The best donut shop in the St.Charles county! Every time I bring these to work they are gone instantly! Blueberry and the Chop Suey are the top of my and my co-workers list of favorites! Boulevard St. Peter?s loves your donuts! Thanks Donut King!
Nice donut shop right off main drag. Easy in, easy out. They have the standards but what I liked was that they offered smaller versions of the big donuts in case you just want to nibble or you?re on a restrictive diet like I am. Their eclairs also have real cream and not the pudding style like you get in most donut shops. Coffee was ok.
Very friendly staff, the earlier you get, the better, great choices for every taste.
I'm a local photographer and I like to stop in from time to time when I'm close by or I want to surprise the fam with a morning treat. This is an old school classic donut shop. The donuts are always on point and at a fair price. If they run out of creme or custard they'll make one for you which I appreciate. If you're thinking about a donut stop here instead of the chains you'll be happier with your purchase. Oh and you should grab the maple bacon long john, you can thank me later. #supportlocalbusiness
My visit was delightful! It was just the way I wanted to start my early morning out. Everyone was very nice and they even saw me waiting outside before they were open and welcomed me in 5 minutes early. In addition to the excellent service the doughnuts were still warm! My favorite, along with the rest of St. Charles I?m sure, was the chop suey. The yeast donuts were soft and pillowy and the old fashioned had a thin glazed crunch that gave way to the pleasantly dense but soft inside that old fashioned donu
Got to love the One and Only Donut King ( Chuck's way to make the Donuts ). Get there early before they sell out. St Charles people know where to taste Fresh donuts made from ingredients of quality. Been there done that.. I've made those donuts
Busy busy busy shop . My favorite is the apple crumble topping with apple pie filling . Lots yummy choices. Purchased over a dozen .
Our donuts were delicious. Had almost a crispy flake texture to them which you don't really get from other bakeries. Only advice is to get there early! They were out of most donuts when we arrived but we still had a decent variety. Definitely will be back earlier next time.
We were in line to buy donuts when three girls came in from the local. I assume college. They cut in front of all the customers, they were rude, they touched all kinds of donuts without washing your hands, they took some without paying and walked out. Makes me think the people running the place do not know how to run a clean restaurant
Lots of locals neighbors and friends gather for coffee, a donut and morning conversation. Family friendly . It is Very rare to find a family owned heartfelt business that one can go to (like cheers) and "everyone knows your name". Like family. It just makes you wanna go back for more of those quality donuts, coffee and conversation. Be amazed!
Loved our first visit! New owners were great! For a peanut and tree nut allergy family, it's hard finding safe bakeries. This was an added bonus for the trip with a great find while we were visiting STL. You've got fans in Indiana and we'll look forward to making another visit soon!
Very kind and donuts were the best I?ve ever had!
Great atmosphere and great donuts! I drove 25miles to get here this morning and these donuts are worth the trip! Thanks for a wonderful start to the day!
Great place. In and out quick. Exactly what I was looking for. Make sure to try the cinnamon twist!
Just went here today 12/27/24 at 8am and it was closed, is this place ever open anymore? Seems like every time I come here it?s closed.
Great donuts and old school atmosphere. I would really recommend to the owners that when you are on vacation, please post the hours to Google. It sucks driving 20 minutes and then the shop is closed :( it has happened twice this summer both to myself and some out of town family members that we recommended it too
The donuts here are homemade and delicious! There are a variety of donuts to choose from. There is coffee and milk that can be purchased also!
Great,fresh&delicious donuts. Fast&friendly staff.Driving west I found it after leaving STL Airport @5:30a.m.Great find!I took a chance&trid cherry filled donut. To my surprise,it was soooo good!
Stopped by here on my way back from court to take donuts to the office. First time here. There wasn't a huge variety but there weren't any left either when I arrived back to the office announcing I stopped at Donut King. Made sure to get the main attorney his favorite - jelly donut. :) Highly recommend these donuts! Professional and friendly staff too.
Highly recommend checking this place out! Stopped by this morning and the donuts were awesome!! The cherry with crumb on top and glazed twist were our favorites.
