STILL The Best Donut shop in Cincinnati. The hours are pretty wonky as I am a avid customer here... >:) Randomly closed on days. There isn't a structure for their times that they are "open" Honestly wouldn't pull up any time before 6AM as they are usually not open at the 5AM time listed. Cincinnati Doughnuts as of 2025: Best to Worst Starlight Donuts (For the bourgeois. Not the average consumer**) Silverton Donuts Golden Hands Blossim Haven Cafe (Eclectic but not normal ingredients*) Wyoming Pastry Shop
Best Glazed Donuts! Melt in your mouth. Light and fluffy. Delicious. Also - Great coffee. Loved the Highlander Grog. Coffee roasted locally and delicious. Owner and Baker Ron was very nice. Stayed open as I rushed there today to grab some yummy donuts. How have I missed this place all these years!?! Will return! And it's Kocher!
The service is wonderful. The gentleman who served us, seemed to love what he does. The donuts are fresh and delicious! Coffee is so good; beans brewed just right. I was there later in the day, got full service and a good selection of donuts. Loved the glazed cherry donuts. They are out of this world. Plenty of parking and not much of a wait.
Really nice owner and tasty donuts and a great price!
Simply amazing donuts, very easy to get in and out.
AMAZING! The glazed cake donuts are incredible but I have yet to try anything that wasn?t great!
So sad that I got up early on a Saturday morning to surprise the family with donuts to only be disappointed that again this shop was closed. I?ve been there many times within the month and the shop has been closed during their posted hours. Someone needs to make up their mind if they want to be in business or not because my money is just as good spent somewhere else. This was even worse because this place is not close to me, but I will say that their donuts are quite amazing.
Stopped by at 9 am this morning and the place was already closed even though their hours are listed as 5 am to noon. Why post specific hours if you're only open until you sell out? Came to inquire about getting donuts for our office and you were already closed at 9 am. Tried calling to pre-order for next week and the phone just rang and rang.
Donuts are great and I would much rather support a small local business than a place like dunkin, but it's impossible to catch them open. Closed on Mondays. Never been there early enough to catch them open on Tuesday. Updated Feb 23 - they're finally consistently open, but you better have half an hour to spare.
A hidden gem, this little donut shop has some of the best in the city. Their donuts are fresh, with a nice, crisp outside and a soft, fluffy inside - topped with all the favorites. Their hours are a bit unpredictable (when they sell out, they close), so its best to try to get there early. Everything is very reasonably priced, and the owner is delightful.
I heard a lot of amazing chatter about the Silverton Donut Shop, and after having lived in the area for a year I decided I'd finally make a trip over there. Let me tell you, it was well worth it. Best yeast donut I've ever had. Fluffy with a great yeast flavor and a subtle crunch on the outside that leaves you wanting nothing more than another bite. Really friendly service and a good selection for 10am from a small bakery. I would give it more than five stars if I could!
Update: Stopped by again after a year has passed. Still amazing! OMG! So buttery and flaky! The yeast based donuts are amazing! My best friend told me about this place and I finally stopped one morning for my babies. I see all the complaints but I was also forewarned that you HAVE to go early, as these "goodnesses" sell out FAST. I got there at 7am. Stop complaining and go early. Not too many amazing "mom and pop" gems left in Cincinnati.
The owner is really nice. And listens to you.
Very good donuts. Good prices and amazing staff. If you?re going on a weekend try and go early otherwise you may have trouble getting what you want
Silverton Donut has the best donuts around. They are everything a fresh donut should be. They are made fresh and delicious and with a smile. No off the wall flavors just your old fashioned cake and yeast donuts made with great ingredients and love. Stop in and try them. But go early because they only make so many and when they are gone she closes.
What's going on with your hours lately? I've come by there twice to find you closed when you're typically open? I love the Donuts and prefer to bring them in to work for everyone....It has been a hassle coming out of my way to find you closed when you're suppose to be open. Frankly, it is disappointing. Please get back to the consistent hours you once had because you are currently losing customers, advertisement and money due to these sporadic hours. Outside of this problem: your donuts are great and your
They made an oopsie one evening, but it was the ?whoops we made too many donuts? kind of oopsie so they gave me a ton of donuts to keep them from going to waste. Even though they didn?t have that amazing glazed iced blueberry donut i liked the last time i visited, i?m still in their debt for the free donuts.
This donut shop is pretty basic on the ambiance, but the donuts cannot be beat! They are vegetarian and kosher, too. The hours are a bit irregular. In addition to being closed on Mondays, there are days when they sell out very early in the day, or just don't open with only a sign on the door. Their facebook page and website are not updated with closings either.
