I work for the Chicago Fire Dept and I would say I'm a self proclaimed doughnut expert. A few times, some of the guys from the fire house have brought in these doughnuts. This is the number one doughnut in Chicago and possibly the world. They should open a store downtown and charge $10 per doughnut. There desert sent from heaven and it's ok to eat it for breakfast. Thank you for bringing such happiness to the world Old Fashioned. read more

Best donuts in the city!!! Not the friendliest group of people. Not much else to say. I love seeing them make the donuts in the window. A long time neighborhood business. I hope the recipes get passed down so they can continue for years to come. read more

This place is outstanding!!! Omgoodness you can taste the love in the dough!!! Thanks y'all, for staying true to great flavors and affordable prices! read more

BEST Donuts on the south side of Chicago. I've been going here since the 70s. Have "introduced" some of my coworkers to Old Fashioned and they constantly request that I go back at least once a month. Can't find anything to compare, except the donuts and donut holes that my family would make (in our kitchen), once, sometimes twice, a month. We just didn't make the different varieties that Old Fashioned has. 5 stars rating is not enough!!!! read more

Good place to get breakfast food. Nice folks giving good service. Decent value. No complaints

Donuts are made fresh, best in the city for sure. Cash only, been going here since I was a kid

Oh my God it's a sin to eat here the donuts are sooooooo good amazing sinful. I was heartbroken by the riots that happened for someone to damage this iconic store it's been here forever. I know they gonna get back on their feet. God continue to bless this business. read more

Best donuts I ever had! The Texas is my all time favorite. I've been eating the Bg there so nice I was a kid. Now my kids eats here.

Best donuts ever. Breakfast sandwiches are on point as well. Been eating here for 50+ years nobody does it better. Along with great treats is pleasant service as well. A lot of love goes in and comes out of this business read more

Delicious!!!!! Old neighborhood staple that hasn't loss its touch over the years! Can't go wrong with any of the choices but always a favorite is the Glazed read more

I love old fashioned donuts! A must have if you're a tourist in Chicago. They're always fresh, a good vibe in the establishment and it's always a homey feel whenever I patronize this business. I definitely recommend them. read more

Food addiction is a very real thing. I woke up this morning fiending for Old Fashioned Donuts. The donuts here are just as addictive as heroin and well worth the one-hour drive from the suburbs. We tried the apple fritter, chocolate frosted cake donut, orange frosted cake donut and the glazed donut. I am a little embarrassed to admit that my "mmm!" exclamations while eating the fritter may have started to sound like moans. The chocolate donut really tasted like a slice of cake. I wanted to exclaim that the fritter and chocolate donut were better than sex. Well, at least better than bad or mediocre sex, okay? I wasn't as impressed with the glazed donut. The fritter and cake donuts are really the star of the show here. I've never had a donut with such a crunch to it on the outside! We also ordered a coffee & milk. I was a little taken aback when I was given a small carton of whole milk. I thought whole milk was for infants. I gasped when I saw the fat content on the milk package. Like it was going to make a difference after eating donuts for breakfast, right? One fritter, three donuts, a coffee and milk cost a little over $9. There are a lot of stools and small tables for seating, or you can take it to go. They do accept both credit cards and cash. That's not all folks. On top of the best breakfast ever, you can get a little bit of a show here. A man they called "the reverend," was a comic presence while waiting in line. The line was 5-6 people deep constantly. The rev puffed out his chest and bellowed his thoughts on demanding men and subservient women. I think he was joking...I think. Most of the customers in line either chuckled or rolled their eyes. A few times the employees behind the counter yelled at him to shut up. The employees are friendly and patient while waiting for customers to pick out their donuts. While eating, a female customer approached us and asked for money. I won't ignore panhandlers, so I said "I'm sorry. I don't have any cash on me." She lingered a few seconds more, but an employee working behind the counter noticed this and very loudly told the woman to get out and never do that again. I may be overreaching, but I felt just as safe coming to OFD in Roseland as I would feel walking down the Magnificent Mile or in downtown Naperville. Why? Oh, it's because I'm not afraid of black people and I wasn't going to hang out at the park after dark. I've been coming into contact with too many suburban folks who think the "south side" stops at Bridgeport and anything south of there is like walking through an open shooting range. A word to white people: don't be afraid of a place just because you will suddenly be the minority. By overcoming fear, you will have the world's most perfect donuts. read more

