    Two sugar twists, glazed twist, apple fritter.
    Jan M.

    Golden Hands Bakery is the gem on Wooster Pike and is now our go to shop for donuts. We've tried so many of their donuts, and the sugar twist is still my favorite. My husband loves the glazed apple fritter, and we still polish off donut holes by numbers too high to admit to anyone. There are different types of jelly, and custard filled donuts too that we've added to our list. It's hard to not find something delicious, and the moment you walk in the door the aromas of fresh sweet dough will get you drooling. The service remains friendly, and if you have questions they'll get answered. This is the place that is so good you're not even enticed by the supermarket donuts when you're shopping with a growling, empty stomach.

    Giant donut and donut holes

    We come here weekly for regular donuts, but today ordered a giant donut for my daughter's birthday and it was, like always, decadent!

    Taste: 5 Value: 5 Service: 5 After reading the reviews, we had to check it out. Came by on 4th of July and there were seasonal donuts available. Got a dozen of mixed donuts and was not disappointed. Mango pineapple cream was a great balance of sweet and not too decadent. Chocolate croissant and apple fritter were good.

    Donuts!

    On a work trip, so came here for some Donut's. Yep.. there good donuts. Not much more to say than that, if your in the area go get some before they sell out by 11am.

    Great selection and fun for kids with the faces! Grabbed two dozen for a party and it was a hit. Missed the pretzels, but hopefully they'll be there next time (go early!)

    Great local bakery. Very friendly staff. I enjoy seeing their Facebook posts as well. Lot of variety of donuts. Also have some drinks in fridge, pretzel bites, and breads available. Everything has been delicious. Donuts are top notch and fresh. Very reasonably priced. Can get busy but line moves fast. Sometimes runs out of the good donuts quickly so might want to go early. Highly recommend!

    I have driven by Golden Hands many times now and there is always a line so I decided to go this morning. The staff was amazing and recommended the most popular donuts. It is genuinely the best donut I have ever had everyone needs to go check it out. They're amazing. The line wasn't long right at 8am.

    Stopped here EARLY around 5:45 driving from Blue Ash to Louisville and it was a delectable morning treat! I had to do a loop around the block because the parking lot sign still has the old business's name on it, but once inside, I was greeted with trays upon trays of donuts and pastries. I had the carrot cake donut and the maple bacon, both of which were outstanding but the maple bacon is probably one of the best I've ever had and it's my favorite donut flavor so I've had a lot. Ladies working were very pleasant, I could never be that nice that early. This is a must stop if near Cincy bright and early.

Overall it was a bit overfilled so it was very messy and hard to eat. I could have done without the hidden coconut shavings inside. KIMCHI & EGG CROISSANT 5 I had this one for breakfast. I warmed it in my air fryer for 6 minutes on 330 so it didn't overcook. The croissant was flaky and delicious, and the kimchi added good flavor without being spicy. I would have liked to see a little more mozzarella but overall it was tasty! SOBACHA CHOCOLATE CHUNK COOKIE 4 Also tasty, oversized cookie. Soft and chewy texture. CINNAMON ALMOND BLUEBERRY TOAST (THURSDAY/FRIDAY ONLY) 5.25 Very good. The cinnamon filling reminded me of a brown sugar pop tart. I warmed it in my air fryer and it was perfect. Would order again. I just wish they had an espresso bar!

It is loaded with pecans, sticky in the best way, and easily one of the best in the city. When they're on, they're really on. One thing I noticed was that the setup could use a little refinement. With both coffee and bakery items coming from the same counter, the line gets congested fast and the shop is quite small. A separate line for coffee and tea offerings - they have a bunch - and pastries would make the experience smoother and match the quality of what they're serving. They do offer vegan options, which I personally have no interest in, but just an fyi. Overall, they deliver excellent pastries and has the potential to be even better with a few small tweaks to the flow and menu variety. Still absolutely worth a visit, especially for that croissant and pecan roll.

I stood in line and patiently waited until I got to the front. When I did, I was rewarded with possibly THE GREATEST SALTED PRETZEL OF MY LIFE. The only other one I can think of that comes close is Miller's Twist in Reading Terminal Market in Philadelphia. This pretzel was literally fresh out of the oven. The lady took the little pans/trays out of the oven, put the pretzel on the rack for like 10 seconds, and then boxed it up and handed it over to me. Damn near burned my hand by trying to take it out to take a picture lol. One bite in, and I knew this was one of the best things I have ever eaten in my life. It was salty, buttery, chewy, crispy. A perfect soft pretzel. I definitely should have bought more than one. By themselves, I could have probably ate 5-6 of them, no joke. This thing was perfect! Will be dreaming about this one for awhile!

    This is truly amazing, very high quality bread. On a trip to Cincinnati I visited Findley Market…read moreand had read a review that said it was the "best bread in Cincinnati". I have been baking and thought I'll be the judge of that. Well I was blown away and have been back twice. The 'bad boy' had a hard crust, lots of seasoning like an everything bagel, but incredibly moist inside. Second purchase was the Apricot, cranberry, walnut. To die for! Recommend cutting thick slices, perhaps best bread I have ever had. Also tried the scones, pretzels, both good, but something you can find anywhere. You will not be able to find bread like this often.
