At some small town bakeries, you walk in get your donut and leave. The Kimball Bakery in Kimball, Nebraska is different. They have tables, inviting their guest to sit, stay, enjoy your donut for a while. I really enjoyed this idea, then I didn’t have to worry about making a mess while trying to eat my donut in the car.
The Kimball Bakery opened in 1941 and is currently owned by Kimball native, Bob Hinton. The day starts early with donuts being made at 2am. All donuts are made from scratch which made them taste much better than other bakeries.
Not only does the bakery make donuts, they also make fresh hamburger and hot dog buns as well. The day before 4th of July, owner Bon Hinton said he made about 1,400 fresh buns. I was able to enjoy the fresh taste of one and I recommend eating them with a sloppy joe.
Make sure and stop by the Kimball Bakery when you are traveling in Western Nebraska. I can’t wait to go back and have another zombie donut.
