50 Best Donuts in Chicago

“Fabulous Chix Sammiche!! More please...“

“Still the best I ever tasted. Krispy Kreme ain't got nothing on these doughnuts!“

“I am eating a strawberry donut I bought ten minutes ago as I write this! I've been dying to stop at D&D's forever, so I brought my son today to get some donuts. The donuts are all HUGE and beautiful. She gave us free samples of the donut holes to try which my son loved. She explained every flavor and how long they keep and that we can freeze them.

These are the best donuts I've ever had!!! And I've had donuts all over Chicago. They're unbelievably soft and delicate. There is real fruit in the icing. This strawberry donut tastes like a fresh strawberry. My son had a great time and she was so kind to him. We will be back!! I want to try the massive apple fritter. 😭❤️“

“Delicious donuts!! Great service. It is a rarity to have a peanut and tree nut free bakery…even more rare to taste so good!! We will definitely be back any chance we get. We highly recommend this sweet shop!!!“

“They NEVER disappoint! THE BEST donuts! We make a trip from the burbs whenever my kids are home from school. Always treat!“

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

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

“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.“

“The customer service was excellent! The donuts were the best thing I have put in my mouth in years and they melted like butter. Do yourself a favor and get you some!“

“When visiting a city, I like to find a local donut shop if possible. And this one is a gem. Just spectacular and flavorful donuts, and I especially loved the old fashioned. I even made a return visit and tried a raspberry jelly - excellent, but a little too sweet for me. I’d go back for those old fashioned any day though.“

“It's a good place to order donuts, breakfast sandwiches, and drinks for takeout. There are two tables for four people and three small tables for two people. WiFi signal is excellent. The Chocolate Pocket with Nutella donut (recommend by one of the staff members) and Vanilla Long John donuts were delicious and tasty. Staff was very knowledgeable about the donuts and provided good recommendations. Try to visit between 7am and 11am to avoid the crowd, especially on the weekends. I visited between 10am and 11am and I waited less than three minutes in line on a Saturday. I highly recommend this donut shop for take out if you visit or live in Streeterville neighborhood.“

“Donuts are fresh 10/10 recommend“

“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“

“The location of the shop is great, right in the middle of commercial shopping area.
Coffee was very good.
I recommend Lemonade. It was amazing.
Offers a huge and interesting variety of donuts.
Nice place to stop over for a refreshing coffee.“

“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. 😊 🙏“

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

“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 💯😘“

“Fresh cookies and donuts and coffee. Staff was very courteous and kind“

“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! ❤️“

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

“I went to drink happy thoughts on my last day in Chicago walking in I was immediately greeted by two very enthusiastic baristas who where nice to answer some questions I have about the menu and make some recommendation. I can’t talk this place up enough if you ever I. Chicago and you want a good breakfast spot this is the place!“

“Ribs very delicious also the soups the shakes everything they make is very delicious“

“I usually order a matcha iced latte with banana syrup. The woman with the pink hair makes my drinks and she’s very friendly. Today, there was a new face and I overheard that he’s worked there for months. What threw me off was how he kept wiping his nose and running his hands through his hair while taking orders, then making drinks and serving food. My coffee tasted warm (I ordered a banana iced latte with cf). So I ordered a matcha to make up for it, but the drink itself was overly sweet and way too milky compared to the past drinks I’ve ordered. Maybe it was just a bad day, but overall it’s been decent.“

“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.“

“Ribs very delicious also the soups the shakes everything they make is very delicious“

“coffee, awesome avocado egg. bagel sandwich“

“Super cute spot with friendly staff!

Love the variety here of mochi donuts, Korean corn dogs, and drinks! They have a rotating menu of specialty flavors every week for the donuts. I really enjoyed the yuzu refresher-esque drink I had! It wasn't too sweet,

They have some seating in the front and in the back. Love they also host events with various groups in the area.

