While it may not look like much on the outside, the Donut Shop is known its amazing fare, even being referred to as "one of Natchez’s best kept secrets." And that fare not only includes out-of-this-world donuts, but made-from-scratch tamales and mouthwatering burgers as well.


The name Tato-Nut is a combination of the words "potato" and "donut," which may seem strange, that is, until you learn that this Ocean Springs favorite is famous for their donuts made from potato dough. The Tato-Nut Shop is so proud of its signature dough, in fact, that the eatery has coined itself as home of "the only real donut."


Serving the D’Iberville area, Carmelita’s Donuts and Such is the place to stop for made-from-scratch donuts and pastries, which include everything from classic glazed donuts and Bear Claws to their signature Maple Bacon Danish and old-fashioned cake donuts.

Sure the donuts at this Petal eatery are amazing, but as the name suggests, it offers much more than just your average donut.
