We went on a Sunday around 11am and had the place to ourselves. None of the 3 workers greeted us, nor helped us when we explained it was our first visit. We ordered banana cream pie, cherry pie, buzz, death by chocolate, thin mint, and mocha crumb cake. All were made while we watched, but since they were spotted into the glaze directly from the fryer, the majority of the glaze melted into the doughnut. What was left ended up underneath the doughnut cementing it to the box. It gets two stars since the underlying doughnut has great potential - moist and flavorful. I would rather drive a little to get my fresh doughnut from Duck Doughnuts next time.

Great doughnuts. But they need to be a little more cautious about food handling. On my last visit the person working the register was leaning on the inside of my box with her elbows. while writing my order on the inside of the box. When I gother home theres two long brown hairs in my box of doughnuts. Needless to say they went right in the trash, what a waste of twelve dollars. Food handling is very important not everyone can contact the common cold. Please use a different system to identify the doughnuts. Maybe just tape the label to the front edge of the box.

You need these donuts in your life... I dont like cake donuts. Fractured Prune sells exclusively cake donuts. I would injure people to get these donuts if I had to. They are mind blowingly good. They dont make anything until you put your order in. You get to watch them drop the dough in the fryer contraption they have. Loads of toppings, plenty of delicious things to try. I cannot recommend this place enough. I am contributing to the workplace obesity epidemic because of this donut shop.

Service was very good, and those working were friendly. Quick turnaround as you would expect. The donuts are different from Krispy Kreme and Dunkin Donuts as you would expect. My family enjoyed them so we will be back, but not frequently. For a breakfast establishment, I would expect them to be open earlier than 0800 on the weekend. Because they are not, that will limit how frequently we visit.

After I ate these, I read through the Yelp reviews and found a phrase that summarizes my opinion of these doughnuts: "sweet, soggy, and messy". If you prefer light, fluffy, lightly glazed or dusted doughnuts, there are not for you. Theyre more like fried cakes dipped in thick glaze. Maybe some people like that, but its definitely not for me.

We go there quite often. Best donuts weve ever had. They make they hot and fresh for you on the spot with any flavor you can think of. OC Sand is my favorite, while the kids like Strawberry Shortcake and Blueberry Thrill and peppermint patty. Try them all, you cant go wrong, you can even make your own flavors by mixing.

Fractured Prune is a great place yummy doughnuts at a good price. Although on nice days I wish there was a place to sit outside, when I have my dog, its a busy area though. Inside its nice and quite with free WIFI that is a plus! :) They also serve Zi Panini bagels there both nice, happy to have them in Frederick.

There has never been a time where I went to Fractured Prune and didnt love it. They truly have something for everyone, and the donuts are always made fresh when theyre ordered. All the glazes and toppings just make my day. Highly recommend them if youre having a craving for anything sweet.

Donuts were good, not great. Greasy and the glaze is too sweet. The worst is the electrical hazard in the bathroom with exposed wiring. Children or people with mental disabilities could easily get electrocuted. The place is dirty and needs new paint.

I would go here if their hours were actually adequate. Not everyone works day hours. Every Friday I get donuts for the department but end up going to Dunkin Donuts. Its just too bad, I imagine theyd get more business if they had better hours

The donuts are amazing and I would recommend this place to every one. Only problem I have is the hours. You should open at 6 during the week and 7-730 on weekends. Its hard to get donuts for before work when you have to deal with 270 traffic.

Awesome staff! Great donuts! I tried a dozen and ordered very different very random donuts and they were absolutely amazing!! Im not even a fan of donuts but these also being fresh made them that much more enjoyable.

Chris Sibal

Sweet, soggy, messy and flavorless. Also the interior wasnt nice. Not decorated. Not a place I want to sit down and eat something. The nicest part of the store was the bathroom

First customer service suck, the product ( doughnuts) are more like a cake texture the sandy o.c one taste ok. But i got one with orange glaze it made me throw up.
