“Walk 100 metres east… We’re Open!” the sign says. And so I follow orders, and head to the building that used to house the West End Well, now the two-week old home of Suzy Q Doughnuts, 2.0.

It’s a great space, just on the fringes of the gastronomic hot zone of Hintonburg, but also off the beaten path. On that short dead end stretch of Wellington West’s furthest eastern bit, just where Wellington West morphs into Somerset West and jogs south toward Little Italy and Chinatown.

Not a great location, I would venture, for anyone trying to get noticed. But Suzy Q’s been noticed. And how. I can’t imagine the location will be anything but good news for the Suzy Q team, led by Sue Hamer, and for her legion of gourmet doughnut loving bffs.

Find them at 969 Wellington Street West.
