Donut

Confession: I'm not a donut fan. I'm more of a 'coffee and something savory' kind of person. So when I bit into their famous 100-layer donut, my taste buds basically filed a complaint with HR. It was like eating a croissant that went on spring break and never came back. But judging by the blissful faces of the true donut disciples around me, this place is their holy land. Too sweet for me, but apparently just sweet enough for the cult of the cronut.

Inside this building

For starters the address on here is wrong, its not 3814 its 3820 and its inside the big brick building. This isnt a regualr donut shop. They sell cronuts and they had a bunch of gluten free donuts if your into that. I got the vanilla cronut and the vietnamese coffee. Both were tasty but they should change the name of "Vietnamese coffee". Vietnamese coffee is very very strong/bold coffee because they brew coffee with coffee. But this donut had a mild coffee flavoring. Plus definitely not worth $11.52 for 2 donuts.

Nice bakery with good customer service. I will definitely return. Had the sugar cookie which was soft and flavorful. We also got the Boston Bremen pie donut and a vanilla pastry. This location is in a shared shopping area with other stores. There is parking it it's only for 15 minutes so you can't stay long and walk around. Hope you enjoy your treats. I did!

Yeast Raised - Apple Fritter, Quinnamon - Maple
Annie W.

Took these home and warmed them up before eating. The maple quinnamon is a fun play on the traditional cinnamon role but it's nothing special. A yummy but pricey treat. I'll come back another time to try the 100 layer donuts.

The Purist
Sarah ..

Love, love, love their donuts! My personal favorite is the Purist. It is simply delicious and perfect. I love shopping at the L&L market and grabbing a mini or two--okay, fine, three--as a sweet treat!

I've been to 5 different locations between Nashville and Atlanta. I will always support Five Daughters, they consistently are my absolute favorite donuts

Delicious Donuts!

We were heading back home from a weekend trip and I mentioned this place. We decided to order a dozen and OMG too much to eat but at the same time every single one has been so delicious. You can taste the time they put into each donut. We will be back next time we're in Nashville!

I wanted so bad to be screaming from the rooftops how much I loved this place. The doughnuts bases themselves are great. Don't get me wrong, the 100 layers concept is awesome, but the toppings plus fillings weren't hitting the mark for me and we tried 3 different ones. I'm obsessed with donuts. That's my favorite dessert treat but these ones were just not what I was dreaming of. Brownie batter was most definitely GOOD, but not over $5 good. The Cinnamon crunch one was so overly cinnamon flavored I wiped off some of the frosting (and I love cinnamon). The Monster donut was my big let down. I love bacon plus sweet on anything and everything but this one tasted like there was bacon grease piped throughout the whole thing. It was as if it was dropped in a vat of it and I was eating spoonfuls of grease instead of frosting. My husband said the same thing. I actually got a stomach ache after eating that one (I did eat all 3 at least 4 hours apart and just 1/2 at a time). I wanted so much for this to be awesome. Maybe next time I'll try different flavors and I'll be in love. The staff was great though.

I don't know how I've gone this long without trying Five Daughter's Bakery. It is an icon on Twelve South for tourists but even as a local I will say it deserves the hype. In addition to Twelve South there are a few other locations around Nashville. I went to the one inside L&L Market today since it is a bit more parking friendly. The donuts are expensive (about $5 a piece) but they are also huge. They have mini donuts too but only in some flavors. They also make paleo donuts, yeast donuts and other baked goods like cookies and orange rolls. I tried the blueberry lemon, purist and brownie batter. The blueberry lemon was probably my favorite. It was dense but also light and fluffy and just the right combo of sweet and sour. The purist was a classic that came in a close second. I didn't love the brownie batter as much as I thought I would but it was still good. It was filled with chocolate which is always a plus! I can't wait to be back and try more flavors (they rotate every month).

Amazing cronut! BEST DONUT IVE EVER HAD! Tried the vanilla cream and mini blueberry lavender. Incredible flavors and texture. Not too sweet, thank goodness. Mind blowing texture and fluffiness. I did not feel sick like I would on a regular donut. So satisfying... unlike other donut companies. Awesome location in the food hall, lots to shop and enjoy. Staff was helpful and friendly. Can't wait until I return!

This place is a must if you want donuts. They have so many different flavors that you won't get at a normal mass-donut shop. We got the Mini Blueberry Lavender and Mini Fudge Cookie donuts. They were so sweet and so delicious! The Mini Fudge Cookie donut was my favorite just because the Mini Blueberry Lavender... I couldn't get the amount of lavender I wanted out of it, but it was still great.

Best donuts I've ever had in my life
Monica M.

Absolutely incredible place. Now I have tried my fair share of donuts around the world... finally had the opportunity to give Five Daughters a shot a few weeks back and WOW. Unexpectedly good. Best donuts I have ever had!! The 100 layer donut I was expecting to be like a croissant but no- (not that croissants are bad- they certainly aren't) these guys are the star of the show. We tried 6 donuts- some regular and some of the 100 layer ones. Was expecting the 100 layers to not be filled, but they were all filled with the freshest fillings I have had. Everything about these donuts are exceptional. I cannot rave anymore about these- go get some!! Large flavor selection, typically a decent line, super fresh and they even have other yummy things like cookies. What are you doing!? Get to Five Daughters STAT!

Chocolate Sea Salt , King Kong , Vanilla Cream
Joriene M.

Food 5(/5 stars): One of my favorite donuts of all time. The 100 layers and the flavors were phenomenal. My favorite flavor was the King Kong (maple bacon), but the Chocolate Sea Salt was a very close 2nd place. I don't usually like filled donuts, but their filling was excellent; one was like cream and the other like frosting. You must try if you're ever in Nashville! Experience (5/5 stars): * Price: reasonable because they're high quality donuts * Wait Time: no wait on a Sunday morning * Service: very good and friendly

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.

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.

John Lewis Way S between Broadway and Commerce Street near the Ryman Auditorium, it's centrally located. We went there three times while in Nashville: to grab a wrap from Radish ("fast-casual healthy food restaurant with menu highlights including grain bowls, wraps, and salads") to stave off hypoglycemia; for dinner at Sixty Vines; and drinks at Butterfly Bar. It's a pretty solid place to go to grab a bite to eat, and there's something for everyone. Also, it's a good place to use the washroom. [Yelp collections: Nashville, TN 2026; Pee for free!]
