A donut is a bit of a splurge all on its own, but if you’re going to cannonball any and all attempts at a healthy day with the first meal of the day, you really should go all out, no? Go big or go home really could be the motto of Mike’s Donuts and Chicken in Kenosha. This unique spot serves up delicious, over-the-top donuts, crispy fried chicken and some of the most interesting alcoholic drinks you’ve ever imagined. It’s an eclectic mix, but somehow it works. You’ll see their iconic pink boxes been carried all over town most mornings. If you’re in southeast Wisconsin, it’s well worth a side trip to Kenosha to try one of these outrageous fried bits of deliciousness.
Please note, Mike’s Donuts and Chicken is no longer in business.
These folks have a fabulous location that invites you to sit and stay for awhile for a stellar breakfast or lunch. They're open late, so as they like to say, you can come back for second breakfast or a late night treat, as well. There's just the donut bar where you can get the treats to go, but you can also sit down to enjoy a full menu and one of the most ridiculous bars in town, as well.
Let's just get this out of the way. You've heard of chicken and waffles. Now you can get chicken and donuts in one dish. It's crispy, fresh fried chicken drumsticks with melty frosting. Sounds weird, tastes amazing.
These "cyclops" donut rings have their center filled with the most outrageous array of sweet, delicious things, from cookies to frosting, nuts to caramel.
Think these folks keep their mad-scientist skills and ideas to the donut ring? Think again! When you're sitting down with a group of friends, try the Maple Bacon Donut Pizza! I'm not sure why no one seems to have though of the idea of a whole donut pizza before, but bless these folks for opening my mind to a whole new realm of possibility.
Eating here is basically like getting to have a meal inside Willy Wonka's factory. The colors and flavors and mixtures are so bright and unique and they'll blow your mind.
If you've got kids, you're going to want to take them to Mike's for a chance to experience some of the craziest donuts you've ever imagined. Your kids will feel like they've gone to heaven and are having the meal of their lives.
Mike's Donuts and Chicken is unlike anywhere else in Wisconsin. Stop in for breakfast and then take a box of treats home to keep the experience going for a whole 'nother day.
