I had heard these were amazing donuts, but I was never able to make it before they close. I was finally able to get there early a few days ago! It?s a small and colorful shop where I had options to choose from ??. Prices were very reasonable!
I did it! I went during restaurant week when they had a six for ten special and got a box to share with my coworkers. Ask you can see in the pictures, the presentations of the doughnuts is artful and witty. The taste is superb. My coworkers love peanut butter so I got three nutty buddies, and the Oreo one was quite gluttonous of my part. I absolutely loved the cinnamon roll doughnut because the cream cheese was so filling. Also, lemon raspberry was a good, lighter choice. The staff was friendly. I've heard
Delightful little shop, very good doughnuts. Isn't in an area you might stumble upon though. Street parking so bring a friend. Their dozen definitions aren't obvious but they will explain it.
Outstanding service!!! The donuts are absolutely delightful. Definitely top 3 I've ever had. The owner and staff went above and beyond to make our experience great. This is an absolute must try!
Starting in 2021, I started to become somewhat of a regular here. The woman at the counter, Lisa, was such a pleasure to start my morning with. Glazed & Confused was the only coffee (and donuts) shop on my way into work. I started stopping for the coffee and quickly began coming in daily before the commuter rush. It was the best feeling to come in to be greeted by Lisa or the other woman who worked there. I really felt a sense of community and I truly believed in their mission of providing unique tasty trea
Drove all the way from Ithaca to get donuts from this place! They had AMPLE options, freshly made. They had tons of cinnamon based options and other similar donuts. Staff was ultra patient with my indecisiveness, she offers to heat them up since I like warm sweets. The atmosphere was wonderful, lots of warm and friendly decor with photos of some celebrities on the wall. Ample parking on the street. Loved it! Excellent prices, was shocked to pay less than 4 dollars for 2 donuts. That is not a thing in NYC lo
These are the best donuts in the Syracuse area! Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Their maple frosted donut is my favorite, but there are lots of other choices too! This family owned and operated shop is a gem in Central Square!!
Really cute little shop that sells exactly what you?d think - super cute donuts! Variety is always very good. Donuts are SWEET!!! If you like an understated sourdough donut dusted with sugar this is NOT THE PLACE. If you want a mini cake with peanut, frosting and delights come on down. They do have some ?plainer? donuts but they are all very dense and cakey. I?d definitely recommend this place to a friend - more of a ?dessert? donut place. Try the buckeye!
Date of visit: Sat Aug 19 We stopped into Glazed & confused donuts on a road trip that took us through Syracuse. This cute little shop is located in the downtown core and is a very vibrant and fun shop. The d?cor is a retro 50s style with lots of sputnik lamps, and space design. They have a lot of fun and unique flavours. We got cereal, Nutella, and a few other fun flavours. They offer a number hot & cold beverages. The donuts were very tasty and fresh. The servers were very friendly, engaging and patient.
What a great little spot! Our first time here, and we?ll definitely be back. The donuts are delicious, I enjoyed that they weren?t overly sweet and the size is perfect. So happy we were finally able to stop in!
Paul gave all the employees off for Juneteenth , but was happy and friendly the second I walked in the shop today. There was not the smallest inkling of a guy who was bummed out because he was manning the shop alone all day. Super happy face, incredible service, and I'd walk in there to Talk to the guy anytime. If you've tried the donuts, I don't even have to tell you how good they are. You already know!
We absolutely love Paul and the Glazed Crew! They helped cater our dessert table for our wedding in 2018 and did an incredible job; our guests loved the donuts! Their delicious donuts and positive vibes always make our weekends a little brighter. Fill-it-Fridays are fun to look forward to - the cannoli stuffed donut is our absolute favorite. But we love trying all their creations! Glazed is a must-try if you?re near the Syracuse area! And if not, make the trip!
We try to go out this way semi-frequently. We've never had a flavor we didn't like and the base donut is literally mouth-watering by itself. We've managed to go to a couple of fill-it Fridays and the donuts have always been absolutely smashingly good. The kids and my husband and I are huge fans! We devour these donuts with delight every time we get them!
