After an event at NDB Fitness, I decided to swing by Donna's Donuts for a simple breakfast to hold me over for a bit. So yeah, I ended with 2 muffins, 2 donuts and 1 GIANT donut with sprinkles. I stood in line too long with my friends and knew I wanted that giant donut. Took me a few days, but man, it was delicious and worth every bite! I do need to go back and see what the cheeseburger is all about, though. As for the inside, plenty of sitting like a diner and plenty of parking outside. read more

Always a great treat for the team, and very welcomed, when I hit Donna Donuts. Well worth the diversion off the highway! Amazingly large donuts and coffee rolls, fresh and flavorful! A must stop for a morning meeting or a self indulgent treat! read more

OMG! I honestly have not had a donut this delicious in recent memory. In fact, I had pretty much given up donuts because they all stink and are not worth the money and/or calories and are usually disappointing...until I had a Donna's Donut! I've been hearing about Donna's Donuts for years and now I get the hype. They are just classic, old school deliciousness - huge, so fresh, airy, perfectly glazed, not overly sweet and unlike a chain donut place I will not name that is on pretty much every corner in every town in the commonwealth, it does not leave a nasty film in your mouth from whatever chemical they coat them in. Server was so sweet and helped me make the monumental decision between glazed and coconut! (As a newbie, kept it simple and went glazed; coconut next time.) I don't know you, but I love you Donna and your donuts too read more

So, full disclosure. I really, really had to find a bathroom on the way to my destination in Tewksbury. I got onto Main Street and thought there would be a Dunkin's, but nope. So I saw Donna's Donuts and immediately pulled in as I figured, what the heck, I will buy a donut and then use the bathroom. OHMYGOD, the donuts, the muffins, the everything else there! I ordered a chocolate muffin and a glazed donut, and yes, I used the bathroom. I then got in my car and took out the glazed donut. The thing was like a double donut, melted in my mouth. And the chocolate muffin that I just ate now. I am in muffin Heaven. I will, from now on, on my way to my Tewksbury destination, stop in at Donna's Donuts. I seriously would like to order every single thing in front of me! read more

In the 20+ years I've lived "in the area" today was my 3rd time at Donna's. I'm just not really a donut person, but the craving struck and I love hearing/seeing how a local establishment is consistently making the "best of....." lists. The donuts were HUGE, the coffee was delicious, the service was pleasant. As a fellow reviewer stated, the donut melts in your mouth. It is fresh, light, fluffy, just the right amount of sweetness (I ordered the honey dipped). The consistency was heaven. My complaint, though, is that I could taste the oil/grease in every bite. A bit of a turn-off. read more

The glazed donuts yum !!! Meatball sub the hamburger yum they're so fresh I drive 45 min just to get them !!!!!IM VERY LUCKY

Donna's retro donut shop but it's got new age prices. Mismatched tables, built in 70's table/chairs out front. Nothing has been updated in a long time. I love it! Teenagers working the Saturday morning shift. Working hard. They got me in and out quickly and I ordered 2 breakfast sandwiches. The melted cheese was the win here but I am guessing it was microwaved bacon (not my favorite.) The croissant was a perfect match. My husband got his on a jalapeno cheddar bagel. As for the donuts, pretty simple flavors. I ordered a graham cracker and glazed. Glazed, it's good but not like Gibsons good. The graham cracker is tasted like a munchkin at Dunkin but well made. Cake like donut with a little crunch (I like that.) read more

How was this my first time here?! I gave my nephew a coupon book for Christmas, our January activity was "donuts and hot cocoa." I asked a friend to recommend a place and she emphatically said DONNAS DONUT! First, huge parking lot! Which is perfect! Second, the people behind the counter...AMAZING! They were so kind! We went in wanting strawberry frosted donuts and honestly I dont even know if that was an option...the second we saw the giant donut...we knew it would be ours! The girls behind the counter joked that "the mom never says yes to those!" And that he was the first one to get one today. The place was super old school, how I remember donut places in my childhood. No frills, a couple TVs, clean. And the donut. OH MY GOD. How was it fluffy, but dense, and all kinds of perfect?!! We loved it!!!! We will be back! read more

Very good doughnuts. Would definitely come back when in area. Coffee is below average unfortunately.

