Xavier University welcomed students back to school this week with new offerings at
University Station, the mixed-use development at Dana Avenue and Montgomery Road that features a 180-unit apartment complex as well as 46,000 square feet of office space and 39,000 square feet for retail.
The $54-million development boasts a larger campus bookstore, Graeter’s, Starbucks, Gold Star Chili and now a new donut shop.
Top This Donut Bar opened on Aug. 16 and, much like frozen yogurt shops, offers customers the chance to customize their donut. The shop’s cake donuts are made on-site in a variety of flavors, but donuts aren’t the only thing you can top.
Customers can choose a donut, cinnamon roll or crispy rice treat as a vessel for the toppings of their choice. Toppings range from the typical (candy pieces, chocolate chips and coconut) to the more inventive, like Andes mints, bacon, Fruity Pebbles, peppermints and fresh fruit. There’s also a variety of icing flavors to pick from, including caramel, chocolate, pink and white.
Top This also serves the perfect accompaniment to donuts, with coffee or cold milk on tap.
There are plans to open three more Top This locations in Anderson Township, West Chester and Northern Kentucky later this year.
