Someone brought these in for a birthday celebration at work. I only wish I had gotten to them first so I could see all of the varieties. The birthday girl grew up in Marysville and said these bring back memories of being a kid and picking out donuts on the weekend with her parents and siblings. As it turns out, when my parents lived in Zanesfield we drove by here lots of times but we never stopped in. If I knew then what I know now, I would've made them stop. The square donuts are pillowy glazed donuts but they don't have the sweetness that some other places have in the glaze. I also had the square donut with the chocolate frosting with cream in the middle. This turned out to be a cake donut.
I've been wanting to come here for decades. Literally. I drive past Marysville, or even right past the shop, all the time. Being a night person, it is never open when I come past. I finally had a chance to come in the morning, so I made it happen. It's a small, local bakery, and it's exactly what you would expect, and hope it would be. A counter where you can have coffee and donuts. A rack displaying dozens of fresh donuts. Friendly service, low prices, great treats. Are they the best donuts I've ever had? No, but they're in the top tier. They are of the "light and airy" style, closer to Krispie Kreme than Dunkin, and that's not my favorite- I like cakier donuts. But they are very good representatives of that style, and just darn good in general. I only wanted one or two, but they are cheap and they all looked good so I got a half dozen. The sour cream were the most cakey, and were still light (for a sour cream donut.) Super fresh, moist, mmm. I also tried a raspberry filled, which was great, a custard-topped which was excellent, and another I'm forgetting. I'll be back again, hopefully in less than 20 years. They've been around since the '20s according to the sign, so hopefully they will still be there. If you are a morning person, get there!
Very old fashioned, old school doughnut shop. You don't see these places anymore except in small towns out in the middle of nowhere. These doughnuts remind me of how they used to be made. The shop is open really early and doesn't stay open too long. If you want the best selection you'd better get there early as they sell out of certain ones rather quickly. It's a small, old ranch house in Marysville. There are a few parking spots and also a drive thru. When you open the door you are instantly transported back in time about 50 years. It smells so wonderful in here. It's a bit pricey for the small doughnuts, but I would say it's worth splurging once in awhile for a classic old fashioned doughnut.
I really thought this would be a 5 star donut experience! I had heard so much good about Mrs Renisons Donuts and seeing how one is 89 cent and a dozen $8 I had to get a full dozen. The girl working was nice and pulling up I was sure I would love it. Its another one of those tiny huts witha drive thru and is only opne till 12pm, meaning they make enough to only work a few hours a day. Good selection of the usual, but none really blew me away. I'm a huge lover of all donuts (except those from a grocery store) and these were definetly good, just not good enough to drive more than 10 minutes just to get them, I think even if I was in Marysville I wouldn't go back, I'd go up the street to the Ribbon Box, now THERES some good desserts for ya!
What a nice spot! We drove by on our way to breakfast and decided to make a quick detour. Got four donuts for around $4 so you can't beat the price. I thought the donuts were good. There were a ton of options and it was a little overwhelming. I got glazed (hard to mess that up) and one with a peanut butter filling. Definitely a spot to check out if you're in the area and don't want a chain donut!! Next time I'm in Marysville I'll be stopping by to try other kinds.
I stopped in while working nearby and picked up a half dozen, after asking the very friendly woman working the counter for recommendations. The square donuts with the round glob of filling are called mountaintops, and the one I selected had apple filling. The filling had a nice dose of cinnamon, and it was delicious. The 'crescent' donut was touted as a favorite, and it was quite good. I imagine it would be a great coffee dipping donut. Their sour cream donut is lovely, dense and flavorful. Their custard donut is the one dark spot from the visit. The yeast donut itself was great, flaky and tender, but the custard had an unpleasant tang to it I associate with the bulk order custard that comes in pails, never a plus at a bakery. Their 'turtle' donut was okay. It was more than just frosting and nuts it seemed; I thought I spotted a ribbon of cinnamon or something lurking in the donut itself. I would drop in again, for sure. These folks get up insanely early to bake these treats, and their dedication shows in the flavors and textures. There's no need for mass-produced donuts when a place like this is around.
I've not gone to a whole lot of places to buy donuts but I've tried a donut or two in my life and I can tell you this place is incredibly fantastic. I recently took a big box of donuts to a graduation party and everyone there raved about how fresh and delicious the donuts tasted. I had more than a few people ask me where I got the donuts. My personal favorite is the lemon filled pastry as it has just the perfect tartness versus sweetness. Although the hours are limited you need to get up to Mrs Renison's Donuts to give them a try if you're looking for an incredible breakfast donut to go with your java.

This place holds a place in my heart. My grandma use to grab donuts from here before coming to visit my family growing up. I never knew they were from here. Once I found out, I grew even more in love, especially since my grandma is no longer with us. My parents love these donuts too! I got the lemon donut for myself along with a berry flavored one. Both very good! read more
