A New Sweet Spot in Aventura

By: Farrah Buchwald

The Salty Donut, a well-known donut and coffee shop, has officially opened a new location at the Esplanade in Aventura! This marks the brand’s continued expansion across South Florida, bringing its popular menu of creative donuts and specialty beverages to a new city. 

Founded in 2015 by Andy and Amanda Rodriguez, The Salty Donut began as a pop-up shop running out of a vintage camper in Wynwood. Since then, it has grown into a nationally recognized brand with locations in cities such as Miami, Dallas, Austin, and Charlotte. The company is known for its chef-made donuts that blend classic flavors with unique, seasonal ingredients.

The Aventura location offers a “grab-and-go” style, catering to customers looking for a quick yet high-quality experience. The shop serves a rotating menu of donuts with delicious flavors. This includes maple bacon, guava and cheese, brown butter & salt, and more. It also has vegan and gluten-free donut options making it more accessible to all. In addition to its donuts, The Salty Donut also offers a full coffee menu, including cold brews, espresso drinks, matcha, and teas.

With its combination of inventive flavors, quality ingredients, and a growing reputation, The Salty Donut’s arrival in Aventura adds a new option for local food lovers seeking something beyond the ordinary.
