Whitney Donut and Sandwich Shop, located in Hamden, Connecticut, was established in 1980 by Peter and Sharon Demetropoulos. Offering handmade confections, they quickly became a must stop shop for coffee and donuts in the New Haven County area. As time went by, the family expanded the menu to include traditional lunch counter fare, and soon after, relocated to a new building with a larger kitchen and the addition of a drive thru for their patrons on-the-go. The new location has become a destination for not only locals, but people from all over the state of Connecticut. Now, the restaurant is in the hands of Peter and Sharon’s daughter Julie, and son-in-law Saki. And while the menu has expanded to include gourmet soups and sandwiches, there’s still no better place to grab a fresh donut!
