We were in KC overnight on a road trip and were looking for local donuts. The trolley was very cute and our kids loved getting to eat in it. The donuts were good but we did not get to try the made to order mini donuts everyone raved about. We were there at little after 8:30 (open at 8) and there was only one employee who said it would be a while for minis as she had not yet started the dough. We also were interested in trying a special lion king 6 pack that they were advertising but were told it was made to order for next day pick up and we were leaving town. Overall very cute trolley with delicious standard donuts but if you want to try the made to order minis ORDER AHEAD (like a full day). read more

This was located in a once used trolley it looked like. The inside was very cool with a small display of the donuts. There were a few tables outside to sit at. The menu had standard donuts along with minis to choose from. The service was friendly. We opted for the squad pack ($18.99) which included fifteen minis. For some reason, only five flavors could be picked. They were made to order so it took around twenty minutes to come out fresh and hot. The flavors picked were birthday cake, French toast, s'mores, nutter butter, and peanut butter cup. They were of the cake variety. The texture for them was a little crunchier than I thought, but still okay. The warmness really made up for that. My favorite was the French toast as it had very an apparent flavor. The nutter butter was disappointing. The birthday cake was sweet, but not overly done while the s'mores had a nice marshmallow fluff. The peanut butter cup was alright with just enough peanut butter flavor. Will I go back? Meh. read more

Few donut locations can tout both a great pastry and an epic location, but Donutology sure can. Located in the KC trolly car downtown, you get a unique experience as you taste some great donuts. The staff was super friendly and walked me through their options. Personally, I recommend getting one of the multi-packs so you can sample several options at once. Plus, the donut holes are decorated fresh when you order them, which makes them that much better! Be sure to try the Nutter Butter as it was my absolute favorite.

Located next to Betty Rays in the River Market area. The shop is inside a vintage street car. We stopped by late in the day (2:00) so regular donut selections were limited. The mini custom donuts are made to order so you get the freshest donut. You can mix and match on the toppings. We also got a cappuccino and the clerk advised us it is 50% foam. I appreciated his honesty. The donuts were a bit messy but hot and fresh. The server/cook/barista/cashier ( 1man show) was very friendly. I noticed they had some martini drinks paired with donuts. This is great for evenings. read more

I went to check out the River Market location for Donutology and was not disappointed! They renovated an old trolley into the cutest donut shop! I'm not super adventurous with my donuts so I got a cake donut with white icing. Fresh and delicious! I also got the Jelly Donut Martini ( they serve alcohol after 2pm) which was a decent blend of sweet and tart. Adding the sprinkles definitely helps with the sweet flavor. The staff were super nice and patient as I asked a lot of questions lol and it didn't take long for them to make our donuts! read more

It's time to wake up, smell the coffee, & enjoy warm & fluffy donuts at Donutology in Kansas City! Donutology is a staple in the KC area to enjoy mini customizable donuts with a variety of fun & delicious flavors. My personal favorite?? S'mores, Peanut Butter, & Fruity Pebble Strawberry. There is something for everyone!! Did you know you could pre-order platters for gifts and/or events?? Why spend time making desserts when you can purchase some that are already perfect. One of my good friends catered Donutology at her weddding instead of cake & cupcakes...it was a HIT!!! People continued to go back to the dessert stand to try all the flavors! There is a new location in the River Market area & you can find it inside of this ADORABLE train. Pop inside to enjoy your coffee or simply grab & go at the window. On a sunny day, there are some seats outside too. If you haven't had the pleasure of trying Donutology yet, add this spot to your KC Bucket List today! read more

Quirky, unique, trendy donut hub that is located centrally in the river market inside a repurposed trolly car. If you have a hankering sweet tooth and donuts are one of your vices, then you are lucky because a new donut proveyer has arrived in the river market proper. Down here, donuts are few and far between, so this transformation was needed. Where Made in KC Market Place used to reside donutology has moved in, and you won't be missing the old dweller because all your coffee and pastry dreams have come true. You can order in two locations, at the pick-up window or walking inside the actual trolly car itself. With a variety of options, donuts are endless with a vast array of cake and yeast options. Also, with icing abundant, there are fun mini donut options where you can go crazy with customization! The full coffee menu will allow anyone to pair a matching drink with a nice little bite of sweetness. On opening day, the crowds were steady and the donuts were fresh, with happy tunes blasting from the speakers on the patio. It was the perfect touch making guests linger and stay awhile enjoying the beautiful Midwestern fall weather. This is definitely a completely novel donut experience for locals and tourists alike. Me myself, I stuck with what I knew I preferred, the cake donuts and went with a seasonal sounding flavor, maple. The other donuts I ended up with were the complimentary, for opening day, pumpkin spice cake donut, and then a blueberry iced one, my usual go-to. Each donut was a sweet morsel of delightfullness with a generous coating of flavored icing. The frosting differentiating one not-too dense cake donut from the other, each tickling my taste buds and making me so happy I treated myself today. Thanks donutology, for providing the downtown landscape with a destination for donuts and one that provides locals and tourists alike with an unconventional and unorthodox location to grab a sweet pick me up (and an actual pick me up, coffee) . Anyone who doesn't stop by or venture inside is missing out on an experience that is just an eccentric as KC itself, a Midwestern town that wants to be a big city...a retired city transit car that wants to be a donut powerhouse...well it doesn't want to be- it's well on its way to being! Catch it before it takes off! read more

