Danny’s Donuts

The place is named after Dan Abeyta, who worked in the donut industry for 46 years before he retired… and then went right back to it, opening Danny’s Donuts a few years after he retired. He missed the customer interaction and came out of retirement to open his own shop (after working at Dunkin’ Donuts on the East Coast, among other places). Danny created recipes featured in his shop and ran the store until his passing in January of 2013.

In December 2013, Danny’s Donuts was ranked in a national poll for “America’s Best 25 Donuts” for their Blueberry Cake donuts. A site called The Daily Meal ranked them as #6 in the poll.
