Kane’s Donuts

The very BEST donuts, muffins. Truly no comparison. Friendly staff and great service.

Was very interested in finding a new donut place with the one in East Boston closing down. Ordered the PBJ, Boston crème pie, Reese’s peanut butter, Lemon jelly, and old fashioned glaze. The PBJ was overwhelmed with jelly, not a good balance. Felt all the donuts were a little more dense than I prefer. Good but nothing great or special.

Donuts are good, but I’ve just made my last stop here. Last month they were $ 18/​dozen, overpriced. Just came out with a dozen, they charged me $ 24! No more discounts for dozens. See ya! Ridiculous…

Their donuts are pretty good. They’re huge so you can easily share. I really like their dulce de leche cronuts!

The best donut spot it the state by far. Every single donut is outta hand good. I’m not a coffee drinker, so I can’t speak to that element. The sizes are a little crazy, as one donut is the size of a planet that you might need a map to tackle. If you like old school donuts check it out!

I was at Kanes about a month ago paid $ 18 for a dozen donuts I thought that was kind of high but now they’ve outdone themselves by charging two dollars a doughnut a dozen donuts just cost me $ 24 if the place wasn’t crowded I would’ve walked out and not paid for them I have been going there for at least 25 years now today’s the last day I will ever go there what a rip off

Holy doughnuts, this place is a gem.
Just looks like a good old fashioned doughnut shop, but what’s behind the counter is anything but ordinary.
Since it was my first time, it took me awhile to even decide what I was going to try. I just stood there marveling at the selection. Coconut, maple bacon, butternut, Snickers, cookies and cream, Devil Dog… what’s a dough boy to do?! Well, I’ll tell ya what I did: I grabbed a honey dipped + coffee to stay and picked out a half dozen for the road (hey, it was a long trip.)
After a nice chat with Mr. Delios, he gave me a firm handshake and sincerely thanked me for my business, which made me feel great about patronizing this family-​owned establishment.
I’m jealous of anyone who lives nearby.

Always come here & bringing & reffering family and friends, etc.
All staff members are excellent & professional. EXCEPT for the young lady with all the make up & dark hair. She is absolutely rude everytime!
Great variety of donuts & drinks. Wish French Kruellers were available during the week. Yummy!
Great there is a reward program :*)

Peanut Butter & Jelly Donuts from Kane’s may be the best thing I’ve ever had to eat.
Also, the coffee rolls are enough to feed several people and are fabulous for entertaining overnight guests.

Kane’s plain cake donut is lighter than a raised donut at DD. And certainly tastier and twice the size.

Huge coffee roll!!!
My friend brought me to Kane’s Donuts. I was so surprised at the SIZE of coffee roll.
Awesome and kind staff.
I would stop by next time to grab the other donuts.

Finally got a chance to try Kane’s for my coworker/​friends bday!
I got 2 dozen donuts and had the girl pick whatever she wanted. I ended up trying 5 – 6 bites from different donuts, but really loved: Heath bar, glazed raspberry filled, and the Oreo.
Their coffee was also delicious.
Service was quick and friendly.

omg these donuts are so AMAZING. I went to the location in downtown Boston and i’s also great, but the original location has so many OPTIONS AND they’re open on sundays.
But no seriously these donuts are some of the best donuts I’ve ever had. They’re huge, moist, soft and fluffy. The honey dipped donuts have the best glazing on them — so thick, it adds a nice crispiness to the soft donut. The kronut is also dreamy. I got the banana filled kronut with a little chocolate drizzle. The banana custard wasn’t too artificial tasting, the dough was flaky. Like I seriously wish I could go there now and have another donut. They’re not cheap, but they’re definitely not expensive. You pay for quality, and I would gladly pay good money for these donuts.
They have so many options and they’re all so delicious I wish this place was next door cause I want one of these donuts everyday — they are my one a day woman’s vitamin.

Best donuts in the world!
I have had:
PB&J, chocolate, old fashioned, honey dipped, cookies and cream, marble, turtle, snickers, blueberry, raspberry filled, Boston Cream and I’m probably leaving a few out. I crave them every weekend. I love this place. In business since the 1950s — donuts do not get better than this. Oooo and their huge huge coffee roll is to die for!

I haven’t actually been to this establishment but I was lucky enough for someone to bring these beauties into work on National Donut Day last week… my life since has forever been changed.
These are BEASTLY donuts, I mean massive but they are the perfect consistency. The toppings and flavors are creative and fun. I had a small bite of a few different kinds but the classic glazed is out of this world.
I hear the line to get in this place on weekends gets INSANE so plan accordingly for your little slice of heaven.

The donuts are one of a kind here, just a wonderful and fantastic selection. I mean I might just stop buying donuts at dunkin and only buy here now.
They also have a good selection in coffee hot and iced. Worth the drive to come up and try them. You will not leave disappointed. Trust me the fat boy in me says yes.

Since there’s no krispy kremes here in Massachusetts, where else could I go for a delcious glazed donut (originals always best in my opinion)
Drivng the 45+ minutes is worth it for a fluffy honey dip donut paired with coffee and milk, to satisfy the cravings

Oh my god! What did I just eat? So yummy!!!
I tried BOTH the maple bacon donut and the lemon filled. So delicious. I can’t say much more than that. The texture, the taste and the most delicious I’ve had (totally competing with Union Square donuts). I loved them!!! A must try. Totally worth the drive there.

I can’t believe I’ve never been here before!!! This morning as I was covering a news story about a roof collapse on Lincoln Avenue in Saugus from all this snow we’ve had dumped on us, I stumbled upon Kane’s Donuts. When I got up and brushed my knees off, right there in front of my eyes was the largest assortment of plump — yes I used the word plump to describe them — hot and gooey donuts I’ve ever seen. Fresh made too. Remember when all donut shops made them this way? Well Kane’s still does!
I had a hankering for honey dipped, so I went for the Honey Lemon. First bite was like heaven — lemon oozing out from the corners of my mouth.
From Arnold’s lips to mine: «I’ll be back.» Next time it’ll be Crème Brûlée!

Kane’s is situated in a suburb of Boston — in the town of Saugus. Unless you have family here, you’re probably not going to come to Saugus for any other reason than Kane’s.
And a good reason it is!
Kane’s is a quaint popular little spot in a little white house that’s been converted into a bakery. The people working there are super friendly and seemingly proud to work there. Most of the people I saw seem to be locals: people having business meetings, old friends meeting up, mother daughter donut runs etc.
We had a half dozen. By accident we ended up with all cake donuts plus a crème brûlée. My fave was the chocolate glazed. Classic, simple, just so good. The blueberry crunch was admittedly poorly executed. Too sweet and not very crunchy. The egg nog donut was good, however it tasted more like bubble gum than egg nog. Whatever.
The crème brûlée was really very good — although no «Cointreau» from Blue Star Donuts in Portland, Oregon. Now THAT’S the best crème brûlée donut in the country.
Anyway I’ll definitely be back — Fam lives around the corner and making a stop at Kane’s is a no brainer! But I’ll pass on the very weak coffee.
PS I was kicking myself I didn’t get in there early enough for a coffee roll or maple bar. Both sold out. And it was only 10 am so get there early! ;)
