The fractured prune is a must stop at least one of your morning in ocean city! If you like hot donuts, with a plethora of different flavored glazes like a raspberry coconut and chocolate chip donut, then this is the place for you. Honestly never tried a donut here that we haven't thoroughly enjoyed. read more

Fractured Prune - Donuts Near Me - Ocean City, Maryland

Stopped here for Saturday breakfast, grabbing a dozen and a t-shirt. The shirt comes with an extra donut so at the end of the transaction, it was a bakers dozen. I had the cherry chocolate, lemonade, pb cup, banana nut bread, and blueberry hill. There's not much to take away from here- just a solid business that churns thru customers. Really liked it here - which is my original first-ever Prune experience over 20years ago. read more

Really fresh donuts with lots of different choices. The donuts were so light and fluffy and the toppings were great. Got a half dozen with a few different selections. read more

Who the hell likes these undercooked greasy hot so everything just slides off it CRAP? Same as Sandy Pony or whatever that other crap place is called. Fresh donuts are great but made to order sloppy mushy donuts suck. Tiny too. read more

Fractured Prune - A tiny mushy slop of a donut. - Donuts Near Me - Ocean City, Maryland

Hello donut lovers! I am sadden to say that the location on Philadelphia Ave is so nasty. Every surface of the building was dirty, the dip bins, the floors, the station, the door, the windows. I even noticed flies having a party near the toppings. Once i realized I made a mistake, it was too late because I already paid and felt bad requesting a refund. I should've walked right out because now I am deathly afraid to consume. In addition they do not have all the donut flavors as advertised on the site so that was a bummer. Moral of the story...go at your own risk. Don't say I didn't warn you. Yikes! read more

I ordered a bunch of donuts for breakfast for our crew at the beach! The donuts were enjoyed by all! The flavors were written on the box cover in a list, so we had a hard time figuring out which one was which. read more

So very disappointed to see the condition of this location. Everything is dirty and run down. I can't believe it's still allowed to remain open in its current state. I'll give it two stars because the woman behind the counter was friendly, otherwise one star would be generous. read more

Donuts were great but why is place so dirty? Mouse traps by the door and all. Place looks like it opened in 2004 and was never cleaned or painted since. The tubs where they dip the donuts look like they never get cleaned either. read more

Fractured Prune 28th St Ocean City, blonde lady behind the counter, rude and unprofessional. The place was extremely dirty! If you want Fractured Prune go to the one in West O.C., 12507 Sunset Ave off of Stephen Decatur Hwy. Nicest people behind the counter and the store was immaculate! read more

Stopped by because our hotel was around and hI corner. This reminded me of ducks donuts in NJ... donuts made to order with sweet toppings. I tried the Black Forest topping which was actually quite good. The others in my group enjoyed their donuts too. Price was reasonable at around $2 each They were the perfect size... not too big and not too small. May not be sufficient by itself for breakfast but great for a snack. read more

First off the menu online says bagels are 4.99 and they charged 9.50 a basic plain bagel with nothing on it. Waited 30 minutes and still nothing, for a bagel...had to leave. 14th st. What a rip off. read more

I took a stroll over to get a couple of donuts before my husband woke up on his birthday. I anticipated getting four but was talked into 6 as it was more cost effective. I cost effectively ate 4 donuts that morning....shh! The donuts aren't huge but they are delicious! There are several options of glazes and toppings you can choose from by creating your own or pick the combinations suggested. I just chose some of the options off of the menu and did not create my own this time. I got there at a time that wasn't super busy so I had super quick service. I ordered the carnival, smyrna medley, lemonade, plain jane, banana nut and reeses peanut butter. All were super yummy and we had no left overs. read more

Fractured Prune - 1/2 dozen donuts - Donuts Near Me - Ocean City, Maryland

I have been going to Fractured Prune donuts at 127th St. for 25 years. Awesome donuts and freshly made and hot. This year the donuts are cold, fall apart, and the mini chocolate chips aren't even partially melted. The reason we go there is that you get hot donuts! Carefully carrying that box back to the condo with hot donuts made them the best. Now it tastes like the donuts were made yesterday bc they fall apart when you lift them. Disappointed. We knew the original owners when they opened. Sadly the last time was today for Fractured Prune read more

Change your hours on Yelp because it says you're open and I'm here at 0645 and the door says 8 am

Found blue plastic in my donut. Originally thought it was a blue Jimmie Till I realized it was thru out. I know it wasn't done intentionally but still, I wasn't happy about it. We usually get these every year, but quality has gone down. Tasteless like cooked in old oil, and I couldn't tell a flavor difference from banana to pb. I'm not sure if I'm just getting old or the novelty has worn off, but I don't think we will be getting them again. read more

