    GREAT experience! The service was excellent, the food was delicious, and ambiance was small and pleasant. We went here while visiting my son who graduated from the Navy. It was my birthday and we wanted something other than a cake. We never been to a Duck Donuts so we decided to try it. We are so glad that we did. The donuts are made fresh and you can really tell the difference. They were beautiful and delicious. I would come back if I were visiting Illinois, but since we have one here in Las Vegas, I guess I will check this one out and see how it measures up. I am glad I had an opportunity to visit this one in Illinois. If you get a chance, you should check it out TODAY!

    I came to visit my son for his boot camp graduation, and he told me Duck Donuts was the best spot around--his RDCs had brought him some, and he couldn't stop talking about them. Naturally, we had to stop at a location on our way into Chicago, and I'm so glad we did! This is what I call a real donut experience. The batter is made fresh, the donuts come out hot, and then they're decorated and frosted to order right in front of you. These aren't grab-and-go donuts you eat in the car, you sit down and enjoy them, maybe even with a knife and fork. The shop had a nice outside deck and even a window where you can watch the donuts being made. There were so many fun flavor combinations, and everything we tried was phenomenal. The price was right on point, the service was fast, and the workers were very friendly, which made the whole visit even better. I later looked them up and saw they have a few locations in California, and I can't wait to visit those, too. Thank you, Duck Donuts, for such a sweet surprise!

    Not a great first impression to be honest. Stopped in while I was in the area to check out this little shop. It's a nice little stop with inside seating and outside seating. They also have a window so you can watch how the doughnuts are made from start to finish. It's pretty fun for the littles. I asked the young lady who took my order what she recommended, and she suggested the Maple Bacon or the Sunrise. I did decide to order the Maple Bacon, and the other I ordered was on the Mother's Day specials and named Chocolate Glitz. They were served hot, and I'm certain they are probably delicious warm. I was on my way to an event and did not take the opportunity to try them until I got home. At which time everyone said they weren't anything too special. I believe they were having some issue as they were tossing a handful of more dough rings. Also, when I asked, after waiting some time, if they were working on my I was told "No, we're working on an Uber order." Hmmmmm ..... not the best answer for the wait time frame I had there. It took about 15 minutes. I wish my photos were more clear, but it works. Also, there is certainly a need to update those flier menus as that isn't a great look. I ran to the washroom and heard one of the girls say "there she is"... lol. Not sure what that was about. I eventually got my donuts and made it to the event on time. So all is well. Would I try again at a later time. Probably. I would like to know how they taste fresh and warm.

    Having lived out east and had local Duck Donuts close by, there was a void in my life after moving back here....at least that's what I thought, when thinking about donuts. Loved these donuts and whenever in the Outer Banks of North Carolina, woukd stop in the town of Duck for these donuts. A friend told me that there were shops out here and even one in Libertyville! I've been saved!!! Life is great again! These are life changing donuts!!

    Donut Ice Cream Sandwich $5

    A-OK. TLDR version: donuts are over fried for my liking. Tried a donut ice cream sandwich and cookies 'n cream donut sundae, $5 each. Cool that you can watch the donuts being fried to order in the window. It's all the same batter base, and the distinction between offerings is on the frosting and toppings.

    Visiting from California. Our group of 7 really wanted to try this place. Visited about 10:30am on a Saturday. Very neat to watch order made fresh! Donuts were warm & yummy! Great job! Service was quick & very patient with our decision making. :) Everyone was happy!

    I first tried Duck Donuts at Mall of America so I was very excited when I came across this one. It smells so good inside! They have a pet friendly outdoor patio. I ordered a half dozen box which cost about $15. There is a window where you can watch the donuts being cooked, and when the toppings are added. The donuts are delightful!

    What the Duck Donuts are made hot and fresh to order with many toppings and flavors. A gimmick, sure, but you can order just one donut if you want, and they'll add your topping. There's something about a hot, just fried donut that is unbeatable in its simplicity and taste that is just as good as one of the fancy donuts. I just wanted a cinnamon sugar donut, basic I know, and it went great with my coffee. You can also order an ice cream donut, coffee drinks and shakes. This is fun to stop in for a treat, or watch your donuts being made through the window.

