What a concept! If I sat in here I'd be feeling good popping shots and eating these donuts by the dozen lol. We only got donuts to go, got one of each to try. Six of them didn't make it out the parking lot. They are delicious and I will definitely be back!

Fun, casual spot that has something for whatever vibe you're craving. NA Coffee flights/ boozy coffee flights / whiskey flights - they'll match the donuts to whatever energy you bring for drinks. Some donuts were a lot better than others in my opinion, the boston creme pie was the very best. The sweet swine didn't have enough maple for me and I kind of wish it had been smaller chunks of freshly cooked bacon - but either way we had a great time here. The NA coffee flight was yummy - not for the coffee snob type but overall the coffee paired well with the donuts and the flight board was so cute.

It was a family road trip to Tennessee and before heading into the core of downtown, we made a pit stop for donuts! So glad we gave Distillery a shot. We got the minis and enjoyed some incredible flavors. Service was fast and the vibe was friendly. Loved this place!

So I love the idea, seems like a great place to vibe. However the cashier that was working that day definitely didn't give the energy that she wanted to be there. Very dry, couldn't recommend anything and didn't have much to say when came to my questions about the menu options. I did like that you can literally pick one of each flavor. So here we go. 1. Strawberry Lemonade- literally tasted like lemon was zested on top was definitely a sweet and sour mix. 3/10 2. Reese's - tasted like a old Reese cup was used 2/10 3. Whiskey glaze- didn't taste whiskey at all! 2/10 4. Sweet Swine - go for it!! Enjoyed that little thing 9/10 5. Death by chocolate- if you like chocolate you will enjoy . 8/10 6. Cinnamon Toast Crunch- no crunch just cinnamon, and I was okay with that! 7/10 Overall I'm glad I was able to try multiple flavors and wouldn't mind coming back. But maybe next time I'll have a drink instead

Just a fun idea! Loved the donut and coffee flight (very sweet but a great treat!) and the staff was friendly. Donuts had fun flavors and seemed fresh. They had a fun picture wall and comfy seating. A fun weekend stop!

Fruity Pebbles and Whiskey

Date of visit: March 14, 2025 This was the meeting spot for our East Nashville Secrets Food Tour but we also needed something small as we reached the Distillery a bit early and decided to try a couple of donuts. When I told staff the reason for our visit, they told me exactly which ones we were going to get on the tour which allowed us to get some other ones, which I appreciated! All around staff were friendly and helpful. We went with the Reese's Peanut Butter, the Strawberry Lemonade, and the Homer D'ohnut. I loved both the Reese's and the Strawberry; the Reese's was served with a warm peanut butter drizzle, which frankly, all donuts should be served with! The Strawberry Lemonade had a surprisingly tasty zing of tartness that I wasn't expecting but I also did not dislike. My husband had the Homer and was a bit underwhelmed by the taste. When the tour started, we received a Fruity Pebbles and a Whiskey donut. We both thought the FP was outstanding but didn't love the Whiskey, not so much because of the taste but that the donut was..well, wet. And that was a bit off-putting to both of us. Next time I am in Nashville I would definitely consider coming to DD again and trying more donuts or some of their fun coffee drinks!

Homer, Boston Crème, S'mores

Such a cute place and must visit if in the area. The donuts are bite sized, perfectly fluffy and definitely fuels a good sugar rush. Can't wait to try more flavors next time!

We stopped by the Donut Distillery after hanging out in downtown one weekend. Who can say no to donuts? Such a great vibe and location. Loved the atmosphere and both donuts we got were incredible.

I had higher expectations for this donut place, but as long as your expectations are realistic, it'll be an enjoyable experience. We didn't realize they were only mini donuts, no full sized options. Pros: - the donuts tasted delicious - their coffee was yummy, with some fun flavors - they have mimosas/beer to pair with your donuts, making it a very unique location - staff were friendly and enthusiastic - decorations were cute for the holidays Cons: - the donuts are extremely small. You get two bites per donut, which is enough to taste. Definitely wouldn't recommend if you are truly hungry. - it's $1 per donut, making it fairly expensive for what you get. - our table lost two screws while we were sitting there and the table nearly collapsed on us. Luckily the people next to us were leaving and we were able to move down. Overall, I'd recommend this place for someone looking for a little snack, or if they're in the area and are looking for some good coffee.

Non alcoholic coffee flights
Steph H.

