Glam Doll Donuts
Two locations turning out donuts that look like a mid-century cartoon and taste better than they look. The Bombshell with peanut butter and jelly is a small experience. Open late on weekends.
The independent shops we send people to in Northeast Minneapolis. Part of our full independent shops guide and the Northeast neighborhood guide.

A small Northeast chocolatier that has been making serious bonbons and bars for over twenty years. The Salty Dog dark-chocolate-and-caramel bar is the introduction. Stocked at most of the city’s good cheese shops if you cannot make it to the Northeast spot.
A Northeast shop stocked entirely with goods made by local Minnesota and Wisconsin artists. Ceramics, candles, prints, soaps, and cards that consistently land better than the more-corporate gift-shop equivalents. Best place in town for a thoughtful gift on short notice.
A Johnson Street vintage shop with a tight focus on 70s, 80s, and 90s clothing for men and women. Well-organized racks, fair pricing, and a staff that actually knows the eras they are selling. The rare vintage store where the hunt does not feel like a chore.
