Always fun to make the late evening run for some Krumpee's donuts. Just a small alleyway location where you can get some hot and flavorful donuts. I think the fun is the waiting and the actually receiving of the donuts. Small operation but worth the wait. This was our post Thanksgiving run of $60 worth of fried goodness. I'll be back! read more

Never ever have I had such superb, light, fluffy, decadent donuts until I tasted these!! When eating these I feel like a kid who is misbehaving... they are so good the must be bad for me... I don't care give me more Krumpe's!!!!!!! read more

Get on the bandwagon - it is THAT good. I know, right? Yelp had recommended it to me. An old college friend visiting me in BALTIMORE said "oh, maybe I can get to Krumpe's since it's only an hour away!" What? it's just a donut shop. I had to find out how good they were. So when the family and I happened to be in the area, we stopped in. First off, it's small. Like, more-than-six-people-inside-feels-crowded small. They'll hand you a menu with the different flavors and types. They were friendly and patient. The prices are reasonable. Being our first time and having that FOMO, we got a dozen with a variety. Every single donut was delicious. A standout for me was the special of the month - chocolate chip cookie - which had a delicious cookie butter cream in it. Make this part of the regular rotation, Krumpe's! I also thoroughly enjoyed the peanut twist. So what's so great about the donuts? I think that the shop is only open 4 hours a night and is so popular that the donuts keep turning over means FRESH, often slightly warm, donuts. On top of that, the texture. They're light but pleasantly chewy, not doughy like what some other donut shops churn out. Pro-tips: First off, they offer a cheaper price if you pay cash. Second, it's down an alley. Don't be spooked; it's well-lit and there are so many people around also there to get donuts. I was surprised that the alley had a few spots to park as well. We parked on the street just outside the shop and as we ate our donuts in the car, we watched people of all walks of life heading for the thing that unites us all: we love donuts and Krumpe's is our standard bearer. Next time you're in the Hagerstown area in the evening, drop in for some awesome donuts. read more

It was wonderful meeting my old friend, Fred Krumpe at the late night Do-nut sale at the store. Incredible people making some of the best all around donuts available in the area! If you've not had the opportunity to stop by before 11pm at Do-but alley you must make it a "Moral Imperative!" Get there early or you have to pick from what's left, which is amazing great too! Great customer service in a warm friendly location! Stop by and enjoy 1 or a dozen! read more

Peaches & Cream Light and fluffy cream. The donut was soft. Fresh peach slice on top. I love this seasonal flavor. Peanut Butter Twist Great peanut butter glaze over their soft donut. I love this local favorite place! All of the donuts are freshly made and not overly sweet. Note that they are only open in the evenings. #CynBitesThisFeedsMySoulStatus read more

Very unique, small shop tucked into a quiet street. We arrived right as the store was opening at 7 PM, and there was already a line at the door. Quite a few donuts to choose from. The special of the month was a peaches and cream doughnut. I was a little surprised that the donuts were small, but my waistline thanked me. All were very good! read more

Was in the area for work & stumbled upon this wonderful small donuts shop located behind a bakery. I stopped by, bought a quick half dozen & was pleasantly surprised. With classics like jelly filled, glazed, powdered & cream filled. They were all delicious but they usually have a donut of the month & that months was the snickers which was really good. The employees were polite, quick & informative when I asked questions as it was my first time there. Seems like when there is good weather they can be a bit busy, with a line our the door. They open at 7pm which I thought was wonderful and a bit of charm for this small local shop that seems to have a huge following with their locals. Will always make sure to stop in when I'm in the area read more

I'm visiting the area and my cousin brought this into my life. I was told (but didn't see myself) that supplies can run low quickly due to high demand. So it is important to get there ASAP to get a better variety. I'm definitely pleased read more

We were recommended to come by a Hagerstowner and we were not disappointed. It's a bit strange hours and a strange place to find parking BUT they were so nice, they gave us newbies a donut each and their special filled donuts were only 4.69 for half a dozen!! Was so surprised and happy. The Apple one was amazing, we also got the special monthly pumpkin cake one, the chocolate donut, and raspberry filled donuts which I'm saving for later. Would definitely recommend and would definitely be back!! read more

The best donuts in Maryland hands down!!!! Best bakery in Hagerstown. Recommend to everyone! Will be back every week :)

Worth the trip! Amazing donuts, among the best I've ever had. Inexpensive, crispy, and very flavorful almost like funnel cake or beignets.

