Was around the area for shopping. I saw a line outside the building and was easy to spot. We waited about 5 minutes in the cold but decided to step out of line and try online ordering after seeing a sign for online pickup. The line was quite long out of the store and it was cold on a December lunch hours. I went shopping and tried to order online for pickup-- and online ordering was closed. =( big fail. After shopping, went back to Voodoo and to my surprise, there was no line. This was about 3pm. I am glad I didn't have to wait in the cold for what I could've gotten without a line. There were many workers and very friendly. I loved the inside decor and pink colors. It is very welcoming. They even have a donut decoration station where customers can watch employees put on toppings of donuts. The bathroom had sewage issues so they were allowing all to use 1 bathroom. Bathrooms are split by gender (not gender-neutral). You'll need to ask for a code from am employee. We ordered 5 donuts and it wasn't anything special. It definitely was not worth waiting in line.

Voodoo Doughnut has opened in the Chicagoland area, and I spent New Year's Day seeing where the magic happens. Before entering the doughtnut haven there's a banner of donuts on the window so you can plan ahead what you want to get. Sometimes the lines can get pretty long. Upon entering, you're greeted with a mesmerizing carousel of doughnuts. Luckily, I planned ahead and went to the website and read every doughnut description and made a list of each donut I wanted to purchase. There's yeast and cake type donuts. I like them both. There's so many donuts and it will take a few visits to taste all of them. I was pretty happy with my choices, which included Oh Captain, My Captain, Butterfingering, Chocolate Coconut Cake, Double Chocolate, Mango Tango, and Maple Old Fashioned! read more

I don't think they stuck enough needles in my voodoo doll because I was not under any type of spell. There's a huge variety but that doesn't make this place that special. The donuts aren't super soft and I recognize that isn't every's taste but that's how Krispy Kreme set the standard. The leftovers got so hard, you couldn't push your voodoo needles in. The guy who took my order might have been under some kind of spell. Maybe he was smoking a voodoo doll... I tried the dirty old bastard and the toppings are okay but the donut itself is just meh. Dirty old bastard deserved better. Had an old fashion too and I just didn't see any appeal. Don't let the location or branding put you In a haze. I mean it's worth a try if you're a donut afficionado but don't leave any strands of hair behind so they don't lure you back. read more

I love Voodoo Doughnuts! This was my first visit & I only bought 2 different doughnuts but they are fantastic & so cute! Of course delicious!!. My hubby & I laughed about the cock & balls doughnut! I did pick a sugar & also a frosted chocolate. Both were great! I can't eat a lot at once. So I had 1 doughnut in the car on our way home. Then the other the next day. Still very fresh. I do want to go back for more. We usually avoid the downtown Chicago area. A bit too busy for us. We were there taking a family member for rehab treatment. Sad to say that person left before being checked in! So, please keep that person & us in your prayers. I do not want to say who it is, but a very close family member. Thanks in advance for your kindness. Good Blessings to anyone reading this too. Voodoo Doughnuts is worth a trip to a busy area with a lot of traffic. We were lucky to find parking right in front! read more

Do we need another donut place in Fulton Market? Yes, we do. This has become my go-to spot since I figured out how to avoid the lines. Come before 8am. Parking is much better then too. The yeast donuts are fluffy and fresh. The old fashioned (my favorite) is crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside, and most importantly not too sweet. They have some unique flavors and some gimmicky ones (like the Homer). read more

I've been wanting to check out Voodoo for a while now, and so glad I was able to finally stop in. They have a wide variety of donuts to choose from. Out of the many I chose from, I loved the banana cream & maple bacon long John. Can't wait to go back! read more

