We arrived in the later afternoon on a Saturday…read more The store is bright and appears to be well kept. We were immediately greeted upon entry, and pleasantly surprised to find a fair amount of choices left! As we looked over our choices, the employee offered a sample of their donut holes as a first time visitor! The donut holes were nice. Fluffy and nice, not overly sweet. We ordered a glazed persian, glazed crueller and a cotton candy. My daughter didnt care for the cotton candy topping, but no points loss since it is preference issue. It was a little toooo sugary for us. Husband reports French crueller was really good, well made and good flavor. Persian was a bit too sweet for him. I ordered a sugar twist to enjoy later, imagining it to be soft and fluffy like the donut hole. We will be bringing the rest of our kiddos here to check it out in the future!

This was my third stop on the donut trail, and Holtman's stood out as the most modern-looking shop…read more I loved that you could see right into their kitchen--it adds a fun, behind-the-scenes feel to the experience! Their donuts are beautifully made, and I decided to try the doughsant ($4.25). Its shape reminded me of Parlor's version, though I found it not flaky enough, especially at that price point. The location is easy to access, with plenty of parking. It's almost a standalone building, except for one neighboring business. Overall, a nice stop if you're exploring the local donut scene!

I ordered the day before and grabbed my donuts for an event it was good to go! I was able to pay…read moreover the phone as well (but you could pay in person but it made it easier on me). I got assorted, if you order 2 dozen they will add all two in one box so I would make sure if you did not want that to ask them ahead of time. I've heard so many great things about this place & it didn't disappoint! It's a small shop in a shopping area, didn't see signage (doesn't mean not there from the road) but gps does tell you where to go and leads you where needed.

Happy to relay Stan the Donut Man is part of the Donut Trail!!…read more I am a HUGE fan of glazed donuts and Stan has THE BEST! I have been to many bakeries around town. Yes they have many other varieties as well as seasonal variations! A definite a cure for that morning sweet tooth! As you enter you're greeted by the friendly staff!!! They do have limited table seating. Pop in and experience what the best glazed donuts taste like!!! You won't be disappointed in the least!

I happened to notice the sign for this little shop located in a shopping center while we were…read moredriving by, and we decided to check it out. The Donut Hole is a very apt name for this hole in the wall style place, but it was a great find! The big draw that immediately drew us forward was the glass case full of donuts -- and there were more racks in the back too. Because we came near closing time, there were fewer options but we still had trouble deciding. We eventually settled on lemon filled lemon iced donuts and chocolate iced donuts. We much enjoyed these tasty treats and look forward to checking out some other flavors in the future.

This was my fourth stop on the donut trail, and it had a charming mom-and-pop feel. The selection…read moreis smaller, with donuts displayed in a simple case, but the prices are incredibly affordable. I noticed their crème horns, generously dusted with powdered sugar, which looked tempting! I went with a classic yeast donut for just $0.95, and it was a solid choice--soft and satisfying. Personally, I prefer the light, airy texture of Krispy Kreme's glazed donuts, but this was still a nice treat. I also learned they have a sister store in Middletown, which is also part of the donut trail. A great little stop if you enjoy classic, no-frills donuts!

BEST GLUTEN-FREE DONUTS!!…read more I just had their gluten-free pumpkin donut and it was SO good!! I also grabbed some for my family, and they didn't even realize they were gluten-free -- that's how you know they're good! Everyone was so nice, and the shop itself is super cute and has such a cool vibe. I will definitely be back!!

Hurts Donuts will hurt: your wallet, your belief in what a GF doughnut could be, and your body…read more First, the good. They taste amazing! I am not a big donut person, but the GF donuts DO NOT taste gluten free at all! They also taste fresh, just a step below having a warm, just made donut (which is the only way to have one IMO). The pumpkin drizzle (idk why drizzle, there was no drizzle on it) has a classic cider mill doughnut flavor. I would not describe it as pumpkin flavored. Now, the reasons why I'll never return. 1. The price! $4 for a single GF donut? That's bonkers! I was going to pay cash, but I couldn't even afford 1 donut with the cash I had on hand. 2. The toppings overwhelm/mask the flavor of the donut, which is a shame and a waste. The pumpkin caramel drizzle was overpowered by the caramel, and it was so sweet, that I couldn't consume the entire donut. That is saying something, given how much they cost! 3. Your gut/body will be in rebellion. IDK what the ingredients are in the GF donut, but I immediately bloated, and my body reacted as if I consumed a product with sugar alcohol (IYKYK). These ill effects lasted the rest of the day, and carried over to the next day. Flavor: 5 stars. Everything else...could be better. So, if you roll up to Hurts Donuts, win the lottery beforehand, go for the plain "drizzle" donuts, as they have the best flavor, and be prepared that your body (and wallet) may not thank you after.

We are visiting OH from CA for a graduation party. When my friend's said she was going to pick up fresh pretzels, I thought full sized. When she bright in the slices, cheese dip & spinach dip tbh i was confused. Once we opened the bag to put on the table, i couldn't stay our of them. Everyone i walked past the table i had to have a bite. Even after hours of sitting open to air, they were super soft. The cheese sauce was bomb. It was so good, we got up early to be at the shop ash 7:30am to pick us up some pretzels & cheese to take home ro CA. We decided the get the garlic cheese sauce since my hubby says everything is better with garlic. Can't wait to try it but for now it's going in the suitcase to go home with us. I wish we could have brought home the red velvet roll & strawberry rhubarb but I guess we'll have to get them next time