I love the stage of life that I am in, for real. I am a Plump Middle Aged White Lady (PMAWL for short) and it's fabulous. I am a threat to NO ONE. Runners do not fear me, construction workers ignore me and I remind everyone of some female relative. I literally can go from one end of the city to the other and everyone is nice to me. Everyone. Today was my first time in Roseland but you would have thought I was a regular at this donut shop. The clerk treated me like a queen and the people at the tables all invited me to sit with them. As they left they all said bye to me. It was the city of Chicago at its absolute finest. And where did all of this occur? In donut heaven on sugar cloud. (Cue the hymns.) I savored my raised glazed donut with the respect that it deserved. Damn that was one fine donut! I know you are thinking, didn't you just claim that last week oh PMAWL? Yes, I did, a gal can love two or three donut places, don't you love your parents and children? I also scammed a piece of my daughter's apple fritter. Mighty tasty but not the religious experience that was the glazed donut. And yes, it is a Thursday and we had an Adventure. Spring break! read more

I just returned home from a dinner where I gorged myself on ribs, smoked shrimp, fries, dumplings, links, and wrapped it up w/ some tres leches cake, oh - and some donuts from THE BEST PLACE ON EARTH. FINALLY got to try the apple fritter. Is it everything they said it would be. Hope and change and apples and butter, all mixed together. Shit makes me feel patriotic; YES! I AM PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN, we are the f*ckin' SMARTEST MOFOS THAT EVER LIVED b/c we can make food taste like this - what have you got?!?! [dead silence as rest of world recognizes it cannot hang] that's what i thought. respect! read more

So this morning I had a few errands to run and needed to rent my I-GO car sharing car to run them and thought this would be the perfect time to make a trip a bit further south than I usually go! This place was mentioned in a conversation with strangers on the Clark #22 bus heading down to Lincoln park a few weeks back. We were discussing the best of the best in the city. I wasn't for sure if I could trust these 20 somethings with my taste buds but after my trip this morning I take my trust and hand it to them. All of it, in bunches... OK maybe not all of it! Park my car on Michigan Ave, praying it wouldn't be broken into or worse as this is in the Roseland neighborhood but I didn't think it was anywhere near as bad as some of the hoods I have had to visit on the west side. Walk into this place which I wasn't sure if it was even in business as it looks like it could use a touch up of something! I knew what I was here for and went right up to the counter and asked for it! The lady behind the counter was extremely nice and asked me if i wanted my apple fritter with or without pecans. One with and one without was my choice. I told her about how I heard of the place and how far I came and she said "Oh, you cannot leave without having a free special donut on the house". She gave me a blueberry cake donut glazed. Now I love crispy creme and thought it was about as close as I could get to getting good old fashioned Donuts like I used to get at the fair! WRONG! This was an exact mach! Crispy and sweet on the outside and soft, melt in your mouth goodness on the inside! Brought my two fritters home and had the donut in the I-GO car on my way back (making sure not to drop any crumbs in the car!) When I got home I shared my w/ nuts fritter with my grandma as she being 92 years old would know old fashioned. She said this was the best she has had since she was at least 50! I may have to head south whenever I have a good donut craving and want to bring donuts to work! This is the best thing I have eaten so far this year! read more

This place is the real deal, yo. If you had done a Yelp search a few years ago for donut establishments, you'd be left with Dunkin Donuts and Old Fashioned Donuts. Now there are a bevy of options but I'm here to tell you that there is a reason that Old Fashioned Donuts is still going strong on the far southside after 40 years: their donuts are the bomb. The donuts are not "fancy". You will find no bacon, no ribbons of candied fruit peel or chocolate shavings. But you will find some damn good donuts and one very orgasmic apple fritter...which I'll get to in a moment. The glazed dodos are a thing of beauty, the orange cream is the stuff dreams(icles) are made of and the crullers? My gawd, the crullers. Sadly they were out of the chocolate frosted cake donuts. I thought my friend wasn't going to recover from this heartbreak until.... APPLE FRITTER! The apple fritter is as amazing as everyone says it is. It's as huge as everyone says it is. It is beyond words. It can only be described as follows: OH-MY-GAWD. Mmm... *chomp* MMMM ohmygod. ohmygod. "I'm so glad we got pecans on this." Mmmm. Oh my...mmmm. Old Fashioned Donuts is totally worth the almost hour drive from the Northside. It's a no frills place with some of the best donuts you'll have. The coffee ain't bad either. Don't be intimidated by the drive or the neighborhood. The counter gal was helpful and warmed up to us and was able to talk my friend down from the ledge upon learing that they were out of the choco donuts. You don't stay for the ambiance, you stay for the donuts...and that's how it should be, shouldn't it? read more

