My only problem is that my chicken felt stale or not tender/fresh even though I visited during lunchtime. Im sure they cook large batches of chicken and after some time the chicken is not great. This is just not acceptable for a chicken place. The comeback sauce was pretty good and standard. Outside seating is exceptional. Prices arent super bad. Good place overall.

1st time here and the customer service was cool. The gentleman who waited on us was more than patient. Food seemed a bit pricey but tasty. Creme Brûlée dont was the bomb!!!! Chicken fingers were a bit dry, but cool.Lack of public restrooms was a bummer and should be offered..outdoor seating was appreciated.

Literally everything was amazing! The biscuit chicken sandwich was maybe the best fried chicken sandwich I’ve ever had.

Excellent fried chicken sandwich. The chicken breast is perfectly crisp and not greasy. The doughnut has more of a cake like texture and is very greasy.

Worth the trip! My husband and I decided to drive down from Baltimore to give this place a try based on the reviews by several friends of ours. This place didnt disappoint AT ALL. The Fried chicken and the Doughnuts were BOMB.

The donuts here are beautiful! Incredibly aesthetically pleasing. Unfortunately, they are basically inedible. They tasted like they had been fried in week old chicken grease. There have been plenty of donuts I didnt like, but this is the first time that I took one bite and could not take anymore because of how bad they were. Hopefully their chicken is better, but skip the donuts.

The food wasnt terrible but vastly overpriced for what you get. My $13 chicken sandwich had chicken that covered only half of the brioche bun, and you get much less chicken compared to Popeyes or Chic-Fil-A. The slaw on the sandwich was not fresh and tastes reminiscent of cigarette butts to be frank. Disappointed with my meal and definitely wont be returning in the future.

We loved Astro Doughnuts!The doughnuts at Astro were really great! We got the Blueberry Muffin doughnut and Peanut Butter and Jelly doughnut. They both had incredible filling inside with delicious, sugary coating on the outside. The doughnuts were slightly dry but mostly doughy and extremely flavorful. Theres not a whole lot of seating other than 2 tables outside the shop.Wed definitely recommend Astro Doughnuts next time youre in DC! It was great to grab some doughnuts and then start the sightseeing.

Doughnuts are amazing! Would love to give 5 stars, but the didnt have any chicken when we went 20 minutes after opening. I got all excited for a hot honey butter chicken breakfast sandwich, all chicken items were covered on the board. Got a bacon egg and cheese on a cheddar biscuit(which was awesome), but how are you going to be called Astros Chicken and Doughnuts and not ha e chicken?

Left the hotel to see the national mall early in the morning, didnt eat before arrived. Quick look on Google maps to my finding of Astros. Very happy we made the walk here. The chicken sandwich and donuts were amazing. Vanilla glazed, regular, donut was the best. Get the fried chicken honey sandwich. Food was so good it was gone before pictures were taken.

Was actually really looking forward to eating here but was pretty disappointed in the donut chicken sandwich. I asked which one to go with and they said that the savory donut went well with the fried chicken so I went that route. I paid ~$12 for a piece of chicken (smaller than what I usually get on my sandwich at Chick-Fil-A) on a donut. It was super bland. While a cool concept, I feel like for the price (even in DC) this could be improved.

Delicious combination of donut and fried chicken and a little honey butter. Great place and sweet staff. Highly recommend

It was OK. We went on a weekend where most stores were closed. Happy to try out some donuts. Interesting flavors but the donuts itself was not as good as i had hoped. It was not fluffy as i had hoped and was too sweet to eat unless you washed it down with a drink.

Delicious specialty doughnuts every day. Such a treat. The cherry blossom doughnut was fun during our visit after seeing all the blooms.

The best fried chicken sandwich in DC!!! Amazing donuts too!! 👏👏👏

Hot fresh flavorful fried chicken. Maple bacon donut was perfect. Pretty quick service. BUT, (opinion follows) could do without the “honey butter” and just serve on a honey glazed donut with the inside out. Ppe in effect.

