Back Door Donuts

Last summer I planned a 20 person trip to the Vineyard. Back Door put together boxed welcome gifts for each of the guests. Everyone loved the donuts. They also made us a birthday cake, which received rave reviews. It was so delicious, I didn't think about taking a photo until after we ate it. Highly recommend.

Simply the best. We have eating here decades but when they started to serve from back door it just gave it that extra something. The warm donuts are great (love their maple bacon) but the reason to come is the Apple Fritters.

Get the true experience after 7pm by grabbing a SNACK donut from the BACK DOOR. Apple Fritter DELICIOUS!

Nice little store with a small section of donuts,fritters and coffee.
The Apple fritters are worth the hype,it was huge and tasted heavenly.
Also had Boston creme donut and it was good.
Service was quick and the all the people working wore masks and gloves.
Definitely stop here for the Apple fritters.

One Apple fritter, a half dozen glazed donuts and a custom chocolate cake with chocolate icing later and it never gets old.

Amazing donuts, Apple fritter is the best in my opinion. The donuts are almost as good.

As far as the cake goes. I personally think there wasn’t enough actual cake and too much icing. Birthday woman thought differently.

You can decide from the picture?

Will be back again. 10/10 would reccomend to a friend.

Edit - back again this year, still amazing

Kaitlyn was phenomenal and super nice. She had great tips about the donuts. She also handled some rowdy rude obnoxiously guys and made us feel safe. I will definitely comeback!

Visited around 9pm on a Wednesday in mid-August. Had to queue for about 20 minutes but I was in a group so it was easy enough to chat and pass the time. Kind of fun as an experience, would probably be a bit of a faff if you were by yourself and just wanted to get some donuts and go. The donuts we tried were all very tasty, decent value for money. Friendly enough service. Worth a visit.

I love everything on their menu. The most fun is waiting in line. When you travel to Martha's Vineyard, this must be on your to do list for one of your evenings. Plus, they have a super cute sweatshirt. Next year I will purchase it.

The best donuts on EARTH! Well at least on the east coast. Nothing like warm freshly made donuts! And these are the bomb. Try the glazed buttermilk and savor in an almost creamy and dreamy donut. The new online ordering that you pick-up out front is super easy and if you do it before you leave, the donuts will be waiting for you. Don’t be afraid to ring the bell!

I got an apple fritter here and it was so yummy and super big (worth the price, honestly feels best to share between two people.) If you get there a little bit early the wait is virtually nothing. I hope to go again! Also Mia is the best security guard ever !!!!!!!

One of my favorite island traditions is lining up for a donut from Back Door Donuts after dinner. The donuts are fabulous, they are still warm when you get them! The party donut is my personal favorite, but they have so many options to choose from, make sure to try a few! BDD is also open during the day with the same menu (use the front door on post office square). We love Back Door Donuts so much that we served them as dessert at our wedding! Our guests loved them, they were the perfect dance floor dessert!

The apple fritter blew me away! While all other reviews gushed about its excellence, I never expected it to be THAT delicious. The fritter is really the only pastry you need to try here. I couldn’t control myself and also got the cinnamon roll, glazed donut and boston cream donut but was left undazzled. If I could go back, I would only get the apple fritter!

Wow! Best apple fritter I have ever had. My picture doesn't do it justice. It was probably a pound of fritter and took up the whole white lunch bag.

My wife got a chocolate cake with chocolate on top, looked amazing but couldn't have compared to my apple fritter,

We just saw a line and fell into it, so glad we did!

Highly recommend giving it a chance and the best part is, they are open in the evenings too!

Absolutely delicious! Tried the maple bacon and apple fritter, both amazing fritter was so light! Small que but wait as they are worth it!

Obsessed with this place. Fond memories of stopping by here after finishing an evening night shift at a restaurant around the corner for a treat with friends. It was fun to meet new people, both locals, seasonal workers, and visitors in line for this shared experience. All the classics are available, but their Apple fritter and maple bacon stand out. They even have gluten free options! If you haven’t tried it yet, this is a must visit while in OB

Some of the best donuts and Apple fritters I’ve ever had - anywhere! An MV staple for years. Donuts sold out of the back door at night is special (minus the lines) and part of our routine for many, many years during our summer vacations on the island. Get there early or plan on waiting. Donuts are fresh, “melt in your mouth” delicious and highly recommended!!!

Popular dessert spot. It's the thing you must do while on MV. All flavors of donuts and there will be one with your name on it. The cashiers are knowledgeable. I asked for the most popular, the weirdest and most mundane. Between those 3 variables I was able to pick a couple that met my need. Totally recommend as an evening snake after dinner. That's what my party did and we enjoyed it.

Apple Fritter & a Rainbow Sprinkle donut. Fabulous

We grabbed the late night donuts from the back door at around 10pm (all of the donuts were delicious) and found that luckily we had no line to wait in (it was raining so that helped). Must-stop if you are in the area. Their Merch is also on point.

Must try if you’re in Martha’s Vineyard. Definitely get the apple fritter. Gotta eat these donuts while they’re hot.
