The donuts are ok for the most part but extremely overpriced. Tried to get in contact with owner about a a fundraiser and never got a response. Way to support the community.

"Hurts So Good" John Cougar Mellencamp It was an ordinary, bitter cold January, Wednesday afternoon. About 3:00 PM To be exact. The second you walk in and are directed around the corner to the serpentine line of donut devotees, you immediately forget the single digit temperature outside because this new spot is HOT! They're on fire 'cuz they gots the goods! Inside has moderate seating, so grab a spot quickly. Among the colorful ice cream parlor style chairs, tables, and hi-tops, they have a wall with swing seats up to a built-in table shelf. The staff were all very friendly. The line moved moderately fast. I was maybe 15 people deep ad that took about 15-ish minutes to get through. I'll have more on this, coming up, in the Pro Tip section. But up next, we got to get to the goods. And good they are. My order: Old Fashioned ×2 Glazed Round Bavarian Cream Mint Oreo™ Chocolate Cake Round Glazed Red Velvet Cake Round Apple Fritter Chocolate Chip Cookie Total: $26.50 is I sat down and sampled* a few. First up, Bavarian Cream Round. Goodness all around. Could have used a touch more cream. But, dee-li-pious! Next up, Old Fashioned Round. Moist, sweet, and just the right amount of crunch and pull to it. Not dry and crumbly. They do have a full hot and iced coffee bar, including many flavor options along with fountain drinks. On the counter, I spotted bags of their own House Coffee to take home. I did not partake in any beverages on this visit. At home, the true sampling continued. Mint Oreo™ was good. Glazed Round was excellent. Cookie was good. Keep in mind, though - CCC's can be made a million different ways. If we're being honest, we all have a specific CCC that we prefer. So you'll either love it, hate it, or anywhere in between. The Apple Fritter was a tough judge. It was good, and it's truly a shareable item for normal people. But maybe it's too big. I found it was lacking that real hit of gooey chunky apple-y splodhes on the top, just under that subtle, almost brulee crunch type of glaze. I wood say it was a good Fritter. But if you're a member of the globally sanctioned International Fritter Fanatic Federation**, you might not deem it great. What it is great for is a coffee get-together. Grab a Fritter and a Cinnamon Roll, and you'll be the hit of the party. Would I go back? Oh, yeah. It's nowhere near me, but it is close to where I get my hair cut. I always like to bring the girls donuts when I go in. This'll be a good secondary option. If you've ever read any of my donut shop reviews before, you know I take Donuts very seriously. Almost too seriously. Hurts even got my 5th Star that I don't simply toss around to just any old donut shack. That said, my litmus test staple is a chocolate frosted vanilla cake donut. That is my star test right there. You're not going to find many "basic" donuts here. You'll find a lot of fancy, themed and clever donuts with a few standards mixed in. Also, I believe they're a 24/7 shop. I guarantee a past midnight visit in the near future and post some pics to prove it. Pro Tip: This is for the guy who waited in line as long as the rest of us and decided to have a spa day picking his order out. Obviously, there's a lot to choose from. It can be overwhelming. That really wasn't the issue here. This guy was taking pictures of the counters, texting them to his family and / or his friends, and waiting for their responses on what they wanted him to bring back. He also seemed to know the guy behind the counter that was serving him, so there was a bit of friendly banter chitchat while he was waiting for his text responses. In total, he took just over 10 minutes to pick his order. Not cool when you've got a serpentined line going throughout the entire place of people behind you, knowing what they're going to get who are ready to go. The point? You're going to be in line. Take that time and use it to your advantage. Be ready when you get to that counter and know what you want. * - Sample meaning ate both of those donuts completely. Don't judge me! You try not to eat them! ** - The I.F.F.F., or I triple F, or I F³, does not really exist. Until Scorsese makes a movie about it, anyone who claims to be part of any such NON EXISTING organization is talking out of their donut hole. Got it? Those are hard-working guys who work in sanitation or for the city water department....or construction. Capiche?!?! But, you know..... a globally sanctioned International Fritter Fanatic Federation might not just be a bad idea after all. Hmmm... I might, just might, be writing a letter to someone about this...... read more

