Yummy doughnuts with creative flavors and friendly staff, but a little pricey.
(4)Sandra H.
Omg these donuts are amazing. My sil got them one time and I decided to take my son today he loves this place. Favorite donut place
(5)Steve F.
As already said not a fan of caked donuts but these were amazing. Ordered strawberry shortcake and cookies n cream, custom-maple glaze with bacon and chocolate glaze with mini chocolate chips and oreo crumbs. Fave was the maple bacon. If short on time strongly recommended calling in the order or online.

While the $2.00 doughnut price is steep, this place will become my "once in a while" guilty food snack place. I tried the "Bacon Bomb" doughnut...SHOCK AND AWE OF PURE YUM!!!

They are cake doughnuts, so keep that in mind. They are really good though. We went in on a Thursday night 10 minutes before closing and a movie had just gotten out. There was a girl on the staff that was really annoyed that we were there and wasn't trying to hide her annoyance at all. She wouldn't let it go and kept rolling her eyes. Made me feel bad for being there.

After walking past the "Coming Soon" sign for a few months I was excited to see that they were finally open. Sadly, the anticipation did not live up to the reality. We ordered three donuts: salted caramel, maple glaze with bacon, and chocolate glaze with chocolate chips. The chocolate glaze was so thin that had it not been for the chocolate chips I wouldn't have known there was any chocolate on the donut. The other two were greasy (I know they are fried but grease was the main flavor.) As for the customer service it was as bad if not worse. We waited 15 to 20 minutes for 3 donuts. Two other orders were served between the time we ordered and received our donuts. They were both two donuts each so they were not busy. One worker wandered around the store, in front and behind the counter, with what looked like an iced coffee clutched in one hand. Another, looked as though he were having trouble reading and called out "Sam" before the coffee-clutcher told him the name was "Scott". the other two workers were by the dough machine. I'm not sure if there was a problem with the machine or if they were making a fresh batch of dough. As a reminder, you never get a second chance to make a first impression. I won't be going back.

