Krispy Kreme is open for business at Bathurst and Harbord
Long, long ago, there was a magical presence in Toronto, gracing food courts and office buildings like gleaming, artery-clogging jewels. We’re talking, of course, about Krispy Kreme, the American doughnut chain that shuttered its downtown locations in 2004 when stocks tumbled. Well, sweet seekers who have had to make do with Cinnabon, stale KK treats from the gas station or long drives to Mavis Road can rejoice: the chain has opened a tiny shop at Bathurst and Harbord, right across from Central Technical School.
The new place is the fourth location in Canada; the others are in Mississauga, the south shore of Montreal and off Highway 73 near Quebec City. In other words, Toronto’s new Krispy Kreme is the only one downtown. Perhaps this is why the chain has attempted to class up the joint by changing the location’s name to Doughnut Café. It’s perfect: if the Harbord Room ever runs out of dessert, it can hawk the locally sourced treats from this little “café” down the road.
OMG, location is perfect. Central tech kids will keep it in business.
dropped by. wasnt expecting such good coffee
Never mind the kids at Central Tech…it’s a short walk for those from Harbord Collegiate & King Edward Public School.
as my boss just commented, great they are now ready to poison our youth! Doughnut cafe? are they for real? oh I forgot, it’s an American thing!
lighten up people .. there’s a timmies on every corner serving flash frozen goodness .. but I guess thats fine cause thats a Canadian thing!
Testify Danny! Right on.
Yo thats me and my bros in front!
One doughnut there equals 30 teaspoons of sugar..THE U.S DREAM DOUGHNUT..NO THANKS…

Shut the heck upu all negative people. If you have tried it buch of idiots it’s because you knew what to expect just like a Big Mac and a diet Coke. So if you want to fool someone… fool yourself idiot! Krispy Kreme is here for thos who are happy in life… for the others… there’s grass; enjoy cows!! Mooooooo

Love that Krispy Kreme is in Toronto. I wouldn’t normally write this but to the grumblers I say Thank you America!
I love Krispy Kreme Donuts. Boy, their coffee is better than what I have expected. People who are against Americanism are crazy. Marlboro cigarette, Starbucks coffee, Coke, Hamburgers at McDonalds, your Coach hangbags, your Levi’s jeans, your Nike shoes, your Rayban sunglasses, the airplanes that you fly with 747s by Boeing are all American company products, and many drugs people use and take everyday. Why complain? Just enjoy life; and these companies help us enjoy our lives more!
