Savannah Donut FAQ
Are these holiday spots ranked?
No. Every bakery and donut shop here is one we would happily send a friend to, so we list them by neighborhood instead of ranking them.
When can I find these holiday treats?
Most holiday specials show up from late November through New Year's, and many bakeries take holiday pie and cake preorders in early December. Menus change every season, so check each shop's site or social before you go.
Can I taste some of these on a tour?
Yes. Our Savannah Donuts & Sweet Treats Walking Tour visits favorites like Savannah's Candy Kitchen and Paris Baguette, and our Savannah After Dark haunted tour stops at Leopold's Ice Cream. Lines can vary by day and season.
