Doughnut Dollies

The 11 Best Restaurants Around Virginia-Highland

"Doughnut Dollies takes its name from American Red Cross’ Donut Dollies who delivered coffee and donuts to soldiers during WWII. Luckily the only battle you'll have to endure to get these sweets is finding a parking spot on Virginia Ave. When you head into the tiny interior—covered with black and white subway tiles and a mural of a Rosie the Riveter-esque woman flexing with a donut—whether you get the yeast donuts made with 24-hour brioche dough or a cake donut, prepare yourself because they are massive. The hot cocoa donut is one of our faves, with gooey homemade marshmallows on top and a chocolate filling. Sometimes bigger really is better." - demarco williams, juli horsford, nina reeder
