    Some of the days lineup

    Simple donut shop, with some of the best donuts I've had in a while. Service is quick, and ambiance is relaxed. Had seating inside for small groups. Been here a couple times, since it's around the corner from my hotel. Had a couple donuts and also had a couple lattes.

    Super yummy donut. Definitely worth a stop. Has also a croissant texture inside donut compared to a class one. Flakey interior. The purist was really good and the frosting was not overpowering at all. Service was quick and kind. No place to eat inside at this location though.

    Had this the previous time I came last year in another location and wanted to try again. This time I was closer to the location at the Assembly Hall area and it's more of a walk in and go, no seating inside. Still cute vibe but not able to sit and relax like the other location I visited. Cinnamon rolls are ginormous and can easily be shared by 2. Love that they offer large & smaller sized donuts. Service was good, girls working were friendly but the gentleman working seemed a bit more standoffish and not as customer focused. Still a good day experience and must do in Nashville.

    The mini donuts layers are so nice. I really like the strawberry cheesecake more than just the original glazed. I wish they warm them up instead of cold donuts

    I guess I'm a donut guy cause I am hooked on the Five daughters Bakery 100 layer donuts!! Think croissant but a little less buttery and filled with cream!! The over all flavors of this donut is crave worthy, we got the King Kong with a maple glaze and large chunks of bacon on top! It was the perfect breakfast meal that can get anyone going for the day! To know how much effort goes into the process and the affordability of it was mind blowing!

    Stopped by here for a few donuts on our way back to our hotel after dinner. They're located right by the second level of the Assembly Food Hall though they have their own storefront. We came later in the day so I wasn't sure how stocked they would be but they had everything available. Their signature item is the cronut with a variety of fillings and flavors in two sizes, regular and mini. I'm big on trying a lot of things so I like they had the mini options but since I was splitting them with my husband we decided to go for the larger ones, which made our tab a little higher. In the end we landed on the vanilla glaze (The Purist) , chocolate sea salt, vanilla cream, tiramisu, and a mini cinnamon cream cheese for science. Everything was SO good. I really love just a plain glazed donut so the Purist hit the spot. The chocolate sea salt was probably my second fave and I'd absolutely get a full sized mini cinnamon cream next time. We saved the vanilla cream and tiramisu for the next day and both held up really well! Sometimes donuts get stale but between the cream on top of the vanilla and piped of inside of both it was still great! The only thing holding me back from 5 stars is the price. We were on vacation so we went for it but if we were regulars I don't know how often we'd swing by just given that 4.5 donuts were nearly $30 plus tip. They are hearty, though, and laminated dough is not easy to do so I get it. But it was a bit steep for an everyday treat. But do treat yourself if you find yourself nearby one of their locations!

    Super cute little donut bakery! The raspberry cream was delish! The cheapest waters in town. :)

    Maple cream doughnut
    Chance P.

    This maple cream sugared doughnut was amazing and not too heavy. However, I did share with my wife and mother. I am a big fan of the hundred layer doughnuts or cronuts (croissant/donut) mix that are popular here. This place does em wonderfully, they have them in large or mini size, and the prices aren't bad at all

    Five Daughters Bakery is the perfect place to satisfy your sweet craving. They offer a wide variety of donut flavors, with both smaller and larger sizes depending on how hungry you are. I went later in the afternoon, and they had started to run out of some flavors. If you want the full selection, I would recommend arriving earlier rather than later. I will definitely be back to try more of their flavors.

    I love this bakery! The only place I go to in Nashville. This is a quick shop in the food mall to grab donuts to go. The service was quick and the donuts were fresh. They were absolutely delicious! Highly recommend to anyone who goes to Nashville!

    In many years my palette has greatly changed. Now don't get me wrong, I am all good with a red-light Krispy Kreme donut. Let's be real. They just do not taste the same and although not bad they just don't hit the way they used to. Living in many areas I have come to greatly appreciate the local places. Although this Five Daughters location is located in one of the most tourist hotbeds of Nashville it feels like a small mom and pop shop. This is a chain but is not to the point I will say of Duck Donuts, Shipley Do-Nuts, or Randy's. There are other donut shops that mirror this place, or this place mirrors many other donut shops with the selections available on the menu. The menu has something that will please everyone to include some paleo options. I went with the purist as my donut of choice. It is a basic glazed donut. Hey, they knocked this out of the park. Fluffy, airy, not overly sweet, yet still filling. So, thanks to my sis who told me about this place. One of the things I noticed is that there is not an accumulation of donuts. They make them in small batches, and it was not dozens of the same time that were sitting for who knows how long. If you want to treat yourself to a little sweetness, then check out Five Daughters. I don't think you will go wrong with any of their locations especially the one in Assembly Food Hall.

