Customer Reviews

Great family owned shop. We love their donuts, always fresh made to order. We love trying all the flavors but always come back to the OC sand! Their breakfast wraps and sandwiches are also a hit!

Probably the best donut I?ve ever had. We aren?t locals and took a little extra time with the menu and the person taking our order couldn?t have been sweeter! She really helped us out. Must try the blueberry streusel donut. Tastes like heaven! Cold brew is delicious too and so many flavors to choose from.

Cool donut shop. Donuts are kind of expensive. The staff was great. There is some outside seating. Like most places in Sea Isle, you can pay to park or get lucky and find a spot.

Hot fresh doughnuts are always the best and these are no different. Love all the flavors available, lover the blueberry hill and nutella churro. Got the Prunewich as well, which was like getting all your favorite breakfast flavors in every bite. Gonna be must stop when I come back.

We had a dozen donuts from here for breakfast yesterday. I called ahead and placed our order. When we arrived around 10 minutes later to pick them, the warm donuts were ready to go. This was our first visit to a Fractured Prune and the donuts were different and delicious. These donuts are much more filling and heavier than typical donuts. None of us could eat more than 2 for breakfast and we are big eaters. We would eat here again.

I'm so glad I randomly stopped in there today! As I ordered they mentioned its their last day! I would've been so sad to have missed out on this! So happy I could experience their donuts! Their funnel cake donut and pumpkin spice donuts were out of this world! See you in the Spring! ????

Out and about in Sea Isle City this morning, picked up some real donuts this morning! As someone who once worked in an independent bakery, as a teenager, I can tell you what is passed off as a doughnut in Dunkin, or the local chain of Duck Donuts is a pre-concocted mix and full of artificial flavors and sweeteners. I don?t eat donuts much, because even real donuts have no nutritional value, but as a child our beach days started before sunrise, and breakfast was donuts on the beach. It?s nostalgic for me

We just came to the Fractured Prune for the first time and have such regret for not coming here sooner!! O my gosh what an amazing experience. Not only were our made to order donuts the best we?ve ever had, the staff was so incredibly friendly!! Wow!! Our dog also enjoyed the pup donut treats! Do not hesitate, stop by the Fractured Prune with the fam. There are a couple outdoor sidewalk spots right in the sun. It?s also worth mentioning the story behind the name is so thoughtful and heart-warming. We will

Delicious and fresh donuts made to order! The service is quick and kind, and the donuts taste amazing. Not the cheapest breakfast, but I love trying new varieties?haven?t tried a bad one yet!

Yum! We ordered online the night before and picked them up early morning shortly after opening. Online ordering was a breeze and pick up couldn?t have been easier! Our donuts were fresh, hot and delicious!

They have many flavors of donuts that you could ever imagine. Every time I come down to Sea Isle I can?t wait to get the dozen donuts. They are something to look forward to every year. Another great item on their menu is the iced coffee. Very refreshing in the early morning hours.

I am a bit confused re the ratings. A cake doughnut with blue food coloring and powdered sugar on top in my estimation is not a blueberry doughnut. No blueberries in sight. Not bad just not anything special. Coffee is ok. Again, nothing special. Over roasted beans. Just giving my honest opinion. Folks were really nice there and clean surroundings. Maybe we just ordered the wrong thing.

July 2021 I tried the Ocean City Sand donut, which is glazed with cinnamon sugar and it was fresh, hot, and delicious. The iced coffee was decent, too. Great, friendly service.

A great place to get a breakfast sandwich. I got the everything bagel with hash browns,egg, sausage and cheese. And you have to get it with Hank's hot sauce for a complete sea isle city experience. The sandwich was huge and delicious! I also got the cookies and cream cold brew. It was decadent! You order your food and then they bring it to your table. The service was excellent! I think they have the best breakfast sandwich in south jersey

I LOVE their donuts! They are honestly out of this world! Sandwiches and drinks were great as well, and the employees were kind and provided good service. Check them out

Recently stayed in Sea Isle and ended up ordering here 4 days in a row! LOVED being able to order ahead for pick up and my order was all ready every time I went. All of the doughnuts were fantastic, the breakfast sandwiches tasty, and loved the combo of the iced coffee flavors.

