    Buttermilk, which is heavy as a hockey puck!!
    Gerry T.

    I've had plenty of Wheeling Donuts' donuts over the past two years, and they're really good. They're heavy, thick, over-sized and sugary sweet. They use top notch ingredients, you'll be able to taste the chocolate, the red velvet (taste a bit like chocolate), the blueberry, etc. My favorites are the Old Fashioned, the buttermilk (same as the OF, just a different shape), red velvet, the coconut (not so much), the chocolate Bavarian (the cream filling has a nice consistency). The Old Fashioned and Buttermilk donuts also tend to last longer without getting stale. I cut my donuts into quarters and eat one over the course of four days. These two remain consistently good over that time frame. I haven't seen any information on calories per donut, I'll ask for that when I visit the store.

    Raised glazed, blueberry cake, and chocolate cake doughnuts.

    This is a classic doughnut shop! I have been in search of a place offering the classic style of doughnuts. Nothing extravagant, just great eats! Wheeling has been on my test list for months. I am so glad I tried it. They are made just like the old days. Raised cinnamon rolls, apple fritters with a crusty outside and a buttery interior. Blueberry cake doughnuts packed full of flavor. Ensuring the flavors are there without being overpoweringly sweet. I ate a lot of these doughnuts in the day that I had them. I purchased 8 in total, but if I would have gone with a dozen, I am sure they would all disappear. The service was friendly, quick, and without issue. I look forward to returning.

    Yummy donuts

    Fantastic donuts! I can't wait to be in the area again to get donuts again. So fresh so delicious

    Glazed Donut

    I've been here many times, and unfortunately it is not my favorite. Unless you are here first thing in the morning getting fresh donuts I would skip this place. The workers and service is a 10/10 but the donuts are ehh from the experiences I have had. I genuinely think this might just be my taste but they feel a little bit too heavy. Definitely worth a try though to see if they are for you!

    Old fashioned, chocolate old fashioned, twisted glazed, chocolate cake donut, red velvet donut, and cinnamon roll.

    Absolutely love that the donuts are made fresh in house. Our favorites are always readily available and delicious. They are very friendly and the service is fast. The shop offers a great variety of donuts and donut holes. Very cute store. One of our favorite donut places for sure!

    I love being able to support small businesses like this one. The donuts were delicious and I would definitely go back! They had a good variety of cake type donuts and yeast donuts. We were there at 8am on a Sunday morning and did not need to wait in a long line. Was very happy with the variety and taste of donuts! Will return!

    More donuts baked fresh very early morning daily

    When your son don't want you to get donuts for him but wants you to drive him to the store and get it himself... it's clearly a sign that they have very good donuts. I have a sweet tooth and being a good baker as a hobby, I seek out good bakeries. Having to drive up to Wheeling for baseball this winter, thanks to my fellow Yelpers this is one donut bakery you don't want to miss. We been there a few times now and while we have our favorites, they are all really good, meaning soft inside, crisp outside as it's just pulled out of the kitchen, fresh, and taste good. These are simply not dry and do not feel like it's been sitting out there for 24 hours, like some donut places. They bake everything fresh daily, very early morning. People preorder by boxes and love them. Check out the pics I took, we even had a tasting test one visit and it was so fun. We were just so happy! We have some favorites and is hard to deviate to try the others, as there are so many. We'll be back again to try the others We truly love the buttermilk, French cruller, old fashioned, sugar twist donut, cinnamon rolls, chocolate cake. Honestly you can't go wrong with any of them... Enjoy! They take credit card but prefer cash if less than $5.

