Donuts Delite

Sadly, after it closed - 2007 Window Reflections - 2007

See Gone, But not Forgotten.

Donuts Delite (where Culver hits Empire) was the BEST donut shop in Rochester, hands down. The exterior, menu, and personality seemed unchanged since about 1960, it had a crowd of regulars at the counter, and their selection of donuts could not be beat (about 8-9 types of jelly donuts was common). At Halloween they were famous for their pumpkin donuts. There's a photo of their donut rack here. They closed due to pressures from the chain stores.
