Reviews of Strange Donuts
Barb Dineen
Service wasn't very friendly this time. The cake donuts were delicious but the cinnamon roll was very dry unfortunately. Unusal experience this go around. Will try again and hope for a more welcoming customer service person.
Tim Phelps
Just plain old donuts. They were okay. I didn't like them only having display donuts, instead of showing them all in a case. It's just nice to see what you're getting.
Jeffrey Lowe
Strange Donuts is a wonderful donut shop! I have been going there for years since they first opened and they have only gotten better over the years! They are a fun, caring place and I love their dones! Especially their Stranger, like the one in the picture, that involves a collaboration with other local restaurants! These guys are amazing! Definitely go here!
Dob Dobbin
Amazing local donut shop with vegan options. Make sure that you call ahead to reserve ahead, if some vegan donuts are what you are after. They will sell out first mainly due to how delicious they are. Don't miss out on testing your sweet tooth at this nice little donut shop. Must visit if in the area.
Curtis Windle
Always love seeing what new flavors they have. The Dunkaroo done was exactly what I hoped for! The staff is always friendly and helpful. Get there early if you don't want to miss a flavor!
Kessashun Arthur
Conceptually, this place is very unique and trendy. They have some really interesting and often superb flavor combinations. Their raised donuts have a very good texture, with excellent balance between firmness and softness. The cake donuts have a decent texture: the chocolate ones tend to have a little moisture, while the vanilla ones which they build many of their creations/strangers on top of tend to be really dry and flavorless. They allow the excellence of the toppings to dominate, but I'd like to see them put a little more effort into the heart of the donut, which is the DOUGH! Despite this critique, I've had enough excellent donuts here to give them a well-deserved 4 stars!
Ashley Lumpkin
I love the idea and the pictures online look incredible. However, the $1 donuts from donut drive in are better. For the high price tag we were expecting better quality.
Adam Coggins
The kids working the counter was super nice and helpful. The donuts were great, particularly the glazed one. The cake donuts were just a little bit on the dry side but I'm willing to attribute that to us arriving later in the morning.
The gooey butter cake donuts were a standout for me.
Get a coffee to go with it. They are very sweet.
Kaitlyn Brown
Overall good experience. Very friendly staff and a nice location.
The interesting thing about this place is that every month they change up their flavors. There are a couple that stay regardless of the month (i.e. long johns and rainbow sprinkles), but the others disappear after a month. This can be a great way to change up the flavors and get to try something new! However, it can also somewhat disheartening when you find one you love.
Alan D
We stopped here last month after visiting my wife's cousin in Florissant, and the donuts are amazing! I had the Maple Bacon which had the perfect mix of salty and sweet. My wife and our daughters shared the Butterfinger one, which they loved! I tried a bite and it was delicious. Keep up the great work!
B
They often have new flavors, but they go fast in the mornings! Their staff seems to be just as fun as their donuts, so be sure to checkout their social media! (Maybe not for you if you’re a Karen)
Mark Zeman
I have a terrible weakness for donuts, and this place does not disappoint. All sorts of novel flavors. The only difficulty is choosing which dozen you're going to binge eat in one sitting and then deciding how many laps you have to swim to burn them off.
Callie Koehr
The girl inside was very nice and friendly!
I got the ding dong donut. I thought there would be more buttercream. It wasn’t until I was almost done eating it (at the edge of the donut) that there was cream. The majority of the donut was dry. I kind of felt like I wasted my calories on something that wasn’t very good.
Ashling Ryan
My favorite donut place! Everything is delicious and the staff is so friendly.
Madi Lyons
I always love coming here, their donut flavors are all so good and never feel too heavy for me. I wish there was a daily menu on their website to show which flavors were available that day, but I'm honestly never disappointed when I go in.
Dwight Ong
Mediocre at best. Ordered 6 different doughnuts and only 1 of them was really good (which was a chocolate flavored one). The rest were very meh and some even had a weird after taste. Even their signature blue doughnut with sprinkles wasn't too amazing to come back for. Probably won't go back (except for that one particular doughnut) and would rather go to the supermarket for better tasting doughnuts.
Alexia Canada
Great donuts! Corky flavors and social media posts are funny with a bit of dark humor! Not for boring or easily offended people (Cough cough Karen’s), the donuts or their social media.
