Head north on Limestone just past the University of Kentucky campus, and you'll find North Lime Coffee & Donuts. Nuzzled between charming, cozy restaurants and really beautiful street art, North Lime coffee & donuts is truly a hidden gem; famous for not only their amazing coffee and donuts, but the generosity of the business itself. A whole ten percent of their profit is given back to the neighborhoods they serve.
This past weekend I was lucky enough to get to try North Lime coffee and donuts myself. When I walked in (after waiting in the impressively long line that wrapped around the building,) I immediately felt at home. The atmosphere in there cannot be bought, but is created by the warm people, delicious smells, and of course, the donuts.
The donuts are hand-made every morning, and boy, you can tell. Warm, flaky, and down right so good. I can show you better than I can tell you.
The Classic Glaze
Who could mistake the square, distinct look of a North Lime original donut? Not me.
Cinnamonkey
Am I dreaming or is this little, adorable rendition of cinnamon sugar monkey bread the cutest?
They're ready for their close up.
Funnel Cake
One word: Amazing.
Lavender Chai Latte
Can't forgot about a drink! This lavender chai was their drink of the week, and for good reason. So light and refreshing with the hint of lavender, yet warming and cozy with the spicy chai. Yum.
Although, these are the only few donuts I tried when I was there, I am eagar to go back and try the rest. The atmosphere, coffee, and donuts cannot be beat. North Lime Coffee and Donuts 10/10, would recommend.
