Donuts are consistently described as fresh, large, soft and flavorful, with a wide range of flavors from classic glazed to inventive options like creme brulee and pistachio; the texture is light and not overly greasy, and many say the sweetness level is well balanced, though a few note some flavors can be very sweet. Prices are generally seen as fair for the size and quality, with some mentions of higher price for premium flavors. Service is repeatedly described as friendly and helpful, and the shop ambiance is welcoming and playful, often highlighted by retro arcade games that add nostalgic charm. Overall, Homers is portrayed as a standout donut destination in Montreal, a must try for donut lovers, with many reviewers planning to return and praise the packaging and on site experience, while a small number point to room for improvement in consistency or cleanliness.
Je parle de celui de Brossard : Beignes excellente, l'ambiance vraiment sympa ( je reste admiratif des anciennes bornes d'arcades entièrement en état & utilisables ! ), le service était certes un peu long... Mais raison de plus pour profiter un peu de ces bijoux que sont ces bornes d'arcade non ? ;-)
This is the best donut place ever! Ever since it has opened it has always been busy! The donut are so good & are pretty creative. For example the cookie monster donut with a chocolat chip cookie on top. Love this place!!

We ordered the "les favoris de homers (6)" & we were expecting to receive 6 different flavours but only got 5 different donuts as one flavour was put in duplicate in the box. We were very disappointed that the store didn't but a variety of donuts that didn't include duplicates. It's quite obvious in the picture that the same donut is put twice. Most of the donuts were honestly really good. We are just very dissatisfied that we couldn't have the variety expected. On the picture online, they show a variety of 6 different donuts.
Wish it was easier to find parking but other than that, donuts were delicious & fresh. Staff was very friendly too. Definitely recommend this place for any sweet cravings you have!
As incredibly mouthwatering & delectable that those donuts look in that glass display next to the register as you're queued up waiting to order, I can't lie & say that it was as satisfying as I had expected. These donuts look good, but they are shockingly light &, well, kind of bland. It wouldn't have been a problem if there was a counter-taste to them, but there isn't. i ordered two Nutella donuts, a classic homer one, & a blueberry cheesecake one I believe. as a huge Nutella lover, this was definitely one of the sadder Nutella donuts I've had. It's okay, but the substance just wasn't there. There wasn't that drooling Nutella that would leak & smother me after I take a bite, but instead icing powder littered all over. The rest of them were the same, the same dough-ey taste with a bunch of icing powder. There was like a teaspoon of flavour that, in conjunction with the donut which was already quite flavourless to begin with, made the entire experience really bland. The flavours they come in are like a shell of what it should be. It should definitely be way sweeter or heavier of a taste, if that makes sense, & the donuts should have more to it as well! & let's be real, you're having a donut to indulge in a sweet treat, not to cut loose on calories. I want a donut that'll inflict my teeth with cavities & diagnose me with conditions right after I eat it. I crave it!!!!!!!!! The potential was definitely here but it fell short :(
We visited Homers donut shop on Sherbrooke Street West in Montreal & it did not disappoint. The interior & exterior are vibrant & inviting, matching the variety of colorful donuts they offer. We tried several donuts, & they were all tasty. The crème brûlée donut was absolutely delicious, with a perfect caramelized topping. The apple fritter was flavorful, & the Boston cream was generously filled with a rich, tasty cream. Beyond the donuts, we couldn't resist trying their deep-fried crispy chicken sandwich served between two donuts (sorry no photo). It's as wild as it sounds, but the result was incredibly delicious It was messy, indulgent, & absolutely satisfying! My partner & I shared one, & it was the perfect amount. The staff were extremely patient & friendly, making the visit even better. We're still working our way through the donuts we bought, but so far, we're loving their light & fluffy texture. Can't wait to try the rest!"
Belle variété de beignes, ils sont moelleux & gourmands. Je vous conseille de venir en journée si vous voulez avoir plus de choix de beignes. Josh est vraiment super gentil!
We finally tried this place out. I was hesitant at first because I kept hearing there was more donut than toppings. I'm glad I ignored those comments because the donuts were delicious. We purchased a dozen donuts for 4 of us. They lasted us a few days & still managed to keep the same soft texture & taste. If you want to pig out, this is the place to do it. You'll feel like a piggy but a happy one. Delicious & would definitely recommend! A+
