Rogers / Fayetteville: Rick’s Bakery

It seems strange to use the words “elegance” and “donuts” both in the same sentence, but somehow it just seems appropriate for Rick’s. Unless you’re new to the area, you’re likely already familiar with the brand. If you aren’t familiar with them, just know that they’ve developed a great name in these parts for a reason! After running a successful bakery in Fayetteville, they recently opened a new location in Rogers near the Malco theater.
They deliver to your door too!
Rogers Address: 4600 W Rozell St, Rogers, AR 72756
Faytown Address: 1220 N College Ave, Fayetteville, AR 72703
Springdale: Old Tyme Donuts
