Omg their chocolate glaze and old fashioned glaze donuts. Are the bomb. They definitely melt in your mouth.

I had the Big glazed donut before, very tasty. This place is open 24/7 and has pretty good donuts. My family also enjoyed them. Hopefully next time I go I can try more. read more

Wow what a donut! Fresh and oh so big!!! The huge chocolate covered donut blew my mind. It is so much donut but you cannot stop eating. This is now a favorite stop on the weekend! read more

Dat Donut Didn't Do-it for me. I only tried/purchased a .97 glazed and it was a tad tOO dOughy and sweet for my liking. I'm not ruling out eating another though, if I happened to be in the area, I might stop by to get a Dat....but, I wouldn't go out of my way to get w/Dat, nope. I'm sticking w/Dunk (not Dunkin). You can watch the donut maker man make the Dat donuts, if you'd like.... read more

DAT DONUT was freaking huge. I mean, huge. This location is not in the greatest of places, though you will feel entirely safe... I would not go weekly, but I would certainly make the trek for the donut lover in my life now and again. Fun "true-Chicago" type of place. read more

How could not love a donut place that's open 24 hours!! I've been coming here since I was kid and to me nothing has changed. The pineapple and strawberry donuts are the best. The customer service can be kinda bad . But you will def get over it that's how EXCELLENT the donuts are . You would think they would be happy selling the most delicious donuts ever. If you are in the area or if you are coming out your way it's definitely worth it!!! read more

Dat Donut - Pineapple , Strawberry and Chocolate Donuts!! - Donuts Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

dat donut produces fresh and tasty donuts for incredibly reasonable prices! the first time i went to dat donut, we went late at night, maybe around 11, and although they didn't have much of a selection yet, they were still making donuts fresh. we got an apple fritter that was at least 12 inches in diameter for 3 dollars. it was insane. the fritter was chockfull of apples and cinnamon and was enough to split between four people! i imagine if i brought it home and heated it up, it would've been transcendental; however, it was still so tasty and great to share and eat on the bus. the next time i went to dat donut, i picked up 36 donuts, and they were all delicious and HUGE! my personal favorite is the glazed as it's fluffy and subtly sweet. i think that these donuts are the tastiest, freshest, and cheapest in chicago and would recommend dat donut to anyone looking to fix a sugar craving! read more

Dat Donut - every time is donut time - Donuts Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Do you want a donut the size of your head? WHY WOULDN'T YOU? Everyone has already rhapsodized on the virtues of the Big Dat, but I would also like to point out that it's kind of an awesome surprise for the uninitiated. Let's say your friend is having a bad day, and you're swinging by 82nd and Cottage, maybe you're in the neighborhood, who knows. What better way to brighten up someone's day by bringing them a party-sized circle of fried dough glazed in syrup and sugar? You can also get barbecue in effectively the same store. Writing all of this is making me kind of hungry. read more

I was doing a flu shot clinic around the corner, and saw this place. All I can say about this place is wow! The old fashioned is like krispy kreme but a lot better. The extra crisp outside with the moist inside. I cant say I've had a better donut. For you, if you like good donuts. Not for you, if you are diabetic (but even then it may be worth it). read more

Took me 2 days to eat the big dat! Donuts were great! Was adviced to call ahead if you are driving far, because the big dots se! ll out quickly Will definitely make the trip back out there! read more

Some of the best donuts, I've ever tasted. Hands down. Must be made with love and lard. All I know is with each bite, I make that mmmmHmm face, eyes closed and let the delicious flavors consume me. read more

Best donuts in town. Period. They also keep later business hours than most donut establishments.

Fresh - delicious and I wish they had a fat free,sugar free no calorie donuts. It is worth the sacrifice of my cheat day ! I usually get 1/2 a dozen or a dozen so that I can share so that I don't feel like I'am the only one that is eating these delish treats. I am drooling writing this - you will be hooked from the first bite. Just a extra 15 minutes on the treadmill has not killed anyone. definately a place to try if you are ever in the city! read more

Their donuts taste like grease from frying French fries. Otherwise, they are just OKAY

This place is located in a seedy area on the Southside of the city of Chicago however, these have to be soma of the BESTdonuts I've ever had! These donuts taste fresh and delicious. They have DJ'S beat hands down. Actually these donuts make you realize how processed DJ'S really are....smh. Nonetheless, this place is work the drive and trip from anywhere. Please try one of your donuts warm. (13 seconds in microwave ) read more

Dat Donut - A dozen of donuts for less than $ 10! ! ! Yummy - Donuts Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Amazing doughnuts! Not the best neighborhood either, but that didn't bother me from getting good food at reasonable prices! read more

We live in South Shore and like having another donut option besides chain locations. Love this place!

