This place is a hidden gem. Exterior and interior look dated like from the 90’s but hand down some of the best donuts you’ll find! My favorite’s “Honey Dipped”(Glazed) and Maple. Donuts ready about 30min to 1 hour after they open, worth the wait!

We came for breakfast on a quick trip through town, and it felt like a classic boston spot!

I'll take this place and its high quality, affordable, perfect tasting old school donuts over the overly sweet, unnecessarily complicated, made-for-instagram spots any day! The best in Boston.

Just the right mix of soft and chewy, the maple glazed and sugar twist were excellent. Staff were kind and helpful!

WOW. Photos speak for themselves - fantastic tasting donuts! My personal favourites were; honey dip and Boston crème. The shop opens at 7am but donuts are not ready until 7:45 ish. Would recommend arriving around 7:30 as there is usually a small crowd waiting inside as the donuts are served fresh. 10/10 and the best donuts I’ve had whilst in Massachusetts!

This is quite simply the best donut place I’ve ever visited. And I have visited a lot. Their cake donuts are perfectly crisp on the outside, soft and flavorful on the inside. Their raised donuts melt in your mouth. Donuts with a Difference doesn’t try to distract with wild combinations of toppings or dazzle with the newest donut-like creation. They consistently deliver superb-quality, classic donuts. Truly different from anywhere else.

Absolutely perfect donuts. Im honestly not a huge donut guy and grew up thinking i didnt really like them. When you try a small shop like this that changes everything.

The best old-fashioned donuts I’ve had in the GBA.
Stopped by a few times over the past weekends, and as the rumors suggested, there was always a morning line (clearly popular among the locals).
Their regular donuts? Solid, but about on par with other classic donut shops in the city. What really makes this place special is the old-fashioned. The first time I had their chocolate glazed old-fashioned, I was blown away by the texture—an ultra-thin, crispy outer layer giving way to a pillowy soft inside. Not too sweet, just perfect. Turns out, they take pride in keeping that signature crunch, so they glaze each donut right before putting it on display.
If you’re visiting around opening time, keep in mind that the full selection isn’t ready right away. The old-fashioneds are usually available, but the chocolate glazed and other flavors take 30-45 minutes to roll out. Worth the wait tho.
This place is what donuts should be. Absolutely obsessed.

I love a good powdered donut and a good jelly donut and this place has the best for me. I love having freshly baked donuts through the day and love regularly popping by to try other flavours since their quality is always top notch. Can't stress enough how delicious these are!
