Honey Fluff Donuts

My husband and I recently moved to the area and were excited to try this donut shop! When we arrived at 11:10 am, a sign was placed on the door that someone would be back in 15 minutes. After waiting 35 minutes, no one ever returned. Several other cars came and left. Finally, we left. And after wasting this time on our Sunday morning… we won’t be back.

I got tired of donut chains and wanted something close to comfort food and I was not disappointed! Their donuts are delicious and each one tastes like it was just freshly made! Three thumbs up, you have to try them!

The donuts were really good and they tasted pretty good. The sour cream donut was decent and I felt it was just like the old fashioned glazed donut and a bit darker than the usual ones. The choc and apple fritters were amazing. They also have really good specials. I would go here regularly if I’m near by

The specialties section of the description for this place said «if you want super fresh doughnuts come to our shop around 8 pm…» So my husband and I did just that. 20 minutes later… NO, warm fresh doughnuts were anywhere to be found. Super sad face. What a disappointment! And to top if off, the service needs alot of help. Wont be frequenting this place ever again.

1^st time trying and I didn’t see until after I ordered that the Sour Cream donuts were a must try. IF I go back, I will try them. I was hoping for some really tasty treats but I was mildly disappointed. I had the coconut and strawberry variety and neither was spectacular. It seems like a nice place for the area people to get together with their friends and met for coffee (they do have seating available). The man at the counter was very nice and there was a steady stream of customers while I was there.

My go-​to place for donuts! The sour cream (best ever) and devils food are my favorites. Will always be a loyal customer as long as I’m in the area.

I can only chalk up these glowing reviews to the pedestrian tastes of the average suburbanite. I can’t for the life of me imagine all the 4 and 5 stars. I walk in to a little girl watching tv. She then comes behind the counter. They have about 6 types of donuts left, that look like they have seen better days. There are racks and racks of the same types laying uncovered on the counters. I don’t even want to imagine how those will taste Sunday morning. I look in the box and decide on a danish. The little girl did not know what a danish was, so I show her. She calls to someone in the back who comes out and tells her the price of 1.50. It was not fresh or very flavorful. It was ok. Maybe those dry looking donuts tasted awesome, but based on the danish I ate, I will disagree.

My sister is a bakery fan, so whenever she comes in from out of state for a visit, we try a new bakery or two. This time around, Honey Fluff was on our list.
The bakery makes each of their donuts on sight, fresh every single day. We came for the apple fritters (after reading the good reviews here), but also ordered a few sour cream donuts.
Honestly, we were a but dissapointed in the fritters. They were dry, lacking in glaze or flavor, and tasted old and stale. If I were to go back, I would definitely skip the apple fritter.
We were pleasantly surprised though, by the sour cream donuts. Blown-​away really. They were so, so good! Some of the best I’ve ever had.
I think there are better bakeries in the area (namely Busy Bee in Downers Grove, or Walt’s Food Stores in the Southern burbs), so I don’t know that we’d be back anytime soon. But it was certainly a worthwhile visit.

The name is so exciting, I had to try these donuts when I was out in the area. Unfortunately, that’s about where the excitment ended. The donuts are not all that good. The chocolate cake donuts have little-​to-​no chocolate flavor (much less the chocolate glaze). And they’re a bit dry. The glaze donuts are underwhelming and generic. I’ve been here a few times hoping that it was just that I came later in the day the first few visits, but a morning visit wasn’t the answer. The best part about this place is the price — $ 10/​dozen. So if you don’t care too much about quality and are tired of paying $ 2 – 4 per donut in some of the trendier places in the City, this place might be for you.

