"In a state better known for muffins, locals gather here to chat and enjoy textbook-perfect honey-dipped donuts that have earned legions of devotees."

Food & Wine

"America's Best Doughnuts: Congdon's Doughnuts - This family-owned roadside bakery and restaurant sells classic flavors and signatures like blueberry jelly doughnuts and honey-dipped varieties."

Zagat

"The eatery is still family-owned, and they continue to make donuts the way Nana did, including their blueberry option, which, you guessed it, is a cake donut stuffed with mildly tart local berries."

Dan Myers

"You’ll never have another donut that’s quite like Congdon's blueberry jelly donut: Filled with fresh-made blueberry jam and topped with a hit of powdered sugar, it’s almost singlehandedly put the town of Wells on the map."

Tabelog

"Over 30 donut varieties are made, but there is nothing quite like the Blueberry Jelly, filled with fresh blueberry jam."

Kate McCarty

"Step up to the no-frills counter to choose from a variety of pillowy-soft raised doughnuts or go all out and order a dozen at the drive-thru window."

Kevin Alexander

"My move is to get the Maine blueberry in the summer, and at least two buttercrunch any other time of the year. And frankly, it should be your move too."

Michael Uzmann

"The best of the best was undoubtedly a powder sugar dredged pocket of stewed Blueberries more than justifying the inevitable mess."

Susan Axelrod

"Congdon’s is regularly included on national “best doughnuts” lists so if you’re in the Wells area, you’re in for a real treat."
