Located about two miles from I-64 along the main road (Hanover), it is easy to find. There are only…read morea couple spaces in the street in front, but we parked in the paved church parking lot next door. This must be normal as several other customers parked here. There is a sign on the side of the building that indicated if you need assistance they would bring your selection out to you, which would be a sign of excellent customer service. The short walk from the parking lot along the paved sidewalk leads to a set of double doors and narrow steps into the retail area. This could certainly be an issue for those with limited mobility. Once you are into the retail area, you are greeted by the friendly staff and several display cases of the day's selection. The staff apologized for the limited selection, but I honestly found many great items. I am intrigued as to just how much more extensive their selection would be when they first open. They have the typical danishes, (cherry, apple, cheese, OMG THEY HAVE A GERMAN CHOCOLATE DANISH!!!!). There was a wide selection of donuts and other assorted pastries, and several items which brought back fond memories. We walked out with a couple boxes of treasure for a very reasonable price. We sampled many as we travelled and found each one tasty and wonderful. Berkemann's is a must stop location any time we are travelling through the area.

I also had a vanilla cake donut with cream cheese icing on top, and it was similarly wonderful.

Next time I am that direction, I certainly will stop by again!

She proceeded to tell me it was they who cook all night Tuesday night into Wednesday morning then deliver the fresh donuts over there to sell. I know it's worth the ride on weekends to go them.

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!

The donuts are good with various concoctions like a maple bacon variety, though it pales in comparison to the wall of donuts I grew up with as a kid at places like Dunkin' donuts.

A handful of donut holes are often also tossed into the box, which as a dad of 5 kids, we do appreciate. The donuts are good but not necessarily anything particularly special and are priced on the high end .
