Five Daughters Bakery is the gift that keeps on giving! Not only are there new flavors always being offered but they keep the original purist, which is the traditional glaze. Don't get me wrong, these donuts aren't your every day donuts! Five Daughters is infamous for their 100 layer donut. A new spin on the cronut but without GMO's, no bleached flour and all natural ingredients. When friends come in town, I always take them here. They scoff at the price for 1 donut until they take their first bite then they head back to the line to order more! I recommend purist bites, if they're not sold out, any of their chocolate choices like sea salt and then something colorful and sweet-there is a lot to choose from! Try to use restraint...I dare you! Here is where the genius comes in-on any given day, when laziness takes over and you need inspiration to get out of bed, you can look at their donut cameras on their website to see what flavors they have left! Yes! They have a camera on their display case! I guarantee seeing something deliciously glazed will get you out of bed! read more

Amazing Donuts! Ordered a triple berry and really enjoyed it. My sister had the caramel. You are crazy if you don't stop here if you have a chance. It is worth the wait. I will let the pictures speak for themselves :) (coffee is from Honest Roasters Coffee (HRC)) where I actually set up camp to eat. read more

Stopped into the Franklin location Friday morning on our way home. My wife loves the 100 layer doughnuts they are known for and she has to get a few to bring back to her teacher friends at school. There's not many places she would do that for so it must be a special place to go. We find a bakery every time we come to Nashville. read more

What more can I say that hasn't already been said about Five Daughters - it is simply the best! The donuts are not-your-average donut: so flaky, so many layers, so many flavors. They even have breakfast sandwiches and other menu items for non-donut lovers. During this particular visit, I went for one of their Valentine's-themed donuts and a birthday cake donut. The Valentine's donut was sweet and fresh. The birthday cake donut blew my mind - the buttercream frosting wasn't overly sweet, but had the perfect mixture of sweet and salty flavors to accompany the flaky donut itself. Yes, the price of each donut is a little high compared to other donut shops, but I firmly believe that the price is worth it! read more

This location is in a little indoor renovated warehouse type building. It's a small little space for their bakery though but not hard to find. With white subway tiles and donuts on display, this place is cute! The donuts are thick and you could probably only eat one by yourself at one go, causing me to question how many calories I consumed. I will commend the fact that they have paleo options, vegan (I think), and cookies ( some of which are gluten free). There was already a line to the door when I got here with my family around 11:30 ish but the line went fast. My family and I got the cranberry pear donut, a Mexican hot chocolate one, maple donut, and a gingerbread donut. We also got two cookies: chocolate chip and a chocolate cookie with confectioners sugar sprinkled over it. It was all very good and flavorful! The flavor ideas are great and worthy of another trip. The Mexican hot chocolate was absolutely perfect with cayenne on top, you could taste the heat in just one bite. The marshmallow sauce on it complimented it quite nicely. The gingerbread donut may have been vegan and tasted a little lacking, though it had a slight heaviness to it. I love the cranberry pear! Interesting and fun! The cookies were good though nothing special. I will say the price point won't have me coming back too often. $4.50 per donut seemed like a lot. Maybe the ingredients or the high standard of living in Nashville reflected this but it seemed like too much. I'll come back but probably not all the time. But this is something to check out when you're nearby! Not sure how busy their other locations get but coming to the one in Franklin is a nice alternative instead of driving into town. read more

MY GOODNESS this is heaven on earth!! You can hear all the angels rejoicing! STAFF: It's really so busy especially on the weekend that there's not really any time for chit chatting, but that's okay. SELECTION: You have to get there early if you want more options!! As the day goes the section dwindles. MY PICK: I don't like the super sweet ones so a cheesecake type filling is my preference. Currently the Pumpkin Chocolate Cheesecake is my jam. I've been two weekends in a row bc I can't get enough of it!! CAMERA:!! I heard all the locations have a cam or something online so you can what they have before you make the trek over - this is brilliant!!!! TIP: Don't forget to grab napkins! It's messy!! Aren't the best things to eat always messy though? The messier the better! I saw they also offer salads I believe which is a nice and healthy counter-option! I'm sure they are good also as this place doesn't disappoint!! The Factory is slamming busy on the weekends and especially Saturdays when the market is going on so parking can be a bear. Just know that going into the experience. Also I'm 90% sure they are closed on Sundays. Plan ahead!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND read more

Awesome donuts. Eat them fresh. I took two to home and next day they weren't with the same texture.