Voodoo Doughnut - Donuts Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Maple Blazer Blunt: Voodoo Doughnut has been on my list of gourmet doughnut shops to visit for years. Although I believe it now qualifies as a chain, the original location was founded by Portlanders Kenneth "Cat Daddy" Pogson and Tres Shannon in 2003. I finally had the opportunity to visit a location as they opened one just south of MKE in Chicago. I wanted to try more doughnuts than I had room in my stomach for, so I prioritized my selection based on what I thought was most exclusive to Voodoo Doughnut and my tastes. The Maple Blazer Blunt is a raised blunt (doughnut) dusted in cinnamon sugar and topped at one end with maple frosting and red sprinkles (embers). Funny enough, it could also easily pass as an ice cream cone doughnut if you are visiting with young kids and they want it. While we're focusing on the design, it is unfortunately not easy to eat. I started consuming it at the head/cap, which proved to be a mistake. With each bite working towards the foot, the maple icing would crack and falloff. I adjusted to eating from the "fiery" foot, but not before losing a large chunk of maple frosting/sprinkles that conveniently fell into my open (was trying to cool it) coffee cup. The texture was average and the small amount of maple icing that I did get in my mouth was delicious, but I wouldn't get this one again. Fun for the novelty, but really, it's just okay . This was a 3 star doughnut but 4 stars overall since the atmosphere was cool and the Banana Cream Pie was a 5 star doughnut. Doughboy_Food_Reviews My top doughnut shops: 1. Donut Bar (San Diego) 2. Pinkbox Doughnuts (Las Vegas) 3. Everglazed (Disney Springs) 4. Cranky Al's (MKE) 5. Krispy Kreme (various locations in different states) read more

Ordered delivery though DoorDash (which is perfect for snowy day) - the order was very fresh, donuts are huge! I got the regular ones as well as vegan voodoo signature - surprisingly loved the vegan more! They have plenty of options for both vegan and non vegan - so take your pick :) the favorite one was the mango - very unique flavor for donuts. They have so many more I'm wanting to try - I will be coming back P.S. Main taste tester of the household refused to take donut photos without his presence they're that good read more

So excited I got to try voodoo! Very cool place I love all the pink! Staff was friendly as well, I was able to bring my doggy in! Ordering was a bit stressful, all the donuts are displayed on a rotating shelf and it's hard to see all the flavors until they rotate in front of you. I felt stressed because of the long line and panicked. I would order ahead next time! Besides that, these are my favorite donuts in the city! They are so big! My favorite was the Boston crème, they were not skimpy on the crème! The banana crème pie was also very good full of flavor! Even a day after I got these they were still fresh! Can't wait to try more! read more

Voodoo Doughnut - Banana Cream Pie Dirt Portland Cream canoli - Donuts Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

What a great way to end 2023 by having Chicago's own Voodoo Donuts location!! My first time trying Voodoo was in Colorado and I fell in love. Upon entering, you are immediately greeted by their high energy staff which really sets the mood. They have their donuts on display via a revolving stand. They have so many flavors to choose from that it can be overwhelming but exciting. My choices were - grape ape, maple bacon bar, Go-tart, and Portland cream. Mind you these donuts are HUGE so its perfect for sampling & sharing with friends. I bought the Portland cream for my bf because he likes cream donuts and I don't. The grape ape is sweet and tasted like grape kool-aid. The Go-tart is supposed to be like a pop tart (my only criticism on it is that the jelly filling was only on 1 side of the donut). read more

I was so excited to try this place out after hearing so much about it. $25 got us about 5 assorted donuts to try. We arrived later in the evening, no like no wait. It was very bright, woke me right up; didn't even need caffeine. We ordered our donuts, and they were packed in minutes. Every donut I tried was delicious. I love the jelly filled ones the most, especially the vodoo doll. The donuts were cute and tasty. I will be back. read more

I don't know that Chicago really needed a doughnut infusion from the West Coast, but if you haven't tried Voodoo Doughnuts at their original locations, it's nice to be able to try them in Chicago. We grabbed a few to try and prices ranged from $3 to $4.75 each. It was nice that they were all on display, so you can easily select what you are interested in. They will have stiff competition with Chicago stand-outs like Do-Rite and Stan's. read more

Finally made it down to Voodoo donuts. I completely forgot there is a chicago location until we seen it at Fulton Market. We had to go there. At the spot my wife and I split the old dirty bastard. Upon the first bite regretted splitting with her. We then ordered the classic dozen to take home as we were not sure when we can make it back. We also had to share some with the kids. read more