This donut shop has excellent donuts and a very friendly staff working there. We live in Rochester and had to visit a relative in Syracuse at St. Joseph's hospital, we brought them the sweet treats and they loved them. We will go back when we are in the area .
I traveled from Texas just to visit this little donut place. Ohh so fun! Very hard to decide which donuts to try so get a bunch and share. Paul the owner was courteous, genuine and great to visit with. Thank you! Treat yourself and come try these!
This place is awesome! The service was great and the donuts were tasty! The donuts are smaller, which we like, but seemed like the same type of donut with different toppings. The breakfast sandwiches are a great idea! It?s a solid donut shop and we would definitely come back.
Great local donut spot with fun & fancy choices. I personally prefer yeast donuts and most of the ones here are cake. Some special edition ones result in long lines. I would like to see a more streamlined online ordering process. I have to HT for the kid designed business concept, so no lost star for those weaknesses.
Came in today having forgotten my wallet. The gentleman behind the counter was extremely kind and gave me a donut anyways. He completely made my Friday. Thank you!!! And the donut is outstanding (this is the cinnamon bun flavor)
Maybe I should have ordered a hot donut vs. getting the ones that's been sitting in the window. I got the Oreo & fruity pebbles. Being pregnant there's not many options. I wanted to treat myself but wasn't satisfied with the donut texture. Dry an stale. Wouldn't recommend anything sitting in the window. The woman decorating the donuts without proper food safety gloves was off-putting as well. Front counter girl was sweet. Good customer service on her end.
Staff was so friendly and the location is fun on the inside. There was even outdoor seating! There are a few delicious flavors. The donuts are okay but seemed a little soggy or not fresh. Can be difficult to park.
From Montreal city, Quebec, your donuts are amazing!!! Road trip of 210 miles for happiness! Enjoy!
The yeasted donut here was excellent! We loved everything about the snickers flavor. Didn?t love the classic cake donut as much. The shop has a cute vibe and good, fast service!
Absolutely the best doughnut I have eaten in my entire life. The whole place screams of entertainment and delicious baked goods. Excellent Customer engagement and fast service! The music is also on point;) will be a regular for life!!
It was so convinient to order from Grubhub and they delivered it right on time. You may have to order a day ahead because they are usually closed after 1p.m. People have happily waited for hours in the line to get their Donuts. I ordered a dozen of confused donuts. It's superb.
I was in Syracuse for work today and I was told I needed to try this place out. They have a great, fun little shop. The selection was plentiful and the staff was very friendly and helpful. They are a little pricey given the size of the donuts, but they look and taste so delicious. Definitely worth it. Brought home a dozen for the family and they love them. Will be stopping again on my next trip through town.
While on my trip to Syracuse my family found this cool looking doughnut shop the vibe was very funky and fun loved all the decor!! ?? We got 1 of every single donut and they were all delicious, our favorites were The Buckeye, Cereal Killer, and The Elvis such fun flavors that tasted amazing also the price was pretty good $20 for a dozen assorted doughnuts <3 Then we saw the T-shirts and HAD to go back and buy them!!
What a wonderful experience. The shop is handicapped accessible. They have gluten free options and vegan options. Call for the days they are available. The staff is wonderful. This is a must visit. Thank you for bringing such a great donut shop to Syracuse.????. They do close early so make sure you call. They also cater
Served us old bad coffee. No bathroom. No utensils or plates to eat off of. Maybe pick up a donut but dont stop there for a treat. Or skip it and go to cake bar.
I go there frequently! The donuts are delicious! My favorite is donut is "Pardon My French Toast! know the owner Paul Valenti and he is a wonderful and kind person! He goes above and beyond with service! Everyone there is very friendly!
One would think that these fancy donuts would be faddish, but the toppings and flavors are enhanced by what was probably the best donut cake I've ever tasted. Absolutely the best. Can't wait to go back!
Best donuts in Central New York! The donut creativity is always moving and inspiring. Note: some donuts are better warm than cold.
