This is a great little doughnut shop. It was my first time trying it. The doughnuts are huge, and they specialize in a select variety... so the selection is limited, but the items they have are top-notch.
I just decided to try the vanilla bean cream, brown butter glaze, and the doughnut holes as there are only two of us trying the items. However, the employee helping said the cake doughnuts freeze well, but maybe next time, I'll try that.
My favorite was the brown butter glaze, which is what they are known for, and it was pretty glorious!!! One of those could fill a person up, but we shared that one as my personal choice was the vanilla bean cream. It was good, but I would say the brown butter glaze beat it.
The doughnut holes come in a 6-pack and are $2.25. They are glazed and very delicious... soft, sugary, and melt-in-your-mouth goodness.
The brown butter glaze was perfect, it had a eggy, soft texture for the actual doughnut and the brown butter glaze was not overpowering in sugarness, but it was just an excellent doughnut that I would definitely, 100% come back for!
I don't drink coffee, so I didn't try that. I noticed they let you order ahead and have a counter where you can pick up your items.
The staff was very friendly and helpful in making my decisions... as well as being very knowledgeable.
While reading other reviews of this place, people will drive out of their way to come to Bogart's, and I would say that I agree with that statement. Not only are the doughnuts awe inspiring in size, but they are soft, delicious, and perfect for bringing to work or an event.
I will definitely be coming back... and my suggestion, if you don't drink coffee, is that these doughnuts go great with...
Read moreThese are alright donuts. We tried a few: the chocolate cake donut, the vanilla bean buttercream donut, and the brown butter glazed. We also ordered some donut holes.
The donut itself is made of a brioche dough, but it lacks the signature chew I like in a donut. That is, however, the nature of brioche dough. It's flavorful, but it's a bit weird.
The best tasting donut in my opinion was the brown butter glazed, but the name is a bit misleading since only the top is dipped in a small amount of the glaze. When I hear glazed, I picture the whole donut submerged.
The cake donut was pretty good too, but it had kind of a powdery aftertaste that's hard to describe.
The filled donut is too big. I had to eat half of the donut before I reached the filling.
I still need to try the basic glazed donut, as those are always my favorite. The donut holes we ordered were on the dry side, and they could have used more glaze...
Read moreI had the vanilla bean cold brew, the chocolate cake donut, and the lavender donut. The cold brew had a perfect level of sweetness and was quite delicious. My favorite type of donut in the world is a chocolate cake donut with a clear glaze, and this place definitely does not disappoint! It's not too sweet and has a nice, chocolatey punch! The lavender donut actually has the taste of lavender and was quite lovely. Excellent place, I'll definitely be returning. Especially for the chocolate donuts.
Edit: I forgot to mention as well the price. It's a great price for what you get. I enjoy checking out bakeries in the area and Bogart's is pretty generous with what you pay for. My entire order was about $10 which, again, is pretty good these days. The donuts aren't small either, they are about 1.5x - 2x the size of similar donuts you would get in a grocery store or...
