Federal Donuts North

Crema's Take

This bustling North Philly spot is a donut destination first and foremost, with reviewers raving about their decadent cake donuts—especially the classic glazed—though the coffee runs dangerously hot and the vibe skews loud and club-like rather than cozy. Beyond the pastries, they offer made-to-order fried chicken and sides, though execution can be inconsistent, and it's genuinely family-friendly despite the energetic atmosphere that might catch you off guard.

Donuts were pretty good. I would come back and try a few more. I will say the classic glazed is the best, while the others look very pretty the taste is mid. The coffee is very hot but it's not that great, but they do try to deliver a great experience. Customer service is a little off, Ive never been in, I'm from out of state and Ive seen this place on IG and this was the chance for the lady who was at the front to recommend whatever because I was so open to buying almost anything and she just didn't say anything. I'm like ok, just give me these and so I hyped myself up because I did want to try some stuff but it's like Im coming to support you, let me know what's great, I'm excited to try this out! I’ll try another location and and maybe go in earlier because the donuts were pretty good but some of the seasonal were just off tasting!

Donuts are absolutely amazing and I always crave them but it sounds like a night club. I asked the employee to I lower the volume as I could not hear her and she just write out ignored me They made the donuts with sugar despite me asking for plain and wasted my time … very sad, they need to train the employees at the very least on how to make sure they are taking the order properly. When I notified the other female employee that I wanted plain, she said you usually have to notify us if you want it plain. That is your job to ensure every customer understands what your usual is! Not even a single apology Now I am standing here waiting when I should not have to. Love the donuts though. The employer needs to check the employees attitudes

I went in expecting much more than we got taste wise. The good thing was the chicken was cooked fresh to order the fries had to much rosemary seasoning on them it was very powerful. They were of the glazed donuts. I was very underwhelmed with the cookies and cream and the cinnamon donut I tried. Not a place I will run back to while stopping in Philly.

If you're a donut lover this spot is for you! I am personally a yeast donut fan so I was disappointed they did not offer any except cake donuts but they offer a wider variety of decadent donuts like banana pancakes and baklava! We opted for the banana pancake and I didn't think the flavor was fully there. We did try a bit of our friends baklava and that is a highly recommend flavor! We also got the zataar fries and it was good. Nice and crunchy with good seasoning! My FAVORITE item was the early bird breakfast sandwich!!!! Nice and big piece of fried chicken along side my favorite breakfast items and not to mention that steamed egg Service wise, it was quick and the staff were efficient. Very convenient spot to grab and go or sit for a quick bite.
