We heard a new donut place opened in OTR. We arrived pretty early on Sunday and were greeted with a full case of donuts and the sounds of more frying in the back. We got a dozen and all of them are great. I particularly recommend the custard filled and the orange blossom bun.

Accidentally found this spot on a morning walk between Covington and OTR… their orange door and full case of donuts pulled me right in. The women working were warm and friendly, and the donuts were simple in the best way: light and not overly sweet. I grabbed a vanilla, a few glazed, a Bavarian cream, and a half-dozen donut holes… zero regrets. Prices are great for the area, especially being right between Findlay Market and Washington Park. They accept Apple Pay. Taste + affordability is making this my new go-to donut stop in the city. Looking forward to trying their other donuts, like the Orange Blossom.

The donuts were absolutely delicious , the perfect treat for our family’s after-Thanksgiving breakfast. The staff was incredibly sweet and kind, which made the experience even better. We’ll definitely be back!

You have to check out this donut shop in OTR! There are so many options and they are all delicious! They also are very reasonably priced for quick grab and go in the downtown. It’s nice that they are all made fresh (they start baking early in the morning). Highly recommend!

We’ve not had good doughnuts in the downtown area for a few years now. It’s not an everyday thing for me but when you get a craving ya gotta have one and no thanks on driving 30 minutes each way to go get some. Enters OTR doughnuts. Close to Findlay market. Super friendly owners that live upstairs. This is what we want in the area. Owner operators who care about the business and the area. 100% will be coming back. I made the request for an apple fritter. So fingers crossed that it will happen when they’re ready. Had the glazed blueberry cake, sugar twisty, Bavarian cream, and some glazed holes. Everything was perfect.
