Description

Not a restaurant per se, but a walk-up counter where you can score good coffee and fancy artisanal doughnuts. Dynamo specializes in raised yeast cake doughnuts, excitingly flavored and glazed, made from local and organic ingredients whenever possible. There's a rotating flavor roster, with several different varieties available daily. Specialties include salted caramel, chocolate spice, chocolate with star anise glaze, lemon thyme, candied orange blossom, toasted coconut, and pistachio. But Dynamo's most famous doughnut is its maple-glazed apple, garnished with crunchy bacon bits.
