If you’re catching a show at the Earl or hanging out in one of the bars in East Atlanta Village, you might get the munchies late at night. If so, Happy Donuts is a great option, as it is open 24 hours to satisfy that 3 a.m. donut craving. It’s nothing fancy to look at, but it delivers the much-needed sugar high in the form of flavors like red velvet, toasted coconut, lemon jelly, and black raspberry. The main appeal may be the availability, but they deliver a solid donut with some interesting flavor choices.

Da Vinci’s prides itself on offering excellent donuts at a more modest size than the traditional fare, so you may be able to try out more than one flavor, including hand-dipped toppings. Some of the most popular choices are cinnamon roll, French toast, maple bacon, and salted caramel, but they also have options including chocolate Oreo, Coconut Crunch, Pina Colada, Vanilla Fruity Pebbles, and Raspberry Lemonade. Hardcore individualists can even choose their own flavor and topping combinations for a unique treat. You’ll probably want to order a strong cup of joe to cut through the sugary goodness as you enjoy these interesting specialties.