The Asteroid sandwich was delicious!!!

Awesome atmosphere great food, drinks, and service! But the bartender named Tre brings it all together making it one of the best bars downtown! BY FAR!!

Really good fresh home made tasting chicken. We’re from Mississippi and it taste just like grandma used to make. Tater tots, are just tater tots. And the cheddar biscuit is ok. There was a fairly long wait but they made it fresh for us so it was worth it. There’s a bar inside as well and an adjoining donut shop

Really good chicken sandwiches! Didnt get a chance to try the donuts. Their tarot tots are lacking.

I highly recommend the sammies over getting pieces of fried chicken. And get them with the cheddar biscuits - YUM. The donuts have great unique standby flavors like pbj and creme brûlée. And seasonal options.

I love the fried chicken on the cheesy biscuit that they offer for breakfast. Its so fresh and delicious. You can get awesome donuts ave great coffee options here as well. If you prefer they also have lemonade and other great drinks too. Its easy to get to and worth the trip. If youre in the area make sure to check it out.

The chicken sandwich was good. Chicken was moist and the donut fluffy and airy. The maple bacon donut was just the right portion of sweet and salty. The staff were friendly and courteous making this a very pleasant visit for the first time. It is a small shop, so prepare to order and go.

Omg the creme brûlée donut was AMAZING! It was my very first time trying this place, but it certainly won’t be my last!

Had a treat delivery emergency this morning. Astro Doughnuts came through in a big way by delivering 75 individually wrapped donuts to teachers and staff as part of Teacher Appreciation Week. The school staff LOVED them.

Reviewers who found their fried chicken to not meet expectations mustve had different chicken than I had because...wow! Best fried chicken Ive had in a long time. Cheddar biscuits were flaky and delicious. Jalapeno slaw was also tasty. Oh, and they have doughnuts! Cant forget about those. They were equally fantastic. High-quality, not DD level. Creme Brulee doughnut was good, excellent custard inside, maybe overall a bit too sweet because of the caramelized sugar on top. I betcha they could make a really good Boston Cream donut with that custard. Birthday Cake doughnut was good too. The chocolate cake base of the doughnut was really good. Pricey for what it is? Yeah, but its DC and I dont mind paying more if the food going to be good.

Im not usually a sweets person, but will make an exception. So creative, and the chicken was pretty good too!

Went here while in DC 2 yrs ago and still use their biscuit as a standard for what to expect from a biscuit place. Highly recommend!

I placed an order online and the thing said order ready at 10:54 which was 45 min later so I went down to cancel and the ladies inside were like no way we can do it now! So they very kindly made the order. Very helpful. Donuts are amazing. So Delicious and very soft. Love it here.

This is an excellent place to grab some breakfast, lunch, or to get your donut fix. The takeout half of the restaurant is pretty small and can get cramped, but they also have a restaurant side with plenty of seating, TVs, and table service. As for the chicken, its pretty good; its flavorful and has a good amount of crispiness. You definitely cant go wrong with a sandwich here (on a savory donut bun). For the donuts, they always have four staple flavors and four rotating flavors. The cake donuts are exceptional! They have a very moist and rich texture. My biggest complaint is that only 1 out of their 8 flavors on any given day is a cake donut. The yeast donuts are pretty good as well, but they dont nail the texture quite as well. They can be just a tad doughy, but the filled donuts balance that out to the point that its not noticeable. For that reason, PB&J is by far their best staple donut! In summary, Astro Doughnuts is a unique and quite excellent shop, and Id recommend giving everything on the menu a try if you get the chance!

Never had a blueberry doughnut with real blueberries in it 🤩 sorry not much left in the pic. #expansivecoworking

Delicious donuts and fried chicken under the same roof! Yes, it’s true. The donuts were so good; I especially liked the PB&J donut. The fried chicken sandwich on a donut is something I still think about on occasion. No indoor seating is a bummer, but they have outdoor seating when the weather permits. I liked the place well enough, I bought a hat to wear back to Kansas.