Bit of a line (moves pretty fast though) but likely due to initial opening weeks. Bonus is it's open 24/7 and they have more options than any place in the area. Win. Everything is fresh and handmade. Seating inside is ample and there are swings for seating which is helpful for kids (and adults too!). Drive thru was open but most people went inside. Slightly on the pricier side-- 5$ for an apple fritter! They also have ice cream if you aren't into donut indulgences but prefer a frozen treat. Also there's the opportunity to make a donut ice cream sandwich with their ice creams! Friendly service. read more

This place is legit! We came here for Valentine's Day to treat our office and this place didn't disappoint. Your inner kid will be very happy you came in. They have an amazing donut selection, cinnamon rolls, cookies, icecream and even espresso drinks. We got 6 dozen donuts and a few drinks. The cherry old fashion was my favorite. Their coconut is a little weird so that's our only complaint. All the other flavors sooooooo good. Also wish the swing chairs would actually swing lol but I understand why. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend read more

Such a neat place with so many unique donuts! You can smell the sweetness as soon as you walk in. Upon walking in, you are instantly greeted with colorful artwork on the entry way walls. The staff was so patient and friendly answering my questions about what each flavors are. They were amazing! Packed with flavors and the texture of the donut was light and fluffy! Can't wait to go back to try their bacon and maple! Highly recommend. read more

Barely any flavor and tasted like it had been sitting out for at least a day, way overhyped

So good! Real crowd pleasers. Can't go wrong with Hurts! Great selection. Great staff too!

Ok, so for those that don't know me I need to explain a few things. 1: I'm opinionated and I think there's a right way to do almost everything. 2: I spent 25 years in the Food & Beverage industry including managing two bakeries. 3: I consider doughnut making to be an art and one of the hardest things I've ever learned. (Seriously, you need to have knowledge of chemistry and biology to get it right). That said... Come here. They're doing it right. Yeast is a fickle friend and getting those things to come out JUST right takes both knowledge & practice. Someone in the back of the house there has a lot of both because their soft, pillowy creations are as good as it gets. The cake doughnuts, likewise, are definitely on point. The atmosphere here is fun which is a great departure from the usual. Most doughnut shops feel sterile. Like a hospital... harsh lights, shiny surfaces and austere monochromatic walls. Not here! It's festive and colorful and cheerful. The walls look like a group of street artists from Sesame Street (they do have a doughnut dedicated to Cookie) went to town with spray paint. The restroom is very clean and very cool. You'll see what I mean. The staff is polite, efficient, helpful & knowledgeable. Second day open at the crossroads of NE Cincy next to one of the busiest intersections you're likely to ever see during drive time (I popped in at 8am) and I was in & out in a little over five minutes. WELL DONE! Some notes for your first visit. Go to the website, look at the menu and know your order ahead of time. Being faced with that tidal wave of confections is overwhelming. If I hadn't been given marching orders from the family I'd have spent half an hour taking it all in before ordering. The cinnamon rolls and apple fritters are a family project. NOT for solo consumption. You have been warned. (See my pic) Love this place! read more

Hurts Donut - Hurts Donut Apple Fritter. I swear it's bigger than my daughter was when she was born. - Donuts Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

If you love delicious donuts and want them at odd hours of the day? Then this place is where you need to go. Open 24 hours a day 7 days a week, or as they say 25hrs a day 8 days a week, you can satisfy that craving any time it arises. With well over 60 flavors you will find something for everyone and they will like it. Freshly made donuts delight the soul and these donuts are freshly made throughout the day. Set up like no donut shop you've ever seen before they have plenty of seating and swings also. The staff were all very nice though it was busy and they made sure we left happy. Tips to make your visit a success: 1) Busy is an understatement. The Line wrapped around the store we went and even though it moved fairly quick we still waited an hour in line to get our donuts. We went at 8pm on a Saturday so go at a really off time or be prepared to wait is all i can say. 2) More than just donuts. They serve hot drinks and ice cream and even milkshakes. So you may go for the donuts buy try all the things. Make your way to Hurts donuts and enjoy a wide variety of tasty treats!! read more

