Benchwarmer's Coffee & Doughnuts

Popped in for a ~made to order~ doughnut, which might be the best idea ever! Had the Haka - chocolate, coconut & caramel - which was divine! I definitely suggest bringing a pal to split with, these doughnuts are no joke in the size or flavor department! Also two house roasted coffees as pour overs - delicious! The barista (doughnut-ista?) was super patient and friendly as I was the most indecisive about my coffee selection. Outdoor seating on Penn Ave was nicely shaded and breezy! Definitely a great spot for a sweet treat and a hot (or cold!) coffee!

Great customer service and hands down best chicken tenders and doughnuts around, Everything is made fresh. It’s must to stop here anytime you’re in the area!

Was a great day today by taking real taste of espresso like you take it in Europe, with cinnamon and sugar doughnut another one dipped in chocolate, fluffy and light, staff very sociable and friendly, wish this coffee shop more prosperity and success, like to visit again when visiting west reading,

No matter what I get from this spot, it’s good. The whole family loves the donuts. Every flavor is good! They make them hot on the spot and you can watch the glaze drip from the perfectly fried goodness. Their coffee is fresh. I typically get a caramel latte so I’m not sure what regular coffee tastes like here but it always smells fantastic. Egg sandwiches are good too. FYI, it’s more a to-go spot but when it’s a nice day they put out some tables and chairs. It’s ok we admire the baseball decor when waiting for our fresh food.

Best coffee in Berks, by far the best cold brew. Their doughnuts are to die for and are huge! Super cute place, the owner Adam is obviously very passionate about his product. Shout out to Sam for being the friendliest barista in Berks too.

Place is absolutely amazing. From the fresh doughnuts, to the well needed strong coffee. The only down side is they are closed on a Monday. If I was to pick a day where coffee is needed most. It would definitely be a Monday.

Normally I love them donuts and like seeing them make the different kind, but last night I ordered the Shake & Bake donut and the inside was not cooked all the way though. I normally do not write a bad review but this was not a good thing. I asked my husband to cut his in half . It was cooked expect the very middle. It was just a small piece but the point is it was not cooked though. I hate to say it but I’m planning to come back to this place. One I see or taste something that is not right I just wonder if next time it will be the same. So sorry but that’s what reviews are for.

WORST donut I’ve ever had in my life. It was so thick; it was like eating a roll. DRYEST donut I have ever had. The icing and coconut had no flavor. I got a coffee that was $5 for a tiny cup, and it wasn’t even filled up all the way. I don’t recommend this place. There are a lot more places I would pick before coming to this one. Walmart’s donuts are better.

Went there to get my kids “fun” donuts, checked out the menu prior to coming… to my surprise a half dozen donuts went from what I thought was $12.50 per the online menu to about $23. Almost double the price. I still proceeded with my order, due to my kids expecting donuts. We brought them home and ate them 20 min after ordering, and they were as dry as the Sahara Desert. They were disgusting. Even my kids were disappointed. I’ve never had a drier donut.. even Dunkin’ Donuts who’s donuts are frozen aren’t even that dry. Specifically one of my donuts didn’t even have any icing on it. It was supposed to be maple and bacon… there was bacon, but no maple… oh wait, it was on the other side of the donut which was placed icing side down in the box… so bacon was put on a dry donut. The marshmallows on my kids donuts were not toasted, they were burned and gross and my kids picked them off. Never coming here again. Total rip off. $24.00 for 6 disgusting donuts. I don’t understand how this place has 5 stars.

Love Adam and his staff. Personal, great coffee, super cute shop!
