Amazing looking German donut shop to open first UK store in Cardiff

Cardiff is home to many incredible doughnut bakers from the amazing Yeast Beast van to Kreme of Cardiff in Cardiff Market. Now another doughnut business is hoping to tempt Cardiffians with their circular treats.

German brand Royal Donuts is coming to Cardiff in their first move to the UK. They already have stores in France, Switzerland, Germany, and more European countries and are now moving to the UK. You can keep up to date with the latest What's On news by signing up to the newsletter here.

Their drool-worthy donuts include cookie donuts that ooze cookie dough, Oreo donuts that come with strawberries and have an Oreo sandwiched in the middle of the donut, and donuts topped with pretzels, fruit, sweets, chocolate and so much more. Once open they will also be selling milkshakes, coffees, and smoothies.

There is no opening date yet for Royal Donuts however it will be opening in Grangetown at 34 Clare Road. The German company has over 200 stores in Germany, after beginning the business in 2018.

Royal Donut's aim is to combine "the modern and the tried and tested." The treats are prepared fresh every day and decorated by hand. On their website, they say: "At Royal Donuts there are no off-the-shelf dough rings, but royal donut creations with a guarantee of taste explosions."

The German company is not the first business to choose Cardiff as the place to open their first UK venture. In 2021 The Scandinavian beer hall Heidi's Bier Bar opened in Cardiff, which was their first UK bar.

This has been a great success and Heidi's now regularly attracts a long queue of partygoers on a Saturday night. Other new places to open soon in Cardiff include the bar Flight Club, where you get to play fun rounds of darts, Giggling Squid which is a Thai restaurant, and a new coffee shop Black Sheep Coffee.

Recently new burger restaurant Eat The Bird opened in Cardiff, as its first Welsh restaurant, and you can read our review here.
