Donuts may be guilty pleasures for most people, but when you visit Fray's Donut House, the guilt totally disappears. This fun donut shop is decidedly retro and prides itself in serving up donuts the way you remember them.

But of course, the donuts are the main attractions and with over 20 different varieties, you're sure to find a dozen that's just perfect for you!
