Set your alarms a little earlier than usual Friday morning: National Donut Day has arrived once again.
Observed annually on the first Friday in June, the holiday traces its roots back to 1938, when The Salvation Army established the celebration to honor the "Doughnut Lassies" who served treats to soldiers during World War I. Today, it's become one of the sweetest food holidays of the year, with chains and local favorites alike offering free donuts and special promotions.
We've rounded up some of the best National Donut Day deals available in Southlake and around DFW.