Absolutely stoked to have a donut place downtown finally! It feels like every weekend I wake up craving a donut, and now I don't even have to get in the car. I love the reuse of the train car/trolley. They have a lovely deck out front, and there's even a little bit of seating inside the trolley car. You order at the window, and there's a big menu that shows what flavors they have available. Since they're not making the donuts on the trolley, sometimes they do run out. I will say, donutology donuts are not my favorite donuts in the city. Sometimes I think their cake donuts are a little dry and boring. I also wish they had more filled options. They can fill a long John or Bismarck with jelly or marshmallow topping on request. I wish there were other filling options because who wants an empty long John? Thanks for bringing a donut option downtown! read more

Trying out this place was more of my sister's choice but I'm glad we did. We drove down to The River Market and found where it was, we parked along the street and walked up to the Cute Street Car. There was a Patio area and I wasn't sure if we ordered outside and took it to go but as we were walking up a guy who worked there was walking in and said we could come inside about the same time a worker popped her head out and said to come on in(it was fairly chilly out) It's a very cute, quaint and fun street car. We ordered at the counter top, they offered minis and a couple different regular donuts as well as cinnamon rolls. I opted for 6 minis so I could try out a few flavors. I ordered 3 Candied Bacon, Death by Chocolate, Fruity Puff and a French Toast. They were made to order which took a little time but soooo worth it! They were hot and delicious, not overly sweet! My sister also ordered 6 minis-I believe she ordered a few different ones than me-Nutter Butter,S'mores and Strawberry Shortcake. I also ordered a Hot Dirty Chai and my sister ordered an Ice Matcha latte. The vibe was fun as they had music playing and you could tell the employees were having fun, they all were very nice. We will definitely be back for these little delicious donuts! read more

My sister and I go every Thursday to say hi to our favorite barista, and to grab the latest gluten free choices. (Celiac friendly places are our favorite, it takes the stress off of worrying about cross contamination, and my sister appreciates the wide range of GF choices.) We originally started going for the coffee and doughnuts, but quickly found that we were drawn to this adorable trolly for the amazing staff and the warm welcome/conversations. Amazing service, amazing food, all of it makes the start of our day so much better. 10/10 place!!! read more

We ordered a 6 pack mini donut variety. We got 1 candied bacon, 2 French toast, 2 PB, and 1 birthday. I believe we paid between $10-12 and the service was good. It takes some time for the donuts, but the presentation and taste is worth it. Ambiance inside allowed for 4-8 people to sit in the two booths but a few others spots for single individuals with side tables-- if they wanted to stay and eat. The worker was sweet. It was a fun experience read more

First impressions mean a lot and this didn't have it. The guy server seemed annoyed we were in there. Our first time there and he was not very helpful. The donuts were good but service left a bad taste in my mouth. I thought it was just me but even a month later my daughter mentioned it when we talked about that day. Too many other places to spend my money. Its a no for me read more

It's terrible. The store front is cool, but the doughnuts are old, gross, and overpriced. Being asked to tip for a $2.71 stale doughnut that someone just reached over and handed you is pathetic, pay your employees don't expect the customer to. Don't waste your money on this garbage. read more

Not worth the hype at all! Our donut was stale and coffee super milky! Not much flavor at all! Sorry but that's a no from me.

Extremely expensive for mediocre donuts. Converted rail car was cool. Service was ok, didn't make up for the donuts.

I was excited to see a donut shop open up in River Market, but these aren't great. Most of the donuts taste like they were made the day before, or are rejects from the main Donutology shop in Westport. Also, you could get there right when it opens on a weekday and they still won't have half the donuts on the menu. The coffee is fine, nothing to rave over. The staff is nice, but if you want a donut, even HyVee has better. read more
