20 Kilmarnock St, Boston, MA
Crema's Take
“Blackbird Doughnuts in Fenway is a beloved neighborhood spot where the doughnuts are the real draw—think inventive flavors like everything bagel and marshmallow that keep locals returning after years of visits. The staff genuinely seems to love what they do, creating a warm, welcoming atmosphere that makes it equally good for a quick coffee grab or lingering with friends over pastries and conversation.”

Great tasting donuts and amazing staff! Catherine was incredibly sweet and welcoming, and her customer service really stood out. She was friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. Definitely coming back!
I’ve been to Blackbird fairly regularly over the past 8 years, and I don’t think I’ve ever had a bad doughnut at any of their locations. The everything bagel doughnut is my ultimate favorite, and their cold brew is amazing.
I ordered a donut with a small drip coffee. The attendant threw the donut in the bag and it almost toppled over and fell off the counter. And then he was confused about how to make a drip coffee and stared at the machines for like a minute and said uhhh and then gave me a coffee that tasted like watery milk. And the donut was not that good and not made fresh there :( I spent like $7 ish in total and just felt scammed. I wanted to love blackbird doughnut but I’d rather go to Mikes 1000x over ** EDITED TO add I've had coffee with milk before - this coffee tasted very watered down. Either the calibration does not remove human error or is calibrated poorly. I am not sure why a trainee on their first day was left alone operating the shop. And it should be common sense to not throw the food into the bag. Sorry you cannot figure out how to run a business without degrading the quality and insulting your customers...
The friendliest bartista today on this Saturday , the 18th of January. This guy really loves his job and the establishment. So happy to get good vibes when ordering my coffee and donut. Prices are reasonable for quality gourmet and best donut recognition in Boston ma . Parking is difficult but manageable. Smaller location than most and doesn’t carry the full menu . Other than that everything is perfect .
Unique selection of donuts that is hard to beat! We’ve been to Blackbird a number of times and we always order a different flavor donut and we’re never disappointed. This time we ordered the marshmallow coconut and the citrus traditional donut and they were both delicious. My recommendation is to get to the store early in the day before some of the flavors sell out for the day.
