We were recommended this place by a bartender. So glad we happened to eat breakfast close by and stumbled into this place before our flight back home. The donuts were so soft and flakey. There was a line when we arrived but it moved pretty quickly. I wished they had a menu of the flavors posted up in the line so we could have more time to decide what we wanted. You can't really see what flavors they have till it's your turn to order and so I felt a bit pressured to order quickly since there was a long line behind me. read more

Fantastic donuts! The one I tried had buttercream and bacon on top. They have several varieties of donuts to choose from but they are worth the price. read more

I always order way too much when I visit because everything looks so delicious! My only problem is some of the donuts/cookies are just way too sweet. I couldn't enjoy the French toast cookie because it tasted like pure sugar. They are still worth a visit in my opinion! read more

Stopped at the bakery located inside the L&L marketplace. We bought one raspberry "cronut" with filling. The doughnut is large, had a real raspberry filling and the most amazing raspberry frosting. I am more of a savory foods person but this doughnut was really good! A bit pricey at $4.50 but you can tell it's all made from scratch with real fruit. read more

We love Five Daughters. Our favorite it the Vanilla, 100 layer donut. We recommend it to all our friends and guest as it never disappoints. The only negative is if you don't get your donut before they run out, so we recommend the 12 South location! They seem to have the highest stock of our favorite, but definitely go online and check the cameras. read more

Delicious! Stopped in for an afternoon treat and it didn't disappoint. We each had the cinnamon crunch and shared mini blueberry lavender. Highly recommend the cinnamon crunch - so soft, the topping was fantastic and there was a small amount of cream between one of the layers read more

This is the bakery's fourth and newest location in the Nashville metro area, one of the first things you'll see when you enter the shiny new L & L Market (that replaced the old restaurant equipment warehouse). And the market is lucky to have such a proven entity in Five Daughters! I can't tell if they make donuts here in such a tiny space, or have them delivered daily from the mother ship in Franklin, but they do have some equipment. That glorious yeasty smell of their magnificent donuts doesn't hit you when you walk into L & L like it does at The Factory in Franklin, so maybe they aren't made here. However, I can confirm that the donuts are just as good as any Five Daughters location! They were out of my favorite maple cronut, and that's never happened at the other stores. so inventory is probably lower here. But the backup plan, a vanilla buttercream cronut, was equal in quality to the other locations. If you're in the area, or even shopping inside L & L, you won't want to miss this stop! read more

We tried several of the donuts at Five Daughters Bakery and loved them all! My personal favorite was the vegan blueberry lemon donut -- it was so fresh and tart! My husband and I split two donuts, and I was very sad to give up the second half of that one. However, the layered cinnamon sugar donut was also very good. I love the atmosphere of this location, with all the cute stores and central seating area. And while I do not personally have any dietary restrictions, I appreciated the vegan/paleo/etc options! read more

I'll admit, I was a bit apprehensive when saw Five Daughters Bakery's actual donuts. You see, I'm a simplistic person when it comes to donuts. Give me a standard glazed and a tall glass of whole milk and I'm golden. When I saw the vast spread of available donuts, flashes of the former cupcake craze Nashville entered my mind. You see FDB's donuts look over-indulgent and over-decadent. So did the cupcakes back then, where cupcakes where overloaded with a mountain of icing where it actually ruined the cupcake. I thought to myself, is this the same? Well simply put, it's not. FDB's donuts seem intimidating but they aren't. I opted for 3 donuts because I needed to be sure they were the real deal. I got the Pineapple Whip, King Kong, and Cuban Cold Brew. Out of the 3, Pineapple Whip was the most disappointing. You see when I get something that is fruit-flavored, I expect it to taste like that fruit. The Pineapple Whip had absolutely no pineapple flavor. I tasted only the vanilla. While it was still good as for as gourmet donuts go, it was the weakest one. The King Kong ranked #2 for me. It's basically the same thing as the Maple Glaze donut but with candied bacon pieces. The bacon added a salty, savory flavor and complemented the vanilla buttercream and maple glaze. Last but not least, the Cuban Cold Brew was my favorite. I think it was the sweetened condensed milk cream in the middle that did it for me. It was like a glazed coffee cake in steroids. If you love donuts you'll love Five Daughters Bakery. If you love sweets to any degree, their donuts are a good substitute for actual dessert (I do the same thing with fresh Krispy Kreme). The donuts aren't a fad (I hope) and are legitimately delicious. read more

Great donuts with very inventive flavors!! I would recommend and will come back to try each of them.

