Customer Reviews

Brought the kids for Good Friday for the first time. Shop is very cute and the menu has a wide variety. Everything we ordered was delicious and quite decadent. However, the service was extremely poor. We ordered 5 smash donuts, and 2 milkshakes with donuts plus bottled waters. The first smash donut out was incorrect. The young girl making it looked at me like I had no idea what I was talking about when I told her it wasn?t what we ordered. She didn?t begin to remake it until the girl who took our order conf

If I could give half stars, I would; but I?ll round up to four. Good portions and pricing, nothing overly gimmicky or complicated. Husband and myself ordered the Simply Smashed donuts 2/$10. I got coffee ice cream, he got cookies and cream. Both tasted yummy. Ordering was easy, received our food quickly. The color/temperature changing spoons were a nice touch. Would definitely return, just wish they had one closer to us in Southern Indiana.

Yummy!! I know folks are talking about the smash donuts, but hey just the donuts alone are amazing!! I ran in to grab a snack for myself and decided to add a dozen of the mini?s for $12.95. The donuts, ALL OF THEM, are crazy good! My service was on point and the establishment is super clean!

Came in for the LTO Easter donuts and was blown away at the selection of variety available. The donuts were so cute and delicious featuring vanilla dipped, strawberry dipped and chocolate dipped. Was a perfect Easter gift for my family 10/10 recommend this company for holiday orders, custom order or catering!

My husband and I get in the mood for donuts at odd times. Them being open late is perfect. They greeted us when we walked in, the atmosphere is fun and the most important part is the donuts are delicious. The Owner, Ben, was also there greeting people and the service was great. We got a s?mores to share and minis to take home for the family. The donuts aren?t greasy, the donut itself is soft, has the perfect texture and they taste amazing. We will be back to try the stuffed donut!

I saw this place on Instagram and we decided to try it for our anniversary. It?s fun and different. Not a ton of parking, but at a time that wasn?t busy, it was fine. The three smashed donuts we got were fun, Biscoff was probably the best. Would try here again if we were in the area.

Donuts were good, not my first choice for donuts because I love the local shops such as hi5, Plehns, and Nords. Atmosphere was very welcoming but the milkshake wasn?t aesthetically pleasing per the picture and the excess dripping on the outside of the cup wasn?t wiped off when left on the counter for pickup. The smashed donut was ok.

The donuts are great and very unique compared to other shops in the city. Service staff was great and explained to me the menu, was only able to get a picture of one donut because they were gone so quick??. Will definitely go again!!!

I?m really picky with donuts, but can say these are the best I?ve ever had. Are they excessive? Of course, that?s the point, lol. However, even going with their more ?traditional? options will leave you satisfied. The smashed donuts are to die for!

It was okay. Decent ice cream and donut. Just not sure I?d go back. The 2 for $10 is a good deal. Definitely worth trying.

The doughnuts are so soft and delicious. They taste amazing and are super fresh. The environment is super fun and energetic. Definitely a great dessert spot! Their smashed doughnuts are super good too! Highly recommend!!

This place is amazing. I brought my out of town guests to try it out. The ice cream and donuts were amazing!

I got a smashed donut, then minis to go -all delicious! Great atmosphere, and I was impressed with the variety of menu items. Will definitely go back!

When we (my 8 year old & I) first walked in immediately we received weird stares & I made it all the way to the counter without a greeting. As this was my first time here I found it extremely odd but I mustered up a ?hi!? anyway. While speaking with the cashier we continued to receive weird stares from another employee in the background. I mentioned ?icing? inside of the donuts as it had been a while since I heard about the place & honestly couldn?t remember what they consisted of & I just received a dry ?

Their breakfast sandwiches and donuts are excellent, and the staff provides friendly and efficient service. I plan to return to try their donut ice cream.

Just a fun little shop. Staff was pleasant and good tempered. Bantered with me, which is never necessary but always appreciated. Got the Reese?s peanut butter milkshake and loved it. Definitely will be back.

This new dessert shop just opened in Middletown. Cool new place. just tried one of their smashed donuts. I thought it would be way too much so I split it with my daughter. Unfortunately, my daughter has a peanut allergy so we got the biscotti which I like anyway. I could?ve definitely eaten the whole thing. It was amazing!

Ordered a Oreo shake, it came with a donut on top with coconut flakes. I?m allergic to coconut, asked to change for something different and was told I couldn?t bc they were closed @ 9:59. Was willing to pay the charge if it was a difference and they said we couldn?t. Really highly disappointed that I couldn?t change it.