Different, fun, and yummy! Definitely not your average donut shoppe. Its nice that you can pick one of many popular flavors or create your own. We tried about 5 flavors and would get about 4 of those again next time. The only thing that would make it better to me is combining this method with a krispy kreme donut which is sweeter and more dense than the Fractured Prune donuts which are more fluffy and cake-like.
(4)Jeannette M.
I was excited to walk in to this place. The cake was delicious and the toppings were just enough to not make it too sweet. I'll go again to create my own.
(4)Jean L.
As a former Marylander familiar with the original Fractured Prune oceanside location, I was soooo excited to see them come to Arizona. The Westgate store is perfection. An efficient, well staffed operation. And then there's those hot out-of-the-fryer doughnuts! I was in doughnut heaven. As many reviewers commented, you custom order your doughnut from a wide variety of glazes and topings, or choose one of their specialty creations. I ordered one to eat there (with their amazing coffee), and a half-dozen to take home. A few seconds in the microwave brings them back to their original hot out of the fryer deliciousness. Thank you, Fracture Prune, for coming to the West Valley!!!
(5)Reese E.
I can't say I was impressed by the doughnuts. Friends of ours said it was great so we tried it. We bought a dozen and couldn't taste the flavor of the donuts. The only one we really could taste was the death by chocolate. The apple pie smelled like apple pie, but certainly didn't taste like one. The salted caramel was ok, but the salt lingered after you eat the donut. Disappointed, but we tried it.
(1)Samantha T.
Cool concept but all the donuts taste the same. We got Carnival, French Toast, Marshmallow, S'more, and Oreo. Too heavy for me and pricey for a donut. Probably wouldn't try again. Coffee is good.
(2)C L.
$2 a doughnut like place, made to order anything you can imagine. I enjoyed a plain with cherry frost and chocolate chips.
(3)Natasha A.
I bought the carnival (honey glaze and rainbow sprinkles), coffee cake, and blackberry cobbler doughnuts and they were all good. My favorite was the carnival. The service was even better than the doughnuts. All smiles and very helpful. :) They have a large selection you can choose from, and you can even create your own doughnut by picking any glaze with any two toppings. For example, vanilla glaze with mini M&M's and rainbow sprinkles. I'll call it the "state fair." :P
(4)Jen A.
The customer service was great but the doughnuts are horrible! Gross, small, nasty oil taste with flavor on top to cover up a Cminus doughnut. Then served too hot that it took me 5 minutes before I could eat it. If you are going to be in the doughnut business, at least be good at the old fashioned. I'll stick with Northern Perks and Welcome doughnuts.
(3)Luciana L.
The donuts were deeee-lish!! it's a wee-bit on the small end but it is quite the delectable treat so you don't want to indulge too much! I don't know if it's worth the $2+ per donut but they were quite good. The staff was nice and the coffee was strong. Definitely worth stopping by. It took them a while to get our order so I don't know if it's worth coming when they are super-busy. Just a heads up!
(4)Janet N.
I'm a raised donut kind of gal, so giving Fractured Prune a try you can say there was a bit of a hesitation. However, with the rave reviews and smells of deep fried goodness wafting through the air, it was hard not to be drawn in especially with the idea of DIY donuts? How can you resist? Even with a donut bias. I decided to go with two self made donuts and one from the menu: 1) Peach Glaze & Graham Crackers 2) Maple Glaze & Bacon 3) Caramel Glaze & Sea Salt The cake donuts themselves are so airy, moist and warm. They had a slight crisp exterior and soft contrasting interior, it was superb! Kind of similar to funnel cake! The Peach Glaze and Graham Crackers left a lot to be desired, not much peach flavor or that great cinnamon flavor found in Graham Crackers. The Maple Glaze was good, though the Bacon was a bit soggy and soft. The Caramel Glaze was subtle in Caramel flavor and was salty, nothing too complex here. Big fan of the choice of creating my own donut, the freshness of donuts here and the great texture of their cake donuts. The glazes aren't great and toppings weren't bold in flavor by any means, but I believe with Fractured Prune ... less is more, stick to a classic glaze and enjoy. Would definitely come back, but probably with a maple or chocolate glaze only.
(3)Marie B.
Good not great, I think I need to try it again with different toppings. I do NOT recommend the bacon, cold and fatty on a warm doughnut was just not appetizing. Both my kids said they liked other doughnut places better and for almost $2 a pop not really worth it.
(3)Jacob E. G.
This place just opened up and I had a sweet tooth. I stopped on by and there was a short line but it took awhile to get the doughnuts which is expected considering they make them as you order. I like how they have a large variety for you to choose from. The doughnut I got was pretty good.
(4)Kurdy S.
"Fractured Prune?" What does that even mean? It sure got my attention. I actually first heard of it through word of mouth, so I had to see what its all about. In a nutshell, its the Chipotle of Doughtnuts. Sort of. You won't see a glass counter full of pre-made doughnuts, your order is made freshly in front of you. As you go through the line and try to figure what you want, you are just overwhelmed with choices. There's a slew of different doughnut creations you can have them make OR just invent a custom one to your tasting. I guess that's the beauty and uniqueness they bring.' The one thing I can judge at this point is the base doughnut which is what every guest starts out with before deciding on what concoction of toppings you end up with. To simply put it, its very "cake-y." You get to see the entire process, literally made in front of you, from the raw doughnut ring dropping into the frying all the way to it rolling off the fryer. As a huge doughnut fan, its a fun experience to see. As far as toppings are concerned, it truly is an abundance of choices. Jokingly, I'm no good when it comes to choices, I take too long to decide. I go with my guts and what my taste buds are typically drawn too is how I end up deciding. Anyways, if doughnuts if your thing and you love choices, you will love it.
(4)Kaily N.
I was skeptical.... Fractured Prune?? But I needed a coffee fix and there isn't much around for that so I decided to check this place out. Usually doughnut/donut places have coffee! (Right?! ) Located at the Westgate shops, not at the Outlet mall but the one closest to the hockey stadium. I walk in.... Smells delicious!! Right off the bat, it smells amazing and I was welcomed by a very cheerful girl behind the bar. She asked if I've ever been there before and come out from behind the counter to help me! I decided I no longer just wanted a coffee.... They have so many delicious choices and you can even make your own! Once you choose, you write the quantity of each doughnut you want on a piece of paper they supply and you pay. After you pay, they make the doughnuts right then and there, and since it wasn't crowded, my order came out super fast! They were so warm and moist. I had the Blueberry, Carnival, Coffee Cake, and Dulce de Leche and they were all amazing. They also offer hot or iced coffee and you can pour your own creamer, they offer flavors... And you put your own sugar, etc in it. This place is a definite must try and I will definitely be back!
(5)Anne C.
Cool concept!! Freshly made classic donuts. You choose the glaze. You choose the toppings. The world is your oyster! Lol. Lots of options for both glaze and toppings to choose from... Customize, or choose from their selected combinations. The donut itself has a great taste. Rich flavor, not too sweet. Dense, yet soft. Went there on a busy weeknight, but service is friendly and fast pace.
(4)Jen T.
We were so hungry after watching a movie at AMC. Fractured Prune was just right around the corner. They have such an interesting name. As a first-timer, everything was self-explanatory. There was a little order sheet that I could select from their menu or create my own. We ordered the dulce de leche & salted caramel; and created our own with maple glaze and double bacon. They have a donut fryer with a conveyor belt. The donut was super fresh. It was warm when I took my first bite. I would definitely return to create more donuts of my own!
(3)Deni G.
Not Just Your Average Doughnut As you enter the store you grab a order sheet, and begin the selection process. You can select from one of Fractured Prune Doughnuts most popular flavor combos, like OC Sand, Green with Envy, Death by Chocolate, Carnival, or Apple Pie, or you can pile-on whatever flavours and toppings you are craving. As you make your way to the counter you can see piles of hot, freshly made doughnuts, awaiting your requests for how they should be glazed and decorated. The doughnut artist drops dough into hot grease and fries your cake donuts up fresh and crispy. The piping-hot donuts are then liberally dipped into your topping choices as you watch and then the doughnuts are delivered to you piping hot and fresh. Our favorites were the Smores, Apple Pie, and Salted Carmel. But honestly, there probably isn't a doughnut we didn't like. The staff is friendly and helpful. The store is immaculate. Stop by you won't be disappointed .
(4)Kathy C.
Best donuts ever!!!! It's literally a create your own donut factory. so many toppings to choose from and they make the donuts while you watch! It's fun and fresh and so YUMMY!!! We came back the next day but they were closed. Wish they had this in LA!!!! You have to try these donuts!
(5)Sierra W.
I will always love KRISPY KREME more than any donut. But this place comes to second best. Seriously so yummy. They come out at the perfect temperature and so fresh. My first time I got the s'mores donut and the cookies and creme. Both are very very good. I was very satisfied. I will try two more the next time I go. If it was closer and donuts weren't so fattening I would have gone another time. I keep dreaming about a warm donut haha. But I recommend this place if you don't have a Krispy Kreme near you and if this is a decent distance. :)
(5)Sylvia G.
I like this place a lot! Always clean and fast. There are tons of options to choose from and your doughnut(s) are always fresh! My personal favs are the maple French toast and the apple pie! Sooooo delicious! They are a bit pricier but totally worth it! Unless you eat there too often then that's a different story :p
(5)Rob L.
Wow Bypassing the disconcerting name that makes me think of fiber-induced regularity, this place is A-MAY-ZING. Be warned that the long list of options makes for a lot of combinations. So, come ready to spend a few minutes putting your tastes to doughnuts the first time. The location is trendy and vibrant. The store is bright with pleasant staff. And the flavors make one salivate. FP's menu is split into specialty doughnuts and build-your-own. For the former, we ordered Blueberry Hill, Carmel Bliss, Chocolate Cherry, Dulce De Leche, Sand, French Toast, and a few others. On the custom list, you pick from a total of around 30 glazes and toppings. As they list, "There's no wrong way to make a doughnut." The doughnut bread is of the heavier, cake-type bread. One could stand for a meal if you want. Key word being "if". :o) Prices aren't bad, so you can go crazy. I ordered twice as many as I intended to, just because of all the flavors and the cost.
(5)Kevin O.
Having walked by a few times before and after Arizona Coyotes, this place caught my interest. On a recent Friday morning, I decided to treat my mom on her birthday to one of these delicious rings of goodness. We got three donuts to split (S'More, OC, and French Toast). As you can see first hand walking into the establishment, they are fresh, hot, and made to order. The original pastries were as amazing as they sounded! Overall, the staff was friendly, helpful, and fast. The place was clean too, but for as new as it is, you have to expect that. My brain is telling me we just can't go back, but my stomach is saying, we gotta try the_____. At a cost of $1.89 per donut, they are on the pricey side, but so worth it. Do yourself a favor, and cave in to your gut! May I suggest everything on the menu!
(4)Carizza R.
Fractured Prune makes their doughnuts to order, which is something that I can't commend them enough for. The other half of the FP experience is what makes or breaks each piece, as guests are left to select their own glaze and topping. From there, it's really a matter of what you're going to do with this responsibility that's been given to you. Are you going to leave it at it's most pure form and accentuate it with just a hint of your favorite glaze? Or will you walk out with an overgrown candy bar on top of a slightly fried piece of dough? FP lets you pick!
(4)Lita A.
I was a bit skeptical at the site of the plain donuts. They looked like cake donuts and I figured they'd be too hard. I'm happy to say, I was mistaken. I ordered the bacon donut, and my hubby ordered the French toast. These two were similar in their glaze, but mine had bacon sprinkled in the center. The outside of the donut was the perfect amount of crispness and the density of the donut was spot on. The inside was warm and I was able to savor each bite. I am a fan of Krispy Creme donuts but the way they melt in my mouth, always leaves me wanting another one (or two). This is not the case with Fractured Prune donuts. I could have had another but I felt satisfied with one. I look forward to trying more of their creations!
(4)Mei W.
So yes, the donuts are $2 a piece, and the donut itself isn't that big, BUT you get to choose a glaze and two toppings on a fresh, hot donut! Mmmm so good and so fresh. You can choose from one of their favorites, or make your own. I got the honey glaze with coconut and sea salt. Sweet with a hint of saltiness, yum! The guy that helped us, maybe the manager, was so very nice. He welcomed us and thanked us for giving them a try, explained how to order donuts, and was genuine the whole time! By the way, to order, you fill out this paper with the kinds of donuts you want, and then you bring it up to the register. I like it this way, so people that don't know what they want don't hold up the line... Anyways, the donut was very good, and one was enough for me. I wouldn't come here to buy a dozen of these for breakfast, but I would definitely come here as a dessert place for after dinner, movies, or hanging with some friends.
(5)Jade W.
My boyfriend and I finally decided to try this place after going in two different times just to look. All the different flavor combinations kinda freak me out a little bit since I tend to stick with glazed or chocolate frosted donuts. We decided to try the O.C. Sand (honey glaze + cinnamon sugar) and Cookies & Cream (vanilla glaze + cookie crumbs). I liked the sheets of paper that you make your selections on (like Which Wich, where we had eaten earlier). Got to watch our donuts being made. I thought the pools of glaze that they plop the donuts into looked strange and also noticed the toppings get cross-contaminated from the different glazes. Hmm... interesting. When I tried the donuts, I was pleasantly surprised! They were still warm and had a nice texture. For some reason I thought the donuts were going to be cold and dense. Definitely happy with our selections. I guess I'll have to come back and try some other flavors.
(4)Sierra P.
Holy shit. These are the best donuts I've ever had. They are made fresh the minute you order them so the donuts were nice and warm by the time I got them home. The glazes are perfect. Not too sweet to where it overpowers the donuts and not too think to where you can't taste it. I got a dozen for 17.63. I think it said single donuts are about 1.80. I wish this wasn't so close to me... This could be dangerous.
(5)Melissa Y.
I really like the concept, and wanted to love it. There is a great selection of glazes and toppings ... unfortunately the donut itself is not for me. Instead of the typical soft and airy donut, it's dense and cake-like, similar to what you can buy prepackaged in the supermarket snack section. I just don't like this type or flavor of donut, so that sort of ruins the overall experience for me.
(3)Skip S.
I really love this custom donut shop. They not only have a number of different toppings, but you can customize your own. They are fresh as well. They are made to order somewhat like a Subway sandwich shop. You can see them create your donut. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The shop is very clean as well. I will be returning and also tell my friends about it as well!
(5)Jayne G.
Donuts are ok. I think it's too sweet for my taste. Or maybe because the one that made my donut put too much vanilla glaze. I saw how her face changed that she made it wrong but whatever. It's just nice to see how they make their donuts and that the donuts are fresh.
(3)Eddie C.
Was feeling like something sweet so decided to try this place out. It definitely has an odd name but a pretty cool concept. It's like a Subway but instead of sandwiches you create your own donuts. They have a wide variety of choices. I realized all the donuts are the same plain donuts just with different glazes and toppings. The donuts are freshly made so they are nice and hot which makes them taste better. Only negative is the price as each donut is about $2. You can save money by getting a dozen but that'll also set you back about $16. I can also see how you might be there a while waiting for your donuts to be made if store is busy. We waited about 7 minutes for 7 donuts and there was only one other person there when we ordered. Would probably come again if I'm back in the area to try some other flavors.
(4)Cody M.
This is a fun and fantastic doughnut place! They have a very unique and creative way of doing business and bring you a fresh out of the fryer goodness. You start by picking out what you want on a sheet. They have several suggest kinds of doughnuts to choose from and even give you the option of creating your own master piece. You then walk up and pay for what you want which is all reasonably priced. Then you get to watch your doughnut being made in the fryer in front of you as is put it, flipped, and taken out. You watch as the glaze and toppings are put on then they are handed to you nice and hot! They taste exceptionally well with the key being lots of good ingredients and it fresh out of the fryer! You can sit inside or out to enjoy your food and of course there's a to go option for those on the run. All in all I was very impressed with this place and will be returning very soon!
(5)Lauren U.
I have been super excited to go to this place. So I just moved back home from being gone for about 5+ years. I walked in to (granted I walked in 5minutes before close) but every guest should get the same great customer experience no matter what time it was. There were two gentlemen working, and immediately put on a face once me and my friends walked in. (YOUR OPEN TILL 10, so serve me until 10) . We were looking at the menu, and one of the gentlemen was in the dining room cleaning and immediately shouted (We are closed, Lock the doors). Talk about a rude experience, thank you for taking my excitement and throwing it out the door. Guess I'll be going to a different location.
(1)Karina H.
These doughnuts will leave you thinking about them for days! My sister bought a couple for my husband and I and brought them over to our place. I am not a huge fan of doughnuts, so I was ready to place the small box on the counter for my husband to eat later, but when I grabbed the box I could feel that the doughnuts inside were still warm. I don't know about you, but when it comes to sweets, if they are still warm...ah, heaven. I immediately opened the box and saw that glaze was nice and melting, so were the chocolate chips my sister had picked for my doughnut. We hadn't eaten dinner yet, so I decided I would wild in a very controlled way and only take one bite. HA! Joke was on me! I couldn't stop eating it. The doughnuts were the perfect consistency. They were slightly crunchy on the outside and soft and cakey on the inside. So good. Nothing like what feels like stale puffs of air from Krispy Kreme. I can't say much about their customer service because I haven't been in the shop. Try them. You will not regret it.
(4)Gregory R.
Favorite donut shop! If in the area this is a must stop. The donuts are cooked fresh to order.
(5)Stacy Z.
Donuts, toppings (bacon!), icing, and a great price. This is, as you probably have already realized, a doughnut shop where you choose an icing and a topping for your plain doughnut. Yes, the doughnuts are admittedly not huge, but I think for $1.89 apiece it was a fair serving. The ordering process is easy and you either customize a doughnut or choose one of their designs. I went with mocha icing and bacon and M&M's for the topping. Admittedly, the m&m's might have been a bit over the top, but it was tasty. I think if the doughnut had been any larger it would have been too much. It is nice to see some interesting places coming to Westgate after all of the chain mediocrity that is already there.
(4)Ty A.
My girls loved this place! They loved it so much I had to take them back the following weekend with their friends.
(4)Bobby H.
Get 'em - and eat 'em - while they're hot! Something for everyone, that's for sure! Love the concept but even with the very clever ordering process (you see photos while waiting in line and use sushi-like ordering sheets once you've decided; good luck with that!), I can imagine it takes quite a long time to get your order if there's more than a few people in line. FYI-it took 10-15 minutes to get ours and there was only one family in front of us... But that Bacon Bomb doughnut was pretty darn good. So if you've got the time and you've earned a little treat, do give it a try!
(4)Lacandice P.
the doughnuts are the best I ever taste. my son got to watch what he ordered be made right in front of him how cool.
(5)Nikki E.
I'm trying really hard to lose weight and places like this just aren't helping what so ever. SO and I went in to try it out after his co worker told him about it. Interesting place with a lot of good recipes, the create your own option is awesome as well. I picked a few flavors to try and I have never ever had a better donut. This place is great. Having first thought it was a senior dating service, I am so glad I was wrong.
(5)Richard R.
A fresh, hot doughnut straight out of the fryer which could potentially be made any way I want it. This should be a dream come true. But there are too many flaws to the concept, that just makes Fractured Prune feel like nothing more than an overpriced snack. 1. $1.80 for a standard size doughnut. That's a pretty hefty price tag. 2. There's only one actual doughnut type. You can cover it with any glaze you want to add flavor. But all of the doughnuts are the same plain cake doughnut. There isn't even an option for a chocolate doughnut. Seems like a missed opportunity for extra flavors. 3. Most of the toppings are same items you can find at any self-serve frozen yogurt shop. It kind of makes me wish I were saving myself the fat and calories and eating at one of those places. 4. If you eat it right away you will (a) burn the hell out of your mouth [yes, it's that fresh which should be a good thing] and (b) will only taste the oil. Seems kind of silly that I need to wait for doughnut to cool down before I can taste it. 5. Potentially long wait. The first time I tried a doughnut here there was a sizable line to order, which also turned into a quite a wait for a doughnut. Not exactly the type of snack I have much patience to wait for. 6. A really stupid name. I know there's some crazy story behind it about the original location's landlady, but I still feel like an idiot saying I bought a doughnut from the Fractured Prune. But having said all that; The Fractured Prune is still a lot better than most of the standard doughnut chains. So if you don't have the time to go out of the way to a small shop, you're much better off picking up doughnuts from here.
(3)Daisy M.
Omgosh!!! It's like heaven in your mouth. Made fresh in front of your eyes. Dulce de leche is delicious. French toast is a must. Blueberry too sweet
(5)Lisa S.
Delicious with so many different selections to choose from to make your own doughnut. They also offer military discount.
(5)Christina M.
I had heard ravings about this place so we checked it out. Very interesting as they make your donuts to order. I think that the donuts are quite good, although a bit expensive per the size of the donut. I would like for them to try real fruit glazes rather than the artificial glazes that you see.
(4)Brad W.
At 2 bucks per small donut, these things better be decent. The taste all depends on what you like, so this review and any review of these types of donuts are very subjective. All the donuts are the same, so if you like the donuts (which I did) then you won't have a bad experience unless you screw up your toppings. I had something with chocolate, so with the hot donut, those chips melt fast and all over your face, but it was still good. Too many choices too list, but if they can knock down the prices to a buck or so a donut, it would make better sense. It is still just a donut and instead of them making it in the back, they make it in front of you, so why the huge price increase? The novelty will wear off, but still it is a good place for a novelty visit if you are craving a new age donut.
(4)Katherine B.
We went in one evening after reading about what was new at Westgate. This was exciting since it's a new concept. We weren't greeted upon arrival. There was a group ahead of us that seemed unhappy and there were a few behind us as well. After ordering and literally watching the staff do nothing except look at each other until one of them started making dough--literally 12 mins after we ordered, the first group came up and seemed to have a confrontation with the manager. There were no experienced adults on staff so the young man who seemed to be in charge was very defensive. Finally after 20 mins we got 4 doughnuts that were subpar. Won't be returning.
(1)Ray T.
While it is a neat concept there are more cons then pro's. Cons: $16 for a dozen doughnuts? Long walk from the parking lot to the shop Cake doughnuts Westgate is not convenient at all Not the best doughnut I've had Long wait to actually get the doughnuts after ordering Had to hang out in the stinky greasy smelling place for the long wait Pro: Novelty
(2)Vernon W.
I hate writing this review because I've eaten there in the past and it was very good. I went in this morning, June 5th and there were 4 employees working; a cashier, a cook, and 2 people making donuts, or maybe I should say 1 1/2 person making donuts as 1 was working very hard, the other would make a couple, then clean for 10 minutes, then make a couple more. I ordered my usual 2 donuts thinking I'd get them in 5 - 10 minutes as usual. 20 minutes later, still no donuts and same employee suppossed to be making donuts, just standing around like she was lost. 1 other lady was waiting next to me. I asked her how long she had been waiting and she said 25 minutes for 2 donuts as well. Finally, I asked the person standing around why she wasn't helping make the donuts. The cashier at that time, jumped into action and started making donuts as well. They cleared the back orders after that in just a couple minutes. Why weren't they all working to start with? Why did it take a customer to ask about their procedures for them to get everything made? Not sure, but know I won't be going back for a while until they get things straightened out.
(2)Dee C.
The yummy bread is oh so amazing! The banana bread was my favorite! Wow! Great location and clean. We will definitely be back for another round!
(4)Debbie T.
A-MA-ZING!!! If you've never had a light and airy doughnut, that's fresh and hot, with the toppings all gooey and drippy, then you haven't experienced pure bliss. They have their specialty doughnuts, but you can also customize to your liking. We've tried both, and they've all been deliciously decadent. For a special treat...give it a go...you'll be glad you did.
(5)Kimberly T.
This place is genius!!! Doughnuts any way you want!! These were delicious, but not good the next day! Do not buy extra thinking you will eat them for breakfast. Also the wait is worth it, but it does take a while to have it your way :) We will be back for sure!

