Freshly baked donuts with good crispy cake donuts and muffins. Red velvet cake donut was our top pick, staff could have been nicer taking our order. We got a dozen and some donut holes. Bathroom are closed to public. We were looking for an awesome donut shop not caring how far the drive and it was okay; probably wouldn’t go out of our way for it again.
Worth the drive. Worth the wait! Take a trip for the best donuts in your life! No joke! They are airy, light, fluffy, and don’t sit heavy in your tummy afterwards! Still family owned, and operating 24 hrs a day! Freshest handmade donuts you’ll ever eat! Angel creme, Boston cream, Apple fritter with real apple pie filling in the middle, sugar twists, honey glazed, double chocolate what more do I need to say... oh, they have bomb fresh coffee! Try it! You’ll be happy you did!
It’s our favorite donut place ever! Great chocolate cake donut that is slightly crunchy and the chocolate is not overly sweet. The apple cider donuts are really good “world’s best”. You really can’t go wrong with any selection but in addition to the chocolate cake, the devil’s food, Boston cream and white iced are amazing.
I’ve been there 3 different times and the staff always have an attitude problem. Some of the donuts have an extra charge even though there is no price next to it. If you question why you were charged extra the staff gives your an attitude and they walk away. Good donuts but horrible service.
Went to get donuts for a public school group/students and had my tax exempt letter with me and my school ID. They refused to serve me because I was using a credit card and said that the IRS only allowed them to take cash with tax exempt letters. This is strange because I was there 2 times last week and they honored my tax exempt letter and I paid both times with a credit card. In addition, every other business allows teachers to use their tax exempt letters with a credit card because they are smart enough to know that teachers have to get reimbursed by their school districts and dont use cash for these purchases because we are poor. In addition, the female manager was rude, curt, and should not of been put in a leadership position modeling such unprofessional behavior. By years end, I will be purchasing for many tax exempt situations..Country Donuts, due to your rudeness, I will be putting hundreds of dollars in another kinder, more professional vendors pocket.
By far the best donuts Ive had in years! So, I judge a donut shop by their ability to make a traditional cake donut. It should have a nice crunchy crust, moist on the inside, flavor, texture, etc.. These are perfect. Like a true cake donut, with a perfect crust. As are the others Ive tried: Sour Cream (or maybe they called it buttermilk..?), devils food, and bavarian cream. All perfect. Ill be back!
If I could give 6 stars I would :-) We went there on a recommendation and we were not disappointed. Having not been there before we just asked for assorted 2 dozen. I have tried plenty of donut shops in Chicago and I do enjoy their unique flavors like salted caramel etc. Country donuts has more basic flavors but they do them extremely well. In particular I enjoyed the chocolate with glaze which tasted like coco puffs (and normally I dont like chocolate donuts). The cruller was fried perfectly as well one of my favorite types of donuts and this one was done perfectly. Oh and Boston cream needs a shout out. I would definitely like to go back again.
Had to stop and get a dozen donuts for the family. The angel cream ones are always a great. Just drive up order and drive home to enjoy a great treat. Fresh sweet and his the spot. Go ahead and enjoy a dozen of you childhood favorites and some that are new. Cant go wrong.
Best doughnuts around. Get there early or there will be a long wait.
Best donuts in McHenry County. No doubt
Best donuts in the area. They actually have flavor and arent cheap. Stuffed donuts are perfectly filled. Masks were worn, which is super appreciated.
Probably the best donuts Ive ever had. They were great. I was working on the area and decided to buy donuts for my crew and was very delightfully surprised.
Country Donuts is our favorite donut shop by far!! Ive been going here for 15 years now and I wont go to another if given the choice! The other shops dont hold a candle to the quality, flavors, and freshness of Country Donuts. Their coffee is also the best in town, I highly recommend enjoying a cup inside at the bar stools alongside the most amazing french crueler youve ever had! Our other favorites include the white iced rings, blueberry cake, and jelly filled. No matter what your choice you cant go wrong!
