A new Krispy Kreme location is preparing to open in Snellville.

The popular doughnut franchise is moving into a building on Scenic Highway formerly occupied by Pollo Tropical, the city of Snellville announced Wednesday. The city issued a certificate of occupancy to the company this week.

Pollo Tropical closed all of its metro Atlanta locations in January 2019, including the Snellville restaurant. The space has stood empty for more than a year, but will now be filled with the smell of glazed doughnuts and coffee drinks.

There is no set open date for the new Krispy Kreme, but the city said it’s possible for them to start slinging doughnuts within six to eight weeks. The restaurant is located at 1635 Scenic Hwy S.
