Portland-based Voodoo Doughnut is opening its 17th store, and second in the Austin area, on Friday at 408 Burnet Road.
"We dig the city of Austin, having operated on 6th Street since 2015, it really feels like a second home to us," Chris Schultz, Voodoo Doughnut CEO, said in a company press release. "To open on historic Burnet Road and employ 70 more people from the community, it was an opportunity we couldn't pass up."
Having most recently opened in San Antonio, Texas in December 2022, the company has plans to open eight stores in 2023.
Voodoo's Burnet Road store will celebrate the funkiness of decades past with hand-painted art, teal-colored walls, a giant disco ball, custom wallpaper and a Spirit Channeler.