How have I not reviewed Honey Fluff? For really real? I’ve only been here 8,521,452 times. Maybe more.
Here’s the deal: solid, delicious doughnuts at a reasonable price. It seems like they always have specials going on; no matter what time of day we come in, they are almost always well stocked with fresh doughnuts. Fresh doughnuts with a solid variety of choices (especially when you have a whole gaggle of kids) + good specials = happy parents. :)
The cake doughnuts are exceptional – strangely fluffy but with a solid mouth feel. I have nothing against DD, but I’d much prefer (when service & goods received warrants it, as is the case with Honey Fluff), to bypass a chain establishment for an independent. Parking is sometimes a bit of a headache but never flat-​out terrible or anything. If you’re in the area, it’s certainly worth a stop. Yeah donuts! :)

Love places like these that are family run! Raspberry filled one is like my favorite one. Keep making these donuts !!! Mmmmm

Came in here with the kids after their haircuts next door. I only had $ 1 cash on me and that typically gets one donut. It was late at night and the lady gave each of my kids a donut for the $ 1. Not only was she nice enough to do that but they were delicious. We sat at the counter and scarfed them down. Great place and great employees.

Not bad!
We got a bunch of doughnuts on our way to the auto show.
I personally had a chocolate glazed and a raspberry filled. They were both decent but nothing exceptional.
My mom said she liked Dunkin Doughnuts’ maple glaze better than Honey Fluff’s.
Our doughnuts tasted like they had been sitting for a while. Coffee was also meh…
I’ll have to come back and try them when they are completely fresh.

Hell. Yes. I discovered this place on the way to Tropical Snow one summer a few years ago. Pretty amazing little place, definitely worth visiting. If you can find a way to get a dozen shipped over to Austin, Texas get in touch.

Dozen donuts for an even $ 10. Mom and pop kind of a place which made it worth it. The one of twelve donuts that I picked was the chocolate french. Yum!

I love this place. Donuts are always fresh. I bring them for parties at work and everyone loves them!

Absolutely delicious! I’ve been driving by this place wondering about them for a while now, and I’m happy to say I don’t need to wonder anymore!
Fluff is a great word to describe their donuts. That first bite was so tender and sweet — really delightfully fluffy.
I took the cashiers recommendation and also got a cake donut — it was very good, but not the best I’ve ever had. A little sweeter and not as dense as some other cake donuts. Still worth a taste though.
You’ll pay $ 5.44(pre tax) for a half dozen, and they’re well worth the price. Enjoy!

I can see where some may give less than 5 stars on occasion now. Doughnuts are very hit or miss, because they do go bad. I think it’s too much to expect a fresh doughnut at 7am, 12pm, 5pm, 9pm, and midnight at the same location.
I came back again and was really disappointed. I ordered 4 donuts which were all «off.» To top it off, I asked for a peanut donut which is my favorite since no one makes them anymore (darn allergies), and she gave me some peanut crumb topped donut! I’m not really mad, just be sure to keep an eye on her. Maybe she was saving the few peanut donuts for a friend. :)

Decided to try this place out today after reading glowing reviews. The reviews are so off on this one.
The quality and taste of donuts is NOT different from any other place. I think the donuts are actually worse than any average store. At a minimum, I expected this place to be better than Dunkin Donuts which it was not.
I consider myself a ‘connoisseur’ of apple fritters and buttermilk donuts. Imagine my joy reading this place’s specialties were those two donuts! I can say the much raved about fritters were horrible. The buttermilk was equally bad. I’ve had much much better at other places.
Unilocalers have been pretty reliable with reviews. Totally dropped the ball on this one.

There have been whispers of the magic that is the Honey Fluff Donut, dancing on the winds that blow through the southwest suburbs. Many a tale has been told about the elusive sweet treats.
And y’know what? Like most tall tales, they’re fulla hooey.
It took me 7 years of living in the area to finally give this place a try, and I wasn’t anymore impressed than with the donuts at Dunkin. Sorry, but as far as I’m concerned, Honey Fluff is all fluff and no substance.
First of all, they were out of plain and regular glazed donuts, so I had to just get a few donut holes to satisfy my donut craving. But next time I’ll just stop at Jewel and pick up a box of Krispy Kreme. My wife got a fritter, which I thought was way too cinnamonny.
KK’s departure from the Chicago area was a crime, and they are missed by many, but sadly, Honey Fluff is not doing much to fill the void. I thought their product was stale and bland. Sorry guys.
I think Jacob J. perfectly sums up my experience. And if you’re not there early, or getting what’s fresh (despite what their sign says) you’re getting stale and old leftovers.