Who else is making homemade donuts on the South Side? They are the last man standing and they are keeping their weight up. They have a wide variety of flavors, hearty textures great hefty sizes and not to mention the hat sized donut they sell to share. I really love that this place is still here. read more

The donuts were so delicious, soft and sweet. Didn't get to try the large donut however I will return for it!!! Great and friendly service.

I first saw this in a Thrillest article, and once I saw a picture of the huge donut, I knew I just had to go here. My friends and I headed over to the Chatham neighborhood at around 11:30 on a Friday night. Were we concerned? Yes. Were we hoping nothing that we were gonna make it in and out safely? Yes. We got to the corner of 83rd and Cottage Grove just fine. It's a well lit place, and there was a CPD parked in the vicinity of the shop. We all went down the car and headed. I love how they use a revolving window to give you your donuts! The woman handling the sales was really nice, and I wouldn't doubt if she was wondering why, at that time of the night, came in to buy donuts. Although there was the Big Dat, they had several kinds of the regular sized treats. I got the glazed yeast, glazed butter milk, chocolate glazed, toasted coconut, and strawberry. I also got a bow tie, with is pretty much the same thing as a glazed yeast but the dough was shaped into a fancy looking bow. These doughnuts are DELICIOUS. Not sure how long they've been out at that moment, but they were nice and soft, yum. I wouldn't mind going down here again, to be honest! read more

Nice Big Donuts; this is the place to go when you want a Donut any hour of the night or morning. Thanks for that early rush

The donuts were delicious and fluffy. It just sucks that we went and the first thing that happens is we are confronted by junkies. Asking for money right outside the place. read more

My favorite donut spot. My favorite donuts are pineapple, caramel and traditional glaze. I go a few times a month. Great customer service.

Hands down some of the best donuts in the city and I believe open 24 hours. They are a must try!

The donuts I got tasted good and I got 3 of them plus an apple juice for $5. Notes: 1) They require an ID if you pay with a debit or credit card... And a $3 minimum purchase. 2) As another reviewer stated, they protect their donuts with a passion and what is probably bulletproof glass. 3) They have parking for customers. read more

I've always love Dat Donuts the best Donuts on the SOUTH SIDE OF CHICAGO thanks for staying in the neiborhood your the best!!

Love them don't eat sweets much, but when I do I get my jumbo glazed donuts yea! They're wonderful... I would refer if they want fresh tasty donuts come here... read more

I've been to just about every donut shop in Chicago, but Dat's has to best hands down.!

You can either pay $3 for a trendy, sickeningly sweet donut in Chicago proper, or head to the Chatham area to get perfectly done old school donuts for a fraction of the price. Now listen to me. There is a 9 inch diameter monster donut called the "Big Dst" that comes chocolate frosted or glazed. This is the best donut I have ever eaten and I have eaten far too many. Get serious about donuts and DAT is where it's AT. read more

Dat has one of the best cake doughnuts I've ever had. I tried 5 doughnuts in total and most were exactly what I ordered. Their old fashion tasted way off. It tasted like they had heated the oil way too high and it had that deep bitter burned fry oil taste. Everyone has a bad day, I'll be back! read more

Out of all of the donut shops i have been to in this new millennium in Chicago to date,i still think their the best donut shop and this is why.I have never seen flies,fleas,nats,and pests literally touching and contaminating their old-fashioned,but infinitely delicious donuts.To get a 5 star rating from me,all they got to do is come out with more varieties and flavors for their nice and juicy donut collection.Their employees are beautiful women who give good customer service sans the stank attitudes that the area of this location is demonized or stereotyped for. read more

Excellent donuts! Good customer service, and you don't have a long wait.