Donuts suck. To me anyway. Most of them taste like eating an aspartame flavoured sofa cushion. Dry, horrific, tasteless. So WHY, you ask, would I then make a 40 minute trek down to 111th street on one of my few weekdays off for a donut? Well, because if there is one thing I have learned, is to listen to mass amounts of 5 star Yelp reviews! First off, do not pay any attention to the slightly shady neighborhood, or the utilitarian-to-the-point-of-befuddlement shop interior. You are here for one reason and one reason only. These amazing, freak of nature, impractically delicious donuts. I bought a bowtie, which is like a long john with a knot in the middle of it. Airy and light, the body has a doughy flavour that just melts away to nothing in your mouth. The glaze is superbly sweet, but accompanies the donut perfectly. Normally, one donut is more than sufficient for me, but after this epiphany of sweet delight I had to have a second. The second was a glazed chocolate donut. My only complaint would be that there needed to be a stronger chocolate flavour. Otherwise, this one was excellent as well. A thick and cakey interior with a crisp exterior and more of that divine coating of sugary glaze. So yes. You need to come here. If you live 2 hours away, come here. It is 100% worth the drive. These are by far the best donuts in the city. A person who dislikes donuts is telling you this! Or should I say, a recently converted donut hater. :) read more

The apple fritter really is a lesson in perfection. If you said it was one of the best, or even the best donut in the country, I wouldn't argue with you at all. Let me just do my humble best to break down the recipe for you as best I can taste my way through it : It tastes like the basis is a slightly yeasty dough, heavily spiked with cinnamon but - and this part is very important - NOT a very sweet dough. It seems to be braided/lumped together somehow with both apples and some sort of appley syrupy stuff and then deep fried (maybe almost like a flash, super hot fry). Then coated in sugary stuff. The results are a true mix of perfect textures and tastes - super moist, slightly sticky, but not sweet dough in the middle, then pockets of oil inside of crunchy fried exterior sugar lumps and then swirled in it all is like, rivers of the syrup. Almost like one of those pull-apart pastries or something. It really feels almost unfair to just call it a donut. I've also had...a few more [ahem]....since I first reviewed them. Although the apple fritter is kind of intensely amazing, you really can't go wrong. Just be sure to get anything that's hot out of the oil - ohhh... And Lord help us (me) - they accept cards now... read more

My favorite I love the fresh pineapple love it go twice a month will recommend for the best of the best black owned to

This place is a little off of the beaten path (yes that says 11248 South Michigan), but the Apple Fritters are off the charts good. They are gooey, apply, and enormous. 2 of these bad boys can feed a family. Go early, bring a friend who can navigate, and be ready with your order. If you like frilly, pretty bakeries on beautifully manicured streets this place is not for you, but if you want the best donut on earth, take a walk on the wild side. read more

Two things you need to know right off the bat about Old Fashioned Donuts: 1. They are closed on Sundays. Yes, they observe the Sabbath, which while inconvenient for me personally still seems kind of cool. Think of it this way: the day of rest each week allows them to be calm, cool, and collected which translates to excellent doughnuts. 2. The apple fritter is no secret. It may be new to you, but there are a jillion southsiders who have been coming here for years, and who covet the incredible fritters. Save yourself from disappointment: CALL AHEAD and reserve a couple. If you do this, please do follow through and pick them up. I'd hate for them to start refusing to hold fritters because folks didn't actually come get them. Also, due to a high fat content, the fritters freeze beautifully. Wrap em well and they'll keep for a while. I have been known to break off chunks and eat them frozen, which is actually pretty refreshing. OK, so what else do you need to know? All the doughnuts are good, but the caramel is a standout. The chocolate glazed cake was a surprise winner, since usually those are the placeholders in the doughnut box, but here they really shine. The chocolate glaze is honest-to-goodness chocolate, and the doughnut itself is light and fluffy. Everything in the display case looks amazing, and tastes just as good, so bring plenty of cash (thing to know about Old Fashioned #3: cash only) and load up a box. Hey, if you're gonna drive all the way to Roseland from the north side like I do, you want to make it worth your while, right? read more

This donut shop has been in my community since I was a kid. Mr. B is the owner and still makes donuts. I love this place. The donuts are always fresh and good any day you go. read more

