Same recipe. Your neighbors.

Fifty-plus years of mornings, one family recipe.

Wyman Dunlap Sr. opened the first Mary Lee on Florida Boulevard in 1969. Today, every store still uses the same doughnut mix — so a glazed in Ponchatoula tastes just like one in Mid City.

  • Doughnuts made fresh in-store every morning
  • Every location owned and run by a local family
  • Coffee, kolaches and doughnuts — breakfast handled in one stop
