Stopped in this morning. First time here so we were looking forward to trying. We got a Bavarian Cream and a strawberry filled. They were having issues with their coffee machine and couldn't make an Americano, but they suggested their drip coffee-it was great,perfect with the sweet treats! Looking forward to our next visit! read more

WOW....what a donut extravaganza! They got all the good donuts, pastries, and coffees you need. Fun and fresh selection. Seating for hanging out on your laptop. Good parking for Cedar Falls main street area. Staff was friendly and fast. Only down side is the extremely high prices. $23 for a dozen of "regular" donuts...I chose 6 regulars and 2 special donuts and it was $36 before tip and taxes...Ouch! They were absolutely the best donuts I've ever eaten though :-) read more

The last 3 times I have tried going into your store you have either not had any gluten freeish donuts or someone decided to decorate them. I come to hurts at all different times of day. I enjoy stopping. Normally your staff are friendly but within the last month everytime I try to grab a donut they are out. Set aside for the next day for pick up. Or this last time I called ahead to see if you had any gluten freeish donuts available undecorated. I was told you had 3 but when I arrive they are all decorated with ingredients containing dairy. I have a gluten and dairy allergy and love being able to stop in but recently all I seem to do is walk out empty handed read more

Sat in line waiting to order for 17 minutes with no cashier while there was a worker in the back and the person that came to the front wasn't even the girl in the back so I sat there waiting for one single donut no line expected to get in and out but no 10 minutes later still standing there read more

i just want to mention that the old lady working tonight at sturgis falls, is very very rude, gave my friend a whole lot of unneccessary attitude because SHE had cups sitting out and my friend thought they were water cups and grabbed one. then she gave a dirty look to us and shook her head because my friend asked if she could pay for the cup.. like hello...? i think its this ladies bed time tbh send her home read more

I am a big fan of trying new donut shops and this place did not disappoint! They have so many fun flavors to choose from I had a hard time narrowing it down. A variety of filled, cake, raise, etc. It's such a cute shop too, a fun atmosphere and a good place to hang out! Staff was friendly and helped recommend some popular flavors. He recommended that jesús as it is most popular. It was like a churro and wow oh wow! Probably my favorite. We got six flavors: - jesús (churro) - salted caramel chocolate - blueberry glazed - peanut butter Oreo - classic sprinkled cake donut - red velvet My favorite has to be the salted caramel chocolate raised or the jesús, but all are exceptional! Plenty of parking as well. read more

Hurt's Donut? Yes please. I've visited a few voodoo donut locations around the country and Hurt's Donut makes voodoo seem like generic. Open 24/7. Is there ever a bad time to get a donut? The donuts are fresh and reasonably priced. There are so many flavors to choose from. A small location tucked away downtown, but this place definitely packs a donut punch. A definite must stop when visiting. I'll fall back on, is there ever a bad time to get a donut? read more

The donuts are great. I prefer the cinnamon roll tends to be a little pricey, but it's huge..

First of all, and most important ... the donuts are FRESH. We live in Ankeny, but travel LOTS, and whenever we are in Cedar Falls, we stop at Hurts Donuts at 100 E. 2nd Street. I'm attaching a pic, since there is no way for me to described in words the variety of donuts and pastries they carry. If you want to dine in, there are a few tables inside, and there is also a nice green space owned by the city that is nice to hang out by outside. And, here's a tip. If you're like us and had just finished a huge meal on the Parkade you may not feel like eating the donut just yet. If you're faced with a near 2 hr trip home in the car on an afternoon with high's in the low 90's ... do what we do. Bring along a small cooler when you leave the house in the morning, put just a bit of ice in the bottom (no need to load it up) and when you come out of Hurts Donuts, place the donuts in plastic zip lock baggies atop the ice (preferably in a tray) and drive home. Fresh as ever when you get home, without that mushy/melty issue. Here's a pic of the inside and of my "Homer" donut. read more

I love donuts and was excited to hear this company was making an emergency truck stop here. Preorder was easy enough. Donuts are higher priced than most but also larger. The pickup was in a very strange mutlifamily apartment complex rather than a more open space. But generally, it was efficient. People were friendly. Donuts...as shown, tried a bit of everything. Out of all, the apple fritter was the best and true to form, flavor. So many of the mixed dozen were cake donuts, which are not my thing. But, some had good flavor such as the streusel and the blueberry. Many toppings were soggy. The cinnamon rolls were bricks, not yeast, soft and minimal flavor. The maple bacon bars were ok but way underdone bacon. Unfortunately none of these was fresh that day, as any good donut should be. All in all, some better than others. But I'd just the same pick up a pack of donuts at Kwik Trip. I was really hoping for better. (Krispy Kreme would be ideal but we don't have anything local!) read more