Daniel Morgan
The donuts are really good! I called ahead and the donuts were ready when I got there and I was in and out quickly!
A few critiques: The gooey butter cake tasted just like a generic frosted donut. The "coffee cake" donut is not coffee cake. It's a coffee flavored donut. Coffee cake is generally a cinnamon streusel cake. Otherwise, it was all pretty good!
Summer
As someone with food allergies, places like this make me feel safe and understood. The recent uproar from Karens who think food allergies are a genuine disability is just goofy. This place's honesty and relatable marketing makes it a solid 10/10.
Christopher Collins
I'm leaving a 5 star review to combat the whiny Karens that can't take a joke about peanut allergies. Strange donuts is awesome. Go cry about it Karens. I'm going to eat a peanut butter sandwich and laugh at you.
Brooke Inman
So GOOD and FRESH! I don’t typically get creative when it comes to donuts so it took me awhile to try. When I read the owners story and how it all came to be, I wanted to support the local business. Awesome business to support and great tasting donuts. Even the “strange” combinations will surprise you with how well the flavors go together. Very quick service too.
Laina Marie
I warmed the chocolate-iced chocolate cake donut in the microwave and it was SO good! But, the standard glazed donut was disappointing. The glaze cracked so easily that most of the glaze fell off of the donut (but it's possible that this was due to me warming the donut in the microwave).
I walked in expecting the prices to be high, because their flavors are creative like Da Vinci's donuts, but the prices weren't bad at all. The chocolate-iced chocolate cake donut was definitely a good value!
Dennis Hood
Wonderful donuts in a variety of interesting flavors. The staff in the evening is super friendly and informative and you can tell they have an interest in their trade. I enjoy the cleverness of the donut ingredients and the clothing with donut themes. Save room after eating in the area and stop by here for dessert.
Deejay Blue
I picked these up for a friend's family who had a dog hospitalized. It was nice to see that they only allowed 2 groups of people in at a time. The cashier was super kind and super personable. All in all it was a perfect adventure. Thanks for everything.
Eris Brigedon
Heard good things about Strange Donuts so the family and I decided to give it a try. I ordered the Maple-Bacon Donut. It was delicious. It was such a yummy, 'breakfast-like,' cakey, sweet, salty, fantastic donut. It felt like eating pancakes with syrup and bacon with a donut altogether! Can't wait to come back and try another sometime.
Rachel Sarino
Their unique flavors are the best kind of donuts! And they are always so moist and fresh even if we pick them up at 11pm. We recommend gooey butter but always try the special, so far we have never been disappointed.
Patty Welten
Grandson loved his first donut from Strange donuts
Richard Stratton
Updating my review based on the new dough recipes they're using (changed in fall of 2019). My one complaint for Strange was their base dough, which didn't do justice to their creative toppings and spirit. The updated dough is excellent and competitive with any other bakery in the area. I've always loved their attitude and concept and I will now be going there regularly. Great work guys!
Emily Paul
These donuts are so good!!! They change out the strange flavors and every time I go in I basically get one of everything and even the strangest ones that sound like they wouldn't be good (ie gushers) is always amazing! It's nothing fancy inside but the donuts are the star of the show anyways! Worth a try...it won't be your last time!
April Wright
Recently went in for a maple bacon donut and was not disappointed. Easily the best donut shop in the city. We are blessed.
Chase McDowell
Walked here from my apartment, waited in line for 10 minutes (only 1 person/couple in the store at a time for social distance) 3 donuts and 2 nitro coffees for under 10 bucks. Awesome experience. My only gripe is that there should be a bigger size for the coffee for us caffeine addicts. Love this place!
Robert Gentry
Don’t listen to these bad reviews these Karen’s don’t know how to take a joke and they’ve probably never been to this place. As someone with a food allergy I find what they did fantastic. People just need to grow up and stop being so sensitive
Ashley Lester
Best doughnuts in STL hands down! They even have vegan doughnuts sometimes for those with dairy allergies! Great place, great service, even better doughnuts!
Speckeye
They bring something as strange to the donut scene as voodoo. The donuts are high quality and the selection is not what you'd get from dunking elsewhere. It can be a little more expensive than other places and not everyone is into maple bacon but still a good place overall.
