    I have passed this place for years and finally stopped in...so glad I did! Staff was great and place has lots of doughnut options. Ordered the following: Buttermilk, Cinnamon Sugar, Maple Bar and Chocolate Doughnut! They were fresh, delicious and not greasy! Favorite was the Maple Bar!

    In every city I visit, I try to find the best donut shop. For Nashville, I think Fox's Donut Den is it! They have everything from the old fashion to cronies to apple fritters, all equally fresh and delicious. We bought so many, we couldn't possibly finish them all in the same day and they are still good days later. Two thumbs up! UPDATE: Because I bought so many donuts, we had to eat them one day at a time. I ate the apple fritter literally SIX DAYS after purchase, nuked it in the microwave, and the buttery goodness that melted in my mouth warranted this update. DELICIOUS.

    Not super impressed. It's a very cool authentic donut shop and I love the fact that they are open later than most other donut shops. Has a very staple like feeling for the area, very classic. But a very average donut. Definitely does the job and they have some great stuff there but for the vibes it gave off I thought I would be a little more impressed by the quality of the pastries/donuts.

    SOO GOOD!! The best glazed donut i've ever had. I have a list of doughnut places i like and they are at the top. the rest of the flavors are good also, but none super exceptional the way the glazed is. Every time i've gone in they are super nice and always have a full stock of donuts, they've never been out of anything. So many treats here including little cakes and slurpe. LOVE!!!!!

    Great prices, huge selection, and very fresh donuts! I've ordered from them for many years and it has been the highest quality. Norm is the man! Super friendly and he even helped me carry the boxes to my car. I catered the donuts for an event and everyone loved it. I pre-ordered a couple dozens and they even made pumpkin donuts just for the order. If you're craving a classic donut, this is the place for you. My favorites were the cake types. The pumpkin, blueberry, and chocolate cake ones were good. For classics, the vanilla and strawberry sprinkles was delicious. If you go there, you'll see a wide variety of flavors. Can't go wrong with any!

The customer service is top notch. Be prepared for a line, it is VERY busy but I promise it is worth the wait.

Highly recommend checking them out.

There was a line when we arrived, but it wasn't so bad. It moved by pretty quickly. While in line, you bypass all the pastries displayed behind the glass and they looked beautiful! Everything looked amazing. I ended up ordering the Twice Baked Croissant and the Fried Chicken Breakfast Sandwich. The Twice Baked Croissant was just incredible. It had pistachios on top, a pistachio cream inside, and also a cherry or raspberry jam inside too. I love pistachios, and the pistachio cream inside was so light, creamy, delicate, but flavorful. I absolutely loved all the different textures. The croissant was airy and fluffy inside, and the outside had a nice flaky exterior. And the fruit jam inside complemented the pistachio cream very well, it added a nice sweetness that blended well with the cream. For me, it tied the whole thing together. I will definitely be thinking of this pastry when I think of pistachio croissants. And for the Fried Chicken Breakfast Sandwich? Wow. I didn't know what to expect, but it was much larger than I anticipated. It was tall, like when I was bringing it to the table the top part of the bun almost fell off my plate because it had height. The fried chicken piece was great: juicy and had a nice golden color. It was crispy and also quite large for a chicken piece.. All the components about it were executed well: the fried chicken, the coleslaw! (i'm a coleslaw fanatic), and the sauce inside the sandwich was wonderful. Also last but not least, the fried egg too? Wow. I love a good runny egg. I'm not exaggerating, I was drenching the pieces of my sandwich in the sauce on my plate. It was just that good. Genuinely, I couldn't believe I finished that sandwich because it was very filling and that fried chicken piece was huge! Service was fast and friendly, I liked interacting with them. It is pretty small inside and we came on a weekend so it was busy and packed. We were lucky to snag a small table but it was difficult to find seating when we got our food. All in all, I'm so happy we came here. Yes it is a little pricey, but you get what you pay for. The quality is clearly there and showed up through everything we got. I had such a memorable time, thank you for taking care of us!

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.

    Extremely disappointing presentation. Definitely not worth the money…read more We ordered over the phone and email for our Bachelorette weekend and were promised the airbrushed buttercream photo that we sent in. The fondant version is what we got complete with mis-spelling and child like painted on details. After notifying Kelly that we were not happy with the presentation she proceeded to text a bunch of photos of cakes she's done that turned out great, incessantly defending her sub-par work. She blamed the extreme heat for inability to complete as ordered, they tried putting it in the freezer to keep it cold but just too hot out. She said she would have directed us differently as far as type of cake decor if she had known the weather would be so hot- we ordered this cake far in advance and the the heat wave was anticipated days before we arrived. It really just seems like the type of detail we wanted was not something this bakery is capable of doing. We had the cake delivered to the house before we got there which was super convenient. Only got concerned with this after Kelly told us to make sure to lock our doors at night since we were in a "bad" neighborhood. Since the bakery had the code to our doors and she was texting this late at night, this comment was received as threatening and we became concerned for our safety. The customer service and service recovery is something this bakery really needs to work on, we will NEVER be working with them again. Only positives... She did acknowledge that the order looked very rushed and gave us 10% refund. The cake tasted great, but just not worth the money in my opinion.

I got myself an almond croissant and then took to my friends 2 churro croissants and 2 plain ones.

My friends and I loved the plain and churro croissants. The size is great and they were perfectly fluffy.
