I thought the donuts taste stale and dry! The girls behind the counter suggested the old donuts!

I ordered a sausage egg and cheese on a plain bagel, Coconut donut filled with a vanilla creme & cinnamon roll, through the drive thru service. The gentleman who took my order was very kind. The food came out in about 5 minutes and I was instantly hit with an amazing smell from the bagel. The bagel sandwich was very big and hot. It tasted delicious and I would easily go back to get another one. The coconut donut was big and very yummy as well, tiny bit dry. The cinnamon roll was very big, but had a chocolate frosting which I was not expecting. Was not a fan of the cinnamon roll. The exterior drive thru area is very outdated and has no menu. They also only accept cash! read more

No frills in and out breakfast spot. Solid BEC sandwich. Not sure they are baking food there directly, but solid enough.

Had a bacon egg and cheese on a croissant with their glazed donut. Fresh and made with real ingredients! Owner is super nice.

Really wanted to like them...unfortunately the donuts were greasy and tasted days old

Coffee tasted burnt and old. The sausage in the sausage egg and cheese bagel I got tasted odd and my stomach hurt all day afterwards. Would not recommend read more

Breakfast sandwich was huge, tasty, and piping hot. Coffee was unremarkable. The donuts were a disappointment. Raised donuts were too heavy in texture. Coconut donut was good, but chocolate cake donut and chocolate frosted donut has zero chocolate flavor. read more

This place is my go to when I am home. I get the Ham egg & cheese on sesame but they have various breakfast sandwiches. I also love getting a strawberry banana smoothie and they always treat their customers so well. This spot is cash only and so worth it. The food stays hot for up to 45 min in the tin foil!! Just a gem location, everyone should go support them. read more

See all

I am tired this morning. And cranky. I spent the night before with Yelpers (and Bigfoot) at an Elite event and, as many of you know, nights with Yelpers never end early. I'm sure it has something to do with the fun and mayhem and WHEEEEEEE.... anyway, so this morning I have to get up early for PT and ::gasp!:: exercise before coffee on less than 5 hours of sleep.... (Oh... AND I have PMS!) Okay, I know, what does all THAT have to do with Honey Dip Donuts... WELLL... here I am in a mood to be a grump all day but I decide a bagel and coffee may help a little so I head towards the so-so best bet in town, Bambini's when I spot Honey Dip on the right out of the corner of my eye. OH YES! I had been meaning to try this place... so I drive around the drive through but then decide it might be better if I just went in. Inside is nothing special... It looks like a donut shop, and it's a little run down. Not messy or anything, it's all very clean. But run down. I'll admit I was surprised about the all-Vietnamese staff (and, presumably, owners). It not the visual you'd associate with a Donut shop but it is a match well made. I place my order slowly (I'm ordering for me and a couple of coworkers) while they run about helping other people. Me: "Wheat Bagel" (No wheat bagels) Them: "Oh! We might have made more, let's look in back for you!" (Out comes wheat bagel). Me: "Chocolate glazed donut" (In the bag!) "Ummm.... Ham, egg, and cheese on a croissant." As that's being made I look around... uh oh... no Visa/MC signs in sight... no swipe machine.... "Uh... are you guys cash only?" CRAP!! Yes, cash only. They are too small a business to deal with credit cards, I am informed, but no worries!! "You pay next time." "Wha?" This has happened only one other time to me, at Vietgrill in Canton, which now leads me to believe that Vietnamese people are the nicest, most trusting folks on the planet. Genetically. And when I'm all done and have my coffee... one of the gentlemen throws in "something sweet" for me, their signature Honey Dip donut. Nice touch! Kindness is really the best marketing tool. When no one was looking, I slipped my only dollar and a "You've Been Yelped" card in the tip jar and then promised to come back soon to pay my new-found debt and spend more money. The service alone makes me inclined to give them five stars, but, as it turns out... so does the food! The donuts were exactly what donuts should be... Crispy on the outside, soft and cakey in the inside. Oh so good. But the real star is the breakfast sandwich. Don't expect what you get at Dunkin. This croissant was made on premises. The ham is sliced. The eggs is grilled to order. And then it's all wrapped in foil to keep it hot. This may be the most delicious Ham, Egg, and Cheese on Croissant I have ever had (and, believe me, it's an old standard, so I've tried a lot.) Lastly, the coffee is New England Coffee... and it tasted fresh brewed and was piping hot. Did I mention that my total bill is $7.90? No wonder they can't afford to take credit cards! Go to Honey Dip. Give them plenty of business. And make sure to bring along some cash. Okay... so I'm still tired. REALLY tired. But I'm a hell of a lot less cranky. read more

Really great place for a breakfast sandwich! Everything is made fresh to order and they wrap it in foil so it stays warm until you get to your destination! The two owners are super friendly too. If you order sandwiches be prepared to wait a little bit because as mentioned everything is made fresh for the sandwich! Also, the blueberry muffins are really good!!! Will try a donut next time! read more

Honey Dip Donuts - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Northborough, Massachusetts

