If you're used to traditional cake or raised donuts from the likes of Kane's or Donut King or your little local shop, this won't do it for you. They are pricey as well, $4 or more for a donut. There's too much chew on the dough that's used for the filled donuts (Boston Cream etc). Braided twist was a bit lackluster but slightly better than the Boston Cream. Had a latte which was also underwhelming. Better coffee can be found easily nearby, donut availability is a little thin in the area though. Inside is very small with no seating and not many places outside to sit and eat either.
As a donut conneiseur who's tried my fair share of pastries, this shop lives up to the hype! At $42/dozen it should! However the price point is actually reflected in the taste and that is something I have found lacking in some hyped up places (Kanes which was so disappointing). I can't even say I had a favorite for what we tried: cannoli, tiramisu, eggnog, jelly filled and Boston cream. If you twisted my arm I may say eggnog! The Boston cream was definitely the best of it's kind I've ever had. If you're looking for the best donut shop in Boston this is it. This particular location is a bit small and offers no indoor seating just fyi.
In and out spot (no indoor seating) offering unique donuts and pastries as well as coffee.
Kudos to Blackbird on their marketing. We were recently in town and the Beacon Hill location was very close to where we were staying. The donuts on the website were beautiful. Unfortunately, we bought a box to share and they were absolutely terrible. Way too chewy, the glazes were awful, and each one more disappointing than the last. Save your money and go somewhere else. No doubt it will be better than here.
I used to defend Blackbird as good even if they weren’t my favorite donut in town, but no more. I had a maple braid a few days ago, and it was even less maple flavored than Dunks (let alone other places with a comparable price point). Add on an unremarkable texture with a bit too much grease and it’s 1 star for the price for me. I give them a second star for trying some innovative flavors, but I’m not eager to go back.