Oh man. This is going to be my new favorite spot. Their milk shakes are unbelievably delicious. And the donuts were like no other. The customer service was great too!!!!!!!!

Was very excited to check this place out, and it was decent but a little pricey. Saw a post about smash donuts being $5 each but apparently not all smash donuts are the same because our family did a takeout of 4 and after my tip, the total for $46! We all liked all the donuts and actually only ate half because of how filling & sweet they were. We threw the leftovers in the freezer and had them later in the week and they were still yummy, so $9ish isnt too crazy, its just that it was double what we expected

I went in today since they had just opened. And I would like to say that the donuts are absolutely amazing. They're so fresh and they're so fluffy and soft. I would definitely recommend they are. A little bit expensive, but I find that it is worth it.

Group of 10 of us, all brothers and sisters and spouses, and our fifties and sixties, showed up as a part of a donut Quest we were having on a Sunday morning. Who had the best donuts in Louisville so we hit five different donut shops not your typical Dunkin' donut Fair the donut shops that were local or that you can't find in every other town. We tried 12 different Donuts and all but one we're great but we won't tell you the one because really it's a matter of taste. We just all agreed it tasted off. The Hi

Strawberry shortcake and the Cinnamon Toast Crunch one were amazing flavors are so good. Love this place definitely a great dessert place

Pretty good place... had the biscoff smashed ice-cream donut very good although it needs actual cookie butter for a more prominent flavor

Highly recommend. Great selection of specialty donuts. Plenty of tables to dine in. Or it?s quick for takeout.

The food was yummy but I think I would have liked the smashed donut better if it was warm. I got the Nutella Crunch, which was good, and my son got the cookies and cream, which was ok. My other son got the regular cookies and cream donut, which was just alright. Friendly service and quick service. I feel like the smashed donuts are a bit over priced. Worth going and trying it once but I won't go out of my way to go here again.

Great food, amazing atmosphere. Love the doughnuts and refreshers!

We had a great time! Everyone was very welcoming and the smashed donut was delicious!!

Had the strawberry shortcake smashed donut!! Was amazing! Shakes look crazy too!

My kids (and myself ??) really enjoyed our visit. The Oreo smash donut and it was a huge hit!

Stopped in with my family ordered $70 of items you have a staff member that is a young lady looked to be Asian with dark hair working today at this location 04/18/25. @3:30 pm that is just rude as can be . So one of the items ordered was the Nutella crunch smash donut. Was to have a butter crunch topping but this lady stated after we received the order that we do not have that topping . I do not even know why it is on the menu. Very unprofessional very rude and that was the end of it. Maybe it would be nic

Yo, Yo!!! We have been waiting for this store to open and the experience has not disappointed. Weve love everything we tried and will be heading back often!

The people there are very nice and helpful but the donuts themselves are really really dry. The strawberry milkshake is amazing! I?ll be back for the milkshake but not the donuts. Highly overpriced for design but yet no quality sadly.

Good atmosphere, good service. Yummy donuts ??. The shake I ordered was tasteful. The strawberry ?? mango ?? lemonade had a amazing flavor and will definitely come back and get this again.

Very overpriced. $24 for FOUR average size average tasting donuts and a drink. Not to mention the first donut I tried was only partially filled. I was very disappointed. Apparently there are several different prices for donuts, but it's not really clear when you're ordering how much each one cost until it's rang up. Regardless, it's just too expensive for donuts

The banana pudding milkshake taste just like banana pudding with little vanilla wafers in it. Definitely recommend

Nice workers, and atmosphere. The banana cream donut was terrible. It had pudding inside, I didn?t realize the donuts were in a non refrigerated case. When my sister bit into the donut and began to chew she gagged so hard she threw up. There was room temperature pudding that tasted as if it went bad. I wanted to get a refund but don?t live close. I was really disappointed with the entire experience

The place is nice. The staff is friendly. Do not be deceived over the gluten free donuts. They come out of a Katz box, even though the website acts like they are made at their factory and shipped to them.

Great specialty donuts and drink options and not to expensive. The only complaint was how the manager was speaking to one of his employees. He was talking to him like a child and you could tell it was bothering him. Very unprofessional!

Neat place, but menu options and pricing are not very clear and the donuts are a bit overpriced. $8+ for a signature smashed donut or $5 for a donut with ice cream in it. I wish it was more affordable but I enjoyed it.

