Donut lovers rejoice: After much anticipation, The Bronx’s FIRST Krispy Kreme is now open!

But the wait is over and despite the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic, Bronxites were flocking to the store to get their hands on fresh Krispy Kreme donuts that are made right here in our borough at their Zerega warehouse.

In fact, that very warehouse in The Bronx provides all NYC Krispy Kreme locations with their donuts.

As a reminder, they are only open for pick up and carry out as coronavirus shut down regulations are still in effect.