Disclaimer: I can't in good conscience give businesses that do cash only five star reviews, simply because I think a lot of people these days do not carry cash for obvious reasons. Not helping matters is that it really doesn't say anywhere that the place is cash only until you go inside. This is a bit problematic for the drive-thru. That being said, I was sorely tempted to here. My wife and I ordered two breakfast sandwiches a smoothie and a large coffee. I don't drink coffee so I can't speak to its quality, but my wife seem to like it. The orange and mango smoothie I ordered is absolutely delicious. It's not bitter like what you would expect it's actually quite sweet. The breakfast sandwiches were very well cooked and they didn't skimp on the egg or the sausage. So while it's a pain in the butt to have to go and get cash out before getting food here, I have to say that I am very impressed and I will be back. read more

Great food, nice worker, good value, only downside is cash only. Would recommend!!!!!!!

I didn't start going here until last year and I'd go twice a week because it was great! Its delicious!!! Thick bagels, good iced coffee, donuts, and smoothies. Everything is so fresh. Mom and pop breakfast shop and that's what I love. Charlie and his friend are great and so sweet! They memorized my order and I'm sure I'm not the only one they've memorized. They only accept cash but if you don't have any they'll just say to pay next time! So so nice and delicious read more

Honey Dip Donuts - Plain bagel toasted with cream cheese and an iced coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Northborough, Massachusetts

Driving by, looked like a good place for donuts, once inside we were lured to try breakfast sandwiches. Great decision. Two very tasty and uniquely made items provided a much better then expected breakfast. More than a cut above for service and food than the ubiquitous chains. read more

After reading the reviews to this place, I forced my bf to drive me here before work so we could check it out. The shop is very small with only 3-4 tables inside, but there is a drive-thru if you're on your way to work. It's a little outdated inside, but it kind of reminded me of a 70's diner. Two Vietnamese men were running the joint, and both were friendly. I got a breakfast sandwich on a bulkie roll with sausage. My bf got one with bacon on a croissant. He fell in love with his. While mine was very good, the bulkie roll was really just a hamburger bun. I also wish they had more cheese selections because I don't really like American cheese. However, I still thought it was delicious and would love to come back again and try their donuts! read more

Honey Dip Donuts - Yes - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Northborough, Massachusetts

Skip dunks and come here ... coffee is great breakfast sammies are lit and people are friendly. Donuts were practically swallowed whole by the kids. read more

This became my go-to coffee place when I was working in Marlborough. The Dunkins' in the area are always ten cars deep, and the quality . . . mercurial. Honey Dip is so amazingly different. Never a line. The coffee? Same every time. Mild, never bitter, never burnt. Consistency. The donuts are really heavenly and HUGE, and the service is fast, friendly, and second to none. I always got a cheerful "Happy Monday!" or, even better, "Happy Friday!" as appropriate. I really can't say enough about the two brothers who own and run this place. They're so sweet, and as a regular every now and again I'd get a free muffin or donut. Hey, what a reason to become a regular, right? Having since moved away, Honey Dip is one of the places I miss most. Go and get a large iced hazelnut so I can live vicariously...xoxo. read more

The dankest sandwiches I've ever had, put me in food coma just woke up right now having to type this

Walking in, the store is nothing fancy and the service is straightforward. We got the sausage, egg & cheese bagel and the far eastern bagel. We also tried the honey dip donut and had a coffee. The food is freshly made on the spot. The portions are generous and the sandwiches were absolutely delicious. The coffee was super sweet (how he likes it) and the donut was soft and fluffy! I definitely would recommend Honey Dip to anyone craving a good breakfast joint. Tip - it is cash only! read more

The proprietor is friendly, service good & doughnut tasty. However, while I was in college, a customer used to drive me nuts asking for "small coffee 2/3 full". Now I understand why she did that. Coffee cup was overfilled and spilled on my clothes, left mild burns on my person. Even my lips feel burned. Opened car window to dispose of excessive coffee. May only come back for doughnuts in the future. read more

No frills donuts, coffee, and breakfast sandwiches. This is pretty much just Dunkin, but with much better breakfast sandwiches. The coffee isn't good, but it'll do in a pinch. I didn't try the donuts, but they looked like they might be a bit better than Dunkin. read more

A really great place. Fresh and tasty bagels and donuts. Sausage, egg, and cheese bagel sandwich was fresh off the grill. Took a minute or two to cool before actually able to eat. Also excellent value compared to your regular fast food, you're probably gonna spend more money at McDonald's or Wendy's for something worse. Also the owner was really friendly and trusting. I have no reason to rate this lower than 5 stars. read more

Probably the best breakfast bagel sandwich I've ever had. Real Egg. Real Meat. Everything Bagel...Delicious! Sorry, no photo (it's gone). The follow up donut was delightful as well. Would definitely recommend. I fell victim to the cash only clause at the register, but will be returning for sure. read more

After reading great reviews decided to check it out and was a little disappointed. I will say bagel sandwich did live up to the hype but the donuts weren't any better than Dunkins and the coffee was gross. Had somewhat of a soup nazi vibe and very small inside. read more

