Firecakes Donuts

By chance found this tiny donut shop tonight on W. Hubbard. Best donuts I've had since Predigger's bakery (RIP), in New York in the 1980s. Save room for this on your next trip to the Windy City .

Delicious donuts , freshly baked. While the crazier ones may tempt you, they can be a bit dry. Stick with a standard (old fashioned , apple fritter ) and you'll be much happier.

As those before me have said, most certainly incredible! Vanilla icing classic for the adventurous and the buttermilk glazed old fashion for the purist. A 12 on the scale to 10 for donuts .

I have to admit this little Shop is unbelievable and they serve the best old fashion ???? in the area and the serve a fresh orange juice they sequeze it in front of you. Also, the ???? is ❤

While the chocolate and espresso cream was absolutely delicious, I was convinced the butterscotch praline was CRACK. Hands down the best donut shop in Chicago.

The Vanilla Iced is a large, fluffy glazed doughnut topped with a rich vanilla bean glaze, almost pink in color. Crunchy sweet vanilla pearls were sprinkled on top, reminding me of a wedding cake . Read more

I had an amazing doughnut with chocolate frosting that was filled with an espresso cream . Everything looked delicious and they even had a gluten free option . ????

The honey-glazed: classic, but possibly the best regular glazed donut I've ever had. Crisp on the outside and light and fluffy on the inside.

Firecakes' donut ice cream sandwich is held together with chocolate espresso or vanilla bean gelato , and adorned with rich chocolate , caramel sauces , and cocoa nibs. Hell to the yes. Read more

Donuts and decadence already go together, but when you get donuts from Firecakes, you reach the epitome of deliciously delightful donut consumption. Having a birthday? The birthday firecake is a must!

It has a yummiest ice cream donut sandwich ???????????? 'Glazed Donut , Vanilla ice cream ,and Nutella Spread ???? ????'

Amazing donuts ! I ordered the donut ice cream sandwich and I wish I would have just ordered the donuts because they were so good. The coffee here is also good. Be prepared to WAIT though.

Small shop with amazing donuts . The Vanilla glazed is huge and tasty. Great place if you are looking for an authentic American donut

They have a wide variety of donuts & other treats! Get here early to snag some of their apple fritters as they tend to run out quickly!

Salted caramel is my personal favorite. And clearly I’ve tried most of them… ????

Still my favorite donut place in Chicago. The expresso donut was unique ???????? really enjoyed the small size donuts ???? ????????

Love the donut ice cream sandwich . It's surprising light and tasty without being overwhelmingly rich. Still probably not low calorie , but much less decadent than expected while still delicious.

Some of the finest donuts I have ever tried. They have this crunchy exterior unlike any other donut I ever had, but they are super soft inside. Favorite donut : old-fashioned

Jelly Donut is everything a jelly donut should be. Raspberry blood orange filling is tart to balance this pillowy yeast donut . More please :)

The pistachio buttermilk old fashioned donut is good enough that you can have it three straight mornings and still want a fourth.

Went to firecakes for the first time and ended up spending 20 dollars on doughnuts alone! And it was definitely worth every penny! Make sure you order the ice cream sandwich !

The butterscotch praline & chocolate covered one w/ espresso cream were awesome. Haven't tried the ice cream donut yet since they're selling out by 1pm. Ice cream for breakfast ?

The glaze donut ice cream sandwich with chocolate drizzle

Very cute tiny corner shop. They had about 8-10 different varieties of doughnut . I got the pumpkin one with pecans - was delicious except for the weird pumpkin filling on top - it was tasteless. 4.1/5

Excellent donuts - definitely worth a stop. They have a small area to sit outside.

You don't need to try ice sandwich which is just having additional ice cream in it. Try other regular donut which so delicious!

The chocolate donut option at Firecakes is amazing. There's always something sitting behind the glass waiting to catch your eye.

A good alternative to Do-Rite that close whenever they run out. Open till late afternoon. Délicieux!

Stop reading this and go get a donut . The Vanilla Iced was pure, simple perfection while the Butterscotch Praline was full of surprising flavor.

Traditionalists feast on gently sweet apple fritters , tangy buttermilk , classic jelly , and chocolate iced, while donut enthusiasts opt for the fancier stuff.

Great doughnuts , but - Seriously excellent buttermilk old fashioned . Also try the doughnut ice cream sandwich . You won't be sorry :)

This place is insane!! I tried the triple valrhona chocolate , coconut cream, and Nutella long John. I'd recommend them in that exact order. Oh, the mini bacon pineapple is not good - more gimmicky.

On a date? Hanging out? Need some food before work? Fire cakes is perfect for any occasion. The bigger the donut the better right? If that's what you believe fire cakes is the place to go

Amazing donuts . Played it safe with a buttermilk old fashioned , switched it up with a key lime donut . Both were great!

Donuts are delicious, and even better when accompanied by a cup of their La Colombe coffees . They know to make an espresso !

The sprinkles and old fashioned are unbelievable. The icing is so well done on these donuts .

The pistachio old fashioned is boptastic! ????

Long John and Peach Fritter were AMAZING! So was the coffee ! Enjoyed it on the little patio ! Great morning!

Ice cream sandwich is good, but I love their old fashion donuts . My favorite donuts place in Chicago so far.

The chocolate hazelnut long john is like shoving a jar of Nutella into your mouth and the peanut butter cup is the Reese’s of our dreams. Read more

My boyfriend and I got the ice cream sandwich donut...a little pricey ....but soooo good!

The honey-glazed and old-fashioned are very popular - the Varlhona chocolate iced is the triple threat of the doughnut world (Eater)

I like the tiny donuts . Help to control calories intake while satisfying your donuts desire.

Delicious donuts . Loved the chocolate glazed.

Amazing old fashioned donuts .

The Valrhona Chocolate & Espresso Cream doughnut is my favorite doughnut in Chicago.

Offered an exceptional donut experience with its fresh, artisanal creations and welcoming atmosphere. The donuts were made with high-quality ingredients.

Wide selection of donuts . My favorite was the old fashioned . Latte was great too!

The doughnut ice cream sandwich at Firecakes is one of the 100 best things we ate this year. http://tmout.us/rLOtk Read more
