Description

Doughnuts are breakfast food, right? At Bob's, they are also lunch food, dinner food, and something to munch on at 3 a.m. In the wee hours, the doughnuts may be less fresh and correspondingly cheaper. Go for the apple fritters, maple bars, and the imposing "giant" doughnuts ― and be sure to have cash handy, because cards aren't accepted. As far as atmosphere goes, there's little to speak of.

  • 2006 | Best 24-Hour Establishments

    Bob's is an oasis of civilization in the wee small hours of the morning when the rest of the city's fast asleep and there are glazed old-fashioneds to be dunked. These fresh, hot, made-from-scratch triumphs come in several varieties -- plain, cinnamon, glazed, jelly, light, dense -- yet none has ever been heavy, greasy, or stale. It's a pleasure to get a cup of joe from the do-it-yourself coffee station, settle in at the counter, and, if you're there at the right time, watch some... More »

  • 2002 | Best 1 A.M. Sugar Fix
