Bristol Doughnut

You know, I really wanted to like this place, especially after Rebel Donut closed. I’m a vegan and I had heard Bristol sells vegan donuts but in 5 visits, it only had vegan options available twice. $4.50 for a plain cake donut and $3.00 for an 8-ounce coffee is a bit pricey for me. Lastly, they overpackage the takeout orders for my taste: they used a large box for 3 donuts; they wanted to use separate plastic clam shells for each single donut. Yes, I can recycle the packaging, but come on! The donuts are tasty but not enough to justify going out of my way to make Bristol my go-to donut shop. I think I’ll start baking my own donuts at home.

I like coming to Bristol Doughnut Company because it’s off my normal daily commute. I usually order an americano with a flavor they have for that month and a doughnut. The staff has always been friendly and answered any questions I had regarding their menu or flavor for the coffee. I’ll be a returning customer.

These donuts are delicious! Not as sweet as most places but it’s an acquired taste. Their purple prickly pear donut was perfection. Their fried donuts are also so good! I was looking forward to the cream filled London fog flavor but the cream wasn’t flavorful enough. I tried this place a second time and this time got the vanilla sweet roll and oh my goodness! A+mazing.

Went to this place for the first time, I got one of almost everything. It was nearly $50 which is quite expensive. Some of the donuts were really good, others seemed very hard and dense. Generally the cinnamon roll kinds were better than all the others. I felt the service was really good though!

Gluten Free Donuts are AMAZING! Great texture, not dry or too dense, and the perfect amount of sweet. Multiple glazes to pick from unlike most GF donut options! I had the coffee glaze and it was great! The staff were super friendly too!! Also, if you want more icing, I’m sure you could ask and it wouldn’t be a problem. I trusted their judgment & think it’s sweet enough with drizzle. :)