The pastries may taste good, but at $5 a doughnut, it ain't worth it to me... I don't care if it was trimmed in gold, which I couldn't eat... Point is, way too much for me to enjoy... I wanted to upchuck at every bite, just thinking of the price I just spent on "dough!" read more

I had one once after all the hype. The bacon one. I love bacon...it's a treat. I can't have it every week. Not much flavor for the costs of all the carbs and fat. Service is meh...you can tell she hates her job. Ambiance, there is none to speak of. read more

So.. I am a sweets coni sour... well, self proclaimed anyway. :) I am all about me some Krispy Kreme doughnuts like most folks.. Let me tell ya though, these things are sinful! (In a great way!) Uhmazing .. Maple Bacon is my poison and I will fight ya for it! A little pricey but hey, we all have to splurge every now and then. Be sure to try them sometime. What a a nice treat. read more

Honestly, I feel these are slightly overrated. Maybe it's just that I'm from NY and we have things like this already. We tried the bacon and the cinnamon cream cheese cronuts. They were ok... very sweet and dense. I was expecting to be dying over it and it just wasn't that amazing. I was most disappointed by the chocolate frosted donut. The donut itself was good but the chocolate had zero flavor. I've never had flavorless chocolate before in my life. The best thing we had was the simple , purist glazed donut. That was great! read more

Came here with my son as part of a mommy and son date day. They had a great variety to pick from which was great. The donuts are VERY sweet so I had a tummy ache as I'm not used to eating things that sweet. The vanilla latte was very delicious but it was Luke warm right after being made. I like my drinks on the hotter side but it was still delicious. read more

Fantastic service in a great setting. Tasty treats but...they are just a C+...almost every item is cream filled, solid ingredients no doubt just not as tasty as they look. This is a must try for yourself though because you may absolutely love them. read more

This was actually a neat place in the Factory. Friendly staff! To be honest, the donuts are an acquired taste. It is an interesting take on the donut, and i do love creativity. I got the maple quinnamon? Probably misspelling that. It was pretty good. One of my daughters got a plain donut and didn't like it. I was glad to see paleo donut options since my other daughter has to eat gluten free. She got a couple of those to try, but she didn't like either of them. It was a strikeout for us, but judging by the line out the door, it's a big hit locally. read more

I've been to their first location and decide to try this one. The service was not friendly. Didn't feel like my business was wanted.

Best cronuts we've ever had! We tried a combination of different things available - the summer berry was such a complex flavor profile. A must stop in Franklin! read more

The cronuts are phenomenal !! Was gifted some by a student and now one of my favorite desserts !

Went to Five Daughters in Franklin... the best doughnuts ever!! I think we ordered 1 of each flavor, and my favorite was the maple! But they were all delicious- if you haven't tried these doughnuts what are you waiting for?? Get some read more

Delectable donuts that are flaky and beyond flavorful. Loved their seasonal donuts & their orange Quinn.

This is a cute, little quaint spot in downtown Franklin. It's like a little cottage for tea and bakery items. It's cutely decorated, and they offer a variety of teas/coffees and lots of sweet goodies. The staff is always friendly and quick to give you the order. This is the perfect spot for a little get-together with a friend or relative. However......the desserts are just not that great. I've ordered about 6 things now, trying different things. I have just not really enjoyed any of them, minus the almond croissant (which is lovely). We tried the gluten-free cupcake, which the cake part was surprisingly good, BUT the frosting tasted like plain Crisco with no sugar or sweetness at all. I'm HOPING this was a mistake and not the typical frosting. Frosting is gluten-free in nature, so it doesn't need to taste like a spoonful of crisco. While we were happy they offer a GF option, this was really gross. We have also tried the PB bomb, muffins, and macrons. The same thing with the macrons, they tasted odd and not very sweet. I would love to see them update their outdoor space because this could be a darling little spot to sit outside and sip a spot of tea, but now it's a little run-down outside. However, there are some really good things about this place, like the indoor atmosphere, the good coffee/tea, the precious little china tea cups, and the friendly service. read more