There are two main things to know about The Fractured Prune, at least when it comes to this location. The first one is the donuts are amazing. They are cooked fresh and made to order while you wait. The second thing to note is you will probably have to wait in line a bit, but the employees work hard and it goes much faster than you would think. We went twice on our 3 day stay in Ocean City and weren't disappointed. I won't list every type of donut we tried but I have to give a special mention to the trail mix as it was my favorite. The donuts here are a little pricey, but if you're in ocean city you're used to it. You get a little off each donut by buying a half or a full dozen of donuts. But it's still $1.50 or so per donut. The people that worked at this one are all great and I highly recommend it. I will say that we walked from 41st street to 28th for our donuts and it was a great way to not feel guilty about eating 2 in a sitting. read more

SADNESS!! Thanks for the memories!! You have priced yourself out of customers! No more lines out the door. Horrible customer service. Yes the doughnuts are very good. But as a person that would get at least a dz EVERY day for a week this is just so over priced now that you've lost a LOYAL customer. The size of the doughnuts are small from the start and for what you get you cannot justify $2.98 for 1 not much the prices for 1/2 dz and a full dz Good luck to you guys!! You're gonna need it. read more

I'm sorry but I don't get the hype. We tried these donuts on a recent trip to OC, MD and I was not impressed at all. First of all, they are all the same flavor cake style donuts with different flavored icings/toppings. Secondly, the advertised draw or specialty is that they are served and iced warm which is such a ridiculous concept to me because the icing completely melts off! What is the point of that?! read more

I have an FP around the corner from me, and I used to work by one, yet I have never managed to go to one. Well, that has now changed, and I know I was missing out. So the donuts are basically the same style - regular donuts. Then they throw stuff on top for good measure and taste. The blueberry glaze on my donut was awesome, honestly...it was sweet and had a hint of blueberry flavor. The inside was warm and soft. Very good breakfast. My partner had an egg and cheese sandwich...which is served with a donut as the roll - genius. This location is small and only accepts cash, so take note. read more

I've been getting donuts here for years and they are always perfect! I love the history behind the business that they share with customers as well as the variety of flavors of donuts. The simple "OC Sand" has to be my favorite, but I've liked all the flavors I've tried here. Quick story: The last time I was here (7/10/18), I saw two deaf women in the store deciding what to order. When they stepped up to order, the staff was patient and did their best to make sure the orders were correct for them. I was surprised by just how professional and caring the staff was here. Keep it up! read more

Donuts were amazing. They were melt in your mouth and all the toppings tasted delicious. The workers got the job done and our donuts were ready in less than a minute, hot and fresh. It was so good I didn't even get a chance to get a picture. I got the Morning Buzz and it hit the spot. I ate mine when it was really hot and it was one of the best donuts I've ever had. I will say the restaurant was pretty humid and not super clean but I don't think anyone cares or has time to clean everything when you're selling hundreds of really delicious donuts a day. read more

Great cake donuts and your able to customize the donuts. They come out fresh and hot.

The Fractured Prune is hands down my favorite donut chain of all time and is a staple of every Ocean City MD/Delaware beaches vacation trip. This location in particular is located in the middle of a strip mall on Philadelphia Ave (ironic since I live an hour from Philly). For the longest time I believed this was the original Fractured Prune location and whether or not this is actually true it is the first location I visited years ago when I was a kid during one of many trips to Ocean City MD in the early 2000s. The first time I remember coming to this specific location myself was when I visited in 2009. I loved the shop on the inside and out, I even took a picture with my dozen donuts on the outside of the shop! Since then, I visited this location during a vacation in 2013 and more recently during a weekend vacation in October 2020 from the 9th-11th. Naturally the donuts didn't disappoint and I even recreated the photo from 2009! One thing I love about this location and the donuts is how consistent they have remained. My favorite donut is the Carnival but I also love the Caramel Kiss, French Toast, O.C. Sand, Peanut Butter Cup and the Plain Jane to name a few other favorites. There's still so many more combinations to try too! I know I'll keep visiting when I am in the area so I have plenty of time to try them all! read more

First I will say, our donuts were delicious! The service was great as well too. The young man who took our order was pleasant, and even made some jokes! The reason I gave 4 stars is because the different locations all had different hours which was so confusing! We tried to go here 2 days in a row, but Google would say one time and we would get there and the place was already closed for the day. read more

Perfect, tiny size donut! Warm and fresh! Wish they opened a little earlier but still worth the wait.

