Firecakes Donuts

Stopped by for a quick dessert when visiting Chicago. I came for donuts, but they also have coffee and ice cream. There's a glass case of about 20 ready made donuts. Person working the counter was very friendly and helpful. All to donuts looked great, but finally decided on the Churro dount and the Pistachio. There's a nice small sitting area right outside to enjoy the donuts. Donuts tasted amazing. Very fresh, soft, and not overly sweet. I enjoy when you can taste the actual donut for what it is and not just a bunch of sugar or toppings. I wish I had more time or was hungrier as would've ordered more donuts.

You can't leave Chicago without visiting Firecakes Donuts! My world was opened to a new level of birthday celebration tasting their donut ice cream sandwich. Now I see why Dunkin Donuts and Baskin Robins teamed up! But even they can't compete with the handmade deliciousness of these donuts. Do sign up for their rewards program if donuts are your guilty pleasure.

Great donuts and great coffee. Awesome way to start the day. The store is small and only has room to order and pick up, but there is some outdoor seating. Haven't tried the ice cream yet, which they're known for, so I'll provide an update when I do!

I stopped in here after many years of loving this place in college and it smelled as good as I remembered in there! I ordered the red velvet, Boston cream, vanilla iced and espresso cream. The espresso cream is my longtime love and absolute favorite! The boston cream was also delicious! The frosting on the red velvet was perfect, but the doughnut itself, like the vanilla iced, was kind of stale. Unfortunately the vanilla was inedible, so maybe they should be stored a little differently so they stay fresh even though the presentation is very aesthetically pleasing!
