    THE OG Fractured Prune right here! They use a higher quality flour which sets the bar HIGH for flavor! They was the toppings and glazed work together to bring the decadence of the dough which is made FRESH on the spot. My moth is watering just talking about it. The Myrna is named after the owners mother. I really enjoy coming each year to see this amazing location alive and well. DO NOT MISS OUT JUST BECAUSE ITS NOT ON THE BOARDWALK!!! You will not regret going there to get your hands on some fabulous donuts and friendly staff!

    Looking for a nice hot SUPER fresh donut?! Look no further beach goers-- Fractured prune is the spot to go! I tried the Maple Bacon and the Thin Mint. YUM! If you like thick glaze, this won't be your spot. The donuts come out fresh and your glaze and toppings are added right before your eyes! The size of the donut is really nice, you don't feel like you're going to blow up, but it may make you want another one :) But, you're on vacation, right!? The purple box is calling your name!

    This is the OG and best donut shop in ocean city and it is easy to see why. Between the huge variety in flavors to the quality in every bite, this is the place to go for breakfast on your vacation. A few flavors that are standouts to me are French toast and banana nut bread. Truly there is something for everyone here. The donuts come out hot hot hot, and they stay that way all the way home. Finger licking goodness!

    Donuts are good, but they're smaller than what i thought. For 3 donuts was $7.58. It's a heavy small donut, was fresh and hot.

    The last time I had donuts from Fractured Prune was circa 2008 before the location near my home in VA shut down. It was a sad day. So when I saw multiple locations here in Ocean City, I made a plan to wake up early and get there as soon as it opened. I was greeted by the friendly manager and the employee working in the back was very efficient. There's plenty of parking here when the pizza restaurant next door isn't open yet. Okay on to the donuts. You can make your own or order some preset combinations; I chose the latter to be efficient and rush back home and I didn't regret it. Yes the size of these are a bit smaller than say, Dunkin Donuts but I wouldn't subtract any points for that. These are absolutely FREAKING DELICIOUS! When you pop one into your mouth, you are greeted by a sensation of flavors, and a nice crispy/crunchy exterior gives way to a soothing airy dough interior that satisfies all the senses. As I scarfed down my 3rd donut, I knew I was in donut heaven. I thought to myself " what if someone asked me to rank this against Duck donuts and Texas donuts?" I would say all 3 stores can live in harmony as they all contribute something different and I love them all. Custom ordered donuts -- hot off the conveyor belt -- are the only donuts I'll eat from now on.

    WOWOWOWOW - I have typed, deleted, and retyped this review about three times now. And I still cannot find the words to express my experience. SUCH amazing customer service. Assuming it was the owner I was speaking to, he offered certain flavors to my friends and I - including one that was made in the honor of his mother. Honestly, it wouldn't have mattered what flavor was recommended - they were ALL good. No exaggeration. Fractured Prune was so good my friends and I returned the following day for larger orders. *see below* All with no regrets. 10 out of 10 would recommend - BEST DONUTS IN THE DMV!

    This place is great. The guy behind the counter (I think the owner) is super nice. He gave us a list of local food recommendations, which have been great. The donuts were amazing, can't wait to try some more. They were so fast, I didn't realize every donut is made fresh but you can definitely tell when you eat it.

    Fresh warm donuts at Fractured Prune! They have a variety of donuts to choose from, or you can create your own based on the glaze you want and the toppings. Everything it made fresh for you so they come out warm and soft. We also ordered a caramel latte and iced vanilla latte. Donuts were great and the coffee was ok. The size is small so it's easy to finish. Inside decor is also very cool!

    First time trying this spot as it was recommended by a local. Donuts were super good! Customer service was very unwelcoming and weird. Wouldn't go back to this location.

    Located at the end of a strip mall on Coastal Highway. Can't miss the signature purple and green!

    I was surprised that the Fractured Prune location at in a strip mall on Coastal Highway near 144th took this long to get on Yelp! My hunch is that people don't want to get the word out so that they can have all of these piping hot, custom glazed and topped donuts to themselves. First, let's talk through the name. In stores and on its website, Fractured Prune is explained as a nod to an OC resident Prunella Shriek from the late 1800s/early 1900s who owned land and played sports. She was sometimes injured from her assorted tennis/skiing/ass whooping Activities as she got older, so the folks around OC referred to her as "Fractured Prunella". As an older-than-millennial woman who visits Ocean City each year to play in a women's ball hockey tournament, I can relate to being a fractured female and appreciate the nod to a pioneer who went up against the guys when there weren't accessible "girl" sports. This location is just like the originals' decor with purple and lime green walls, a smiling fractured prune wearing shades, and of course, made-to-order donuts that jump right off the conveyer belt into the flavors of your choice. You have 19 glazes and 13 toppings, so there's bound to be something that appeals to you. Unless you're gluten free and health conscious. In that case, the fact that you've made it this far into this donut shop review is commendable. I always choose my own flavors instead of there suggested combinations (which do look good) and am never disappointed. This visit, I got one donut coated with peanut butter glaze, topped with Oreo cookie crumbs and chopped peanuts. The other was topped with chocolate and rainbow sprinkles. Fresh, fluffy cake donuts coated in goodness--they seem a tad smaller than a typical Dunkin Donuts donut, which is a great excuse to have at least two. ;) Not sure where the coffee is from, but it got rave reviews from the coffee snob in my group. Get it iced and take it to the beach with you! One thing that pleasantly surprised me is that even though this is a chain and there are already several locations, the people working the counter were super friendly and fast. Really glad to see that the quality at this outpost remains the same as the original. Always a treat to visit the Fractured Prune!

    dozen, made to order donuts!!

