Free coffee and a Krispy Kreme doughnut this National Coffee Day

There are few things more comforting than a hot cup of coffee and a fresh doughnut.

This year, National Coffee Day is coming with a little extra fun, courtesy of Krispy Kreme and Joe Jonas.

The pop star, known for his love of doughnuts, has teamed up with the brand to deliver a treat you won’t want to miss.


On September 29, participating shops will be giving away both a free coffee and a free doughnut, no purchase required.

For seniors looking for a simple, feel-good outing, this deal might be just the right excuse to stop by.

Joe Jonas joins the fun

In a lighthearted video shared on social media, Jonas joked with the Krispy Kreme team that “you can’t have coffee without a doughnut.”

Fans seemed to agree—and the result is a one-day offer of a free medium hot or iced coffee along with any doughnut of your choice.

All you have to do is walk in or use the drive-thru.

No coupon or app required—just enjoy!