Apple donut- OUT OF THIS WORLD!!🍎🍩😃
Recommend the glazed apple crisp and blueberry donuts. Those are very, very yummy. 😊
Used to go once a week at 1am for donuts. They are always made fresh day of and always delicious. Apple cider during the fall was always a staple for me highly recommend.
Let me preface by saying I do not even like donuts.... And I am a health coach. And I cannot get enough of these!! I would drive way out of the way for their fabulous donuts!!! Their donut holes are out of this world and any cake donuts! They are always so fresh the texture is impeccable.
Best donuts around hands down. nothing is close. super fresh and best tasting
Always a great place for the King or Queen of Donuts. I love their Coffee Rolls. Superb!
This place is always hopping with activity because everything they sell is fresh and so good.
Dont miss it if youre in the area. The location on Virginia street is very cute, kinda old school. The donuts are delicious. The yeast donuts are light, almost like Krispy Kreme, but better. Chocolate icing was very nicely flavored.
My absolute favorite donut place! Their blueberry donuts are AMAZING! I live in central Illinois now but anytime Im within 30miles of one of their locations I go out of my way to get some donuts
The best. Forget dunkin.
Im not sure what I can really say about homemade donuts 24 hours a day that doesnt already speak for itself, but what I will say is that these locals better treat them right and with respect. Even though the inside is closed for Covid-19 (respect) they will bring it right to your car! Thats service! The pic is of their Homecut (regular cake style) and their Chocolate Iced Angel Cream (yeast risen).
As well as great and fresh donuts, they also have very good coffee. Love this place!
The best donut shop I’ve tried so far, maybe at par (or even better!) than Gurnee Donuts!I absolutely, absolutely, LOVE their bavarian donut! It’s simply the best. My other amazing and awesome favorites are their Strawberry-filled (get this instead of the jelly-filled; this is so much better) and Devil’s Food (yummy dark chocolate goodness that is neither too sweet nor too bitter; just perfectly balanced).
These donuts are truly the best. We moved to Indianapolis 3 years ago and every time we come back to visit family we stop to get donuts. We haven’t found any other donut that compares to these. They are always fresh and delicious. Thank you.
Great doughnuts at a pretty good price. The sign in the window - Worlds Best Apple Doughnuts - is pretty on target - try the ones filled with apples!
I had a bad experience today when I tried to exchange a coffee. The manager on duty was rude and make feel like I was asking for the impossible. I drive 45 minutes to purchase donuts at this location and never had an issue until today. Very disappointed at the customer service offered at this location.
The best! Great wonderful staff. Amazing donuts - soft fluffy flavorful variety.
This Bakery is the best bakery around But I have found that some of their donuts and pastries are under cooked I have found raw pastry dough in the coffee rolls. Other than that their pastries are very good and fresh
I dont normally eat donuts, but this is the only place I would eat a donut... I remember going here with my girl scout troop and getting a tour of the area where they make the donuts. They know what they are doing!!
Donuts r always fresh and the rarely run out of the kind our family likes. The Paczkis 2 celebrate Fat Tuesday r awesome. Always a treat!
Donuts were good but didnt like the coffee with powder creamer
This place is great! They made a 56 year-old man, feel like a kid again. Reminded me of a donut store in Elgin I used to go to in the 70s and early 80s. Nice people work here. I hope they treat their employees well, because they deserve it! They are like a team making sure all pandemic-ridden patrons get their amazing donuts. The line is long. I called ahead. It takes awhile to get through, but be patient. Then I just pulled into the parking lot and they brought them out. Around $7 for 6 items. These prices are beyond reasonable. I wish I lived locally.
The Boston Cream and glazed donuts are insane! Theyre ALWAYS fresh! Dont waste your time going anywhere else because these are exponentially better than that big chain that just dropped donuts from their name.
Has potential. Alot of hard workers in there. Just a lack of management. Everyone running around stepping on each other while working. Seems dangerous and prone to error.Ordered a half dozen of doughnuts for the kids and none of them had sprinkles or icing. Pretty ridiculous. You have to have standards and management to compete with the giants out there.Invest the money to train your managers.