Do yourself a favor - get the fried chicken sandwich on a biscuit. 😍

Very tasty chicken honey on cheddar biscuit. Worth the effort to go and enjoy. No seating or coffee, which is a bummer, but expected now.

We visited DC a few weeks ago and Astro donuts fried chicken sandwich was the best thing we ate the entire trip. The donuts are good but the real star of the show was the fried chicken sandwiches. My husband got the chicken sandwich with the donuts and a savory seasoning on top and I got the chicken sandwich with the cheddar biscuit, both of us agree is was one of the best things we’ve ever eaten!

Sandwich was fantastic. The almost $4 cold brew was a can (the name of the restaurant isnt cold brew coffee , donuts and fried chicken, so not a deal breaker. Ha!), but I will definitely make another stop next time Im there.

Dont skip it. Youll be at minimum satisfied, at maximum blown away

Absolutely live this place! Always get their fried chicken biscuit which is coated in a honey butter! Also the donuts were amazing. Cherry filled was my all time favorite!

Skip the savory and go for the sweet. Went right before the lunch switch at 11:30 and ended up with a greasy savory donut with two chicken strips with no sauce at all. The lemon cooler and filled creme brulee donuts were worth the money. Drinks are overpriced. Limited outdoor seating, because really they want to to grab and go. Seasonal flavors. At $36 a dozen, this is a sometimes treat.

The donuts here were pretty decent. I want to give them a 4.5 because they made me happy, but it wasn’t a knock it out of the park type of place. As far as prices go, it’s a typical artisanal donut price range ($2-$4). The one thing we were a bit sad about was the lack of indoor seating, so we had to move our donut purchases to a coffee shop nearby.

Glazed, Blueberry, and Maple Bacon donuts were AMAZING! No hot coffee and the cold brew is only sold in cans.

CLOSET SIZE STORE! Theres a small sitting right outside the place, but dont expect to sit because the place is usually crowed and rightfully so. The donuts are amazing and so are the donut sandwiches. Prices are a tad more than expected, but well worth it. Wish I couldve tried everything.

We had a great experience here! I requested to make my Chicken BLT Sandwich spicy and it didnt disappoint me, it was really good the chicken has the right spice to it and it was really tender and juicy, I picked Savory donut bun on my sandwich. On the other hand, my husbands Spicy Chicken Sandwich is a little bit disappointing because it was kinda greasy because of the sauce on it (I guess) but still taste really good (if you dont mind a little greasy chicken sandwich). Their doughnuts was fantastic! Really soft and moist and the flavor was on point, my favorite is from their monthly special flavor (Espresso Cookie).The staff here was really nice and polite, we sat at the bar and the bar tender (I guess lol) even let my husband taste some of the beer first before ordering a glass of beer. If youre planning on going here you should expect to find a parking on the street or find a parking lot building because they dont have their own parking lot. All in all I would recommend this place to all the people I know that will visit DC area.

The donuts and chicken are outstanding. Some of the best Ive had in any city.It doesnt quite get 5 stars though because the coffee is awful - tastes kind of like the stuff they give you on airplanes or the stuff they include with cheap hotel rooms. Donuts this good need at least a palatable cup of coffee to go with.

The chicken is great, but bring your own hot sauce cause theyre just using Tobasco.

Small space, but the doughnuts are unbelievable. I got the PB&J one, and I highly recommend that. My friend got the Key Lime Pie flavor. They were so good, we both went in and got another one for later!

Got the peach blueberry cobbler was great. The maple bacon lacked maple flavor but was not a bad doughnut. The blackberry lemonade was pretty good. Little over priced for a doughnut that didnt blow me away. But good for the area.

Quality doughnuts with excellent service. There is some seating outside and my only suggestion is to get a fountain for water (that would put the customer experience over the top). Hope this helps!

