FunkyTown Donuts & Drafts — Fort Worth’s Original Gourmet Donut Shop Pairing Handcrafted, Scratch-Made Donuts with Local Craft Beer Steps from Sundance Square
If you’re looking for a one-of-a-kind sweet stop in downtown Fort Worth, FunkyTown Donuts & Drafts on East 4th Street is exactly the kind of place that makes this city fun. FunkyTown was the first gourmet donut shop in Fort Worth, opening its doors in May 2016, and has since become a beloved staple just steps from Sundance Square and Bass Hall. This family-owned bakery is dedicated to making handcrafted donuts and providing outstanding customer service, putting a funky twist on the traditional doughnut with quality ingredients and as much made from scratch as possible. Rated 4.3 stars on Google, it draws everyone from tourists exploring Sundance Square to locals who make it a regular weekend ritual.
Each handcrafted donut is made from scratch with high-quality ingredients and a funky twist of flavor and design, with a rotating weekly menu that keeps things fresh and exciting on every visit. Flavors range from classic chocolate-covered and sprinkled donuts to more unique offerings like the fruity pebble donut and bacon maple donut, with the donuts consistently fresh even during busy midday hours. Standouts include the plain glazed — a surprisingly addictive take on a classic — the Main Squeeze cake donut, strawberry shortcake, and the absolutely delicious apple fritters. Gluten-free options are available on Wednesdays and Sundays, and vegan donuts round out an inclusive menu that leaves no one out. Custom orders, catering for weddings and large events, and donut bars are all available with advance notice.
What sets FunkyTown apart from every other donut shop in Fort Worth is the drafts half of the equation. Guests can pair their favorite donut with a local craft beer on tap, and Fort Worth’s open container policy means you can take your donut and drink out onto the streets of downtown — a detail that makes a morning visit feel like a genuine event. FunkyTown Donuts & Drafts is located at 132 E 4th St, Fort Worth, TX 76102, and is open Tuesday through Friday 7am–3pm, Saturday 7am–10pm, and Sunday 7am–3pm, closed Mondays. Curbside pickup and local delivery with a $25 minimum are both available.