    This is my favorite Fractured Prune location in OCMD. We were in OC for 3 days and every morning we found ourselves walking over to our local Fractured Prune. My favorite are the Morning Buzz, Peppermint Patty, Pebble Beach, Death by Chocolate and, Blueberry Hill. Aside from the mouth watering donuts, the staff at this location are excellent. They were so helpful, kind and made efforts to remember our names each day we came back :) Definitely will be returning.

    This is the same owner as the super busy 127th st location. If you have a car, come up here instead. Same amazing doughnuts with no line. Kids that work here are quick and friendly. Be sure to leave them a damn tip.

    Visiting in the area and had a coupon for BOGO free donut. Donuts are warm and delicious! Staff is…read morenice and helpful. My husband and I have been twice! Highly recommend. Four stars because we were disappointed in the coffee selection. There is just three canisters, one caramel syrup pump and sugar sweeteners. Would have been nice to have some specialty coffees (latte, cappuccino, flavored coffees, etc.) to choose from!

    The family visited this place... We were shocked to find a line out the door and into the street…read moreupon arrival. Luckily it moved quickly. My husband whispered "This place was on the food network". I'm not surprised. The menu is bizarre. You can get a burger or chicken or egg on your donuts. Bleh. Even the donut donuts were over the top... like 5 toppings. But the family got a dozen (everyone else got like 1-2 donuts each and a lot of people were ordering their soft serve ice cream which we didn't try). Here are our reviews: 11 yr old: Score 3/10. They were OK. 13 yr old: Score 8/10. I liked them! Runner up to Fractured Prune. 54 yr old: Score 7/10. I liked them OK, a little better than Fractured Prune but I'm really a Dunkin man. 46 yr old: Score 1/10. Bleh. Like Bleh when I looked at the menu and BLEH when I looked at the donuts. I tried a couple pieces of a couple of them, and not one was enticing enough to actually desire to eat the whole thing. I'm a KK or DD fan too, and I only like 2 donuts made by FP, and they are the plainer ones. Note... they will do custom donuts, so if their suggestions are over the top, tell them what you want. They are cake donuts and there is a toppings bar (think: Subway) where you chose your glaze and toppings, and they make it in front of you. My issue was that sprinkles were in glazes, glazes in sugar, and it was all very messy. It kinda grossed me out. And there you have it. It's a novelty.

    TLDR: Liquid Assets is serving some of the best food in Ocean City, with creative small plates,…read moreexcellent whiskey cocktails, and a great liquor store built right into the experience. We stopped by for lunch shortly after arriving for our OCMD beach weekend and were thoroughly impressed by the caliber of food LA is dishing out. What started as a liquor store with a bar has evolved into a seriously good restaurant that stands out from the usual beach fare. Our table of four shared a bunch of small plates and a few larger dishes. We tried the steamed mussels, buffalo wings, tuna crisps, baked oysters, short rib pot pie, and Kung Pao calamari. The rich short rib pot pie was excellent, and we loved the baked oysters with aged cheddar, honey chipotle, and fresh chimichurri. Our favorite was the Kung Pao calamari, which had a great sweet Asian heat that made it a fun spin on the classic. We also ordered a round of cocktails, with the bourbon and whiskey based drinks being the favorites. The Wild Fashioned was especially good. Another great perk is that dining guests receive 10 percent off purchases from the attached liquor store. We happily took advantage and stocked up on Willett bourbon and Clase Azul tequila for the rest of the beach weekend. Overall, Liquid Assets is a great place to come for a drink or three with some elevated bites, especially when you are ready for a break from typical beach food. We will definitely be back.

    What a fantastic spot in North Ocean City. Liquid Assets easily has one of the most unique interior…read moresetups in town--you are literally dining at a rustic bar built right into the middle of a full throwback beer, wine, and liquor store. The ambiance alone makes it worth the visit. I stopped in for a late lunch and went with their Pick 2 lunch combo, pairing the Caesar salad with the cream of tomato soup. The Caesar was excellent: fresh, whole romaine hearts tossed in a nice tangy dressing, topped with flavorful brown bread croutons and a solid chunk of quality cheese. The cream of tomato soup was equally good, carrying over those same rich croutons and cheese to tie the meal together seamlessly. Service was top-notch as well--the bartender was friendly and welcoming, and the kitchen churned out the food impressively fast. Great spot all around; I will definitely be back.
