Glazed Doughnut Shop

Been here many times because it’s a popular spot with my college friends — personally, I can’t stand the donuts, they’re far too sweet (even Krispy Kreme seems more restrained) and extremely dense. They have a bunch of flavors, but they all predominantly taste of sugar.
However, if you like your donuts very sweet and dense, I would definitely recommend the place because they’re inexpensive, and I love that the pay workers living wage, not minimum wage. That’s what makes it 4 stars, not 2 for me.

Once you have a donut that is fresh from here, you really are disappointed by anything else. None the less, still great desserts!

My husband is obsessed with doughnuts, and he discovered this gem in November when we moved here from Boston. So when our anniversary popped up I asked the owner about a platter or something fun to surprise my husband with, and she told me they make doughnut cakes. Yes, you read that right, DOUGHNUT CAKES PEOPLE! I even got to pick out all the details. Doughnut variety, filling, toppings, frosting. I got a regular glazed base filled with maple cream, topped with vanilla frosting and bacon. My husband was SO surprised and elated as he adores their doughnuts. The look on his face when he saw that giant doughnut was priceless. Thank you Glazed for going above and beyond my expectations!

So thrilled to find VEGAN donuts close to home!!! They only had a small selection of flavors, but all three were delicious!

Amazing donuts! Tons of creative flavors and options for those with dietary restrictions. Come back after 10pm for a selection of donuts marked down to $ 1

Good doughnuts. But go when they are fresh! Staff is nice for the most part but at times indifferent. To be honest — nothing too special just doughnuts that are better than Dunkin Donuts.

Stale donuts :(I wasn’t looking for perfection, just a step up from a candy bar really would have done it, but no, I should have gone to cvs for a kit kat. Lots of options and all that, late hours. filled with masses of swarming stoner college biddies, not my scene. But whatever I just wanted a donut. Anyway it was gross. Stale. Flavorless other than «SUGAR». Left that film on the inside of my mouth that you get when something is made with really bad ingredients. (and I am not a snob. I like old fashioned old person small town bakeries/​classic donuts even though those are made with like lard or something? Whatever they taste like integrity. Also not a purist, can get down with the new ~donut wave~ of *kooky flavors* or *hibiscus/​ginger/​kale donut* or whatever? I do not care what the donut looks like or if it’s made in a professional manor just give me a GOOD DONUT.) anyway. Wouldn’t recommend it unless you are very, very high.

I’m not from the area so when I paid a visit to Umass Amherst, I went to eat at Judies with some friends. After, they suggested donuts, and I have a big sweet tooth so I couldn’t say no! I’ve never been to a donut shop that has the crazy toppings and stuff before, so it being my first time I wanted everything! the maple bacon bar, omg soooooo good! I wish I got more than one! I ended up getting the salted caramel, cider, French toast, Oreo, maple glazed, triple chocolate, and the maple bacon bar. my favorite was def the maple bacon.

Nothing beats these doughnuts! I would put them up against any artesian doughnut shop around!

Donuts are very much the northeastern thing and this Glazed Doughnut Shop does them up reasonably well. The Elvis is a fresh banana glaze with peanut butter and chocolate icing ribbons on top. Very respectable. We caught them towards the end of the day. It would be nice if they made smaller batches for the AM and PM shifts, as it’s in prime college territory and they can sustain that, plus, I think, with a fresher product in the evening, they may pick up more dessert traffic. The glazes were good but the dough itself was getting a little tired by the end of the day.

People actually like this place? Weird. The donuts look lovely, but they’re really more like cupcakes. Basically, a toothache of frosting or glaze on top of bland lightly fattened flour. Missing the cake-​like toothsomeness and richness of classic donut shop pastries.
Two stars for the actual donuts, one extra star for having good coffee, crazy flavors, and doing day olds as opposed to pawning off stale food as fresh.

