Shortstop Coffee & Donuts

Tucked down Little Hay Street, Shortstop Coffee & Donuts is pulling serious weight in the pastry game. Forget the heavy, oil-logged rings of yesteryear—these are thick, fluffy, non-greasy clouds of perfection. Sugar fiends are deeply obsessed with the Maple Walnut & Brown Butter donut, a sweet, textural masterpiece packing a serious crunch. Craving something different? The churro-donuts are pure brilliance. And the brew is just as dialed in. Espresso purists consistently single out the premium medium roast, whether it’s poured as a punchy long black or paired with flawlessly silky milk that never tastes scorched. The crew here are absolute legends, dropping genuine coffee knowledge while slinging fresh-baked crullers. Small, sweet, and totally essential.
