50 Best Donuts in Chicago

“Delicious ♥️ the donuts just melt in your mouth.“

“My husband and I traveled from Seattle and had breakfast here two days in a row. The Think Pink donut is delicious! I also enjoyed a breakfast sandwich with bacon eggs and cheese. My husband had the chicken sandwich both days and enjoyed it. He also tried the old fashioned glazed donut and gives two thumbs up. The service is fast, too!

*Shout-out to Melissa for her cheerfulness and great recommendations.💗“

“Friendly staff unique menu. Very child friendly. Made good. Use of the space hot chocolate, fried chicken and donuts were out of this world delicious… overall a unique one-of-a-kind experience was had“

“Delicious fresh donuts, carefully packed and the orders are always right. Fantastic service. The people that work there are always so nice. Such a great place.“

“They were delicious. Glad we found it before we left town! Service was great also! Wait in line it’s worth it!!“

“Don’t let the photos fool you, these are hands down the best donuts I’ve ever had in my life. I was a little upset when my half dozen rang up to $47 (my fault for not looking at prices ahead of time) but was SO incredibly surprised by the flavor and texture of these donuts. The bakers have managed to find a way to make yeast donuts perfectly flavorful with no greasy feeling- they are light as a fluffy pillow with the slightest crisp from being fried. Honestly, to die for. Were still amazing even hours later!!“

“Used to sell out, so be aware of that. It's a one of a kind donut, which makes it worth the try at least once. I know people who didn't like it, but I liked it very much. You're guaranteed to have something that won't taste like any other donut.“

“We stopped by after the Cubs game yesterday and got a cheese danish donut and a Pumpkin Spice donut. Hands down the best both of us have ever had before! ❤️“

“it's all good to me, havnt had anything bad yet“

“Stumbled across this gem today with my children and what a treat! Very fresh and tasty donuts. What added to the experience was friendly customers who were patient with me and my picky kids. We were being typical newbies and needed time to get our order straight. Not only were they patient, they also were sooo sweet and secretly picked up everything we ordered. My kids and I could not stop talking about how nice of a gesture and how good it felt. Kids told me before bed, that today was the best day ever. In hopes you follow the page and see this, Thank you very much. 😊 🙏“

“Fantastic restaurant in the neighborhood serves excellent food and donuts and takes care of the neighborhood and the world. So grateful for their presence in Rogers Park. Also the peach spicy Sammy is to die for.“

“Such a cool and fun spot in the downtown Chicago area. Very small storefront with very unique and tasty doughnuts. We ordered the pistachio, orange poppyseed (sounds weird but trust me it's GOOD) and the apple cider doughnuts. They're very fresh and a great treat. The staff was super kind and helpful. They aren't the cheapest doughnuts but for a fun and unique experience, they're worth checking out!“

“I don't think this is blow your mind great but the location and vibe are fantastic. I wish I would have gotten a donut because they looked AMAZING. Unfortunately, I got the original breakfast sandwich and it was just okay. Some of the drink options also looked really interesting. Lesson learned that if donut is in the name, get the donut! Overall atmosphere is above average, service and the food I got were just average.“

“Donuts are fresh 10/10 recommend“

“I've never left a review on Maps before, but the service was so pleasant here that I felt compelled to!! The cashier was so friendly and greeted everyone who walked in + she was so considerate in preparing my order :) She also cleaned the tables so quickly after patrons walked in and out. So hardworking and sweet!! And my food was amazing 🩷🩷“

“Definitely great yummy food here. My friend lives off of Addison. The donuts, coffee and breakfast sandwiches are so good. I live in the suburbs in Aurora Naperville area and it’s always a treat for me to stop by and get Do-Rite donuts. Maybe one day there will be a Do-Rite donuts in Aurora/Naperville area in the future. I actually stopped at Do-Rite earlier today as I was in Chicago for the Cubs game. Keep up the great work everyone. You all make very good food. I’m already looking forward to my next visit to Do-Rite donuts.“