Very turned off about the service we received here. When we got it, the gal asked us what she can get for us. Since we are from out of town and first time there, I said we are browsing around to see what flavors there were. We decided to check it out since we were looking at the other shops around there. A few seconds later, she asked if I knew how many donuts I was planning to buy. I told her I don't know yet since I just told her a few moments ago I was looking to see what the flavors were. My husband asked her why she's asking how many we plan to buy? She said so she knows how big of a box she'll need. Ok...? Weird. So after a couple mins, a different girl assisted me when I was ready to choose my flavors. Again, she also asked how many donuts I was going to buy so she can get the correct box size. Honestly, this made me not want to buy anything from here at all! Such a turn off. Why does it matter how many I'm going to buy? If I buy one, find a small box, if I buy a dozen, find a big box?! Ain't that difficult! read more

So good we had to stop on the way home! Great donuts, great service. Definitely stopping any time I pass through!

Pushy owner to buy merchandise, I understand running a business and promotion, but after I say no once I'd appreciate to not be bombarded a thousand times to buy something I said no to, it doesn't leave me wanting to return. As for the donut I got one I've had before, the Homer. A few bites in I noticed the typical vibrant pink, had changed to pale whiteish pink after being in the case and under the lighting so long, not exactly appealing. After already experiencing a mushy wet donut from improper frying, I don't think I could return here again. :/ read more

How does this place not have five stars?!? I was in town and stopped by. My friend and I both thought these were the best donuts we had eaten in a very long time! I was sad I got just one. So many flavors to choose from. My pb&j donut was full of flavor and fresh. Loved it! read more

Amazing, delicious donuts with a playful business atmosphere. Their donuts are extremely dense and extremely sweet, and amazingly delicious. Parking can be a pain because of the downtown location, and the donuts are priced like gourmet donuts, but it's definitely very delicious donuts that are outside the "typical" donuts you used to be able to get in Cedar Falls. I'm happy they're here! PROS: -Such an insanely large selection of fresh donuts. Filled donuts? They have them. Gluten-free-ish donuts? They have them. Regular cake donuts? Have them. Cake donuts with insane flavors like candy bars and cereal? Those too. These aren't just the standard donuts you tend to see at Hy-Vee and Wal-mart. They're like the "gourmet" selection that Hy-Vee offers - only way, way more options. -Employees have always been helpful too! They explain the donut organization system, what customer favorites are, and talk about how each one of the donuts taste. The woman behind the counter has always been patient with me and my inability to decide on things and has a ton of information about what they make. One time, I ordered a donut, and she popped in back to pull a fresh, just-iced donut for me instead of the one in the case. Amazing service. -They have a "Hurt's Donut" coupon t-shirt. Buy the t-shirt, and every time you wear it in, you qualify for a Buy One, Get One special. How awesome is that? -The donuts themselves are very, very satisfying. Honestly, unless you have a serious sweet tooth, you're going to find that one is more-than-enough. Their donuts are very dense - and amazingly covered in tons of sweet icing. There's nothing "healthy" about these donuts - just a serious sweetbomb. Even their cake donuts are a clear sugar experience. (They do offer some less-sweet options as well - though their expertise is clearly in the sugarbomb-experience). -They also sell a wide variety of drinks to go with your donuts as well. Soda, milks, and they offer coffee drinks here as well. -There's seating inside, but I imagine the majority of their customers take their donuts to go. They have high-top seating as well as regular, multi-chair tables. CONS: -Donuts are a bit expensive. Not horrendously so (and about on-par with the price you'd pay over at our Cedar-Falls-beloved Scratch Cupcakes too). And honestly, one donut is more-than-enough for most people. Everyone I've given a donut to ends up tapping out before they finish the one! -Located downtown in one of the "up and coming" areas without a dedicated parking lot: that's the problem in itself. Definitely expect to need to traverse to find a parking spot to make it to Hurt's - especially as it's next door to Urban Axe and Urban Pizza (two hopping businesses) and Second State Brewing. However, in the mornings, when most people are likely to want donuts in the first place, parking usually seems to be fine, and I can get a spot in front of the building. read more

I like the concept of specialty donuts a lot. And the donuts were supersized - so the premium pricing was easier to understand. Unfortunately, the donuts were NOT fresh. Clearly they had been sitting in the case for a LONG time. I asked if they had any freshly made donuts and was told "they've all been made in the last 24 hours". But when I asked were there any made in the last hour - I got a blank look and then a tepid "no" as the answer. I have eaten donuts in dozens of different places across the USA. I understand that they make them in batches. But no fresh donuts in a donut shop is very unusual. The counter help said come back tomorrow..."we probably will have some fresh then" Great concept. Wanted to like it. But poor execution. A specialty donut that costs $3.00 shouldn't be dried out. But we bought six - and every one was dry and tasted old. Too bad. read more

What's the point of being open 24 hours if you don't have any donuts to sell. Came in at 11:30 and had nothing.

