Wow!! Talk about a great experience. We found the location very easily. It's very well marked with its name on the front and signage. We walked in and we were greeted by not one but 3 to 4 staff. People all with a smile and all very. We were as several times while we were standing there. If we were being waited on which we were. The staff person just went into the back to grab some other donuts. They have a very good variety of donuts with different flavors, different styles and different pastry textures as well as kolaches. They take your order and put all of your donuts in anything that you're ordering onto trays before they put it into a box to make sure that you can see exactly what you're getting and make sure that you have what you want. I would highly highly recommend the beignet donut bites. They were very soft and had a crunchy texture but it was absolutely perfect. The pricing was excellent. The location's excellent and all of the staff is definitely very, very kind and very willing to help. My hands down recommend this as a donut shop. Stop that you must make if you're in the area or you live in Des Moines.

I was in the area for an appointment and wanted donuts, I searched near where I was headed I looked up reviews and all positive. I got half a dozen French Beignets. Which I thought were delicious tasted fried and fresh and coated in powder sugar 🤤 I also got two Chocolate glazed Cronut (Croissant Donut) one was for me and my boyfriend. Let's just say they both ended up being mine. They were flaky and delicious as well. I had picked up a twisted long john covered in chocolate and fruity pebbles. I did not get a photo of that. But he enjoyed it. I would totally come back for the beignets and Cronuts. The customer service was friendly and fast. They also appeared to have a drive thru window. I would go early as they make things fresh daily for more of a variety of options. 10/10

We stopped by this no frills donut shop to abandon a New Year’s resolution to cut back on the carbs. It’s a small storefront with a half dozen tables in an area of Des Moines where new residential apartment buildings are popping up, just adjacent to Downtown. We tried the classic glazed, which did not disappoint. The chocolate twist was standard. The cinnamon roll was the fan favorite. Next time we will probably request a filling — like the Bavarian or the white fluffy lemon. 3 donuts and two colas: <$10

Absolutely incredible donuts and cronuts— a must-visit!

ChuChus Donuts blew me away from the first bite! Their cronut bites are on a whole different level — flaky, buttery, and crisp on the outside, with soft, airy layers inside that just melt in your mouth. Each one has that perfect golden crunch that gives way to rich, indulgent goodness. They’re sweet without being overpowering, and every bite feels like a little piece of pastry heaven.

I also tried their cake donuts, and they deserve just as much praise. Moist, dense in the best way, and full of flavor — all had that homemade taste that feels both nostalgic and elevated. Not overly greasy, just perfectly balanced.

The staff was friendly, the shop was clean, and the selection was fresh, get there early, or they may be sold out. Whether you’re a cronut connoisseur or just love a good donut, ChuChus is worth every visit. I’ll be coming back — probably more often...
