Best Donuts in the Grand Strand

  By  Ashlee Carson

Donut lovers, rejoice! While there are plenty of Krispy Kreme and Dunkin locations up and down the Grand Strand, we’re treating you to a list of great local donut shops to check out. These aren’t your average bakeries either. With flavors like maple bacon or strawberry cheesecake, you may even want to buy a few for dessert! Here’s a list of our favorite specialty donut shops around Myrtle Beach.