I told you my Spring Break was pretty cray cray, right? In fact, so raucous that it included an adventure on a Thursday! I know, I am still in disbelief! Excited about last week's donut success, we looked for another spot to deliver sugar bliss. Good news! We found it at Old Fashioned Donuts. I've never had an apple fritter and now I can never have them from anywhere else. It is the perfect combination of donut and apple pie drizzled with icing. Another perk is that it is also the size of a basketball, so it will keep you nourished for quite a few mornings. Pair it with an ice cold carton of milk and it makes for a great start to the day. Old Fashioned Donuts is totally worth the drive. Everyone was super friendly, the staff was very accommodating, and I enjoyed talking with the other patrons. Hooray for donuts! read more

Went early on a Saturday morning to try their mythical apple fritter. We noticed a large number of cars along Michigan. With the rest of the block dead at 8 am, we soon noticed that every one of these cars was parked for Old Fashioned Donuts. The front of the shop is fitted with large windows so patrons can view donut makers working tirelessly to supply the city with fresh donuts. It's the original Krispy Kreme. Of course we ordered an apple fritter (w/o nuts) and a few donuts to try (toasted coconut, strawberry glazed, and cake glazed). All of this for less than six dollars! I joked with my husband that we'd get one and a half cupcake on the northside for what we paid. The donuts were very good, but the apple fritter was the stand out. Hot out of the grease, it was very large and full of apple goodness. I highly recommend coming early to get them hot. read more

There are moments in life that we look back and realize that at that fixed point, something special happened - our universe expanded. The discovery of the New World. Human flight. Man stepping on the moon. Decoding the human genome. Lesser known, and wrongly so is the apple fritter at Old Fashioned Donuts. I don't know how it happens but the baker melds together apple pie, donuts, and the delectable syrupy sweet crunch of the Indian dessert jalebi (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jalebi). I foolishly bought one for myself, but this is too large for a sane human to consume by themselves. This is not only a pastry, it is a means for peace making and reconciliation and any and all celebration. The chocolate glazed cake donut was also very good with great chocolate taste and crispiness at the edges that paired well with the soft insides. But, it was no fritter. The sad postscript is that I live too far away from Old Fashioned to be able to go regularly. I got an apple fritter at Dunkin Donuts a few days after because I was craving one and promptly loathed myself for debasing myself. First world problems, am I right? If you live in Chicago, you really do owe it to yourself to try and make the trek down here! read more

So, I can't comment on the interior of this place. Can't even comment if it's a "friendly" establishment. Oh, but their apple fritters, OOOOOMMMMMGGGGGGG While sending fellow Yelper on a covert mission, which he gladly accepted (which was super nice!), I texted him the location in which the goods were to be dropped off. Time was crucial, as I had another "meeting" which started promptly at 1:55. Phone call made, met at the "secret spot" and the goods were delivered. Enter to my place of employment....OHHHHHHHHHHHH Miss B....you gonna share with me. No way dude. ALL MINE. SOOOOOOOOO delicious, sooooooooooo sweet, and so gonna eat the rest of this for dinner. I'd try to save it till tomorrow morning, but who am I kidding!? :-) THANKS MESUM! read more

The ladies that work there have a real bad attitude customer service is horrible cleanliness is questionable please don't ask for extra condiments they actually get mad at you for asking read more