Me and my family go every other Sunday, and Doughnut King never fails us! They always have a wide variety of doughnuts, and they are always fresh! The customer service is always great. It's always a treat to be able to enjoy their doughnuts.
Excellent donuts, great prices, very friendly and welcoming owner and staff. We are from out of town and came across this gem in our travels and are so glad we did! You gotta try the Dutch Crumb and the Chop Suey, but don't sleep on the simple elegance of the Cinnamon Twist either. Do yourself a favor, skip those chain joints and give this place a try, you will not regret it!
I went there right around close time and they still had a decent selection with super friendly staff and the prices were extremely reasonable and cheap
It was my first time to visit the store, friendly staffs and yummy donuts. I would love to visit this place again.
Fresh tasty doughnuts! I thought they were out of what my grandson likes, and they had the ability and smiles to still make him the right frosting doughnut 20 minutes before closing!
This was my second time visiting. The 1st time the donuts were fine. Not fantastic but ok. Today they are not good. It was a little bit after 8:00 am on Sunday. Although they had a lot of donuts ( I ordered one of each), most of them are dry & don't taste fresh. The ones that are fresh don't taste good. About the service: Not good. I had the feeling they dislike my accent but we will not talk about xenofobia here. I made an order without setting quantity or price limit. I got distracted while I was standin
I had a chocolate long john, part of a vanilla long john, a jelly donut, dutch crumb, glazed and chocolate glazed and boy every single donut was delicious! The Dutch crumb, man that's a tasty donut. The jelly might be the best jelly donut I've ever had! Perfect amount of jelly and the donut was so soft and yummy. Only thing I'd improve is there wasn't enough icing on the long johns. The donut was very good, just needed more icing to reach its full donut potential.
Best donuts, try the Dutch crumb
I've never been here before thought I would try it out. Told the guy I wanted a dozen, I was getting 3, 3, 3 when I got to 9 he says that is 10 you only get two more I said no that 9 I get 3 more he only allowed me 11 and charged me for a dozen shoved box to me half open. I paid and turned to leave he starts yelling bye I guess you will pay me next time. With place full of people. He was a jerk. I never turned to acknowledge him. Sorry I went in to get donuts I'm not tipping. I tip at restaurants.
These donuts were delicious! We got a dozen and an apple fritter and everyone was happy at home. I'll be back for the rest of the varieties another time! Service was outstanding with great conversation and warm smiles. Definitely worth a drive to St. Charles!
Alert!!!! Best donuts in town BUT we?ve been there twice and they were closed! Checked website and it said they were open. Drove across town to find they were closed. It was 8:00am! Too bad. I won?t be going back because of this. If you live close it wouldn?t be as bad. Wasted time and gas.
Used to come here under previous owner. Donut is smaller. Chocolate on top filled with creme. And less creme too. Sad. At least all the old coffee clutchers were not there morning I popped in. No parking when they are there.
Definitely recommend this place. The donuts are fantastic and affordable. Their service is great very very polite.
Love the Chop Suey donut!
They made the most amazing flower donut cake for my daughter's 1st birthday and it came out better then I could have imagined! Everyone there treats you like family!
I finally got out here early enough to try and this place is great! The coffee is good, the donuts are amazing (just like I remember donuts being when I was a kid) - both the raised and the cake donuts are exceptional. The curbside delivery was really convenient and the staff was friendly. Great experience, great value.
Simply the best donuts in St Charles county.
Today was the first time trying them. Let's just say the middle aged blonde woman behind the counter has a chip on her shoulder. Bad service, Bad Attitude, Good donuts so, you decide. For me, I will not go back and recommend Dunkin Donuts just a couple blocks away. St Charles Location.
Best donuts in the area hands down. No line as it was after breakfast crowd. Would like to see more space to sit and eat. You need get rid of the coffee clutches who take up space.
