I gave The Donut Stop a try based on a video from the STL Donut & Coffee Tour YouTube channel. Oh my, I'm glad I did!
I showed up on a Saturday bright and early at 4:30 am when they opened and was greeted by Tim. I picked out a dozen donuts to try and mentioned it was my first time in. He was super friendly and hooked me up with tasty looking selections.
The apple fritter was simply the best I've ever had. It was the perfect combination of a soft interior with crispy edges and covered with the best tasting glaze around. The fried croissant was delectable as well. They also have a specialty called the cinnamon glob, which is also amongst one of the most delicious bakery items I've ever had.
I started a fitness journey 9 months ago, and treat myself to occasional cheat days. Now my biggest worry is gaining all my weight back eating these delicious donuts. I tried 6 my first visit, and they were so good I drove 40 minutes round trip a second morning in a row to get 7 more when they opened the next day. This is one of the best donut shops in St. Louis! They're well worth the drive, I'm just lucky I'm an early riser and there's no traffic at 4 in...
Read moreBest Donuts In Town Hands Down. Never had a bad experience until today. They were out of Donuts at like 1145. All I said was you guys should put a sign on the door saying your out or either close early and she said "I Don't Care If You Walked Here Or Not If You Don't Like It You Don't Have To Come Here" I understand if it was a busy day, it's the first day of school, I get it. Should've just closed early if they couldn't keep up. They had no Glazed or Longjohns or Jelly Donuts and all they had was fritters and chocolate donuts. I messaged the Facebook page about it in a respectful manner and I got blocked in return. Was never trying to be a pain and they won't lose my business over something so silly, but the owner Tim needs to at least acknowledge what I'm saying and try to prevent this from happening in the future. Hey I'm just one guy in their eyes I'm sure...But I'm a loyal customer and always spread the word about the best Donuts in town. If she wouldn't have gotten rude, I never would've left this review in the first place. 5 stars still though, no hard feelings even though they blocked me...