Noting now that much of my planning for this trip was accomplished in a seven day window, the first of my many meals would be a donut showdown that fortuitously came together when a reader of my blog noted she would be in town for Spring Break that weekend and another local messaged me on lthforum suggesting that she too would be interested - the original plan was Do-Rite versus Doughnut Vault, but given my early morning arrival a third contender joined the group, the oft raved "Old Fashioned Donuts" in South Chicago - home to what many consider the best Apple Fritter in the city (and maybe anywhere.) With the sun just starting to rise in the east as I parked my car at the not-yet-engaged meters I walked into OFD to not surprisingly find two things - a line, and the smell of baked good - and as the only representative of my race in the building I admittedly got a few strange looks from the twenty or so folks there, one of whom was a pastor who gave me a big smile and asked me "first time here?" quickly followed by "You gotta get the Fritter" before shouting to the lady at the register "Get this man a hot fritter" when I returned the smile and said yes. Waiting patient in the line as the each patron collected his or her bag of, box of, or single donut before making my way to the register I decided that given the variety my best bet would be a half dozen and asking the fatigued and slightly surly lady behind the counter what she recommended I was given the aforementioned Apple Fritter and a Strawberry glazed which were both still hot and a Buttermilk, Plain Glazed, Caramel, Vanilla (dyed green for St. Patrick's Day,) and Double Chocolate - a total of $8.50 including a tip and 25 cents for a box - before making my way to the seating area for a taste before our meet-up. Noting now that the majority of these donuts would be tasted during the showdown, there was simply no way I was passing up a chance to check out the warm options and beginning first with the Strawberry, my childhood favorite from Dunkin, I can say without a doubt that Old Fashioned Donuts are best eaten warm as the yeasty dough was a veritable pillow of sweetness and butter in the fresh state but substantially less memorable at room temperature later on. Moving on to the glaze, both in the warm state and cooled down this was definitely old school frosting, the glazed crisp and sugary, the caramel thick and buttery, and the vanilla and strawberry both sugar-laden textbook examples of their respective flavors. With four yeasted donuts and the other two old-fashioned cake, one chocolate and the other buttermilk, I additionally found these dense selections to be textbook examples of their respective genre with a dense crumb and plenty of flavor. While not quite as sublime as the G.O.A.T. buttermilk from Doughnut Vault, a close second and leagues better than Do-Rite in the showdown. Moving next to the infamous Apple Fritter, quite literally the size of an adult human head and cool enough to hold yet still hot enough to scorch the roof of my mouth due to the molten cinnamon apple interior there really is not much to be said about it that has not already been said - it is sweet and crunchy on the outside, soft and dense on the inside, loaded with both cinnamon and apples, and enough to easily serve a group...or in our case to serve as the best part of a tasting including twenty other deep fried treats and still have enough for leftovers (and to share with a vagrant who clearly figured we had more donuts than was healthy for a trio.) read more

See all

Some of the best donuts I've come across, so far! Yes, it's a hole-in-the-wall little place. Yes, there are somewhat unhappy cashiers some days, and friendly, patient ones other days. And, yes it's in Roseland! They don't get any more fancy than Orange Cream icing, but they do what they do well. And, if you can catch the plain ol' glazed, yeast-raised donuts hot from the fryer...You. Will. Hurt. Yourself! The apple fritters are from Gawd, and should only be consumed in stages. Or shared with others... Let me stop now, or I will soon be making the trip back out to Roseland! read more

Man these are some good donuts. Just plain good ass donuts. Yeasty, not too sweet dough, fried until crispy on the outside and fluffy inside, glazed with sheer sugary glaze that isn't gluey - even the chocolate is perfectly sweet - not overly sweet - and they give you a nice thick sheet of the stuff - and you bite inot this soft, light, totally teeth singing into the squishy, sugary warm goodness. This is like how your gramma made donuts if you had one of those Little House on the Prairie grammas. I have not tried all the varieties, because they sell them as fast as they get them on the counters, but I have yet to be let down. The filling in the jellies are a smooth jam. As you walk up to the doors, you can see the donuts raising and frying through the windows. These are truly Old Fashioned raised donuts at their best. The only let down for me has been the fritters - now I know that is this joint's claim to fame, but they have been overly heavy and way too greasy for me plus each time I've gone for them they seem overcooked. I cant deny - they are loaded with big chunks of apple and it's nicely spiced. I may just not be hitting it right. Oh - the cake, only had them once and it was the next day - didnt blow my mind, but they were a day old. The Texas donuts - a giant raised donut that comes either glazed or chocolate is surprisingly good. i have an aversion to food that goes that one extra level - it never lives up to it's excess, but somehow this one does. The proportion of fluffy donutty greasy goodness is upped spreading out the glaze so it's even tastier for me. Place is ALWAYS busy, bustling with neighborhood dudes trying to sell you bootlegs and the random homeless dude getting shooed out by the girls behind the counter. Also, warms my cold heart to be in the neighborhood. It's nice to see neighborhood kids hanging out and families out doing some shopping at the local stores - it's like a real old fashioned downtown on a weekend. Don't be in a hurry, there is likely a bit of a line and they may be out of the donuts you want - but you can wait. Have cash. No CC's Street parking isn't bad. Metered. You can eat in there, but it's no-frills FOR SURE. Plus, the dudes selling designer perfume oils, their band's CD's and asking if you need a ride might make you think twice. I took my deep fried booty and got some snooty gourmet coffee at Star Lounge (another review) and came home and treated myself like a queen, yo. Take a trip to the southside and get in on some of this. omg. donut heaven. read more

