National Donut Day Crawl NYC
If you’re going to celebrate National Donut Day on June 6, do it right—with a donut crawl through Brooklyn and Queens featuring some of the city’s most legendary (and wildly delicious) spots. Here’s the lineup:
✨ Stop 1: Kora (Sunnyside, Queens)
Kora is a Filipino-inspired donut. Each donut is handmade, filled to order, and rooted in family recipes—like the leche flan donut. It sells out fast, so come early!
🌺 Flavors: Ube, Mango, Leche Flan
🍩 Stop 2: Peter Pan Donut & Pastry Shop (Greenpoint, Brooklyn)
A retro dream with old-school charm. Peter Pan has been slinging classic donuts since the ’50s, and it still feels like stepping back in time. Don’t miss the red velvet or the sour cream glazed—and yes, the staff still wear vintage-style uniforms. Cash only!
🍓 Stop 3: Fan Fan Doughnuts (Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn)
Fan-Fan is the wild child of the bunch—famous for inventive flavors, gorgeous glazes, and Latin American flavors. Think Mexican hot chocolate, guava cheese, or peanut butter & jelly like you’ve never had it. They rotate flavors constantly, so every visit is a surprise.
National Donut Day, celebrated on the first Friday of June, is the perfect occasion to indulge in sweet treats. A donut crawl provides a great opportunity to explore the distinctive donut culture of New York City. Kora offers an exciting blend of Filipino flavors, with handmade donuts that come fresh from family recipes. Don’t forget to try their vibrant ube and refreshing mango donuts. Next on the list is Peter Pan Donut & Pastry Shop, a nostalgic haven for those who appreciate timeless flavors. This iconic spot has been serving classic donuts in a charming retro setting since the 1950s, making it a must-visit during your crawl. Finally, Fan Fan Doughnuts showcases creativity like no other. Known for their rotating and inventive flavors that fuse traditional donut-making with Latin American influences, each visit promises a fresh surprise.
