    Slow Rise just recently opened a brick & mortar in Overland Park and I am thrilled! As someone who used to occasionally travel to Lawrence, KS to grab some doughnuts from the farmer's market, it is so exciting for them to have their own shop! Right now, they are only open on Saturday mornings. They open at 9am but you will want to get there much earlier to hop in line so you can grab some doughnuts. They offer both sweet and savory filled sourdough doughnuts and their offerings change weekly so check out their social media a day or two before to see their menu! If Pandan Coconut or Everything Bagel are on the list, make sure to snag those! Due to demand, they do have a 12 doughnut limit. Their store has seating inside, coffee on tap, Slow Rise swag you can purchase, and such a friendly, welcoming staff. These doughnuts are worth the wait!

    Absolutely the best donuts. They aren't as sweet as typical donuts. So good and unique flavors. Best time to go is Friday mornings.

    I just HAVE to go and wait in that 40 minute line every time I'm in town! If you're obsessed with crumbl cookie flavor rotations, this is literally the same vibe if not better. The pandan coconut was my ALL TIME FAVORITE flavor I've tried so far. Even after a late night out on Friday. I will wake myself up to get in line by 7am Saturday morning so they don't run out by the time it's my turn

    Whatever question you are asking yourself about Slow Rise, the answer is that it is worth it. It's worth it to wake up early. It's worth it to wait in a long line. And it's worth it for the price. I tried Slow Rise for the first time at a pop up in the northland. The flavors rotate, so there's always something new to try. When I made it to the front of the line, the owner was so nice and really took her time to provide great service. You can tell the love and care she puts into her product. The donuts themselves are out of this world. The ones I tried had either creme or jelly filling. The flavors are so balanced against the sourdough, not too sweet. The savory flavor really shocked me in the best way. I was able to slice these in half and keep them in an airtight container for a few days. The outside was a little sticky, but they were still delish. It's worth it!!

    Another Slow Rise pop-up, another happy me! Today they had my favorite savory, the Pimento Hot Honey. Apple Pie was divine. The pie crust on top was as yummy as it was cute! I haven't even tried the Key Lime, Cherry Balsamic, or Cookies n Cream yet, but I know they will all be 5+ star donuts. Such nice people and I love when they do their pop-ups at Good Karma because it's such a cool and yummy coffee shop.

    Definitely high quality donuts, but if you're not a donut person, this donut isn't going to change your mind. They're almost identical to other trendy donuts like Flour Box in Seattle, and overall not worth the wait or the price. These are also fried in coconut oil, which lends a certain aroma and greasiness to the final product that wasn't super pleasant. That said, it was fun to check out once just to see what the hype was all about. My friends and I got up at 5:30am and waited for two hours at OP Farmer's Market. The donuts are soft and fluffy, and I loved all the flavors (except for original, which was just a plain donut). Overall, not bad but wouldn't go back. If you're looking for similar Asian flavors, head over to Mr. D's donuts, pick up Mooyuei's sweets at KC Craft Ramen, or check out other Asian desserts like Hamu Bakery's.

    We woke up early and waited in line for 4 hours--starting at 4 am in 30-degree weather--but it was so worth it. The donuts Slow Rise makes are amazing! We tried both sweet and savory varieties, and every single one was delicious. The sourdough donuts are something special, and the family-owned business truly shines through in the quality and passion they put into their donuts. Our favorites were the passionfruit and pandan coconut--they were incredible! Definitely worth the hype. Just make sure to get there early to grab more before they sell out. It's a bit of a commitment, but I'd do it again in a heartbeat!

    Saturday morning we headed to Grand Coffee where Slow Rise donuts popped up at 10am with all of their proceeds are going to Children's Mercy. (So generous!) We arrived about 40 minutes before (9:20am) the pop-up because these are some very high-demand donuts with long wait times. We ended up getting to the counter exactly 1 hour after they opened (11am). Today's flavors were: passionfruit curd, biscoff cookie, cinnamon, pistachio, pandam coconut, everything, dill and classic bavarian. Thankfully, we left with one of each at $5 a pop. These sourdough donuts are sooo light and fluffy, taking 3 days to prepare, and Slow Rise usually comes stocked with ~1,000 of them (selling out about 2-2.5 hours after opening). Visit them at the Lawrence Farmer's Market and/or check their socials for their next pop-up!