Something for everyone! Ample parking lot AND a drive thru window! Satisfying portion sizes. The bad: if you snooze, you'll lose on the donut variety, so plan accordingly! I actually got up mid meal to purchase our donuts bc several customers came in between the time we arrived and the time we would've been ready for dessert. You can catch me snoozing at 6am, but not at donut o'clock! The ugly: the cream in the Boston cream donut used to be (atleast a couple years ago, at another location) reminiscent of a true vanilla, pastry cream or custard, but this Boston cream was an IMPOSTER! The cream inside was a slightly greasy, artificial tasting whipped topping that was atrocious. My 7yo rejected the French twist donut she picked bc it was a bit dried out and tasted nutty for some reason. Maybe it was touching other donuts in the process of being made or had some kind of cross contamination. I don't mind nuts, but the staling texture was off putting. This visit didn't live up to the Niles location, and can't wait until the little Glenview shop reopens.

It's a family-owned, grab and go kind of bakery with all the classics. Churros, elote, conchas, and plenty of other panadería favorites. But if there's ONE thing I keep coming back for... It's their tres leches. You can call ahead and order a full sheet cake, or grab an individual slice like the one pictured here. And let me tell you--the cake is SOAKED in milk, exactly how I like my tres leches! Some places are way too stingy with the milk, but Lupita's Bakery does not hold back. The cake is incredibly moist without becoming soggy. The icing is also super light and airy, almost like whipped cream, which I LOVE. And somehow, with all that sweetness, it's not overly sweet at all. Everything just works perfectly together.

There's a nice refrigerated area with tres leches cake slices, flan, and pop.

The churros are delicious when they're freshly made - regular cinnamon sugar, filled with chocolate or vanilla. THIS is why I come here! Some of the pastries are hit or miss, maybe depends on when I'm stopping in? The churros however are always good and keeps me coming back. Plus I can't walk into a Mexican bakery and not leave with a la concha or other goodies.

They were very professional, the tasting went very well and they were attentive listening to ideas and coming up with a classic but unique cake together. We didn't want a cake topper, and we were only using real flowers for the wedding and not reception so we opted for flowers made from icing (which turned out really neat!). We wanted a cool ombre look because our colors were navy blue, light blue, white and silver. It turned out really neat without being so blue everyone's teeth would look like Smurfs lol.

I dodged traffic on Arlington Heights Road to park at the lot across the street so I was committed to buy. I placed my order at the kiosk. There was an option to tip and stupid me, I tipped! Waited for someone to come out to greet me or pack my order. I was the only person in the store. There was plenty of seating, the tabletops were a little dirty, the floor had crumbs, but nothing gross. Approx. 5 mins later a girl popped out of the back wearing a T-shirt, called my name (yes - there was still no other customer in the store) handed me a box, and didn't say anything else. I asked her for a bag so I wouldn't lose my mochi donuts as I dodged traffic on AH back to my car. She bagged up my box and handed it to me. There was no hello, no thank you, no have a good day, not a sound except for my name. For about $40 a DOZEN (after tax), I would have expected some sort of customer service. I really hope this was a one off, not the normal for business. The donuts were good. They were fresh and chewy. The flavors popped and were a nice treat. However, for the cost and lack of customer care, I'm going to keep looking for another mochidonut location. At almost $4 for a donut, come out and say HI! The owner needs to do better at training employees.

This has been my routine for decades, yet I just realized that I had never actually left a rating for it. What makes this bakery especially appealing is its soft, airy, and smooth bread and buns, which are handmade using ingredients sourced directly from Japan. My personal favorite is the red bean bun. While my sister loves their sandwiches and milk bread, which has an incredibly soft, fluffy, and moist texture. All of their bread and buns are made fresh daily. Many years ago, they even allowed their staff to take home any unsold sandwiches and bread at the end of the day! With increasing competition from newer Korean and Taiwanese bakeries, I hope Pastry House Hippo continues to stay competitive. As a self-serve bakery, it would be nice if the buns were individually wrapped, something many other bakeries already do, to help prevent contamination from careless customers. My most recent visit was on the second day of the new year, and I was happy to see the shop bustling with customers. I hope this little bakery continues to thrive for many years to come.
