I was attracted to this place and the bright, New York-​like sign. Then I spotted the donuts and I thought that I had found what I had been missing from the US. Their donuts are very tasteless and have an odd texture. They seemed oddly stale. I’ve only had donuts from the US and these were not like any donuts I’ve had in the US. I was really disappointed as I have been missing donuts and cannot find any decent donuts. I had bought 2 donuts and then threw them in the trash as I just could not eat them. So sad. Oh well, at least they looked pretty.

My first meal in London as a study abroad student! Great location, loved the atmosphere of Piccadilly Circus. We liked the sound of the combination of donuts and baguettes so we decided to give it a try. I got a bagel and a donut of course. Food was good, I don’t think anything in London is bad! But it was definitely just a quick bite, nothing special! But what we were looking for.

Donuts are not that good, service is absolutely horrible and prices are insane. About 2−3£ for a donut that even Greggs could do better? TOURIST TRAP

These donuts are really good! The pricing is actually good for location as well. There are plenty of flavors to try and the texture and flavor are great.

The donuts were actually quite good despite the reviews I read before going here. I had the toffee donut with pecans, the toffee custard, and the toffee chocolate. Yes, I was in a toffee mood. The donuts were fresh and light, with excellent flavor.
Despite the price £1.75−2 they were good and delicious. The location was clean at time of service and the counter service was friendly.
Give them a try next time you are in the area.

Actually worse than the donuts you’d get at a highway stop convenience store. Crusty on the outside – really crusty, like 3-​days-​stale crusty – and disconcertingly squishy on the inside. The strawberry jelly ones? Are filled with strawberry jam. What is happening. Why does this place still exist. Please, don’t give them your money. As much as I like keeping places gritty, this is not the right kind of local flavour.

Stale, dry donuts. Burnt, old coffee. We felt like we just threw money into the trash can because that’s what we did with our donuts and coffee from this place.

Donuts are really expensive, place was kind of dirty but I am not sure what one would expect at a place that appears to be open almost 24⁄7? The donuts we had were fresh and pretty good. Like DD but not quite.
Will remind Americans of Dunkin Donuts.

If you like stale donuts then this is place for you. If not save the 10quid you spend for a box of 6 and do something more productive with it.

Avoid this place! Donuts were stale and tasteless. The green tea was good, but then how hard is it to add hot water to a teabag?

The white chocolate donut I had was ok! quite nice! but £1.75 for a donut is an actual joke!

Ate here one morning. Had two coffees and a few donuts. Probably the worst donuts I have ever eaten. Some of the donuts were spongy and the other ones were stale and they were £1.75 each. A ripoff and disgusting. The coffees were almost £3.00 each and were gross and watery. Stay away from this joint and go to the Whole Foods down the street. I would give this 0 stars if I could.

One night after a few drinks we came here for a bite and a donut. I wasn’t drunk at all, like I said it was just a couple of drinks.
The baguette was disgusting, I guess it serves me right for eating in a place were they seem anyway, to have been sitting there for centuries. The tomato tasted old and when you took it out of the baguette it looked old.
I paid an extortionate amount for the donut (£1.35) which was hard, really stale and after one bite I threw away. That was also the destiny of my baguette. My friend had similar complaints about hers, she had half of hers before it met up with the bin.

Donuts should not cost more than a pound a piece. That’s the golden rule. Unless the donuts are keys to magical realms that only gods normally have access to I don’t believe paying more than a quid for fried bread and icing is worth it. The management at Donuts & Baguettes does not seem to think that this rule applies to them. They sell a regular ringed donut for £1.35 a pop. I must admit that their donuts are good, but they’re not delicious. They’re also not keys to celestial planes beyond the capacity of human imagination. So I vote ‘no thank you’ to another possible patron opportunity at this place.

This diner type restaurant is as brash as it gets with a kitsch colour theme. It also serves as a reminder of the point at which Piccadilly Circus becomes Soho. If you’re planning to run the shopping gauntlet in Soho, it could be worth your while to stop here to fill up on a calorie-​laden treat set to pave your arteries in yellow gold.
Grab a delicious donut (lots of different flavours) or one of their baguettes which come in a range of different options. It’s a great place to grab a coffee and window seat if you like to people-​watch. Considering Donuts & Baguettes is right across the road from the Piccadilly Circus tube, it’s always busy and probably not a place you’d find suitable to have a quick meeting in.