“Toffee donut! YES PLEASE. On our 4 day whirlwind visit we didn't go to many places multiple times...HOWEVER, Stan you da man! We visited every day to multiple locations. Great, friendly staff. Don't leave Chicago before heading to Stan's.“

“The hospitality here is just as AMAZING as the popcorn and doughnuts!! 🙌🏽 I highly recommend u stop by and check them out!! U’ll Thank me later 💯😘“

“Ran by great, kind people. Everything I’ve had has been delicious—pizza, donuts, bolillos, croissants! The donuts and bolillo sandwiches are my top recommendations. Best donuts I’ve had in Chicago and for the best price! Oh and the coffee is fantastic as well, nice and strong like I like it. I highly recommend it to anyone who lives in or is passing through South Chicago, just make sure it’s Saturday or Sunday! You won’t regret it! 😊“

“The mochi donuts were delicious—soft, chewy, and perfectly sweet. I also loved the variety of flavors and the unique presentation. The staff was friendly and welcoming, making the visit even better. Definitely a must-try spot if you’re in Chicago, especially for anyone who loves creative desserts!“

“Small coffee shop with a solid selection of specialty drinks along side a few sandwiches and pastries.

Seating is very tight, maybe space for 10 at most. Decor and art are nice and the place has good vibes.

Sandwiches could have been a bit better, maybe needed some kind of sauce. The drip and specialty drinks were very good though.“

“10 years, and I still love them. Everything is perfect at any location. Chicago’s premier roasters.“

“Amazing donuts every time I’m in Chicago I try to hit that place up it’s almost good as Mojo monkey donuts in Saint Paul sorry had to throw the plug-in“

“Thank you, Backlot Coffee, for letting us use our personal cups again and helping to protect the environment.“

Congratulations to this location for planning an amazing day for the bride and groom!“

“This place is such a gem. We were in town for the weekend and found this place next to our hotel. The atmosphere gives off a retro diner vibe but with a modern chic vibe. The service is awesome, the young women are cordial and friendly. They even got to know my son by his name who went there every day to buy coffee and sandwiches for his grandma. The donuts are delicious. Definitely will come back when we visit our daughter in Chicago.“

“I had one of the most friendliest interactions I've ever had in a dunkin! The worker that was shcudled today at 7 pm had such a friendly attitude that I couldn't help but wish her the best! I ordered 2 green teas and she explained that it's going to come out hot because she barely made it. I however didn't mind because who doesn't love hot fresh tea! :) she then proceeded to tell how she takes pride in her work because of how well she does it, and it for sure shows! 200/10 experience would recommend going here for your daily dunkin runs ?‍♀️“

“I went in specifically for shake but was told machine was down for past 3 or 4 days. wth??? donuts are ridiculous aka delicious iced Chai was decent but girl at counter is always a little curt/short not rude but not pleasant either.... you'd think working in a donut shop would make you happy....🤔🤔 guess not.“

“Pretty good coffee served via a walk up window. Nothing wrong with it, just many places for good coffee in the area and not the best one.

Update: The owner asked whose coffee we preferred. We thought Pedestrian Coffee and Brew Brew were probably the best we had this trip.“

“Best ice cream ever!!!! I am an ice cream snob when I’m on vacation. I have to have it every day and I walked miles to that ice cream parlor this week the owner and the boy Jake that worked there was such awesome people too. I will definitely be back. I went tonight because I’m leaving in the morning sorted caramel chunk.!!!! you will not be disappointed“

“**bring cash as it is cash only** Awesome little independently run place with delicious baked goods that are actually more affordable than store bought/grocery store brand? Highly recommend stopping by, the owner is wonderful and there is a decent variety of goods!“

“Stopped by on a random chance, they serve coffee by Happy Monday Roasters, unfortunately they did not have any Whole Milk so no Cortado this trip. But did have an amazing stinky ( in a good way) everything Bagel. Staff was very friendly, I asked about all the little bears, he said was for their signature drink, Honey Lavender Latte, not ‘my’ thing but cool idea !“
