Donuts for Bergen and Rogers?
laura palmer
"Elsie's donuts" applied for an initial kitchen inspection at 1031 Bergen st, between Rogers and Nostrand

Here's that storefront via google streetview:

I hope they'll succeed there! Doesn't seem like an area that gets that much foot traffic.

whynot_31edited December 2014They might be counting on a lot of B to B.
...supplying coffeeshops, etc
The Philadelphia themed pretzel place seems to have a similar model.

ehgeeI would be down for a good ol' fashioned donut shop to compete with our local spate of luxury doughnuts. Not that there's anything wrong with luxury doughnuts, although Doughnut Plant is awful pricey, even compare with Dough. -
suppleknucklesif it's good ol' fashioned donut shop look no further than Nostrand Donut Shop down on Nostrand and Church. we got it all, here south of Empire :v -
whynot_31In my experience, churches are big consumers of donuts.
There are a lot of churches in that area, and the owner might benefit from advertising to the local clergy.