    These are the BEST donuts I have had in the KC area!!!!! The everything was my favorite!! This was my first time going to one of their pop ups. Got in line 1.5 hours before they started selling and it took about 25-30min to get to the front once they started so roughly 2 hours total and the only thing I regret is not getting more donuts! The 2 hours flew by because waiting in line it was even a positive experience. Other customers were so friendly and getting to know each other and had nothing but amazing things to say about this family and how amazing they are. When they arrived and before they started selling they went through the line to get an estimate of how many donuts everyone would be purchasing so they could cutoff the line and prevent people waiting that likely get to the front before they ran out. I will 100% be going back and telling all of my friends!!

    Made my way to a Saturday pop up last week. I arrived early for the pop up because I had heard the donuts were amazing. I am glad that I can when I did because the line was already quickly growing. There were some fun and unique flavors that were fun to try. The owners were very nice and gracious and made the wait worth it. The donuts were fluffy and still delicious days later!

    Today (6/1/24) I drove out to Lawrence, KS from Kansas City (MO side) to try out Slow Rise for the first time. When I saw the turnout at Overland Park Farmers Market last week, there was an outrageous line for these doughnuts where even if you were to start standing in line by the time they opened they would likely have sold out due to the over 150 people already in the queue, and this is not an exaggeration as I counted a few times. With some brisk research I found that when they are at Lawrence the hype is not as intense which is what led me to embark on the trek over to rival KU territory (Mizzou grad here by the way). I arrived at Lawrence Farmers Market at around 6:00 am, and the parking lot was literally empty, but as a first timer I had no idea where the hell to stand in line since Slow Rise does not start to set up until very close to the 7:30 opening time. I was hoping more people would start showing up, but it wasn't until around 6:30 am I saw a random gathering of sorts which I found starting at the Northeast corner of the parking lot. I have included a marking of where the line starts on a map screenshot. At this time I was among the first 15 in line which is pretty reasonable. Checkout is brisk and efficient as they have 3 cashiers going at once. After I picked up my doughnuts at around 7:40 am, the line was at about 50 people. Still a lot of people, but much tamer compared to Overland Park. So even if you arrived at opening time there is still a very good chance to get doughnuts. Since I had congestive heart failure 2 years ago, I am technically not supposed to be even eating doughnuts but having half a donut would still be safe for me. I got the strawberry rhubarb, chocolate mocha, and cinnamon toast crunch. With the sugary coating and flaky texture of the sourdough, it was a very pleasant bite and the strawberry filling was fresh, gushing with flavor. The chocolate mocha filling was rich and had just the right amount of mocha to it. Cinnamon toast crunch was pretty much the cereal but in creamy donut form. The doughnuts are a wholesome homemade quality, almost like a fried donut but in a more sophisticated baked form. The consistency is soft/pillowy and easy to chew, can definitely taste the difference with the days of process it takes. It would poise no difficulty to scarf down a dozen. My initial expectations were high to expect it to feel like it was biting into a cloud, but I could not go that far. Overall I would say Slow Rise meets all the hype as an excellent donut and I can now understand the reason for the long lines. The owners are very friendly and personable at checkout with an extreme dedication to responding to all and any feedback on social media. I'm not sure if I would go through the trouble again to drive to Lawrence, pay the tolls, and drive back to KC, but if you want a less crowded and more attainable experience, going to Lawrence is the way to go compared to Overland Park. If I lived in Lawrence I'd eat these every day for sure. I'll probably drive to Lawrence again actually.

    Ask the Community - Slow Rise

    I'm curious about the price. I love sweets and donuts?

    Filled donuts are $5 and unfilled (plain) are $4 so approx $30 for a half dozen or $60 for a dozen. Hope that helps!