Ben S
Strange Donuts certainly does excel in its variety of flavors, though the particular variety on a given day is limited to a handful of flavors and the quality of each flavor can vary significantly. The physical location of the shop is a bit claustrophobic, with only room for about 10 people before the line is out the door. The line also moves slowly since you can only really see the selection once you've gotten to the register. Overall, I feel that Strange Donuts is a bit overhyped.
Alan Lanzer
I was worried about going here after seeing a few of the bad reviews on Google, but after checking them out for myself I had to leave a great review. I went to Strange Donuts with my girlfriend around 10:30 on a Saturday halfway expecting the donuts to be dry since they were close-ish to closing time, but they were very fresh and very good. The staff was also very friendly and went out of their way to make both of us feel welcome. We will definitely check them out again for some strange flavors!
Katie Baylie
Strange Donuts is one of my favorite places in town.The staff is always incredibly friendly and helpful, even when the line is crazy, which it usually always is, at least late at night when I go. Every time I've gone the donuts have been fresh and delicious and I've never been disappointed. I've taken friends form out of town here and they loved it as well. I am not sure where everyone else seems to be going. I love this place!
Maggie Sherrill
Great donuts! Love the variety and monthly changes.
The people who work there are friendly, fun, and enthusiastic.
Highly recommend!
Sean Linhares
Amazing customer service and the donuts were delicious!!
Richard Lumsden
Have heard that this place had some good donuts. Well I found out how good they are, at least the one I tried, blueberry cheesecake. First off WOW!!! It was awesome. Great texture and sweet sweet flavor packed into a delicious gift from the donut Gods themselves. Highly recommend this place.
nicolette tredway
Three stars because they do have vegan donuts available sometimes, but they aren't the best. From all the hype I expected something more. The workers are very sweet and they did have the vegan donuts when I went in after calling about it the night before. I wish they tasted better, but it's nice having the option.
J McKee Photography
Strange Donuts has the most amazing donuts in St. Louis! You can also get gift cards for the office and family and friends! We love the unique flavors and they have something for everyone like the classics and then the Lavender Lemonade, PD Datties or Chocolate Guinness donut!
Tom Check
Strange is.... well.... strange. I have to say that hands down - the interactions I have here are some of the most entertaining and friendly in town. It seems like every employee is genuine, fun, and not afraid to talk.
The donuts selection rotates monthly and always has some oddballs that are fun and some that are outrageous. If you are feeling frisky ask what the 'Stranger' of the day is - it will be something outlandish.
My only problem with Strange is that, as much as I love the interactions I have here, I rarely actually love the donuts. I don't know if it's the way that they have to make vegan donuts or what, but they are often dry and rely heavily on frostings/fillings to come up with moisture and flavor. Also, most filled donuts disappoint when it comes to quantity of filling.
The chocolate cake donut is the safest bet on a regular basis.
Great company (which supports a rad non-profit called Strange Cares), great fun, and meh donuts.
Clint Hess
Strange is one of my favorite places in St. Louis, PERIOD. They've redefined the donut industry with their atmosphere. I suggest getting to their location early. It's a popular spot, and their donuts are not unlimited. The weekends are a great time to go. Their "Stranger" of the week is a donut fused with some other food from a local eatery. Sometimes they sound disgusting, but end up being one of my favorites.
I highly suggest the Blueberry Cheesecake or Mexican Hot Chocolate dones. Their donuts are generally seasonal and the menu changes monthly, so you may not get a Mexican Hot Chocolate until winter time, but it's my favorite by far.
Their coffee is roasted by Kaldi's Coffee. GET THIS COFFEE. I consider myself a coffee snob and, I have to tell you, I buy a bag of these whole beans the moment I run out. It has an incredible flavor.
Zach Moskow
Look really good and employees were amazing and fun to joke around with. The donuts were okay but the frostings on them made up for the dryness. In general though donuts are a very different kind of dessert, so don't expect a brownie like substance, expect dough and kind of dry.
Domenic Apice
My friend and I had a great laugh at how average these overhyped donuts were. We arrived pretty early in the day but were still told that the selection was slim due to us showing up so late.....? I'm not too crazy about the shop as there's nowhere to sit down and eat your overpriced flour, however the employees were awesome and very friendly. Perhaps too friendly as they stopped a dog owner from tying his dog to a lamp post outside and encouraged him to bring the dog into the shop. I love dogs to my core, but I never want to find a dog in my donut that would be traumatizing albeit cute. The hunt for the world's best donuts will never end at strange donuts; a previous reviewers comparison to gas station donuts was ridiculously accurate.
