If you’re going to go to Stan’s donuts, go to this location. Beautiful inside and out.
I would suggest to not get standard donuts. Paying three dollars for a standard donut that you can get at Dunkin for half the price doesn’t make sense.
Get the doughboy or the specialty donuts. Those are worth trying for sure.
Google maps directions might mess you up getting here. This store is above on Grand Avenue and not on the street below.
Great options available even late in the morning. Plenty of seating inside with fun decor and a bit of an old-time industrial vibe. Helpful staff. Dough was tasty, obviously made by hand and fresh. Cream filling was not overpoweringly sweet, which was a welcome detail. It was a bit difficult to find the right door, since it shares a building with Labriola and their outdoor seating obscures Stan’s windows. Just walk down to the end and it’s there.
My first visit to Chicago was in February, and I stopped by Stan’s for a quick breakfast treat. Throughly enjoyed it! Quick service and delicious. I got a blueberry old fashioned donut and a hot coffee, and I was out the door in about 15 minutes during a very busy time. I still dream of that donut LOL. I would definitely recommend and will definitely return next time I’m in town!
The guy working on coffee bar is super helpful, kind and friendly. The coffee was tasty. Prices are reasonable
Excellent doughnuts and coffee. Gets pretty busy but staff will come out and take orders in the line if it backs up too much. Not a ton of seating available, be prepared to stand or take your food with you.
Visited back-to-back days while visiting Chicago. Service was always fantastic, even early in the morning. Coffee hit the spot and the fresh and delicious.
Highly recommend this place. The guy working that day was super friendly. Did you know you can get a donut cake? Simply amazing!! Donuts come in 6 pack boxes, and super cute, and great flavors. I had the gluten free blue berry, and honestly I was wondering if I was tricked. Simply the best gluten free donut I’ve ever had. Great staff, great donuts. Highly recommended
Love Stan’s, have been coming to this location for many years. I was super excited to see they brought back my favourite lemon curd filled croissant donut. Also had a blueberry cream cheese pocket, which was delicious too. Service is great at this location. I will be back for another lemon curd donut soon for sure.
Such a cute little spot and the donuts were AMAZING! I was able to get an assorted box with the different style of donuts and they were absolutely incredible. The person who helped me was really informative and guided me towards their favorites! I would come again!!
We came here to try Le Stan Croissant donut. I didn’t know there would be cream custard filling inside but I was relieved to find out that it was not too sweet like most desserts are. You could see the croissant layers on the outside as well as near the center of the donut (after eating half of it). I wouldn’t say that the layers are that separated and / or soft like a croissant but I’m glad I got to try it. I would also prefer to have fewer grains of sugar dusted on the donut. Most importantly, it is approved by my French boyfriend who loves eating chicken breasts and zucchini, “*nodding* It’s pretty good!”
We also got the Blueberry Cream Cheese Pocket and Chocolate Long John. The filling inside the cream cheese pocket tastes just like the croissant donut and the blueberry jam was very fragrant although a tad sweet for me. The outside is glazed and the overall taste was great. The Chocolate Long John reminded us of an éclair. Like the other donuts we got, the chocolate was not overly sweet and the donuts were so big that they felt like bread. The Stan’s House Blend coffee was standard.
My favorite part of this place is the pink storefront!💗
