Vincent Van Doughnut to open in The Grove

Doughnut lovers rejoice! The new location of Vincent Van Doughnut at 1072 Tower Grove Ave., will be open for business on Valentine’s Day, bright and early at 6 a.m.

As The Scoop reported in February, the new store will initially have the same hours as the Clayton location: Tuesday through Friday from 6 a.m. until sold out, and Saturday and Sunday from 7 a.m. until sold out. Owner Vincent Brian Marsden said he’s considering adding later hours on Thursday, Friday and Saturday down the line, given the active nightlife in The Grove – possibly with an evening menu of fry-to-order doughnuts.

Marsden said the core of the Tower Grove menu will remain the same as the Clayton location, though there will be some additional items, such as ice cream from local purveyor Ronnie’s Ice Cream. The location has 16 seats, and Marsden is looking into outdoor seating as well.