The coffee and donuts, delicious as always but they made us wait 20 minutes in the parking lot just because we made an order for 5 people
Great donuts, great pricing. It can get busy at times but the quality and cost is worth the wait.
Did a quick pickup at the drive through. The staff was very nice, COVID precautions in place respectfully, and the donuts and coffee both hit the spot. Thanks!
Always come here for my grandma to get her the donuts she loves, decided to get a dozen for a change and the girl at the window must’ve been having a bad day, seemed irritated with me, nonetheless great donuts and usually great customer service :)
The best donuts Ive found since leaving NY :)
I have been a customer of Country Doughnuts since 1980. I travel all over this beautiful country and have yet to find a doughnut shop as good as Country Doughnuts! Their staff is friendly and very efficient and their doughnuts are ALWAYS fresh! THANK YOU For fresh coffee and enjoyable morning snacks! My Grand kids LOVE them!
Amazing and fresh donuts! This is an amazing place to visit and love the quality of their donuts. Please dont ever get rid of the Angel Cream donuts with a generous amount of creme in the donut!! Delicious!!
Nuke! Youll never eat Dunkin Donuts again (or at least not pay for them). By far the best local Donuts around and would honestly put them up against anywhere in the country!
This place had a line at 8pm so I had to stop by the next day and there was another long line. The line was WELL WORTH IT!!!!! Best donuts Ive EVER tasted in my entire life. Coffee was good and the staff was friendly.
I drive 45 minutes just to get the donuts here! Always fresh and delicious.
Best donuts for the price hands down. Staff is always pleasant, 24 hrs. The only negative is the drive thru does not have a menu so you have to know what you want, this causes back ups in their drive thru line.
I’m giving you guys a 5 star just because your dounut are really good, but in my opinion you guys have lots of room for improvement, like making drive thru faster, you need a bigger place, and be more organized; I see everyone inside running into each other all the time...
It’s been a year of pandemic and you still can’t come in and order (which I understand) but why do you still not have a real menu in your drive through? I’m supposed to just sit there and guess every type of doughnut you have? Just so you can tell me you’re out or don’t make that one and act like I’m crazy for asking when you don’t have a menu.... lazy business
Yummy. Love all the flavors!!
I drove all the way from near Gurnee to get a dozen donuts, waited in line and are told theyre out. The donuts are delicious but how the heck is a 24 hour donut place out of their signature donuts? Disappointed. And the girl at the drive thru who told me didnt even apologize, just stared at me when she said she was out.
My wife turned me on to this place when we lived in Northern Illinois.We STILL get their donuts and we live over an hour away.Absolutely delicious and as good as advertised!
Freshes doughnuts ever, love them!❤
You can’t go wrong here! All the donuts I purchased were super delicious. Currently you can’t get inside the shop, but they have a drive through which makes up for the inconvenience.
Amazing donuts and extremely polite employees. If you get lucky, they will give you their day-old donuts for free before they waste them and throw them out. I prefer day old donuts and this is very nice of them...
Better than DD doughnuts made on site and fresh everyday.
Great local place! I wish they served their Pączki year round. Maybe except in the fall when they have their awesome apple cider donuts...
First time coming here and the ladies working were very polite and orderly. My order was quick and I had no complaints at all. Great job. Will be going back, donuts are amazing.
Has definitely went downhill dont go on a Saturday evening there will not be any donuts because they pack them up for the churches and make no fresh donuts until the following morning its morning same thing with Monday morning no donuts will be there Sunday night
Best donuts! Fresh and so good!! The staff is always friendly and helpful!! And theres a drive thru!
Always a wonderful selection, always wonderful staff, great Covid precautions
Their doughnuts are amazing. They melt in your mouth. Such a great selection! Definitely a family tradition and favorite.
Best donuts around and worth the trip. It can get crowded in the drive thru and sometimes the phone system cannot handle the volume but the reward of a fresh fluffy donut helps you forget.If you have not tried Country Donuts you should because other donut shops (DD ;)) cant compete.