I wonder if they are busier on the weekends... we came on a Friday about noon and got the non-alcoholic coffee flights. The donuts were pretty good. I anticipated not liking rocky road per my flavor preference and I was correct, lol, but the rest were yummy. The chai tea latte was actually our favorite drink. The building/area looks pretty run down and we weren't really greeted warmly or friendly. Just overall "ok". I wouldn't go out of my way to come again, but it wasn't a bad experience by any means.

Mini Donuts
Mariana Q.

The Mini Donuts were delicious, but I was bothered because when I ordered them, they served me the wrong donut (with bacon) and I do not eat pork for religious reasons. I asked for them to change the donut out and they removed it, but there was still bacon in the box so I had to remove the donuts touching it.

Box of mini 25 Pack of Donuts
Jeff D.

Wow, the assortment of flavors are amazing! Love the small bite size donuts so you can get several to try!

Mary A.

A first stop on our food tour. We were given two donuts that were incredible and a mimosa. We loved the setting and the food. We look forward to coming back on our next visit to Nashville and try a full sampler. Definitely worth a visit to this unique venue.

Tiny mini donuts. But a ton of flavor, each packs a wallop. And if that's not enough, they've got alcohol to help.

Wow these doughnuts are to die for! Omg they are so dense, fresh and full of flavor. I didn't know…read morewhat the hype was about but now I do...wished I would have brought some home to share. Service was quick, staff were friendly and helpful with making decisions of which 2 I wanted to try.

I want to love them all... BUT I can say the Purist and Vanilla Cream were so good. The donuts are…read morea mix between a cronut and a donut but kinda ride somewhere in between. They don't have the flake of a croissant or the light airy vibe of a yeast donut. I also tried the Strawberry Fields, Milk Chocolate, Blueberry Lemon and the Chocolate Sea Salt. The Blueberry Lemon was good the first day, but it seemed that the donuts don't hold up beyond fresh. I feel that may have changed my opinion on some of the other flavors. However, the vanilla crème was good the next day. I conclude they are not my favorite and I would probably stop in for something special to get the Purist or the Vanilla Crème. It was definitely an experience. I'm glad I tried them. However, I think I'm super spoiled by my pastry shoppes in the city and my favorite Amish bakers on the Shore. The shoppe was cute and the service was fine. No complaints. It's nice to know they have an ingredient list to check, I appreciated that. I'd say give them a try because I definitely think it's a preference because the locals raved.

Was visiting from out of town and decided to try out Honey Fire Barbeque! The food hall is large…read morewith lots of choices. It was a busy Saturday but we were able to find seating. It's the most varied food hall I've ever been into with so many great option. We got pulled pork bbq plate with Mac/cheese and apples. Two brisket sandwiches with Mac/chesse and green beans. All meats were perfect and the greens beans had a nice flare as the meat in the beans were brisket. The Mac/cheese was just okay. Needed more seasoning and the Mac/cheese was a little runny. Overall great experience!

In the couple days I have been here, I have eaten here twice. Once yesterday for a late lunch...I…read morewent to get a Philly Cheesesteak and got a meal, it was a busy Sunday afternoon but I found a seat over by the state and there was a woman playing the guitar and singing which was unexpected for me, since I've never been here to Nashville before. The cheesesteak meal was good. I got the crinkle cut fries, an extra side of whiz, and a diet Dr Pepper. The cheesesteak was delicious, but if you're hungry I'd choose to get double meat. The bread has a nice chewy exterior, and the meat, cheese and grilled onions were excellent. Sat and watched Tory Grace sing a unique version of Free Fallin (Tom Petty). Really enjoyable. My boss flew in from Finland last night, and my two colleagues came in from ATL and Milwaukee today. So we walked back here for lunch. I decided to go to Steam Boys. Kathy was manning the front of the house today, so I looked over the menu and decided to order one beef bao, a bottle of Coke Zero, and the dry zha jang noodles. Big portions! Cucumbers, cilantro, got a medium spice, the noodles were overdone but with the sauce and amount of meat it was not the end of my world. Kathy helped me get situated with the food. I found a table on the bridge in between food halls. I ate almost the entire bowl, but stopped. The bao was simply perfect. Great texture, chewy but held up to the meat and sauce. Great place to go if you have many people with you, and nobody wants to choose one cuisine. Support the people working hard here!
