Daylight Donuts at the Way Station

Daylight Donuts at the Way Station Owned by the Kretz family - established 2022 - serving famous Daylight Donuts to the York community and surrounding area. We chose our name carefully.

When a stage coach is traveling along the way, a way station is where they would pause for a break. This gives the weary travelers a chance to stretch and maybe sleep. When a pony express rider approached a way station, a new horse would be made ready for him. The way station was also a guiding stop along they way. In our journey to through life, we need a way station to exchange horses, take a break, or even just assess our path. We hope this new endeavor becomes that for people.

Flavors of the Week!
Our turnover flavor will be lemon meringue - a perfect blend of sweet and tart. 🍋🍋🍋 Pro tip: this is the easiest way to eat pie for breakfast OR you can take these home and enjoy them as dessert later in the day!
Our specialty flavor is crème brûlée. We're filling a bismark with Barvarian cream and then torching a sugar crust on top to get that signature crunchy caramelized sugar! 🔥🍩❤
Reminder that there is no trailer this week!
