Reviews portray Homer’s as a vibrant donut spot with huge, fresh, fluffy donuts in a wide range of flavors from classic glazed to creme brulee and maple bacon, with many praising the texture, balance of sweetness, and generous portions that justify the price for some. The shop’s playful Simpsons theme, bright pink decor, and on-site vibe with arcade games contribute to a memorable experience, and staff are frequently described as friendly, helpful, and attentive. Freshness and variety are recurring positives, and several flavors like pistachio, cookie monster, and the creme brulee are singled out as standouts, while packaging and takeout boxes are noted for being sturdy. A few reviewers find some flavors overly sweet or the price high for average donuts, and a small number report inconsistency or oiliness in certain batches. Allergens safety is mentioned by at least one reviewer who highlighted peanut concerns with a specific flavor. Overall, the sentiment is strongly favorable, with many calling it the best or a must-visit donut spot in the area, though some warn that taste can feel uniform across flavors and that the hype may not match every experience.
I tried the donuts at Homer's along rue Sherbrooke, & I think you'd really enjoy their selection of donuts & buns. I bought half a dozen of their premium?flavored donuts, & everything was delicious. What stood out the most was the sweetness level - it was exactly right for my palate. The price is also reasonable: six pieces of their premium beignets cost $18
question de goût mais après deux tentatives, à mon avis, ceux des grandes surfaces chez un concurrent populaire sont bien meilleurs que ceux de chez ome

The donuts were insanely fresh & pillowy-soft-the kind that practically melt the second you take a bite 🤤✨. The crème brûlée donut was the clear winner for us; it somehow actually tastes like crème brûlée, with that perfect balance of creamy sweetness & caramelized goodness 🔥🍮. & honestly… just look at that Cookie Monster donut-ridiculously cute & impossible not to smile at 🥹💙🍪.
They give you a big, solid box, & I was pleasantly surprised by how sturdy it was. Even sitting at the bottom of a grocery bag, it held up perfectly-just make sure you bring a large bag because this box means business 📦💪.
As for the service: I genuinely don't get some of the complaints. Maybe some reviewers expect American-style over-the-top enthusiasm? It's a donut counter, not a Broadway performance 😅. The employee was busy in the back but came out as soon as he could, carefully packed my donuts, & was polite & professional the entire time. No attitude, no rushing, no issues at all 👍🙂.
Zero complaints here-great donuts, sensible service, & exactly what you'd want from a place that focuses on the product 🍩💯.
C'est vraiment un bon endroit, propre & employé(e)s gentil(le), j'ai pris le beigne d'Homer & il est vraiment bon je vous le recommande à 100% seulement si vous aimez le sucré.
Tu veut manger des bons gros beignes?! C'est la place! Ils sont toujours frais & à la hauteur de mes attentes ! L'essayer cest l'adopter! Oubli ca les autres spots... c'est chez homers que tu voudras aller a chaque fois!

Donuts were so fresh & soft! The crème brulée somehow tastes so much like it & was our favorite. & just look at this cookie monster guy- so cute!
The box they give you is big but sturdy enough that it held up well in the bottom of a grocery bag (but you need a large one!)
Idk if other reviewers are lost americans but it is a doughnut counter- why should service workers pretend to be in total extase to serve you a donut? The employee was busy in the back but came to help as soon as he could, very carefully placed my doughnuts in a box for me, & was perfectly polite the entire time. Zero complaints!
Honnêtement, ce ne sont plus que des beignes : c'est rendu comme de la pâte à modeler avec du sucre. Du n'importe quoi. En plus, ça coûte cher pour du sucre raffiné.
