The best handmade donuts in North Carolina, right on US-401

Looking for the best donuts in the area? The Donut Shoppe is a veteran-owned bakery on US-401 in Louisburg, North Carolina, serving handmade donuts that folks drive in from Franklin, Wake and Granville counties for. Every glazed, frosted, sprinkled and filled donut is mixed, hand-cut and fried fresh each morning, then paired with hot coffee brewed all day. When the morning batch sells out, it's gone until tomorrow — that's how you know it's fresh.

We serve Franklin County and the Triangle: Louisburg, Franklinton, Youngsville, Bunn, Wake Forest, Rolesville, Henderson, Nashville and Zebulon. Order online before you leave the house and your dozen is waiting at the counter.
