Blackbird Doughnuts - Watertown
116 Bond Sq, Watertown, MA
Crema's Take
“This Watertown spot pairs genuinely good coffee with a heartfelt hospitality that shows in the small gestures—like the barista offering donuts to delivery workers. Beyond the coffee itself, Blackbird shines for its thoughtfully inclusive pastry program, with about a third of their fluffy donuts crafted vegan-friendly, plus matcha and specialty drinks that make it easy to linger with friends or family over something that suits everyone's tastes.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu. Family friendly.

Amazingly fluffy donuts , so far best one I had was the eggnog donut was spectacular and their vegan variety is great when getting donuts with family that has dietary restrictions
Wow- so bad! So bad that my kids didn't want them. The donuts taste bready and stale while costing triple of the cost of Dunks. The flavors were either too sweet (toffee) or not sweet enough(weirdly, Boston cream- one of the sweetest donuts out there). The service wasn't good…
I just went here for the first time. I’m vegan and there were so many options for donuts! Approximately 1/3 of the donuts are vegan. I also got a matcha. The special flavor available right now is blueberry lavender matcha. I like sweet drinks and this one tastes like cereal…
