La Rue Doughnuts, the beloved Dallas shop known for buttery brioche doughnuts and French-inspired pastries, officially opened its new Frisco location Aug. 15.<\/p>\n
The shop is located at 4747 4th Army Dr., bringing La Rue\u2019s growing following to a new corner of North Texas.<\/p>\n
From Carte Blanche To La Rue<\/p>\n
La Rue Doughnuts<\/a> began as an offshoot of Amy and Casey La Rue\u2019s award-winning restaurant Carte Blanche. The concept originally operated as a daytime bakery, serving pastries, croissants and doughnuts, before the owners eventually shifted their focus to La Rue as its own standalone business.<\/p>\n The first standalone La Rue location opened at Trinity Groves in West Dallas in 2024. Since then, the shop has developed a following for its chef-driven take on the classic doughnut. Now, that following is making its way north.<\/p>\n \u201cThe support for our new Frisco location has truly been overwhelming,\u201d La Rue said in an Instagram post<\/a>. \u201cOpening something new is always a little scary, and we\u2019re incredibly thankful for everyone who has come through our doors and shown us so much love.\u201d<\/p>\n What Makes A\u00a0La Rue Doughnut Different?<\/p>\n The shop\u2019s signature brioche doughnuts are made with real butter, fresh eggs and local milk. The dough is slowly fermented before being fried in beef tallow throughout the day, creating a rich, tender pastry with a buttery texture.<\/p>\n The menu includes straightforward doughnuts alongside filled varieties and seasonal creations. Flavors rotate, but past offerings have included candied lemon, brown sugar bacon and pecan, vanilla and French toast.<\/p>\n And while the doughnuts are the obvious draw, La Rue isn’t strictly a sweets stop. The menu also includes savory items that pair well with coffee and make the shop an option for a quick breakfast.<\/p>\n For Frisco residents who have been making the drive to Dallas for La Rue, the new location should make that craving considerably easier to satisfy.<\/p>\n Don’t miss anything Local.
