“From old-fashioned frosted classics to bacon-topped maple creams, and trendy Hawaiian-style donuts with ube-flavored glaze,” the metro’s donuts shops are above and beyond to fight for the best donuts around.

“The shops landed on the national list after Yelp said it studied doughnut-related businesses across the country. The website then “ranked those spots using a number of factors, including the total volume and ratings of reviews” that customers left from January 2022 to March 2023. The results were published before National Doughnut Day, which falls on June 2 this year,” the Macon Telegraph reports.

Overall, the No. 1 doughnut shop in the country was Rocklin Donuts & Cinnamon near Sacramento, California.