The donuts were good. I had two. The Black Forest and Smores. The donut was lighter than I thought it would be being a cake donut which was good. The donuts were also fresh. I have nothing bad to say about the donuts themselves or the service. They are overpriced though as the donuts are only about Entemenns size and two donuts cost over 4.00! The price is the only thing bringing down the score.

Aside from the cashier having to ring up every doughnut individually, I thought this place was awesome. Their bacon bomb was simply amazing! A must try if you're visiting the west gate area.
(4)Matthew S.
Best single donut ive ever had. Not sure if its because it was fresh just cooked or they all taste awesome. We got caramel glazed and the toppings were Oreo Cookies and sea salt. It had this amazing crunch. Soft and warm inside and then crunchy savory flavor on top. only had one but will definitely be back. This was my first timeat Fractured Prune. PS - the name after some woman nothing to do with doughnuts. It was bothering me the whole afternoon until i found out why the name. :-)

We were in West Gate distract this evening and the kids came across this place... Lots of favors and toppings to pick from it took us awhile I loved the sea salt and bacon! Very clean ... Friendly staff... Fast service for the large amount of people there this evening.... We will return again soon
(5)Terry M.
Very cute concept but poorly executed. From what I can see there are 4 employees and only one making the donuts. Needless to say having to wait 10 minutes for a pricy donut not so great. They are set up to have two donut stations but working only on one. This is a first and last visit for us
(1)Christine D.
The salted caramel is heaven in your mouth. Extremely helpful employees with simple ordering system. Bonus.. You can make your own doughnut! Reasonably priced in swanky Westgate!
(4)Eric F.
The donuts taste delicious! Great variety and made fresh as you order. A very moist warm cake style donut. Here is the challenge. There is no leadership in this place. The owner is absent there is no vision. The employees are simply there to fill orders and collect a paycheck. An employee, in between preparing donuts, took out a towel and wiped down the counter top with her gloves on, she the. Processed to handle the donuts with the same gloves. No employees corrected her and she proceeded to touch everyone's donuts with dirty gloves. The boxes are placed on top of the donut toppings while they fill them with donuts. The place does not look clean and there is clearly a lack of motivation or inspiration for these employees. Cmon leadership, where are you?

The husband and I have major sweet tooths, so we decided to give this place a try. It's great. The selection and combination are pretty vast. A must if you like donuts. We will definitely be back.
(5)Galina P.
I heard from lots of people that this is a very nice place with tasty donuts. I m not impressed. The idea is nice have a donut ur way with lots of toppings and combinations, but the donuts itself is not even close to be good one . The oil they were cooked in was almost black ( I didn't know when it was changed last time) compered to donuts from bobbyq it is nothing. Won't go again . And not going to recommend.
(1)Summer M.
This place is great! Girls night out with movie, then went here after for the first time. They have a huge selection, seriously, they have every flavor imaginable. They make them right in front of you when you order them. It was fun to watch them. The prices were a little more than Dunkin' Donuts, but the quality is so much better. Love this place.
(5)Mya T.
I am pretty much a girl version of Homer Simpson. Needless to say, I was THRILLED to see a new donut shop so close to home and they did not disappoint! You walk in and are immediately engulfed in the smell of sweet, fried, deliciousness. Similar to Which Wich, you fill out an order form and are given the option of some of their pre-made flavor combos or customizing your own. The donuts are fairly priced and all of the employees were very sweet and helpful. The donuts are given to you piping hot with the toppings melting together perfectly. Also, I love that this place is named after a badass woman! I will definitely be back.
(5)Tim M.
Went in this past weekend, not knowing what it was but being drawn in by the menu. The idea is pretty cool, you can order some unique donuts or even build your own with various glazes and toppings but in the end, it was just a so-so cake donut that was pretty spendy. I would say you should check it out just because they're pretty unique and it's pretty great ordering a donut covered in bacon.
(3)Michelle S.
I'm not usually a fan of cake doughnuts, but thought I'd give this place a try. I'm glad I did, but I wasn't blown away. There's a simple ordering process, the donuts are made fresh and to order, and you're in and out pretty quickly considering what's going on with the doughnuts. I ordered a Strawberry Princess (don't judge me!) thinking it would be extremely sweet. My husband made his own with maple glaze and bacon. We left with still hot donuts in a box and headed home. We have now sampled these doughnuts, and while it's not at all what I expected, it's not terrible. My Princess didn't taste like anything but the cake itself. No strawberry flavoring to be found. The maple glaze is flavorless as well, according to my husband. If the glazes were a bit stronger/more potent I would be back here weekly. The doughnuts themselves are really good, but not enough to draw me back time and again. It's a great concept and an awesome location, but not my favorite dessert option in the vicinity.
(4)RockAFire S.
Any donut flavor you can imagine. Very modern concept. They only offer cake donuts, not raised. They are fried fresh as you order. Very fun to visit, price keeps them from getting 5 stars. (16.00/dozen)
(4)Johnny H.
Don't let the hype draw you in, fancy toppings does not make this a good donut , it's sub par overall. Cake doughnut tasted like the fry oil was old and the toppings are not of much quality. I LOVE doughnuts ... Repeat ,LOVE them! By far the best ones in Az either come from Rainbow my personal favorite , Bosa a close second and Lamars a great runner up . A plain French curler at any of these places is leaps and bounds better than the fancy Fractured Prune treat .
(2)Kallie A.
My husband and I had a date night at Westgate. We have seem this place on twitter so we thought we would try it. It was really busy so I could see it was very popular. We wrote on the paper what we wanted. We took it up to the cashier and we watched how they made the donuts. It was really neat watching them cook and watching them decorated with all the toppings. We got a salted Carmel, 2 mocha, cookie and cream, and a Smore's. The donuts were delicious. It is alil spendy so we won't be going all the time but we would definitely go again.
(5)Amanda M.
My boyfriend and I found out that this was a doughnut place after walking around WestGate. We were excited for a different doughnut place besides Dunkin or QT. We were hardly impressed. They fry the dough too fast. The outside has a weird texture and the inside wasn't cooked the full way through. We could barely taste the flavor of the glazes. We love the idea of it, but they need to slow down and actually DUNK the donuts in the glaze. They get 3 stars because it has potential to grow. We will probably go to the waffle place across the way before we go back here.
(3)Ron G.
This place is a 5+ the concept is different and very unique. If someone says they have bad or stale donuts hen they are smoking something. If you want a donut with a twist then this is the place to go!!
(5)Iam_ W.
Great and creative way to get donuts. Fast service，you can order what ever glazed and toppings that you like! Bacon topping? You got it. You should try. Hot and fresh donut made to order.
(4)Lauren M.
If I could give a half rating I would-2.5 stars. This place was just alright. Definitely cool concept but the doughnuts itself are fried way too long and aren't the same consistency as most shops. Took the 30 minute drive and wasn't impressed. I'll stick to Bosa and save my mileage
(2)Hue H.
I give this place a thumbs up! I'm so impress with how soft the donut is and how it just melts in your mouth. You can experience the donuts being freshly made right in front of you. Although its a cake donut, I'm surprise on how well the dough is and how spot on it was fried. So soft and yummy! The toppings we're not so overpowering, it is well balanced and beautifully made. I took my 9 yr old son, and he loves it as much as i did. Krispy Kremes, you have competition! I will be coming back for more
(5)Sarah F.
This is like the Coldstone Creamery for donuts. They have a bunch of different toppings (mini marshmallows, chocolate chips, nuts, dried fruit, Oreos etc) and a bunch of different glazes ( banana, cherry, marsh employ). They make the donuts in front of you from the batter to the fryer to the toppings. The donut is more of a sweet bread flavor then a traditional donut. They also have breakfast sandwiches which is eggs, cheese and meat with a donut as the bread. It's a little on the pricey side for donuts and they are on the smaller side but it's a fun experience. And I love the name! I probably won't be back as the waffle place across the way looks way better.
(3)Tabitha A.
These doughnuts are the best , I could eat one everyday !!! Every time I'm in Glendale we stop and get doughnuts I want to try them all . So far the ones I have tried are delicious . If you haven't had one you need to !!!!
(5)Lacandice P.
the doughnuts are the best I ever taste. my son got to watch what he ordered be made right in front of him how cool.
(5)Nikki E.
I'm trying really hard to lose weight and places like this just aren't helping what so ever. SO and I went in to try it out after his co worker told him about it. Interesting place with a lot of good recipes, the create your own option is awesome as well. I picked a few flavors to try and I have never ever had a better donut. This place is great. Having first thought it was a senior dating service, I am so glad I was wrong.
(5)Vernon W.
I hate writing this review because I've eaten there in the past and it was very good. I went in this morning, June 5th and there were 4 employees working; a cashier, a cook, and 2 people making donuts, or maybe I should say 1 1/2 person making donuts as 1 was working very hard, the other would make a couple, then clean for 10 minutes, then make a couple more. I ordered my usual 2 donuts thinking I'd get them in 5 - 10 minutes as usual. 20 minutes later, still no donuts and same employee suppossed to be making donuts, just standing around like she was lost. 1 other lady was waiting next to me. I asked her how long she had been waiting and she said 25 minutes for 2 donuts as well. Finally, I asked the person standing around why she wasn't helping make the donuts. The cashier at that time, jumped into action and started making donuts as well. They cleared the back orders after that in just a couple minutes. Why weren't they all working to start with? Why did it take a customer to ask about their procedures for them to get everything made? Not sure, but know I won't be going back for a while until they get things straightened out.
(2)Brad W.
At 2 bucks per small donut, these things better be decent. The taste all depends on what you like, so this review and any review of these types of donuts are very subjective. All the donuts are the same, so if you like the donuts (which I did) then you won't have a bad experience unless you screw up your toppings. I had something with chocolate, so with the hot donut, those chips melt fast and all over your face, but it was still good. Too many choices too list, but if they can knock down the prices to a buck or so a donut, it would make better sense. It is still just a donut and instead of them making it in the back, they make it in front of you, so why the huge price increase? The novelty will wear off, but still it is a good place for a novelty visit if you are craving a new age donut.
(4)Katherine B.
We went in one evening after reading about what was new at Westgate. This was exciting since it's a new concept. We weren't greeted upon arrival. There was a group ahead of us that seemed unhappy and there were a few behind us as well. After ordering and literally watching the staff do nothing except look at each other until one of them started making dough--literally 12 mins after we ordered, the first group came up and seemed to have a confrontation with the manager. There were no experienced adults on staff so the young man who seemed to be in charge was very defensive. Finally after 20 mins we got 4 doughnuts that were subpar. Won't be returning.
(1)Ray T.
While it is a neat concept there are more cons then pro's. Cons: $16 for a dozen doughnuts? Long walk from the parking lot to the shop Cake doughnuts Westgate is not convenient at all Not the best doughnut I've had Long wait to actually get the doughnuts after ordering Had to hang out in the stinky greasy smelling place for the long wait Pro: Novelty
(2)Dee C.
The yummy bread is oh so amazing! The banana bread was my favorite! Wow! Great location and clean. We will definitely be back for another round!
(4)Kimberly T.