Great classic donuts, and a cool range of unique flavor combinations. The atmosphere is friendly and high-energy, even early in the morning, it might be something to do with all the sugar! We picked up a Confused Dozen, to celebrate Groundhog Day, I would recommend it anyday.
Amazingly fresh wonderful gourmet donuts! Worth the travel and price. We got the specialty Valentine's "box of love" themed donuts. Great way to start V-day. Everyone loved them. Thanks!
Stop Now! Go to this donut shop. First off their shop is small but easily accessible if you get there early. Their selection was top notch as they had gourmet donuts for everyone?s taste. Along with the regulars they had a special of the day that was to die for. The cereal killer was a top favorite of our groups! Take the time and stop by
Loved all of the options. Donuts were soft and fresh. I wish donuts were healthy because if they were, I would be here everyday. The maple bacon was my favorite. Nutella follows close behind!
Best Donuts in Town! Great gift to bring to client meetings and family events.
Gluten-free doughnuts made fresh every Wednesday and Saturday can be dressed up into virtually any of the flavors on the menu. If you're visiting on an off day and really want GF donuts, be sure to call ahead. The Dizzy Pig is especially good.
Their donuts are always fresh and so tasty!! The strawberry shortcake one is my favorite! We recently did a large, special order for school staff as a welcome back to school treat. G&C was so easy to work with and individually packaged each donut for us! The staff loved it!! Thank you so much ??
Good donuts, but all seem based on the same "fried cake" donut. The donut itself seemed identical to the ones you've seen come off the typical automated machine that drops the batter in the oil, auto flips them half way down, then ejects them into cinnamon or sugar. They do excel at using a lot of creativity for their toppings. PB&J, Canoli, frutti pebbles, etc. The New Year's Champaign donut was very tasty. $2 to $3 per donut is a little to much for these.
I came across Glazed after following a bunch of local Syracuse small business on Instagram, and Glazed seemed to be one of the beloved small businesses around town. A friend got my housemates one of the variety boxes, and we were able to cut each of the donuts into quarters and do kind of a donut-flight situation! It was really fun and I loved trying out all the fun flavors. My favorites were the Dizzy Pig, Buck Eye, and Pardon My French Toast. I've started to crave Glazed Donuts, and another friend gifted
Incredible tunes, donuts and staff. Everything is right in this pastry paradise. Sarah is so accommodating and sooner off there creations are perfect for this snowy city. I highly recommend this little gem to anyone.
You haven?t experienced donuts until you?ve visited Glazed & Confused. Sure, local bakeries make donuts. ::YAWN:: Donuts from G&C aren?t merely a snack or a boring old breakfast staple. They are an EXPERIENCE!
We came in from out of town and stopped by after ice skating in Clinton Square. The doughnuts were amazing and my favorite one was the Oreo with cream filling in the middle of the doughnut. My family and I bought a box of of all different doughnuts and sampled each one. I highly recommend coming by here and trying a doughnut or two.
Love their donuts! I had the cereal killer donut and it was delicious! We came 15 mins before closing and it was our first time so we didn?t expect much. But they still had many options and the donuts were served warm! 5/5 would recommend
I don't think I've ever eaten anything better in my entire life. I love these donuts. I am also so thankful that I do not live closer otherwise I would weigh a lot more. Staff were super pleasant too! 10 out of 10, will definitely eat again.
Cake donuts aren't my favorite ????? but they were smaller and not dry at all! Toppings were tasty! Especially the Cinnamon Roll and French Toast!
I wish we lived closer - their donuts were AWESOME! They offer some creative toppings not common for NY. Expect to park a block or more away and a line when you get there if it?s a weekend morning but the staff moves people through the line quickly. Our favorites are the Milk & Cookies (like an Oreo) and Get Shorty (like a strawberry shortcake). Trust me you won?t be disappointed!
Cute donut shop in Syracuse, New York. Interesting flavors, coffee and other beverages, and outdoor seating is available. They even have treats for your four-legged friends! Cool music is playing in the shop and staff was very friendly. They close at 2 pn so be sure to get there early!
