Next time you find yourself in Providence, RI make sure you visit PVDonuts! They are a really cool specialty donut shop with delicious donuts. A good friend of mine recommended I stop by the next time i’m in Providence and I made sure to add it to my list. For today’s post i’m sharing 5 fun facts about PVDonuts and I hope you find them interesting!
- They make everything fresh and from scratch! This includes rolling, cutting, dipping, and decorating all by hand.
- Their team makes anywhere from 1,000 to 2,000+ donuts a day.
- They make a Flourless donut that is available daily and “flourless” to them means that it is not made with any wheat products, instead, they use Bob’s Red Mill 1-to-1 Baking Flour.
- An average day 700+ people visit their shop daily.
- PVDonuts was funded out of pocket by owners Lori and Paul Kettelle. They are a small, family-owned and operated business with no investors or restaurant groups involved.
Not only are their donuts delicious, but they are also so pretty! Make sure you get there early because there tends to be a line (yes, they are that good) but trust me, it’s worth the wait!
PVDonuts is located at
79 Ives St,
Providence, RI 02906
Hours are Wednesday – Sunday from 8am – 4pm

WOW those donuts look AMAZING!!! There’s apparently a cool donut shop where I live, but I haven’t had a chance to check it out – you’ve inspired me, now I have to take my kids there!
I like doughnuts. These one look yum. You have written your review really well.
Those donuts look amazing and so delicious! i love donut! such a fab treat! 1000 to 2000 donuts is quite a big number!
Yes please. i just love donuts and these look incredible. i hope to be able to try these one day!
as a retired detective… you know I love doughnuts! No, its not just a running joke about cops and doughnuts, most cops love them, and I’m no exception. I won’t, however, eat just any doughnuts. I like them freshly made with quality ingredients… and if they’re pretty, that’s just “icing on top.” I’ll definitely check out that shop if I find myself in the area. Thanks for making me hungry!
Donuts are always made to look so colorful and pretty with their presentation. But it’s just me, no matter how good I think it looks, I just don’t like donuts. Haha! Can’t say the same for the two boys in my life though.
now i want a donut! These look so yummy and I love how you shared some cute and interesting facts about the shop!
That is so exciting that they have flourless donuts! I’m allergic to gluten (although I’ve been living in serious denial since I moved to Australia as I did not get as sick as quickly as I did in the US) so It’s always great to see gluten-free options. Donuts are something I miss eating.
Now That’s a lot of donuts. I love traveling to new cities to find out what they are doing in the fried dough arena.
Those donuts look AMAZING! I am a huge fan of treating myself to a good gourmet donut, but there are not nearly enough amazing options near where I live. going to have to mark that one down for a travel must-visit.
Oh i love donuts SO much! These look amazing. If i ever make it to Providence I’m definitely hitting this place up!

I just had my lunch, but those donuts are already making me drool. On my list when I visit Rhode Island.
It’s good to know about this alternative donut shop. celiacs will be happy to know they serve flourless donuts. I hope this product is available here also.
OMG, these donuts look amazing! When i travel, i actually like to find local donut shops because there are always such fun and unique flavors in different parts of the country! Anything with rainbow sprinkles makes me really happy.
These doughnuts look so tasty! I like that they have unique design 😉
These look amazing! It’s always fun to find unique corners of a new city to enjoy. i love the creative accents decorating those doughnuts!
I love donuts and these donuts seem so yummm and colorful. Love your pics.
I love donuts like this! They remind me of this place I went to in Portland, Oregon that was amazing. They were all made differently with lots of fun ingredients!
wow. not all donuts cafe make everything from scratch! i’d definitely pick a shop that does this over those which don’t!
