We have lots of great local donut options in Rochester! These places really do donuts right! The bakeries and farms below dedicate part or nearly all of their creative edible endeavors to donuts! For a special treat with your family throughout the year, support more local businesses with one of these places. Pay special attention to donut shop hours, as some are only open in the mornings, and may be closed certain days of the week. Our Guide To Donuts is sponsored by Herman’s Farm Market.
