Hugs & Donuts

Gorge yourself on freshly baked gourmet goodness, including (but not limited to) options like lemon-curd filled lemon meringue pie donuts and Gatlin’s BBQ brisket kolaches.

The 10 Best Donut Shops in Houston
Before we dive into their insanely sweet lineup, we have to pay homage to Kickstarter for paving this treasure’s path to Houston. After exceeding their original $50,000 pledge goal, food truck maestros Jason Hill and Matt Opaleski joined forces to bring freshly baked goods to the Heights. We’re talking sausage- and steak-stuffed kolaches by the dozen, Fruity Pebble- and caramel-drizzled donuts, and a monsterous 10-inch Giant Donut that can be customized into a smiley face with a regular glazed or chocolate icing and sprinkles. Remember, it’s Texas—either go big or go home.
