Saveur magazine has named Bill’s Donut Shop at 268 N. Main St. in Centerville one of the “50 Finest Donut Shops in America.”

Bill’s Donuts was the only doughnut shop in Ohio to be included in the magazine’s story entitled “The World’s Best Donuts: The 50 Finest Donut Shops in America,” in the foodie magazine’s March 2013 issue. The print version of the magazine is being distributed now.

Saveur’s story had this to say about Bill’s: “This low-slung, swivel-stooled favorite makes a twisted and glazed pretzel donut that packs maximum cake satisfaction.”

Bill’s Donut Shop was founded in 1960 in downtown Dayton, and moved to Centerville in 1967. In the 1970s, there were several Bill’s locations in the Dayton area, including Vandalia, Kettering and Huber Heights, according to the Bill’s Donut Shop web site. The shop moved to its current location on Ohio 48 just north of downtown Centerville in 1979.