The doughnuts are incredibly delicious, they are always fresh and still warm when you get them, the flavors and combinations they have come up with are out of this world good. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking to enjoy a delicious treat.
The donuts are AMAZING. They were all so unique looking that I spent a good two minutes in analysis paralysis trying to decide which one to start with. (I started with a Dizzy Pig). Salty, sweet goodness. 10/10 for Glazed & Confused.
Cute little shop. I love how they have fresh donuts waiting to put in your box instead of taking them from the showcase. They have certain flavors to choose from, which are all delicious. I got a variety and loved every donut I ate. The cost is between 20-25 dollars for an assorted dozen. Worth every penny. A must try shop!
The place is small and cramped reminding me of those unique off beat places which in this case just happens to be downtown syracise. The premium donuts are not cheap but not ridiculously expensive either. 20 for a dozen at most 8 premium is worth the price as they are unique and tasty. The base donut fresh is one of the best I've tasted, and they do come fresh. The add ons are interesting but rich, I think these would be best if you had people to share with as it takes time to eat them all but the fresh
Chloe was polite and courteous, she does her job well. Paul is focused and on point with delivery. I hope to bump into the kids one day, what an amazing product!
The donuts here are excellent! There is a wide variety between their classics and their more gourmet specialty donuts. This time I just stick with the classics. They are very dense, which makes them more filling than a regular donut. The only problem is, they are a little pricey, but they are worth it.
Incredible little donut shop that sells delicious varieties of fresh donuts at a quick pace. Definitely worth stopping at.
The best selection of premium donuts. One for any taste. The dizzy pig might be their most famous, but for connoisseurs you can't go wrong. The seasonal themed donuts are so creative and fun, such as Halloween, Easter, and Mother's Day.
The doughnuts were out of this world! They offered some very unique flavors and all tasted excellent. The doughnuts were clearly fresh made and the staff were all very kind and helpful. I highly recommend trying this place out if you are in the area!
These donuts are amazing!! Must stop. Coffee was so-so (luke warm, wish I had time to drive back). Sorry, one donut escaped from photo.
Great donuts! Best I have had in Syracuse. However, they also have some of the best customer service in town hands down.
They have the best donuts i?ve ever had and the greatest customer service. I drove from oswego to come here and it was worth every minute! I?m telling all my friends about it.
Possibly the best cake donuts in CNY! However the presentation and taste of the product has gone down a bit in the past 3 or so months, with frostings becoming more of a glaze, and donuts taste a bit more oily than before... e.g., see photo of expected product vs actual.
I can't say they were bad donuts by any means. The flavor was good, they were just a lot more dense than most donuts I've had. They were also much smaller than most donuts. If it weren't for the toppings, they would be a 3 bite donut...
Words cannot describe the sugar-induced bliss these donuts can give you. The Snickers donut will put you into a delicious, diabetic coma and the Dizzy Pig is bacony goodness atop a baked treat. The Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go sandwich is ridiculously filling and was perfect. 10/10, will gladly become diabetic by eating too many of these donuts.
The guy behind the counter was incredibly patient, helpful, and friendly. They had vegan donuts (only on Wednesdays and Saturdays), which was a pleasant surprise, and they were absolutely delicious. The carnival donut frosting tasted like Dunkaroos, if anyone remembers those. And the selection as a whole was really awesome.
Of course this was a hit at my wedding! Who doesn?t love Glazed & Confused? My guests were having donuts before dinner was even served and everyone was so excited. Emailing was a little tricky, but talking to someone in person or simply calling the shop made the process of booking easier. The price was great for the amount we got. I even had them delivered and set up for a small fee. If you?re looking for donuts for an event, Glazed is the place to get them!
