Donut selection and menu

The best donuts I've ever had!! I also tried their breakfast croissants and coffee and they were so delicious! I kept forgetting to order/get certain things and the lady at the cashier was so lovely and sweet! The place itself was my daughter's dream, pink everywhere and so cute in every corner. Perfect for a donut photoshoot!

First time in Chicago and first time at Stan's Donuts on Rush Street. Well done! They delivered for me. I'm not big on donuts, but their breakfast items (the burrito and the ham & cheese on a bagel bun) were fresh, hot, and delicious. The service was top-notch: fast, efficient, and super friendly despite the crowd. The donuts on display looked amazing, too. Highly recommend this spot for great food and great energy.

We went here for the luck of the bite.First tasters event. We tasted the new donuts and drinks that Stan's is offering for Saint Patrick's day this year. We went to the doors marked 750 North Rush Street and they were locked. Stan's is actually a little farther north, almost on the corner of Rush and Chicago. That's location is very clean, the doughnuts are fresh, and the employees are really nice. They have the cutest seating area with lots of space in between tables. We would definitely stop in here again when we're in the area.

REALLY Busy place. packed with people on a Saturday morning. The donuts look delicious! I didn't try the crounuts they are known for but opted for the mini donuts instead. I tried the birthday cake and old fashioned donuts. They were OK. I'm not sure what the hype is, but again I did not try thier signature donuts so this could be why. Glad I tried them, but not sure i need ro come back.

We stopped by after lunch this week and truthfully I was nervous about the experience because sometimes when you have a business in a touristy area, you get crappy service. That was not the case here. We stopped in for 1/2 dozen donuts and an extra one for our dentist friend. The service was amazing and helpful. I didn't feel pressured to hurry with my choices nor rushed at all. The interior was clean and the staff were friendly. I'm beyond glad we stopped in!

Came to the famous Stan's Donuts here in Chicago. This is an adorable, and pink restaurant that is fun and lively with an amazing selection of donuts and coffee. The donuts are so appetizing to look at and even better to eat! I wish they had more "filled" options, but I can't complain, they were still delicious. The coffee was fantastic. This is far superior to dunkin and krispy kreme. If you are in Chicago, get over here.

My kids love the donuts and I enjoy all the fun and unique flavors, as well as gluten less options! I've tried several coffee beverages and they are just okay. Breakfast sandwiches are decent and pretty big. The eggs taste like fresh scrambled instead of a frozen patty. The rewards program adds up pretty quickly for free items too. They initially forgot my cold foam on my drink and gave me one wrong donut, but they were pretty busy.

Randomly stumbled upon this place while visiting Chicago and noticed how many people were sitting inside and the donuts caught my eye immediately! So I'm usually not a "donut" girl but there was something about all the pink in there that made me curious to go inside. Unsure of what to order, I was suggested by the guy working at the counter to try their signature donut which was a sugar glaze layered croissant donut stuffed with cream cheese icing. WOW...first bite and the cream cheese icing bursts in my mouth! Sugar spilled all over my clothes but that didn't stop me from eating this AMAZING donut. Now I can see why this place is packed!

I've been thinking about doughnuts lately; it has been a while since I had a good one. You know, a good yeast doughnut that is thick, tender, and toothsome. So that was probably why I was telling my sister I wanted a Chicago doughnut on our way to Riverwalk. And as if conjured up by my longings, Stan's Donuts appeared as we turned the corner. A line was already forming as we entered. While I wanted to sample many of the gems in the glass case (fritters, jelly, chocolate-covered), I knew we were having deep-dish pizza for lunch and did not want to be too full. In the end, I went with the cruffin and the PB&J. I enjoyed my little treat by one of the large windows, in one of the cute PINK leather armchairs. I loved the decor here, especially the PINK seating throughout the space. The cruffin, a porte-manteau for a doughnut made of laminated dough and baked in a muffin tin, was fresh and flaky. I liked the vanilla pastry cream piped throughout and the crunchy cinnamon sugar topping. Mindful of lunch, I only had half of the cruffin and decided to save the other doughnut for breakfast the next day. Service was slower than I would have liked. I can never understand why people can't decide while in line and instead hold everyone else up.

Vanilla Glazed Cruller

This was my first visit to Stan's. I was walking around and passed multiple Stan's locations. I popped in and ordered a vanilla glazed cruller and a hot tea at the North Rush Street location. Employees were friendly, restaurant was clean and I received my order fast. Absolutely no complaints! Definitely worth the visit. Hopefully all locations are this good.

Fun donut flavors The "cake" on the donuts is great The only down side was my person preference of needing more apples.