I went here yesterday and the service was so nice and welcoming!! I got the classic homer donut and I expected it to be strawberry, but it was just plain. It was still amazing though read more

Hurt's Donut - The Homer donut - Donuts Near Me - Cedar Falls, Iowa

I first visited this establishment shortly after they opened and I honestly wasn't wowed. My anticipation for their opening was so much better than my first visit. So I was hesitant to stop in again. I'm so glad I did! My first visit they hardly had any variety of donuts. Probably because they were so busy. When I went last week they had so many donuts I could hardly choose! So many flavors, toppings and varieties I was like a kid in a candy store. The employee who helped us was so polite and friendly. You could tell she enjoyed her job. The donuts were huge and delicious! Yes a bit speedy but honestly you get what you pay for. I'm going to have to go again soon so I can try more flavors. read more

Staff weren't wearing masks during a pandemic. Donuts are pretty good with some fun flavors. The big draw is that they're almost always open. read more

If you want a donut that is out of the ordinary then this is it. Cool place to have a cup of coffee and relax.

The donuts were ok. Nothing to get too excited about. I am only giving this place 2 stars because of the staff. Yes I know, a lot of people do not care about the covid and its obvious these employees did not. We were assisted by 2 teenagers. Both had masks under their nose. The cashier asked the other teenage boy employee to make my coffee. Not only was he waring his mask below his knows, but he rubbed his nose and then continued to make my coffee with out washing, sanitizing his hands. Yuck. Both did not sanitize, wash their hands in between handeling money, food and in between costumers. read more

Alright so let me start off with the Doughnut Emergency Truck is the best thing I have seen for Doughnuts! However I can't eat them but my Fiancé and Daughter loved the order they got! They had a delivery come to Dysart and we were skeptical at first but went a ahead and paid the $15 for three apple fritters. When we went and picked them up at the local park it was very quick and easy orders were boxed up and ready to go I was there for all of 30 seconds they remained a distance away from us and had mask and gloves on. When we got home we opened the boxes and they fritter was the size of the box it could feed a family of three very easily! My fiancé and daughter shared two over the course of a week and the third one was for a friend. They worst part is someone I pregnant and wants another one already! read more

Good donuts. Not exactly cheap, but feels worth it for their specialty donuts. I love the coconut cream pie donut!

I've had Hurts donuts before at event and always thought they were good. We stopped in today for this first time and had an ok experience. On the positive side the place was nice, clean, big windows and open space. The staff were friendly although I think they could have been more helpful in explaining the different flavors or steering us in the right direction. They had a lot of choices but many were gone. Only one of the available staff was helping at the counter, as soon as someone came up behind us I felt rushed to decide. Many of the options seemed super sugary which I'm sure a lot of people love but I was looking for a something that wouldn't send me into diabetic shock lol. I'm certain kids are in heaven with the options available. I settled on a maple bacon because I enjoy maple & have never had maple bacon. It was good but the frosting was a bit grainy/gritty. Overall not bad but wouldn't make a special trip back. HyVee bakery has similar choices and I think we would prefer those but if you're looking for a place downtown this would be a nice spot to meet for coffee and enjoy a donut. read more

My friend bought me a Hurts donut today. Not good. Frosting is sugary store bought crap and the donut wasn't even cooked through the middle. Tasted day day old donut and it was bought the same day. Yuck! read more

The first time we went to Hurts we were enamored! Where else can you get coconut cream donuts, lemon cream, cherry pie, apple pie donuts and made so fresh? We loved it and the waitress was very friendly. Clean place... we were the only ones in there..... but second time was not very pleasant! The music was so loud we could barely hear each other talk across the table! We were not in a BAR so we were less than thrilled! The donuts tasted like a day old on this occasion! I asked them to please turn music down and she apologized and turned it down right away. We will go back but if a bad experience again, we won't give them another chance! read more
