    HolyMoly Doughnuts Brings Fresh Breakfast and Community Spirit to Florissant

    Family-owned shop now open in Evergreen Station, Florissant

    There’s a new reason to get up early in Florissant. HolyMoly Doughnuts, a family-run breakfast spot, is now open at 8722 County Road 1 in Evergreen Station. They are serving up homemade doughnuts, breakfast bowls, and burritos with a warm welcome and a strong sense of community.

    This is not your average doughnut shop. HolyMoly is built on faith, family values, and the belief that good food can bring people together. The menu features yeast-risen doughnuts, buttermilk bars, apple fritters, sugar cookies, and hearty breakfast burritos and bowls to help you start your day right.

    “We’re here to start your day right, with a hearty breakfast and a healthy dose of community spirit,” says their website.

    Open from 4:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. every day except Wednesdays, HolyMoly is already becoming a local favorite. The food is homemade, the service is genuine, and the atmosphere is just what you want in a mountain-town breakfast stop.

    Whether you are swinging through Florissant or live nearby, HolyMoly Doughnuts is worth the visit. It is a place that serves more than food. It serves a little joy with every bite.

  • Sofia’s Antojitos Bringing Mexican Street Food to Woodland Park

    Sofia’s Antojitos Bringing Mexican Street Food to Woodland Park

    Pizzabirria, papas locas, and more are on the way to Teller County.

    Woodland Park is about to get a fresh dose of flavor. Sofia’s Antojitos, a popular Mexican street food spot with two highly rated locations in Colorado Springs, is expanding to Teller County with a brand-new restaurant set to open at 727 Gold Hill Place South, the former home of Mountainara Cucina.

    While the official opening date hasn’t been announced yet, but a liquor license has been issued, the remodel is progressing, and hiring is underway. Sofia’s is known for its bold, crave-worthy menu and its signature take on Mexican street fare. If you’ve never been, “Antojitos” translates roughly to little cravings, and the menu is full of exactly that.

    Expect a variety of tortas, flautas, elotes, papas locas (a loaded fries dish that lives up to the “crazy” name), and fan favorites like birria tacos and the now-legendary pizzabirria, a cross between a quesadilla, and pizza (with birria, of course).

    Both existing locations in Colorado Springs carry 4.6+ star ratings on Google, and locals swear by the food. This new Woodland Park location marks the restaurant’s first move above 8000 feet, and it’s already generating buzz from locals eager to try something new in town.

    Sofia’s is currently hiring, though no wage info has been shared publicly yet. Whether you’re looking for a job or just a plate of papas locas, it’s a spot worth keeping an eye on.

    We’ll share opening details as soon as they’re available.
