Ordered online and then ordered my drink in the store. This is a cute small cafe with the most delicious donuts i have ever tasted. The flavors are amazing and I love the creativity behind each donut. The texture and dough is perfect. I highly recommend trying this place out for breakfast. I am still craving their doughnuts!! I also ordered an Irish Cream drink which was delicious but a bit too sweet for me. The employees were extremely kind and i would definitely come here again when I visit.

I eat donuts everywhere I go. Pandemonium is by far the best donut I have ever had. Servers are always kind friendly and fast!

My husband visited Pandamonium early on a Saturday morning (neither of us had ever been). He ordered 4 different flavors ranging in price from $2.75-$3.25. He was impressed by the interior of the store and the staff were great. I dove into the donuts when I got home from work. He even picked me up an Original Glazed. Yay! The Chocolate Crumble was my favorite. These donuts taste very good, are unique, but pricey and obviously not great for your waistline when eaten regularly. :-P The donuts are large and super fresh. I prefer my donuts old school, so the fancy flavors at Pandamonium don't appeal to me personally. Worth the $ ? Sure. Regular go-to place for donuts? No. Recommend.

Tried a few!

The chocolate raspberry donut was to die for!! Also got the thin mint, birthday cake, and coco pebbles one... wish they had the fruity pebbles one though :( would come back again! It was awesome

Love these donuts! The truck can sell out fast but whenever I can get to them on time I can't help but to stop for one! I've tried almost all of the flavors now and I haven't found any I don't love

For everyone who complains about them running out of donuts before closing, understand that this is how places like this works. It's difficult to estimate how much they need for the day, and it takes time and effort to make these donuts FRESH. If you want to guarantee yourself donuts, get there earlier or else don't get mad if your choice of donut is out of stock. As for the donuts themselves, all I can say is wow. The dough is fluffy and perfectly made. I tried the lavender honey, which had an interesting taste. I think it's one of those where you either like it or you don't- I liked it. I also ordered the chocolate sprinkles, matcha green tea, and blueberry lemon- all delicious in it's own ways. Donuts do run a bit more pricey here (~$2.50) however, the quality is worth the extra dollar that would have been spent on a regular donut from other stores. These donuts aren't really meant for those free-donuts-in-the-break-room-at-the-office, unless you're just that nice. However, these are great for more of a celebratory event.

One of my favorites: chocolate peanut butter cup yeast doughnut- and two birthday cake flavored doughnuts (cake style)!

This is my favorite (and most frequented) food establishment in Champaign. They have incredible doughnuts with a plethora of flavors, and their yeast-style are the best I've ever had (which is saying something, as I'm quite the doughnut connoisseur!). Don't skip out on this place- you can also find their food truck either on campus, at the Urbana Farmer's Market (Saturdays from May to October), or in downtown Champaign. They sell out pretty quickly during the school year, but it is well worth waking up a little earlier to be able to start your day with these wonderful, deliciously soft pillows of happiness. They also serve up some great espresso drinks using House-made strips and Counter Culture coffee; I always get an Americano as they use Counter Culture's Hologram which pairs excellently with their tasty treats. Moral of the story: make the stop, go to Pandamonium- you won't be sorry! Favorites: Mocha (made with Counter Culture coffee glaze- my absolute favorite),Blueberry Lemon, Plain Glazed, Birthday Cake, Rainbow Sprinkles, Chocolate Crumble

Left (from top): lavender honey, cookies & cream, chocolate banana cake Right (from top): chocolate sprinkles, chocolate PB, caramel fritter

Best doughnuts in CU. They rival the best doughnut shops in Chicago and for very low prices. They will update their available doughnuts on Facebook and usually offer about 7-10 different flavors. Flavors will change constantly and are very unique. Get here early if possible!

New to the neighborhood, so I thought I'd check out the local donut shop! I love the logo and the atmosphere inside. It's very very cold inside and as far as I could tell, there wasn't guest WiFi. They had a limited donut selection - about 6 different donuts to choose from, but from what I understand that selection changes daily. I came in at noon on a Sunday and there was nobody inside! I thought it would be much busier. The worker was very friendly and welcoming. The price of the donuts was steep! Every donut ranges from $2.75-3.00+! That's super expensive for one donut. I got two donuts and two iced coffees. The iced coffees were over $3 as well. So far, not impressed. Hopefully it all tastes good! I got the raspberry almond donut and the sprinkled donut. The raspberry almond was very raspberry-y, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. But it did not cover up the awful taste of the donut. These donuts taste like what a fast food worker would smell like after a long shift. The sprinkled donut tasted like a pile of sugar - at least it didn't taste like grease! As for the iced coffee -- blech!! No matter how much cream and sugar you put into it, it will never taste good. Bitter, burnt, like fresh tar. Needless to say, this was a rough trip and I don't think I'll be back.

A cute cafe in the lobby of an apartment/hotel complex. The pastries all looked delicious and there…read morewere plenty of unique drink options. The service was quick and friendly, the barista described the options available and had good recommendations! Good study space with WiFi, bathrooms, and a water fountain around the corner. Just be prepared to wear a jacket on either end of the cafe near the doors, can get windy upon opening! Thai Tea Caramel Canelé {5/5}: The best canelé I've ever had (okay, I admit, I've only had maybe 6 in my life). Great caramel and good Thai tea flavor. The texture was AMAZING with a nice slight crisp and chewy outside and almost custard-like inside. I got 2 more before I left Green Onion Kouign-Amann {4/5}: A caramel shell outside of this very flakey pastry that I had plenty of green onions mixed within the dough. It was a great play on sweet and salty flavors with delicious flakey layers Jade Cloud {3/5}: Peach oolong tea with matcha cold foam. Just a personal preference thing, but the flavor combination of peach, oolong, and matcha was not my favorite. I can see how someone who likes this flavor profile would find this drink refreshing!

Stopped in this summer while visiting a friend. She's raved about Bakelab for ages, and I was…read moreexcited to try it. The pastry selection was amazing. We got a couple of croissants and a canele, and we each ordered an espresso drink. It was everything she promised - and more. The croissant was flaky and buttery. The canele had the signature caramelized exterior and soft inside. I intended to only have a bite and save the rest for later, but I couldn't resist finishing it. Would definitely come back on my next visit. In the meantime, I'll just have to ask my friend to bring pastries to me when she visits!
