Barefruit Introduces Arlington to Croughnuts
Everybody knows doughnuts, but what exactly is a croughnut? A new Arlington, Tennessee cafe called Barefruit Cafe can show you better than they can tell you. But basically, as the name suggests, a croughnut is a cross between a croissant and a doughnut. They are sweet like doughnuts, and have all kinds of delicious icings and toppings like doughnuts, but they are also flaky like croissants, and somewhat lighter and more airy than regular doughnuts. They’re delicious, and worth the drive out from Memphis, but those who want to do it should be aware that Barefruit is only open from 7 AM to 4 PM Wednesday through Friday, and 8 AM to 4 PM on Saturdays. In addition to the croughnuts, Barefruit functions also as a locally-owned coffee bar in Arlington, and with the closure of Crave Coffee Bar, they are in fact the only such option in town. The coffee is just as good as the baked goods.