Seriously the best donuts and their apple fritter is fantastic! Just the right amount of apple and crispy sides with a soft middle. We love their bowties and clunkers as well. You have to arrive early for the best selection. No frills and their sole focus is on the donut.
This place is a prime example of "don't judge a book by the cover". These are some of the most unique and delicious donuts I've had in my 38 years. I'm sad I got there around 930 today bc the choices were limited. I got 2 fruit filled, 5 glazed and 5 chocolate dipped. Everyone at work loved them! We will be back for sure and next time get their earlier to get to try some of their other donuts.
I can?t say enough wonderful things about this place. I have been a customer for years. This week I called to ordered donuts and Maggie told me they where not making apple fritters every day which are my family?s favorite. When I picked my order up she let me know they had made apple fritters !! I love this place and they have the best donuts in town !! This is why you support local businesses !!
This is the place to stop for really good donuts and coffee. The prices are great, they are made fresh every morning and they have a great attitude and pride themselves in their work (It clearly shows.) If you choose to go here, definitely get the Tiger Tails and the "Create A Dozen" :)
I decided to drive a little extra distance for good donuts for National Donut day. I had heard good things about Silverton Donut Shop, so I decided to try them out. Open 5 to "sold out", I rolled in about 8:30. The shop is non descript, featuring a simple sign. I drove past and doubled back. I eagerly entered the donut shop to find loyal customers in a line waiting their turn. The shop may literally fit the description of hole in the wall. The menu board is so old that all prices have fallen off - or
Silverton Donut shop is an awesome experience with the freshest donuts, great coffee and manager Maggie is best. I bring my girls every Saturday and we sit at the counter to began our morning ritual. I am thankful there are still a few family friendly coffee shops that know your name when you enter like extended family.
I stop in this shop whenever I can. The donuts are magic. A wonderful crispness on the outside and tender soft and light on the inside. This is how a donut should be. The lady who makes them and serves them to you is very nice as well.
Delicious classic donuts. The cake donuts are nice and moist with a slight crumble, while the yeast filled are airy with a crisp crust. If you?re lucky enough to get your hands on a cinnamon roll, it?s the best!
Delicious donuts. Good variety. Well priced too. No complaints:-)
Donuts were fresh and crispy! Best donuts I?ve had in awhile! I just wish they made more to meet the demand of the customers, they sell out very early in the day and are always closed by noon.
My favorite place in Cincinnati to get donuts. Great selection, reasonable prices, wonderful donuts. Nice people too. They do occasionally close on random days, so maybe call ahead to make sure they're open.
Roller Coaster adventurers from out of town and looking for the best donuts in Cincinnati. The donuts were excellent and the ladies who helped us were great. We came in later in the morning, but donuts were still fresh and hit the spot. Thanks!!!
This place used to be awesome. Great prices, great product. Now I'm lucky to see them open at least 3 days out of the week... Went in the other morning when I was amazed to see the lights on. Prices went up higher than Buskins and donuts have gotten smaller. I'm sure they are doing this to compensate for the days they are not opening. Sad to give this kind of review, but it's all true.
Best donuts ever, freshly baked every day. Only bad thing is that they are not open all day, once the donuts they are sold out, they close shop. If you want to try it be there as early as possible!
Now i'm not a big breakfasty person, but this place is top notch. They have great prices, and the drinks to go along with the doughnuts. The best part? If you stop in late at night on your way home, you can get the leftovers 3 for $1 and eat them then, or they're still good in the morning!! Great hidden gem
Call ahead before you go to make sure they?re actually open. We?ve tried to get donuts over a half dozen times from our neighborhood donut shop and only actually gotten them once. So just don?t waste your time driving all the way there to see a paper sign on the door.
Some of the best donuts I've ever had. We will definitely be returning, they have many wonderful flavors and options.
Amazing donuts! Personal favorite - the klunker. Good prices too. $9 for a dozen. Only complaint is that sometimes they aren't open during their normal operating hours.
They sell out insanely quick so make sure you get there early, and I talking if you get there between 10 and 11 they will be out of only have a few left. The donuts are REALLY good though
I love this little local spot. These are donuts like they are supposed to be. Fresh, delicious, and tasty. I could eat these everyday ?? .... The ladies are so nice and helpful too.
Great selection of VERY DELICIOUS doughnuts. I?ll definitely be back! (Minus a star because between the woman who helped me and the barren look of the store it seemed a bit uninviting.)
Formerly the Ridge Doughnut Shop that used to be in the UDF Plaza at the corner of Ridge an Montgomery Road. Always go for the klunkers! Doughnuts are made fresh daily, excellent quality. Plenty of beverage choices including milk, juice, freshly brewed coffee, and even buttermilk! Always smiling and cheerful service. Plenty of parking available especially on the side of the building. The location is easy to find on Montgomery Road in Silverton.