Our family LOVES donuts especially unique ones. We were super excited to see a new donut place in Mason that's open 24 hours. We arrived around 7:30 am and had about a 15-20 minute wait. The donuts tasted so good and fresh. There were so many to choose from. Could be overwhelming for some so you may want to check out their menu ahead of time. My daughter liked her hot chocolate but I wasn't too impressed with the caramel macchiato but honestly I wasn't there for the coffee. They also serve hand dipped ice cream. read more

Way overpriced and over hyped donuts. Almost $40 for a dozen and 1 cinnamon roll. The cake donuts tastes stale. The birthday cake donut had this weird lemon flavor. My husband and I were not fans. Also staff wasn't friendly at all, I picked a donut and the worker said you already picked that one! Like was I not allowed to have two of that kind lol Definitely won't be back. Update: I ate some of the cinnamon roll today and where's the cinnamon flavor?! It's just a bunch hunk of flavorless dough that I paid $7.00 for never again will I waste my money here. This place seems more for Instagram pictures than good tasting doughnuts. read more

The name is a red flag. These are sad bruises and bandaged donuts. The a dehydrated and dry. The icing is wet and grainy. This is a production donut that lacks the sophistication of a donut master. Basically these are Dunkin Donuts just bigger....gross. You are better off going down the road a few exits to Silverton Donuts, you're welcome. read more

I wanted to see what all the excitement was about, so my husband and I stopped by at about 8PM on a Thursday night to try a Hurts Donut :). We'd been doing some shopping in the area and were coming from the east/Costco area, so it was convenient to come down Governor's Way. I pulled into the first driveway. There are some parking spots on this side of the lot. We drove to the back of the lot to get to the other side of the building. The drive-thru in in the back, and there is no way to get around the building in the back. So I turned around. Well, in the front of the building the Hurts Donut truck is parked, blocking the way to the main parking area. The driveway I entered has an arrow showing it is only for entering the lot. It is not wide enough to allow for entering and leaving. I didn't have a choice. I tried to leave using that driveway. A car wanted to enter, so I had to back up. This is unsafe, especially at night. Thus, the one star deduction. When we finally parked and were able to get a few donuts, we were very happy with the freshness and taste. They were very moist on the inside and had a nice crunch on the outside. However, they need to resolve the parking lot problem! read more

Hurts Donut - Our favorite was the old fashioned! - Donuts Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

Plain glazed were just okay. Husband said his red velvet with icing was overly sweet and he couldn't eat it (and he typically likes things sweeter than I do), but the plain red velvet was fine. Most flavors and toppings seemed geared towards kids. Staff was friendly. Store was clean and colorful. Not our cup of tea but obviously others feel differently. We'll go back to Bill's Donuts. read more

I work basically in front of this one. I have a very particular donut palette. I like the cake portion semi sweet and the toppings not overwhelming on it. This place has a great balance. The donuts have a firm, but soft, cake. The toppings are meticulously installed on top of the donuts(not a big mess!). I had tried to go for days but the excitement crowd was overwhelming. I brought my team 2 boxes though coming in when the populous was sleeping. Super clean and the staff is very pleasant. If you want a well balanced donut l, this is the place. My advice is to go when you don't want to so you can get in and out. Cheers!! read more

What better way to spend a spontaneous late night with friends than to pack up in a car and head to a 24/7 donut shop? We heard that this place just opened and it is such a relief as a night owl to be able to go somewhere besides Waffle House or White Castle for a night drive and some snacks. The decor is a retro/comic theme which they did an excellent job at! I hope to update this post with more photos of the decor. They had a swing set for photos and very colorful walls which provided a friendly and upbeat atmosphere. The donut selection was a lot for 1-2 AM in the morning. There were a lot of varieties of plain donuts as well as filled/ cereal topped and other unique varieties. They also had a section for specialty deserts like giant cinnamon rolls topped with strawberries or a bear claw that was definitely larger than my head. As someone who prefers plain donuts, I took my pick and was throughly satisfied with the flavor and texture. After taking them home and microwaving it to the perfect temperature I was delighted. I'll definitely be back if I ever have a sweet tooth again. It is good to know that there is a 24 hour donut shop close by. read more

Thank y'all so much for being open 24 hours. I can't tell you how many times I've gone here for a late night craving. The place is so adorable with swings and neat wall art.

