The shop has been a Scottsdale staple for colorful, cosmos-inspired donuts since 2018, and is owned and operated by a group of self-described “extraterrestrials,” who specialize not only in donuts, but also ice-cream, coffee, and those signature “Rocket Shakes.” 

And now, co-owner Tyler Peery — who also owns Dirty Dough Cookies in Tempe — is taking the Alien Donuts spaceship to college. The new location, at 1000 E Apache Boulevard, will be on the first floor of the RISE student apartments, and should be opening within the next few weeks. 

You should be able to find updates on their Instagram and Facebook pages.