I've always seen so much hype for Voodoo donuts and it's nice that there's a location in Chicago! I got the Dirt, Smores and Blueberry raised donut. The dirt was great and I recommend it for those who enjoy oreos/cookies and cream. The smores donut was so indulgent, filled with marshmallow cream. The blueberry one was also good but probably not the best in the city. The service was pretty quick and I love that your donuts come in a cute pink box. If you're in the area and need a donut fix, this spot is a great choice! read more

Even after living in Austin for 5 years, I never got to try the famous voodoo doughnuts. We came in Saturday night to order a couple of different flavors. I liked the Homer slice and the old dirty bastard the best. We also got the Diablo Rex, sprinkle cake, and ring of fire. I'm glad I tried these, and they were all a good price point; however, I like the other donut shops in Chicago overall in terms of taste. read more

Here's a more polished This was my first time visiting Voodoo Donut, as I had a delivery order to pick up. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming as soon as I walked in. They attended to me right away, which was great. Although my delivery order was delayed due to some missing items, the team handled it with professionalism and courtesy. They made sure I got everything I needed, and I really appreciated their efforts. Overall, it's a lovely shop with great service, and I'll definitely be back. Due to the delay I was able to try one of the donuts the lemon blueberry fritter and it was divine. read more

I'm surprised by some of the low rankings! We walked right in at 7 pm on a Saturday for some snacks to bring home after dinner and they had all the varieties we wanted! There's lots to choose from and while I do wish they had descriptions somewhere, it's easy enough to pull up your phone and read them online. I highly recommend any of the fritter types (Memphis Mafia is a banana fritter with peanut butter and it is DELISH) as well as the vegan peanut butter and jelly! You wouldn't know it's vegan. read more

Stopped in the other day because the outside of the building caught my attention. There are so many different types of donuts to pick from and are pretty tasty and don't cost a bunch of money. The only downfall is they only take card payments and no cash. I bought two donuts and was going to pay cash because it was so cheap but had to pay card. There was one gentleman working when I stopped in and he was friendly. read more

I was very excited that we now have voodoo in Chicago. We came here later in the day and it wasn't super busy, but then people started coming in all at once. I felt a little rushed because there were a lot of people. Ordering was a little confusing because it's my first time there. The employee wasn't too friendly when I asking/making my options. I wanted to try their apple fritter, but it was sold out for the day. We ended up getting the voodoo dozen. I had tried the Portland cream one and another that I forgot what it was, but I wasn't too impressed with them. Tasted like any other place? Nothing really stood out really. I do want to go back to try the apple fritter though lol read more

Okay - I have tried these twice so I didn't give a 3 star for a one time misfire, but yet here I am, giving a 3 star after the second try and I think it's warranted. First off - the staff here is wonderful. Everyone is so chill and kind and patient. I love that. Especially when I take my kids because they have a little anxiety around lots of people and they're learning how to interact in these situations and just... 10/10 for the employees. Second of all - the donut selection. Wonderful. 10/10 for options. Lastly - I do not think the donut quality is very good. We have ordered the employee selected dozen twice. And I wonder if they aren't taking the leftover day old donuts and putting them in those which from a business standpoint is smart, but from a consumer standpoint the donuts have never tasted fresh to us at all. They taste like grocery store donuts with decorations. Really frustrating because I was so pumped for this place to open, but I don't think we'll ever go again. ETA- this got a 3 instead of a 2 from me purely because I hold out hope that if you order in-person the day of the donuts are fresh. read more

I love Voodoo Donut so I was stoked to see they opened a Chicago location. I've gone here twice now and maybe it's my luck but my donuts have not been satisfying either visit. I've tried everything from the hibiscus to mango tango to the blunt to banana crème (seasonal flavor) and the dough has been dry and the toppings just fall off after the first bite. They aren't bad. It's still a fun donut and I'll probably give it a third try but it's not what I was excited for. They have all the classics plus they do some seasonal flavors but nothing was as good as I remember it being out west. read more

