Davis Square Hand Crafted Donuts & Bagels
377 Summer St, Medford, MA
Crema's Take
“This Medford spot is beloved for their generously-sized bagels with that coveted soft, pillowy crumb, paired with genuinely excellent donuts that reviewers can't stop raving about. The coffee holds its own alongside the pastries, and their breakfast sandwiches—especially the chorizo egg and cheese—are worth a short wait, though you'll want to order ahead during their busy morning rush. It's the kind of place that brings people back for the quality and variety, with friendly service that makes it feel like a neighborhood staple.”

Really solid bagels and donuts. The bagels are on the softer/breadier side, so if that’s your preference, this is your place. Bagels are large. The thing that stood out to me was the toppings, they don’t mess around. The onion bagel is just pure onion, and I believe the onion topping is homemade. Donut was fluffy frosting was tasty. Eggs were very fresh on our breakfast sandwich. It took a while to get the sandwich because they were so busy, and we think our order was accidentally sidelined. Be ready to wait a bit on a Saturday or Sunday.
I really like this place and want to keep coming back. The donuts are genuinely very good — fresh, a good size, flavorful — same goes for the coffee, bagels, and breakfast sandwiches. However, I have bitten into and found eggshell pieces in my breakfast sandwiches on at least four separate occasions. Once is understandable, twice is frustrating but forgivable, but after the third and fourth time it starts to feel like a quality control issue. It’s disappointing because I enjoy the food, but this has happened enough that I will probably stop ordering unless it’s addressed.
- I was more impressed with the donuts than the bagels. Overall it was a little bit disappointing given the perceived high reviews. Good customer service though - Recommend ordering ahead of time to avoid lines
Had to wait 20 min for my chorizo egg and cheese on a bagel, but it was definitely worth it. My only comment is that how they cut the bagels is absolute chaos. Maybe it's time to sharpen the knife blades? 🤔😆
Breakfast bagels were pretty good loved the different varieties available as far as bagels & donuts. The place was pretty busy but wait time wasn’t too bad. Choice to have egg whites was also another plus, made it easier to pick out exactly what I wanted. Overall pretty good in terms of choices and on the go breakfast sandwich or if you are just in the mood for some donuts they also have plenty.
