Donuts are awesome but the packaging job was a zero. Ask for the box not the bag every-time! We only bought 4 donuts - 2 sour cream & 2 Bavarian cream. The girl packed them on their side across the bottom of the bag. They were wedged in and the chocolate came off both donuts. I even made a comment how to pack and she just looked at me like I was stupid. So $4 down the drain. She could have put 2 sour cream laying flat and then the 2 Bavarian creams on top which would have saved them both. If you are going to put a tip jar on the counter then care a little bit more! We've tipped before but no more. These donuts were mucky/wet and looked unappealing which ruined the experience of eating them. read more

Oh. My. Soul. Freshest eclair donut I've ever eaten in my life! It was like eating a cloud. If I could give ten stars I would! Don't walk, run or drive really fast and get your donuts there today. Great counter service and an adorable little shop to get your donuts and coffee. Love this place!!! read more

We bookmarked this place in 2024 and finally had the chance to stop by while in the area. I picked up a French cruller, my favorite, and it did not disappoint. It was moist and airy; I would've loved the option to warm it up for a few seconds in the microwave. The staff was friendly, and there's plenty of free parking since the shop is a standalone building with eye-catching pink signs, you can't miss it! read more

Great coffee and even better donuts! The best deal around. 1dozen of the day old donuts is less than $8.00! They aren't stale like Dunkin' Donuts!!! Great deal! I also recommend the day olds because it forces you to possibly try something you normally wouldn't. There's so many favorites here! I truly love the peanut, German chocolate, blueberry glazed, taffy apple!!! And Angel creams. But honestly they are all awesome! Even better when you get them fresh and still warm! If you haven't they are always there making donuts all day everyday. Ask for a doughnut that's still hot! It's a game changer. This deal makes me and my coworkers happy! Get some coffee from there if you haven't! It really is that good too! read more

First Timer and this place was definitely open for business. I ordered two donuts and a dozen donut holes. The cinnamon was delicious. I was in town for the day and thought to try something new. I'm glad I did. I shared so much that I gave them all away. The service although quick was pleasant and kind. I'd definitely return but would only indulge in a few bc too much sugar makes me itch. read more

tasty cold brew coffee and a great selection of donuts made fresh morning and night! read more

From Arlington Heights, in Joliet to pick up my daughter from the train station. Decided to stop by, have a donut, and work while I wait for her. The service is friendly and good. Prices are reasonable. The inside seating has the pleasant feel of an old time diner. I ordered the blueberry cake donut and it was quite good. Not as sweet as some other cake donuts I've had, but the blueberry taste is excellent! Overall, this place is worth a try if you're in the area. Highly recommended! read more

I tried this place for the first time yesterday. I feel like I made a mistake by not going earlier, because I think some of the better flavors probably sell out quicker. The girl working the counter was super friendly, and made great suggestions. My favorite donut that I tried was probably the cherry flavored one. The last time I had something similar was from Thornton's gas station and I really liked it. I was happy to find it again. The caramel apple was also delicious, it reminded me of an apple pie filing inside. It was not overly sweet either. The honey dip was pretty good. It's very similar to a plain, old-fashioned, just slightly different. I have not tried the sprinkled one yet, but I'm sure it's also good. The donut shop is nice, I believe they are open 24 hours and they are very reasonable. Four donuts only cost me $6.15. Great prices!! read more

We are full-time RVers, and we love to pull into an area and town and find the local favorites! We are from SoCal, we've traveled a bit and we're foodies! We love a good bite, and when it comes to sugar, it's gotta be worth the bite. Here is what worked for us: Cute place on the outside Great and ample parking Easy to find right on Route 66 Service was quick and efficient Lots of payment options There are lots of donuts to pick from. They actually had an apple fritter! Here is what did not work: The donuts . I took a bite of my apple fritter, and the edges had a burnt taste that I still can't get rid of. I tried it closer to the center... it was ok...not worth the sugar hit. I tossed 90% of it. The buttermilk donut tasted like it was stale and day old. I took one bite and threw the rest away The cherry cake donut flavor. Cherry flavor can be a hard one to get right..the flavor of this tasted like cough syrup. When your main business is 'a thing' and that 'thing' isn't done well- well, that is too bad. read more

