Among Yelp's list of the top 100 donut shops in the U.S., some of Chicago's most popular spots didn't make the cut.
In previous years, Stan's Donuts and Coffee, Do-Rite Donuts and Chicken and Firecakes Donuts have been named on other cuisine lists as the best places for a sweet treat in Chicago.
But in Yelp's 2022 Top 100 Donut Shops, just four Illinois bakeries were ranked, though two are in Chicago.
Dip and Sip Donuts, located at 2256 W Roscoe in the Roscoe Village neighborhood, ranked No. 8 and offers both pre-made donuts and customized creations.
