Things are about to get a lot sweeter in the South End.
On Tuesday, August 25th, 2020, Krispy Kreme is opening at 2116 Hawkins Street. The location will also be home to Insomnia Cookies. Talk about a sugar rush!
Throughout grand opening week, Krispy Kreme will randomly give away 120 “Celebration Dozen Tickets” to in-shop guests. Each ticket provides the winner with one free dozen Original Glazed Doughnuts every month for a year.
The South End location of Krispy Kreme will be unique among all Krispy Kreme locations.
One special feature will be a 24-hour a day Doughnut Vending Machine that will serve 3-packs of select, made fresh daily doughnut flavors.
See a sneak preview of the vending machine below! It takes about 53 seconds to get your 3-pack.
Also available will be:
- Scoop sandwiches, the brand’s take on the classic ice cream sandwich, featuring Original Glazed Doughnut-infused ice cream, scooped between a sliced doughnut with a combination of toppings and drizzles. Options include Vanilla Sprinkled, Triple Chocolate, Cookies & Kreme™, Vanilla Chip, Chocolatey Caramel Coconut, and Vanilla Fruity Crunch.
- Hand-spun milkshakes made with Original Glazed Doughnut-infused ice cream, topped with whipped cream and a mini-Original Glazed Doughnut. Flavors include Vanilla Glazed, Double Chocolate, Salty Caramel, Classic Strawberry, and OREO® Cookies & Kreme
Stylistically the location will pay homage to the Queen City and to doughnuts, with an exterior mural that includes 72 doughnuts, each with its own special ode to Charlotte, designed by local artist Gina Elizabeth Franco. There will also be an interior-facing mural of Charlotte’s skyline.
The Krispy Kreme South End shop will be open seven days a week: Sunday through Thursday, from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m., and Friday and Saturday from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m.
Insomnia Cookies will serve warm, delicious cookies until midnight Sunday through Wednesday and until 1 a.m. Thursday through Saturday. To place an Insomnia Cookies order for delivery until midnight, visit www.insomniacookies.com.
South End guests can purchase doughnuts via in-shop takeout or by ordering doughnuts online or through the Krispy Kreme app for pick-up or delivery within 10 miles of the shop’s location.