I heard this was the best donuts around. I suppose if you like cake donuts, you'd appreciate this donut shop that's open 24/7 in case you crave donuts in the middle of the night. I would like to try it freshly made. I ate it awhile after they were bought so they were on the tougher dryer side. They do have a wide selection of flavors. read more

This is one of the BEST donut shops! Whenever I am in town, I try to visit to get my donut fix. There is definitely a reason why they have been around since 1966! I ordered 6 donuts. I got the following donuts: Bavarian cream, blueberry, honey dew, honey dip and chocolate donuts. My top favorites are the Blueberry and honey dip. My husband loved the Bavarian cream. I can't wait to be back! read more

Wow! For years my Partner in crime and I have been on the search for great donuts. While some things change, my search for great doughnuts has not and it has lead me here to Home Cut Donuts! A friend told me about this place. Said it's old school and it's been around for a long time. Classic donuts made fresh with great coffee. Sounds like my kind of place!!! Let's check it out..... The place itself is small with an old school glass case for display and the old racks of donuts on display behind the counter. There is a small counter which seems to have a handful of men who were early morning regulars. I would go early too. The chocolate glazed is so fresh and sinfully delicious. Melts in your mouth. The cinnamon roll is gigantic as well as the apple fritter both taste like heaven with the spice of grandma's kitchen. Haven't tried any others at the moment. I'm sure they are equally as good if not better. There is a taffy apple, jelly, sour donut, cherry, more chocolate frosted. More to come ;) also service was fast and good! Service with a smile :) read more

Classic Joliet donut shop. The staff is fantastic and the building is so cute and retro. Everything you neeed from a donut shop

I had been meaning to drop by this place for a while now and I have to admit it was certainly worth the wait! This local business has been up and running for decades now and I understand why! With such a refreshing and unique old-timey experience, it is a gem. Prices are certainly more than reasonable for excellent and delicious donuts and coffee! The atmosphere of this place was calm, relaxed, and brought a sense of nostalgia. Other patrons were so kind and friendly, greeting you as you took a seat next to them at their wrap-around countertop tables. I'll be certain to drop by when I'm in the area again. I highly recommend this place for a good donut, great coffee, and a good chat! read more

Good donuts always fresh good friendly service huge variety there open 24 hours a day always there for a sweet treat

I think the donuts are very basic maybe the same taste as Dunkin' Donuts and for it to be a donut shop it's highly disappointing in the donuts that I received read more

What a great find in Joliet!! Hands down some of the best donuts I have had ever. This is a 24 hour joint which has nailed the recipe for a primo donut. The toasted coconut donut (one of my benchmarks) and the pumpkin frosted donut were both excellent. My wife liked hers also. We both noted how they weren't dry like some places. read more

Donuts were some of the best donuts in the area. The donuts were very flavorful and were light. I will definitely be going again.

I love this place, it's 5 minutes walking from my house, an amazing spot to meet friends, and I love the donuts! Their hot chocolate and coffee is pretty nice especially when studying late at night read more

The best donuts ever! They have been for years. The girls at the counter are always so helpful and polite.

Another update. Showed up after work, didn't work a full shift because that's what the plant called for, so I showed up at 4 in the morning. Well, nothing was fresh. a chocolate cream that just came out of the back while I was waiting at the counter was not hot and it was OK. Angel cream eclair? I ate that second. Had I eaten that first, I would've thrown the whole bag into the garbage. It tasted old, dry , the cream tasted old like they've been sitting in the display case for a month, which I know it's not true. But I'm completely done with them. I've given them a chance after chance and I know my options were a little limited because it was the middle of the night, but I think the next time I have a craving in the middle of the night I'll just go without a doughnut. Once upon a time this place was fantastic. I have no idea what happened and I'm not coming back. I guess they're happy producing mediocrity. Donut Den and others are light years ahead. read more
