You know it's a good donut shop when they have a sign that says that they will close once they run out of donuts! That means everything is made fresh every day and that people are buying them and selling out! When I travel for work, I tend to scout the nearest donut shop and pick some up for clients I work with. This one popped up and I was so glad I "dropped" by. I loved that there was such a huge selection and i hated that I couldn't get them all! Came out with a couple of delicious donuts and the clients are still raving about them. I managed to nab the red velvet and that was amazing! Bookmarked again next time I'm in town and need some crowd pleasers! read more

This time I actually visited the shop and grabbed a dozen. Absolutely my favorite donuts. We got there at noon and not that many left. They even had a sign that said "we close when we sell out of donuts". Therefore there's no guarantee they will stay open until 1:30-2pm daily. My point is...get there early for the donuts. read more

This place always amazes me... I had to grab son treats for a work meeting and decided to grab a few dozen donuts from here. Service is always great and the only problem I have is deciding which one I want.. I want them all, the apple fritter is by far a favorite. The Nutella one is a favorite as wells. Ok ok , they are all a favorite!! The best part of these donuts is the fluff factor, yup fluff factor, light airy creations of pastry goodness!!! Everyone at work was amazed! read more

Every donut I eat instantly gets compared to Donut Drop. I never had a love for donuts until my life changed a number of years ago, with my first visit to this hidden gem. It doesn't matter what flavor you're looking for, you literally can't make a wrong choice when choosing Donut Drop. Some of my favorites include the Red Velvet and the extra special Cronut! read more

Donut Drop - Donuts Near Me - Schaumburg, Illinois

Best kept secret donut shop in the suburbs! Their chocolate glazed cake donut, sour cream glazed donut, and glazed yeast donuts are amazing. They sell out fast if you don't come early enough on the weekends. I'm originally Canadian and miss Tim Hortons donuts. These are just as delicious and baked fresh daily. No way you can go back to Dunkin after trying one Donut drop donut! read more

Donut Drop - Best donuts in Chicago hands down! - Donuts Near Me - Schaumburg, Illinois

Donut Drop is a hidden gem tucked away in an old strip mall along Algonquin Rd. It's a family owned business that churns out super quality donuts at honestly a really reasonable price. I usually just place a pre-order the day before, and it's always a quick and easy process to pick up the next day. It's best to order ahead or go early because it's slim pickins by 10am. They have a lot of different varieties of donuts, and it could be hard to choose which ones to get. While a lot of their yeast donuts look pretty with the different toppings and icings, I personally think their best donuts are the plain glazed cake donuts. At first I gravitated toward unique flavors like mud pie, Nutella smores, fruity pebbles, maple bacon, etc., but I thought their yeast donuts were just ok. The real sleepers are the glazed cake varieties. They may look ordinary, but the glazed cake donuts have that perfectly light crisp on the outside and just a moist, dense, crumbly texture inside. The richness and balanced sweetness of the donut are absolutely perfect. I would have no problem getting and entire dozen of just glazed buttermilk and glazed old fashioned donuts. Those two are hands down my favorite donuts at Donut Drop. Somehow they don't dry out even by the 2nd or 3rd day, and maintain that amazing flavor. Outside of those two, one of the main reasons Donut Drop even got on my radar was because they are one of the few places that offer Ube donuts. A lot of times Ube flavored things look great from that deep purple color, but they sometimes don't actually pack that Ube flavored punch that I'm looking for. After taking my first bite of the Ube donuts at Donut Drop, I paused in disbelief because they totally nailed the flavor. It had a more intense Ube flavor than Gurnee Donuts and actually maintained that flavor over a few days. The Ube donuts are considered a specialty donut and you have to order a dozen at a time if you're trying to make a pre-order in the off-season. You can't just order a single Ube donut along with a regular dozen (apparently you can in the summer though). Otherwise, you can take your chances and hope they have a few extras just sitting on the racks and just order when you get there. They have glazed, toasted coconut, and ice variations. Surprisingly the regular glazed Ube is my favorite of the three because it has that pure unfiltered ube flavor with no distractions. Overall, Donut drop is definitely worth the trip, and I actually like it better than some of the more popular spots like Stan's. When it comes to Ube donuts, they're far superior than Gurnee Donuts and way closer too. read more

Donut Drop - Raspberry jelly glazed, glazed twist, blueberry, cookie crumble, vanilla and chocolate bar, cinnamon twist, Apple fritter - Donuts Near Me - Schaumburg, Illinois