Highly recommend if you are looking for a quick desert. They have a flaky croissant style or regular style donut selection. We had two of their croissant donuts. They are extremely flavorful with a great flaky to doughy consistency. This location is perfect set in a small food hall with other restaurants to compliment your donuts. read more

Very cute spot with interesting take on the donut. The outside patio was spacious and even included a children's play area. Loved to see people casually sipping coffee and enjoying donuts together :) Good COVID precautions when we walked inside including spacing floor stickers and hand sanitizer. Also appreciated the menu board so that we could plan which donuts we wanted while waiting in line. I'm a HUGE donut fan and these were solid, though personally not my favorite type of donut. The regular size 100 layer donut was definitely better than the mini versions: first because it was filed with cream, second because it was more moist and ate fresher. The mini 100 layer donut was good to try different icings, but ate dryer. The texture of the 100 layer donut overall was good, but did seem very similar to a yeast donut vs a crossaint. Was expecting a crispier, more buttery cronut but I could've been fooled into thinking it was just a regular donut. Still very flavorful and tasty. Love me a good kouign amaan and their take on it was interesting but lacked what I love about a kouign amaan! still good and I enjoyed it but I missed the nice, crispy sugary crust that's formed with the traditional pastry. Yeast donut was fine, but would recommend skipping t try their more interesting donut creations. I'd say if you're making the trip here, stick with the full, regular size 100 layer donut. read more

Incredible donuts. Creative flavors. Affordable too!!! This storefront is housed in L and L Market and could not be a better location. The market is filled with lovely shops, a delicious coffee spot, and this fantastic bakery. I got the oat milk matcha donut and the maple bacon donut! So so yummy and so excited to go back soon. 100000% recommend stopping in. read more

Overall: pretty good pastry Pros: original flavors, keeps well if not eating immediately (unlike Shipley donuts, my fave); cool venue (food hall) Cons: $5 per donut?! Also, very limited supply and selection after lunch. We could also tell they were not fresh. If there was a discount after a certain time to sell off the older donuts since they aren't fresh any longer, I'd consider this a reasonable purchase. I do not plan to return, as there are much better pastry options in Nashville for a lot less than $5. read more

Five Daughters Bakery - Donuts Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Five Daughters, which has several locations in Nashville, sells what they call 100-layer donuts, which are really just cronuts that they can't call cronuts because of the trademark. If you've never had a cronut before, it's a heavenly hybrid of a croissant and a doughnut. Croissant-like dough is shaped into a doughnut then fried, allowing for the formation of innumerable, flaky layers of goodness. This location is in the middle of L&L Market and is an ideal place to go if you want to avoid the crowds. The Boo (February 2020 special): 4/5 I can't resist chocolate, so I was not surprised that I enjoyed this cronut with its three types of chocolate (chocolate cake filling, chocolate fudge topping, dark chocolate chips). I especially appreciated the dark chocolate chips on top because otherwise, the cronut would've been too sweet for me (a rarity). Kid Cake (February 2020 special): 3/5 This one was definitely too sweet for me. The yellow cake filling wouldn't have been bad by itself, but it was the generous amount of buttercream frosting on top that just sweeted me out. I think this cronut would've benefited from some acidity or bitterness to add more dimension to the flavor profile. Lucy's Lemonade (February 2020 special): 4/5 The sourness from the lemon curd filling was perfect in that it complemented the sweetness of the rest of the donut. However, since this is a strawberry lemonade-flavored cronut, I would've liked to have been able to detect more strawberry flavor, but I didn't get much from either the strawberry sugar covering the cronut or the strawberry glaze topping the cronut. Tiramisu (seasonal special): 5/5 Favorite flavor I tried! I love chocolate ganache in any setting, and it was a great topping for this cronut. I also appreciated how the generous dusting of cocoa powder on top balanced out the sweetness of the cream cheese filling. read more