They have the BEST donuts! We were in the area for a short vacation and got to stop by here on night. We are glad we did as they make the best donuts we have ever had. read more

I love everything about this place. The atmosphere and weird hours make it feel like some secret spot known only to the locals. For how long the line gets it moves pretty fast! I've been multiple times and my donuts are fresh and soft every single time and there is just no beating the prices. read more

Neatest little place with the best and very fresh donuts. You get a free donut on your first visit.

Yum yum yum.... They are small, but so yummy. Prefer the cake donuts .... Donuts should have holes!

Wow. Just, Wow. Since 1936, Krumpe's has been serving Hagerstown one of the most delicious treats for miles around. People come from miles and miles away, stand in long lines in all of the elements of weather and have been doing this for generations. All for the famous, Krumpe's do-nuts. I'm not a native to the area but I am there frequently on business. Some of my local coworkers introduced me to this gem. I have gone over and over again. I have taken family, friends and customers alike to this one of a kind amazing destination. It's not like your typical donut shop. It's very small, it's in an alley that was literally named Donut Alley. You'll find a small non descript store front. You will also surely find a line of people waiting for the goods. Good old fashioned traditional donuts. Tasty creations that wind up being the donut of the month. The most solid donut shop that I can say I've ever been to. The best part is, it's incredibly affordable. For being some of the best donuts I've ever had in my life, the price point doesn't match the goodness. They are extremely cheap. I almost feel like I'm ripping somebody off. Would I go back? Absolutely. Often, all too often and way too often. I can't stay away from this place when I am in town. Now you need to know that they have quirky hours. They're only open from 7 PM to 11 PM. That's the only window of opportunity you have, each night, to get the goods. Don't miss out. If you're in the area, and you have the time, this is a must. If you don't have the time, make the time! I guarantee that you won't regret it. read more

Donuts are great and it's a local staple that's reasonably priced. Line gets really long so expect a wait

Amazing donuts in a hidden alley. Worth the short wait and will definitely be back the next time I am in the area. Raspberry filled are the best! read more

My golly, good mighty! This little gem of a place is only open 7-11PM but goodness is it worth every minute to stand in line for some fresh hot donuts! The donut holes are my fave as you just pop them Suckers in your mouth and they just melt and you're in a life full of donut delish! Sad I don't live in Hagerstown and I wish the bf could bring some down to SC but eating them next day just isn't the same. read more

I'm glad the cupcake craze of the last decade is over. I never understood the concept of paying $5 for a small pastry which was consumed in 4 bites. But within the last couple of years, it seems like the "artisanal donut" fad is upon us. With places like Duck Donuts, Sugar Shack, and Astro Donuts and Fried Chicken, it is now in vogue (and acceptable) to charge upwards of $3 for fried dough. Well, I'm here to say Krumpe's DO-Nut Shop in Hagerstown might very well be the BEST purveyor of donuts in the entire DMW. Granted Hagerstown is about an hour's drive from downtown DC, but trust me friends, it's worth it! And when Krumpe's is described as a "hidden gem," take it literally. Your GPS will take you through different twists and turns and you'll likely pass by this establishment a few times, since it is located in a small back alley which is hard to miss; just look for the street signs indicating "Donut Alley". And there is a protocol to getting donuts at Krumpe's. First, the place is only open from 7pm-2am. Yep, seems like odd hours, but from the time the doors open to when they close, there is usually line out the door of this small shack with people in search of fresh donuts. Secondly, because there are hardly any parking spots, don't dilly-dally if you're lucky enough to get a spot. KNOW WHAT YOU ARE GOING TO ORDER AHEAD OF TIME. Here's a link from their website with their sumptuous offerings: http://krumpesdonuts.com/do-nuts/ And lastly, do yourself a favor and order the dozen. Donuts here start under a dollar for the plain glazed and go up from there. I ordered a few glazed, some of the Bavarian filled, and some chocolate cake donuts. As you're standing in line, you can see the army of workers in the back, frying batch after batch, and then applying the various glazes and toppings. Once you get your fried treasures, hop in your car, and vacate the spot for the next hungry patron. But just drive out of the alley, pull over, and enjoy a few bites. Mmmm...will be your first reaction. The donuts are pillowy soft and clouds of steam will escape with each bite. The texture is excellent, and the glazes are not too sweet. I'm lucky I don't live near Krumpe's, otherwise, I'd definitely put on an extra 10 lbs from my daily donut habit. This is definitely a must do, if you're visiting Hagerstown. TIP: If you mention that this is your first visit to Krumpe's, they will give you a free plain glazed donut to try!!! read more

