    Inside. Donut options.
    Ci H.

    My first time here. Was in the area & craving a donut & trusty yelp lead me here. Food: Dounuts delicious. Got the yeast with chocolate icing & the French cruller. The only thing I didn't like was that the chocolate icing is just sugar, no chocolate & the icing on the cruller were both too sweet. However, I am mostly sugar free on the weekdays so perhaps it's just me. Regardless, I will be back to try another variety without the icing on it. Service: Great. The lady was very sweet & efficient. Ambiance: It's a take out place. It's clean & the displays were great. See pics.

    Buttermilk, which is heavy as a hockey puck!!

    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.

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

    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.

Stop going to the chain coffee joints and try a small place that needs us. I preordered a little leas than $100 worth of cakes, pies, and pastries so I grabbed some of the cookies to make it $100. The butter cookies are $33 a lb. Ouch! As soon as you take a bite they fall apart and crumble everywhere. The kids didn't like the taste and didn't eat any of them, a waste of $12. No prices anywhere other than the boxed goods or coffee signs. 4% fee for using a credit card which I get, but have it posted better. Couple small signs I caught over by the fresh stuff saying price tags reflect cash price, but yet didn't see prices anywhere other than on shelves by boxed stuff. Have prices posted. French silk pie was very thick and not very chocolaty. No one really cared for it, def would not get again. I looked back at receipt after I left and see a random charge for "open retail" for $3.12, no clue what that is. So was over charged for something I didn't get.

    I have been going to Deerfields Bakery for decades; I just realized that it is not "Deerfield" or…read more"Deerfield's", but "Deerfields". Before we fell in love with the mousse cakes of another bakery that's just minutes from home, we used to order most of our birthday cakes from Deerfields, and picked up at the location in Deerfield. In addition to cakes, they specialize in a full line of baked goods, including pastries, cookies, cupcakes, pies, danishes, donuts, muffins, bagels, and more. Recently, I needed to order a small 4" cake for the first time ever, since all of us didn't want a large cake, even a 6" cake would be too much, because I am usually the one to finish all the cake leftovers. Also, there were only about 3 days for the bakery to make the cake, our other bakery needs 7 days, and probably would not make a 4" cake. I knew that Deerfields could do it in 48 hours. I was pleased that I could order on their website, although their choices for 4" cakes were very limited. I picked a velvet cake with cream cheese filling and buttercream frosting ($30.95). However, it has 4 layers and serves 6-8, we would still have leftovers. This time, I chose to pick up at the Deerfields in Buffalo Grove, where I had visited a couple of times, and I like this location much better than the one in Deerfield. It is like a storybook bakery to me! The bakery is picture perfect inside and out, visually appealing with lots of vibrant colors and beautiful displays. When I visited, the spacious bakery was festively decorated, which was quite charming. There's also a café inside, with some tables on the first floor, and the entire cozy second floor dedicated to café dining. The café serves breakfast and lunch Wednesday through Sunday. Like many other bakeries, Deerfields is closed on Mondays. On this weekday when I came around noon, the bakery was bustling. I would give this experience 5 stars for both the cake we ordered and the excellent service we received, especially from Greg, who greeted me as soon as I walked in. The customer service team had emailed me suggestions for decorating the small cake, and I replied with my specific requirements. However, it seemed that my reply had not been read. I needed the center of the top filled with more roses so the design would not look like a wreath. In the future, I will follow up with a phone call to confirm the details. One staff member from the bake room (Brianca?) came out and explained that it could be done, but I would need to wait an hour because all the bakers had just gone on break. I agreed and said I would return to pick it up. Just as I was about to leave, Greg came out from the bake room with the good news that a baker was available to do it right away. In the end, I only spent about 10 to 15 minutes waiting, which I used to take photos around the shop. The cake turned out beautiful and delicious, moist and velvety. I myself didn't care that much for the thick buttercream frosting, but the cream cheese filling was quite good. Since we had the cake after a big dinner, we all opted for small pieces. However, all of us didn't mind eating leftover cakes the next day. When we crave for a more traditional cake in the future, we will definitely return to Deerfields again!

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!

My wife and I had always wanted to visit them ever since then and we finally did after about 10 months. The place was small and charming with lots of neeat chocolate creations, as one would expect. We sampled a couple different chocolate pieces and as far as I can tell, they were good. I say that only because I'm not a huge chocolate person, and I don't have a huge gauge on what's good vs great. Since our main purpose of the visit was for donuts, we went ahead and orderes half dozen "premium" donuts. Turns out, the box that was gifted to us was a custom mix of their premium selections, which are fancier donut creations that require a bit more finesse and efforts for them to create. Apparently, you need to order ahead if you want to have a good mix of a dozen, which we didn't know. So we ended up picking from the available ones. They were still a good variety. I don't actively seek out donuts, but if I craved one, I'd definitely seek out Morkes.

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.
