The iconic VooDoo Doughnut has flung open its latest doors at 7101 Melrose Avenue, gracing the Los Angeles food scene with a fresh outpost. In a grand opening affair on Tuesday, CEO Chris Schultz enthusiastically inaugurated the new location amid the fanfare, as reported by KTLA. "We're so excited to be here at the corner of Melrose and La Brea, right? The first VooDoo Doughnut here in L.A.," Schultz said.

Doughnut aficionados can indulge in a variety of 51 flavors, among which 20 are vegan, ensuring a taste to satisfy every palate and preference. Having established a presence at Universal CityWalk since 2018, the Portland-based chain's expansion into the vibrant locale of Melrose Avenue marks a continued commitment to spreading its doughnut dominion across L.A.

Adding a charitable twist to the festivities, VooDoo Doughnut announced a community-driven initiative through their social media. "Partial proceeds of today’s grand opening sales and of the LA Heart doughnut will benefit @lafdfoundation... enjoy the LA Heart doughnut from 4/1 - 4/30!" exclaimed the company in a recent X post. The month-long campaign will support the Los Angeles Firefighters Foundation, a gesture illustrating the company's engagement with local charitable causes.

The shop stays open from 6:00 a.m. to 3:00 a.m., providing ample time for residents and night owls to get their doughnut fix.
