Strange Donuts

"First time here. We like donuts and take the opportunity to try different options out there in town and when we travel. Without using google maps for the exact location, I knew this place was on Argonne St. We passed it twice because signage is only on the window and cars block the storefront and it is a tiny place. The interior has no place to eat inside and could use a bit of a make over as it is not attractive, which on first impression reflects the quality of ownership and products. We bought 8 different donuts and there were about 12 options. The yeast donuts are light and fluffy and had a good flavor. The cake donut is also on the lighter side which we really like. The custard and jelly fillings are good flavor and well filled, although could use a few more options for filled donuts- there were only 2. Nothing really "strange" about the donuts. Maybe just a catch name but overall they are good donuts."

"I used to really like this place, great collab donuts and stuff. Been eating these donuts for like 8 years. But the last two years I’ve been in town and had a $3 donut, they were undercooked in the center."

"I visited the location in Kirkwood, MO. I have been meaning to stop there for years and today was the day. I was in Kirkwood on Sunday. It was Father's Day and Strange Donuts was closed because they sold out of donuts by 10:30 am. No matter what the hours on the door state, if they run out, they close. I returned on Monday around 9 am. Success! They still had donuts. I chose the maple bacon donut. It was loaded with what looked like a brown sugar, maple icing and topped with real bacon chunks. It was great. I didn't need anything to eat for 4 hours after that donut so it was filling, too. I look forward to trying another flavor next time I'm in the area. Coffee is strong and fresh. Good quality. On weekends, they have something called a "stranger" donut. It's an out-of-this-world flavor they come up with on weekends. On Father's Day, it was a chocolate flavored donut stuffed with bits of cookie dough. Selections change often. What you get one day, you might not get the next time you go. Only a few of the donuts like the glaze are staples. The best-seller is the gooey butter donut. I hope to try that one next time. Although the maple bacon was so good, I might get it again if it's an option. Go early, go often! They also sell their own coffee and have a coffee club in which the proceeds or at least some of it goes to charity. (Check directly with Strange Donuts if you'd like to know more.) They also sell t-shirts, sweatshirts, and other items. It is carryout only. In addition, the staff person, Kendra, who waited on me was excellent and knowledgeable!"

"We chose this place as it was rated top in st.louis... they did not disappoint. The guy helping us was THE BEST. He took his time with me, explained all the doughnuts and was seriously the nicest person I've come across in my travels in awhile. The doughnuts were unbelievably delicious... I'm sad I didn't get more to take home!"

"This review is more about Strange Donuts as a whole than this location specifically. First of all, it’s an inferior knockoff of Portland’s Voodoo Doughnuts. The donuts themselves are not all that “strange,” despite the name. They’re dense, cakey donuts, which I am not a fan of. Not a big selection, either. This time, I tried the gooey butter donut and a coffee, which was about $5 total. The coffee was the highlight, actually."
