Doughboy Donuts & Deli
Within walking distance of Broadway Station but also featuring a drive-through, this half-deli, half-bakery is a commuter’s dream. While it has space for the coffee crowd, most patrons are in and out. And although Doughboy sells more than 30 flavors of coffee, the doughnuts adhere to convention: on this day, we try maple with chocolate jimmies, a sugar-raised, and a light and airy lemon-filled. They are perfect to pair with coffee on a commute, though not worth taking a trip. 220 Dorchester Ave., South Boston, 617-269-7560 ($1.00 each; $9/dozen)
