I just recently tried all 8 or 9 donut containing bakeries in the greater Cleveland area. Again. Donut Scene ranks #1 again. It's a clear 4.5/5. At all hours of the day you'll get moist cake donuts with crispy outsides. At most but not all hours you'll get mostly moist (albeit still not as lightly fluffy as would be an ideal donut yet to be found in Cleveland) yeast donuts too. The old fashioned donuts are extra well prepared. Most of the time the snickerdoodle and chocolate chip cookies are soft and flavorful too. Not expensive either like Jack Frost or BigMouth. Don't take a gamble and make the drive to Strongsville for good donuts here at Donut Scene! Trust me- I've tried them all. read more

Although we rarely eat doughnuts there are many other good items that we make a special trip for. Their apple fritters are the best! Also, their seasonal Paczki, kolaches, cheese danish, and (cranberry nut AND banana nut) muffins are noteworthy. We always get these "to go". I haven't tried their coffee because they don't offer milk - just packaged and powdered creamers. Their staff is always welcoming and courteous. read more

Donuts here are average donuts, nothing super amazing but nothing bad. I appreciate the hours and the fact that their business is open as long as they are. If you're craving a donut at any point of the day, you know you can grab one here. They had a fair selection of donuts and cookies in the front case. I got the chocolate cream this time around, was a bit disappointed at the lack of powder on it and it was not filled much at all. The filling tasted like frosting to me, which isn't my favorite but it'll work. Tasted a bit old as well. I've been here before and they have tasted fresher and softer so maybe it's hit or miss. At the end of the day it's a donut and I could get one at 4pm. read more

Don't let the plain looking storefront fool you. This donut shop is legit. First, the fact that it's 24 hours is already a bonus, but aside from that, the donuts themselves are fluffy and fresh. I only had two kinds... the chocolate long John, which was soft and sweet, and the sour cream, which is essentially an old fashioned with a little crisp tartiness. I was impressed with the quality and the service was prompt and inviting. I live out of state, but would definitely recommend this place and would come back if I was in the area. read more

I'm giving a five star review the glazed donut. I have to stay away from there. I would literally gain weight. The service is great. The donuts are great. It's not much about the ambience, but it's not dirty a place again. I'm giving you a warning if you're on a diet, don't do it. lol read more

I have ordered from donut Scene many time with great satisfaction. But I ordered it last night for delivery in the morning and everything was day old stale. So awful, waste of money read more

Came here Saturday morning and there was a decent amount of people in line or sitting drinking coffee. Fun fact, the dozen donuts actually come with 13! Not bad for about $12.50. So many great classic and unique flavors (had pumpkin and apple for fall flavors) and the dough isn't heavy when you're chewing it at all! Friendly staff. Would return. read more

This is the sort of place that just survives when other places go under. You're there for a donut in the morning or...after dinner at 8 PM and that's fine because they're ALWAYS open. I craved a donut. I got a donut. It hit the spot. read more

A great surprise for a hidden gem. The donuts are truly amazing. The prices are great and the hours can't be beat. They are open 365 days a year and open 24hrs most days. They do close early on some holidays. read more

Happened to be in town for a high school volleyball game and stumbled across Donut Scene. Fabulous, flavorful donuts. And the woman behind that counter was so nice and funny. Made us feel right at home. Will be going back next time we are in the Cleveland area. read more

I really enjoy the Donut Scene in Strongsville. I especially enjoy the sour cream donuts and the apple fritters (give them about a 25 second jolt in the microwave). I've been there at different times of the day and they have always had them. People mention old or stale tasting donuts and I have to admit that I have not experienced this over the past 10X I have been there. Very good place - donuts are good - great selection - prices respectable. I highly recommend this store! read more

I must have died and gone to heaven. A 24 hour donut shop. They have a private parking lot and is located in a little strip mall. They not only have donuts, but they have muffins, cookies and cake. The have a small dining area where you can sit and enjoy your treats. They guy that was serving the donuts was very friendly and helpful. I was there later in the evening and the donuts did not appear too fresh and the selection was not great. I got the pineapple upside down cake, a lemon and sprinkle donut for $3. They served their purpose and satisfied my late night donut craving. The prices were so low, that I thought he mischarged me. read more

I can only vouch for the glazed donuts because that's all I got. I am a sucker for fluffy glazed donuts and this place was recommended to me from one of my coworkers. Even though it was the afternoon, I was in the area and wanted a donut so I stopped by this place. Everything looked so fresh so I decided to get a dozen glazed donuts for my family and I. I was surprised with how fresh these donuts were when I starting eating them. They were so warm and fluffy!!! Every single bite of my donut was so satisfying that I couldn't help but sneak another donut in before I arrived home. Will definitely come back to try their other donuts especially those specialty donuts they have! read more

In the beginning this was good fresh donuts. But the last time I was here. Some of our donuts were not good. Not only was the chocolate frosting on the donuts more sweeter then cake frosting and thick. But the donuts tasted about a week old. Mind you just some. I would have to say it is hit or miss on freshness. Not much more to add. read more

