    A must stop when doing some shopping at The Factory. Their donuts are so fancy. I like the original the best. Great treat to bring into the office.

    I heard a lot about the donuts over at Five Daughters and was excited to try it! When I came to this location around noon, I felt the line wasn't too bad, maybe 5 mins or so. I got their vanilla cream donut and loved how it tasted!

    We came because we've heard so much good things about this online, but it's a must to go to in Tennessee. They came to the factory and we're super excited that we saw this. The kids got a mini donut, chocolate chip cookie, and a snowball cookie everything was absolutely delicious. I highly recommend.

    Have been wanting to try one of their Paleo donuts since they're gluten-free. I got the salted caramel apple flavor and it was a nice treat with coffee. It's cake style. I prefer a yeasted gf donut, but this was good for Paleo. Service was quick & friendly and the shop is cute.

    If you see this in the Factory you are there!

    Amazing!! I snuck away this morning and treated myself to one of the best Donuts you will ever taste! This location is located in the Factory in Franklin. This is a local donut shop that started in Franklin. The flavors are amazing! Their donuts are like eating a cross between a donut and a croissant. What is crazy the donuts have 100 layers. Once you are there pick your pleasure! I got a Cinnamon Roll, Chocolate Sea Salt, Boston Cream and The Purist! ALL ARE AMAZING! If you ask them they will heat them up for you. Hint, heat them up, it takes them to a new level of Yummy! I'm a local so I take mine home and heat them up in the microwave. When you heat them up they ooze with Goodness! If you are visiting Franklin don't pass up this place! If you are a local what the heck are you waiting for!

    Great location in Franklin! I like how it is in the factory so you can take it and eat while you walk around. Great quick service. It does have a line on weekends but worth the wait.

    Absolutely adorable! The ladies working there were so sweet to us. The Vanilla Latte was just the right amount of sweet and the espresso was lovely. We ordered The Purist which was so rich but light at the same time. The set up of the Factory was a nice way to enjoy the bakery as it allowed us to enjoy our treats as we shopped the fabulous shops!

    The Factory at Franklin is a really neat venue to visit. Lots of different food options as well as gift and clothing vendors. But one place you need to stop in at for a sweet treat is Five Daughters Bakery. Their prices are a bit high but I think the quality and uniqueness of their items are worth the splurge. Service has always been friendly and efficient. The store front (which has moved from their original location) is pretty and a bit easier to maneuver through for ordering. There is no in store seating but there is plenty of seating in the food court.

    Super popular spot! The decor and vibe is cute and the service isn't bad! I wish the donuts were a bit warm because they have always been cold when I've gotten them. Overall the flavors are good but haven't blown me away! I'd love to see them express the flavors more so in the donuts rather than in the frosting because the frosting is super sweet so I tend to take a bit of it off but then don't get the flavor profile I should.

    Love the Factory location for grabbing 5 daughters donuts - the staff are always friendly & engaging, the ambiance is epic since it's all been renovated and usually a quick stop even if there is a line.

    Maple Glaze Doughnut
    Travis B.

    Maple Glaze Doughnut: Five Daughters Bakery is a family business in Franklin, Tennessee. The bakery is owned and operated by the Meek Family, which includes their five daughters. Their signature item is known as the 100 Layer Donut, which is a hybrid of a croissant and a donut (basically their version of a Cronut). 100 Layer Donuts take up to three days to make and once cooked, they're rolled in sugar, filled with cream, and topped with a heavenly glaze. Seven staple flavors are offered year-round along with limited time flavors that change from month to month. Unfortunately, I could not visit the bakery myself, but my parents were nice enough to bring me some doughnuts after visiting my brother in Nashville. The Maple Glaze Doughnut is rolled in sugar, infused with vanilla buttercream, and topped with maple glaze dusted with cinnamon. Taking my first bite I was immediately impressed by the thickness of the doughnut and how sweet the maple glaze was. Texturally, the outside of the doughnut is crisp and sweet while the interior is chewier. After my second bite, I encountered plenty of vanilla buttercream lurking inside the pastry. I'm a tough customer when it comes to doughnuts that are supposed to be "packed" with filling and are not (Stan's), but it's safe to say Five Daughters Bakery knows what they're doing. The vanilla butter cream is a little difficult to see in pictures because of the light color, but trust me, there's plenty of it. Their buttercream frosting was incredibly rich and reminded me almost of butter. It does balance out nicely with the super sweet maple flavor though. Doughboy approved. *Also, great customer service. I emailed them a question about nutritional information and not only did they provide me with it, but they also replied the same day (Thanks Ronnie Meek!). Unlike other businesses that sometimes take weeks to respond (The Cheesecake Factory). Doughboy_Food_Reviews

    This is my review for the bakery:…read more I really wanted to support this small bakery, but my experience left me feeling misled and taken advantage of. When I first visited, the owner, Steve Bledsoe, asked where we were from. After I said California, he told an employee to give us the "California discount." When the total came out to $40 per pie, I was shocked and asked why the price was so high. I was given a long explanation about premium ingredients and homemade quality. Feeling awkward and wanting to support a family-owned business, I went ahead and bought four pies. The next day, when I came back to pick them up, I noticed on the register that another customer had been charged $25 per pie. That was a big red flag. To double-check, I later called the shop as a new customer and was told pies are $25. When I asked to speak with the owner, his answers were inconsistent and unconvincing. I'm extremely disappointed. especially in a local business that relies on community trust. I left feeling like I was charged more simply because the owner thought he could get away with it. I will not be returning, and I hope the business reconsiders how it handles pricing and customer interactions. On top of the dishonesty. The pies were not great. I could have supported Costco and bought larger pies that tasted just as good, if not, better.
