Specialty Donut (Ridge Donut Cafe)Stephani Michelle

RIDGE DONUT CAFE: 1600 Portland Ave, Rochester, NY 14621

Ridge Donut cafe located in Irondequoit is a family-owned and operated eatery. Although donuts are their specialty (hence the name of the cafe) they also serve pastries, brownies, muffins, cookies and more. Hell, you can even order a smoothie and a breakfast sandwhich there while you're looking at that donut display. Moving onto their donuts, they offer many different varieties of donuts and even feature donut flavor specialties. Some flavors they have are Cinnamon Fry Cake, Peanut Butter and Jelly, Glazed Blueberry Cake, Tailight, Cherry, Apple Crunch, Apple Fritter, Coconut, Chocolate Fry Cake, White Cream, Powdered options and much more. Make sure to find them on Facebook so that you know when those featured flavors appear. They always make sure to let you know the date and time that they launch. It is important to note that their customer service is excellent and even on busy days, they know how to keep the line moving (Yes, this donut shop has lines out the door while their special flavors come out showing how delicious they are!).

Good news, if you are vegan, a little birdy told me that they have pleny of vegan donuts! You can also order other desserts, pastries and ice cream if the huge donut on the screen isn't enough for you. If you'd like to pay a visit or order a donut, please take note that the cafe is only open on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays and some of their flavors may be out of stock. If you're interested in a flavor that is out of stock or the donut shop is currently closed, pay close attention to their website for inventory updates or call the store for more information.
