Donuts made the way they used to before the waxy icing.

Donuts were delicious. The lady that served us at the counter was extra friendly. Loved the old-school cash register. They do take credit cards on orders over seven or eight dollars cash recommended

Arrived on a weekend shortly before closing (I know food places love that). I could see the whole counter but there were no donuts. The woman working said they had sold out and were closed. My life flashed before my eyes and I started to tear up. The woman, confused and vaguely afraid, produced a white box from somewhere, indicating it was all she had left. A whole family was approaching, so I said I'd buy them all, sight unseen. Just then the family came in; it was a couple with their beautiful grandchildren, ready to make sweet memories. I got to say "they're closed" and I'm not even the littlest bit sorry. I opened the box in my truck and found half a dozen perfect donuts. I contemplated about my missing husband and grandchildren and began feeding to self soothe. Possibly not the healthiest coping method but definitely the most delicious. This was a victory for singles everywhere, plus I found a fave donut shop. In the words of Michael Scott: it was a win-win-win.

This is a small "mom-n-pop" doughnut shop that has the absolute best doughnuts EVER. If you have never tried their cinnamon glazed doughnut, don't cheat yourself- HEAVENLY! Their shop makes you feel like you walked back into the 60s and they are very friendly. No pretentiousness, just absolutely delicious doughnuts!

Holts used to be a weekly treat when we lived in the neighborhood, but since moving into the city we don’t make it as often. I stopped in today and they are just as good as I remembered! They had an apple fritter now and it is delicious! This place is worth the drive. And the prices are great!

Amazing donuts! Waiting in line for the DMV just got a lot tastier
Been eating Holts for years and it’s high time I write a review.
First, the cake donuts. The consistence of these is always great – soft, but with enough firmness for a good mouthfeel, and the frosting is light and fluffy. I like that you can see little flecks of fruit in the frosting for the donuts that are cherry and blueberry frosted.
The glazed donuts have a pillowy texture and an airiness with a very slight chew, not quite melt-in-your-mouth but close. I actually prefer it this way, it makes it feel more substantial. The glaze is lovely, and I always get both cinnamon drizzle and cinnamon glazed. The cinnamon glazed has a more substantial, thicker, glaze that’s the perfect complement to the yeast donut.
I’ve not had the pudding-filled donuts (not really my thing) but my husband has, they are his favorite. He says the texture of the pudding is better than a cream and slightly less sweet, which he likes.
These donuts are delicious. Nothing artificial about their flavors, great texture, consistent quality. Holts has completely ruined me for any other donut!

The best doughnuts in KC. Lived a block away for 20 years. Never once was I let down by the Doughnuts or the service. The consistent quality over so many years is astounding. Live 20 minutes away now and still drive there on occasion because nothing close to me comes close to Holtz.