The best donut's I have ever had. This place is better than Krispy Kreme. I say this because several of Krispy Kreme's donuts are too sweet. The chocolate, caramel and vanilla with sprinkles are literally an assault on the taste buds in my opinion. Dat Donut however is damn near perfect. Each bite is scrumptious. My favorites are lemon cake, vanilla cake, blueberry and pineapple. Each pastry is hand made from scratch and is guaranteed to touch the very bottom of your heart. I know that's uber sappy but this place is a Chicago favorite and deserves the praise. A word of caution, the donuts are only made a few times a day so if you get a donut that's been hanging around pop it in the microwave for 10 seconds and enjoy. The only reason this place did not receive five stars is because the staff is matrix bullet time slow, seriously hurry up with dat donut! read more

I know they were shown on the Cooking Channel but I think the quality from then till now has fallen. I tried several Glazed donuts and they were slightly undercooked. Lumpy, overly sugary, inconsistent. Maybe it was an off day for these guys but considering the wait time, dirty atmosphere and cruddy service I'll pass on this place and go to Dunkin. read more

Living in an area (windsor) that has only chain style donuts gets very boring. On a recent trip I had to stop here at Dat Donut and I am sure glad that I did. I pretty much got every style of donut that they had on the shelf at the time when we went. If you were to only get one it would have to be their apple fritter. My wife thought it was ridiculous that I wanted to order more than one because it was so large (larger than your head). After we quickly finished the one apple fritter in the car ride back downtown we scolded ourselves that we didn't get more. Finished off the rest of the donuts over the rest of the day. read more

So anyone that works for an internet company like me knows how much time we spend at our desks talking about what we need to eat lol. I had to fly out to Chicago for business the topic of munchies came up quick. Although we have crispy cream in CA I wasn't really crazy excited when the local team said we were going to get Dat Donuts. Okay! I now wish I lived in Chicago! I can't understand how anyone could make donuts taste sooooo good. So if you have a chance to experience this taste of heaven, do it!!! And, if you every visit our game site www.ultimatecoolgames.com just know that there is a huge chance that the brilliant minds that are working behind the scenes are sitting at desks with Dat Donuts and loving every bite! read more

Thank you DAT DONUTS!!! Outstanding donut holes made especially for the CHICAGO POLICE MEMORIAL FOUNDATION Cars & Cops Show on Sunday, 20 May 2018. The donuts were so delicious!!! Everyone raved about them BEST DONUTS EVER!!! read more

Plenty of parking, which is always a plus in Chicago. Good variety of donuts at great prices. Donuts were enjoyable. Customer service was horrible though. read more

I love this donut shop, they have a very selective menu. Try them you'll love them. My favorite are the giant yeast donuts big enough to share and the Carmel and lemon are great also. Try them for your self. read more

So for the first time in a looong time, I would like to try and write a serious and meaningful, somewhat useful review in at least more than one sentence, that's not completely batshit CRAZY like all my others. So here goes: She, she, she want it. I wanna give it to her. She know that, it's right here for her. I want to see you break it down, I'm ballin, I'm throwin money round... Does that sound familiar!!? It should. Think harder damnit. Donuts throwing money around, also known as making it rain?? as in, got a handful of stacks better grab an umbrella.. duuuh, I mean use your college education sweetheart. This shit was covered by sophomore year. Pay attention in your next life when you hit the college years. Jeezus. If it does ring a bell, that's what the donuts did to me toooo!!!!!!!! ........................................................................................................................................................................................... alright, alright It's from ayo technology but you know they weren't talking about no girl's body and screwin around with her.. please. What in the dildo do we have here??! Simple, nice and innocent midwestern donuts unlike my hometown of Portland's Voodoo cock and balls and ones shaped like blunts. Dirty! Shame. I bet if I poured holy water on the ones from voodoo, they'd sizzle.. if you know what I mean. You might have seen THOSE ones featured on No Reservations on the travel channel, the food network... or not. Places that shape their donuts into penis's with cream fillings need that sort of gimmick to disguise the fact that, LOL oh yeah!!! their's suck ass. These weren't disappointing at all. They are so soft and delicious, some were ginormous. It's even better if you warm it up a little once it's cold. I'm a huge fan of their glazed. Just a simple glazed, although the strawberry frosted was pretty yummy too. I think you really can't go wrong with any of the selection here. Moral of the story is that less is more with donuts. Dat Old Fashioned Donut.. Yes, I'd hit it. never quit it. read more
