Rocket 88 Doughnuts closes

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — An Indianapolis-based doughnut shop with two locations in the city is closing.

Rocket 88 Doughnuts said on Facebook Tuesday it would shut down stores on Virginia Avenue in Fountain Square and College Avenue in SoBro.

“I want to personally thank all the wonderful customers and employees who have made the last couple years such a great experience. It’s been a crazy learning experience,” the owner wrote on Facebook.

The owner is opening a new business, Square Cat Vinyl, in Fountain Square.

Rocket 88 was known for specializing in vegan doughnuts.
