Reviews
I walked in for my birthday, having heard I could get a free box of doughnuts, but I hadn't set up rewards and therefore couldn't claim them. A bit disheartened, I ordered a box of doughnuts anyway. The worker Brian made sure to wish me a happy birthday and made my day feel special anyway! He had a lovely demeanor and told me about neighborhood deals. He explained how the assorted box worked and was very patient with me. Every doughnut was great. My favorite doughnut was the Lemon Pistachio. Wonderful cakey texture with a tasty, smooth glaze. What could've been a letdown ended up being a birthday treat. Thanks Brian (and Stan)!
I came in on a Monday morning after grabbing coffee elsewhere so I just wanted a donut. There was one or two people inside when I arrived and I ordered at the counter. I'm a huge Biscoff fan so when I saw that one in the display case I had to get it! It was good! Not the most amazing donut I've ever tasted but solid. The outside glaze was good and the inside had some Biscoff but not a ton of it. I had about one third of the donut when I arrived. I sat at one of a handful of inside tables and also used the restroom when I was there. The service was friendly and quick. I would visit again on another Chicago trip.
The refresher: the prickly pear flavor was on point. However, i did not know/was not told the base of it was lemonade (Not a lemonade fan). The barista also filled the drink 2 inches from the rim and i just asked for him to add more ice. Customer service: not very interactive or anything special, sub par from my usual experiences.
2024 update: Definitely still one of my top 5 favorite doughnuts spots in America. Always consistently great. Only issue is that they tend to run out of the best ones by mid to late morning so you have to go early. Chicagos Doughnut Valut and DoRite and Portland's Blue Star and Voodoo (also now in Chicago) are my other favorites for
Just the best way to enjoy a lazy Saturday morning! Selections amazing and will satisfy everyone in your party
