Why We Love It: Originally opened in 1947 before there was a Little Havana and expanded over the decades, the beloved family business closed in 2000. The former owner’s brother-in-law, Robert Taylor, teamed up with local businessman Jorge Rios to revive the brand. “The core donuts are still there – glazed, chocolate glazed, old-fashioned cake, Boston cream filled,” says Taylor, 63. But now they’ve added guava, key lime and mango donuts. The menu lists traditional American coffee plus cortaditos, coladas, iced coffee and cold brew.
