Stan's Donuts & Coffee — Restaurant in West Chicago Township

This Stan's Donuts & Coffee sits on my run route headed downtown Chicago. Every time I run past it, I am always tempted to say the hell with the run and just go and have a donut instead. If I ended up doing that then I would have had to walk back towards the starting point of my run as a result of the indulgence. I knew that at some point I would give in and visit this location whether it be during or post completion of a run because it always catches my eye.

While looking at their menu via Yelp, I noted that they had a plant-based sausage, egg, and cheese sandwich which built that interest to visit post completion of my run. So, via Yelp, I ordered their Plant-Based Sausage, Egg & Cheese Stanwich w/ a Iced Tea (Black Tea). I smirked prior to picking my order up while looking at the donuts because I knew that I was not leaving without purchasing one. If I were an emoji, I would have definitely been the emoji with hearts in replace of my eyes because those donuts had my interest. I ended up getting the Vegan Chocolate Donut because it is vegan, and the fact that I couldn't recall ever having vegan chocolate.

The Plant-Based Sausage, Egg & Cheese Stanwich was sloppy! Or at least the egg portion of it, but overall, it was delicious! Now that I have discovered that Stan's has a plant-based sandwich option I am quite positive I will visit either of its locations in the city of Chicago for it again. And as for the Vegan Chocolate Donut, I had the biggest smirk on my face after taking each enjoyable bite of it.

I had a pleasant ordering experience at this Stan's Donuts & Coffee location. And as stated in this review, I enjoyed my meal and would surely order from again whenever in the area or at any other Stan's location throughout the city of...

My first Chicago stop on my never-ending tour through America's donut landscape. I happened upon Stan's after trekking through blocks of Chicago's frigid, gritty cityscape and was welcomed by it's yummy interior scent and warmth. The person working the counter was incredibly friendly and cheerful and made my visit all the more pleasant and waited for me to make my selections without any pressure.

I chose a chocolate frosted and a buttermilk bar. The chocolate frosted was decent but the chocolate was a bit too rich for my taste. The buttermilk bar, however, was magnificent, a paragon of the buttermilk genre and a demonstration of how buttermilk donuts continue to be go unrecognized as one of the most dependable and delectable donut varieties.

I got a chai before I left, which...

Management if you have cameras please play back your footage at 7 AM on 10/07/19. Dora the manager has zero customer service, your system screwed up on a catering order and Dora the explorer couldn’t comprehend serving the customer. She literally avoided helping the customer on every level including telling her it wasn’t possible to re-order more donuts at that location even though the customer would request a refund on the mistake later, I tried to intervene with a simple solution and Dora was extremely combative, argumentative and straight rude. I will never be going back to that location again as long as Dora is...
