Best Donut Shops in Austin
The standard donut has come along way in the past few decades, from a customary morning staple serving mainly as the foundation for cop humor to an object of obsession that swapped out cupcakes as the “everyday sweet treat that everyone’s making all fancy” of the moment. On the other hand, as the previously mentioned cupcake thing became more of a short-lived fad, the donut boom has shown much more staying power, and our lives tend to be richer and more carb-filled for this. To help satisfy your desires for donuts, check out this list of the best donuts in Austin.

Voodoo Doughnut – 6th Street
212 E 6th St.
Austin, TX 78701
512-215-8586
Voodoo Doughnut is the brainchild of old friends and entertainment-minded Portlanders Kenneth “Cat Daddy” Pogson and Tres Shannon. In 2000, they decided to embark on a shared entrepreneurial venture – something that combined quality hospitality with their daring do-it-yourself brand of show business. The research revealed that downtown Portland lacked a single doughnut shop, so in 2003 they rented a hole-in-the-wall storefront scrunched between two Old Town nightclubs, joked to friends and family about being bent on “world doughnut domination,” and opened Voodoo Doughnut. Their initial pastry offerings were a mix of the classic and the unconventional. – voodoodoughnut.com
