"Twin Donuts – with its iconic neon sign – is as much an Allston landmark as it is a haven for the morning crowds looking for an unfussy diner breakfast. The spot has been going strong since 1955, serving up affordable combo plates for the weekend brunch crowd and donuts and coffee for the weekday commuters." - Lala Thaddeus, Terrence Doyle
"A staple for college students and before- (or after-) work coffee and doughnut grabs, Twin Donuts has stood at the crossroads of North Beacon and Cambridge streets in Allston for decades. If you’re ducking in for a doughnut, the chocolate glazed is an excellent starting point. Have more time? Get the combo #1, a two-plate feast of eggs, a choice of meat (the corned beef hash is always a good bet), potatoes, French toast, and pancakes." - Erika Adams, Terrence Doyle