Funny and unique donuts with many flavors including one that that is part of the male body :-). Everyone gets a kick out of that one. The display for the donuts is so colorful and you want to try each one. They have tables here and they have drinks as well and the decor inside is really a lot of fun to look at. This one is in the heart of west loop near all the restaurants and there is diagonal parking right in front but you have to pay through the app for meters about $4 per hour or so. read more

I like voodoo donuts a lot and was excited for them to come to chicago! The prices are pretty reasonable for where it's located and there's a ton of variety. 1 star off because I've had them twice and they have not been hitting the same way as the ones I had in Portland - a lot of them like the signature voodoo donut and the Oreo one felt way too sweet (and I have a real sweet tooth). Maybe I need to try other flavors that are more balanced. But they may need to work on their recipe or they won't compare favorably to Chicago favorites like Stans and do-rite. read more

Voodoo Doughnut - Donuts Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I really wanted to not like Voodoo Doughnut since it felt very overhyped. But I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked it. Would give it 4.5 stars if I could on Yelp. There were a lot of crazy sounding donuts which I was too scared to try. So I stuck with their classic voodoo donut and the Old Dirty Bastard donut. The voodoo donut was a good but it was disappointing because mine didn't have the pretzel sticking out as I've seen in pictures. I like the yeast donuts here because they are so fluffy. This particular donut has a great chocolate frosting though I could have done without the jelly center as I felt it made it too sweet. The real star here is the Old Dirty Bastard donut. Talk about combining all of my favorites: donuts, oreos, and peanut butter! Easily one of my favorite donuts of all time. Overall, I really liked the donuts that I tried. I would come back for the Old Dirty Bastard donut alone. Plus, the donuts are pretty big so I feel like I get my moneys worth. Would be open to trying some of their other flavors. read more

Checked out Chicago's first Voodoo Doughnuts! The store front itself is hard to miss with the bright pink brick and large black branding letters. I loved that they had a large window graphic outside showing their main doughnut offers to understand what you want to order and if anything sounds good before even walking in. The inside has some fun wall graphics, two doughnut displays, minimal seating, and merch for purchase. I got the Portland Cream (their take on a boston cream) and boy was it good! The main doughnut tasted like a baked cake constancy. Overall it was sweet but not overbearing. I loved that they have vegan options as well! Pricing is a bit steep but one knows they are going there for the special experience Voodoo has to offer. read more

The first time I tried Voodoo Doughnut was in San Antonio, Texas and was not fan. So I was hesitant to give it another try in Chicago. I let the newness wear off and ended up trying it twice in a week and my experience in Chicago was much better! Service is a bit slow, but I couldn't tell if that was because of staff or people ordering simply not knowing what they want. The line is usually longish when I've been there or driven by. They should consider putting a sandwich board of the menu or top sellers along the line. Kind of like Jeni's across the street does. People clearly want to see the donuts up close and printed photos of them (or a QR code leading to something similar) could go a long way. The inside of Voodoo looks similar to all the others. Nothing to write home about tbh. The doughnuts are good. Much better than my San Antonio experience. The Homer and Glazed Old Fashioned were my favorite. And since visiting the first time I've experienced the morning and late night crew at this location and the quality of the doughnut and customer service experience is about the same. Some of the newness has worn off (at the time of writing this, a month after ordering) but I hope this place remains consistent, if so I'll be a consistent customer! read more

So happy that Voodoo donuts finally opened in Chicago. We tried the pink donut with sprinkles, the mango donut, the chocolate donut and the voodoo doll donut. All donuts were so tasty! There was a bit of a line at the store, but it was fast moving. Also, the staff was well informed and friendly. The decor is very eclectic with big logos, a big merch table, pink walls and bright decor. The seating looked limited though. A must try if you love eclectic donuts! read more

Brand new to the Chicago Fulton market scene, these doughnuts are worth the hype! Bringing its creative flare from the west coast, these delicious treats are melt in your mouth good, but a word from the wise, check out the menu before you stop by, or while you are waiting in line as the choices can be overwhelming. Every flavor possible, Alex, was such a huge help. Our first time visiting, luckily on a week day morning with no line, he walked us through the items, giving us a few notable mentions, and was very friendly and personable. I would avoid the store on the weekends, and don't forget to check out their merchandise! read more
