Wichita’ Most Liked Donuts

It’s been two years since we last had a Wichita’s Most Liked Donut tournament, but since that time the original winner, The Donut Whole, closed down.

That means we must crown a new champion. Over that time, a few more donut options have come in, but many have also closed.

Voting will take place on our Facebook page and newsletter and things kick off right here!
