  Don't be fooled by the exterior if it looks plain and maybe a little unmarked. This is a great spot to grab some donuts (and vegan pizza!) in Buffalo. We went in between some paint jobs on the outside of the building, so we almost didn't see Fry Baby looking right at it.
  
  There's not much in-house seating, though that didn't stop my friend and I from setting up in the bar seat adjacent to the window after a 6 hour motorcycle ride to get there. The owner won't pressure you to buy anything, but if you walked in looking for a flavor they don't have that week, get something else instead. You won't be disappointed!
  
  For full context, my friend and I aren't even vegan, just sweets lovers who were riding motorcycles from Philly to Canada, and someone recommended this place the week before our trip. Even as non-vegans and residents of a bigger city, we thought the donuts were better than most donut places we have back home in Philly. And that vegan pizza? The bomb! Seems weird but just go for it. Bbq chicken is the flavor we both got, and we were 1000% stoked with it.
  
  I was heartbroken we couldn't take dozens of donuts with us both up to our destination and back to Philly on the way home.

  Stopped in this morning for a coworker who's vegan and raves about these. I got her donuts and one to try myself!
  
  I had a pumpkin one - honestly couldn't tell much of a difference between non vegan and this! I did think the "fry" flavor over took the donuts flavoring however, so I didn't get much pumpkin flavor. Not sure if that's for all kinds or this one. I would go back to test and try more, though!
  
  Just wish the counter person was friendlier. Very short and didn't seem like she wanted to be there... ‍

  Fry Baby has reopened with better hours and have really stepped up their breakfast pastry game. They've branched out from doughnuts to add pain au chocolat, cronuts, Danish, cruffins, and other flaky treats. The doughnut flavors change every week as do the flaky non-doughnut offerings whether they be croissant dough or puff pastry based.
  
  Check Instagram for their current offerings. If you get there right 8am, don't expect everything to be out yet, especially the non-doughnut items. However, they listened to the people and open before 10am, which is greatly appreciated.

  The upside of having a vegan brother in law is that when he visits we end up doing a vegan food tour of Buffalo. On his last visit, we hit up Fry Baby Donuts not once, but twice.
  
  Cute little place but it has very limited hours. The donuts are very good, but pricey. Being non-vegans we will stick to less expensive donut joints. Brother in law did say they are one of the top vegan donuts he has had.

  If it's your only option for enjoying donuts, then you can't wrong! Even if it's not, its worth checking them out at least one. I had the Peach-iced,  Chocolate-iced, and a Glazed donut. All were tasty! Donuts run $2 each.
