COLONIAL DONUTS

SERVING:

Here’s a great snippet from “L. Boogie” on yelp: “You gotta love a donut shop that misspells it’s own name! In 2004, they raised a new sign that read “Coloinal Donuts”. Let me count the ways: They’re always open. The donuts are goooooood. Sometimes they put the wrong donut in my bag, but it’s usually an upgrade from whatever I asked for. Thank you Coloinal Donuts for your “upcoming” movie posters that are always 6 months late, your introspective and stoic homeless patrons, your superficially intense college study groups, and your chess-loving curmudgeons who never seem to make a move.”

OPEN UNTIL: 24 HOURS!
