The University Park spot (6601 Hillcrest Ave.) has been around quite a while, and if you can find a parking spot is worth the trip.
Pookie's Donuts is two kinds of crazy. One because of a hot pink mechanical gorilla Alice Laussade wrote about last year, and also because, in addition to doughnuts, they serve Philly cheesesteaks.
No, not technically a donut shop, but it's really hard to talk about wonderful rolls of dough w/o mentioning some of the goods at Village Baking Co., like the laminated Brioche fresh out of the oven.
This place captured our hearts two years ago and was named the 2012 Best Doughnut Shop.