Went with my partner for the first time last week and loved it! Planning on going back today. We both tried the blueberry donut and we agreed it was the best we had ever had. I also got a powdered jelly which was light, fluffy and perfect. However after I tried my partners world famous chop suey, I wished I had gotten that one. Unbelievably delicious! We got four donuts and two small coffees all for $6 and some change. Highly recommend!
I've been going to Donut King all of my life. I've had others, but these handmade donuts top my donut list. The donuts can be almost crisp on the outside, adding a unique texture not found anywhere else. So delicious! The chocolate iced creme filled and glazed are my favorites. Also, make sure you bring cash, because they are CASH ONLY :D
I made the mistake of bringing Donut King Donuts to work one Saturday. The guys are now calling them Cracky King Donuts because they are as addictive as CRACK!!! I had guys offering me $30 to bring them a DOZEN DUNUTS during Duck Hunting season!!! HANDS DOWN the best I've ever had!
Favorite place to go with the wife and boys. Owner actually greets people. Great selection. Tastes awesome! Best French donuts anywhere! Be sure to try their special of the month too... And the unicorn donut!
I was held in St Charles city jail for 12 hours. They gave me my phone back but it was dead I wandered into Donut King and they charged my phone up enough so I could get an Uber. And they let me use their address as the pickup point. They didn't have to do any of that. They were just very nice.
Love this place. Come in for breakfast all the time. Great doughnuts and coffee. I highly recommend the french doughnuts when they have them. My Great uncle loves their Dutch crumb, but it goes out quick so get there early for them.
I never miss the chance to stop by Donut-King. Everything that I have bought has always tasted the best and the prices are fair. The apple fritters are my go to donut.
Best donuts in St Charles! They even special filled a custard donut for me, since there were none in the case
No equal anywhere in Missouri! Get there early and don't worry about cash anymore...they now have credit / debit availability! The glazed donuts have the thick glaze and the Dutch Crumb are amazing. Parking can be a bit hairy (small lot), but don't let that deter you. Sad to see Paul's go this year, but the best donuts in MO have been here at the Donut King!
Stopped in with a local friend; amazingly cheap and delicious; very mom & pop feeling plus super nice 10/10
This is my "go-to" donut shop when I pick up a dozen for my work. It's delicious and always fresh.
Best donuts in St Louis area - not just St Charles. I have been going here for years and it?s only gotten better! Try a chop suey, they will change your life.
Afyer living in 8 states, these are by far the best donuts I've ever had. I love the Apple and Spice and my wife the cinnamon twist.
First time here. Great selection of donuts. They were so fresh and delicious.
Donut King is my new favorite doughnut shop! The doughnuts are delicious! I especially enjoy the Dutch Crumb doughnut and the Chop Suey. The staff is friendly and quick, I bought 3 dozen doughnuts to bring to work and it took no time at all. My coworkers all loved the doughnuts as well. I will definitely be going back again to try all of the flavors offered.
Donuts were pretty good. Selection was a bit limited (7:15 am on a Sunday). Staff seemed pretty indifferent, not that they have to throw a party for people coming in, but some bit of polite cuatomer service/greeting might be appreciated :)
The donuts were absolutely amazong.
I am a lover of donuts, as evidenced by my ample bottom. And I have tried donut shops all over the St. Louis metro area. I have no use for Krispy Kreme, Dunkin is ok, Old Town Donuts has been my fav. I am particularly fond of the blueberry cake donut. Today, we went to Donut King: long John, glazed, key lime pie filled, and blueberry cake. The long John was great, the glazed was fabulous, the key lime pie hit nail on the head it was so good but the blueberry cake donut. Holy hell. That was the best one I'v
Looking for "non-factory" donuts? This is the place. Glazed donuts have flaky glaze--not the thin watery stuff. The donuts have the tell-tale golden ring around them confirming that they have correctly risen in the fryer. Good variety. Ask about "chop-suey" donut. Its their unique donut. Coffee is blue-collar coffee. Fresh but not fancy.
I wasn't expecting much but these may have been the best donuts I've ever had. That apple crumb is amazing. Prices are reasonable and the donuts were fantastic.