Very simple really. Friendly staff, pretty solid donuts, and very fair prices. A++

We moved from TX & have been searching for an amazing classic glazed donut. Definitely a 10/10 here! This place is open 24 hrs so it's hit or miss if you'll get a warm batch. Service was friendly, simple and quick We'll be back for sure! read more

Even during the brightest afternoon, Donut Scene has that vaguely grungy, exhausted feel of a three-in-the-morning all-night work shift. It's always clean but never spotless, with peeling tape and hand-made signs taped everywhere and newspaper clippings. And in a different world, that might be the sign of some slovenly business, but the truth is this: Donut Scene has been making donuts - good donuts - longer than most of you have been alive. Donut Scene does not have to impress you. Because their donuts? Do impress. They're old-school, full of cream and chocolate, these baseball-sized wads of fried dough perfectly made. The racks are always coming out of the back, and sometimes they'll just make a donut for you if they're sold out of the filling you like. And each of these donuts are frickin' delicious. They know what they're doing. They don't have to dress up for you, do a little song and dance - they politely hand you a donut that'll fill both your belly and your soul, maybe with a fresh coffee, and you go about your day. Is the transaction complicated? No. It's like an old marriage, really, where you've decided you don't have to dress up for each other any more, it's just pure comfort. You know what you like. Nobody's standing on ceremony here. Nobody's expecting anything but pure competence. You're just handing over a coupla bucks and getting some of the best donuts in Ohio. And they are some of the best donuts in Ohio, so getcha some. read more

Donut Scene is just about my favorite spot in Strongsville. The doughnuts are freshly made each morning, and the price is so minimal that you can't help but to get a few doughnuts, even when intending on only one! All of the bakery items are incredible, but a few personal favs are the glazed doughnut, apple fritters, and cinnamon rolls! Not to mention, the place is open all day, every day, and the workers are lively and ready to converse with you if you're interested. DEFINITELY check out Donut Scene and support the locally-owned shop! read more

I want be going back. Doughnuts good, customer service bad and it was three in the afternoon.

Usually I love their donuts. I learned about this place due to a coupon in the entertainment book. I keep going back for more. Only once we're the donuts so so. Otherwise the donuts are excellent. read more

The fact this place is 24 hours, is beyond amazing. I mean that right there, to me, is the best. I love their cinnamon rolls and the apple fritters. I also love all the locals who hang out inside. read more

There's a really rude old white woman working here that completely matches this old run down donut place. It looks dirty, dusty, unkempt. Imagine what the kitchen looks like! Gross. The donuts are very average but I refuse to come here because the lady working is such a vibe killer, just rude, and unhappy. No thanks I'll go to DUNKIN read more

Everytime I come here service is great. The donuts are always fresh and sooo good. Definitely a hidden gem in Cleveland

Great place! Fresh Donuts & decent prices! Small place-home style country place. Fast service too.

Used to love this place! I'd always rave about it, and recommend. There donuts were always so fresh and soft and delicious. I live 2 minutes away from Spudnuts and I'd drive the 15 minutes for Donut Scene... but last 3 times I've gone the donuts were not good. Dry and like they were either cooked too long or sitting out too long. Not sure what's going on here but these are different than they used to be. read more

Delicious donuts. Crispy on the outside, inside melts in your mouth. Not too sweet and not too heavy. 24 hours. Inexpensive. Much better than the double D or double K. The place has a bit of a diner/dive feel, which is expected for a place that's 24 hours. The service has been pleasant each time I've gone. Not much else to say. Would be nice if they were a bit more adventurous with their flavors but it's not that kind of place. They do the classics and they do them well. Oh, try the seasonal pumpkin cake donut and thank me later. read more

False hours. Tried to go here at 430 am and was not open even though sign said 24 hours. All the lights were off and nobody home. Please change hours to let people save time in trying to go and be disappointed like I was. read more

Reviewing the glazed donuts on this one: I'm a sucker for a classic glazed donut that is airy on the inside and soft on the outside. I also love when a glazed donut has a flavor other than yeast and not too heavy on the glaze. It's a balancing act that Donut Scene has mastered. No matter what time of day I've stopped in here the quality is there. It always tastes freshly made but the glaze is never melting off. My favorite glazed donuts in the area. If you are a glazed donut fan, find the time to try this place. It's open 24 hours to accommodate whatever schedule you have without losing any quality. Take it from someone that's tried this place morning, afternoon, night, and that time where your child wakes you up at 3am and you want donuts for the next morning...but can't resist one on the way home. read more

Cheap, Quality, and good variety of donuts at any time of day, what more could you ask for? This place is a gem I only wish it were closer to downtown where I live! Blueberry cake donut is especially delicious, apple fritter is pretty good too! Also have an amazing variety even at 2am! read more

I'm really lucky To know someone who is willing to take me to a 24hr donut place a half hour away when the donut craving kicks in! These are quality donuts for a place that's open all day every day. They've always been really fresh, not stale at all. Definitely dive type place but it's worth it for some good donuts when no one else is open! read more
