STL Donut Tour Episode 045 - Mister Donut (Godfrey, IL)

Описание: Good morning St. Louis! Welcome to another stop on the STL Donut Tour! Today’s Donut Destination is the last surviving Mister Donut in North America located 22 miles from St. Louis in Godfrey, Illinois! In 1955, Harry Winokur and his brother in law Bill Rosenburg broke off their partnership, each to begin his own chain of coffee and doughnut shops. In 1956 Harry founded Mister Donut and Bill founded Dunkin Donuts.

This particular donut shop opened in 1980 and the store’s bright orange and white color scheme matches its retro vibe!

I met the current owner, Caesar Blanco who bought the store from the original owner back in 2004. Caesar and I talked about the donut shop’s history and all the tourists he gets from all over the world! Make sure to say hello and let him know the STL Donut Tour sent you when you visit! Happiness is … breakfast at Mister Donut! So let’s check out those Doughnuts!