Favorite donuts in the area can't go wrong - honey glazed is my favorite. Kind people too.

Talk about delicious! Today I stopped in with the kiddos for some tasty donuts. We do this maybe once a month. I came in around noon and they still had my favorite donut options available. They must have been busy because their shelfs were partially emptied out. I was able to get my hands on the chocolate glazed donut, graham cracker donut, and a cinnamon donut (not in my pictures as it was already gone!). The donuts are flavorful, crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside. My absolute favorite is the graham cracker. The prices are low, the staff members are sweet, and the donuts are too good. Inside is cute with a bunch of seating options, in the case that you can't wait until your car to devour your goodies. They have a drive-thru option and additional parking to the right of their shop, which I needed to use today since people are catching on to this hidden gem. Stop reading and head over (earlier in the day, the better)! read more

I like to stop here when I'm in the area. I had a cinnamon roll recently and it was warm and one of the best ive ever had.

Still the best donuts around, but I don't think I will go out of my way to go any more. They are always short my favorite donuts. I always have to start my dozen with my second or third choice because the most popular options always seem to be gone. I'll have to try heavenly the best time I want to treat the office. read more

Hole in the wall shop with decent donuts. Meatball sub, cheeseburger donut, etc. Enough said. This is worth the trip alone. Dont expect anything more than a fun gimmick. read more

Fluffy soft donuts with a variety of flavors, but not so much variety that you're overwhelmed. Helpful and conversational staff that happily gave me their recommendations. The interior is kind of retro and homey, and that made me so happy. The prices aren't bad either! read more

Used to come here all the time. Prices are ridiculously high, donuts aren't anything special (other than their size), and they have, quite possibly, the absolute worst and most inefficient drive thru of any "drive thru" establishment. 35 minutes in the drive thru line is just not acceptable read more

The best old-style donuts in greater Boston. I live in South Boston and I'm not even a big fan of donuts, but I will make the long (for me lol, 35-50 minutes depending on weekday or weekend) drive to Donna's when I have a craving for a sugar cruller. My family loves Donna's: always super fresh, crunchy on the inside, soft on the inside, tasty all around. read more

Service was pretty good, got attended right away. Food wasn't great at all donuts were probably the worst I've had they were sort of dry and had no flavor at all. The breakfast sandwiches are made with fresh eggs but again No flavor at all. Iced coffee was decent. read more

Donna's Donuts - Bakeries Near Me - Tewksbury, Massachusetts

These donuts are big, full of flavor and often heavy, the way donuts used to be. Unlike that other double-D, the dreaded chain whose catch phrase was "Time to make the donuts" but now means "Time to unload the already-old factory made donuts from the truck," Donna's Donuts cuts and cooks their donuts by hand, on site, in small batches. This ensures fresh product throughout the day and hot product if you're lucky enough to time it right. Honey Dipped: Giant but light, with a bouncy texture that'll stay bouncy and fresh for a couple days, but try to get 'em while they're hot, which is a near guarantee first thing in the morning and a decent possibility (more likely than anywhere else) later in the morning. The coating tends to be melty early on and flaky later on, with a strong sugar component. Raised frosted: Yeast donuts similar to the honey dipped, but with a ring of chocolate instead of the glaze. First thing in the morning that coating is wet and hot (which gets ME wet and hot, but that's another story for another website). Nothing special about the chocolate here other than the freshness. Boston Creme: Another yeast donut with a generous filling of thick, loose vanilla pudding and an equally generous coating of chocolate outside. Another one to get early when it's still wet and a little wobbly. Apple: The unsung hero among the Donna's roster, this is a square donut with chunky, sweet/tart apple filling that tastes a little like a McDonald's apple pie, but has the feel of the soft honey dipped. They come out a little later in the morning than the honey dipped, so this is a smart move. Plain: Donna's is old school, but sometimes you gotta go REALLY old school, and their plain donut does that nicely. This crispy crust with a fluffy interior and a pleasing taste without as much aftertaste as most donuts of this kind. I'm a fan of Donna's, but I'm not gonna lie: their toppings won't match the artisanal donut shops like Union Square and SOME others that are popping up. But the flavor of the underlying donut is second to none (and Union Square's Achilles heel is the underlying donut). Throw in superior execution and a mostly-friendly staff (a few of the weekday folk are an acquired taste), and you've got an easy five-star donut joint and my favorite in greater Boston. These are donuts the way they used to be and the way all donuts ought to be now, so get over there for a take-me-back experience. If you get there early you might just have a religious experience. read more

The service was poor. I just spent 12 minutes waiting in the drive thru behind one car! It was not worth the wait.