Metered street parking is available and public trans is accessible.“

“Donuts are fresh 10/10 recommend“

“Donuts were great and good service“

“I’ve been here several times over the last few years and my family loves their donuts and especially the apple fritters. I wanted a slice of pizza and decided to try theirs . I wish I hadn’t. It seemed to be a cheap frozen box pizza only suitable for late night consumption by inebriated college students. Do go to Chicos and enjoy their donuts but skip the pizza. Your stomach will thank you.“

“love this place. So cute, great coffee, and the people are the best. I’ve had several great experiences, but today I was having an issue with my card (whilst on a #unplugged walk without my phone and with only one card!) and Sarah gave us the coffee anyway. u are the best girl. i will tip $10 next time. mwah“

“I had a brisket burrito and Mac & cheese . Very Delicious ! I will be back.“

“Best coffee in Chicago! So much flavor and great service!“

“Tried dat donut for the first time yesterday as i was going to my physical therepy appointment probably one of the freshest and delicious donuts i had chocolate frosted with sprinkles and it was so so good so fresh i wouldve gotten more . Right off the wellington brown/purple line i cant wait to try more next week . I love it and for 2 plus tax it is flavorful so glad i got to try will definetly be back“

“Everything was lovely! And the gentleman who registered me is so sweet🥹
Me and my friend brought the apple-sugar donuts they made, and they were so good!!! Delicious and definitely coming back!
The prices were reasonable, the atmosphere was warm and friendly, and overall a smooth experience for me and my friend!“

“Donuts are amazing! 💯 recommend“

“First timer. Over an hour drive from my house but we happen to be in the city so we had to stop. I bought a half dozen donuts and haven't stopped eating them yet. Every single one is more delicious than the last one. Would definitely recommend!“

“This is a place to get a high-quality donut and some simple food items. I had a couple of donuts, and my daughter had avocado toast to go. All the items were well prepared, although the toast took a while. The coffee was decent. The decor was fun, and the place was very neat and clean. We were staying around the corner, and this was a no-brainer place to get a better breakfast than the hotel was offering. I liked that they open early (like a bakery should).“

“Chill cafe—dim lighting, quiet space with not-too-loud music, some large tropical plants, and small-table seating and a couch—with fun espresso drinks, and tasty empanadas and bagel sandwiches. They also have donuts/muffins.

What to get: Bee Sting latte (chile-infused honey), empanadas, Notorious Bagel (choice of an everything or sesame bagel toasted with provolone and topped with pesto), bagel breakfast sandwich.

Was in the area and looking for a breakfast/coffee spot. The service was nice and friendly while we took some time to decide what we wanted. The coffee is solid; I got the Bee Sting latte which was sweeter than I prefer (I can't resist a sweet latte choice, yet at the same time I like them not so sweet 😂) and I don't think I could quite detect the chile infusion in the honey, but I enjoyed the latte; it was smooth and tasty. The empanada does take some time to prepare, so account for that. They had only the mac and cheese-chile crisp-bacon one when we were there. I'm a bit of a chile head so I'd like more chile crisp but it was tasty and great with the accompanying sauce. But the star was the Notorious Bagel: toasty, nutty, broiled-cheese goodness with savory pesto. The bagel breakfast sandwich was also good. Note the pesto runs a bit salty, but some days, that's what you want.

Will be back again to try more lattes and maybe some sweets, and to have another Notorious Bagel.“

“During a visit to Chicago, I stumbled on this place and now I dream about it. I stopped in 3 times, and everything was fresh and delicious and staff were helpful/friendly each time. Highly recommend the bagels (try the spinach artichoke cream cheese), BLT, and oatmeal cookie sandwich.“

“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.“

“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“

“Went to their friends' and family event to get a free drink, and the staff were friendly and engaging. The atmosphere was inviting, lively, and fun.“

“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 ?‍♀️“

“Junayed is honestly one of the best employees at Dunkin’! I’ve been coming here for years, and it’s always nice seeing a familiar and friendly face. He’s always so polite, welcoming, and attentive, and he knows exactly how I like my coffee.
I specifically look forward to coming in when Junayed is working because I know my coffee will be made just right every time. His consistency and great customer service really stand out. He’s definitely someone I trust, and he’s a big reason why I enjoy being a regular customer here! ☕😊“

“drinks are good, but at times not. depending how they make it. other than that. and the fact the kids sometimes take there time. give it 2 stars.“

“I love this dunkin donuts. Near my house. It's too relaxing. Sounds with iPod touch . Rock n roll“

“great ice coffee at dun“

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