Lindsey
Strange but cute little shop in Maplewood that has friendly staff and vegan donuts on the weekends! Wish they had them all week long! I stop by here as often as I can for a fresh tasty donut (or a dozen). Their vegan chocolate long johns are nothing short of amazing. The vegan donuts run out fast so call them before heading over (they may not have any left).
Michael Liu
Phenomenal place to get donuts! I went once and was going to get a dozen, but chatting with Matt behind the counter convinced me to double it. Wonderful staff and just very strange donuts indeed. My favorite is definitely the "You so fancy!" Donut. Apples and brie and pastry. Oh my!
Jaemi Littrell
This isn’t your normal donut shop, they have the most unique donuts. Do yourself a favor and get the gooey butter cake donut YUM!
Katie
good place to try unique flavors you won’t find anywhere else. for over $2 a donut I can’t say i’m wowed.
Cheryll Ladnier
just moved to St Louis and my work power gal pals said don't you dare show up with out some doughnuts, I found Strange Donuts on the web and thought, this will satisfy them! boy was I right, these are fabulous! its a shame they are on my way to work, no one needs to extra pounds. They are worth it, and the young man at the counter was a delight! this is a must stop for everyone!!
Camie Terry
Went to Strange Donuts for the first time today! It looked, smelled, and tasted sooooo good! Be prepared to buy at least a dozen so you can try them all! Get there early in the day so the donuts are fresh and while supplies last!
Jeremy Wilson
Very fun and interesting donuts. If you're wanting donuts that you've tried before and that you know you like, this probably isn't where you want to be. But if you like cake donuts and want to try different flavors that you probably have never had on a donut, it can't be beat.
Thomas Coriell
Creative donut offerings, but they come at a price!!!! The donuts seem to be on the cake side of the donut spectrum, and the consistency of the donut is definitely unique. Enjoyable but not worth the dough you've got to shell out for them.
Georgia
Ordered the vanilla and gooey butter cake doughnuts. Great doughnuts with coffee. Thick & not overly sweet. I will be back.
The Dobermom
I was kind of bummed. I read all these wonderful reviews of unique and niche treats, but there were only 3 donuts varieties available and they were all dry and bready.
Bob Beckring (frobbotzim)
The donuts weren't as strange as we'd hoped, but they were tasty enough. Gooey butter donuts were a bit dry but perked up nicely when dunked in tequila. Coconut cream donuts just got coconut bits in our drink and didn't really benefit from the experiment. A tequila filled donut would live up to the Strange Donuts name. If only. We'll visit again in hopes that perhaps that idea will have some legs.
Brittany King
So I work at Total Access Urgent Care, and it has been such a busy season for us. Not expecting it at all we get a visit from Strange Donuts who dropped off a variety of there delicious donuts. This really made our day! THE PERFECT TIME FOR A SUGAR HIGH. Thank you guys again sooooooooo muchhhhhhh for the donuts :) :) :)
Katie Hallock
I got to try a new donut! Well, a donut that was new to me. It was a yeast donut with a cream filling, peanut butter glaze and chocolate sprinkles. The cream tasted just like the pudding you can buy pre-made at the grocery - to me, it has this underlying flavor of plastic. So, I wasn't crazy about that....but the peanut butter glaze was the perfect flavor to help cover that up!
Lisa
Donuts are always delicious and fresh Maple bacon and gooey butter are my staple go tos and then I love trying the new monthly flavors. You won't find nicer or more helpful staff, I would imagine I'd be that pleasant if I was constantly surrounded by donuts too.
Madeline Rossy
Love their donuts, some of the best! But literally always sold out when I'm able to come. I know that's a good thing, it means they're delicious, but it's frustrating for customers.
Fig Beebo
I love Strange Donuts because it's the only place I can get a maple bacon donut, a gooey butter donut, a Butterfinger donut, or any other thing you could possibly imagine (call ahead, because they only make certain donuts certain days & the menu is ever changing!)
Got a picky (boring) friend? They still have plain old iced long Johns (called "Fat Steves", of course), donut holes, & sprinkle donuts for them. You have to go here at least once!
