5 MA Doughnut Shops Make List Of Those 'Worth The Drive'

ACROSS MASSACHUSETTS — Five Massachusetts doughnut shops are among Eater Boston's "New England Doughnuts Worth the Drive."

Whether it's classic flavors like cinnamon or chocolate or unusual ones like tres leches and java caramel, these are the doughnuts deemed worthy of travel. The five doughnut makers in Massachusetts on the list are:

• Brothers' Brew Coffee Shop in Rockport
• Ziggy & Sons Donuts in Salem
• Doughnut Homies in Worcester
• Hole in One Bakery & Coffee Shop in Eastham
• Back Door Donuts in Oak Bluffs

Doughnut shops in Connecticut, Maine, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island also made the list. The only question is: how far are you willing to go for the perfect doughnut?

"When planning travel around New England, throw away all thoughts about traffic or car problems," Eater Boston wrote. "Instead, start thinking about all the places to grab doughnuts along the way because — what’s better than a doughnut and iced coffee?

"Whether the trip calls for a dozen potato doughnuts; funky flavors like Earl Grey; or a classic old fashioned; there’s a sweet option available."

The Massachusetts shops on the list range from the "interesting and Instagrammable" Doughnut Homies in Worcester to the "old fashioned dough boys" at Ziggy's & Sons' "unassuming storefront."
