Lots of fun flavors to choose from and the staff was nice! My wife and I got a double chocolate old fashioned, a cinnamon sugar cake, a glazed pistachio and a fluff filled Bismarck. The frostings, icings and fillings were great, but I wasn’t really thrilled about the pastry itself on the two yeast donuts (pistachio and Bismarck). It was a little tougher and denser than I would have liked/expected, and that’s the reason for only giving four stars. It is a bit expensive too, but we would both come back again.
Delicious donuts alert!! This is a nice little gem right next to the bus station or better said behind it. They have seating inside. Donuts are Delicious. Staff was super nice and kind. We had a great time here!
We heard this was the place to go when in Chicago and my gosh is that right! Our experience at the Roosevelt location was beyond exceptional! The staff honestly made our “just grabbing a donut” outing to a “Wow!!! Chicago is amazing!!” Considering it was April fools, the staff had an awesome “trick” up their sleeves and my husband fell for it - I wish I grabbed his name before leaving, but the employee there just made our experience so much more amazing! This will be the first place we visit when we come back!!! Thank you guys!
Cute little donut and coffee joint, perfect for cold weather! Good vibes and nice environment. Lots of donuts to choose from. There are also hot breakfast sandwich options. Coffee is also great and the folks here are friendly! There are a few tables for indoor seating!
We stopped here before heading out of town. The donuts were great and they have a fairly large selection, including a donut of the week. The coffee was good. The best part of the whole experience was the friendliness of the staff. The level of service at this location was beyond expectation. Overall, I would come back here for a donut and coffee when I am in the area again. Be ready for beggars waiting for you when you leave as the train station is right to this location.
A great place for a quick sweet treat and fresh cup of coffee! They've got a large selection of both classic and specialty cakes. My husband and I grabbed four - the Peanut Butter Pocket, Blueberry Cream Cheese Pocket, Buttercream Bismark and Birthday Cake Donut.The "pockets" are basically filled donuts. I didn't think my Blueberry Cream Cheese Pocket was all to great. The cream cheese filling was almost tasteless and the only part that was blueberry was the miniscule dollop of over-sweetened jam place on the top. The glaze around it was a great inclusion but super duper messy. A ton flaked off which eat bite. Neither of us were impressed by the Peanut Butter Pocket. The PB filling was insanely dry.On the flip side, the other two were delish. The Buttercream Bismark filling was phenomenal. It was super thick and there was a generous amount. It paired well with the chocolate frosting. The real winner was the Birthday Cake Donut. The vanilla glaze was almost like candy. It smooth, creamy and blended deliciously with the moist, vanilla cake. Sometimes, simple is better. :)Prices are a tad high, too, IMO. All four donuts and a small house coffee was $23.50. The donuts are big, though, so it's slightly justified. But I've had better donuts for far less in Chicago. Not sure if I will be back but I'm glad I have Stan's a shot.
Made 3 visits in the last week. Let me first say the staff is very nice (although understaffed) The donuts are not even close to fresh. I was there at 11, 1 and 9am. Dried out. Ordered boston cream, no cream, ordered long john a trace of cream, The place is also a little dirty (Roosevelt) Oh, while not good quality very overpriced!!!
I love this location because the staff is amazing.I love Stan Donuts because they have vegan donuts that are de lic ious ?.
The cashier very friendly and polite. My barista was awesome as well when I told him I was taking my Dad hot chocolate for work he went to get a mug for my father he said to make my Dads day better and it sure made our day better. Nice to see excellent costumer service !!!
One of the best donuts in the city. I love their specialty stuff, especially the Lemon curd Bismarck. Really really unhealthy for you and you can feel your arteries clogging as you are eating them. But that's exactly what I am looking for. I haven't had their milkshakes yet, but they look tempting too.Most importantly, I am very happy that they've made their donuts vegetarian friendly by removing lard from their recipes. I know that must not have been a easy decision, but I am glad they did. Thumbs up!!
