Krispy Kreme Doughnuts

This place is simply incredible. There is no better sweet treat than a Krispy Kreme doughnut hot off the line dripping with glaze. It melts in your mouth the second you bite into the warm, soft dough. If you install the KK app, you’ll get notifications from your phone when the hot light turns on. I’d drive anywhere to get the freshest, most delicious treat on earth. There’s nothing quite as mouthwatering!

By far the best doughnuts I have ever tasted. Fresh doesn’t even begin to describe how fluffy they are. It’s like eating a cloud! Well worth the hour drive!

Krispy Kreme Doughnuts isn’t quite as good as I remember. I met a friend for dinner nearby, so I thought «why not?»
While they score major points for being open late and having a drive-​thru, the doughnuts were just okay. Krispy Kreme is a lot better than Dunkin Donuts, since they make donuts fresh with soft, pillowy dough — but they are not nearly as good as other local favorites like County Donuts or the fancy gourmet shops.
The Triple Chocolate was really good with chocolate frosting, chocolate chips, and I forgot what put the «triple» in chocolate, but the filling was also delicious. This donut was heavy like a puck, but exactly how I remembered Krispy Kreme. The lemon filled was dwarf-​ish in size and just okay.
I was disappointed in the variety. Compared to the website, the actual store did not have nearly as many options.

Called to ask for prices since I couldn’t find any prices online for a dozen donuts. The guy that answered was African American and he was rude and interrupted me when I was talking. Dunkin donuts will get my business now.

This is my favorite place in the world! I bought 10 dozen doughnuts to go home and I literally felt like I had liquid gold sitting in my back seat.
Their doughnuts are so light and fluffy and I just love the glaze. Mmmmm. Yum.
Even their specialty doughnuts, I love how they glaze them and then put frosting over it. Super sweet, light, fluffy, just the way I like it.
This place is seriously heaven on earth.
Staff here is super nice and they’ll give you a whole free doughnut as a sample.
When you order doughnuts, you also get the freshest it can get, right off the doughnut cycle belt.

Ever have one of those days where you’re all dressed up & look really good then you drive by a Krispy Kreme & see the hot doughnuts now sign & then you end up buying a box & getting the glaze crumbs all over yourself? Yeah, me neither.
If you really want to feel like a degenerate & breath heavy you can go inside & watch the donuts come out hot & fresh on the conveyor belt. This place is one of the few Krispy Kreme restaurants that didn’t close down in the mid 2000’s. Every time you kind of forget about Krisy Kreme & then come here & have some it is so delicious & makes you want to dump a whole box on your entire head.
The service here has always been good & has always been fast. This place also serves coffee & different flavors of Krispy Kreme doughnuts. This place is also open late until 10 P.M. at night Monday thru Sunday. The inside is pretty cool because you can see the doughnuts being made & it is also very clean inside.
Overall the place is clean & the service is good. The Krispy Kreme doughnuts are the best in all of the land. I would definitely come here again if I was in the area & in the mood for a good snack.

Drive thru Krispy Kreme was great. We used a buy one dozen get one dozen free for $ 5.99 we got our doughnuts in like a second. It was fast and good.

Wow. So I accidentally drove past this place and I was surprised that there is a Krispy Kreme in the Chicago area. I do remember the Hanover Park location and when they left I thought it was the end of it.
Anyway, I came in and they offered me a free donut. I also had the raspberry jelly filled donut. I also had a black coffee. Straight black. I’m a blue collared polish catholic so I get my hands dirty so I only drink black coffee. The coffee and donuts were excellent.
The place was quite large and many sit down options. A definite must for all.

Their donut selection was small, granted we came around 5pm. Also, they did not give free sample which saddened us a little. To me it was a bit disappointed visit. Yea their donuts are good, but not great. I wouldn’t make a trip out of my way for Krispy Kreme. More novelty now than food quality. Service was subpar.

For the longest time I’ve been under the impression that Krispy Kreme had left the Chicago area. The other night when I was driving down a road I usually don’t drive down I happened to see the sign and did double take. Needless to say it’s the same Krispy Kreme experience you experienced around the country just closer to home. It turns out the only reason why this one still exists is because they do all the baking for the Chicago area. So whenever you’re at a grocery store or wholesale Club the Krispy Kreme donuts in those boxes are baked here.

I’m so glad there is a well kept Krispy Kreme so close to me. The location is perfect. I can stop here whenever I am traveling to/​from the suburbs to the city. It’s basically on the way.
They always have a great selection, and the staff are very friendly.
I will forever feel giddy whenever I see the hot light is on. Nothing like a delicious, WARM donut for free while you wait to order.
I’m glad out of all the closures in the suburbs this one remained. I can still get my Krispy Kreme fix!

this bakery location is the only one left in the area so if you are visiting, come and see how their donuts are made… you and your kids can witness the making process… kids get a free donut… call first to find out the times they make them… afterwards your kids will be bouncing everywhere due to all the sugar intake.,.

Though I pass by Elk Grove Village pretty regularly, I almost never find myself *in* EGV, which means I’ve never been to this Krispy Kreme, which is likely for the best since I have no self control.
I had to run an errand for work and found myself in the area. I hadn’t had breakfast yet, so this was the next logical step. I needed to get back to the office too, so the drive-​thru made this trip super convenient and quick.
I ordered a half dozen (2 Plain Glazed, 2 Maple Iced Glazed, and 2 Cinnamon Bun Glazed). They were all that I remembered and more. I was a happy camper. The Cinnamon Bun isn’t sticky, so it’s not as messy as a normal cinnamon roll. The Plain Glazed are basic but ridiculously light and fluffy. The Maple Iced Glazed was by far my favorite. All of them practically melted in my mouth.
Worth every calorie.

