"No question about it, when you walk into World's Fair Doughnuts, you're stepping into a time warp. From the creaky screen door to the bulky equipment churning batter in the back to co-owner Peggy Clanton's one-of-a-kind hairdo, you'll feel like you've traveled back to St. Louis circa 1966. Don't get lost in the reverie, though, or you might be on the receiving end of Clanton's sharp tongue, honed to get customers in and out quickly."
"Located in Tower Grove, STL, this tiny shop has only about 5 parking spots that are always full on Sunday morning. Here, they’re known for their perfectly fried blueberry cake donut. The couple who owns World’s Fair Donuts has been serving STL with amazing donuts for over 30 years at this perfect little dive (check out the history of the donut history of the donut here)."
"Speaking of St. Louis sweets, another top destination is World's Fair Donuts near the Missouri Botanical Garden. This family-owned shop has been serving up melt-in-your-mouth pastries for decades. The shop has been featured on the Food Network."
"When Strange Donuts opened in Maplewood in October 2013, it was already considered one of the year's most anticipated new restaurants. Now, the donut shop is home to two St. Louis locations and one in Columbia, in addition to a brief pop-up at Brennan's in the Central West End under the Strange Trap Kitchen name. Co-founder Corey Smale parted with the business in April, but Strange Donuts is still serving up its creative "dones," which fall into three categories."
"Strange’s shop is growing better and better as it moves to locations outside of St. Louis, offering customers a very wide variety of donut flavors ranging from a basic glaze to s’mores to collaborations with neighboring restaurants like Seoul Taco Korean BBQ. As they would say, “Be nice, stay strange,” and eat a donut."
"If you're looking for gourmet toppings or wacky flavors, Donut Drive-In is not the place for you. Don't let that stop you, though – this no-frills donut shop right on Route 66 is beloved for its classics done right. Donut Drive-In has been using the same family recipes for its chocolate Long Johns and cinnamon rolls since the 1950s, and it's almost impossible to beat a straight-from-the-oven apple fritter."
"This shop is right down the street from the famous Ted Drewes. Get here early for the best selection of donuts, and don’t forget to take home one (or a dozen) of the perfect glazed donuts. And, check out the artisanal donuts they sometimes have in shop."
"They never disappoint the line can be long but it's always worth it and all the workers have always been super friendly!"
"Pharoah's Donuts owner Amon Aziz has been making donuts in St. Louis for two decades, but he's only had Pharoah's Donuts downtown since 2014. Keep an eye out, because the sign is hard to find, but once you step into this little donut shop, you'll be a return customer. Pharoah’s Donuts, 202 N."
"This is a hidden gem located in downtown STL because you could walk right past it and not even notice it was there (except for the deep fried aroma making you think to yourself that you NEED a donut). The donuts are priced cheaper than just about anywhere, and they taste just as good."
"We got there around 10:30 knowing our options would be slim. We tried a chocolate cake donut with vanilla glaze, and it was delicious. Even though it had..."
"This one-stop shop is perfect for an all-nighter in the library or a pre-hangover remedy because they’re open from ’round the clock 11 pm till 1 pm. If you’re craving a perfectly dense donut for a late night snack, this drive-in is calling your name."
"Sometimes not the best attitudes or even a good attitude thats why i only gave it 3 stars but the donuts make up for it and k..."
"The donuts were tasty but I felt uncomfortable eating since there was filth everywhere...tables, floors, glass. I was too scared to even check the restroom."
"Whether you are in the mood for a classic glazed, a vanilla frosted, a long john or a cinnamon twist, Eddie's is sure to have the sweet breakfast you are looking for. Don't feel like leaving the house?. You can also order these donuts via Postmates for delivery."
"If you want to snag a seat at Retreat Gastropub for brunch, you better stop in early. Since opening in October 2015, the modern-yet-rustic pub has won fans for its weekend brunch, featuring dishes like a poutine slinger with mushroom gravy, salmon cake Benedict, Farmhouse Burger topped with a fried egg, biscuits and gravy and whole-egg fritatta. In addition to the perennial Bloody Mary, Retreat offers some seriously creative cocktails, including a Cold Fashioned with Sump Coffee's cold brew, sugar and bitters, as well as several housemade shrubs in flavors like pineapple-sage, orange-vanilla and cherry-balsamic."
"The menu is described as “scratch-made American pub food with a modern twist,” one being that half the items are vegetarian (the veggie ragout with trout is flat-out delicious) while the other half are g’pub staples like poutine. $$, 101 Best Restaurants 2016, American, Best Restaurants 2018, Central West End, Gastro Pub.