Always a great experience. Hot, fresh, extremely well seasoned chicken. Perfectly sweet and savory donuts. My only complaint is I wish they stayed open later

Try the Creme Brulee Donut, its crazy good!

Astro Donuts is the Georgetown Cupcakes of donuts. They have fried chicken as well. These donuts are amazing. The cremebrule donut is my personal favorite. Although these donuts are not cheap. There is a Dunkin down the street for the people who want to buy junk. To each there own!

Best fried chicken I had in years. Not to mention the donuts... Delicious!

Small fried chicken and doughnut shop in the downtown area. Look out for seasonal sweet and savory menu items, particularly around the holiday season as theyre pretty inventive and special. The fried chicken sandwich special is flavorful and works well sandwiched in between the doughnut bun. Unfortunate part is no indoor seating available, and birds are known to come close if you decide to sit outside.

Would of gave 4.5 if I could. I Got the maple bacon donut, very delicious. The perfect amount of glaze. Could of warmed it up just a little before serving though.

Loved it! Even bought 2 boxes of donuts for the flight back home. Place is small tho! Big groups wont be accommodated. Outside seating (just a side note)

This is a cool doughnut spot. The doughnuts are good and they have a lot of different options for breakfast foods besides just sweets. There is only outdoor seating here. This is a very small restaurant. So if its cold you might want to get your food to go.

The best chicken biscuits and doughnuts.

Went to grab a quick bite and had a great chicken sandwich. I got it with the old Bay donut bun and the spicy sriccha sauce. It was a bit messy and pricey (8.50) but well worth it.

Great food and service in person but when we ordered via delivery app, we received a different donut than what we ordered because original choice was sold out. Please call and ask for our next choice or offer a refund instead of choosing for us.

The store is small. No seating indoors, but really theres no reason to stay in. The menu is simple, but after the pandemic Im sure the line could be out the door.Really nice customer service - I was given recommendations when prompted, the staff knows what is on the menu and how they taste. I would try the donut bun at least once for the experience. Its light, fluffy, and just a tad sweet when you eat it with a chicken sandwich. I prefer the least highlighted item which is the chessy biscuits!!! Yummy is an understatement.I wouldnt spend the extra money on the sides. As you can see the jalapeno coleslaw for its size and price...not a great value. The taste was so so. The tots...again...not worth the extra 3 to 4 bucks.The donuts are seasonal, but the ones they have are amazing!! The cherry cheesecake was delicious.Yeah, they ask for a tip on the screen when you pay, but I really think its just the program they use. It gives you the option to tip what you want. So, dont feel obligated. However, theyre so nice...why not?!The price is steep, but if youre looking for a delectable and consistent DC delicacy, make the trip.

Absolutely heaven in your mouth.this place is awesome!!

You NEED to stop here! I ordered the maple bacon, pb&j, Nutella and cherry blossom (seasonal) doughnuts and I wish I had more. The pb&j and Nutella were my favorite, but none of them disappointed!

Absolutely delicious!! Came to Washington from Florida and wanted to try something local and this was perfect!! The chicken was moist and the breading was perfect! Not too thick or thin; absolutely amazing! This coming from a person that is not a big doughnut person! (my wife is though ;) Homemade sauces were delicious! Will definitely be visiting here again on our next trip! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

What a piece of food heaven I found in D.C. on our family trip. A chicken sandwich with a doughnut for the bun 🤔🤔.......sign me up. The fried chicken honey sandwich was so good that I had to get a 2nd one. The maple bacon doughnut had the right crispness to the bacon for it to be enjoyable.

Unique chicken sandwich. Each bite was a little different, really satisfying! We also tried the pear gingerbread donut, which was unlike any donut I’ve ever had. Yum!

Three decadent donuts here. Creme B, Peanut butter j, Chocolate holiday.

I happened to be downtown and decided to stop in for a bite. I had the fried chicken breakfast sandwich on a biscuit with hot sauce. It was lit!! Great customer service from the two ladies upfront.

Excellent creme brulee doughnut!

