Goldie’s Donuts & Bakery is expanding once again. The locally owned bakery that began in Lyndhurst (5211 Mayfield Rd.) in 2018 opened a shop in Ohio City in 2023 and another in Brecksville last year.

Next up is Mentor in the former Pizza Hut space at 9225 Mentor Ave. Work is well underway.

Goldie’s is a family-owned business that makes its donuts, fillings, frostings and glazes from scratch daily using premium ingredients.

They are known for their selection of old-fashioned classics like sour cream donuts, maple-glazed cake donuts, honey-glazed crullers, strawberry jam-filled donuts and powdered sugar donuts, but also long johns, apple fritters, croissants, muffins and brownies. The donuts and pastries are made daily at the main kitchen in Lyndhurst and delivered fresh to each cafe.
