Donuts, coffee & More

We believe that fresh, hand-crafted products are the best products.

We hand roll and hand cut our donuts in small batches throughout the day. We use quality ingredients and fresh fruits in our glazes, fritters and doughs. We believe we have mastered the perfect raised dough. As it happens the perfect raised dough is vegan friendly. From our love of all things donut, the Luther Sunrise breakfast sandwich was born - egg, cheese and a sausage patty on a maple-glaze donut bun.

We take the same care and attention with our handmade coffee drinks, from the simplest cup of dark roast to our Honey Lavender Lattes and Cortaditos. We brew coffee from Baltimore-based Zeke's Coffee, as well as Sugar Shack's own Virginia-sourced brand.

Sugar Shack loves all of our neighbors!  Everyone is welcome to relax, eat donuts, drink coffee and be safe and happy.

Our Story

Sugar Shack Donuts and Coffee opened its first location in Richmond, VA, in the summer of 2013. It was the brainchild of founder and CEO, Chef Ian Kelley. Today, Sugar Shack prepares delicious, handmade donuts in more than 10 locations, with more stores on the way. Each location is owned and operated locally with the same dedication to quality and community as the original on N. Lombardy.

Sugar Shack DMV opened its first location in the Parker Gray neighborhood of Alexandria, VA. Owner Rob Krupicka decided to bring Sugar Shack to the DMV after falling for their fluffy, handmade donuts and fresh, inventive glazes and toppings in Richmond. 

We pride ourselves on being rooted in the community. We provide competitive wages and benefits, support local charities, source locally and collaborate often with other local businesses. 

Today, Sugar Shack DMV includes our original Alexandria location, our Arlington location, our Shaw Washington, D.C. location, and our Lansdowne location on the way.
