🌟 Where to get fall flavored doughnuts: La Rue Doughnuts in Dallas🌟

Why we love it:
❤️ La Rue Doughnuts serves up amazing, hand crafted doughnuts at their shop in Trinity Groves! If you were a fan of the owners’ previous bakery, Carte Blanche, you will love their new spot.
❤️ They have classic flavors like vanilla brioche and apple fritters, and more innovative options like the bacon, almond, caramel, banana brioche.
❤️ You can indulge in two limited-time fall flavors this month: gluten free pumpkin powdered sugar (my personal favorite) and an adorable cookies & scream (white chocolate pastry cream filled brioche with cookie crumb & chocolate cookie ghost).
❤️ Their drip coffee is my favorite in Dallas, but they also have speciality coffees if that’s more your style! Right now they have a festive Monster Matcha.
❤️ While there isn’t indoor seating, there’s ample seating on the front patio. After, you can go for a walk on the nearby Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge!
