Drip N Dough is aiming for a Dec. 2 launch at 1433 Bardstown Rd. in the Highlands/Cherokee Triangle, with a daily roster of coffee, doughnuts and hot dogs. Drip N Dough’s owners are Frazier Long, Zach Levine, Kyle Fischer and Logan Mead.
If this menu sounds familiar, the new shop’s short-lived predecessor Mango Tango also pursued a similar strategy (it offered smoothies, not coffee), suggesting that while a market for this approach exists, Mango Tango simply wasn’t able to serve it.

New doughnut shop coming to Highlands
“We’ve been trying to update as much as we can,” Logan added. “We’ll have some seating in here. We redid the counter. We redid the entire inside, paint wise, which took a considerable amount of time from all of us. We got some local artists to do our murals inside. Outside, our signage has been redone by that same artist.”
Levine said the partners were attracted to the Highlands location because of the foot traffic and the fact that there are no doughnut shops nearby. The nearest competition to Drip N Dough, the Krispy Kreme location at 3000 Bardstown Road, is undergoing $300,000 in repairs and renovations after being set on fire earlier this year.
