It is one of those places where once you go there you will ask yourself how did I go my whole life not knowing about this?!.The donuts are always fresh and great. The owners are great too, very friendly.The prices are also very good. I have never had a donut here that was not good.They dont focus on designer donuts with bacon and other off the wall toppings. They do the classics perfected.
Nothing like waking up for fresh made Dunk Donuts. Small hole in the wall bakery is open for dine-in and carry out. So many great flavors to choose from. Their signature Blueberry sells out quickly. Tried the long johns, glazed and double chocolates. Sweet tooths beware... the birthday cake sprinkle is frosted and not iced. Very fresh, airy and not greasy. A must stop if in the area.
I thought I had reviewed this place before but I guess not! Here we go!!!Please visit & support this little local gem of a shop before it goes extinct!You simply MUST stop in here if you’re in the area or surrounding area. It is an old-fashioned style doughnut shop.The owner, Chang, is the sweetest person you’ll ever meet!!! I’ve been going to this place on & off (cause ya can’t live on doughnuts! 🤤 Lol) for over 20 years & my parents (who still live in Melrose Park) would get us doughnuts from there often on the weekends…. so our family has been going here for ages! 😂Anyhow, Chang always gave us free doughnuts with every dozen so a dozen in her shop equals 17!!!!Though Covid times have been hard and most times nowadays you’ll only get your 12-dozen! It’s okay!Please visit! You will love the doughnuts! But go early for best selection (opens 4a) & it’s CASH ONLY.Thanks for readingUpdated today 09/07/2021 to include some pictures though they’re not the best!
This place reminds me of old fashioned back in the day sweet goodness. They have a wide variety of doughnuts. They are really good. I discovered this place by accident and was pleasantly surprised by what I found. There are other popular donut places around in Suburban neighborhoods but I found THIS one to be the best by far. They are always consistent and delicious. I cant pick a favorite. They have THEE best toasted coconut. The donuts are flavor and delicious. Youre sure to find a favorite. I just recommend getting there early as once they sell out, they dont make more. I was informed that they start baking at 4am!!!
My to donut place for 20 years. My coworkers love the apple fritters. Me too.
This place has the best donuts in the western suburbs. I tried various donuts and they were all excellent. I cant see myself going back to Dunkin Donuts.
Very little filling in all the jelly type donuts we bought. Cake doughnuts are better than their yeast ones. We arrived around 8:25am and they were out of the apple fritters and blueberry donuts so get there even earlier than that if you want more variety to choose from.
One of the dirtiest donuts in Chicago. By dirty, I mean you will feel your heart lub-dubbing with the weight of oleoaginous blood when you finish this unctuous treat. I have lived in Chicago long enough to say I love em with a cup of coffee, but I would say buy your coffee elsewhere. Dont try to eat them after a day, unless your looking to add to your depression.The ladies who work there are the real treasure of the business.
Wow.....the coconut donuts and apple fritters are sooooo good.
Very good donuts and coffee, the cashier was really nice and kind ☺️. We were able to dine in, the donuts were fresh and delicious and so was the coffee. Definitely going back!
The donuts were so soft, and the staff was extra friendly!
Ive been going there sine my teen yrs the donuts still taste as good as my teen yrs and still going today
The love the staff there and the doughnuts...
Great tasting donuts! They take cash only. Staff is not as friendly as owner. They have no glass covering all the donuts and flies can stand in them.
Delicious donuts, cash only though so beware and take some cash.
The donuts were amazing! Nice and light dough blew my expectations
Loved this place for 40 years
The donuts are all amazing and the owner was very nice and gave us a few extra when we left a tip!
I have been coming here for years!!!!!!!!! My family for over 30 years! We only come here all the way from duapge county,its that dang good🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
O. M. G.Having gone to Dunkin for so many years, I had forgotten what a fresh, house-made doughnut was like. And altho I no longer work in the area, its totally worth the drive And the calories to come out to MP for their raised and cake doughnuts. Coffees damn good too! Go to Dunk early before someone snaps up the last two Blueberry cake donuts ( like the guy in front of me just did) .Good stuff. Good value too !
Great place. Local gem. Get there early to have the best selection.