Amazing treats. Pricey for sure but definitely memorable and very unique. I guess it's best that it's not all that cheap because I'd be there several times a week! read more

This shop is in Liberty Hall, which itself is a super cool mix of independent and unique shops. Five Sisters gots that mold and if you peruse the pictures, you can see how special their donuts are. My crew of five were all sold on the same choice, Smores, which is their most popular choice and best seller. It was decadent, rich and had an amazing graham cracker cream in the center that elevated the flavor to new heights. Why not five stars, well it is just a bit pricey but you will OT be disappointed in the flavors. Now I am not saying they should equal a Krispy Kreme dozen at $7.99, but five donuts for $20 may be on my special occasion only budget. read more

Great donuts and broad selection! Worth visiting again and again. Sadly I didn't get the message that they have the same ones each day! But it turned out that is the BEST THING! read more

My hubby said the regular donuts were delicious. The gluten free donuts were like tasteless door stops. If you are GF, just don't do it.

This is not your ordinary donut, I would highly recommend! Always buy in two's because one is NEVER enough!

Happened upon Five Daughters Bakery while perusing the shops at The Factory and the adjacent Farmers Market. We came from California to visit friends in Eaglesville. We missed 5DB in Nashville but lucked out to find their adorable pop up shop in The Factory, in Franklin, Their donuts are a spectacular marriage of fluffy pastry and sugary delight. What a splendid way to welcome the day with this level of mouthwatering bliss. We tried the Huckleberry Chestnut and The Purist. Both were sinful; the purist was preferred. read more

Okay...everybody sing along, "To all the sweets I loved before; I now have found baked treats galore. Their Cronuts are so fine, my belt is sure to bind, and so I must undo it more....(apologies to Willy Nelson) Alas, indeed, I have found another "undoing" of my voluntary dietary and physiologic vestment restraints. This clash of calories and conscience comes in the guise of Five Daughters Bakery and their croissant-donut crossover "Hundred Layer Donut." We had members of our family visiting from out of town and took them to The Factory for an impromptu visit and tour. Knowing that one adult member of our clan has an insatiable sweet tooth--especially for donuts, we restrained him slightly, and briefly walked through Five Daughters, promising to come back to sample their artfully crafted fare. After wandering the halls of the "mall," we returned to Five Daughters and bought two cronuts, a "King-Kong" (Maple/Bacon) and a Boston Creme. Splitting the King-Kong Maple/Bacon 7 ways was fairly easy. It's pillowy-soft center topped with crispy pieces of bacon split amicably for all to share. On the other hand, the über soft and chewy (in the best possible way) Boston Creme was a little more of a challenge, its overstuffed sweet, ooey gooey center finally, albeit reluctantly, gave way to our efforts. At last, we stepped up to the task at hand and sampled both of these delectable, decidedly decadent, kicked-up-a-notch, multi-day in the preparation, hundred-layer donuts. Simply Irresistible! On on impulse, we decided to hold an impromptu picnic in the comfy chairs of the center gathering area of The Factory and sent scouts out to other sections of this "indoor mini-mall" to retrieve other goodies to share. We also returned to Five Daughters to refill our improvised basket, this time with repeats of the first two, as well as a sweet and creamy-topped Cookies and Cream, a Lemon-Curd filled Raspberry-iced gem, and an everything but the kitchen sink "Somebody's Mama's" Cookie lumpily loaded with chunks of fruit and chocolate chips..."yum-a-licious." Every bite was a delight, and every flavor a joy to savor. On the down side...the cake donuts (which we did not try) looked a bit dry and unappetizing. But the Hundred Layer Donuts are well worth every penny they charge and a repeat visit...just as soon as I can get back into this belt. read more

If you like big and fancy doughnuts then this is the place for you. Good place to pop in on a Saturday at the Farmers Market.

Homer Simpson hasn't had a donut, until he's had a Five Daughters donut. My friend James and I were in Nashville, at The Factory and James said we must get these donuts. We each chose a donut and then split them. I chose the chocolate and sea salt and he chose the vanilla cream. The vanilla donut had a cream cheese center and the chocolate had an almost chocolate mousse feel. Both donuts were delicious and should not be missed. You can also gaze through the window next store and watch them make these delectable delights. read more
