Brunswick, Maine – [May 7, 2024] – The Holy Donut, a cherished local and family-owned business known across the nation for its unique Maine Potato Donuts, is thrilled to announce the opening of its newest location in Brunswick, ME. The grand opening is slated for Friday, May 17th, 2024, followed by a ribbon cutting celebration between 9am-10am. After a warmly received announcement in December 2023, this expansion marks a significant step for the beloved brand as it continues to spread its roots within the Maine community.

Nestled at 145 Pleasant Street, the upcoming Brunswick store will offer ample parking and the convenience of a drive-through service, ensuring every visit is as pleasant as the street it resides on. The Holy Donut is committed to creating a welcoming space where both locals and visitors can enjoy their meticulously crafted donuts, made from scratch daily using the freshest, locally sourced ingredients. With a roster of flavors that rotate with the seasons, alongside year-round favorites like the dark chocolate sea salt and maple bacon, there’s a treat for everyone’s taste buds. In anticipation of the grand opening, a Holy Donut food truck has been serving up smiles and sweets on Thursdays through Sundays since early March. Over the winter, The Holy Donut team has been hard at work transforming the existing building into a fresh new space for guests to grab a quick donut and coffee, pick up a dozen for the weekend, or chat with friends in the cozy café dining room.

Jeff Buckwalter, co-owner and CEO of The Holy Donut, expresses his enthusiasm: “Bringing The Holy Donut to Brunswick and the Mid-coast region is an exciting venture for us. The community’s vibrant spirit is a perfect match for our brand, and we’re eager to introduce our handcrafted donuts to new friends and neighbors. We believe in creating moments of joy through our food, and we look forward to making those connections here.”

As The Holy Donut prepares to open its doors, the brand continues to explore collaborative opportunities with local businesses, schools, and community groups, extending the sense of partnership and community involvement that has been a hallmark of their presence in Portland, Scarborough, Arundel and the Kennebunks.