If it’s not fresh… throw them away! Jk don’t waste. But seriously so sad!
Sigh. Drive 40 miles RT in the snow to get these bad boys and sadly they were not serving fresh donuts.
But KK donuts are the best and if you have a craving you just HAVE to satisfy. Please bring a location to the city so I don’t have to jeopardize my life in the winter to get ma glazed donut on.

Was in the mood for Krispy Kreme doughnuts. I believe it started because I saw a delicious doughnut AD on their facebook page. I was so desperate that I traveled 30 minutes from my house to get me that doughnut! Only to realize, that this is the last Krispy Kreme in Illinois!!! Coming here, it’s no wonder why they are all closed.
First, the customer service was lacking — everyone looked like they didn’t want to be there. It took them a while to even take my order.
The selection of doughnuts was lacking and worst of all — they were all out of the regular glazed doughnut!!! Oh and to top it off, they were not hot and ready!!! I was so disappointed. The machine had broken down so all they were making were mini glazed doughnuts so I told them I would wait extra to have it hot and ready. Well I waited 15 minutes for the mini glazed doughnuts. When I sat down in the store to try one, they were room temperature! They were definitely not hot and ready.
Overall, I wasted my gas, time, and money coming here. I could have bought the Krispy Kreme box they sell in the stores! But it’s not the same as having it hot and fresh, melting in your mouth. Too bad I missed that experience. Worst of all, I may never have that experience again since this is the last store in Illinois and did not impress me.

*Note* store hours are actually 6am-​10pm
We came in here at about 1:30 in the afternoon on Monday. Shop was dead quiet and super clean.
It took a minute for an employee to greet us, but Nicole was AWESOME! She was well aware of how to use/​redeem our Groupon and was extremely fast (or well experienced) at what she was doing. There were two doughnuts excluded from our Groupon deal, so she mentioned those as well.
She checked us out quickly and have us a few Krispy Kreme hats to go.
This location is about a 20 minute drive for us, so we won’t frequent this establishment that often. However, if you’ve never been to a real Krispy Kreme restaurant, check-​out this location. Actual Krispy Kreme stores are few and far between.
If you can get your hands on a Groupon redeemable at Krispy Kreme, buy one (or three). We left with 2 doz. doughnuts for $ 8.50. Service is great (at least our experience was) and the dining area was exceedingly clean and tidy.
Very rarely do I find myself giving 5 stars to anything; especially to chain restaurants, but our Krispy Kreme experience was superb.

Who doesn’t love Krispy Kreme? Especially when the Hot Now sign is on. It’s like manna from heaven. When I saw the Hot Now sign I was so excited to go in. When I got out of my car, that scent filled the air making my craving double.
…only to walk in and realize there weren’t any hot now donuts. The sign is permanent but made to look like the neon sign. Boo. The donuts on the line were to be stuffed and frosted for later distribution. Boo again.
Anyway, as always a free glazed donut was in order as well an apple pie and «boston cream» bringing my total to only $ 2.40. Good value.
The glazed tasted great but were of course missing that fresh texture. The boston cream was OK at best. I would give it another shot. The apple pie was pretty good and stuffed to the brim with apple pie filling.
When you’re in the mood for a hot now Krispy Kreme make sure to call ahead. Then get moving because once you have one, you won’t want to move at all.

Time was when there were upwards of 15 KKDs around the Chicago area. Those times are gone. Thankfully one mega-​sized factory store remains near O’Hare on Devon.
When the hot light is on they’ll give you a free sample original glazed right off the conveyor belt. I maintain that the best donut is the glazed kreme filled though. It’s got this frothy light, um, ‘kreme’ inside that’s as if God himself powder sugared a cloud.
Service seems to be kind of slow surly «South side» style. Minus one star for that.

The last survivor in our area… when nothing but a REAL, fresh Krispy Kreme will do — we make the drive. Sure, there are plenty other donut shops popping up everywhere not that they are «in style» — but at their core, u know they’d love to make glazed donut as good as Krispy Kreme — so far they have failed.
Classic delicious, melt-​in-​your mouth donuts that don’t break the bank. We’ll be back for sure!

Dear Krispy Kreme,
Why did you have to close down so many stores? I miss having you close by, I miss seeing the hot-​light glowing, pulling me in to my local store.
Alas, I will occasionally take the 1.5 hour or so trip to Elk Grove Village in order to fulfill my craving for your soft deliciousness.
This particular Krispy Kreme is huge! It’s like restaurant size, not like the small ones I’ve been to in the past where it’s mainly just a display and the bakery in back. There’s A LOT of seating and the display of old K.K. memorabilia as you enter the front doors is pretty neat too. You gotta take a sec. and spy the K.K. wedding photo too… Ideas? I think YES!
We got the Double Dozen and a medium coffee for about $ 17 or so, they lasted about 2 days. after the 4^th day without we made plans to go back in a few weeks. Next time I think we’ll get a Double Double Dozen…
Please in the name of all that is sacred keep this location OPEN!