The facility is dirty, the donuts were too crispy, almost like they sat in grease while cooling. I ordered a Bavarian cream and it made it through half the donut before I found cream.
Excellent donuts -- and the best donut holes anywhere! It's best to show up early, though; they are often sold out by late morning.
Love this place when I can buy something, lol?? . My family will fight over their donuts.
Amazing, fresh doughnuts. Always a stop when I have a hankering on a day off. Keep in mind, the selection dwindles the later it gets, so go as early as you can
Favorite donuts around right now, and their glazed are... I'm gonna say it... better than Holtman's right now. I stand by it
One of my favorite donut places just timing be off some days but overall i would recommend this place to everyone. Just get there early befor they all gone!!!
Hands down best donuts we?ve ever had?.on the rare occasions when we catch them open for business. Why you never opened?
9 in the morning and they are sold out?! Edit: to be fair they're closed on Mondays BUT this hours of operation aren't on their door so shame on me for expecting donuts at 9 AM on a Monday.
The lady who helped us was very warm, welcoming, and helped explain their best selling flavors. Would definitely go back next time we're in Cinci!!!
Donuts taste like they sit in oil and too crispy ??
Amazing! Call the day before or show up early in the morning if you want to get some before they run out! Their donut holes are gold standard and addicting
Their donuts are absolutely amazing!! Literally the best I've ever had!
Great donuts, wish they had fritters. Got there this morning around six, hoping for some.
Service is always friendly and absolutely love the cinnamon twists and apple filled donuts
Some of the best doughnuts in town, bar none! A small family owned shop where the staff is friendly and welcoming and the sweet treats are top notch
Good donuts and friendly faces. Just know that they're only open until they sell out of donuts that day, so get there early!
I love their donuts but they are a hit or miss depending on how they feel to open. My assumption.
Best donuts I've had in Ohio and certainly outs the rest of Cinci to shame. Very friendly staff and amazing prices. Treasure this place.
Doughnuts were good old fashioned doughnuts. I really enjoyed the cream filled. The cream was not very sweet which helped balance the doughnut.
Great place just moved in area, came about 9am on Sunday and was out of everything but doughnut holes( which what wanted) best I?ve ever had! Go early or be slim pickins
I walked in there today and the lady who is working behind the counter was very rude. The donuts weren't even that great. I'd rather take my business elsewhere.
Favorite donuts of all time!! These folks know how to make awesome donuts!! Gotta arrive early for their buttermilk donuts!! ??
Hours listed online are so wrong. 4 of the 5 times I?ve come here, the place is closed. Tried again today (Sunday morning) and is sign in window saying closed until Tuesday. So random - prob not trying again.
Great donuts best place to sit and talk with your coffee.
Get here early. I won't say what mybfavirmy thing is here because you gotta be early to get them before they are gone. You're paying for pure doughnut goodness, not for ambiance.
Great service each and every time I go in, Best donuts and coffee every.
Best donuts in the area. Get there early on Sunday before they are gone!!
These donuts are sooo good. The apple fritters are the bomb. A nice walk for some donuts once a week.
We are lucky to have this business in our neighborhood, amazing donuts at a great price.
Classic donut taste! Can't believe it took me this long to try it. Loved every donut we got.
Best donuts in Cincinnati. Get there early though as they sell out quick!
Fantastic donuts and coffee. I love this place!
Always a good deal. Selection is standard but much better quality than anywhere else in town.
Delicious handmade donuts yeast and cake options. Come early, sell out quickly!
Best doughnuts in the Cincinnati area. ?SOLD OUT? sign posted at 10:11 am on a Saturday.
Best donuts in town. Sells out fast so get there early.
This place has the best donuts EVER!! Their cake donuts are dangerously good, and the prices are fantastic!
Some of the best donut holes ever, super friendly staff, and fair prices.
Never open. They need to update their online information. So it's either incorrect or they are really late.
I have tried alot of donuts, however, these donuts are really well made.
Silverton Donut shop is the best, and Maggie makes my experience so enjoyable. I Love this place!!!
The people that work in here are amazing. They are very bubbly and very smart, they also are friendly and they give you a great start in the morning.
Legit local donuts not the franchise crummy approximation.
An icon in the Pleasant Ridge/Silverton area. Great donuts, service, and community!
Bring these donuts to work several times a month. Love this place
A hidden gem! Freshest,tastiest donuts I've ever had.
Amazing donuts, especially like the chocolate covered Bavarian creme.
There is a reason this place hasn?t had a less-than-five-star review in the last year. Do yourself a favor and check this place out. Get there early before they?re gone!
