2025 UPDATE: Previously, I gave this place 2 stars in 2021. They've worked their way up to 3.5/3 75. They've mostly done away with those overly sweet novelty donuts and instead stepped up their basic glazed donuts. A fresh, warm. glazed Hurts Donut has become my favorite bakery donut in the city. (Since Blue Dot closed)
2021 Review: THE NAME SAYS IT ALL!!! These are NOT good New Orleans donuts like that of the old McKenzie's, Shipley's, The Buttermilk Milk Drop, or Blue Dot. These donuts look cute, but they HURT your stomach! Poor POOR quality ingredients, LOADS of crappy sugar, and NO real FLAVOR. They are just trendy and Instagramable, but as far as actually eating them... never again. We ordered a large box with a variety of flavors. The Jesus donut was the absolute sweetest! The Strawberry Cheesecake was the most artificial tasting and disappointing. No strawberry. No cheesecake flavor. Walmart Great Value Graham crackers thrown on top.. Just a large quantity of crap disguised as cool novelty donuts. Then I read they are from Michigan, no disrespect to Michigan, but that explained a lot. I'd take a classic donut from a place like Starbucks before I ever subject myself to another night on the toilet with these. FLAVOR over AESTHETICS!!! I gave them 2 stars because I do love the Andy Warhol theme boxes, but obviously, the bandaids over the donuts were a warning. Also,the best one seemed to be the Butterfinger/Bart Simpson donut. Still super sweet but actually tastes good when slightly warmed up.

If I could give ZERO stars I would. At 10:00 am on a Sunday morning, NO ONE was in the store, I order my 3 donuts, and go to pay while she is getting my donuts boxed up. I go to get coffee….. the coffee is luke warm, AND BURNT! I ask her to please make me 2 cappuccino’s….. you would have thought she was growing the beans herself- 12 minutes to make 2 cappuccino’s, ANDDDD….. when I got in the car- BOTH drinks were barely warm!!! AND, wait for it.. when I opened my donut box…. She FORGOT ONE OF MY 3 donuts!! $18.03 for 18 minutes if my life I cant get back🤬 this place sucks.

1. These are some amazing donuts. Not because of the weirdness or craziness of the toppings. It’s an amazing doughnut. The glazed donuts are big and fluffy and wonderfully delicious. With that dough as the base to many of their donuts the toppings are just “icing on the cake”. Same thing with the cake donuts. Great cake donuts (understatement of the year) make for great cake donuts when you add toppings. Toppings DO NOT make great donuts. 2. The guy in there was awesome. Explained costs because I was buying for a group, and then answered questions on donuts… because I’m an idiot and wanted to talk donuts and he was more than happy to do that with me. 3. Clean and fun atmosphere.

Ordered on Doordash and will now become a loyal customer. Kolaches and doughnuts were on point.
The Donuts are hugh and tasty. They are priced just right. There is something for everyone. Try them all.

Best damn doughnuts in the country. Especially the old fashion doughnuts. A must stop when visiting. They open at 6 am and the doughnuts are still warm. Great coffee too!!!

The donuts were very good. Too much glaze for me. But the husband, kids, and neighborhood kids loved them. Just a little too sweet for me.

There was a short line and quick service on a Sunday morning. I ordered the largest Boston crème donut I’ve ever eaten (although I think that it was called a Bavarian crème here). It set me back $3. I then purchased a decaf americano, it was fine, nothing spectacular.
Great donuts!
