Dixie Hwy Donuts Debuts Just in Time for National Donut Day Celebration!

6108 S. Dixie Highway, West Palm Beach, FL, USA - There’s a sweet wave of excitement rolling into West Palm Beach as the highly anticipated Dixie Hwy Donuts prepares to open its doors on June 6, just in time for the beloved National Donut Day. This new establishment, owned by the experienced Sarah Callis, is set to elevate the local donut scene.
