New 30 Seat Location Of ‘Cartems Donuterie’ Imminent At 3040 West Broadway

IMG_9277

The good folks at Cartems Donuterie are opening a new location on the West Side. The new 1600 sqft space is at 3040 West Broadway in a brand new building, offering some 30 seats with the same basic set up as the Main Street location, which is to say beans from Elysian Coffee, scoops from Earnest Ice Cream, and a broad assortment of crazy delicious doughnuts (our faves includes the Canadian Whisky Bacon, Salted Caramel, and Earl Grey). I paid them a visit yesterday as they were putting the finishing touches on the interior. If all goes well, they’ll be doing their first friends and family dry-run tomorrow (Saturday, July 2). Expect them to officially open next week; Tuesday at the earliest. The hours will be 8am to 10pm (9am on weekends, closing 8pm on Sundays).
