Believe the hype. All the donuts are fresh, delicious, and bursting with sweetness. Coffee and tea options are top notch as well. Beware the glazed pretzel twists; they are enormous!

The classic dough is twisted together with cinnamon and coated with a traditional light glaze. Stan’s has plenty of seating to enjoy your sweet treats and the biggest selection of doughnut options. Read more

Donuts! So yummy! I had a crazy good Nutella and banana filled donut w chocolate frosting. Everything looks amazing and it's in a very cute neighborhood and easy to get to since it's off the blue line

Fantastic donuts. The Lemon Pistachio Old Fashioned and the Buttercream Bismark are my favorites. This place is the only one that rivals Doughtnut Vault for me. They also partner with Popular Pays.

You NEED the Biscoff Banana Donut - it is out of this world! Graham cracker/cinnamon/peanut butter filling AND fresh bananas - need I say more? Perfect balance of savory and sweet.

Since 1963, Stan's Donuts has been the go to place in Los Angeles, California for donuts and now Chicagoans can enjoy them in Wicker Park, Streeterville, Lakeview, the South Loop and Oakbrook Center!

Lots of options, buy a variety and share with friends. The old fashioned is a solid choice. Get one to go and enjoy it while waiting for the blue el or in line at the Violet Hour!

Biscoff banana pocket is delicious. It has real banana slices in there, all caramelized and perfect. Totally worth the $$ and kcals
Maike PlotnikApril 16, 2016
A classical glazed one is always a good idea, otherwise: Apple fritter or cinnamon roll! Glazed and infused hasn't survived this store ;)

A popular donut & coffee cafe in Wicker Park. Conveniently right off the Damen train stop, however difficult to find parking if your driving. Recommend Peanut Butter Pocket and the Nutella Pocket.

It's a little pricey, but the donuts and pastries are to die for. They are huge and all too good. It's popular, so don't be surprised by a short wait.
Jay JoseAugust 17, 2014
Stan's donuts is amazing! They can be a bit pricey but it's totally worth it! The gelatos are are really good too!
Shaquoia LanierFebruary 24, 2017
The glazed donut is my all time favorite. It's always soft and fresh. The icing is great. Love it!
Jenna KowalczykJanuary 24, 2015
The Pistachio Lemon Old Fashioned was perfect. And I'm not even that big on lemon.
S SeverinJanuary 14, 2016
Omg the Nutella banana pocket is out of this world! Super friendly and quick service. Hard to decide on just one. Can't wait to go back.
P HFebruary 4, 2017
Lemon pistachio old fashioned is probably my favorite donut of all donuts. It's hard to ever try anything else here!

Old fashioned doughnuts !! All of them are great. Try the lemon curd If it's available

Damen Blue Line: The trouble with stopping into Stan’s Donuts is that you might find yourself hemming and hawing over what to get. We’ll make it simple: Biscoff banana pocket. Read more

Very friendly workers ! Cute place to chit chat , donuts a little pricey but very good ! Their Sammie's (donut sandwich w/ gelato) are incredible ! 👌

I highly recommend getting a peanut butter and banana pocket with a cold chocolate milk. These doughnuts are effing amazing! Tell your friends!
Patrick McDonaghApril 9, 2016
Donuts are delicious. Try the ones stuffed with Nutella and bananas. Can't go wrong with the glazed old fashioned either.
Hamid Alan9aryFebruary 19, 2018
Donuts r good but wasn’t happy with the cappuccino. Always a new flavor here.. but I like any 🍩 with choclate
Tiffany WongJuly 26, 2016
biscoff pockets are a must, even more than their old-fashioned (go to firecakes instead). i like their toffee donut too.
Ray HartjenOctober 25, 2015
Great, fresh donuts. Try the old fashions, with special seasonal flavors like pumpkin. A nice cappuccino too.
Virginie LiaoJanuary 31, 2016
They serve Dark Matter coffee and costs only $1 with any donut purchase. I wouldn't wait in a long line for their donuts though.

Lemon pistachio!! If you know donuts here in Chicago... the maple bacon long john here is not as great as glazed & infused.
Paul 🐙 CrewdsonJune 1, 2018
Very limited seating, but amazing selection. Well worth the trip. 2nd only to Doughnut Plant in NYC.
Melissa AuMarch 8, 2016
Their stuffed nutella donut is the bomb as well as their other donuts. The coffee they serve is intelligentsia which is decent.
cami j.July 28, 2017
of all the chicago donuts (donut vault, do rite, firecakes) these are my least favorite. but still delicious-especially the old fashioned.

One of my favorite places to get a snack. The donuts are exceptional. Especially the Nutella Pocket. Get it.
Echo TongFebruary 21, 2017
The donut store is near my campus. It is a little more expensive than Donkin Donut, but it is really good. the only thing I don't like is, it is too sweet.
Jan W.April 10, 2015
Wow, these donuts are delicious. Try the cinnamon pretzels and and Intelligentsia coffee.

So good! Peanut Butter Chocolate Pockets are sooo delicious!
Chris LeonJune 30, 2015
Really great donut shop.. Great customer service and really good donuts.. Perfect for company parties.

This place is open all day so when any of the other pop up donut places run out, this place is a good alternative.

The best donut experience you'll ever have.
Tyler SanderfordJune 21, 2015
Great donuts. But they REALLY need something salty besides pretzels. how about Sausage Kolaches!!!
David HoltzAugust 6, 2016
The cinnamon sugar pretzel was a highlight, although the donuts were also good!
Tim M.September 8, 2014
Chocolate old fashioned donut was amazing! Strawberry ice cream was rich, but tasty.
Kirill KukuruzaMarch 2, 2016

Apple fritter and cinnamon roll are both really good, but the best is the peanut butter filled chocolate!
Erin RoyalsMay 27, 2015
If you can ever get donuts hot from the fryer, do it. Truly a transcendental experience.
Andrew WhiteFebruary 24, 2015
Great local donut and coffeeshop with decent seating in an area where space is limited
Laura CaputoFebruary 18, 2014
