Great donuts, questionable food safety practices. I watched an employee stick her bare hand into the paper bag to inflate the bag, and then she proceeded to grab a tissue paper to put donuts into said bag. Her nails were LONG so she really ought to have worn gloves. Yuck. read more

Their donuts always taste fresh and each time I come in, service is always friendly! I especially enjoyed the toffee coffee and their fall selection of donuts like the pumpkin cream cheese. All so yum and never stale! read more

Good option for donuts! I am such a simple gal, always opting for Dunkin Donuts, but my friend convinced to come here after our lunch. She got the "Blackbird" donut and I tried their Cherry Jam. Not bad at all! My friend also got their Cherry limeade which the barista told us was tart on its own, so she sweetened it and it was refreshing. I will come back here and try their cold brew and/or espresso drinks. read more

Was looking forward to trying Blackbird Doughnuts because their doughnuts are so pretty, but they were actually hit or miss. Their fluffier donuts such as the vanilla sugar & kiddie cone were far better than the others. These were airy and fresh. Their smores doughnut had a lot going on but surprisingly didn't taste like much. The Strawberry Sprinkle had some jelly under the glaze that made the entire donut too mushy. In terms of service, there was only one lady running the register and she was very nice. She made our drinks too and I enjoyed the Iced Lavender Matcha a lot. Overall, cool place to try interesting flavors but some definitely could be done better. read more

Really delicious coffee but all the donuts were dry, even on a Sunday morning. Would return for a latte but nothing else!

Donuts were so good. They are better in the morning fresh and they offer mini donuts for 1$ which is great for those that want just a quick bite. Inside is so cute as well. Kinda wished they had more interesting flavors tho but overall pretty good read more

Just enough space to throw up a shingle and open the door. They offer two items; coffee and donuts. All the coffee is made by a barista so there is no such thing as just a cup of coffee. I was looking for a cup of ice coffee of which I was offered two choices; an Americano which is espresso. A little too strong for my taste and then there was a cold brew. I opted for a cold brew. The donuts were gourmet if it is possible to make one. They each looked like a million calories so I just had one. I ended up going with a glazed crawler. It just means I will have to spend some additional time at the gym. Blackbird is in arsenal yards which is relatively new so the store looked brand new. The interior was black that fit the name. The coffee was 5.00 which's raised my eyebrows I can remember the day when 1.00 was considered pricey. I would return. read more

Yum! Yum! Donuts! It's always a treat getting donuts from here! My bf and I have been waiting for this location to open and it finally did! We love coming here on weekend mornings and treating ourselves with yummy donuts and coffee. I really like this location because there is plenty of seating so we don't have to grab our donuts and run! It seems like every time we come they have new flavors and creations to choose from. They have their staple donuts but now every month they have new exciting flavors. This time I tried their honey glaze braid which was very good and their jelly filled mixed berry jam! Yum! Yum! The berry jam was very tasty and not super sweet. We also ordered some coffee and I really like that they can make anything on their menu decaf for my bf. We always have to get a couple of donuts every time we come and we never share! Haha! read more

Blackbird is my go to "fancy donut" spot. The everything bagel donuts are so unique and delicious. I got a back of mini donuts for a holiday party and they were such a great little treat! read more

If you're looking for fresh donuts and have a bit of a sweet tooth, Blackbird's your place. I had never tried them before, so when I saw they opened up in Arsenal Yards I couldn't resist. They offer monthly flavors as well as classic options. I decided to try the Triple Chocolate cake donut and wow...so delicious from the first bite to the last. I also got the Toasted Marshmallow Latte and that was yummy as well. The interior is really classy and they have some tables inside for you to enjoy your treats. They also have merch for sale from cool beanies to this donut journal that I'm tempted to buy next time I'm here. Everyone working there was very friendly and welcoming. Plenty of free parking at this location as well so that's a huge bonus. Will be back to support this Boston based business! read more

Tiramisu Bismarck is my new favorite. Vegan or not-I'm not. Filled nicely and good coffee flavor balances out the sweetness . Chewy brioche is a nice contrast in texture to the oozy filling. read more

This is my first time at this Blackbird location and I was pleasantly surprised at how beautiful the space is. The location in my neighborhood doesn't have any seating, so I found the seating here to be a nice way to enjoy my doughnut fresh. I also ordered one of the seasonally matcha lattes, which had a good amount of sweetness while still maintaining the matcha flavor. read more

donuts are very attractive but under proofed and really chewie not great you cant just be pretty read more

Overpriced doughnuts. I don't see the hype, but happy that it's in Watertown for the sheer reason that there's something besides Dunkin's...

Some of the items are amazing and some fell short. For instance the ham and cheese pastry was not great.. but the tomato pastry was delicious! The iced lattes were very flavorful and strong. read more

We stopped by here to get some treats on Father's Day, and everything was delicious! They didn't have all of the flavors on their menu when we visited, but we didn't really mind because there were still too many interesting doughnuts to choose from. We ended up getting a raspberry marshmallow donut that was good except the frosting filling was a bit sweet for my taste (the kids loved it, though) and a maple bourbon doughnut that was amazing. read more

The staff here are WONDERFUL and have always made my experience there a really great one

Friendly staff , attractive looking donuts , a little pricey . Got the old fashioned chocolate donut but was disappointed by it feeling oily and not very chocolatey .. this may just be an example of a donut I don't love and I'll try another one some time . read more

Great donuts... there is a website to check stick if you have a fav you must have.. It's a world class donut so expect the price but if you want the best it's a small price to pay for the quality! Their creativity only eclipsed by the delicious dough and various fillings! I highly recommend though I find the coffee is often incredibly hot so keep that in mind! The cookie shaped donut London fog Funfetti filled the list is extensive but worth trying them all! read more

I was so excited when we discovered that this location was here! The food is always excellent. Nearby parking garage is very convenient. At the time we were there, I do feel as though they were understaffed as there was only one poor girl manning the counter alone, but it's possible that was a one-off fluke (she was doing an excellent job though!). Indoor bathroom available but very limited seating so be prepared for that. read more