Johnnie Lambert
How can you possibly go wrong at this place? Of course they have all the standard stuff but you really have to step into the strange category to get the good experience this is the first place I've ever been that gave me a donut with real maple syrup and a piece of bacon right on top. Absolutely amazing experience. Sugar Rush with a personality
April Mathews
Go to Strange for the experience, not the donuts necessarily. It's a fun place, and they've done a GREAT job marketing which keeps you coming back every weekend for the newest "stranger". They keep it elusive with the "9pm til sold out" hours. It's all about the experience here. I realized early on that, while not the best donuts in the world, I keep on going back for some reason. Why is that? It's because they make you feel like you just HAVE TO GO every week! They are great at pumping you up via social media and when you get there it's just so exciting to wait in a line and HOPE they still have what you want by the time you get there. It's all about supply and demand. I'm never "let down" by the donuts, but by now I just know what I'm getting with strange. The "strangers" are hit or miss. They make really great cake donuts, but there traditional yeast donuts are a must-skip. Nothing beats a warm Krispy Kreme original glazed... nothing. I have had a few that I just love there, snickerdoodle, strawberry-filled with chocolate on the top... mostly I just go to try something new and vibe of the atmosphere. I think they have a great idea and a great brand, just maybe need to hone in on perfecting the recipes a bit, having a bit less dry, moist delicious donuts. All in all, I'll keep going back and supporting this business because I love the concept and their drive!
Timothy Hertel
Oh man. Oh man. OH MAN! I am SO glad I found this place. The vegan donuts are downright AMAZING. I have had some Strange and I LIKE IT! Dairy free donuts from Strange have made me the happiest person on Earth. Thank you so so so much Strange Donuts!
Lucas Fleming
These donuts are literally so delicious and expensive I had to unfollow their Instagram. Do check it out though, as the weekly “Stranger” is almost always a total knockout. The everyday menu won’t disappoint either, and I’m told they recently started frying their doughnuts in the more traditional manner, making them even more heavenly. Try to arrive just as they open so you can grab a warm one, and definitely bring friends so you can try them all!
Tom Wilkinson
Went on a Thursday night and tried the gooey butter donut and the pumpkin donut. The gooey butter donut tasted like popcorn butter, and some of my friends hated it while others thought it was really tasty. The pumpkin donut was good, but fairly standard.
For "Strange" donuts though, I was expecting more strange concoctions. Basically all the donuts were cake donuts, and the ones that we did try were okay, but not insanely good or original. Most of them turned out to be just donuts with some random stuff on top.
Didn't get to try the chicken donut being a vegetarian. :( But that one looked interesting.
Thomas Christian
Unusual, Friendly, Yummy
Everyone loves donuts (or doughnuts), right?!? Well these aren't your grocery store, DD, KK, and typical neighborhood shop. When you get bored with those, you just pop on over to Strange and come with hunger and an open mind and you will be mind blown at the flavor combos most of which you likely never imagined and may wonder how anyone ever did. You definitely need to check them out.
Jonathan Spencer
Awesome donut creations through collaboration with top-notch restaurants around St. Louis. While their plain donuts hold their own in St. Louis' very competitive donut scene, these people take the art of donutry to a whole new level. Stay Strange.
C. D. Thornton
Place is awesome. We had to get a large number of vegan doughnuts on short notice, and they nailed it. Coffee isnt terrible either. Parking can suck, but it's worth it.
Nicole Michelle
Totally satisfies your sweet tooth. Love warming them up for a few seconds and eating with a bowl of soft ice cream, yum! So good I wish I could eat a dozen at a time!
Christopher Ramos
Vegan donuts! Came here on national donut day and left with some delicious peanut butter & cookie topped vegan donuts. Awesome taste and looked like they had great non-vegan options as well.
Alicia Padilla
Always love stopping here to get some fun flavored donuts. I love that they're open late and that they rotate flavors frequently. If you like cakey donuts then definitely try these!
Michael Dorris
Strange Donuts always has unique dones to choose from. Each time I visit, there is something different. If you're not afraid of trying new things, and if you like quirky, then definitely visit Strange Donuts!
Kay Z
I love this place so much!!! Always a unique assortment of super tasty donuts! Obviously one could also opt for any classic flavors, as well. My personal favorite is the maple bacon. 😍😍😍 …
Andrew Totsch
Donuts for all, vegan gluten free, neither. Always great service.
Zachary Rheinecker
I always make it a point to stop by Strange Donuts when I visit St. Louis. Their donuts are the best around. I like the unique flavors and combinations they come up with. Highly recommend checking this place out!