This is a fun and fantastic doughnut place! They have a very unique and creative way of doing business and bring you a fresh out of the fryer goodness. You start by picking out what you want on a sheet. They have several suggest kinds of doughnuts to choose from and even give you the option of creating your own master piece. You then walk up and pay for what you want which is all reasonably priced. Then you get to watch your doughnut being made in the fryer in front of you as is put it, flipped, and taken out. You watch as the glaze and toppings are put on then they are handed to you nice and hot! They taste exceptionally well with the key being lots of good ingredients and it fresh out of the fryer! You can sit inside or out to enjoy your food and of course there's a to go option for those on the run. All in all I was very impressed with this place and will be returning very soon!
(5)Lauren U.
I have been super excited to go to this place. So I just moved back home from being gone for about 5+ years. I walked in to (granted I walked in 5minutes before close) but every guest should get the same great customer experience no matter what time it was. There were two gentlemen working, and immediately put on a face once me and my friends walked in. (YOUR OPEN TILL 10, so serve me until 10) . We were looking at the menu, and one of the gentlemen was in the dining room cleaning and immediately shouted (We are closed, Lock the doors). Talk about a rude experience, thank you for taking my excitement and throwing it out the door. Guess I'll be going to a different location.
(1)Debbie T.
A-MA-ZING!!! If you've never had a light and airy doughnut, that's fresh and hot, with the toppings all gooey and drippy, then you haven't experienced pure bliss. They have their specialty doughnuts, but you can also customize to your liking. We've tried both, and they've all been deliciously decadent. For a special treat...give it a go...you'll be glad you did.
(5)Karina H.
These doughnuts will leave you thinking about them for days! My sister bought a couple for my husband and I and brought them over to our place. I am not a huge fan of doughnuts, so I was ready to place the small box on the counter for my husband to eat later, but when I grabbed the box I could feel that the doughnuts inside were still warm. I don't know about you, but when it comes to sweets, if they are still warm...ah, heaven. I immediately opened the box and saw that glaze was nice and melting, so were the chocolate chips my sister had picked for my doughnut. We hadn't eaten dinner yet, so I decided I would wild in a very controlled way and only take one bite. HA! Joke was on me! I couldn't stop eating it. The doughnuts were the perfect consistency. They were slightly crunchy on the outside and soft and cakey on the inside. So good. Nothing like what feels like stale puffs of air from Krispy Kreme. I can't say much about their customer service because I haven't been in the shop. Try them. You will not regret it.
(4)Gregory R.
Favorite donut shop! If in the area this is a must stop. The donuts are cooked fresh to order.
(5)Natasha A.
I bought the carnival (honey glaze and rainbow sprinkles), coffee cake, and blackberry cobbler doughnuts and they were all good. My favorite was the carnival. The service was even better than the doughnuts. All smiles and very helpful. :) They have a large selection you can choose from, and you can even create your own doughnut by picking any glaze with any two toppings. For example, vanilla glaze with mini M&M's and rainbow sprinkles. I'll call it the "state fair." :P
(4)Jen A.
The customer service was great but the doughnuts are horrible! Gross, small, nasty oil taste with flavor on top to cover up a Cminus doughnut. Then served too hot that it took me 5 minutes before I could eat it. If you are going to be in the doughnut business, at least be good at the old fashioned. I'll stick with Northern Perks and Welcome doughnuts.
(3)Luciana L.
The donuts were deeee-lish!! it's a wee-bit on the small end but it is quite the delectable treat so you don't want to indulge too much! I don't know if it's worth the $2+ per donut but they were quite good. The staff was nice and the coffee was strong. Definitely worth stopping by. It took them a while to get our order so I don't know if it's worth coming when they are super-busy. Just a heads up!
(4)Janet N.
I'm a raised donut kind of gal, so giving Fractured Prune a try you can say there was a bit of a hesitation. However, with the rave reviews and smells of deep fried goodness wafting through the air, it was hard not to be drawn in especially with the idea of DIY donuts? How can you resist? Even with a donut bias. I decided to go with two self made donuts and one from the menu: 1) Peach Glaze & Graham Crackers 2) Maple Glaze & Bacon 3) Caramel Glaze & Sea Salt The cake donuts themselves are so airy, moist and warm. They had a slight crisp exterior and soft contrasting interior, it was superb! Kind of similar to funnel cake! The Peach Glaze and Graham Crackers left a lot to be desired, not much peach flavor or that great cinnamon flavor found in Graham Crackers. The Maple Glaze was good, though the Bacon was a bit soggy and soft. The Caramel Glaze was subtle in Caramel flavor and was salty, nothing too complex here. Big fan of the choice of creating my own donut, the freshness of donuts here and the great texture of their cake donuts. The glazes aren't great and toppings weren't bold in flavor by any means, but I believe with Fractured Prune ... less is more, stick to a classic glaze and enjoy. Would definitely come back, but probably with a maple or chocolate glaze only.
(3)Kurdy S.
"Fractured Prune?" What does that even mean? It sure got my attention. I actually first heard of it through word of mouth, so I had to see what its all about. In a nutshell, its the Chipotle of Doughtnuts. Sort of. You won't see a glass counter full of pre-made doughnuts, your order is made freshly in front of you. As you go through the line and try to figure what you want, you are just overwhelmed with choices. There's a slew of different doughnut creations you can have them make OR just invent a custom one to your tasting. I guess that's the beauty and uniqueness they bring.' The one thing I can judge at this point is the base doughnut which is what every guest starts out with before deciding on what concoction of toppings you end up with. To simply put it, its very "cake-y." You get to see the entire process, literally made in front of you, from the raw doughnut ring dropping into the frying all the way to it rolling off the fryer. As a huge doughnut fan, its a fun experience to see. As far as toppings are concerned, it truly is an abundance of choices. Jokingly, I'm no good when it comes to choices, I take too long to decide. I go with my guts and what my taste buds are typically drawn too is how I end up deciding. Anyways, if doughnuts if your thing and you love choices, you will love it.
(4)Kaily N.
I was skeptical.... Fractured Prune?? But I needed a coffee fix and there isn't much around for that so I decided to check this place out. Usually doughnut/donut places have coffee! (Right?! ) Located at the Westgate shops, not at the Outlet mall but the one closest to the hockey stadium. I walk in.... Smells delicious!! Right off the bat, it smells amazing and I was welcomed by a very cheerful girl behind the bar. She asked if I've ever been there before and come out from behind the counter to help me! I decided I no longer just wanted a coffee.... They have so many delicious choices and you can even make your own! Once you choose, you write the quantity of each doughnut you want on a piece of paper they supply and you pay. After you pay, they make the doughnuts right then and there, and since it wasn't crowded, my order came out super fast! They were so warm and moist. I had the Blueberry, Carnival, Coffee Cake, and Dulce de Leche and they were all amazing. They also offer hot or iced coffee and you can pour your own creamer, they offer flavors... And you put your own sugar, etc in it. This place is a definite must try and I will definitely be back!
(5)Anne C.
Cool concept!! Freshly made classic donuts. You choose the glaze. You choose the toppings. The world is your oyster! Lol. Lots of options for both glaze and toppings to choose from... Customize, or choose from their selected combinations. The donut itself has a great taste. Rich flavor, not too sweet. Dense, yet soft. Went there on a busy weeknight, but service is friendly and fast pace.
(4)Jen T.
We were so hungry after watching a movie at AMC. Fractured Prune was just right around the corner. They have such an interesting name. As a first-timer, everything was self-explanatory. There was a little order sheet that I could select from their menu or create my own. We ordered the dulce de leche & salted caramel; and created our own with maple glaze and double bacon. They have a donut fryer with a conveyor belt. The donut was super fresh. It was warm when I took my first bite. I would definitely return to create more donuts of my own!
(3)Deni G.
Not Just Your Average Doughnut As you enter the store you grab a order sheet, and begin the selection process. You can select from one of Fractured Prune Doughnuts most popular flavor combos, like OC Sand, Green with Envy, Death by Chocolate, Carnival, or Apple Pie, or you can pile-on whatever flavours and toppings you are craving. As you make your way to the counter you can see piles of hot, freshly made doughnuts, awaiting your requests for how they should be glazed and decorated. The doughnut artist drops dough into hot grease and fries your cake donuts up fresh and crispy. The piping-hot donuts are then liberally dipped into your topping choices as you watch and then the doughnuts are delivered to you piping hot and fresh. Our favorites were the Smores, Apple Pie, and Salted Carmel. But honestly, there probably isn't a doughnut we didn't like. The staff is friendly and helpful. The store is immaculate. Stop by you won't be disappointed .
(4)Kathy C.
Best donuts ever!!!! It's literally a create your own donut factory. so many toppings to choose from and they make the donuts while you watch! It's fun and fresh and so YUMMY!!! We came back the next day but they were closed. Wish they had this in LA!!!! You have to try these donuts!
(5)Sierra W.
I will always love KRISPY KREME more than any donut. But this place comes to second best. Seriously so yummy. They come out at the perfect temperature and so fresh. My first time I got the s'mores donut and the cookies and creme. Both are very very good. I was very satisfied. I will try two more the next time I go. If it was closer and donuts weren't so fattening I would have gone another time. I keep dreaming about a warm donut haha. But I recommend this place if you don't have a Krispy Kreme near you and if this is a decent distance. :)
(5)Sylvia G.
I like this place a lot! Always clean and fast. There are tons of options to choose from and your doughnut(s) are always fresh! My personal favs are the maple French toast and the apple pie! Sooooo delicious! They are a bit pricier but totally worth it! Unless you eat there too often then that's a different story :p
(5)Rob L.
Wow Bypassing the disconcerting name that makes me think of fiber-induced regularity, this place is A-MAY-ZING. Be warned that the long list of options makes for a lot of combinations. So, come ready to spend a few minutes putting your tastes to doughnuts the first time. The location is trendy and vibrant. The store is bright with pleasant staff. And the flavors make one salivate. FP's menu is split into specialty doughnuts and build-your-own. For the former, we ordered Blueberry Hill, Carmel Bliss, Chocolate Cherry, Dulce De Leche, Sand, French Toast, and a few others. On the custom list, you pick from a total of around 30 glazes and toppings. As they list, "There's no wrong way to make a doughnut." The doughnut bread is of the heavier, cake-type bread. One could stand for a meal if you want. Key word being "if". :o) Prices aren't bad, so you can go crazy. I ordered twice as many as I intended to, just because of all the flavors and the cost.
(5)Marie B.
Good not great, I think I need to try it again with different toppings. I do NOT recommend the bacon, cold and fatty on a warm doughnut was just not appetizing. Both my kids said they liked other doughnut places better and for almost $2 a pop not really worth it.
(3)Jacob E. G.
This place just opened up and I had a sweet tooth. I stopped on by and there was a short line but it took awhile to get the doughnuts which is expected considering they make them as you order. I like how they have a large variety for you to choose from. The doughnut I got was pretty good.
(4)Kevin O.
Having walked by a few times before and after Arizona Coyotes, this place caught my interest. On a recent Friday morning, I decided to treat my mom on her birthday to one of these delicious rings of goodness. We got three donuts to split (S'More, OC, and French Toast). As you can see first hand walking into the establishment, they are fresh, hot, and made to order. The original pastries were as amazing as they sounded! Overall, the staff was friendly, helpful, and fast. The place was clean too, but for as new as it is, you have to expect that. My brain is telling me we just can't go back, but my stomach is saying, we gotta try the_____. At a cost of $1.89 per donut, they are on the pricey side, but so worth it. Do yourself a favor, and cave in to your gut! May I suggest everything on the menu!
(4)Carizza R.
Fractured Prune makes their doughnuts to order, which is something that I can't commend them enough for. The other half of the FP experience is what makes or breaks each piece, as guests are left to select their own glaze and topping. From there, it's really a matter of what you're going to do with this responsibility that's been given to you. Are you going to leave it at it's most pure form and accentuate it with just a hint of your favorite glaze? Or will you walk out with an overgrown candy bar on top of a slightly fried piece of dough? FP lets you pick!
(4)Lita A.
I was a bit skeptical at the site of the plain donuts. They looked like cake donuts and I figured they'd be too hard. I'm happy to say, I was mistaken. I ordered the bacon donut, and my hubby ordered the French toast. These two were similar in their glaze, but mine had bacon sprinkled in the center. The outside of the donut was the perfect amount of crispness and the density of the donut was spot on. The inside was warm and I was able to savor each bite. I am a fan of Krispy Creme donuts but the way they melt in my mouth, always leaves me wanting another one (or two). This is not the case with Fractured Prune donuts. I could have had another but I felt satisfied with one. I look forward to trying more of their creations!
(4)Mei W.
So yes, the donuts are $2 a piece, and the donut itself isn't that big, BUT you get to choose a glaze and two toppings on a fresh, hot donut! Mmmm so good and so fresh. You can choose from one of their favorites, or make your own. I got the honey glaze with coconut and sea salt. Sweet with a hint of saltiness, yum! The guy that helped us, maybe the manager, was so very nice. He welcomed us and thanked us for giving them a try, explained how to order donuts, and was genuine the whole time! By the way, to order, you fill out this paper with the kinds of donuts you want, and then you bring it up to the register. I like it this way, so people that don't know what they want don't hold up the line... Anyways, the donut was very good, and one was enough for me. I wouldn't come here to buy a dozen of these for breakfast, but I would definitely come here as a dessert place for after dinner, movies, or hanging with some friends.
(5)Jade W.
My boyfriend and I finally decided to try this place after going in two different times just to look. All the different flavor combinations kinda freak me out a little bit since I tend to stick with glazed or chocolate frosted donuts. We decided to try the O.C. Sand (honey glaze + cinnamon sugar) and Cookies & Cream (vanilla glaze + cookie crumbs). I liked the sheets of paper that you make your selections on (like Which Wich, where we had eaten earlier). Got to watch our donuts being made. I thought the pools of glaze that they plop the donuts into looked strange and also noticed the toppings get cross-contaminated from the different glazes. Hmm... interesting. When I tried the donuts, I was pleasantly surprised! They were still warm and had a nice texture. For some reason I thought the donuts were going to be cold and dense. Definitely happy with our selections. I guess I'll have to come back and try some other flavors.

