I don’t even know what to say, I’ve been dealing with medical problems and got very sad news today. I decided I really wanted some donuts and to sit at home crying, curl up in a blanket watching movies, and feeling bad for myself. I showed up and they only had a couple options, which was fine because the double chocolate ones are my favorite. He gave us extra donuts on top of what we ordered, and free drinks. I don’t even think we were charged full price. I couldn’t help but to start crying, it felt like life had been going all sorts of wrong and who knew a couple donuts and some milk would make a difference. I know it’s a small act but he made our day just that much better and that’s all we needed. Thank you ❤️
(Also these are actually my favorite cake donuts I’ve ever had, I try not to avoid gluten at all cost but cave during trying times, the best are the double chocolate and jelly filled SOOO GOOOOD!)

I had eight donuts which came to a total price of $15. Very expensive for nasty dry ass donuts. I went because donut drive in was closed but I know now to be patient and wait for the real donut makers to open! Their display was broken . Very ratchet. I won’t be back!

I love the consistency of the yeast donuts. Very doughy and soft! My fav donut flavor is boston cream, and these were great! I especially appreciate that they had a lot of custard filling (my usual complaint about BCs at other shops is not enough custard filling!) I don’t usually like cake donuts, but I LOVED their gooey butter cake.

The quality in donuts has diminished since the shop was purchased by Strange Donuts. They are selling day-old donuts (dry and crusty glazed) at 6am already. Do the bakers not bake them morning of? They also don’t make the same selection daily, so it’s a hit-or-miss on days.

Doesn't take credit cards... cash or Venmo only. Great tasting donuts since 1904 when the Olympics were in St. Louis.

Cute little hidden gem with delicious donuts. We passed it on our way to the Botanical Gardens and the gentleman working was so sweet and patient with my kids. Super nice and the donuts were good. Was surprised at how cheap they were! Would recommend.

Earlier in the year, we were in St Louis for the Oddities and Curiosities. We love a good donut joint. So, with a little help from google, we came across World's Fair Donuts.
The donuts were absolutely delicious even throughout the day. They were still soft and still just as good as they were when we got them. We ordered 1 maple donuts, and the man gave us a free one because couples were known to fight over them. He was very professional and kind throughout the whole interaction. We love finding gems like these when out on the road. We hope to visit again!
There is some parking but not a lot that I can remember.

The chocolate vanilla frosted donut is the bomb! Quite possibly the best chocolate donut I've ever had and I've had a donut or two over the years.

Every time I go in there I always walk away happy. The people that behind the counter are very knowledgeable and very friendly and they really love what they do.. you can tell that when you talk to them and when you eat the food. A great donut place!

Pretty good donuts. The late night food is good too. 4 bucks for a donut or a taco(at night) is outrageous though. Yall are gouging.

Yum, yum, yummy! We always try to get donuts here when we are in town. Cake are the best but they have yeast donuts too.
Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options too!
