There's nothing like a good donut, and here in Tennessee, there are quite a few great little shops that are perfect for a Saturday treat. Johnson City, located on the far eastern side of the state, is home to one of the sweetest little bakeries in the area: Peggy Ann Bakery. It's a tight local chain, with another location in Greeneville and one in Alabama, but despite multiple locations remains a classic eatery known for its friendly-friendly space and hospitable service. Come for a treat or perhaps for lunch, because this bakery does it all.
Peggy Ann Market first opened in Greeneville, Tennessee in the early 1980s, and has since become a popular spot for folks to enjoy a good lunch or a perfectly sweet treat.
Not only can you show up to enjoy a cake, cupcake, or donut at Peggy Ann Bakery, but you can also order your favorite treats for a private event. Not looking to bake for your birthday party? Then you can order a cake for yourself! Peggy Ann's even makes wedding cakes.
Just take a look at those donuts! You can enjoy everything from classic glazed to chocolate dipped with sprinkles, or even apple fritter and maple bacon flavors.
If you're looking for other pastries, you'll find cinnamon rolls, cheese danishes, and brownies on the menu as well. The bakers at Peggy Ann Bakery are in the kitchen early to make everything from scratch using family recipes for tried-and-true classics.
This lemon poppyseed cake donut looks like the perfect summertime treat! Specialty donuts are rotated continuously, so make sure you stop by to see what's in stock.
Have you ever had a Donut Cristo? It makes for the perfect blend of sweet and savory. The bakery offers a series of freshly roasted coffees and grab-and-go lunch specials that make dining easy.