Chicken tenders were sitting waiting wa snot expecting that. They were still hot and delicious but was not expecting them to be sitting.

First time customer. Doughnuts are incredibly soft and the glazing is a nice amount. Courteous staff.

It was lit...Love the female DJ she had you going up all night!

So so so good. The fried chicken biscuit was amazing. They have lots of doughnut options and a really cute patio. Coffee too!

Unique flavors and filling, not much seating!I love donuts, so I had to try Astro Donuts while in DC. I tried the Creme Brulee (which was the #1 Donut in DC per Washington Post several years ago) and the Cherry Blossom Donut. The Creme Brulee is fantastic and worth a try; it has the outer shell/crunch of a Creme Brulee, with the appropriate filling. Cherry Blossom was pretty good, with a cream cheese exterior and cherry fillingIm giving it four stars instead of five, since service was just ok and theres no-where to really sit and enjoy (other than a little table outside). I feel like they are a tad overpriced too, even for fancy donuts.

Maybe even four stars, Astro donuts are good. These donuts are overpriced. Definitely know some places that make better donuts for cheaper.

Very tasty and also fast service! I got the Southern Classic breakfast sandwich and the honey baklava doughnut. I was happy that the doughnut was not overly sweet.

Delicious food and deserts! I recommend the chicken sandwich and tots. There are 4 standard donut flavors and 2 rotating/seasonal. Great spot for lunch.

We were in DC and looking for some fried chicken. Heard this place had great doughnuts and fried chicken and that is 100% true.The fried chicken is very crispy, good seasoning (not spicy but seasoned) and incredibly moist. It wasnt greasy at all.But the doughnuts, wow. All of them were very fluffy and light. The sweetness was well balanced- it didnt feel like all sugar.The maple bacon had enough bacon that you could taste it in every bite and wasnt too sweet but the maple was still present.Key lime (monthly flavor) was well filled and had a nice tart filling to balance the Graham cracker crumb coating.But the peach blueberry cobbler doughnut was the best. Spiced with a hint of ginger it was not overly sweet at all. You could taste doughnut, fruit, and topping all at the same.

Old Bay doughnut with the chicken sandwich was delightful, boyfriend got the biscuit friend chicken sandwich I definitely recommend coming if you are in DC

Excellent food. The chicken breast with cheese and bacon on a doughnut was super. The chicken was moist and warm, mixed with the sweet doughnut was different and great. It was also great on the biscuit. The Cherry Blossom doughnut was amazing. I ate it so fast I forgot to photo it. They are expensive but probably worth it. Be aware that there is no seating inside and very little outside. You will enjoy it.

Not bad but not amazing. A little overpriced but overall it was meh. I think its like hipster fried chicken. Popeyes is much better even though this place was cute.

Roaming Rooster is my favorite fried chicken sandwich from a food truck, BUT Astros is my favorite fried chicken sandwich from a restaurant. I know they have a food truck too, but Ive never came across it.Regardless, whenever I come here, I always get the Old Bay All Day! Old Bay Doughnut Buns with bacon, lettuce, tomato, delicious fried chicken, with Siracha Buffalo drizzle (instead of their Siracha Mayo). My only criticism is I wish the food was hot or have freshly fried chicken since the good is typically lukewarm so I have to heat it up.The doughnuts are great! Every month, they change their 4 seasonal doughnuts, but the signature ones are quite delicious, especially the Creme Brulee one.

Amazing doughnuts! Stopped 2 days in a row.

Small location with no indoor seating. The line inside filled all the available space.Service was quick once reached counter. They have a limited menu and half dozen or so types of special donuts.The donut fried chicken sandwich was good. Donut was sweet but not too sweet. Chicken was not hot but was crunchy. Mulitple sause options. I added cheese.My kids enjoyed their sandwich and donuts. I thought sandwich was good. The donuts were okay but not great.There was limited seating outside.

Good doughnuts and fried chicken. Rotating selection of doughnuts.