Krumpe's DO-Nut Shop is the bomb! They are open 7 PM to 2 AM. So many freshly made donuts when you walk through the door you think you have died and gone to donut heaven. My niece and I ordered 12 donuts (but we only had a few each lol), several plain glazed which melt in your mouth like little clouds. The total was $7 and some change. We ordered a couple of raspberry filled with powdered sugar. These donuts are addicting lol! I also had a glazed stuffed with white cream filling and chocolate icing on top. Out of the three I tried my favorite was the plain glazed because you can microwave it for 6-8 seconds and bring it back to life. But it helps to put them in a baggy when you get home to keep them fresh! We arrived at 10:30 PM, just before the crowd. It's hard to pick which donuts to buy because there are so many to choose from and they are all delicious! You can't go wrong by making a late night run to Krumpe's! read more

Good donuts and soft!! Line went fast price was good. Friendly service! If back in the area will return!

What an interesting hidden gem this place is! The donuts were on the smaller side but I think the history of this place and the lightness of the dough makes this experience a unique one. I'd definitely be back when I'm next in town! read more

They are so good that we regularly drive 80 minutes round trip and buy from a dozen to one and a half dozen. My families personal favorite is the raisin donut. No matter what it is super cheap and there is not a single donut that our family has not had and disliked. Need to try the twists and especially the powdered twist. They are always fresh and perfect flavor. They have really nice workers and the line goes really quickly if there is a line. They are very informative about the donuts and have multiple menus. Overall better than any donut shop I have ever had. read more

Wow my first experience at Krumpe's and certainly not my last. It's such a hole in the wall, you may get turned around finding it. They are only open at night, but it is so worth the wait. These are some of the best donuts I have ever tasted. You can't go wrong with any selection, as they are made daily. So fresh. My favorite is the cake style donuts! read more

These are the tastiest, freshest donuts you will ever eat! Just get over the fact that you buy them from a back alley in the middle of the night... It's worth the sketch factor!!! Get the glazed donuts right out of the glazing bath... They are warm and go down like butta; you'll have downed three before you even realize it. read more

Best donuts around here. Almost as good as Shipleys in Houston. Would be better if they were open during the day hours instead of just night time. read more

This is one of the best donut shops I have been to. If you want certain kinds of desserts, you need to call in before they open to make sure they'll have them because they sell out. The donuts are light and not-over-sweet, so they are basically perfection. You can eat a few and not feel like you just got diabeetus. I think all of them are worth trying and even the plain ones are delicious! Their eclairs are really great if you can get your hands on them. read more

Great doughnuts! But I didn't feel like a Patron, but a burden!! ... Wasn't so friendly; kind of bossy as well! Not the entire crew, but tall girl with white dirty apron; who was visibly seen with gloves touching apron, boxes, cooking equipment and doughnuts without any awareness of foodborne sanitation practices. I believe that turned me away from ever coming here again. read more

My husband brought back some of these donuts after a work meeting because he knows how much I love donuts. While these aren't anything fancy, they are GOOD and authentic. Gently crisp on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. The glazed and chocolate glazed were my favorite - not overly sweet and sugary but amazing flavor and bliss in your mouth. We also tried the powdered sugar and cinnamon sugar - all were delicious, you can't go wrong! Whenever we are in Hagerstown we will be coming back here. read more

I've been going to Krumpe's for 50+ years and it's always great. In fact, I'm heading over there in a few minutes to pick up a dozen.

Amazing local donuts. This has been a Hagerstown staple for decades. It's worth waiting in Donut Alley in all sorts of weather just for some hot warm Krumpees! read more

I came for fastnacht day and they didn't disappoint! It was extremely efficient with a line around the corner I only waited like 15 minutes tops and that includes how long I waited once I ordered. The fastnacht was the only option they do for the day but they were yummy! To think I may live closer soon...I may become a regular lol. Overall, I definitely recommend. I understand why they are a town staple. read more