Shannon LaBarre
I was surprised by this place having such good reviews. The doughnuts were only okay. I think most people get excited since they are open late, but think about who would be getting doughnuts late, I am pretty sure their judgment is impaired from their bar hopping night.
Stevie Pinkerton
All the above! Was just in there the morning of 4-2-15 and loved the maple bacon and powder sugared strawberry jelly donuts! But the best thing was the dark haired fella working had on the greatest selection of music, Chet Faker! Pulled him up on spotify immediately and love at 1st note. Thanks for the great taste in music!
Booj sN
I thought the donuts were really good the service was good and the girl who helped us was very helpful.
Sean Carpenter
I always have a great experience at Strange. Every employee I've met knows the flavers of every product they sell and is very personable. The young woman with dyed hair was very helpful once when I delivered for Postmates. Thanks!

Rays donuts is a break off of the delicious Lamar's donuts in Kansas City. They specialize in large fluffy donuts. About twice the size of a Krispy Kreme. Two donuts from them will fill up Any reasonable person for breakfast. The shop is spacious, so if you eat there, you won't feel rushed to clear your table for somebody else.
Jeffrey Brodzinski
Yas! Always a stop when I’m in St.Louis. The only thing better than their social media are their donuts. They keep the scene fresh with monthly specials, but maintain the core offerings like gooey butter Incase you have visitors from out of town and want to kill to St. Louis birds with one “done.” They Get Customer service and community involvement. I have no issue spending my time, money or calories here. It’s all kinds of right.
Matt Evan
I have been to donut shops all over the Midwest including St. Louis area. You name it, Greenbush Madision WI, Doughnut Vault Chicago, Donut drive-In Stl. This place rocks! If its your first time I would stick with a few classics of course. The reception is very helpful and will make a variety box for you. If you are willing to push the envelope they make unique donuts each week! Their 1st Phorm pronut cinnamon roll was awesome! Orange mimosa dones yum! Peanut buttercup/butter cream filled (Better known as the druken fat baby) made with 4 hands beer, outrageous good! Dont listen to chumps that dog this place. If you are in STL. This is the place da be! Not to mention Maplewood enclave is such a cool place to hang out.
Chef Kitchen Penus
They must be amazing because we picked some up on the way to Gus' Fried Chicken, forgot them on the table and came back for them 45 SECONDS LATER to nothing but excuses about our magically disappearing donuts. Carjacked, rained out baseball game and donutjacked all in the same week.. guess I should just stay home.
Amra Softic
The vegan option (vanilla with chocolate frosting) seemed very plain and like little effort was put in. The other non-vegan donuts seemed to have a lot larger variety of flavors and toppings.
Emily Cadwell
Like the atmosphere and music. Harold's donuts are classic, but can get boring because they never have anything new. The two stores fill opposite niches. Strange's hours are way better. I get up early but it's hard to park downtown and meter maids make me avoid it during the day because who carries quarters? So don't usually go unless I will be there for awhile in the evening. Harold's is just not easy with my work schedule. Yet the problem with cake donuts is they dry out rapidly at either store - so early morning is still best. If a cake donut is dry...I just throw it away.
Jill Saunders
This is not just a donut shop, this is an experience. First, follow these peeps on Instagram @strangedonuts, then set aside your Thursday night and make it a party. Thursday nights are when they introduce "strangers," which are their amazingly fun donut creations. These creations are concocted usually after they partner with a St. Louis-area restaurant and even though the names may sound strange, it's worth going and giving them a taste because they are usually DEElicious.
Strange Donuts makes super moist, cakey perfectly flavored regular donuts as well on every day of the week, so stop by and grab a Fat Elvis, Majestic Unicorn, Gooey Butter or Logo Done - there's a Strange Donut for EVERYONE!
Erika M
I got here late so the options were limited, but the donuts I got were great! I can't wait to go back and try new flavors
Barney Badass
Show me another place where you can get scrumptious concoctions with an edge in St Louis. Gooey Butter Donut better than most Gooey butter cakes but if they have any cheesecake creation then jump on it!
Jeremiah Robertson
HIGHLY recommend them and their maple bacon donut. Also, love their advertising
Daniel Voyles
Very cute little shop with decadent donuts and some normal. Staff was very helpful and patient. Definitely a place to stop for a sugar and carbs fix!
