Donut shop · Raleigh

@postcardnews

This family-run shop has quietly built a reputation for serving some of the fluffiest yeast donuts and most satisfying apple fritters in town. Though part of a small regional brand, the Raleigh outpost is locally owned and operated, with a friendly staff and a nostalgic, old-school feel. The donuts are made fresh daily and are praised by Triangle Food Guy and local Yelp reviewers for their balance of sweetness and lightness. The shop’s sense of community and consistent quality make it a favorite for families and longtime residents.