If this place was closer I probably would have given it a higher review but with a donut dip less than a five minute walk from my house and this joint 30 mins away, it is hard for me to say it is worth the trip. I love the creativity of the flavors. There are certainly some exciting combos, the chocolate chip cookie dough knocked my socks off, but some of them seemed like more hype than they delivered. However, that wouldn’t stop me from trying all of them because with great risk comes great reward and some of their flavors really deliver. If you’re in the area definitely give them a spin and take a chance… Order something you wouldn’t normally, this is the place to step outside of your comfort zone and potentially experience something phenomenal.

I like Glazed because I’m a supporter of local/​creative donut shops vs. your generic run-​of-​the-​mill doughnut shops that are run by chains (cough DunkinDonuts). The flavors get a little too sugary for me (but they look absolutely amazing) but my kids are in disbelief when they see they can get oreos and chocolate candies ON an already sweet doughnut! The toasted coconut is delish & so are the good old glazed. But Atkins is still the champ for the sugary/​apple cider goodness that it is.

Three words: Maple bacon doughnut.
The nice lady behind the counter recommended the French Toast donut, and it was truly delicious.

Great variety at a reasonable price. Before I started a plant based diet I came here almost weekly for the huge selection. Now that my options are limited, it’s nice to have a place to grab some vegan doughnuts at the end of the week.
My only gripe is the lack of variety with the vegan doughnuts. They’re all great, but I wonder why they don’t do some Oreo or Peanut Butter and Jelly concoctions, or anything else. That’s a very minor qualm though, and I don’t fault them for it, and actually appreciate the options I do have.

Sometimes the basic option is the best… I stopped here while visiting Amherst this past weekend and had a vanilla glazed. It was literally the best I’ve had in my life — even better than, wait for it, Krispy Kreme.
Definitely worth checking out if you’re in the area.

Eh, the donuts are fine. Coffee is good, but that seems to be a requirement in this part of Massachusetts. I guess I don’t see what the big deal is.

Ok, I know everyone else seems to love these doughnuts.
They just don’t do it for me. I’ve been here a few times and every time I want to love them but I just can’t. The doughnut itself is too heavy for me. I prefer the light and fluffy cloud kind of thing and this just feels like a rock in my mouth and especially my stomach. It always leaves a regretful hard lump in my stomach that just doesn’t make me want to go back.
Additionally because it’s a small place the doughnuts aren’t being made fresh as you walk in which is unfortunate. I love walking in to freshly made doughnuts. You have to get here really early to experience that :(.
The prices are great, the selection and variety is vast it just isn’t a great doughnut. It’s ok don’t get me wrong. I’m sure your office would love it if you brought some in… but don’t expect exceptional doughnuts from here.

Heath bar glazed doughnut blew my G-​D face off!
Not the absolute BEST doughnut I’ve EVER had.
But cheese & rice, it was in-​effing-​credible none-​the-​less!
Check out their vegan selection if that’s your thing.
Also, loving the new location.

Killing time while my daughter is at soccer practice. Decided to try the Glazed Donut Shop. Went in at 11… half hour before closing. Lots to choose from but decided on vanilla glazed raspberry swirl, orange glazed, chocolate caramel glazed, maple glazed, chocolate coconut & gluten free maple glazed. Used my incredible self control powers to resist the giant maple glazed, bacon topped concoction… next time after a long run. Was pleasantly surprised to see they brew Esselon coffee which was very good & fresh brewed.
The donuts are very tasty (not like the chemical tasting ones you get at national chains). The glazings were nicely flavored & unique. I would definitely come back to sample more varieties.
The lone worker was very friendly & helpful. It would have been a four star rating but for the following: we ordered a dozen donuts with the last two being gluten free. The worker said she would try to ring it up as a straight dozen but had to call the owner for approval. The owner said no which added $ 3 to our total. No biggie on money but when it’s almost closing & you still have tons of donuts out, wouldn’t you want to do something for the customer to attract them back?
