The signs said "ask about our hot ham and cheese donuts," so I did. It's a regular glazed donut made into a sandwich with ham and your choice of various cheeses. The sweet-salty combo is fun, and the donut is nicely fluffy. This is definitely a small-town Nebraska place, with a laidback feel. By mid-morning on a Sunday, donut selection was dwindling, so if you can claim your donut early, you should. read more

Daylight Donut - Hot ham & cheese donut! - Donuts Near Me - Kearney, Nebraska

Looking for some plain ole donut shop coffee me this place was great. Was greeted not just by the you g lady behind the counter but the patrons also. It felt really nice, small town feel. A place that the locals would go just to talk. I also had a maple bar which was very good. read more

My family has always got donuts here and they are all ways the best!

Their donuts are absolutely amazing. It's the best donut store in town for sure. I really love their cream filled long johns.

The donuts here are always light, airy, fluffy, and best of all delicious. Always a great treat to eat their donuts. I would only downgrade to 4 stars because service is "meh." It's not great, it's not bad, it's very minimal if non-existent past grabbing your donuts and ringing you up to pay. read more

Grew up around here. Daylight Donuts taste, is uniquely delicious. It's the taste of how you imagine a donut should taste like...Perfection. The Kearney business gives of a warm, friendly, small town farmer cafe vibe. Staff and locals are very friendly and greet everyone with hospitality. If you travel through Nebraska, this is a diamond in the rough. read more

Sooo how does a place that does nothing but donuts not have 70% of to their potential inventory at 7am on a weekday?? And how do you not have chocolate frosted anything at all? I could understand later in the morning but this is a big ol donut FAIL. read more

We have retrurned a number of times to this donut shop. It has become our favorite donut shop in the U.S.. We look forward to visiting every year. The donuts are fantastic, the coffee is good. The service is fast and friendly, and the patrons are welcoming. I love you, Daylight Donuts! read more

Had not been here for long time but stopped today for whip creme filled log with nuts on. Was excellent and better than others I have had, though I rarely do. My favorite since closed many years ago has always been my standard of comparison, North Platte Bakery. This was a good example today however and I would return. read more

I had been here 5 times their doughnuts are awesome and also my son is allergic to their doughnuts so we got crispies wich I tried and they were awesome I recomend this place to a lot of people read more

This place was such a great find. Their donuts are always fresh, delicious and have such a great texture. I've had their bear claws too, they are so good. I'm in Kearney for a short time and take my kids here weekly, they love it. It is the closest we've found to our favorite donut shop in Mass. Everything is so cheap too. read more

This place is a classic. How can you not love a doughnut place that has a drive-thru?! Hands down the best glazed doughnut I have ever had, although the last time I was in town my glazed had less 'glaze' on it than I remembered. Oh, and the coffee here isnt their strong suit, unless you like gas station brew that tastes more like doughnut fryers that coffee. read more

They have a amazing selection of donuts. And perfect for all ages because, they have glazed donuts to colorful frosting and awesome sprinkles. They are also extremely quick and seems like they always have what you like! You can never go wrong going there. There great! read more

A good selection of donuts even for little later in morning. However the donut quality was not near as good as other daylight donuts i have had. Their donut holes were good. The other donuts we had were very dry. Even the frosting on my donut was dry. I was visiting Kearney and do so a few times a year but I wouldn't recommend this place. read more

Really want to support a local business, but it makes it hard when their supply is deplete by nine. Has happened multiple times to us.

I ordered a dozen cupcakes for my daughter's birthday over the phone, 3 weeks in advance. The nice gentleman took all my information and I made arrangements to pick them up at 7 a.m. on the 3rd. of July. I arrived at 7 and the young server couldn't find my order. She asked another employee and that employee told me, "I didn't make them." I said I had ordered them over the phone over 3 weeks ago and they had taken my number and all my information. She said, "If the baker doesn't call you back you don't have an order. I didn't call you so you don't have an order." Reluctantly, I purchased a dozen donuts/rolls (I wish I would have just left). As I was paying a third employee said, "Oh look the beetle is back! They're down here (pointing to the floor behind the food counter). Obviously, this owner doesn't need the business as there is no oversight. I will be purchasing all future baked goods elsewhere . read more

THESE are the best Donuts in Kearney. They are made everyday, fresh dough and fried every. single. day. They are so good people buy them by the dozen, two or four at a time! So sometimes they run out of my favorite. But it's okay, because there is something to try that I find I love!! I've seen people become downright irate because they can't get what they want. Guess what? Order ahead of time! Get there earlier! They open at like 3am, and since they are fresh, no, they can't just go in the back and make more. If you think that, you have no idea the work that goes into these products. Go buy crappy doughnuts from Walmart or Hy-Vee, frozen pre-packaged junk! If you call and leave a message the day before (if they are already closed) they will make those JUST FOR YOU. And then maybe won't run out as quickly. It's not rocket science! Duh. Just tasty donuts!! P.S. the nutty filled long johns are the best!! And the Old Fashioned are divine! read more

The donuts are awesome...when you can get them. They are suppose to open at 3AM. My friends and I got there at 3AM...and the door was locked. So we tried the drive through. We sat there for 25 minutes while the employee ignored us...ignored the people knocking on the front door and ignored the phone, (we could hear it ring inside through the window) four times!!! We could see a woman inside and my friend said she looked right at us once...and still she ignored us. We were never acknowledged and ended up leaving because 25 minutes is ridiculous. How rude!! read more