Store was cute and really quick service. But really disappointing in the donut itself. The donut I got was super hard and crunchy when I bit into it; to the point where it almost felt stale? Not cakey like any of the reviews have pointed out. My friend got a donut too and hers was really soft and did taste fresh so did I happen to get an an unfortunate old donut that got left behind somehow from the previous day? Who knows. It felt like such a let down after seeing all the great reviews and to me, this bu
Donuts are so delicious! Staff was so nice and informative! Variety and creativity is on point!
The donuts are delicious but the service is horrendous. Don?t expect to get what you see in the display. I paid $14 for 6 donuts. When I opened the box, it was a hot mess. The donuts I got looked NOTHING like the donuts I ordered. They were delicious but I would NEVER serve them to guests. They were sloppy and ugly. I was really disappointed and will not go back.
Absolutely amazing donuts. Even better people. Everyone is so friendly and appreciative of their customers. Definitely worth the 2 hr drive. I'll be adding them to the list of must haves when coming to Syracuse, along with Pastabilities!!
It is a small building, but that doesn't matter at all. They had 12 different types of fresh doughnuts to order. And are completely ready for you to order one of each... they even have plastic knives ready... so you can cut and share. The doughnuts are so light and fluffy; and pack a powerful flavor. The two girls working the counter were very friendly, helpful, and fun. Would highly recommend.
Great service and amazing doughnuts. Very fast we were in and out in no time. The basic doughnuts were pretty reasonably priced. The fancy gourmet ones were a little more but worth every penny. Great cake doughnuts give it a try
Glazed and confused is always delicious and festive! They make sure to have releases for holidays & sporting events (go bills!) and they have $3 gluten free/vegan on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
Great donuts and atmosphere
The strawberry French toast and up all night were so good! The atmosphere is amazing and the people were so nice. Will be back again!
These donuts are delicious! The ingredients are fresh and the recipes and names are creative!
Great people. Fantastic donuts! Sit, take a moment, and try the French toast donut.
They?re okay???????. Looks better than they taste to me but the base donut itself is good.
Amazing service with delicious donuts. Not only are they beautiful art, it taste just as well! Will return soon!
Great first time experience! If you like a variety of speciality donuts, this is the place to go with very reasonable prices!
Solid donuts! Good variety of flavors and not too sweet.
We stopped by this donut shop today. Their variety of donuts is mouthwatering and so beautifully & deliciously decorated. I personally like the ''basic'' donuts, so I ordered a Sour Cream donut. It was delicious, extra fresh, extra moist (like a pound cake), and it was a huge donut! Please do yourself a favour and try this donut shop!!!!!!
This is what we saved from our most delicious donut run ever! Get there! We had a Carnival, with sprinkles, a maple, a Bullseye OMG??, a caramel apple and a Dizzy Pig- DIVINE!!! Happily carb overloaded, going to take a nap, and go back for a few more heavenly bites??
The employees are so nice, the donuts are THE BEST. Cinnamon roll is my favorite
We ordered delivery through door dash. Their service is quick. The donuts are fresh even better than Dunkin? Donuts. There was a great variety of donuts. The Oreo and cerial killer donuts are a highlight for this place. I?d recommend stopping here if you want a unique experience enjoying donuts as opposed to mundane Dunkin? Donuts while in Syracuse.
Super friendly. Small shop but lots of delicious and attractive varieties. Creative topping combinations. Maybe one or two dedicated parking spots on the street.
I have wanted to stop here forever. Their presentation and marketing get 5 stars, everything was amazing from the look of the donuts to the storefront to the food truck, everything matched and meshed together we'll. Good music, good coffee. For the price of the donuts, they were small, and I did not find them to be extraordinary. They were good donuts, but for the price and the size I expected to be wowed. I would definitely choose them over Dunkin or gas stations any day!
I like how fun the atmosphere here is and the high level of creativity that goes into all the different varieties of donuts. But the toppings are very sweet and can be overwhelming to eat a whole donut. Wish they had a bit more sugary sweet to fried dough balance. I recommend if you buy a box cutting the donuts in pieces and letting everyone sample the different ones for a more enjoyable experience. I did feel a bit rushed in-between donut selection by the counter girl, it felt like I was expected to know e
