    2 Glazed and 2 blueberry donuts.
    Elijah R.

    Great donuts, maybe it was an off day. They weren't as soft as I remember before. Not sure if I would get the glazed donut again, but the blueberry I will for sure.

    Shouldve grabbed a pic before we ate some but we couldnt wait

    This place is a MUST try! We were so sad that we got there late in the day but they still had an amazing selection! The wonderful woman in charge felt like visiting family, she was so kind and made an effort to make sure our first visit was memorable! She went over all the donuts, told us about the shop itself and was just so genuinely kind. Also, we had all these between just 2 of us so we kinda spent the rest of the day eating them - can confirm they never once got stale. We ate the last one at midnight & it tasted just as fresh as the ones we had when we first got home!

    The donuts are incredible but the customer service is even better! 1000 out of 10!!!!!!

    Cherry fritter

    Try the cherry fritter - I've heard they also have blueberry if you get there early! Bonus points for being right next to Aldi's- pick up some milk and get home quick to devour these! They also sell milk inside here.

    I'm afraid to share my favorite thing about The Donut Stop in fear that y'all will sell them out. The cinnamon glob is where it's at! It's basically a cinnamon roll that forgot what it was doing. It's a ball on cinnamon dough, fried, and then glazed. Get one for yourself for today and tomorrow, and then another to share with a friend. My last visit, they were sold out of cinnamon globs (probably because the secret got out when they were just voted best donut shop in Missouri by Food and Wine magazine) so the next best thing is an apple fritter. This day, they had a blueberry fritter complete with actual blueberries! Cinnamon roll was a bit dry, so not the best substitute for the glob.

    Social distancing enforced at this donut shop recently touted as the best donuts in St. Louis by Food & Wine. Definitely glad I tried it and they were delicious although the MOST delicious, that's always relative. I was hoping to try their talked about CINNAMON GLOB but they were out...hence the ding of a star...that and the fact that a manager giving directions to the staff had his mask down the whole time I was there. Give them a try and see if you think the are the best in the state. Taste testing your way around town for donuts is always a worthy cause.

    Vanilla Long John and Apple Fritter!
    Richard V.

    Rating: 4.2 Stars This was my first experience The Donut Stop. A coworker brought in donuts, and she invited me to try some. I had the Vanilla Long John and the Apple Fritter. The Vanilla Long John has solid flavor, and it was a bit denser than other Long Johns that I have had. The vanilla icing had a great sweetness. The Apple Fritter was pretty solid. I am not a big Apple Fritter fan, but there weren't too many options left for me to choose from. This Apple Fritter had generous apple slices. Ultimately, I would get it again. Frankly, given my love for Pharaoh's Donuts, I never would have thought to come here. I'd like to go here to get fresh donuts in my favorite flavors to compare this to other donut shops. Pharaoh's Donuts is definitely superior to The Donut Stop, but this is a solid option for sure in St. Louis if you need donuts.

    STOP. HERE. We're making our way across country stopping at well-reviewed donut shops and THIS is a must stop. We unfortunately visited at the end of their hours which usually means leftover donuts. not in this case. fresh, incredible well fried dough with just the right amount of sugary filings. our favorites: whipped cream chocolate iced long john and the chocolate iced peanut butter filled! well done, Donut Stop!

    You know it's a great "donut stop" when you arrive and Sun is shining down!!!

    2021 update!!!! Shoot, I can't think of a better way to support a local business!!! Sunday morning donut run! Best donuts in St Louis still!!

    The blueberry cake donut was good, but the 3 others were pretty bland and dry. Friendly staff though.

Or at least that's what I like to romanticize. My wife and I are kicking off donut Wednesday with a trip to Donut House on Morganford. I described ourselves to the proprietor as long-time passersby, first-time stopper in. We had been by Donut House 100s of times and decided to make Donut House our inaugural Donut Wednesday stop (we'll probably do every other or 1 out of 3 Wednesdays). We both have our favorites...hers blueberry cake, apple fritter, cinnamon roll. His...blueberry cake, apple fritter and a custard filled chocolate. Not disappointed at all, these donuts were great! The blueberry cakes were light, fluffy and blueberry bombs. The apple fritter was like a light, fluffy deep fried apple pie...great cinnamon and tart apple...maybe the best I've ever had. The custard filled chocolate is my personal litmus test...this one was good but not great. Could have used more custard BUT is there ever a bad donut??? NEVER. Glad we stopped in and will do so again. FYI there is seating inside and plenty of off street parking. Plus the light at Morganford / Seibert makes going an easy in / out. Oh and there is a drive thru...way too easy.

Donuts were delish, including the jam filled one (considering I usually turn my head when offered one, usually too much jam & super messy to eat), and top notch customer service even if only a few words were spoken lol. ***Bonus tip...large-ish parking LOT for the area! I think there was about 12 parking spots on the LOT, then some additional street parking. This is a MAJOR plus in my book....my rims appreciate it not being parallel parking!

I honestly thought they had gone out of business, because it always looked closed when I was in the area. Once I got out of my car and approached the door, I saw the hours and realized that every time I was in the area, they indeed were closed. I already had a coffee, so all I needed for a late breakfast was a donut. The Cinnamon Roll tempted me, but it was HUGE. Then I was torn between, Blueberry Chocolate and Chocolate Pistachio, but I ended up ordering a Chocolate Steve. A Chocolate Steve, is basically a Long John.

But the cream cheese, blueberry, cinnamon roll doughnut was huge! And so so yummy. The maple bacon was great as well, the perfect balance of savory and sweet. The reason I give four stars instead of five is that the inside could use a little bit of work. Maybe add a table or two? It wasn't very inviting. This is more of a grab and go place. There is nowhere to sit and eat your donuts or hang out. However, they do serve coffee to go. I did not try it.