Soft, fresh, airy, and light. This is the best way to describe the delectable donuts from Donut Drop. It is located in a quite unassuming area, but don't overlook this shop. It makes some of the best donuts around! We got a dozen donuts so we could sample a lot of their different flavors. When we arrived on Saturday morning, the donuts were pretty much wiped out. That's how you know this place is good. We were able to snag apple cider, gingerbread (seasonal?), original glazed, red velvet, lemon, mud pie (salty and sweet), boston creme, coconut, fruity pebbles, maple bacon, and smores nutella. Definitely recommend the smores nutella as it was easily the best bite of the day. Torched marshmallow was pooled on top of a nutella filled donut. The torched marshmallow really added a nice smoky flavor to the donut that I thoroughly enjoyed. These donuts are extremely soft and fluffy. They are light to eat and not too sweet. The dough itself is nice and buttery, which gave it a different taste and its soft texture. I would highly recommend checking this place out if you want quality donuts for a low price. I was told that the owners start making and rolling the dough at 2 AM to make their donuts the way they are. That is commitment and I am happy to support this local business! read more

Their donuts are so damn good! I tried several of them, can't even tell you my favorite one. The cereal donut is pretty yummy tho. The only downside is that they close super early. read more

We went a little late (they open from 6am to noon and we went at 11am) so they had sold out from many of their flavors BUT some of my favorite flavors were still available and SO good!! We ordered the Croissant stuffed with Cream Cheese Icing, Strawberry Sprinkles, Chocolate Sprinkles, Lemon, Old Fashioned Blueberry Cake (2), Old Fashioned Red Velvet and Donut stuffed Banana Pudding. They were all good but my favorites were the Blueberry cake, Red Velvet and the Croissant. I would definitely recommend you go early or at least call and book/order your donuts beforehand. You will not be disappointed! read more

Best donuts, I'm always buying dozens for my son's baseball games and family parties and they're all gone within the hour. This place opens early and closes pretty early so you have to get in there in time. read more

Ordered donuts ahead of time. They were fresh and ready to go! Such an amazing variety of flavors...very hard to pick one favorite, but I'm partial to the Apple fritter. So sweet and delicate with a delicious glaze. The traditional go plate frosted cake was also delicious. Daughter adored the s'mores donut! We loved every bite! We will definitely be back! read more

Unfortunately, as others have mentioned -- the donuts aren't labeled so it is a little difficult to provide captions after the fact. The good news it that every donut I've tried is good, so you're really not taking much of a risk with anything you try. I like how everything here is kept simple -- just clear divisions between cake donuts and yeast donuts. Each with a clear theme and great textures that match their respective categories. The donuts are a bit on the pricier side (in-line with Spunky Dunkers), but the quality justifies a slightly higher price (if you look at the satisfaction value per dollar, this is in fact cheaper than some other chain donut shops). Other than no labeling, the only other major flaw is that there is some inconsistency in the size and sometimes shape of each donut. But both of these issues are not big enough to detract from the fact that they make great donuts here. Definitely give this place a visit if you're around the area (they're only open 8 am - 2 pm on weekends and only till 4 pm on weekdays so you may have to wake up a little early one of these mornings). You'll definitely taste the freshness and extra care put into these smaller batches of donuts. read more

Donut drop is pretty snazzy! I swear I posted a review for this place but it apparently has now disappeared. Donut drop is a tiny little bakery that accordingly has a tiny selection. I mean this place is not altogether that much bigger (front end) than someone's living room. Everyone is super nice and this place is a great pickup for donuts for the day, but I can't imagine that end of day you're going to get the best donuts. It's like working at a bagel shop - all the good stuff is in the morning, not the afternoon. Fritter here may not be the *best* fritter in the world, but it's pretty good and enormous. I've seen big fritters, but this was really big. Overall: great donut shop to pick up a dozen before work, some non-standard flavors make that a big plus - I hate the "chocolate or coconut or plain" options that you'd get a dunkin donuts. Thankfully, there is a bit more variety (and quality) here. read more

I am truly surprised at some of these reviews. Listen, these are hands down the best raised donuts around. If you don't like raised donuts go to Spunky Dunkers. I dislike SD. We go out of our way for these donuts. Yes they sell out fast, because THEY ARE GOOD. Get there early! If they are closed the sold out. This place is clean, friendly, and amazing. I've been going since they opened and the owners are sweet and I love seeing them. I'm actually sad when I don't see the owners! Don't listen to the negative reviews. Go early for the bigger selection and you'll be just fine. read more

