Additional Information

We begin at a local shop synonymous for their quality donuts––Do-Rite Donuts. From there we’ll walk the Randolph corridor, learning about the history of Chicago’s West Loop, a historic neighborhood which has gone through a series of revitalizations since its days as the industrial backbone of the City of Big Shoulders. We’ll sample the wacky, matcha-infused creations of a hidden-gem––Matcha-Cita cafe, where you’ll definitely need to pause for a photo-op! We’ll enjoy the over-the-top donut stylings of a newcomer shop trying to break onto the scene, Voodoo Donuts, a Portland transplant featuring indulgent flavors and unexpected toppings. Finally, we’ll stroll through a magical, old-time brickwork alley laden with beautiful, floral street-art, before emerging at Sawada Coffee, owned by the world renown latte artist, Hiroshi Sawada. Throughout our journey, we’ll provide anecdotes and history of each of the locations, the surrounding neighborhood as well as Chicago history in general.

#blameJeff - Emily did a great job and was very enthusiastic and informative! This is a great tour for both locals and visitors alike since they offer a good selection of treats along with some fun tidbits about the locations and surrounding neighborhood. Walking is very light and locations are close by. Very organized! Items were ordered ahead of time so there was no waiting and they had a great variety of flavors and "types". 10/10 would recommend and go again! Had to much fun!

History + Donuts + West Loop - This tour was one of my favorites in Chicago. I had Emely and she was super energetic, informative and funny! If you want to learn some old time Chicago stories, eat delicious donuts and know more about West Loop. I definitely recommend🫶🏼

Discovering Hidden Gems in the West Loop - Emely was a great guide! I was in town for a work trip, and was looking for something to do on my day off. I've visited Chicago before, but was unfamiliar with this particular area. She took us to four distinctly different locations, and I loved that no two places had the same offerings. The tour itself was around two hours long, and was a nice walking pace with a reasonable two miles. I learned a lot of interesting facts about the city while getting to taste some delicious treats - a real win win! The tour started at the only location I'd heard of (I've been to a different location of theirs), and one other I knew about from other cities. Two were delightful locations that I never would have been able to find on my own. I highly recommend this tour to people from out of town, or even for locals who might want to find out a little more about the city they love.
