    From Boston. Moved here in June. My kid was fully a Bostonian Dunks kid. Now he's a Stan's kid. He loves the chocolate dipped. The Harper Ct location is great. Such friendly people and a wonderful manager. Not a donut person myself but the pretzel bagel is interesting. Bfast sandwiches are decent. Their matcha latte is very sweet so beware. Caramel latte is decent. My son Likes to come in weekly. So they are doing something right :)

    They get the 5th star because they have a vegan donut. I got the Almond Croissant Donut and I couldn't be happier. It was filled with a fluffy almond cream. Why Max chose a plain Old Fashioned is something I still question. Why would you get a plain Jane when they have so many unique ones to choose from. My only suggestion would be if they had a large sign on the outside that pictured the donuts of the day. Once you get in line you need to wait for people to make up their mind. I was that someone. I had to step aside to allow those behind me to go next. It was then that I realized they were just like me, and it gave me more time to think. This spot is worth every penny.

    this is nasty , dont waste your $8 when i order a "protein smoothie" i dont expect it to be runny like soup, why is it not thick? because its nasty, taste like cold water mixed with powder, no quality, no in intention, for this, i blame the business owner, not the staff that made it. because i saw them read the binder on how to even make this poor nasty drank. im better off walking 4 mins further down the same stree to target and buy my self a protien milk sith the cow with 45 grams of protien. if i wanted to drink a runny beverage. smoothie means thick not runny water. pissing me off the buisness should just close down cause how do you fuck up not having ice in the invredient list for this Mug!

    Apple fritter, glazed donut, lemon pistachio old fashioned
    Shirley H.

    I got to try Stan's Donuts from their cute, pastel pink truck in Harper Court before the storefront had opened. I chose a nice assortment of 3 donuts at $3 each - an apple fritter, an original glazed donut, and a lemon pistachio old fashioned. Although I had looked forward to the lemon pistachio old fashioned the most because it sounded unique, my favorite donut was certainly the original glazed. It was super fresh and perfectly sweet. The apple fritter turned out as expected - moist, lots of apple chunks, lots of cinnamon, and heavy. The lemon pistachio old fashioned tasted mostly of lemon and was a tad dry inside. I would definitely get the original glazed again and the apple fritter only if I have someone to share it with because it's so sweet and large. I didn't get a chance to visit the inside of the storefront, but I was able to look into it from the outside and it looked very cute just like their donut truck. It'd be great to visit the storefront someday to try out their drinks and some other donut flavors.

    Such a cute place in Hyde Park! They offer an assortment of donuts, each one better than the next. Tried the biscoff one and was absolutely tasty! Would come again

    The sugar space!

    Stan's is a welcome addition to the neighborhood as well as a sweet lover's dream. The space decor is the classic pink motif that lends a colorful element to Harper Court. The operation is already running smoothly. I recommend using the online ordering system. You can arrange prepayment, pick up, and enjoy your doughy delights in short order. The cost might be a deterrent for many; however, Stan's does have some options for purchasing a variety pack that allows the customer to sample some of the more popular fares. An excellent choice for those not sure what to try at a lower cost. Stan's Doughnuts is a sugary sweet option that will undoubtedly become a mainstay in our neighborhood.

    Super cute cafe in "downtown" Hyde Park with excellent coffee and friendly service…read more I'm not a coffee aficionado, but my dad is, and he was very happy with the quality of the coffee. The cafe doesn't have coffee with "regular" names (eg. Americano). Instead, each item on the menu has a Philz-only name and twist. This makes for a more unique experience that other cafes in Hyde Park. I enjoyed their Iced Coffee Rose, and my father enjoyed both the Silken Splendor and Jacob's Wonderbar. The decor is warm and inviting, and the cashiers and baristas are always friendly and helpful. The cashier in fact walked me through their selection quite extensively and patiently. I haven't tried any of their food so far, but definitely intend to do so. The establishment is open only till 3pm on weekdays, which is unfortunate because otherwise this would have become my default study spot. I still plan to visit, perhaps with a book or two. Overall, I recommend Philz if you are in the neighborhood in the morning or early afternoon.

TBH, Philz is just like any standard coffee shop, offering different kinds of roasts, teas, and light bites. I asked the cashier for a rec and they pointed to the popular flavors. I'm not a dark roast lover, but also wanted a good cup of coffee, so I got the Philtered Soul, which is their medium roast. I initially ordered it hot, but it was pretty warm (~50+ degrees, warm in chi standards lol) that day, so the barista gladly pivoted and made my drink cold. They asked iced or cold brew and I said dealer's choice - I got the cold brew and it was a GREAT gamble!! Loved that there was a cup of free keychains at the register, so I had to take one back w me as a souvenir. Bright spot with ample seating and locals working on laptops. Shoutout to the Philz staff for an overall delightful visit and enjoyable bev!

This however means that the servers and staff put little to no effort in creating a welcoming environment for patrons: they are often curt and unhelpful. They are also unapologetic when they get orders wrong or mixed up, which happens more than one might think. The food itself has not been disappointing, though I would recommend their savoury selections over the sweets. The drinks have generally been good, and I quite liked the Vietnamese iced coffee. The ambiance is super pretty, with cozy couches and comfortable chairs. The location is also fantastic, with a lovely porch that's nice to hang out in during the warmer months. The cafe would make an excellent study spot, but the poor quality of service coupled with the pricey food and drink options make me exceedingly reluctant to return. Visit at your own risk!