A wonderful, family-owned, small business that serves delicious donuts and fresh coffee. If you're in town and hankering for a donut, bypass the chain-store and have a taste of St Charles.
Donuts are legit and a hidden gem in St Charles. The chop suey is a family favorite with the Dutch crumb a close second. Get there early as they sell quickly. Delicious!
We really love Donut-King. The only problem with it is that it's so popular that sometimes the doughnuts are mostly sold out by the time we get there. That just gives us incentive to get up earlier, though. These are great doughnuts!
Looks like I have a new fav donut spot in town. The donuts are pillowy soft with a perfect texture of a bit of crispiness on the outside. So yummy! Friendly staff.
The Donuts were for our daughters wedding. They looked beautiful, smelled incredible and tasted divine. Our new favorite donuts.
If you are looking for a delicious cinnamon crumb donut, this is the place! The donut is not dusted in cinnamon and sugar, but is dunked in white icing and then generously rolled in those yummy ingredients. This donut comes the closest to the one offered at Winchell's donuts in southern California.
My family and I have been going to Donut King for years. I'm happy to say that the quality has not dropped in the slightest under the new ownership. Looking forward to going back to my favorite donut shop in St. Charles!
Great selection, great prices, and great donuts! Went out of my way to try it, and it was well worth it. Will definitely return in the future!
The donut was delicious. It was huge and well packed, perfect for a birthday party.
This has been at this location since I was very young. It's been a while since I've been there because I no longer live in town. But, I go back every chance I get.
Donuts are great.. I went there this morning, got there at 5:04, Fresh donuts, but unfortunately .. Paul just wasn't the friendliest person I've ever met.. customer service means a lot.. smile Paul..or something.. I just didn't appreciate the grumpy attitude.. by the way.. it was my first time there,
Terrible service. They didnt know what Boston creme was. They told me the filled donuts were fine but the custard was what i actually needed. Its a good thing i asked for two before I left. Children taking orderrs not knowing what donuts are.
Great donuts and friendly atmosphere
Easily the best doughnuts in St. Charles, always friendly!
Best chocolate Glazed Donuts in the area....you have to ask for them but they are outstanding!!! All donuts are light with amazing chew. Wish we'd found them years ago.
Best donuts in town, good coffee too. Always fast and friendly service. We like to pick some up and sit down by the river for breakfast.
They TOTALLY got my Order WRONG, and they even called the morning of and confirmed what I wanted?. ALL I asked for was something They advertised on their website, AND THEY STILL GOT IT WRONG?. I HOPE YOU ARE HAPPY YOU RUINED A 13 year ? Birthday?.
I've been getting donuts from here since I can remember. This is mine and my Aunt's favorite donut place. They run out of donuts pretty early sometimes so get there as early as possible. Yum yum yum
I use to eat other doughnuts and thought they were pretty good... then I tried this place and now all the other places are in a distant second. I LOVE these doughnuts and want to scream it on a mountain top.
They have a great system for getting customers in and out. I love the chop suey and the dutch..
Wife and I wanted an early morning sweet treat and called DD as we were right next to it and was treated so rudely over the phone we decided to google and find another donut location and THANKFULLY we found Donut King. Fast, friendly and delicious!
"Fantastic donuts!" Good and hot, fresh coffee. Very friendly staff. (Watch their days, hours)
The selection of donuts is fantastic. We got chocolate iced and glazed that were delicious. Great place to get donuts ??
Fantastic, friendly and fun staff. Top donut place for sure. Tasty chop suey!!!
First one there this morning, wide selection of donuts. My favorite is the custard and now the cherry filled chocolate iced donut. Very good.
Really good Donut's however, donut shop seems unwilling to adapt when customers make solid suggestions which would improve customer satisfaction, save money & increase overall inflow of business.
Hands down, best donuts in town. Been coming here for years. Even with the new owners, this place sets the standard for me.
Probably one of the best donuts in the area. Would have put 5 but there was a couple hair in the last donuts we bought.
St. Charles institution! This place has been here for as long as I can remember and the donuts are always awesome! Get there early, bring cash and you won't regret it.
