If there’s one thing a connoisseur will notice quickly it is that Utah likes it’s Donuts the same way it likes it’s contraception, low cost and old fashioned, a fact that sees Banbury Cross often sold out of top choices by 9:00am on weekends.
Part of Salt Lake City since 1986, a second location only recently debuted in Centerville, it is inside the small shop with a drive-thru that guests will find several styles of freshly-made Pastries including Muffins and Cinnamon Rolls.
Uncertain regarding the name, though ties to England would seem likely, Banbury Cross focuses on classic varieties made by hand including a somewhat dense yeasted base offered beneath simple Glaze or flavored Frosting.
Not on par with Fresh Donuts & Deli, though a Chocolate Cake Ring topped in Frosting and Jimmies is among the best of its kind, Banbury Cross’ Old-Fashioned is dry even beneath thick Maple while the Apple Fritter needs more Fruit and a bit more attention in the fryer to keep them from becoming soggy.
