    Chocolate long John
    Anthony O.

    THE BEST standard donuts in St. Louis, and maybe anywhere! Their raised donuts are big and pillowy, with the slightest crisp on the exterior. Apple fritters are solid (in execution, not density). They have other hot breakfast items which we haven't tried but seem popular. It's no frills, but for a standard donut you can't go wrong. This is the kind of place I hesitate to give a good review to try and keep a secret! But I hope they never go out of business and maybe expand. If there is one drawback, it's the coffee, in that they only have drip, and don't have espresso. Other minor gripes, occasionally donuts are slightly under done, but always still very good, and they only rarely have sugar dusted raised donuts (you can call ahead for special requests though).

    Oops. I posted on the check in. Anyway. Nice and clean. Great selection of donuts, muffins and sandwiches. The fridge is stocked with milk and juices. The donuts are always fresh. I have yet to try the sandwiches but aim to do so soon. It's strictly take-out. No place to sit and enjoy your donuts. The service is always fast and efficient. Not necessarily unfriendly -just business-like. It's my go-to in my neighborhood!

    Amazing donuts!! The service was great, and the prices affordable. Got a dozen of donuts, and they were all still warm. The apple fritter is to die for. It's also not noisy in there at all. They also sell breakfast sandwiches and coffee. A bunch of different bottled drinks available for purchase. Would absolutely go again!

    Don't let the few ratings fool you! This is the BEST donut I think I have EVER had ! I like to consider myself a donut connoisseur...whenever I visit s new place I always try to go to the popular donut spots....well I did that. I actually went to a donut spot that was ranked #1 donut in a competition one year for st. Louis and I was disappointed. It was subpar. The donuts at JMC were amazing ! Soft, but with a chew, sweet but not overly sweet literally the perfect dough. PLEASE CHECK THEM OUT AND REVIEW THEM SO THEY GET ON THE RADAR. We discovered because it was recommended by locals who live down the street and I am so glad they did ! Also they have breakfast sandwiches which was also delicious. I got the turkey bacon egg and cheese on a croissant. If I could give 7 stars I would.

    No inside dining during the pandemic.

    A small shop with a small donut selection but...oh, the glazed! Jmc has traditional donuts like long Johns (glazed and iced), chocolate cake, cinnamon rolls, jellies, apple fritters and a few more. If their other donuts are as outstanding as the glazed they don't need a large variety because they do well with what they have. They also have a few breakfast sandwiches and burritos.

    Boston crème donut

    This is our first time trying this place. We ordered the regular glazed donut, 2 Boston crème donuts, a cake donut, a blueberry cake donut and a croissant donut. Overall the quality is very good. They have the best fluffy interior of any donut in St Louis. The interior is light, fluffy and pillowy without any grease. Specific thoughts on the donuts: Boston crème: perfect filling ratio with abundant filling. The only criticism is that the chocolate layer could have been slightly thicker. Glazed: perfect glazed donut. Light, fluffy. Croissant donut: honestly the most disappointing. It was a competent yeasted donut in the shape of a croissant. I was expecting layers in the inside but it was essentially a normal glazed donut. Cake donuts: fluffy and moist without the overbearing density that cake donuts often get. The price is one dollar a donut which is slightly on the higher end but definitely worth it. This will be our go to donut spot from now on.

These yeasty, pillow-soft, melt-in-your-mouth little jewels of joy literally took my breath away. Every city I visit, I make it a mission to go doughnut hunting, but lately all I've been finding are oversized, over-decorated doughnuts that look amazing but lack flavor. Not Pharaoh's. These doughnuts are all about the taste. The rich, perfectly crafted yeast dough wraps your mouth with so much incredible flavor that I was literally salivating with every bite. They are light, fresh, airy, and absolutely unforgettable. This is what a real doughnut should taste like! And let's talk about the customer service! AJ was just as sweet as the treats they serve. She welcomed me with genuine kindness, asked where I was from, how long I'd be in St. Louis, and made me feel like more than just another customer. Then, just when I thought the experience couldn't get any better, I got back to my truck and discovered she had blessed me with three extra doughnuts to try! Now that's hospitality. Thank you, AJ, for making my first visit so memorable, and thank you, Pharaoh's Donuts, for reminding me what an authentic, delicious yeast doughnut is supposed to taste like. I'll definitely be back every time I'm in St. Louis. 5 out of 5 Stars! Highly recommended!

My friend and I split a dill cream cheese hand pie ($11), sausage gravy hand pie ($11), and apple fritter ($6). The crust on the hand pies was so flaky, and baked just enough so that it developed a toasty, nutty flavor without getting burnt. Each hand pie was stuffed with savory filling that wasn't overpowering in saltiness. My mouth is watering while writing this! I usually go for the savory instead of sweet option but my friend insisted that we get a donut and I am glad we did. This was probably the best apple fritter I've ever had in my life! It had chunks of apple that I could see and taste. The dough was so fluffy and soft. I could even taste the subtle brown butter flavor in the glaze! So good! If I lived next door to this place, you'd find me here every day.

What stuck with me more than the issue itself was how it was handled, fully understand that things happen, but taking ownership and explaining how you'll prevent it in the future really matters. That said, I finally decided to give them another try. Most of my experiences here have actually been positive. The majority of the staff are patient and give you time to look over all the flavors without making you feel rushed, which I appreciate. But my most recent visit left a bad impression. I stopped by early one Sunday morning around 6 AM to grab donuts for my nursing unit, and I was the only person in the store. Despite that, I felt rushed the entire time. The employee helping me didn't seem like she wanted to be there and wasn't very pleasant, which kind of threw off the whole experience. On the plus side, I do love that they're open 24 hours, super convenient, and the donuts themselves are good. My go-to is the Caramel Bacon Long John (definitely worth trying). Runner up is the Apple fritter.I will say, though, the flavor, texture, and even the size can be a little inconsistent at times. Another thing I've noticed is the pricing. I understand costs have gone up everywhere, but paying around $30 for a box of donuts, especially with upcharges for "specialty" ones feels a bit steep. Pro tip: check their website for coupons or deals before you go. It definitely helps. Overall, I'd still say give them a try and form your own opinion. This has just been my experience.
