Our favorite item at Ronald's is the apple fritter. This weighty pastry is essentially a deep-fried cinnamon bun laced with bits of apple and dipped in a sweet glaze. The craggy sugared surface has an appealing crunch. Most donut shops sell them but we've not sampled any better than the ones from Ronald's. Also good are the simple glazed old-fashioned donuts, sporting the now-traditional crown shape, and the plain buttermilk donuts.

"A Ronald's apple fritter: we believe they serve up one of the best examples of this donut-shop staple."
Bruce Bilmes and Susan Boyle

"The bottom pastry is a buttermilk donut. We'd never seen them made in that shape before. The old-fashioned (that crown-shaped donut that is common out west but we rarely encounter back east) is a classic. The jelly donut is good, but not quite up to the level of the other two."
Bruce Bilmes and Susan Boyle

"Most of the donuts at Ronald's are vegan, meaning they are made without any animal products whatsoever. Donuts don't seem to miss the dairy much, but we imagine the loss might be felt in the creme-filled varieties. We've never tried them but would be fascinated to hear the reviews of braver palates than ours (are you listening, buffetbuster?)."

"Ronald's Donuts gives no outward appearance of being anything special, but the donuts are far from ordinary. Most business is take-out, but there are a couple of tables for those who just can't wait."