The owners at Honey Dip truly do make the experience wonderful. I work down the street and figured why not support the local businesses so I went in for breakfast. I ordered a smoothie and a toasted bagel with cream cheese. I didn't realize that it was cash only and was super embarrassed when it came time to pay. The owner told me to come back tomorrow and gave me my food for free! I did indeed come back the next day only to find that he had my bagel and smoothie ready for me! What a nice guy! read more

I love it here! I really love everything about this place. The guys who run it are amazingly nice. Such sweethearts. And the food is fantastic, especially given the price point. I especially like the donuts (sometimes I can't help myself and have two or three and then feel guilty about it the rest of the day) and the breakfast sandwiches. I'm not a coffee person, so I can't speak to that. This place will continue to get my money! read more

So I was jonesing for a donut this morning and il not a Dunkin or Honey Dew fan. I'm used to freshly baked in a donut shop or bakery having lived in the Midwest and on the West Coast. I read the reviews for Honey Dip and thought 'well, it's worth a try.' I am so glad I went!!! The reviews do not lie. This place is awesome and the owners and servers are truly some of the nicest people I've had the pleasure to meet. I had the ham/egg/cheese on the regular bagel. I,too, had to let the sandwich cool a little before I bit in. Super delicious!! I also ordered 3 donuts just to try the different ones intending only to take a couple of bites of each.....I ate all 3!!! I had the chocolate iced, glazed donut and the chocolate iced Boston cream. Unbelievable! All 3 of them! This is going to be a weekend spot for me for sure! read more

Mm mm that's a damn fine donut. Best in the area, in my opinion, without including all the gourmet donuts at other fancy pants restaurants. And their breakfast sandwiches are tasty too. 5 stars for the delicious food, plus the great service and laughs you get from the guys behind the counter. read more

First visit after reading rave revues - very disappointing. Asked for 6 honey dip doughnuts but only four were left at 8:15 am. They did not look fresh but took them anyway. Unfortunately they tasted as stale as they looked. Clerk said, "Four dollars," but when I got back in the car I had only $14 in change from a $20 bill so I actually paid $6. Perhaps this was an honest mistake as I had asked for six doughnuts in the first place but, all in all, it's doubtful I will return. Marilyn W. read more

Useful to have in the area. Not always consistent but always good anyway. Fresh makes everything better.

Fast, friendly service and a delicious giant bagel sandwich. Great tasting sausage and bacon that were not greasy, and fresh eggs. Decent coffee too. read more

Love this breakfast joint! My first time here I didn't have cash on me but the owner said I could pay next time...I have never heard of such a thing until I came here. Plus all the food is made fresh...way better than the rubbery food from the bigger breakfast chains. read more

Seriously... Best breakfast sandwiches I've ever had! They are delicious and the size of your face. Amazing local shop with great Brothers who own it! Best kept secret in metro-west! Go!!! read more

Great local donut shop. First time visit today and was in town for my son's baseball game at the HS up the road. Donuts are good and they sell out early. Owner gave me a muffin as he realized I was a first time customer. Great guy and friendly service you don't see or experience often. read more

I ordered 96 donuts for a work function and they were delicious! We got kinds of honey dips, chocolate frosted, Boston cream, old fashioned, and jelly. I loved the chocolate they use! Joe the co-owner was really helpful by calling me back promptly when I left a message along with making recommendations. He also had everything ready when I got there early yesterday morning and greeted me as if I were an old friend. Thank you very much Joe! read more

So I don't love trying new places at a drive through, when I don't know the menu- but the man taking my order was very patient. I have been on an iced tea kick and didn't see it on the menu but I was informed that they do have it. Bacon, egg, and cheese on a bagel, and I was good to go! Thankfully, I had cash, as it's a cash only establishment. I pulled around to the window and had to wait a few minutes. I was getting irritated, but paid and smiled and went on my way. I was about to dig into the sandwich but I realized it was foil wrapped, which made me exceedingly happy- now I could wait to eat at work! When I arrived and opened my sandwich, I discovered why I had to wait a few minutes. THERE ARE REAL EGGS IN MY SANDWICH. Fried eggs. With yolks. Not a yellow mushy SpongeBob impersonation. And the bacon was actually fried in a pan. It tasted so dang good I couldn't even believe it. Bagel was chewy and massive, and this sandwich was SO worth the three minute wait! The ice tea is delish as well, I think it's a Jasmine tea. I will totally return to Honey Dip to try a donut! Next time I'm going in so that I can see what else they have!!! read more

Honey dip does it right. Great people who run it like a family style joint, and it makes me and my family very happy to see the old school style of customer service! Donuts and side offerings are delicious, will keep coming back here as long as it's open. It's probably a good thing that this isn't closer to home for me or I would be on a total donut diet, lol! read more

New find for us... Ordered 2 smoothies. They actually had fresh fruit and tasted awesome... Also got a chocolate frosted cake donut and was very good read more

I will give this a 5 stars because the food was delicious and donuts were so good if you don't give this a 5 stars I will deport you from america read more