Holy shit. These are the best donuts I've ever had. They are made fresh the minute you order them so the donuts were nice and warm by the time I got them home. The glazes are perfect. Not too sweet to where it overpowers the donuts and not too think to where you can't taste it. I got a dozen for 17.63. I think it said single donuts are about 1.80. I wish this wasn't so close to me... This could be dangerous.
(5)Melissa Y.
I really like the concept, and wanted to love it. There is a great selection of glazes and toppings ... unfortunately the donut itself is not for me. Instead of the typical soft and airy donut, it's dense and cake-like, similar to what you can buy prepackaged in the supermarket snack section. I just don't like this type or flavor of donut, so that sort of ruins the overall experience for me.
(3)Ty A.
My girls loved this place! They loved it so much I had to take them back the following weekend with their friends.

A fresh, hot doughnut straight out of the fryer which could potentially be made any way I want it. This should be a dream come true. But there are too many flaws to the concept, that just makes Fractured Prune feel like nothing more than an overpriced snack. 1. $1.80 for a standard size doughnut. That's a pretty hefty price tag. 2. There's only one actual doughnut type. You can cover it with any glaze you want to add flavor. But all of the doughnuts are the same plain cake doughnut. There isn't even an option for a chocolate doughnut. Seems like a missed opportunity for extra flavors. 3. Most of the toppings are same items you can find at any self-serve frozen yogurt shop. It kind of makes me wish I were saving myself the fat and calories and eating at one of those places. 4. If you eat it right away you will (a) burn the hell out of your mouth [yes, it's that fresh which should be a good thing] and (b) will only taste the oil. Seems kind of silly that I need to wait for doughnut to cool down before I can taste it. 5. Potentially long wait. The first time I tried a doughnut here there was a sizable line to order, which also turned into a quite a wait for a doughnut. Not exactly the type of snack I have much patience to wait for. 6. A really stupid name. I know there's some crazy story behind it about the original location's landlady, but I still feel like an idiot saying I bought a doughnut from the Fractured Prune. But having said all that; The Fractured Prune is still a lot better than most of the standard doughnut chains. So if you don't have the time to go out of the way to a small shop, you're much better off picking up doughnuts from here.

