Back Door Donuts

A Legacy of Deliciousness and Community

Back Door Donuts boasts a rich history in the charming town of Oak Bluffs, Massachusetts. Founded in 1948, the bakery has evolved over the decades, yet its dedication to providing delicious treats and fostering community has remained constant.

Generations of Sweetness

From its humble beginnings as Walmsley's Bakery, Back Door Donuts has become a beloved local institution. In 1971, the White family took the helm, instilling a tradition of "Back-Door" sales, where passionate customers could indulge in fresh pastries at any hour. This personalized service became a hallmark of the bakery.

In 2001, Rita Brown and Janice Casey carried on the legacy, renaming the establishment Martha's Vineyard Gourmet Cafe & Bakery. They maintained the tradition of overnight baking, creating mouthwatering treats for early risers and late-night cravings.
