    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.

    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!)

    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.

    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!

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

    I took my daughter to Starlight Donut Labs for some vegan donuts (she has an egg allergy and…read morefinding donuts she can eat is a struggle). Her review: The wait to order was not very long and the person we talked to was very nice. The donuts were DELICIOUS and very fresh. The store was cute and cozy . My review: the store is a small hole-in-the-wall place with side-street parking. There isn't a lot of space inside and you can't eat there. But, the donuts are AMAZING! There are so many vegan options, which I love as a vegan! The lady working the register was the very best! She was friendly and helpful. She was excited to have us try as many vegan options as possible and was passionate about all the flavors. The donuts are a true win and we will be back!!

    You won't like this, but it's the truth…read more I really wanted to like Starlight Donuts, but I honestly can't see myself ever going back. Between the ultra high prices and the ruined classics by making them vegan, why would I? There are tons of better donut places that are FAR more reasonably priced. Service was slow, and parking is basically nonexistent. At the end of the day, it's just not worth the hype. At all. The donuts are somewhat creative, sure, but creative doesn't automatically mean good. A lot of these combinations just don't work. It feels like they're taking the Holtman's approach, and we've already seen how well that worked out for them. Eggs and milk belong in a donut. Not weird oils and God knows what else. I appreciate offering vegan options for people who can't have a traditional donut, but don't force everyone into that trend or make it the standard. I wouldn't go back if they were $2 donuts. But $20 for four donuts is comical and here is your review. You got me once, though.

    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.

    This O.G. donut shop has been making classics since the 80's. No frou-frou flavors on this rack…read more Cake donuts are on the left and yeast on the right. The baker-owner recommends the buttermilk. He said "it's like crack, you'll be back." I'm more of a yeast guy, but that buttermilk is real nice. The icing makes a slightly crunchy outer shell that seals in the soft cake inside. The glazed yeast is a pillowy golden delight. With every bite my stomach kept making room for the next. Cooked to perfection, you can tell this donut legend has mastered his craft. The shop has a vintage bar where you can sit down for a dunker, fresh hot coffee, and small talk with the old-timers. Don't bother ordering a frappe or anything than rhymes with "appuccino." They offered a Colombian and Highlander roast. I prefer mine fresh, hot, and black. Stick around long enough and you'll get to enjoy the friendly banter between the owner and his regulars. Everyone who came through tipped generously. You can tell they appreciate their local staple. Like every small business, the owner is working through some staffing challenges so call ahead and make sure they're open during the listed hours. You won't be disappointed. This is one of the Queen City's best donuts!

    I thought i would retry it after sometime away. There wasn't much variety in donut selection…read more 2.20 a donut is outrageous! Miltons much better.
