<p>&#8220;Cedar Point will be our first restaurant located at an amusement park, a market that we believe holds great potential for Famous Dave&#8217;s,&#8221; said David Goronkin, CEO of Famous Dave&#8217;s. &#8220;We look forward to being a part of the magnificent Cedar Point and it will be a privilege for Famous Dave&#8217;s to serve Cedar Point&#8217;s guests.&#8221;</p>

<p>Early risers who can&#8217;t wait to ride some of the tallest and fastest roller coasters in the world won&#8217;t have to conquer them on an empty stomach anymore. Cedar Point will offer guests freshly made donuts, giant cinnamon rolls, muffins, cookies, specialty breads as well as juices, milk, fresh-brewed coffee and more in its new Donut Time quick service restaurant.
