Varsity Donuts

★★★★☆ 4.1 (142) • $

"I was in Manhattan visiting my best friend and she was been wanting to try this place. There is a LOT of construction in this area which made driving to and parking kind of a pain, but I know it isn't their fault so I'm not taking any stars off for that. This place is really cute inside and they kept a lot of the original features of what was once Palace Drug Store (including the hand-laid tile floor which is around 90 years old!). I love when newer businesses are able to keep original features. Now, on to Varsity Donuts itself: We walked in and it was completely empty as it was about 10:30 on a Friday and campus was pretty empty. The girl are the counter greeted us and was very nice. We immediately went to their merch wall as you first walk in which has lots of cute doughnut-branded shirts, stickers, cups, and buttons. We then walked over to the doughnuts and many of them looked good - flavor wise. I got the chocolate bar, the red velvet doughnut, and milk. My bestie got the Maple bacon bar and the K-Stater with milk. I think everything all together was under $14. We sat inside which was great. The regular doughnuts are $1ish and the bars are $2ish and the bars are massive! Texture and flavor wise, I was very happy with the yeast and the cake doughnut. Not greasy, dense, or dry and all of the flavors paired well together without being overwhelming. Sometimes with cream cheese frosting, people can lean towards the "too bitter" realm which I know some people enjoy to offset the sweet factor, but I feel like with the Red Velvet doughnut - they did well going mildly sweet for both the doughnut and the frosting. My bestie loved hers are well. I did try a bit of the maple frosting and it was really nice and didn't have that kind of fake flavor that some give off. Overall, would definitely recommend and come back."

"My new favorite donut place!! Wow, the donut holes filled with Bavarian cream and dusted with powdered sugar and the glazed donut was light and tasty and somehow unique. Incredible. I have always thought a glazed donut is just a glazed donut but apparently I have been served wrong. Happy Nov 5 Donut Day!"

Paradise Donuts & Coffeehouse

"Paradise is a gem! They have gorgeous pinecones and apple fritters, along with a lovely assortment of donuts and savory breakfast sausages. They only serve a dark roast coffee (light roast please!) but I was very pleased with the selection of donuts, the quality of the ingredients, and the great interior. Plush booths, a few armchairs, free WiFi, and they're open past lunch. I'll definitely be back!"

"We drove across town to see what all the hype was about - we were not disappointed! It's a cute little shop in a strip mall just north of Central and Tyler. Well-staffed, clean (if not a little sparse), and welcoming. We went solely to get the donuts. I was a little confused, in that they don't have a donut case. All of their donuts are made to order - while that may seem unusual, the process goes pretty fast once they have your order. Which was really our only issue - you can order at the counter, or on the website. I'd recommend the website, as they have a large selection, and the menus in the store (to me) were a bit underwhelming. Additionally, pay attention to the website ordering process, as it default time in the future, and the store doesn't start making the order until that time. We sat there like idiots for 20 minutes before I discovered they were waiting to make them until a future time. Ugh. I'll chalk this up to (my) user error, I suppose. They have an app, I will try that next time.If the product was not too good, I may have let the ordering process sour me. However, these things are astonishing! Small, hot, fried donuts covered in a myriad of toppings. My favorite was the Reeses peanut butter, which was a donut covered in chocolate and peanut butter sauce. These were so good, like, eat so many you get sick good. All the flavors we tried were amazing. So good luck to this place, they seem like very nice people and are working hard to serve a good product. I'm glad they are on the opposite side of town from me, otherwise I'd be there every other day!"

"Was picking up some breakfast/treats for my family. The donut rack was full as I squeezed in before they technically opened... there was a lot of variety to choose from! The decorated donuts were awesome. I can't wait to get into the sausage rolls!!!! The staff working there is very nice and the clean interior had me confident I made a great choice of donut shops. There are many in the area. However this one has the best customer service. They are friendly and the donuts are fresh. I was super pleased and will return when it's donut time again.. thank you for being awesome!Respectfully,Bryan Yukon, Oklahoma"

Prairie Donuts

★★★★☆ 3.6 (14) • $

"Many donut places are simply matters of proximity - you just go to whichever one is closest to you, and chances are it'll turn out pretty good. It's hard to screw up a donut.Prairie Donuts takes the place of a former Squeek's; I knew because the coffee maker was still labeled as such. I think the donuts might be a little more expensive than the average, but they're broken into two prices tiers - regular and fancy. The former is a small collection of various frosted yeast donuts, and the ones on which I nibbled (mostly just a few donut holes that were thrown in to the box when I built my dozen) were good enough. The fancy varieties are considerably larger items like apple fritters and pine cones - large donuts shaped, unsurprisingly, like a pine cone. I don't know if this is a prevalent item in Wichita's donut shops, but it's the first time I saw one, and others who noticed someone eating one were quick to show their surprise, too.The donuts are kind of just piled into a box, not doing much for the presentation, but the lady manning the empty store's register was quite nice, and it's clear that she probably wasn't in any danger of running out of business any time soon."

"Pick your wich, it doesn't matter which one you choose! It was a pleasant surprise we found when pulling into the gas station for a pit stop on the road trip. We've never heard of this place let alone expected the way they do things! It was fun to create your order on the bag and customize it to your liking! Staff is young and fun, music is chill and good, food is fresh and delicious! The place was clean and prices are reasonable. If I ever find another one of these places I will certainly stop!"

"I just moved from California to Kansas and needed to try the infamous Dunkin'! However, I was a bit underwhelmed. I ordered the cold brew coffee with sweet cream foam and it tasted very watery, almost no coffee flavor at all! I'm not sure what happened there. The donuts were good, especially the butternut one WOW. However, the maple and chocolate frosted ones were just ok. Nothing to rave about. I will definitely give it another try, especially to re-try the coffee. As for now, this Dunkin' is average and McDonald's coffee is better than what they served me here."

"Went through the drive through and wasn't sure what we wanted. The person taking our order was extremely patient with us and answered all the questions we had and explained what certain drinks consisted of and compared them to other drinks we may be more familiar with. She even read back our order to make sure she didn't miss anything. So our experience in the drive through was pleasant. However after getting our drinks and food and pulling off sadly we saw that consistency isn't the same. We ordered two avocado toast with bacon and one without the everything bagel seasoning. The amount of bacon (which we paid extra for) was not the same. The drinks were delicious and we were happy that the lady recommend them. Overall a good experience. This is not a store issue but we would appreciate if you could add your loyalty points with your receipt should you forget to scan at the store."

"The food and drinks I ordered came out good. The lady working the register didn't have super huge smile on her face but maybe she was having a bad day possibly. This location is pretty new and offers a lot of charging locations which is nice for students or people traveling."