    S'mores and coffee cake donuts

    Finally got to try duck donuts!! I was excited about it when it opened, and never got a chance to check it out. There are a variety of flavors to choose, all made fresh. I like that you have the option of ordering however many you like. My sister and I placed our order for a s'mores donut and a coffee cake donut and they came out fresh about 5 minutes later. My s'mores donut was good, but too sweet for my liking. I was happy to try this, but it not something I'd be interested in coming back to. It is not my favorite donut ever, but fun to try.

    Upon walking in I noticed how dirty this location was, it was very early in the morning so I fell like it should be clean. The staff seemed annoyed to be working and were not friendly. I wasn't aware prior to going in the donuts were made to order so it a long time to get my donuts. The bottom of the box was dirty. There was frosting on my car seats. Tried brushing it off but of course it could not be that easy. Because they made the donuts in the box the frosting melts and makes the donuts stick to the box making it difficult to pull them off the box and they end up breaking. On the plus side they tasted alright and looked ok This place is NOT worth it!

    I always bring treats for the office on Fridays. I was up by Duck Donuts Thursday afternoon and decided to give them a try. I placed an online order. The donuts were freshly made when I got there. Everyone at work loved them. Definitely worth the ride. #iraeats #iraeats1

    I finally had the chance to try Duck Donuts after hearing about them for a few months. I chose to do an online order, as I am ALL about convenience, and I appreciated the fact that there are so many customizable options and the online ordering process is a breeze!! I chose my own flavors, and ordered 2 dozen donuts for an event. Everyone loved the donuts and raved about the unique combos. Reasonably priced as well. DD's has a parking lot so no need to search for nearby parking, which we ALL know can be a headache on the weekends in downtown Libertyville. They also have a patio for warmer months, which I fully intend on taking advantage of soon!

    I came here a few days ago after their usual morning rush. I was in the mood for donuts and didn't…read morewant the usual generic Dunkin or Krispy Kreme and saw that I was closest to this spot, so I was like, why not? It's located in a tiny row of storefronts with a single strip of shared parking spaces. Inside, it felt warm and inviting with a few seats by the window. The displays with donuts were mostly empty except with a select few still left over. It's cool that they offer both yeast and cake donuts to choose from. I ended up getting a half dozen with red velvet frosted, cherry glazed, regular glazed, lemon filled jelly donut, and two more that I can't recall. And I got this interesting chocolate milk that had a good amount of protein in it too. Donuts and milk! The donuts tasted pretty good. A good combination of airiness and fluffy and seemed to be fully cooked through. That lemon filled jelly donut was pretty hefty too; definitely one of the heaviest donuts I've ever had...lol As I was checking out, the lady behind the counter informed me this particular store has been going strong for more than 40 years, which is damn impressive!! I'll definitely be coming back here for more delicious donuts!

    Yes, yes, yes!…read more Moved back to AZ in 2020, this place is still the benchmark for the Apple Fritter. There is NOTHING like it in the USA.

The friendly guy at the counter said that they are changing their name as per the new storefront sign. This is a casual Mexican bakery with great prices. Loved all food items that I chose & I didn't chose his recommendations so those might even be better. He recommended items with ginger, coconut & traditional delights. We also did not warm up the pastries so that is how delicious the bakery items were Everything was so fresh tasting & hit the spot. I appreciate that things were not overly sweet. Recommended items: -Pineapple empanadas. -This square custard tart with real blueberries in it. -Strawberry churros. I look forward to hikes that will lead me back down this way & trying more yummy items.

    I feel like it was hard to review this place. I had read so many great reviews that maybe I went in…read morewith too high of expectations. To start, there were way more bakery items here than I expected! It was pretty overwhelming, making it difficult to decide what to get (and to figure out what is good). I picked up a variety of different treats: tres leches cake, flan, churros, concha bread, and rice pudding empanada. The results were mixed. As everyone has said, the tres leches cake is superb and is probably the highlight of what they make at this bakery. The other standout was the rice pudding empanada. There are no signs that say what the different pastries are so we picked it out and took a chance. It ended up being a pleasant surprise. Just perfectly sweet. But, it would be nice if they could put up signs so customers can decide what they want without having to ask staff. The churros were pretty hard and stale by the time we got them in the middle of the day. Perhaps they taste better when they are fresh. Otherwise, would not recommend. The concha bread was huge and super soft! But overall, the flavor was light and was not as sweet as I would have liked. The flan I did not mind, but my family thought it was way too firm. Overall, this bakery was too far out of my way to come back to. There were some standout items, but there were also a lot of other items that were pretty lackluster.