Mistake #1: I wake up to the wife watching the Food Network. Mistake #2: Join her in watching Donut Paradise. Mistake #3: Post to Yelp and ask where I can get the best donuts in town. Mistake #4: Go to Old Fashioned Donuts and only get half a dozen. Wow. The reviews aren't wrong. We ended up getting a half dozen donuts and an apple fritter. I'm drooling just thinking about those donuts. We bought six and tried a bit of each one, they were all good but the cream of the crop were definitely the double chocolate, the old fashioned, (go figure) and the...Orange Donuts?! Yeah the orange one were just off the proverbial chain...or even hook. It tasted like a push-up pop donut or like my wife said...heaven. Hahahaha. Anyway, the location isn't much to look at, but looks can be deceiving. Just go. Go now. Have a donut or twelve, okay, that's enough for today, I'm going back into my donut induced coma now.....[oupuwavppwxc *that was my head slamming onto the keyboard btw* read more

This is a historical and great spot!! If you've never had a Texas donut from here, I feel super sorry for you! Get over there today!!

I will never, ever, be able to eat a mass produced Donut again without shedding a tear in remembrance of the day I had donuts from Old Fashioned. The drive is worth it. Skip the coffee and just order some cold milk to go with those bad boys. Service is very friendly as well. read more

This is possibly home of one of the best donuts Ive ever tasted...The old fashioned glazed was amazing. Im a huge krispy kreme fan, but I think Id rather take these over K.K's. I would literally drive from the far north side to get a dozen for the family....might make the trip again soon. read more

Seriously, the best doughnuts in Chicago, hands down!!! I remember traveling to this place on Saturday afternoons, for a fresh (hot) glazed. Nothing like it. And in my past life as a high school teacher, I would bring a couple of dozen into my first period class on Mondays. Needless to say, I didn't have many students cutting class. Truth be told, the trip was made for me, but I wasn't about to be a pig and eat in front of my students. I just made myself hungry. Can you guess what I'm having for a snack after lunch? read more

Old Fashioned holds its own against any bakery in the city. Criminally overlooked, and likely to stay forever in the shadow of the apple fritters, are the orange-glazed cake doughnuts. Still warm from the oven, golden-crisp on the outside, fluffy on the inside, draped with icing that tastes of fresh, sunshiney-sweet oranges. A flavor profile refined enough for the cupcake set, and in an oh-so exclusive location. The strawberry-glazed yeast doughnuts are very good as well, but the orange doughnuts will always be my favorite. Very friendly service, even first thing on a busy Saturday morning. read more

Yeah, the neighborhood is BAD. The fritters are AMAZING - you can taste the yeast risen dough, and the warm cinnamon, and ....drool.... Do not come for the ambiance. Come for your fritters, get an extra or two, and fall in love. read more

Am I from the south side? Check. Do I like donuts? Check. Do I like donuts from Old Fashioned Donuts? Hel! Mothaf*@@$! yeah! First off let me say the location of this place may have you looking sideways at first glance, but keep your eyes on the warm, sweet, finger-bitin' good prize! Located just below a square black and white sign you will find the door to Donut Dungeon, er, Heaven! These donuts are relatively inexpensive so indulge accordingly... Must haves: A plain glazed donut (personal favorite), a Texas-Style donut, a sugar jelly donut (personal favorite), a chocolate Long John and an Apple Fritter. Go early (like before 1pm) if you want a chance at tasting a fritter or Texas-Style donut; these babies go fast and early. All of the donuts are just rich, yummy sweet goodness that should not be, but is, allowed. The Texas donut is as big as my face! Yes my tiny face! The fritter ain't short stoppin' on size either, so work up a good appetite before or you will be munching all day. Just go! Go early, get a half-dozen of donuts and eat one in the car so you can replace it before you head back home! Cash only folks! read more

The BEST donuts ever! There I said it! Dunkin Donuts, Krispy Kreme, What???!!! No comparison to these donuts. I grew up eating these donuts as they were in the neighborhood. Such a treat. Family run business. I miss seeing some of the women in the family who worked there for years. The best luck you can have is getting their donuts when they are still warm. Mmmmm....so good, pure heaven. I am glad to be living back in my old neighborhood so I can have close access to these donuts. And, for an added treat, get one of their hot sandwiches. Their polishes are Delicious. Thank you for all the years you have provided such great food. You will always have my business! read more

This place was a staple of my childhood and an occasionally treat now. Hands down, the best donuts EVER! I challenge anyone to find a better donut anywhere. I stick to the glazed and chocolate frosted but the apple fritter is so delicious. I can taste it now. I'm surprised this place hasn't been on the food network yet. I have yet to taste a better donut and I doubt you will either. read more