Omgosh!!! It's like heaven in your mouth. Made fresh in front of your eyes. Dulce de leche is delicious. French toast is a must. Blueberry too sweet
(5)Skip S.
I really love this custom donut shop. They not only have a number of different toppings, but you can customize your own. They are fresh as well. They are made to order somewhat like a Subway sandwich shop. You can see them create your donut. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The shop is very clean as well. I will be returning and also tell my friends about it as well!
(5)Jayne G.
Donuts are ok. I think it's too sweet for my taste. Or maybe because the one that made my donut put too much vanilla glaze. I saw how her face changed that she made it wrong but whatever. It's just nice to see how they make their donuts and that the donuts are fresh.
(3)Eddie C.
Was feeling like something sweet so decided to try this place out. It definitely has an odd name but a pretty cool concept. It's like a Subway but instead of sandwiches you create your own donuts. They have a wide variety of choices. I realized all the donuts are the same plain donuts just with different glazes and toppings. The donuts are freshly made so they are nice and hot which makes them taste better. Only negative is the price as each donut is about $2. You can save money by getting a dozen but that'll also set you back about $16. I can also see how you might be there a while waiting for your donuts to be made if store is busy. We waited about 7 minutes for 7 donuts and there was only one other person there when we ordered. Would probably come again if I'm back in the area to try some other flavors.
(4)Lisa S.
Delicious with so many different selections to choose from to make your own doughnut. They also offer military discount.
(5)Christina M.
I had heard ravings about this place so we checked it out. Very interesting as they make your donuts to order. I think that the donuts are quite good, although a bit expensive per the size of the donut. I would like for them to try real fruit glazes rather than the artificial glazes that you see.
(4)Bobby H.
Get 'em - and eat 'em - while they're hot! Something for everyone, that's for sure! Love the concept but even with the very clever ordering process (you see photos while waiting in line and use sushi-like ordering sheets once you've decided; good luck with that!), I can imagine it takes quite a long time to get your order if there's more than a few people in line. FYI-it took 10-15 minutes to get ours and there was only one family in front of us... But that Bacon Bomb doughnut was pretty darn good. So if you've got the time and you've earned a little treat, do give it a try!
(4)Michelle S.
I'm not usually a fan of cake doughnuts, but thought I'd give this place a try. I'm glad I did, but I wasn't blown away. There's a simple ordering process, the donuts are made fresh and to order, and you're in and out pretty quickly considering what's going on with the doughnuts. I ordered a Strawberry Princess (don't judge me!) thinking it would be extremely sweet. My husband made his own with maple glaze and bacon. We left with still hot donuts in a box and headed home. We have now sampled these doughnuts, and while it's not at all what I expected, it's not terrible. My Princess didn't taste like anything but the cake itself. No strawberry flavoring to be found. The maple glaze is flavorless as well, according to my husband. If the glazes were a bit stronger/more potent I would be back here weekly. The doughnuts themselves are really good, but not enough to draw me back time and again. It's a great concept and an awesome location, but not my favorite dessert option in the vicinity.
(4)RockAFire S.
Any donut flavor you can imagine. Very modern concept. They only offer cake donuts, not raised. They are fried fresh as you order. Very fun to visit, price keeps them from getting 5 stars. (16.00/dozen)
(4)Kallie A.
My husband and I had a date night at Westgate. We have seem this place on twitter so we thought we would try it. It was really busy so I could see it was very popular. We wrote on the paper what we wanted. We took it up to the cashier and we watched how they made the donuts. It was really neat watching them cook and watching them decorated with all the toppings. We got a salted Carmel, 2 mocha, cookie and cream, and a Smore's. The donuts were delicious. It is alil spendy so we won't be going all the time but we would definitely go again.
(5)Amanda M.
My boyfriend and I found out that this was a doughnut place after walking around WestGate. We were excited for a different doughnut place besides Dunkin or QT. We were hardly impressed. They fry the dough too fast. The outside has a weird texture and the inside wasn't cooked the full way through. We could barely taste the flavor of the glazes. We love the idea of it, but they need to slow down and actually DUNK the donuts in the glaze. They get 3 stars because it has potential to grow. We will probably go to the waffle place across the way before we go back here.
(3)Ron G.
This place is a 5+ the concept is different and very unique. If someone says they have bad or stale donuts hen they are smoking something. If you want a donut with a twist then this is the place to go!!
(5)Iam_ W.
Great and creative way to get donuts. Fast service，you can order what ever glazed and toppings that you like! Bacon topping? You got it. You should try. Hot and fresh donut made to order.
(4)Lauren M.
If I could give a half rating I would-2.5 stars. This place was just alright. Definitely cool concept but the doughnuts itself are fried way too long and aren't the same consistency as most shops. Took the 30 minute drive and wasn't impressed. I'll stick to Bosa and save my mileage
(2)Stacy Z.
Donuts, toppings (bacon!), icing, and a great price. This is, as you probably have already realized, a doughnut shop where you choose an icing and a topping for your plain doughnut. Yes, the doughnuts are admittedly not huge, but I think for $1.89 apiece it was a fair serving. The ordering process is easy and you either customize a doughnut or choose one of their designs. I went with mocha icing and bacon and M&M's for the topping. Admittedly, the m&m's might have been a bit over the top, but it was tasty. I think if the doughnut had been any larger it would have been too much. It is nice to see some interesting places coming to Westgate after all of the chain mediocrity that is already there.
(4)Matthew S.
Best single donut ive ever had. Not sure if its because it was fresh just cooked or they all taste awesome. We got caramel glazed and the toppings were Oreo Cookies and sea salt. It had this amazing crunch. Soft and warm inside and then crunchy savory flavor on top. only had one but will definitely be back. This was my first timeat Fractured Prune. PS - the name after some woman nothing to do with doughnuts. It was bothering me the whole afternoon until i found out why the name. :-)
(5)Jene J.
We were in West Gate distract this evening and the kids came across this place... Lots of favors and toppings to pick from it took us awhile I loved the sea salt and bacon! Very clean ... Friendly staff... Fast service for the large amount of people there this evening.... We will return again soon
(5)Terry M.
Very cute concept but poorly executed. From what I can see there are 4 employees and only one making the donuts. Needless to say having to wait 10 minutes for a pricy donut not so great. They are set up to have two donut stations but working only on one. This is a first and last visit for us
(1)Christine D.
The salted caramel is heaven in your mouth. Extremely helpful employees with simple ordering system. Bonus.. You can make your own doughnut! Reasonably priced in swanky Westgate!
(4)Eric F.
The donuts taste delicious! Great variety and made fresh as you order. A very moist warm cake style donut. Here is the challenge. There is no leadership in this place. The owner is absent there is no vision. The employees are simply there to fill orders and collect a paycheck. An employee, in between preparing donuts, took out a towel and wiped down the counter top with her gloves on, she the. Processed to handle the donuts with the same gloves. No employees corrected her and she proceeded to touch everyone's donuts with dirty gloves. The boxes are placed on top of the donut toppings while they fill them with donuts. The place does not look clean and there is clearly a lack of motivation or inspiration for these employees. Cmon leadership, where are you?
(3)Amos C.
The husband and I have major sweet tooths, so we decided to give this place a try. It's great. The selection and combination are pretty vast. A must if you like donuts. We will definitely be back.
(5)Hue H.
I give this place a thumbs up! I'm so impress with how soft the donut is and how it just melts in your mouth. You can experience the donuts being freshly made right in front of you. Although its a cake donut, I'm surprise on how well the dough is and how spot on it was fried. So soft and yummy! The toppings we're not so overpowering, it is well balanced and beautifully made. I took my 9 yr old son, and he loves it as much as i did. Krispy Kremes, you have competition! I will be coming back for more
(5)Sarah F.
This is like the Coldstone Creamery for donuts. They have a bunch of different toppings (mini marshmallows, chocolate chips, nuts, dried fruit, Oreos etc) and a bunch of different glazes ( banana, cherry, marsh employ). They make the donuts in front of you from the batter to the fryer to the toppings. The donut is more of a sweet bread flavor then a traditional donut. They also have breakfast sandwiches which is eggs, cheese and meat with a donut as the bread. It's a little on the pricey side for donuts and they are on the smaller side but it's a fun experience. And I love the name! I probably won't be back as the waffle place across the way looks way better.
(3)Tabitha A.
These doughnuts are the best , I could eat one everyday !!! Every time I'm in Glendale we stop and get doughnuts I want to try them all . So far the ones I have tried are delicious . If you haven't had one you need to !!!!
(5)Johnny H.
Don't let the hype draw you in, fancy toppings does not make this a good donut , it's sub par overall. Cake doughnut tasted like the fry oil was old and the toppings are not of much quality. I LOVE doughnuts ... Repeat ,LOVE them! By far the best ones in Az either come from Rainbow my personal favorite , Bosa a close second and Lamars a great runner up . A plain French curler at any of these places is leaps and bounds better than the fancy Fractured Prune treat .
(2)Kat B.
Yummy doughnuts with creative flavors and friendly staff, but a little pricey.
(4)Sandra H.
Omg these donuts are amazing. My sil got them one time and I decided to take my son today he loves this place. Favorite donut place
(5)Steve F.
As already said not a fan of caked donuts but these were amazing. Ordered strawberry shortcake and cookies n cream, custom-maple glaze with bacon and chocolate glaze with mini chocolate chips and oreo crumbs. Fave was the maple bacon. If short on time strongly recommended calling in the order or online.
(5)Renee K.
After walking past the "Coming Soon" sign for a few months I was excited to see that they were finally open. Sadly, the anticipation did not live up to the reality. We ordered three donuts: salted caramel, maple glaze with bacon, and chocolate glaze with chocolate chips. The chocolate glaze was so thin that had it not been for the chocolate chips I wouldn't have known there was any chocolate on the donut. The other two were greasy (I know they are fried but grease was the main flavor.) As for the customer service it was as bad if not worse. We waited 15 to 20 minutes for 3 donuts. Two other orders were served between the time we ordered and received our donuts. They were both two donuts each so they were not busy. One worker wandered around the store, in front and behind the counter, with what looked like an iced coffee clutched in one hand. Another, looked as though he were having trouble reading and called out "Sam" before the coffee-clutcher told him the name was "Scott". the other two workers were by the dough machine. I'm not sure if there was a problem with the machine or if they were making a fresh batch of dough. As a reminder, you never get a second chance to make a first impression. I won't be going back.
(1)Kimberly J.
Different, fun, and yummy! Definitely not your average donut shoppe. Its nice that you can pick one of many popular flavors or create your own. We tried about 5 flavors and would get about 4 of those again next time. The only thing that would make it better to me is combining this method with a krispy kreme donut which is sweeter and more dense than the Fractured Prune donuts which are more fluffy and cake-like.
(4)Jeannette M.
I was excited to walk in to this place. The cake was delicious and the toppings were just enough to not make it too sweet. I'll go again to create my own.
(4)Jean L.
As a former Marylander familiar with the original Fractured Prune oceanside location, I was soooo excited to see them come to Arizona. The Westgate store is perfection. An efficient, well staffed operation. And then there's those hot out-of-the-fryer doughnuts! I was in doughnut heaven. As many reviewers commented, you custom order your doughnut from a wide variety of glazes and topings, or choose one of their specialty creations. I ordered one to eat there (with their amazing coffee), and a half-dozen to take home. A few seconds in the microwave brings them back to their original hot out of the fryer deliciousness. Thank you, Fracture Prune, for coming to the West Valley!!!
(5)Reese E.
I can't say I was impressed by the doughnuts. Friends of ours said it was great so we tried it. We bought a dozen and couldn't taste the flavor of the donuts. The only one we really could taste was the death by chocolate. The apple pie smelled like apple pie, but certainly didn't taste like one. The salted caramel was ok, but the salt lingered after you eat the donut. Disappointed, but we tried it.
(1)Samantha T.
Cool concept but all the donuts taste the same. We got Carnival, French Toast, Marshmallow, S'more, and Oreo. Too heavy for me and pricey for a donut. Probably wouldn't try again. Coffee is good.
(2)T F.
While the $2.00 doughnut price is steep, this place will become my "once in a while" guilty food snack place. I tried the "Bacon Bomb" doughnut...SHOCK AND AWE OF PURE YUM!!!
(4)Melissa M.
They are cake doughnuts, so keep that in mind. They are really good though. We went in on a Thursday night 10 minutes before closing and a movie had just gotten out. There was a girl on the staff that was really annoyed that we were there and wasn't trying to hide her annoyance at all. She wouldn't let it go and kept rolling her eyes. Made me feel bad for being there.

I heard from lots of people that this is a very nice place with tasty donuts. I m not impressed. The idea is nice have a donut ur way with lots of toppings and combinations, but the donuts itself is not even close to be good one . The oil they were cooked in was almost black ( I didn't know when it was changed last time) compered to donuts from bobbyq it is nothing. Won't go again . And not going to recommend.

While it is a neat concept there are more cons then pro's. Cons: $16 for a dozen doughnuts? Long walk from the parking lot to the shop Cake doughnuts Westgate is not convenient at all Not the best doughnut I've had Long wait to actually get the doughnuts after ordering Had to hang out in the stinky greasy smelling place for the long wait Pro: Novelty
(2)Vernon W.
I hate writing this review because I've eaten there in the past and it was very good. I went in this morning, June 5th and there were 4 employees working; a cashier, a cook, and 2 people making donuts, or maybe I should say 1 1/2 person making donuts as 1 was working very hard, the other would make a couple, then clean for 10 minutes, then make a couple more. I ordered my usual 2 donuts thinking I'd get them in 5 - 10 minutes as usual. 20 minutes later, still no donuts and same employee suppossed to be making donuts, just standing around like she was lost. 1 other lady was waiting next to me. I asked her how long she had been waiting and she said 25 minutes for 2 donuts as well. Finally, I asked the person standing around why she wasn't helping make the donuts. The cashier at that time, jumped into action and started making donuts as well. They cleared the back orders after that in just a couple minutes. Why weren't they all working to start with? Why did it take a customer to ask about their procedures for them to get everything made? Not sure, but know I won't be going back for a while until they get things straightened out.
(2)Dee C.
The yummy bread is oh so amazing! The banana bread was my favorite! Wow! Great location and clean. We will definitely be back for another round!
(4)Debbie T.
A-MA-ZING!!! If you've never had a light and airy doughnut, that's fresh and hot, with the toppings all gooey and drippy, then you haven't experienced pure bliss. They have their specialty doughnuts, but you can also customize to your liking. We've tried both, and they've all been deliciously decadent. For a special treat...give it a go...you'll be glad you did.
(5)Kimberly T.
This place is genius!!! Doughnuts any way you want!! These were delicious, but not good the next day! Do not buy extra thinking you will eat them for breakfast. Also the wait is worth it, but it does take a while to have it your way :) We will be back for sure!
(4)Mark N.
The donuts were good. I had two. The Black Forest and Smores. The donut was lighter than I thought it would be being a cake donut which was good. The donuts were also fresh. I have nothing bad to say about the donuts themselves or the service. They are overpriced though as the donuts are only about Entemenns size and two donuts cost over 4.00! The price is the only thing bringing down the score.
(3)Lucia F.
Aside from the cashier having to ring up every doughnut individually, I thought this place was awesome. Their bacon bomb was simply amazing! A must try if you're visiting the west gate area.