Extremely friendly staff, helped right away but also did not feel rushed ordering through an unknown menu. The cold brew was fantastic. The Pr egf&chz on a bagel was awesome and hot and the bagel was that perfect boiled bubbly perfection you only get in New York, light and chewy but crisp on the outside. The prune breakfast sandwich is on TWO donuts and it is absolutely huge and also phenomenal. Now the doughnuts. They?re light yet doughy and filling the outside doesn?t get mushy and they are fried hot to o

Pretty good service, order gets fulfilled quick. They also serve breakfast sandwiches. For donuts, you can order a single, half dozen, or dozen. Surprisingly, they look very close to how they look in the photos on the menu, it's amazing. Food tastes great too, you could get breakfast then a few donuts for desert later if you are in the area. The coffee is good too, for a coffee person like me.

We really like this place. The staff was friendly and the donuts are freshly made to order with the topping of your choice. I got the Boston Creme and tiramisu flavored donut. We will be going back next time we are in Sea Isle.

I?ve had YumYum Donuts, Federal Donuts, Voodoo Donuts in Portland, Daily Dozen in Pike Place, and countless others. These are the best donuts I?ve had in my life. The breakfast sandwiches are great too, as were the beverages, and all of the prices are fair. We will be back every day until our vacation ends.

Perfect spot for the morning! Donuts, sandwiches, coffee, they have everything you could want and it?s all great. A fun vibe inside too!

I first tried Fractured Prune Donuts at one of their Ocean City locations several years ago and I have been a huge fan ever since. I'm so glad that I can get the best fresh made donuts right here in Sea Isle!

Best Donuts in the world - the staff are super helpful , friendly and all around creative . I order a half of dozen donuts and when I open the box it look like I just open a box of heaven . Best donuts ever .

Best iced coffee I've had in a long time. The donuts and breakfast sandwitches are amazing and very fresh.

Donuts and coffee were excellent! Staff was super friendly and helpful! Went out of their way to entertain the kids. Great experience

Awesome donuts and a friendly staff. So happy there is a Fractured Prune in Sea Isle now. Looking forward to next years vacation just for the donuts !!

What an amazing staff! Best donuts I?ve ever had! Great coffee as well!

This is what donuts should taste like. Warm, sugary, dense, wonderful. If you are going to eat a donut, eat a real donut.

The best staff ever! They worked fast and very well together! One of the best experiences I?ve had in Sea Isle City!

Fresh, made to order right in front of you unlike most of the imitators that pre-cook the doughnuts then add the toppings when you order.

Was delicious! Ordered online and was ready exactly when it said it would be. Box was nice and warm!

Great donuts, breakfast and coffee. Kind of expensive tho. $30+ for two coffees, half a dozen donuts and a breakfast sandwich.

Amazing donuts that are made right on the spot and given to you they are really amazing!

Delicious, hot, made to order donuts. Perfect start to the day!

Awesome doughnuts ?? ??

We?re in Sea Isle City for two weeks and my 13 year old had an idea to do a donate taste test with our family (including extended family). Yesterday (7/5/25) we picked up 2 cinnamon Sugar and 2 iced donuts with sprinkles from 5 Sea Isle donut shops/bakeries: Shorebreak, Mallons, Maryanne?s, Duck Donuts and Fractured Prune. We decided against adding Acme and Blitz? donuts. Donuts were cut into smaller pieces so up to 12 could participate. My 13-year old I and organized it so we did not count our votes. It w

I've had friends say you have to stop at the Fractured Prune in Sea Isle. It will be a highlight of your vacation. The menu offers a wide variety of options, and everything we tried was delicious. I especially loved the creative twists on classic donuts. The best part is you may make your own delectable donut. Their customer service was outstanding. Since all donuts are made to order customers didn't seem to mind the wait, In fact, customers seem to enjoy the experience. I heard conversations talki

Really disappointed in our experience. Show up at 9:55am and ordered. We were number 45. Patiently waited over 30 minutes for our half dozen order. All while other customer who ordered well after us were being served. After 35 minutes creeped up, we went up and asked for a timeframe. The register woman never apologized when she was shocked to hear we?ve been waiting so long. She did initially say we can have a refund and still have our donuts. A worker who noticeably forgot our order and rushed to get on i
