The Quintessential Symbol of Carolina Beach: Britt's Donut ShopBritt's Donut Shop is a "must see". Each spring, locals and tourists line up along the center of the boardwalk when Britt's reopens after its winter hiatus. There is something that is somewhat hilarious about this event. People 'round here get really excited about these donuts. You'll seen middle age men with coy smiles of anticipation waiting for their donuts. It makes you wonder if 60 years ago, they were once little boys waiting at this exact same place.
Britt's has been in operation since 1939. Little has changed about these donuts, and that is what make them so fabulous. Biting into one of these donuts is like stepping back into time. Food probably tasted a lot better back then, less processed and more real. Britt's Donuts aren't mass-produced and machine-made like Krispy Kreme Donuts so the taste and texture of a Britt's Donut is more authentic. Don't forget to bring your cash; Britt's does not accept credit cards. The beauty of Britt's Donuts is in its simplicity. There is only one type of donut, a glazed donut that is handmade and deep-fried at this small shop. You can sit at the counter and order a cup of milk or coffee. Or you can get them to go in a paper bag to enjoy at the beach or in an Adirondack chair near the gazebo. |