I bought the carnival (honey glaze and rainbow sprinkles), coffee cake, and blackberry cobbler doughnuts and they were all good. My favorite was the carnival. The service was even better than the doughnuts. All smiles and very helpful. :) They have a large selection you can choose from, and you can even create your own doughnut by picking any glaze with any two toppings. For example, vanilla glaze with mini M&M's and rainbow sprinkles. I'll call it the "state fair." :P
(4)Jen A.
The customer service was great but the doughnuts are horrible! Gross, small, nasty oil taste with flavor on top to cover up a Cminus doughnut. Then served too hot that it took me 5 minutes before I could eat it. If you are going to be in the doughnut business, at least be good at the old fashioned. I'll stick with Northern Perks and Welcome doughnuts.
(3)Luciana L.
The donuts were deeee-lish!! it's a wee-bit on the small end but it is quite the delectable treat so you don't want to indulge too much! I don't know if it's worth the $2+ per donut but they were quite good. The staff was nice and the coffee was strong. Definitely worth stopping by. It took them a while to get our order so I don't know if it's worth coming when they are super-busy. Just a heads up!
(4)Janet N.
I'm a raised donut kind of gal, so giving Fractured Prune a try you can say there was a bit of a hesitation. However, with the rave reviews and smells of deep fried goodness wafting through the air, it was hard not to be drawn in especially with the idea of DIY donuts? How can you resist? Even with a donut bias. I decided to go with two self made donuts and one from the menu: 1) Peach Glaze & Graham Crackers 2) Maple Glaze & Bacon 3) Caramel Glaze & Sea Salt The cake donuts themselves are so airy, moist and warm. They had a slight crisp exterior and soft contrasting interior, it was superb! Kind of similar to funnel cake! The Peach Glaze and Graham Crackers left a lot to be desired, not much peach flavor or that great cinnamon flavor found in Graham Crackers. The Maple Glaze was good, though the Bacon was a bit soggy and soft. The Caramel Glaze was subtle in Caramel flavor and was salty, nothing too complex here. Big fan of the choice of creating my own donut, the freshness of donuts here and the great texture of their cake donuts. The glazes aren't great and toppings weren't bold in flavor by any means, but I believe with Fractured Prune ... less is more, stick to a classic glaze and enjoy. Would definitely come back, but probably with a maple or chocolate glaze only.

"Fractured Prune?" What does that even mean? It sure got my attention. I actually first heard of it through word of mouth, so I had to see what its all about. In a nutshell, its the Chipotle of Doughtnuts. Sort of. You won't see a glass counter full of pre-made doughnuts, your order is made freshly in front of you. As you go through the line and try to figure what you want, you are just overwhelmed with choices. There's a slew of different doughnut creations you can have them make OR just invent a custom one to your tasting. I guess that's the beauty and uniqueness they bring.' The one thing I can judge at this point is the base doughnut which is what every guest starts out with before deciding on what concoction of toppings you end up with. To simply put it, its very "cake-y." You get to see the entire process, literally made in front of you, from the raw doughnut ring dropping into the frying all the way to it rolling off the fryer. As a huge doughnut fan, its a fun experience to see. As far as toppings are concerned, it truly is an abundance of choices. Jokingly, I'm no good when it comes to choices, I take too long to decide. I go with my guts and what my taste buds are typically drawn too is how I end up deciding. Anyways, if doughnuts if your thing and you love choices, you will love it.

I was skeptical.... Fractured Prune?? But I needed a coffee fix and there isn't much around for that so I decided to check this place out. Usually doughnut/donut places have coffee! (Right?! ) Located at the Westgate shops, not at the Outlet mall but the one closest to the hockey stadium. I walk in.... Smells delicious!! Right off the bat, it smells amazing and I was welcomed by a very cheerful girl behind the bar. She asked if I've ever been there before and come out from behind the counter to help me! I decided I no longer just wanted a coffee.... They have so many delicious choices and you can even make your own! Once you choose, you write the quantity of each doughnut you want on a piece of paper they supply and you pay. After you pay, they make the doughnuts right then and there, and since it wasn't crowded, my order came out super fast! They were so warm and moist. I had the Blueberry, Carnival, Coffee Cake, and Dulce de Leche and they were all amazing. They also offer hot or iced coffee and you can pour your own creamer, they offer flavors... And you put your own sugar, etc in it. This place is a definite must try and I will definitely be back!

Cool concept!! Freshly made classic donuts. You choose the glaze. You choose the toppings. The world is your oyster! Lol. Lots of options for both glaze and toppings to choose from... Customize, or choose from their selected combinations. The donut itself has a great taste. Rich flavor, not too sweet. Dense, yet soft. Went there on a busy weeknight, but service is friendly and fast pace.

We were so hungry after watching a movie at AMC. Fractured Prune was just right around the corner. They have such an interesting name. As a first-timer, everything was self-explanatory. There was a little order sheet that I could select from their menu or create my own. We ordered the dulce de leche & salted caramel; and created our own with maple glaze and double bacon. They have a donut fryer with a conveyor belt. The donut was super fresh. It was warm when I took my first bite. I would definitely return to create more donuts of my own!

Not Just Your Average Doughnut As you enter the store you grab a order sheet, and begin the selection process. You can select from one of Fractured Prune Doughnuts most popular flavor combos, like OC Sand, Green with Envy, Death by Chocolate, Carnival, or Apple Pie, or you can pile-on whatever flavours and toppings you are craving. As you make your way to the counter you can see piles of hot, freshly made doughnuts, awaiting your requests for how they should be glazed and decorated. The doughnut artist drops dough into hot grease and fries your cake donuts up fresh and crispy. The piping-hot donuts are then liberally dipped into your topping choices as you watch and then the doughnuts are delivered to you piping hot and fresh. Our favorites were the Smores, Apple Pie, and Salted Carmel. But honestly, there probably isn't a doughnut we didn't like. The staff is friendly and helpful. The store is immaculate. Stop by you won't be disappointed .
(4)Kathy C.
Best donuts ever!!!! It's literally a create your own donut factory. so many toppings to choose from and they make the donuts while you watch! It's fun and fresh and so YUMMY!!! We came back the next day but they were closed. Wish they had this in LA!!!! You have to try these donuts!
(5)Sierra W.
I will always love KRISPY KREME more than any donut. But this place comes to second best. Seriously so yummy. They come out at the perfect temperature and so fresh. My first time I got the s'mores donut and the cookies and creme. Both are very very good. I was very satisfied. I will try two more the next time I go. If it was closer and donuts weren't so fattening I would have gone another time. I keep dreaming about a warm donut haha. But I recommend this place if you don't have a Krispy Kreme near you and if this is a decent distance. :)
(5)Sylvia G.
I like this place a lot! Always clean and fast. There are tons of options to choose from and your doughnut(s) are always fresh! My personal favs are the maple French toast and the apple pie! Sooooo delicious! They are a bit pricier but totally worth it! Unless you eat there too often then that's a different story :p
(5)Rob L.
Wow Bypassing the disconcerting name that makes me think of fiber-induced regularity, this place is A-MAY-ZING. Be warned that the long list of options makes for a lot of combinations. So, come ready to spend a few minutes putting your tastes to doughnuts the first time. The location is trendy and vibrant. The store is bright with pleasant staff. And the flavors make one salivate. FP's menu is split into specialty doughnuts and build-your-own. For the former, we ordered Blueberry Hill, Carmel Bliss, Chocolate Cherry, Dulce De Leche, Sand, French Toast, and a few others. On the custom list, you pick from a total of around 30 glazes and toppings. As they list, "There's no wrong way to make a doughnut." The doughnut bread is of the heavier, cake-type bread. One could stand for a meal if you want. Key word being "if". :o) Prices aren't bad, so you can go crazy. I ordered twice as many as I intended to, just because of all the flavors and the cost.
(5)Mei W.
So yes, the donuts are $2 a piece, and the donut itself isn't that big, BUT you get to choose a glaze and two toppings on a fresh, hot donut! Mmmm so good and so fresh. You can choose from one of their favorites, or make your own. I got the honey glaze with coconut and sea salt. Sweet with a hint of saltiness, yum! The guy that helped us, maybe the manager, was so very nice. He welcomed us and thanked us for giving them a try, explained how to order donuts, and was genuine the whole time! By the way, to order, you fill out this paper with the kinds of donuts you want, and then you bring it up to the register. I like it this way, so people that don't know what they want don't hold up the line... Anyways, the donut was very good, and one was enough for me. I wouldn't come here to buy a dozen of these for breakfast, but I would definitely come here as a dessert place for after dinner, movies, or hanging with some friends.
(5)Jade W.
My boyfriend and I finally decided to try this place after going in two different times just to look. All the different flavor combinations kinda freak me out a little bit since I tend to stick with glazed or chocolate frosted donuts. We decided to try the O.C. Sand (honey glaze + cinnamon sugar) and Cookies & Cream (vanilla glaze + cookie crumbs). I liked the sheets of paper that you make your selections on (like Which Wich, where we had eaten earlier). Got to watch our donuts being made. I thought the pools of glaze that they plop the donuts into looked strange and also noticed the toppings get cross-contaminated from the different glazes. Hmm... interesting. When I tried the donuts, I was pleasantly surprised! They were still warm and had a nice texture. For some reason I thought the donuts were going to be cold and dense. Definitely happy with our selections. I guess I'll have to come back and try some other flavors.
(4)Sierra P.
Holy shit. These are the best donuts I've ever had. They are made fresh the minute you order them so the donuts were nice and warm by the time I got them home. The glazes are perfect. Not too sweet to where it overpowers the donuts and not too think to where you can't taste it. I got a dozen for 17.63. I think it said single donuts are about 1.80. I wish this wasn't so close to me... This could be dangerous.
(5)Melissa Y.
I really like the concept, and wanted to love it. There is a great selection of glazes and toppings ... unfortunately the donut itself is not for me. Instead of the typical soft and airy donut, it's dense and cake-like, similar to what you can buy prepackaged in the supermarket snack section. I just don't like this type or flavor of donut, so that sort of ruins the overall experience for me.
(3)Ty A.
My girls loved this place! They loved it so much I had to take them back the following weekend with their friends.
(4)Bobby H.
Get 'em - and eat 'em - while they're hot! Something for everyone, that's for sure! Love the concept but even with the very clever ordering process (you see photos while waiting in line and use sushi-like ordering sheets once you've decided; good luck with that!), I can imagine it takes quite a long time to get your order if there's more than a few people in line. FYI-it took 10-15 minutes to get ours and there was only one family in front of us... But that Bacon Bomb doughnut was pretty darn good. So if you've got the time and you've earned a little treat, do give it a try!
(4)Lacandice P.
the doughnuts are the best I ever taste. my son got to watch what he ordered be made right in front of him how cool.
(5)Nikki E.
I'm trying really hard to lose weight and places like this just aren't helping what so ever. SO and I went in to try it out after his co worker told him about it. Interesting place with a lot of good recipes, the create your own option is awesome as well. I picked a few flavors to try and I have never ever had a better donut. This place is great. Having first thought it was a senior dating service, I am so glad I was wrong.
(5)Richard R.
A fresh, hot doughnut straight out of the fryer which could potentially be made any way I want it. This should be a dream come true. But there are too many flaws to the concept, that just makes Fractured Prune feel like nothing more than an overpriced snack. 1. $1.80 for a standard size doughnut. That's a pretty hefty price tag. 2. There's only one actual doughnut type. You can cover it with any glaze you want to add flavor. But all of the doughnuts are the same plain cake doughnut. There isn't even an option for a chocolate doughnut. Seems like a missed opportunity for extra flavors. 3. Most of the toppings are same items you can find at any self-serve frozen yogurt shop. It kind of makes me wish I were saving myself the fat and calories and eating at one of those places. 4. If you eat it right away you will (a) burn the hell out of your mouth [yes, it's that fresh which should be a good thing] and (b) will only taste the oil. Seems kind of silly that I need to wait for doughnut to cool down before I can taste it. 5. Potentially long wait. The first time I tried a doughnut here there was a sizable line to order, which also turned into a quite a wait for a doughnut. Not exactly the type of snack I have much patience to wait for. 6. A really stupid name. I know there's some crazy story behind it about the original location's landlady, but I still feel like an idiot saying I bought a doughnut from the Fractured Prune. But having said all that; The Fractured Prune is still a lot better than most of the standard doughnut chains. So if you don't have the time to go out of the way to a small shop, you're much better off picking up doughnuts from here.
(3)Daisy M.
Omgosh!!! It's like heaven in your mouth. Made fresh in front of your eyes. Dulce de leche is delicious. French toast is a must. Blueberry too sweet
(5)Skip S.
I really love this custom donut shop. They not only have a number of different toppings, but you can customize your own. They are fresh as well. They are made to order somewhat like a Subway sandwich shop. You can see them create your donut. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The shop is very clean as well. I will be returning and also tell my friends about it as well!
(5)Jayne G.
Donuts are ok. I think it's too sweet for my taste. Or maybe because the one that made my donut put too much vanilla glaze. I saw how her face changed that she made it wrong but whatever. It's just nice to see how they make their donuts and that the donuts are fresh.
(3)Eddie C.
Was feeling like something sweet so decided to try this place out. It definitely has an odd name but a pretty cool concept. It's like a Subway but instead of sandwiches you create your own donuts. They have a wide variety of choices. I realized all the donuts are the same plain donuts just with different glazes and toppings. The donuts are freshly made so they are nice and hot which makes them taste better. Only negative is the price as each donut is about $2. You can save money by getting a dozen but that'll also set you back about $16. I can also see how you might be there a while waiting for your donuts to be made if store is busy. We waited about 7 minutes for 7 donuts and there was only one other person there when we ordered. Would probably come again if I'm back in the area to try some other flavors.
(4)Cody M.
This is a fun and fantastic doughnut place! They have a very unique and creative way of doing business and bring you a fresh out of the fryer goodness. You start by picking out what you want on a sheet. They have several suggest kinds of doughnuts to choose from and even give you the option of creating your own master piece. You then walk up and pay for what you want which is all reasonably priced. Then you get to watch your doughnut being made in the fryer in front of you as is put it, flipped, and taken out. You watch as the glaze and toppings are put on then they are handed to you nice and hot! They taste exceptionally well with the key being lots of good ingredients and it fresh out of the fryer! You can sit inside or out to enjoy your food and of course there's a to go option for those on the run. All in all I was very impressed with this place and will be returning very soon!
(5)Lauren U.
I have been super excited to go to this place. So I just moved back home from being gone for about 5+ years. I walked in to (granted I walked in 5minutes before close) but every guest should get the same great customer experience no matter what time it was. There were two gentlemen working, and immediately put on a face once me and my friends walked in. (YOUR OPEN TILL 10, so serve me until 10) . We were looking at the menu, and one of the gentlemen was in the dining room cleaning and immediately shouted (We are closed, Lock the doors). Talk about a rude experience, thank you for taking my excitement and throwing it out the door. Guess I'll be going to a different location.