Cant say anything bad about this location ever. Best donuts and great service. Sure there can be long waits, but its not their fault they have the best donuts I know.
Country Donuts is what America needs in every state! I say that with the utmost sincerity! If you are looking to find a homemade style of donut or anything donut related you can imagine you can find here. Delicious freshly made donuts available 24/7, with customer service that is served with a smile. The staff is extremely friendly attentive and an absolute pleasure to deal with. country donuts also provides catering; should you need it for business events, birthdays, or any special occasion. Run and operated by the owners themselves its the true quintessential small-town Mom and Pop shop in the modern era. If you havent treated yourself to country donuts take a moment and smell the freshly baked donut deliciousness servedfresh here, you wont regret it, because youll be coming back time and time again. Everyone at our office loves country donuts. Unlike some franchise donut shops these donuts are made on site and taste as good from the first bite to the last !
Our go to for the last few years. We live in Woodstock and our local bakery closed. Now we drive to Crystal Lake, Or Elgin if I am out that way to get Country Donuts.
A young girl named Brianna helped me at the drive-thru... Very sweet kid!! Good job Country Donuts!
Reputation is well deserved! Donuts were awesome!
The best donuts. Super friendly staff, very covid-19 convenient. Very difficult to drive past these places, no matter what time of day it is. I vote for donuts becoming a food group!
Best donuts around.
I stopped at Country Donuts after picking up my puppy from Bull Valley. For this city girl, Country Donuts is worth the pit stop! Somehow, their glazed donuts are crispy on the outside yet fluffy inside. Not too sweet and simply satisfying. Now, I dream about that donut and coffee combo. Its been months since I had those two perfectly baked/fried donuts and Im conjuring up excuses to make the drive again! See you soon!!!
I love their service and every time I go in the morning there are so fresh donuts especially I love the sugar and The Glades🥰😍
Best donuts in town. Way better than dunkin.
Awesome donuts. Currently drive thru or call ahead only. Worth the drive if youre not local.
They have tasty donuts.
Very good donuts.
Love the donuts. Love that they stay open 24 hrs.
The best donuts around!!! These donuts are made the way donuts should be made. I was a kid when Country Donuts first opened. I used to go in on Sundays with my neighbor, and watch them make the donuts. They still taste the same as they did 35+ years ago.
Absolutely love. And they are peanut free, which is great.
The staff are always nice and friendly!! Donuts and such are the BEST in town!
With this pandemic I loved that their drive thru was still open. This was my first time and I loved the red velvet donut 🍩
Best donuts in the area. They also have amazing gluten free blueberry muffins, the cinnamon rolls are so soft and sweet. They have delicious coffee and we recently saw that they have a huge pink sprinkle donut called the Texas ring that we need to try! The line is long to order but they do a great job at moving it along fast.
Best damn donuts period. Coffee is good as well.
They have very good cake donuts, open 24 hours, always fresh because they make it in small batches. They also have very good flavors and not as sweet..
We called ahead of time like their website asked and we waited almost 15min in the parking lot when we got there to have someone come to our car telling us they now only have 4 of the 12 donuts we ordered over the phone almost 30min. We thought since we ordered ahead of time, they would have boxed our donuts and had them ready when we got there. Nope! Then she asked if we wanted two chocolate long johns because they NOW have them, but didnt when we originally called. We said yes and that we would just do a half dozen. She brings us our donuts...there are NO chocolate long johns. DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE until the pandemic is over. Such a waste of our time and money. We thought we were doing things right and helping them by following their processes to call ahead. Nope, they dont care. I understand the current situation, but then dont ask customers to call ahead and say you can take orders. Ridiculous and very bad customer service. Especially on Mothers Day.
Always fresh and always good!
Donuts are amazing but not worth the rude service. Every time I’ve been there the staff is incredibly rushed and rude. It’s one thing to have fast efficient service, but this is not that. This is downright rudeness. Best donuts around, but not worth dealing with the rude staff in my opinion.
Delicious place, amazing donuts. Please please take pictures of your donuts and label them online for us new customers.
