Apple fritters, cinnamon rolls, cream filled, sprinkles and glazed. All yummy :)
Stephanie V.

The best donuts in Middle Tennessee. So soft and pillowy. The ham and cheese croissants are amazing. We were on the other side of town and tried the number 2 rated donut shop and were more than disappointed. We literally left and drove straight to Donut Palace. Will never go anywhere else for donuts again. Staff is super friendly and service is fast and efficient.

Everyone got to the donuts before I was able to snap a pic! lol

I think it's time for an update from 6 years ago! Donut Palace still remains my #1 donut spot in Rutherford County! I'm not a huge donut fan but the ones here are so light and fluffy, I can eat more than one without getting an upset stomach lol. I like to go a little later around 9am ish because they have their cinnamon roll donuts! Around 5am when they're first open they usually do not have them. Their apple fritters are to die for!!! You must try them even if you're not an apple fritter fan, because let me tell you, I hate apple pies, fritters, etc...but everyone raves about them so I had tried them one day and have been hooked! The original glaze are also our go to! The service here is always great! The older couple are always super friendly! Their son is very friendly too! Their entire family is great! Good people! Don't be scared if you see a long line out the door. They move super fast! Super adorable! This will always be my go to place!

The classic local donut shop with classic donuts... Seasonal flavors are creative and delicious but the traditional flavors are the true sign of a good donut shop and they do them RIGHT.

Donut Palace is the best Donut shop in Murfreesboro by far! I absolutely love this place. Many people prefer Donut Country, but not me. I love the ham & cheese croissants, the maple glazed, the old fashioned, and the plain donuts here. The dough melts in your mouth and they are always delicious

When I read the reviews about the melt in your mouth pillowiness I new I had to try this place...let me just tell you...melt in your mouth and pillowy is the right and accurate way to describe their glazed donuts! They are amazing and dangerous The old fashioned is even light for a cake donut. Apple fritter is my husbands favorite and they are delicious! I'd prefer a little more crisp to them but they are great and my husband was very happy with them.

The best donut place in the boro. I usually just go for the original glaze. I ordered my wife an Apple fritter because other reviewers recommended it. She loved it. I am not an Apple pie guy but this was not bad. It was crispy and crunchy. My little guy loves the donut holes.

A friend shared a donut with me today and it was INCREDIBLE. I left and headed to Donut Palace to check it out at 12:30pm not expecting a lot of selection available. This place has been around for about 10 years...sadly I am just discovering them now. Even at this late hour there was a lot to choose from and I loved that they box half-dozen versus dumping them in a bag. I picked up a half-dozen assorted and noticed they also have Kolaches so I grabbed one to snack on. The Kolaches was really good and lasted all of three bites. One of the benefits of being single, you can take a bite out of each donut to sample them. So when I got home I did a taste test and I'm telling you...these were the softest and best flavored donuts I have had in a very long time. Not overly sweet, great flavors (devils food, cinnamon, maple, raspberry, etc.), not greasy, and so light and soft. The service was quick and the lady who took care of me was very nice. This is now my donut and Kolaches spot!!! P.S. I know...one of the donuts did not make it to the photoshoot. It was a raspberry jelly one and it fell out of the box and into my belly before the camera got the shot

Coworker brought some in today. Damn tasty. I can't comment on the store, etc., since they were delivered right to my pie-hole.

After speaking to them about my concern, they've gotten a lot better about making plenty of ham and cheese crossisant and the donuts.

Great donuts - not so dry like so many others. Tender, fresh, and just the right amount of sweetness.

So excited I stumbled upon this cute little spot I actually…read morehad it saved to my go to in Nashville not knowing there was one in Murfreesboro The young lady there was super nice and explained all the donuts and pastries they offer as it was my first time That was super sweet of her I ordered 2 of the cronut style donuts and they were delicious They were almost $6 a donut but definitely worth it and shareable Will definitely be back Great hospitality and great dessert

First, the good - the bakery is very clean and airy, the employee helping us was very kind and…read morehelpful, and service was prompt. Unfortunately...these donuts just missed the mark for us. We ordered 2 iced breve lattes, our daughter got some juice from the cooler, and we ordered 4 donut options to split between 3 of us. We didn't care for the brand of espresso they used - it's really floral and just wasn't what we prefer. I think the shots were pulled right, we just didn't care for that roast. And the donuts...we got maple, King Kong, blueberry-lemon, and vanilla. The maple and vanilla tasted almost identical - just sweet on sweet on sweet. The King Kong was better - it had thick, smoky bacon on top that at least gave it another dimension. The last one we got was the blueberry-lemon. This was the favorite for all of us - you could taste both flavors and the lemon was tart enough to cut through some of the sweetness. Additionally...these were VERY expensive. 4 donuts, 2 iced lattes, and a bottle of juice was $50! I had been looking forward to trying this place for a long time and it was just disappointing. I know, obviously, donuts are sweet by nature, but these were just ONLY sweet...and too sweet for us. The store is beautiful and I love the concept, but Five Daughters was a miss for us.

Of course those donuts are great! There is no doubt about that. These are my favorite chocolate…read moretop cream filled and that's all I get when I go to Krispy Kreme. The service today was great. The little drive-through lady did have a little hard time understanding us but no biggie and as we were leaving, we parked to get some pictures of the donuts and a lady beside us asked us if we were from around here and she gave me a fundraiser card where I can buy a dozen of donuts and get a dozen of donuts, free so hey, it's shaping up to be a really good day and by the way, this was an unscheduled birthday stop, my husband said tell the said tell the truth. What Happened was the Krispy Kreme is right next-door to stop number 4. Stop number 4 was 5 minutes till opening and KK had a sale on a dozen for $12.

I've encountered this issue multiple times, so it is no longer a one-off mistake…read more On several visits, I've tried to order donuts that were clearly displayed in the top row of the display case, only to be told they're not available for sale. If they're not for sale, why are they displayed where customers are expected to choose? It's confusing and frustrating. Additionally, the donuts in the display case are frequently mislabeled. I ordered items based on the posted name, only to be told the donut I requested is out of stock. That defeats the entire purpose of having a labeled display case. As a customer, I expect the display to accurately reflect what is available for purchase. Repeated inconsistencies like this make the ordering process inefficient and erode trust in the presentation. I genuinely enjoy the product, but the operational issues around display accuracy and availability need attention. I have already submitted a formal complaint to Krispy Kreme and waiting on their response.

Krispy Kreme - This are my absolutely most FAVORITE donut in the whole wide world.  Chocolate topped "cream" filled. Not that dastardly custard stuff.

It's one of their seasonal drinks but I really hope they would keep it permanent! It tastes better than the actual tiramisu dessert! I've also tried their merry matcha, their viral hot chocolate, churro latte -which is also a great drink. I've tried many churro lattes and multiple coffee shops and they are not good. Viva La Fresa definitely makes it good! I have also tried their tres leche latte and another one of my favorites is their fresita matcha latte! I love the strawberry crunchies on top! Their donuts are also good, very light and airy just the way I like them! The shop is soo cute and lots of PINK! The service here is great! The people are super friendly! My only regrets is that it took me forever to try them. They are about 25 mins from me and I do not frequent symrna but I hope they're able to expand in the future closer to me :D can't wait to go back and try their other drinks and pastries!!