Richard B
Great environment and friendly staff! The vegan donuts were amazing, they only had one vegan option but it was totally worth getting nine of them.
Maria L
After trying five donuts (three cake, two not), I concluded that the donuts were denser and drier in the middle than they should be. The toppings were yummy. I ate the tops and left the rest. C+
Mike L.
They have some very weird donuts, but they are all very delicious. This is a top shelf donut shop, if you could put a donut shop on a shelf.
Brian Goldstein
There is not one bad thing I can say about Strange Donuts. The Dones, from classic to creative to just out there in concept, are all amazing and there's no better sweet in town (only equally tasty alternatives).
Ben Frentzel
Strange is in a whole new class of donut shops that take great pride in their craft. They're the first dones we tried when we moved to STL, and they are definitely the best!
jr moore
I love the donuts. The mappple bacon is my favorite. I love going in there because the people that work there seem like they wanna be there. That is rare anymore. I hope this business keeps prospering.
Amy K
Always love strange donuts. Employees are always super nice and they usually don't run out of any particular type. Fat steves and rainbow ponies for life!
Forrest
You can't go wrong with Strange Donuts. Always coming up with new and crazy donut flavors. Gooey butter cake donuts are a must try

Honestly, a bit of a letdown. There were only a few donuts left when we got there, and they weren't as tasty as I had hoped. I really wanted to like this place because the branding is so fun and unique!
Andrew Altrichter
Best donuts I've had in years.
Seth Scarborough
Always good donuts. All their donuts are cake donuts and they always (of course) have something unique and interesting. Employees are always awesome polite and friendly.
Dakota Dancy
Want some strange treats? Strange donuts has you covered. They offer classics, originals, and new creations. They even partner with local business to come up with a strange donut!
Dañiel Luna-Fuller
Fancy donuts. Very fluffy.
Wish they had a powdered cake, because their cake donut by itself would be amazing.
Jim Marciano
Insanely unique donuts, worth the trip...also have gluten free and vegan options
Charli Lynne
Please do not fire someone over a joke. You guys are doing great! 10/10 would give my money to you
Nate Merhaut
Not your typical donut place, hence the name. Lots of unique flavors, but the best one is definitely the gooey butter donut! Very friendly staff too!
Mike Noirot
Very good and they change the selection daily. The donuts are larger than average and not of your normal variety. Open late on the weekend.
Christine Poss
Nom nom nom. Great donuts and such unique flavors. Loved it and look forward to the next trip.
Duane Mabry
These were not donuts but rather large cakes to be consumed over several days. The place was worth ther visit for sure.
Mac Daddy
Claudia rocks. Great customer service. Love the food! Amazing that they are open most of the time. Pink floyd donut for the win.
Lana K
These donuts are the good kind of strange, and delicious, and fluffy, and fun! One of my STL favorites.
yadira gonzalez
The rainbow pony is a favorite, along with the blueberry cheesecake donut (which is only seasonal) the tres leches donut is also amazing.
Ryan Freeland
Great place to find creative creations. Best ones always end up being their collaboration dones!
Ashleigh Hammond
Amazing donuts! Never can go wrong with a Strange Donut !! Ive been going a long time and they have not once disappointed me.
Thiru
Bakery in Maplewood, Missouri. People talk about gooey butter cake donut, blueberry cinnamon roll and blueberry cheesecake donut. Great place to enjoy.
John Roland
We grabbed a box of gluten free (available on weekends) coconut donuts. They were delicious, but what kind of a degenerate decided to only make coconut?
Steven L (Sub_Sonic-SAL / SLAM9591)
Dare I say, better than Krispy Kreme? Yes. Better than Krispy Kreme. And any other donut place. Huge variety. Awesome staff. Love going here. Never had a single issue.
Bethany Walmer
Strange has the best Gluten free Donuts!!
JB B
Strange Donuts, I like the donuts pretty much. Some are a little too dense but others are quite good. Jason is a cool dude too!
Tega Edwin
I liked the donuts, it just didn't live up to expectations. The maple bacon is definitely a favorite.
Brittany Berg
Friendly staff with creatively delicious donuts... They have a few more traditional for those a bit less adventurous so something for everyone
Mickel Townsend
Very nice donut shop it's a knockoff of voodoo donuts from Portland OR They need to improve their donut dough but flavor combinations are excellent
Justin Muench
Definitely my favorite donut place in st. Louis. I love that they have vegan Donuts on the weekends. I love you strange Donuts!
