Donuts Delite was a Rochester monument. Groups of retirees gathered here to drink coffee and shoot the breeze. Crowds stopped by after church on Sundays. They were doing this since long before Starbucks. For years, people stood at the counter and smoked. It was perfectly European. There were many donut options in the city but their plain fried cakes ruled. It's still a beautiful piece of architecture but sadly no longer a coffee shop. The photo below was on their wall near the door.
