Donuts With A Difference
35 Riverside Ave, Medford, MA
Crema's Take
“This Medford gem delivers genuinely exceptional donuts that strike that elusive balance between light, pillowy texture and restrained sweetness—a rarity that keeps locals raving about favorites like the Boston cream and honey twist. Beyond the standout pastries, it's the old-school donut shop charm and genuinely warm service that make it feel like a genuine neighborhood gathering spot worth the trip, especially if you've been craving that authentic donut shop experience that's harder to find in the Northeast.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. Quick-grab spot. Pastries on the menu. Family friendly.