Perfect spot for a quick, delicious morning treat. When I'm vacationing in Ocean City with friends, sometimes you just want to get right down to the beach bars! Sure, there are a bunch of great traditional breakfast spots in town, but when you're about to embark on a long day of drinking and bar hopping, having a big, heavy breakfast in your stomach can really put a damper on things. So for a quick morning pick-me-up, nothing beats the Fractured Prune! Grab a doughnut or two, an iced coffee or an apple juice, and take your breakfast to go as you make your way down the boardwalk. And the doughnuts really are fantastic. These little babies will give you a nice sugar rush to kick-start your AM and tide you over until you get to your pool bar of choice. read more

While I was in Ocean City I kept seeing different locations and there was always a line. This got me curious and I had to try them. I was so full when I came here but it was our last day and I didn't want to leave OC without trying them so I bought half a dozen for the road. They smelled so good and were hot that I couldn't resist and ended up eating one before getting to the car. All were really good and fresh. I love how you can mix and match different toppings to your liking. I love coconut so the banana, coconut, cinnamon mix was my ultimate favorite. I think I could just sit and eat 10 of them since they were so good. I hope they open a chain in NYC soon so I can enjoy them more often. read more

My friend and I walked in to get just two donuts, the next day we went back and got 7 more. This place looks like your typical beach city donut shop. Just walk in and order some freshly made donuts. When I say fresh I mean literally fresh, made right in front of your eyes. From batter to fryer to various dipping sauces and toppings. We tried a whole bunch including the O.C. Sand and Strawberry Shortcake but my most memorable one was the Blueberry Hill. The donuts themselves are soft on the inside and have a nice mild crunch on the outside from them being freshly fried. The toppings all complemented each other which just enhanced everything about the donut. Nothing beats a hot sweet donut. read more

Made to order.... Topped as you wish and soooo yummy. Get the ones featured or get customized as you like. Negatives just a couple of plastic chairs... No tables.... So expect to sit in your car or somewhere else.... Cause there just isn't anywhere there. Other negative is that while these were awesome hot and fresh they don't hold well. The ones the next day we hadn't eaten were hard and yuck! So don't bother getting any for later.... Not worth it. Last negative is that they are small and a bit pricy but since we were vacationing it is what it is..... Ohhhh and they are CASH only!!! read more

Donuts are spectacular! My dad and I bought a dozen. The OC Sand is definitely the best. My second favorite was the blueberry. Personally, I like the top sugary part of the donut more than the actual donut. Sadly, I ate these right before parasailing 600 ft into the air and threw them up on the super shaky boat treading on the ocean. I don't advise! read more

I was looking forward to this place after all of the great reviews. It was only myself craving one at the time, so I only got one donut. I believe covered with chocolate and nuts. I really wanted a chocolate cake based donut, but I didn't see anything there, maybe I missed it. The donut was good. Very fresh and straight from the fryer. My issue with the donut I had was that it was a bit greasy, being straight from the fryer. My stomach usually doesn't agree with greasy foods in the morning, so eating one of these earlier, or god forbid two, would've given me a stomach ache. I wish there were lighter options, something similar to maybe a cruller?, but I will give it a shot during my next visit. My review is actually for the southern most location of Ocean Beach. Down on the boardwalk below 1st Street. read more

Donuts were the hand dipped while we waited. Service was quick. We recommend the strawberry shortcake and rolo.

Donuts made fresh to order with your choice of glaze and toppings. Niche idea and very creative, if a bit one note. Worth a try.

Amazing warm donuts made fresh right in front of you with many different glazes/ toppings!

Would love to review the food but never got into the door. We got the kids and dogs together for a nice morning stroll. We walked from our hotel to the location on 2808 Philadelphia Ave. we arrived and there were people inside but it didn't look busy. As I was reaching for the door handle a woman who works here opened it and stuck her head out. "We're closed, I don't have enough boxes". Surprised I responded "you're closed?" It was 8am. They only just opened at 7am! She then more forcefully says it again. "Closed, out of boxes." I just stared at her because I didn't even know what to respond with. She said "sorry, don't know what you want me to do." Then she slammed the door in my face. After that my 5 year old started to cry because the woman was "mean to mommy" and we looked for another location, walked back to the hotel and my husband drove to another spot. I've worked customer service my entire career (18 years) There are better ways to approach the situation. Even just with your tone of voice. Our first trip to OCMD and it wasn't a good start to the morning. read more

Great donuts, made fresh just the way you like. The staff was friendly and helpful. A must try for donut lovers.

Came here to grab donuts for a friend up in PA and I didn't know which one he liked so i ordered them all minus the plain one. Came out to 19 I picked the last 5 and took my boxes and paid the parking lot guys there share for free parking... noticed when I was at Pablo's bowls that I only got 17 instead of 24. Went back and they gave me an extra dozen for free to compensate. Turns out I didn't get the OC sand that my friend favors but he didn't care, he was happy to have the delicious assortment of donuts I brought him. Wait time was fast even though the line was super long. Donuts we're phenomenal, staff exceptional and friendly! Will definitely be returning later this year and this time I'll be more clear in what I want as I fumbled on my order! read more