These doughnuts will leave you thinking about them for days! My sister bought a couple for my husband and I and brought them over to our place. I am not a huge fan of doughnuts, so I was ready to place the small box on the counter for my husband to eat later, but when I grabbed the box I could feel that the doughnuts inside were still warm. I don't know about you, but when it comes to sweets, if they are still warm...ah, heaven. I immediately opened the box and saw that glaze was nice and melting, so were the chocolate chips my sister had picked for my doughnut. We hadn't eaten dinner yet, so I decided I would wild in a very controlled way and only take one bite. HA! Joke was on me! I couldn't stop eating it. The doughnuts were the perfect consistency. They were slightly crunchy on the outside and soft and cakey on the inside. So good. Nothing like what feels like stale puffs of air from Krispy Kreme. I can't say much about their customer service because I haven't been in the shop. Try them. You will not regret it.
(4)Gregory R.
Favorite donut shop! If in the area this is a must stop. The donuts are cooked fresh to order.
(5)Lisa S.
Delicious with so many different selections to choose from to make your own doughnut. They also offer military discount.
(5)Christina M.
I had heard ravings about this place so we checked it out. Very interesting as they make your donuts to order. I think that the donuts are quite good, although a bit expensive per the size of the donut. I would like for them to try real fruit glazes rather than the artificial glazes that you see.
(4)Brad W.
At 2 bucks per small donut, these things better be decent. The taste all depends on what you like, so this review and any review of these types of donuts are very subjective. All the donuts are the same, so if you like the donuts (which I did) then you won't have a bad experience unless you screw up your toppings. I had something with chocolate, so with the hot donut, those chips melt fast and all over your face, but it was still good. Too many choices too list, but if they can knock down the prices to a buck or so a donut, it would make better sense. It is still just a donut and instead of them making it in the back, they make it in front of you, so why the huge price increase? The novelty will wear off, but still it is a good place for a novelty visit if you are craving a new age donut.
(4)Katherine B.
We went in one evening after reading about what was new at Westgate. This was exciting since it's a new concept. We weren't greeted upon arrival. There was a group ahead of us that seemed unhappy and there were a few behind us as well. After ordering and literally watching the staff do nothing except look at each other until one of them started making dough--literally 12 mins after we ordered, the first group came up and seemed to have a confrontation with the manager. There were no experienced adults on staff so the young man who seemed to be in charge was very defensive. Finally after 20 mins we got 4 doughnuts that were subpar. Won't be returning.
(1)Marie B.
Good not great, I think I need to try it again with different toppings. I do NOT recommend the bacon, cold and fatty on a warm doughnut was just not appetizing. Both my kids said they liked other doughnut places better and for almost $2 a pop not really worth it.
(3)Jacob E. G.
This place just opened up and I had a sweet tooth. I stopped on by and there was a short line but it took awhile to get the doughnuts which is expected considering they make them as you order. I like how they have a large variety for you to choose from. The doughnut I got was pretty good.
(4)Kevin O.
Having walked by a few times before and after Arizona Coyotes, this place caught my interest. On a recent Friday morning, I decided to treat my mom on her birthday to one of these delicious rings of goodness. We got three donuts to split (S'More, OC, and French Toast). As you can see first hand walking into the establishment, they are fresh, hot, and made to order. The original pastries were as amazing as they sounded! Overall, the staff was friendly, helpful, and fast. The place was clean too, but for as new as it is, you have to expect that. My brain is telling me we just can't go back, but my stomach is saying, we gotta try the_____. At a cost of $1.89 per donut, they are on the pricey side, but so worth it. Do yourself a favor, and cave in to your gut! May I suggest everything on the menu!
(4)Carizza R.
Fractured Prune makes their doughnuts to order, which is something that I can't commend them enough for. The other half of the FP experience is what makes or breaks each piece, as guests are left to select their own glaze and topping. From there, it's really a matter of what you're going to do with this responsibility that's been given to you. Are you going to leave it at it's most pure form and accentuate it with just a hint of your favorite glaze? Or will you walk out with an overgrown candy bar on top of a slightly fried piece of dough? FP lets you pick!
(4)Lita A.
I was a bit skeptical at the site of the plain donuts. They looked like cake donuts and I figured they'd be too hard. I'm happy to say, I was mistaken. I ordered the bacon donut, and my hubby ordered the French toast. These two were similar in their glaze, but mine had bacon sprinkled in the center. The outside of the donut was the perfect amount of crispness and the density of the donut was spot on. The inside was warm and I was able to savor each bite. I am a fan of Krispy Creme donuts but the way they melt in my mouth, always leaves me wanting another one (or two). This is not the case with Fractured Prune donuts. I could have had another but I felt satisfied with one. I look forward to trying more of their creations!
(4)Summer M.
This place is great! Girls night out with movie, then went here after for the first time. They have a huge selection, seriously, they have every flavor imaginable. They make them right in front of you when you order them. It was fun to watch them. The prices were a little more than Dunkin' Donuts, but the quality is so much better. Love this place.
(5)Mya T.
I am pretty much a girl version of Homer Simpson. Needless to say, I was THRILLED to see a new donut shop so close to home and they did not disappoint! You walk in and are immediately engulfed in the smell of sweet, fried, deliciousness. Similar to Which Wich, you fill out an order form and are given the option of some of their pre-made flavor combos or customizing your own. The donuts are fairly priced and all of the employees were very sweet and helpful. The donuts are given to you piping hot with the toppings melting together perfectly. Also, I love that this place is named after a badass woman! I will definitely be back.
(5)Tim M.
Went in this past weekend, not knowing what it was but being drawn in by the menu. The idea is pretty cool, you can order some unique donuts or even build your own with various glazes and toppings but in the end, it was just a so-so cake donut that was pretty spendy. I would say you should check it out just because they're pretty unique and it's pretty great ordering a donut covered in bacon.
(3)Michelle S.
I'm not usually a fan of cake doughnuts, but thought I'd give this place a try. I'm glad I did, but I wasn't blown away. There's a simple ordering process, the donuts are made fresh and to order, and you're in and out pretty quickly considering what's going on with the doughnuts. I ordered a Strawberry Princess (don't judge me!) thinking it would be extremely sweet. My husband made his own with maple glaze and bacon. We left with still hot donuts in a box and headed home. We have now sampled these doughnuts, and while it's not at all what I expected, it's not terrible. My Princess didn't taste like anything but the cake itself. No strawberry flavoring to be found. The maple glaze is flavorless as well, according to my husband. If the glazes were a bit stronger/more potent I would be back here weekly. The doughnuts themselves are really good, but not enough to draw me back time and again. It's a great concept and an awesome location, but not my favorite dessert option in the vicinity.
(4)RockAFire S.
Any donut flavor you can imagine. Very modern concept. They only offer cake donuts, not raised. They are fried fresh as you order. Very fun to visit, price keeps them from getting 5 stars. (16.00/dozen)
(4)Kallie A.
My husband and I had a date night at Westgate. We have seem this place on twitter so we thought we would try it. It was really busy so I could see it was very popular. We wrote on the paper what we wanted. We took it up to the cashier and we watched how they made the donuts. It was really neat watching them cook and watching them decorated with all the toppings. We got a salted Carmel, 2 mocha, cookie and cream, and a Smore's. The donuts were delicious. It is alil spendy so we won't be going all the time but we would definitely go again.
(5)Iam_ W.
Great and creative way to get donuts. Fast service，you can order what ever glazed and toppings that you like! Bacon topping? You got it. You should try. Hot and fresh donut made to order.
(4)Lauren M.
If I could give a half rating I would-2.5 stars. This place was just alright. Definitely cool concept but the doughnuts itself are fried way too long and aren't the same consistency as most shops. Took the 30 minute drive and wasn't impressed. I'll stick to Bosa and save my mileage
(2)Stacy Z.
Donuts, toppings (bacon!), icing, and a great price. This is, as you probably have already realized, a doughnut shop where you choose an icing and a topping for your plain doughnut. Yes, the doughnuts are admittedly not huge, but I think for $1.89 apiece it was a fair serving. The ordering process is easy and you either customize a doughnut or choose one of their designs. I went with mocha icing and bacon and M&M's for the topping. Admittedly, the m&m's might have been a bit over the top, but it was tasty. I think if the doughnut had been any larger it would have been too much. It is nice to see some interesting places coming to Westgate after all of the chain mediocrity that is already there.
(4)Matthew S.
Best single donut ive ever had. Not sure if its because it was fresh just cooked or they all taste awesome. We got caramel glazed and the toppings were Oreo Cookies and sea salt. It had this amazing crunch. Soft and warm inside and then crunchy savory flavor on top. only had one but will definitely be back. This was my first timeat Fractured Prune. PS - the name after some woman nothing to do with doughnuts. It was bothering me the whole afternoon until i found out why the name. :-)
(5)Jene J.
We were in West Gate distract this evening and the kids came across this place... Lots of favors and toppings to pick from it took us awhile I loved the sea salt and bacon! Very clean ... Friendly staff... Fast service for the large amount of people there this evening.... We will return again soon
(5)Terry M.
Very cute concept but poorly executed. From what I can see there are 4 employees and only one making the donuts. Needless to say having to wait 10 minutes for a pricy donut not so great. They are set up to have two donut stations but working only on one. This is a first and last visit for us
(1)Christine D.
The salted caramel is heaven in your mouth. Extremely helpful employees with simple ordering system. Bonus.. You can make your own doughnut! Reasonably priced in swanky Westgate!
(4)
