Reviews for Doughnut Vault in Chicago, IL
Delicious, fresh donuts! Glazed was HUGE. Love that they have daily specials (I tried the Chai Hazelnut Old Fashioned). The... worker was also incredibly nice, and the shop itself is very cute and quaint. Would recommend Read more
Took a long bike route just to reach the store on time. Here's a tip: if the store is open between 12-1 and has doughnuts... remaining, you'll get 50% discount on them. That made my day. Recommended flavors: buttermilk, chocolate. Not so recommended:pistachio (has aftertaste). Not my taste: Lemon poppy seed- If you're into a strong lemony taste go for it .. I like the oldfashioned ones most. I like how the place is small inside- has a homey vibe but also would like it if it were a bit bigger toohaha. Read more
Need to come back here to get the full experience! Not a lot of donuts available by the time I came in at 12 but doable. The... staff were more than helpful and delighted that I came in though. The donuts are big here as in one donut is bigger than thesize of my palm. Paid over $16 for the box of donuts that I had. Really likened their donuts. Lots of glazing. Best tip from thestaff member is to order online in order to ensure you get what you wanted. EDIT: Revisited back here September 11 on a Sundaymorning. Was really glad that I came in early because as soon as I left, their was a line already forming out the door. Thedonuts come in all shapes and sizes. One thing to note is they go by how much they can fit in a box not by donut. That said, Ispent over $31 for what was in the box. Staff was really nice and donuts were really sweet. Very sweet.

Such a cute, beautiful shop, that you can totally miss if you don't know its there. Tucked away by the river, just a tiny window... in a wall, they offer a small menu of delicious donuts. Traditional cake donuts with a glaze, and seasonal jelly filled donutsthat rotate out. Pick up a donut with a coffee and be sure to peek inside to see the tiny hallway that is the entire shop.

This is a very unique and characteristic place. The outside is fun to look and very authentic. It brings you back in the past... and it makes you feel like you are getting Donuts & Coffee in the way your grandparents used to do. Quality is very good and allthe 4 donuts I had were excellent. Even the simple drip coffee was marrying perfectly with the sweetness of the donuts. Theinside is for sure authentic because the space is very limited (few square feet) and it allows you only to order what you wantand quickly leave. I can imagine that this could be something creating discomfort for many, but from the other side I lovedbecause I never experienced this anywhere else Read more
Just take a look at those huge donuts! The jelly donut is delicious, not those kinds of donuts you took three bites still... nothing. The jelly’s sour flavor mixed with the icing’ sweet, perfect balance! All those old fashion donuts are good butnothing special. They also gave me two little ones for free, what a sweet morning!

Very tasty with sweet service. The cold brew was good. Will definitely come back. ?? WARNING: I highly recommend ordering one... doughnut per person to start. You're going to want 2+. Don't try it! The doughnuts are too big and delicious. It will hurt. Read more
Ordered these on doordash and these are the best donuts I’ve ever had. So fresh soft and the flavors are amazing. We had the... specialty Mexican hot chocolate cake doughnut and it tasted exactly like an abuelita hot chocolate with a tiny spice to it. Theoriginal vanilla donut is so fluffy and soft and huge!!! I can’t wait to try the rest of them! I usually never write reviewsand I had to because the ones I tried were just too good. Def will order again. Read more