We came on a very busy Sunday morning with a very long line and the staff rocked it! They were hustling and moving the line so quickly. The donuts were absolutely delightful - tasted so fresh! The cold brew was perfect. We also got two breakfast sandwiches, both tasty! Above all the staff was friendly and handled the business so well. Huge shout out to them at the Rush Street location!

We've been to several Stan's (mostly this location) and have always had a good experience. They offer a large variety of donuts (and drinks) to choose from that are always delicious. Plenty of seating, clean (as much as they can be during a rush) & cute interior. The gentleman at the counter was kind, smiley and helpful. Want to try some other donut shops in Chicago, but always get drawn back to Stan's... for good reason! 'Til next time... :)

I know these aren't cheap but you get a really good donut opposed to the major chain. I really like these and think it's worth the premium.

Decided to explore downtown Chicago this weekend and wanted to grab a little snack to enjoy on my…read morewalk. That's when I stumbled upon Do-Rite Donuts & Chicken! I arrived around 9:30 AM, and their most popular donuts were already almost sold out. That's always a good sign! I ended up getting a cruller and a strawberry-frosted donut. I tried to practice a little self-control by eating only half of each and saving the rest for later, but that plan quickly went out the window. They were just too good to resist! Later in the day, I told my friend she needed to check this place out for their donuts, only for her to tell me that it's her go-to spot every Sunday. Clearly, she's been in on this little gem for a while! While paying for my donuts, I also noticed they serve chicken, which gives me another reason to come back. I can't wait to try some more of their donuts and eventually venture into their chicken sandwiches. Definitely worth a stop when exploring downtown Chicago, especially if you have a sweet tooth!

We walked to this location and it was busy! It's a walk-in location but they have a few stools inside and tables outside to enjoy your food. In addition to donuts, as the name suggests they also have a variety of chicken tenders and sandwiches, but at 9:30 in the morning, it was a little early for me to enjoy chicken, but I'm sure it's delicious! It was hard to choose what donut to eat because they all looked delicious, but I settled on the apple fritter and my wife had the gluten-free sprinkle one and it was so good, she ordered a second to go. My apple fritter was great and not too sweet. Based on the donuts, I would come back to try the chicken! What a great local spot with great donuts.

These are some of the best, if not *THE* best donuts I've ever had. Chicago has some excellent…read moredonuts... Do-rite, Voodoo, Firecakes, even Stan's under some conditions; Doughnut Vault beats them all! Maybe it's because they were made an hour or two ago? Maybe they use better/fresher oil? I don't know, and frankly, it makes no difference to the smile on my face. The two donuts I had that day were their daily specials. IIRC, one was a Salted Caramel Old Fashioned, and the other was a Yeast Apple(something) filled donut. The Old Fashioned blew me away. The dough had a very light, but nonetheless present crispness from being fried. The dough itself was sweet, and the salted caramel coating was on point, with actual salt notes coming through. The apple-filled was similarly delicious, though I regret cutting this into pieces and enjoying it over three days, for this made it seem like there was not enough filling! Learn from my mistakes, and enjoy these things whole! More to love is that their prices are more than reasonable for the quality, and the service is friendly, knowledgeable, and fast! If there is one quibble that I have, it's that the donuts were just a touch sweeter than I would prefer. However, this is a matter of personal preference, since these are donuts for crying out loud! Final verdict: Best donuts ever! Go! Do!

We got there around 11 AM and unfortunately, a lot of flavors were already sold out. The interior…read moreis very small. You basically walk in and immediately see the donut counter, with room for maybe 4 customers max. Service was amazing! The guy greeted us as soon as we walked in and had such big energy. Before we looked at the menu he showed us the variety he had left. 9/10 service, definitely a fun way to start the day! This was actually my first time trying an old fashioned donut. The pistachio old fashioned was nothing too special. It tasted more like a dense cake, was slightly oily, but I did like how dense and filling it was. 6/10. Definitely want to come back earlier next time to try more of their flavors!

Tbh I remember being disappointed because of the hype. Today I entered with tempered expectations. I tried the Old Fashioned doughnut and it was somewhere between solid and above average. I'll definitely stick with Do-Rite especially because they're a few blocks away and significantly better. If the job catered Voodoo I'd indulge, but considering I prefer a few other donut shops I won't make a special trip. Great service plus a respectable donut equals 3.51 stars.

It also doesn't hurt that they are open from 6am to Midnight - perfect for those sudden doughnut cravings! One thing that can be improved is how they handle big orders. I recently ordered over 5 dozen doughnuts and it came in 6 boxes and a small bag. First problem: they don't deliver. Second and bigger problem is that they don't pack big orders so you can carry them out. How the heck am I going to carry 6 boxes and a bag of donuts??? Maybe they want to keep their business "small". A simple brown bag or even something to tie the boxes together would have been very helpful.