Came in for a doughnut and sat down at the bar, restaurant part. Did not realize how big this place was. There was a downstairs gaming part, which I did not explore.I got a vanilla doughnut and it was soft and yum.

Fast and friendly service with delicious food. S’more donut is bomb!

Probably the food in heaven tastes like Astro. The shop front is TINY and they dont really have much seating. What they do have is a variety of amazing donuts and some of the best fried chicken. I love the creme brulee donuts. The donuts are square, which is fresh and exciting. The whole concept of a savory donut bun on the chicken seems strange, but its really good, like a fluffy yeast puff, just trust me on this one. I get the BLT sandwich. The honey mustard is out of this world. Its all greasy and fried and probably horrible for your waistline. But man is it good.

Great-tasting food! Get there early, or you might be standing in a long line! Love the spicy chicken breakfast concept!

2nd time in DC so always looking for something new. The chicken strips were peppery and spicy, but not juicy. They tasted like popeyes chicken. THE DONUTS on the other hand were awesome. No doubt which ever flavor you choose itd be a great experience.

Astro Donuts is totally unassuming. It is located within walking distance from the portrait gallery in a small shop with a dumbwaiter from the kitchen to the service floor. We ordered chicken sandwiches on a savory donut and a cheese biscuit (.... I have no words for either. They might be two of the best bread food items I have consumed,) and ended the trip with a donut from their creative selection. Limited seating available, but most people take it on the go. GO. HERE. NOW.

I loved the donuts at Astro, especially the peanut butter and jelly. They’re flavorful, big and decently priced. I would eat them again if I’m back in DC.

Freshest dang donuts ever. Tasty. Donuts and Fried Chicken. The lady in the shop was very friendly and helpful. The guy on the truck was very nice too. My son saw this place online. He wanted to try it. We drove from WV to DC. Worth it. Will be going back. Thank you for being kind, courteous, and welcoming. The chicken on the donut was to die for.

Great choice if you only have a quick moment to stop to grab something to eat. The chicken here is juicy and the sandwiches are small but mighty filling. Very limited seating (no seats inside and only a few tables outside) so whatever you order youll likely have to eat it elsewhere. Always and interesting selection of donuts, and they usually have a few chicken sandwich specials to choose from.

I visited Astro doughnut for the 3rd time within a year (specifically for a Fried Chicken sandwich). I was pretty exited because I know how good the sandwich was. I got the Asteroid. When I picked up the sandwich water residue came out which wasn’t a good first sign. I took the first bite and was underwhelmed. The sandwich was luke warm atbest. I was pretty upset and the lack of flavoring. I was with a group of people and the mentioned the same thing. Truly disappointed.

Tried Astro Doughnuts and Fried Chicken early Sunday morning. My wife and I pulled up right as they opened the doors. Its a Grab N Go style place with no seating except 4 two seater tables outside. I got the Chicken on cheddar biscuit with sriracha mayo and bacon and my wife got an egg, bacon and cheese on a biscuit. The chicken was moist, perfectly fried and seasoned well, and the biscuit was to die for. This was an excellent way to start a Sunday. We also tried the smores donut. Honestly the chocolate donut was a bit too rich for me (and I love chocolate, but this wasnt really a donut). We each took a bite and took the rest home with us for later for a dessert. We will definitely be back again.

Good eats! Got several doughnuts and some chicken this past weekend while in D.C. and we really enjoyed it.

Amazing donuts and chicken. We drive an hour just to come and order....then drive an hour back home. Best place!!!

Friendly staff and an odd combination of doughnut and fried chicken that works extremely well. Be warned it can get a little messy! Perhaps need more seating for people looking to eat in, not everyone wants to take it back to work

The flavors are all good, chicken sandwich was good. Nothing to really write home about, Ill go to Wendys and get two for the same price and flavor. I was just super disappointed in the size for the price. Also the bun was super greasy, oil squished out of it.

Good donuts. Good donuts and biscuit sandwhiches , but..overall..not great. Not by a longshot.
