A majestic variety of old-school doughnuts, pastries and coffee-type beverages are available at Gross Donuts. The new business opened last week in the former Freedom Burrito location at 445 W. Cherry Lane (west of Highway 95 and north of Grocery Outlet).

The drive-through is open 24 hours, and the dining room seats 35 customers at tables and counters with seasonal outdoor seating for 15. Gross Donuts is named after owner Dennis Gross, who also has had the Donut Dugout at 1103 E. Seltice Way, Post Falls, about 10 years. His parents, Steve and Janey Gross, started a doughnut business in California in 1978 and later came to Idaho.

“They used only the finest ingredients to make great doughnuts, or you could say ‘Gross Donuts’,” Dennis said.

At least 30 varieties of goodies are available—doughnuts, maple bars and many more with toppings and fillings. Phone 930-4099.
