5 hand-picked restaurants, critic-reviewed and ranked

Last Updated: January 2026

Our Top Pick
Panadería Nuevo Leon
Massive pan dulce variety with proven, repeatable freshness at scale.

Notable Picks

$ Pilsen
A high-volume Pilsen panadería where the case runs deep with fresh pan dulce, and the move is building a mixed tray of conchas, empanadas, and cookies that still taste right hours later. It’s a grab-a-tray, grab-the-tongs kind of place—fast, efficient, and built for repeat visits and weekend rituals.
Must-Try Dishes: Conchas (including vegan options), Rosca de Reyes (seasonal), Marranitos (molasses pig cookies)
What makes it special: Massive pan dulce variety with proven, repeatable freshness at scale.
$ McKinley Park
An old-school diner that treats donuts like a real draw, not an afterthought—big, glossy glazed options and classic cake styles that hit best when they’re fresh. Come for a full breakfast if you want, but the simplest win is coffee plus a donut (or two) to-go.
Must-Try Dishes: Alaska cake donut, Chocolate glazed donut, Cinnamon roll donut
What makes it special: A diner where the donuts are a core reason to stop.
$$ Bridgeport
A neighborhood bakery where the sweet case leans celebratory—cakes and pastries—but the donut lane shows up through paczki and classic ring-style picks. It’s strongest when you treat it like a grab-and-go box: two donuts/paczki flavors, then stop before the order sprawls.
Must-Try Dishes: Paczki (seasonal), Sugar donut, Chocolate donut
What makes it special: A Bridgeport bakery stop where paczki and donuts anchor the sweet run.

Worthy Picks

$ Pilsen
A long-running neighborhood bakery that still earns stops for classic cake donuts and seasonal paczki—more old-school case than trend bakery. It’s best when you go early, pick one donut style plus one filled treat, and let simplicity do the work.
Must-Try Dishes: Old-fashioned cake donut, Paczki, Cheese Danish
What makes it special: A classic bakery stop for cake donuts and paczki runs.
7.7
$$$ Bucktown
A small, community-minded café where donuts show up as a smart add-on to strong coffee and Guatemalan-leaning pastries. Treat it like a tight order—one drink, one donut, one pastry—so the visit stays quick and satisfying.
Must-Try Dishes: Chocolate glazed doughnut, Cinnamon sugar doughnut, Guava concha
What makes it special: Coffee-and-donut stop with a local, small-room feel.
