Silverton Donut Shop – classic taste from a homestyle place

IMG_2589Nothing wakes you up more than the smell of fresh donuts baking with a great cup of coffee. At Silverton Donuts, you can walk in first thing in the morning and have that experience 6 days a week.

Formerly in Pleasant Ridge, this old-school donut shop moved to Silverton about 5 years ago, bringing their made-from-scratch, retro-style donuts to the neighborhood. Owner Ron Jimmar is dedicated to his donuts, manning the shop 6 nights a week, making sure every handmade donut is of the highest quality. Fresh from scratch, from the donuts to the fillings to the frostings – nothing is from a package, everything is made by hand.

One of their best selling and most popular items is the Apple Fritter, often sold out before morning is over. Ron’s brother, who passed away 2 years ago, created this special pastry, and Ron enjoys continuing the tradition, with its perfect balance of apple, cinnamon, and the perfect amount of glaze. Silverton Donuts’ top seller is the Buttermilk donut; also popular are the cake and glazed donuts, cinnamon twist, the Honeymoon (a donut with a hollowed out center filled with cream) and the Klunker: part cake donut, part yeasts donut, all delicious! Don’t miss out on the Bowtie, a supersized “donut” double-dipped in the perfect amount of glaze.

It’s a small shop, but there’s room to sit and enjoy a cup of coffee with your donut and have a little family time in the morning. Silverton Donut Shop prides themselves on their family atmosphere, and you can tell the community appreciates it too, because they’re waiting in line to get in before they even open! The phone constantly rings with folks trying to place orders before they’re sold out!

Also noteworthy at Silverton Donuts: they are Certified Kosher by the Cincinnati Vaad Hoeir, which is helpful in serving more of the Cincinnati community. The coffee they serve, Summit Coffee, is kosher as well. You can also place special orders for events….Weddings, holiday parties, birthdays, Bar and Bat Mitvahs…..you name it!
