New Yorkers will soon be able to get their donut fix around the clock with the opening of the new Krispy Kreme flagship. Not only will the new shop serve up all kinds of delicious donuts, but it will also be open 24/7.
At 4,500 square feet, the new Krispy Kreme flagship in Times Square will be the largest Krispy Kreme store ever when it opens in early 2020. The outside of the building is designed to look light a giant donut box illuminated by neon lights. Inside, guests will be able to view the entire donut-making process from a stadium-style seating area. In addition to serving up dozens of different kinds of donuts, the shop will also sell New York-themed Krispy Kreme merchandise like tote bags, hats, and mugs.
