Full menu

Yeast-raised

  • Maple barLong rectangular raised donut spread with maple-flavored icing; soft, chewy dough and a sweet, faintly woody topping popular on the West Coast.
  • Sprinkle ringYeast-raised ring topped with vanilla or strawberry icing and a heavy scatter of rainbow sprinkles that add a light crunch.
  • Glazed twistTwo strands of yeast dough twisted together, fried and glazed, giving more chewy edges and glaze-catching crevices than a standard ring.
  • Cinnamon sugar raisedWarm, fluffy yeast donut tossed in cinnamon sugar instead of glaze, with a grainy, sparkling coating over the soft interior.

Cake donuts

  • Buttermilk barRectangular buttermilk cake donut with a crisp, glazed shell and a tangy, close-grained center that pairs well with drip coffee.
  • Old-fashionedSour cream cake donut with cracked, craggy edges that fry extra crisp, finished with a glaze that pools in every fissure.
  • Blueberry cakePurple-flecked cake donut flavored with blueberry and glazed all over; moist, close crumb with a fruity, slightly jammy taste.
  • Chocolate cake donutDeep cocoa cake donut, plain or glazed, with a fine, tight crumb and a flavor somewhere between brownie and devil's food cake.

Filled donuts

  • Lemon-filledGranulated-sugar-coated shell holding bright, tangy lemon curd; a sharp citrus counterpoint to the sweet fried dough.
  • Apple-filledFried yeast pocket filled with chunky spiced apple and rolled in sugar; soft and warm-tasting, a little like a hand pie.
  • PB&J donutYeast donut filled with grape jelly, topped with peanut butter icing and chopped peanuts for a sweet-salty lunchbox nod.
  • Boston creamRound yeast shell piped full of vanilla custard and topped with glossy chocolate frosting, echoing the classic Boston cream pie.
