Federal Donuts West

This location is sparkling clean and tidy with perfect rows of tasty donuts. We chose four: the black & white, banana toffee, chocolate old fashioned, and peanut butter. All were excellent except the banana toffee which has an artificial banana flavor that we didn’t care for. It wasn’t terrible, it just was not as delicious as the others. Federal donuts also serves up various coffee drinks, fried chicken, & fries. Donuts are definitely not health food but these are worth the splurge.

Oh ya! I love the Fed Donut shops! The S’more, strawberry lavender flower and mocha donuts are the bomb! And let’s not even talk about the chicken sandwiches that are absolutely unbelievable! Love that Fed Donuts continues to expand their empire

So I have loved this place for years. Move away and come visit to make sure and yea it’s still good but $11 for 6 party wing pieces?! I went back to the site because I KNOW the last time I was here I at least got whole wings. I remember when they were selling whole pieces (much better to do the wings) still a huge fan of the flavors and great staff customer service overall but Please update your site and let customers know what they’re paying for.

Very clean and personal atmosphere. Went during the slow part of the morning. Friendly cashier, very charming personality. Made me feel appreciated for my first visit. Only serving breakfast and donuts at the time. Kinda pricy but quality is greater than cost here. Fresh hot donuts that will make you run back and tell somebody. The word of mouth must bring in the most customers. Front of building is like a house on the block so look for the sign or you may miss it. I walked there and it was easy in and out. Not much space for parking. I recommend that you try this place.

Excellent donuts, tasty chicken sandwiches (could have a bigger bun), well-seasoned Za'Atar fries 😋 and always friendly service I love trying their different donut combos, and the shops are all very consistent (quality-wise). Love the colorful ones especially, like blue cake donuts and the bright red icings, etc.

Donuts are really good! I only saw cake style donuts so hopefully that is your thing. Did not have the chicken, but they were serving it at 10:30am. Coffee was okay. Food was good quality for the price. Overall a nice breakfast.

First time here, I'd never heard of the place before. Got to taste five donuts, two of them were really good. They start serving chicken flavored in fancy/interesting rubs at 11, which seems like it would be worth trying. The server was really friendly. I was most excited about the cookbook with all the recipes for these cool flavored donuts and chicken rubs

Federal Donuts is a relatively famous place in west Philly- a block away from UPenn's campus. As its name would infer, it's a pretty popular spot for donuts. And unless you're a Philly native, it also surprisingly serves as a spot for Korean fried chicken. (After 11, which I sadly discovered the first time I stopped by) After a recommendation from a friend, I set out to try out this allegedly good chicken. For 10 dollars, I received 5 wings and one honey doughnut. At first, I balked at the price. 10 dollars for 5 wings? I soon discovered that this price was more justified than I had initially believed- each wing was actually more of a "chicken leg"- (if you take a look at the photos included in the review, you'll see what I mean.) In addition, I also unexpectedly received a honey doughnut with my wings, which helped justify the 10 dollar price tag. Overall, I enjoyed the food I ordered. The wings came very hot (so much I had to wait a minute before digging in) but in my opinion this is definitely a positive. They were sticky, but that's to be expected considering I order soy wings. In addition, the honey doughnut was very good! (Though that's to be expected from a doughnut place.) For such a well known (at least to Philly natives) doughnut joint, it was actually very quiet the Thursday I went. There were about four people in the establishment (including me) and was a good environment for me to dig in and enjoy my meal. I would definitely come again. While it's not the BEST Korean chicken wing location in Philly (because let's face it- it's facing stiff competition with other Korean restaurants... and all of Chinatown) it's proximity near UPenn makes this a good place to stop by if you're ever down to have some Korean chicken wings.