Awesome donuts and bfast sanwiches
A sweet spot in Melrose. Old school charm and service. Affordable prices and delicious butter cream frosted cake donuts, plus great apple fritters, bear claws and cinnamon rolls.
As ugly as this place is, they have the BEST donuts. I’m talking just old school iced donuts that take you back to your childhood
Fresh little bakery with great donuts and pastries. My favorite are the cake donuts and long johns with the cream topping and sprinkles. Its more like Twinkie filling than frosting. Get there early because they do sell fast!
Outstanding donuts and very reasonable pricing. Dunk definitely has the small business atmosphere and the staff is friendly and takes great care in their work. Ive tried other bakeries and donut shops in the Forest Park/Melrose Park area and this is my pick for best in the area.
The owner is very nice and she makes really good donuts and her coffee is awesome.
The BEST donuts in the west Chicago suburbs!
Amazing donuts, amazing service, super nice lady, my kids and I new fav spot...
Great donuts! You wont be disappointed.
Dunk Donuts is the best donut place I’ve ever been to and for multiple reasons. The owner is a very lovely woman and is overall too kind, which is very hard to find in the business industry. In addition to that, their doughnuts are superbly delicious, in fact the best I’ve ever had! On top of that, the prices are outstandingly low. Overall, it is the best donut place I’ve ever been to, and I can personally assure you that if you ever go there, which you should, you would also think that it is the best donut shop you’ve ever been to!
I love eating their coconut donuts.
Best doughnuts around. Owner and staff are always friendly, CLEAN and cordial. My family is always enjoying the coconut and chocolate long johns, the barbarian cream chocolate or sugar dusty ones. Everything in here is delicious
The donuts where great. She gave me 2 free just because. What a great place to have a cup of joe and a donut. Come check it out!
So yummy 😋
Best donuts super friendly
I have been coming to Dunk Donuts since I was in grade school and Im 73 years old. The owners have changed, but the recipes have stayed the same.These are the real deal donuts. You dont see flavors like salmon or swiss chard! There are not a dozen squirt bottles with jellies, almond paste and passion fruit. There are fabulous donuts that dont need to be tinkered with to be the best.
Best donuts around!
Great donuts, excellent service!
I just experienced excellent customer service at Dunk Donuts! I will definitely return and recommend their bakery
Best old school donuts in Chicago. If youre going to eat a donut, make it worth the carbs.
After reading other stellar reviews, I decided to check it out.1. THE DONUTS ARE AMAZING!!! I went on a Wednesday morning around 8am and they are super fresh and delicious.2. Price point is extremely reasonable especially considering the quality of the donuts. FYI- it is cash only.3. I expected there to be a sweet lady behind the counter based on other reviews, but I was still blown away. I had my infant son with me in his car seat and the sweet lady walked my donuts out to my car with me in the 25 DEGREE COLD so I didnt have to leave my son in the car alone. I didnt ask for help, but she noticed that I didnt have an extra hand, so she offered and even though I declined (who expects this kind of service at a donut shop?!), she (politely) insisted, and I was incredibly grateful.
I always stopped and got donuts on my way back from hosp.. I loved them.. We moved in 2007 out of state and I just saw they are still open. I went there for at least 3 decades & my friends. The BEST EVER.
The apple fritters are Amazing!!
I havent even tried the donuts yet but came here to give 5 stars for the sweet lady behind the counter. She made my Sunday! Even if the donuts arent the best around I will be back because if her. Based on how they look tho Im betting the donuts will be delicious.
Freshly made, very good.
Selection was limited when I visited, but taste is on point. Soft, pillowy donuts, and the Bavarian cream was great
If you are looking for authentic homemade donuts this is a sweet spot for fresh crispy on outside and warm once you bite into them donuts and pastries. The staff is helpful and accommodating. I had ordered a dozen donuts and received 2 free. Also, I ordered a iced coffee that was right on point. This little bakery has a counter where you and a friend can sit and chat all the while enjoying goodness. Love this place .
I have loved this place since I was a kid. Over 60 years ago. My favorite is the buttermilk donut. And it still tastes great.
Best donuts around period! The staff and owner are so nice and friendly they always throw in a couple extra if you order a dozen. Better than any bakery around and as a bonus those mornings you need a bacon egg croissant, they will whip one up for you!
Great donuts at a good price, not like some other places with a similar name.
