John and Judy Dimos, two regulars at Mary Ann Donuts, didn’t let the slick roads keep them from the pastry shop’s opening at its new location today.

The North Canton couple ate inside Mary Ann Donuts, now at 1664 N. Main St., about 11:30 a.m. today.

“I think it’ll be better for them because they’re in a shopping center-type area,” “Judy said.

John, who said he’s been coming to Mary Ann Donuts locations for 20 years, said the new location is “100 percent better” than the old spot at 1105 N. Main St.

The previous location required drive-through customers to make a U-turn to face the right way going through the drive-through.

“It was a pain,” he said.

It had carpeting and blue walls, while the new location offers lots of light and sticks to a strong red, white and blue theme.

Customers also have their choice of tables or coffee-bar seating.

Danielle Brickwood, marketing manager for Mary Ann Donuts’ five Stark County locations, said the business soon will have more decorations on its now-stark walls. The bright primary colors and lots of white paint seem to be a hit, though, she said.

“Between the coffee and the decor, you’re definitely not going to be sleeping.”

She and other workers weren’t deterred by the icy weather today. They said business still was steady for a Tuesday.

“I will say we’ve seen a lot of new faces, which is positive,” Brickwood said.