I've been stopping in for donuts for yrs everytime I'd get a discount as I'm in the fire services. Today I was told they don't give discounts, they are not consistent. I will not be returning to this place ever again read more

Can not say one thing bad about Donnas donuts. Cinnamon rolls the size of dinner plates Service A+ & well the ambiance is what you'd expect for a bunch of sugar & caffeine junkies waiting for their fix. Smiles, growls & then the skip in their step when that rush hits! You know what I'm talking. About read more

I got to try a few of these donuts the day after they were bought and they were quite delicious. Since I prefer yeasted brioche donuts, the feature flavor with chocolate cream and cocoa Krispies was definitely a win. These donuts are a great size, not too big and the cream wasn't too sweet. The apple donut was filled with sweet apple delight. The butternut and chocolate glazed were denser cake donuts that didn't last as well the day after. I will definitely be going back in the future to try all their other flavors! read more

Highly recommended by a local we were glad to make the half hour drive to a crowded 10-15 minute wait but worth it! Good drive through and plenty of parking in lot next door. Outstanding glazed donuts tasty coating and very light but not like DD. Very good cinnamon roll and chocolate cake donuts and sticks. Not a high-end donut shop but far better than DD perfect for us. Great friendly service too. Good seating of 2 and 4 seaters. Definitely recommended if you're searching for good donuts! read more

Great donuts! Fun and delicious and the staff is friendly, love the shop's 50s vibe. The cheeseburger and meatball donuts are novelty.

~9:30AM on a Saturday, this place was BUSTLING! Lots of patrons inside and a short line. Pros: -Inexpensive -Great service -Dough is super soft/fresh -Apparently they sometimes have Boston Cream donut holes (per the staff person who helped us), which is pretty cool! Cons: -Crowded on weekends -Counter is a little confusing--there's one register on the right and pickup is on the left. We waited a bit on the left thinking those people were in line before realizing. -Glaze is on the sweet side -- $3.36 for 1 donut and 4 donut holes Honey Dip Donut Hole Yeast glazed donut. Very fresh, though glaze is slightly too sweet. Chocolate Honey Dip Donut Hole Chocolate cake donut hole coated in glaze. This was still warm! Crispy outside and soft inside, but the glaze was still slightly too sweet. Boston Cream Suuuper soft & fresh yeast donut filled with vanilla custard and topped with chocolate frosting. The dough had a bit of a crisp to the outside which was addictive! The chocolate frosting was a bit sweet, but overall, this was a great donut! read more

My sister brought me a variety of donuts and I am fairly confident I have now had the best donuts on earth. I've so far sampled the chocolate glazed donut, the chocolate covered, and the jelly stick. Let's talk about freshness. The donuts made a couple hour journey, sat in the car while we took in a hockey game, and still tasted like they were baked in the trunk. Now, about the quality. The chocolate on the donut tasted delicious; flavorful without dominating, the texture was smooth, and it sat on a perfectly fluffy raiser donut. The filling of the jelly stick was also perfectly textured, and it was appropriately the star of the show, but the cake donut around it was perfectly crispy on the outside with an amazingly soft inside. The chocolate cake donut was moist, and broke apart easy enough without being crumbly and falling apart in your hands. The donuts were all also giant in size (there are some National brands that could take some notes, as theirs are embarrassingly small by comparison). While I could've been satisfied by half or a quarter at a time, I've been unable to stop at just that point. So their numbers are dwindling in the box at an alarming rate. Hats off. This is top notch stuff. Old school. The trio of donuts I've had in the last two days are a hat trick. read more

Donna's has the best donuts in town! I think they're a little pricey, particularly for their coffee, but the donuts!

Arrived on a late Sunday morning to a pretty decent line, which moved really quickly! We ordered a half dozen donuts different varieties. They were old school very large and with a few different flavors. I had to share one because of its size. Worth the drive and got a speciality donut for my grandson, the cheeseburger! read more