    Located in the upper level of the Assembly Food Hall, Five Daughters Bakery was recommended to me by my sister in law. Upon entry, we were greeted and had a chance to review the offerings. Although it was later in the day, all of the items appeared fresh and visually pleasing. They do support a military discount with appropriate ID. I had not had a cronut before, or at least one that was memorable. On this visit, I had the King Kong cronut and enjoyed the flaky layers, sweet and savory profile and the crispy bacon that topped it. The spouse got a simple cronut and he enjoyed his option as well. There is no seating here as things are grab and go. If in the Nashville area again, I'd definitely return to try their other offerings. This spot is worthy of referring to out of towners and others for small and large orders of pastries.

    Omg omg omg. Cronuts! We got two minis - perfect for a snack. I got the Cream Cheese Sticky Bun (caramel) and hubs got the Parent Trap (cookies n cream). To die for. We will be checking out the 12 South location as well.

    While there are several Five Daughters Bakery locations in the area, this was the one I had planned…read moreto visit on my last day in town. When I arrived, there weren't many people in line, so ordering was quick and easy. One of the things I loved right away was how the building felt more like a home than a bakery. There was some cute merchandise to browse, and signs throughout the space clearly directed customers where to go to order. Once I made my way to the counter and saw the donut selection for the day, I was beyond excited. Everything looked amazing! I knew I wanted to take some donuts home to share with my chiropractor and her team since she was actually the one who recommended that I visit in the first place. Thankfully, they offered a box of six mini donuts, which was the perfect option for sharing. Of course, I couldn't leave without getting a few full-sized donuts for myself and my husband. After much debate, I chose the Maldon Chocolate, Wild Berry, and Boston Cream. Once everything was packed up and ready to go, I headed outside, but there was no way I was waiting until I got home to try one. The Wild Berry donut was calling my name, so I took a bite right there. It was warm, soft, flaky, and bursting with flavor. The berry filling was delicious, and they definitely didn't skimp on it. Every bite was packed with sweet, fruity goodness. Honestly, that first bite was pure perfection and exactly what I needed before a long drive home. Sharing the donuts with everyone when I got back made the experience even more fun, and they were a huge hit. Overall, this bakery absolutely lived up to the hype, and I can't wait to come back and try even more flavors on my next visit!

    Had to stop by here during our recent visit to Nashville to get their famous donuts. We came within…read morethe last 30 min of their open hours so not much selection left. We ended up getting; 1) the purist - glazed donut, loved this! 2) strawberry shortcake mini x 2, not too sweet 3) chocolate sprinkle mini x 2, kiddos enjoyed this 4) vanilla cream donut, husband said it was good 5) milk x 2 We loved all the flavors, nothing was too sweet, just nicely done and still good the next day for our roadtrip!

He had them on a previous trip a couple years ago and they obviously were so memorable it was his only request. On our last day before heading home to NC we got out early to be there shortly after they opened so we could have the best selection. I don't know how anyone leaves here with less than 6 of their delicious pastries. We got 6 regular and 6 mini versions. We took the box and immediately sat outside to take a bite of each regular one. Wow! I remember when the cronut became a huge thing and I took a trip to NYC to try them from Dominque Ansel Bakery. They are delicious. These from Five Daughters truly are so so good too! Plus they have more variety and I don't need a plane ticket! The service is very friendly and they didn't rush me making my choices. The interior is bright and welcoming and although they don't have any indoor seating there are some tables outside to sit and enjoy your treats. 10/10 I'll be back when I'm in Nashville or near any other Five Daughters locations again.

The maple doughnut had half of it filled with a gritty cream. You could feel the granulated sugar in the cream. It was a bit strange and unexpected. I'd pass on getting it again but the flavors were delicious. It is a popular bakery so order early for the best selection!