The donuts look good, I'll give them that, but that's where my compliments to Five Daughters ends. After hearing so many good things about Five Daughters, we admittedly had high expectations and were so disappointed! Came at 8:30am and both of our donuts were stale. The fillings were super uneven and overall the donuts were bland. When I tilted my donut to eat it, all of the frosting fell off in one large chunk. Would be willing to try the 12 South location since they are baked fresh there, but the consistent problems across both of the donuts we tried do not leave me with a lot of hope. read more

O.M.G.oodness!! Don't know if they're franchising this place, but if they do they'll kill it. Some of the most amazing donut-ish sweets you'll ever eat. We tried a bunch (we had several of our own: vanilla cream, maple glaze, and molasses pecan pie, and then bought more to give to family members), and they all were amazing. read more

I will preface this review by admitting that we are lucky enough to have a couple five daughters bakery locations in Atlanta, where I actually left. However, I was helping my friend move to Nashville and on our morning walk, we decided to stop by L & L market. When I realized there was a Five Daughters Bakery inside of the market, I told my friend we needed to get a doughnut. I was actually not even in the mood for a doughnut, but I cannot pass by a Five Daughters Bakery without at least considering. We decided to split the pumpkin spice latte seasonal doughnut, and it was really fun to watch my friend enjoy her first five daughters bakery donut. These are just so delicious! The pumpkin spice latte donut was so good! It had a cream cheese filling and they used a bit of coffee to nod to the latte flavoring. I actually only ate about a quarter of the donut, but it really was so delicious! read more

Cronuts. Many delicious cronuts. So delicious that I actually hate that I can order these on Uber eats. My wife and I love to treat ourselves to these delicious donuts from any of the Five Daughters locations. I enjoy the seasonal flavors, and have a hankering for the King Kong every time we order. My wife really likes the s'mores donut, but to be honest, we've not had a donut here that honestly wasn't excellent. There is a Five Daughters box on my counter right now, and it's calling me by name. read more

Let me start off with donuts are my most favorite sweet ever! I make a point to look up a local donut spots everywhere I travel to try! This by FAR has been the best!!! I can not just pick one single donut as my favorite. They were all delicious! The thin layers combined on top of each other make it light and airy. I can not wait to go back to Nashville to make this place my first stop! Whenever someone tells me they are visiting Nashville I tell them to add this place to the top of their list! No one is ever disappointed from this recommendation. read more

The sugar donuts are insane. Has like 2 lbs of butter in each nut so be careful. I got a box of 6 and I ate them in 2 days. Had my stomach bubblin' but cannot take them off my mind. They look super filling but they are so buttery and airy when you bite into them.. I have not tried anything else but their donuts were enough to make me come back for more. read more

If you think these are just croinuts you will be pleasantly incorrect! These 100 layer donuts are delicious! We got a lemon curd and a salted chocolate. Both donuts has filling inside the flakey sugary layers. They also had mini donuts of all the flavors! We got there later in the day so there weren't as many mini options but that's to be expected with any donut shop. The staff was friendly and quick, the woman at the register had everything rung up before we even got there. read more

All of the regular donuts have some kind of cream on the top layer. My friend said out loud she didn't like cream filled donuts and the guy didn't even tell us that was part of their recipe or something... so we ended up paying over $40 for donuts that we didn't eat. We even brought them back to my boyfriend who has a huge sweet tooth and he was disgusted but the texture. Also, they added so much salt to every single item we got , including the cookies. I ordered the gluten free and they were salty and very strange texture. The dark chocolate cookie was inedible it was so salty. I would never recommend this place to anyone. read more

You might look at me and think to yourself, "Now there's a girl that knows her way around a donut." And you wouldn't be wrong. So, with that in mind, I'll offer this: the 100 layer donut from Five Daughters Bakery may be the closest you'll ever get to having an orgasm from eating a pastry product. And, yes, it really is that good. Like, seriously. That being said, it's not exactly all parade and no storm clouds here. I spent $70 on *one*dozen* donuts and a drink. And, no; that's not a typo. I actually said *** $70 *** Though, it's probably better that way - otherwise I'd be driving to Nashville once a month for donuts... But bottom line: whether your local or visiting from out of town, definitely stop in. You'll never look at donuts the same way again. read more

Anyway we tried 2 mini donuts one was the lemonade donut with pink icing and it was delicious - not too sweet just right. The second one we tried was the Boo and it was decorated with dark chocolate chips and filled with dark chocolate. Great service here too!! Don't miss this treat! read more
