Honey Dew Donuts

Cheap alternative to the Dunkin’ Donuts that are everywhere in New England, the doughnuts here are 7 cents cheaper and about twice as large. While the drink selection isn’t as extensive as that of a DD the prices per size are up to 20 cents cheaper

I’ve been to many Honeydew’s and most have been a «meh» experience, but this one takes the cake.
The drive through was extremely quick, the guy at the window was wicked nice, my iced cappuccino was perfectly flavored and sweetened, and my raspberry stick was moist and still warm.
My mid-​day snack was met with audible «yums» as I got back onto the highway.
I’m not up this way much, but it’s good to have a place that I can get good coffee when I am.

There are at least two Honey Dew Donuts that are closer to our house than this one, but this HDD is the diggity bomb bomb. I think they make their own donuts at this location as they have the most incredible variety — you gotta love their butternut donut, the vanilla crème-​filled is overloaded with crème goodness, and they usually have a vanilla frosted with what looks like Oreo pieces on top. You can’t get those donuts at the HDDs closer to my house, and this location is so clean you could eat off the floor. Like seriously, the place is always spotless.
I’ll make the drive on the weekend to have some of the best donuts around!

Super friendly staff, great selection of coffee and food, and they carry fat free half and half! Aside from the generally good coffee and service, they always have a milkbone and a smile for my dogs when we come through the drive-​through.

I leave this Honey Dew Donuts location with the same reaction each time.
‘Wow, the staff are amazingly friendly!‘
Rarely does a place exceed expectations in customer service as often as this HD location.
Seriously, I don’t even care if my coffee tastes like crap when I leave. I’m always smiling extra broadly (because when am I not smiling). I hardly remember griping about the poor location of the drive-​thru window, which always leaves a line of cars extending onto Front Street. I can’t blame these people for risking public safety in order to wait in line.
And I kid. The coffee is always delicious! I also enjoy asking each time for the staff member’s suggested flavor. they never steer me wrong!

The other reviewer is correct. A bathroom probably would be nice. As I live about a mile away it’s not an issue for me. This is one of the few coffee places left in this area where the staff is genuinely interested in serving you. They are always polite and pleasant and helpful. I know it’s only a donut shop but there are plenty of places that could take lessons in customer service from the kids who work here.

Aberration.
Travesty.
Perversion.
An act against the laws of nature.
Actually Honey Dew isn’t a bad donut place. It has ample parking and the people working there are always friendly, polite and competent. The coffee and drinky things are always appropriately hot or cold and the obscenely caloric but very tasty pastries are quite good. The counter is small so it’s hard for the donut givers to wait on more than one person at a time but if donut buyers are civilized about things the confining space isn’t usually a problem. A few tables and stools to sit on offer a modicum of comfort. They even have a drive-​though.
But there is one thing missing. An omission as large and as massive as the total gravitational collapse of a star. And about as hard to ignore. An aberration. A travesty. A perversion. A true act against the laws of nature.
This donut place and coffee purveyor doesn’t have a bathroom. Any Honey Dew, D&D, or any place that sells coffee that doesn’t have a crapper just isn’t right. Sure the employees are extremely apologetic and serious when confronted with the dreaded, «where’s the bathroom» question and even give suggestions to find the nearest facilities. But a bathroom is the reason we stop most of the time. Sure we always get coffee or something but these types of places are pit stops on the road to somewhere else. Selling coffee without a offering a bathroom is like having yin without the yang. The ice without the scream. The kitty without the litter. Incomplete and not quite right.