Donut Drop - Donuts Near Me - Schaumburg, Illinois

I am a big fan of freshly made Donuts. I remember back in the day watching the commercial of the man saying 'time to make the donuts.' Nowadays we see donuts delivered as a frozen product which is then iced at the location. How is that quality and fresh? That is why I enjoy this Donut Drop. What you see is what they have. So if there is something you like, I would suggest get there early, otherwise it's slim pick'ns near closing time (That's a Good Thing). My favorite is the Strawberry glaze donut. The donut is light and fluffy with the glaze not too overly sweet. It's a nice small quaint place that has several tables for you to enjoy your donut and your choice of beverage. To help keep you entertained, they also offer board games. Stop by this place and I promise you, you won't regret it. Just make sure you get there early. read more

My family absolutely loves Donut Drop! They hands down, have the best donuts. Some of our family favorites are the Raspberry Jelly, Apple Fritter, Buttercream, Chocolate Cake & Fruity Pebbles. We have ordered Donut Cakes & Mochi Donuts as well... also amazing! This is a fabulous family owned business with a friendly & really nice staff. Order ahead, go early or run the risk of not getting the donut you have been craving... they are so delicious that they do sell out! I've been stressed in line before when I saw only one buttercream left and there were people ahead of me. I was so happy when they shockingly didn't order it & I got it! I also highly recommend the coffee and the cold brew. The cold brew is so good & they serve it with the cute little ice cubes. Check them out & find your new favorite donut! read more

Being a big donut connoisseur, this is one of my favorite donut places out of all places including in the city. They carry different flavors such as Ube, cookie crumbs to red velvet. They're made fresh daily and are in limited batches, so be sure to come early unless you preorder. Also their ice lattes are underrated, be sure to get an caramel iced latte with your donut. You'll thank me later. read more

Great donuts! I'm not much of a donut expert but the lemon ring I had was delicious. I met one of the owners and she was very kind and provided great service. If you're looking for a great local donut shop - this is it! read more

If you are looking for the best damn donuts you've ever had, look no further. For real, I stop here almost weekly to bring these to work or to friends. They old fashion is melt in your mouth delicious but I've also never had a bad donut here! Plus, it's cheaper than Dunkin and about 10,000 times better. Other crowd favorites are the blue berry cake, fruity pebbles, lemon, double chocolate, raspberry filled, toasted coconut and double chocolate. (I can list the entire menu if you want, and you would love every one of them!) TL;DR: best freaking donuts ever. read more

Get em while they are fresh. Once they are out they are gone. Had a great flavor and texture without being overly sweet. PS. Don't hang out it's freezing in this place! read more

Handcrafted to perfection. These donuts are freshly made everyday and the place closes when they are sold out. Luckily we haven't encountered that yet but we haven't been there early enough to have the full selection to pick from either. But what we did have, did not disappoint. - chocolate donut with sprinkles - glazed old-fashioned - sugar raised jelly We'll be working hard trying to come back early to see what we missed out on!!! read more

Best donuts in the Northwest suburbs. Better get there early as they are sold out by 11am on the weekends. Only place I have ever seen turn an Apple fritter into a normal donut size which is unbelievable and counted towards a regular dozen. Simply the best! read more

Im a donut snob, and pretty much hate all donuts. I was blown away today. This donut shop was highly recommend to me by a fellow Yelper (thanks Justine!). I drive past Donut Drop everyday as I leave Harper College and head to work, today was the day I decided to give Donut Drop a shot. When I walked in today at 9:05am it was totally dead, aside from the lady working I was the only one in the shop. I was kind of surprised no one was in shopping for donuts early in the morning. I explained to the lady working there that it was my first time and I wanted a dozen donuts. She kindly made suggestions and helped me make difficult decisions. Everyone at the office loved my donuts, it was a hit, including myself. I loved the chocolate donut I had. It was thick, cake-like and chocolaty. I will return for more office treats! Loved this hidden suburban gem. I also noticed that they had a couple breakfast sandwiches and bagels, Im a sucker for bagels, so I'll for sure try that next time. read more

We stopped in twice as to try different donuts in the selection lineup they have. It's a nice little shop and the owners are very friendly. The raised donuts are very good. The filled donuts we had on both occasions didn't have much filling. While the fillings, cream and custard are delicious, they need to increase the filling as they are charging $1.50 per donut and not worth it. The cake donuts need improvement as they are too small and the flavoring of the blueberry through the donut tasted like the filling used for the filled donuts leaving them a little gummy. Glaze and chocolate topping are really good and applied nicely. The toasted coconut donut at other shops have the coconut encompass the entire donut. At this shop it's only on the top. Old fashioned glazed donuts were ok but were a little dry. Kudos as none of the donuts were oily or left any greasy residue in the box. This is a nice shop and with improvements and tweaks could be a real winner! read more