Jane is so nice and the shop is Quaint, clean with an old fashioned vibe! THEY ARE THE BEST DONUTS EVER!
Wonderful service great atmosphere. Friendly people. If u like older diner service. Youll love this place
Still fresh donuts....
Best donuts everytime!!
Super friendly owner!
Absolutely the best place to go for Cherry and Apple turnovers. When I go, I all they have and take them home and to work. Love the coffee here. Some ppl sit at the counter and have their breakfast and drink coffee. Go see Jade, shes a petite woman that is the best!!!
This is my favorite donut shop - by far. Great donuts. Everyone I have given these donuts to loves them. When I bring in these donuts, everyone is happy.Additionally, the staff are always friendly and helpful.Try them!
Fresh beautiful donuts made with love. The woman who served us was so kind and friendly too. Will definitely come back, wonderful experience.
Love this place. They always have great service plus you always get extra free donuts with your purchase.
Uniquely delicious donuts. When you walk in, you may wonder if you at the right spot, its a whole in the wall kind of place with some delicious donuts! Service is relatively slow if there are more than a couple customers but it adds to the charm.
Awesome donuts! 👌
This is the best donut shop! They have super reasonable prices for fresh made delicious donuts. Their custard filled donuts are my favorite, but every donut Ive had from here is really good. Dont forget your cash because this is a cash only shop.
Dunk donuts beats any over priced stans or fire cake donuts ! The donuts are fresh and delicious. They know how to treat the customers right!
The best homemade donuts at excellent prices with good coffee and a selection of sodas and drinks. In my opinion, better than dunkin donuts if your looking for better donuts. Small family owned. Try them out and leave them a tip. I highly recommend you try dunk donuts.
Service is great, donuts are always fresh and delicious. Surely miss them during this time.
I grew up in Melrose park, worked there when I was 18, the owner was bill Murphy at that time, great donuts
The best Fresh made Donuts not factory made like Duncan but its cash only no credit or debit.
The best donuts that I have ever had.
I love this asian woman that makes the greasiest tastiest donuts from scratch! this is the place! Old fashioned and not too far away!
Dunk Donuts is a local treasure! I grew up with 24-hour donut shops, and Dunk is still open most of the time (I think they close for a few hours Sunday night). Their donuts are wonderful. I especially love the buttermilk ones and the crullers. The apple fritters, when you can get them, easily feed two. Just writing the words, apple fritters, makes me want to go buy some right now - theyre that delicious.One thing I find surprising is that the long frosted donuts dont have any kind of filling - theyre just a big donut. Not that theres anything wrong with a big donut; just know that they arent filled.
No place better!!! Yummy and pleasant!
I love this place everythings good even the cappuccino
Great owner, and the best donuts ive ever had.. took me a minute to get over no creme filled donuts, but the creme is on top - who cares! coconut creme, creme sprinkles, raspberry, strawberry, all delicious
I love it because its a blessing in a treat all in one and on top of that its better than Krispy Kremes and the little old sweetheart lady cant be beat😍😋
Best Donuts in the Western Burbs
So soft, and tasty! Best donuts hands down!!
Love these donuts and the ladies who work there are fantastic.
This is my go to place for donuts! Absolutely delicious!
This is my fourth time coming to get a donut, and they are closed. Ive come in the morning, afternoon and evening. Google says they are 24 hours. Are they no longer in business? I live really far south to keep making blank missions. I hope the owner or someone would reply to this inquiry.
Scrumptiously delicious donuts. And the lady who was helping me was super sweet and nice. Would definitely recommend and go again!!
Best donuts ever, super nice people too!
Ma and pa donut shop. Love their donuts
Do ur self a favor and just dont.
I Love the Donuts that tastes like Real Donuts and Not Air!!
Service was just OK. Person at the counter was on a personal call. The product I purchased was nice and soft and fresh. However, it lacked flavor
Best donuts in Chicagoland. Enough said.
Fresh and fabulously delicious and decadent
Just the best!
Best donuts best breakfast sandwiches i drive 45 min just to eat here so i recomend it 100 percent love that tye owner Shane is always there and always makes sure that the quality of food and service is amazing. Sausage egg and chs on a croissant is my fav.
Old school donut shop!
