and heavy. The donut glistened excessively and you could almost see the grease dripping off the donut as you held it, which is definitely not my preference. I think the Somerville location is the original and would definitely recommend going there instead for the full Union Square Donut experience. The inferior quality of this Coolidge Corner location is reflected in the fact that, even though I went on a Sunday morning, there were very few customers especially compared to Kupel's and other breakfast places along the same street. read more

This place has great customer service but the doughnuts were chewy and stale with the bottom of it being soggy. It was a very hot day today so I understand but the doughnuts flavor was off with a rancid smell and the actual doughnut was almost flat. Maybe this place makes really good doughnuts in another flavor but the strawberry was just gross. There glazed donut holes were good, still chewy but the flavor was better and because of that I might give this place another go. read more

I was craving a donut one day so I went in, ended up ordering a cold brew and a belgian dark chocolate. I stuck around for a bit to savor them but...the donut was really dry. Super disappointing. Haven't been to this location for months now but I love the other one at the public market. Their donuts are so much fresher and fluffier! read more

Just as good as the original shop in Somerville. Go here for the best donuts in MA. Seriously. Don't even read this, just go and get any donut there and have the best day ever. The vegan ones are incredible and so are the non vegan. My fave is vegan cinnamon sugar. Yum. I'm not vegan but I go dairy free when I can and honestly, if all vegan options were this effing tasty, it would be easy to be vegan. read more

As I said about their other location, these goodies are well worth the time to drive to. One bite and you're hooked.

These donuts are probably the best in Massachusetts, they serve special flavors that can only be found in some stores. The donuts that I tried tasted amazing the dough was fluffy but chewy at the same time and the icing was delicious, the filling added so much flavor to the donuts. They are far better than dunkin donuts donuts and are like the krispy kreme of MA. There is little seating inside and the lines can get really long on the weekends. Even though there could be a long wait I would recommend to everyone to go here for donuts at least once! read more

This is one of the best donut places that I have ever been to the donuts were freshly made and super good. I tried the coconut one and it was the best one I've ever tasted. May be a little bit more pricey than Dunkin' Donuts but it is 100% worth it. Also the employees are really nice and it is overall a chill place to get a very yummy snack read more

I was excited to try these donuts based on all the good reviews but after having them I honestly don't understand what all the hype is about. They don't taste like donuts, they taste more like bread with toppings on it. The donut itself has very little flavor or taste. It's just the toppings. The only one I liked somewhat was the apple crisp one but even that still wasn't completely right, and at $45 for a dozen the price is not right at all. Very disappointed. read more

The only reason I am giving them a 3 stars is because of donut availability. The donuts do taste delicious and the staff were very sweet. The only downfall is the availability of the donuts. Please make the donuts available for your late customers that rather have a donut at 3:00 P.M. That's all I have folks. read more

i have visited union square donuts many times. the last time i was there i bought a dozen vegan donuts to share with my boyfriends family which cost over $50. my boyfriend put them on top of my vehicle and without knowing this, i started to drive away and the donuts tragically fell off. of course we understand this was on us, but we were hoping USD would at least give us a gift card since we didn't get to enjoy our donuts. nope! they didn't offer even a percentage off another order. union square donuts does not care about customer satisfaction and will definitely be losing money in the long run for this as we won't be returning. read more

Best donuts in Boston! Every one has unique flavor and personality, while the chewy and warm texture fills your mouth with satisfaction and brightens your day. The coffee from Counter Culture beans also pairs great. read more

Horrible experience. I preorder sufganiyots online the night before and went to pick them up within the first hour of them being open. They didn't have 4 of the donuts that I ordered. No explanation why. They didn't know how to do a refund or provide proof that I was refunded to be card. And the employees didn't know the managers name or have a way to contact a manager. Was looking forward to these all week. Guess the place really isn't worth all the hype! read more

Union Square Donuts - Donuts Near Me - Brookline, Massachusetts

I'm not a big donut fan, but with all the hype, I had to scope it out. Union Square in Harvard is a staple to Boston, so I was pretty pumped when I learned they were to open in my neighborhood. I was headed to a brunch, and decided to spoil everyone with some treats. I was able to get one of each kind. I tried 4 of them (not whole ones.... just bites... I swear) and while they had flavor, the consistency /dough was tough and hard to chew... almost tasting stale... which it wasn't since i had just picked them up and was one of the first ones in there! The flavor options were not that enticing... I wish they had just a plan chocolate glazed or plain glazed donut to wow me at...I think they should focus on mastering the classic styles before branching out. read more

Five-Star donuts, 1 star customer service. I've been customer for a few years. I would be a more frequent customer if they stocked your delicious Vegan Belgian Chocolate donuts consistently. At least 75% of the time, they are out of vegan donuts. When we complained about this this at the store because we drove 20 minutes to get one, we were told that we could call to ask and reserve a donut. Once we tried and nobody picked up, and after we arrived, they were out. After this, I hadn't been in in probably 4 months. Today, because it's Mother's Day, I wanted to get one for my vegan wife. I called to reserve the Vegan Chocolate. The person on the phone gave me a bad attitude and said they had 8 left, but don't reserve donuts and they were really crazy busy. If they are crazy busy, 8 could easily go in the time it would take me to get dressed and get there. I pushed back and said that I was told before that they could hold them. They said "OK" and hung up on me. After coming to get the donut, let's just say they weren't friendly and not even a thank you on the way out the door. The few times I've been to the Union Sq store have been better, but even their, they have run out of vegan donuts. At least they are friendly there. At this point, I think I'm done with Union Donuts. . Yes, they are delicious (although very expensive), but if I can't rely on you to have the product I want and I get a bad attitude for trying to make sure I don't waste 45 minutes of my Sunday, it's just not worth it. read more

Big fan of the cranberry spice donut! Not to sweet but lots of flavor.

My first time here but the donuts are great! They also make a nice espresso (not always easy to find in Boston) and have a nice quiet seating area. It's probably good I don't live in the neighborhood anymore because if I did I'd probably be coming here at least once a week! read more

A great addition to the sweet treat Mecca that is Coolidge corner. I tried the maple bacon donut, which was fluffy and savory. Was hoping for a little more maple sweetness. Also at $3.50 a pop they are definitely an indulgence for the mouth and the wallet read more
