Dining
Krispy Kreme operates around 380 US shops plus thousands of grocery and convenience-store cabinets, with the chain's Hot Light signaling fresh Original Glazed doughnuts coming off the line. Purchases at a Krispy Kreme storefront or drive-thru, including dozens ordered via the Krispy Kreme Rewards app, code as dining/restaurants. Cards with elevated dining bonuses earn at full rate: Amex Gold (4x Membership Rewards), Chase Sapphire Preferred (3x Ultimate Rewards), and Capital One SavorOne (3% unlimited cash back) are all strong picks.