Such a cute donut shop! Such nice employees and the owner spent time talking with me. Had their Cookies and Cream Smashed donut, it was sooooooo good! A must try!

i love this place! the donuts are so yummy and it is such a unique concept :) the service is super quick and the employees are very nice. the atmosphere is amazing and so fun!!

shakes was good, donuts was soft but all flavors tasted the same. The cashier was very friendly but the manager (the guy in the orange) was condescending to us and his employee. Very rude.

A great new place to have a fun dessert!! They also have breakfast sandwiches all day. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Our kids loved it! Will definitely return!

Amazing customer service!! And what a cool idea? ICECREAM STUFFED DONUTS? Omg sooo recommend.

The SMASHED doughnuts are so good, 100% recommend. The employees are super friendly and the space is super cute. If you are looking for a delicious doughnut, dessert, refresher, or breakfast sandwich, I would come here! Will be coming back again :)

So delicious! We got the brownie donut, Nutella smash donut, and Bueno smash donut. They were all amazing. We can't wait to go back!!

If you like donuts and milkshakes, you got to get the birthday cake milkshake!

Delicious food ?? the smashed doughnuts are so good I really love them it took a bit of time to get the food because of all the people hut weather than that it was so nice to get their doughnuts ??

Albeit a bit messy, the smashed donuts are great and it?s good for the price

super cool and fun flavors of donuts!! absolutely delicious! the employees were also super nice and helpful :)

Donuts are good but overpriced. Staff was friendly and the place was really nice but the cost per donut will keep me from coming back.

So yummy! The whole family loved the treats. Reasonable prices too for what it is.

The service and food were great! I'm really not a donut person but I will definitely be back for more from Yonutz! So many options to choose from and everything we had was 10/10!

My first time here and I loved it.

The staff was amazing and the donuts were very fresh and tasted wonderful!! Can?t wait to try their breakfast options.

Super yummy and fresh!!!! Everyone was very friendly and welcoming?? Definitely will be back for more!! Suggest getting the Signature Smashed Donuts!!!!!

Really good donuts and ice cream but poor customer service my first time trying this place and the lady that was on the register was completely rude she over charged me then when I corrected her about it she looked at me all silly and I did not appreciate that at all with being a first time customer

This place is AMAZING! The portions are huge, we could of split a smashed donut between 2 of us. Perfect date night!

This place is a vibe. The workers here are so nice and energetic!

The banana pudding donut just may have changed the wiring in my brain. It was the best thing I've ever had. I shall return!!

Very friendly atmosphere and the donuts were delicious. Will be going back to get another here soon.

I had 6 girls they loved the donuts, but would not drink the milk shakes. They said they were awful.

We all loved it. The donuts, ice cream, and refreshers are all fantastic! We will be back to try more!

Awesome concept. Friendly staff. Great fresh doughnuts. Love the mini doughnuts.

Great ice cream/donut sandwich, and nice guy behind the counter! Look forward to going again!

Very fun little shop to stop and eat at. A little pricey but worth it for sure! Stop here if you get the chance and want to try something a little different!

If you really want to hear someone in their 20's yell, "Yo, welcome to Yonutz!", this is the perfect place for you. Overpriced and feels like it should be a stand in a mall.

Just driving by and saw this new place. Service was great and it was really really good. Definitely worth going. And we will be back!

Amazing service, even better donuts 10/10 would recommend

I was the best donut place ever because they have drinks with donuts on top

The food was really good, but after we ate, our stomachs started feeling funky, and then we our stomachs were hurting so much we were about to puke??

Is it a little over priced for a donut and a scoop of ice cream, sure but it is a fun take on a dessert

Awesome place wonderful donuts wonderful people would definitely come back again

My family saw many photos of yonutz online so we went and it did not disappoint!

I love that this place is near me because their creations are VERY good. I would come here every week!

Smashed donuts were fire and can?t wait to try the milkshake!!! ??????

The milk shakes are soooo good and I love how nice the employees are

Best donut to ever hit my tastebuds!!! Highly recommended!!!

Extremely delicious and quick, awesome selection of deserts. 10000%

Wonderful customer service!! Wonderful sweet treats! The kids LOVED!!

My breakfast croissant had a cold egg in the middle.

The best Donuts Ever!! Obsessed ??

Everything was so delicious that we ordered!

3.95 for a donut, no way won'tbe back!!!