Hurts Donut - Donuts Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

Hurts has good to very good donuts at a very high price with a very long wait. I finally was able to get donuts at Hurts on Saturday, 1/20, at 6:30am (with fresh snow and 5 degrees outside). I tried several times prior to this, but the line/wait was too long. I was here the previous Sunday at 7:45am, but after standing inside in line for 20 minutes and seeing only 3 customers get donuts I left and went to the nearby Kroger for Buskin donuts and pastries. On Saturday, I was 5th in line and it still took 15 minutes to get to the counter. They had only one person serving customers, another person filling boxes with the standard Hurts Dozen, and others restocking donuts. The lines are slow primarily due to customers being overwhelmed at the huge selection instead of making a list ahead of time using Hurts' menu on their website. I ordered a Maple Bacon Bar ($5), Chocolate Iced Long John ($3.50, and it does not come with a cream filling), Glazed Yeast donut ($2.25), Old Fashioned donut (a.k.a., sour cream) ($2.80), and a Chocolate Iced Chocolate Cake donut ($2.80) for a total of $16.35 before tip. Overall, I would say that the ones I got were good to very good, but not great, and definitely not worth the price compared to getting similar donuts elsewhere for a much lower price. I'm glad I tried Hurts, and I might try it again in 6 months to try a Cinnamon Roll and Apple Fritter after the novelty of the new location wears off, but in the meantime, I will get just as good, if not better, donuts from Buskin (at Kroger for $1.79 each) and Graeter's for less price and significantly less, if any, wait. Plus, I can get a variety of danish at the other places, but cannot at Hurts. read more

Such a cute,vibrant shop. From the fruity pebble donuts to the cartoon style wall art and swings in the seating area the whole place makes you have a sense of fun and COLOR! Maybe because it's so new and trendy be prepared for a wait. But that wait tells you it's worth it. You'll have time to browse the menu- it's pretty large! Lots of drinks options too. You can get a latte, coffee, hot chocolate, donut milkshake and vanilla, chocolate and strawberry milk. They also had some flavored protein milks available. Not in the mood for a donut? There's also a selection of fresh ice cream, cookies, fritters, cinnamon rolls, and whoopie pies. You can buy single donuts, a half dozen or full and they have options like picking your favorites or going with the signature flavors. For the adventurous few there is a "Big mouth" challenge. $20 for a 3 pound donut - you only have 90seconds to eat it all. Succeed and you get the donut free and a tshirt that works as a buy one get one free coupon for life. As of this post no one has tried it at the Mason location. Up for the challenge? You do have to sign up 3 days in advance. Donut selection was so fun and staff was so very friendly and patient with the huge crowd. Biggest surprise, they are open 24hrs,so Check them out! read more

If you like donuts, then you must go to Hurts Donuts. A massive variety of donuts are here every day and they are done to perfection. This is instantly my favorite donut shop in the Cincinnati region and I have been to almost all of them. The flavors and attention to detail on the donuts are second to none. 10 out of 10 stars here. Hurts Donuts is also an experience in itself as everything is done in a colorful and lighthearted way with a very fun and colorful interior. Humor is everywhere with this place. From the emergency donut vehicle parked out front to the colorful T-shirts. Everything is lighthearted. Buy a T-shirt and every time you wear it into the shop you will get a free doughnut. You absolutely have to check out this place. read more

We are a big donut family. We were in the area and decided to get some donuts. They had a huge selection and the kids were very excited. However, the donuts themselves were not good.