Josh Houseman
Always the best dones in stl. Bockman knows what up. Thanks for always serving stl!
Patrick Wilson
Mmmmmmmm Tasty donuts. They're simply great: a fresh, fluffy taste on the inside and a bit of a crisp freshness to the outside. Awesome creations!
Sunshine Graves-Osborn
Pricey but thick donuts with some unusual flavors. Worth at least one visit while you're in St. Louis.
Kim Will
The have vegan donuts everyday. Now for my next part, I mean the donuts are ok, but they really sacrifice the taste for the look.
Gregory M
Strange donuts has unique one of a kind donuts, I had the blackberry Oreo cheesecake one and it was fantastic!
John Newingham
The most awesome people work here. Great atmosphere. Order the Stranger - a very creative donut that changes every weekend.
Brian Adler
Not a huge selection - in fact it's pretty small. Come early in the day to get the actual "strange' donuts, though! They're pretty good.
Chuck Miller
Not so strange donuts, and wow! The price, ok to try once to say "hey been there" but thats about it! I mean my local IGA, makes stranger donuts there.
Danielle Davis
You do not want to know the calorie connect of these delicacies. Even the blueberry cheesecake don't was delicious and I don't like Blueberries
Brad Walters
Delicious donuts in the quaint and fun Maplewood area. This is one of my favorite establishments in Maplewood and I try to stop by every time I am back in the area.
Drake Maret
Great dones, & Great People,.. I am a real estate agent and before Saturday morning showings I surprise my clients with strange donuts and milk! My clients love it!
Alwaysget Betterstronger
We stumbled upon this gem. Of course the d's are great. But wait there's more... the staff was friendly and welcomed us to the StL area with a list of suggestions of places to check out with the kiddos.. Mucho of Gracias
david payne
Awesome donuts and awesome staff. Cool place with creative food and good coffee. Love the maple bacon donut.
Josh Littrell
It's so strange, we must try it. But really... the donuts lack the flavor pow to make up for it's strangeness. Just average donuts with funky toppings.
Little Cloud (LittlexCloud)
Tasty/creative donuts, friendly staff
Caitlyn Williams
Strange donuts is a fun concept and I've gone out of my way to come here before, but, I always find the selection underwhelming and the taste a little dissappointing.
Brandon Wolf
I really love the idea of this place, and I need to give it another shot, but when we went, the donuts weren't that good. They were certainly strange, but not great.
Nathan Wright
Fun selection of donuts at a good price! Flavors change often so be ready to try something fun!
Eliot Jade
On the weekend nights they have a vegan donut which is legit. I tried a glaze today and it was really horrible but their strange donut varieties are on point.
Brandon Miller
Seems like the names are more creative than the actual doughnuts are. Plopping a marshmallow on top of icing and cake is not that great unfortunately.
Kelly
Delicious traditional doughnuts, and the stranger ones show a commitment to culinary innovation and connection with other St. Louis restaurants.
Joshua Stoll
Certainly unique donuts. I had a jalapeño strawberry flavored donut and a mojito flavored donut. A nice diversion.
Kyle Roth
Nice little donut shop! Good prices for the quality of the donuts
Buru Nekuisho
Please don't ever shut down. You bring the only thing creative in St. Louis. I love you for that, and your doughnuts are AMAZING AND CREATIVE!!! <3
Bryon Wheaton
Donuts are available in all kinds of crazy, tasty flavors, but they were not very fresh.
Monlau Kwok

Lots of good donuts in the Lou but this is my favorite spot for them, whether in getting a crazy one or not
Michelle Vinson
My family was disappointed. Donuts did not "melt in your mouth". We ended up throwing most away.
Theo
Top 1 place to get donuts..the staff is chill too! (They don’t serve beer, this was from their grand opening) They do serve coffee. Kaldis.
Donna Etzkorn

I don't understand why everyone loves these donuts so much. There are much better donuts in the metro area.
Ryan Smithee
Always a revolving door of neat choices, though I'm always a bit sad when I drive all the way out there and they are out of the maple bacon, which is my favorite.
Brandon and Amy McKenzie
The donuts were good, but it was just OK. I dont feel it was something to be super excited about.
