I loved the selection of doughnuts available. Sometimes the speciality shops don't offer enough variety but parlor doughnuts had a great selection. I stopped in on a Saturday morning, the staff was friendly and answered a few Questions I had about the doughnuts. The shop was small, so there isn't much room to sit but it was kept nice and clean. If you haven't been here yet it's definitely worth the visit! read more

Parlor Doughnuts - Raspberry Jelly Filled mini - Donuts Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

This is worth a visit just know you are best going on a day with a lot of planned movement to benefit from the sugar high you will experience. This is the kind of place where you walk in order & are handed a box with your purchase. While some folks were standing around eating it was not an eat-in spot. They supply you a small box so you don't have eat it immediately but isn't it always a little better as fresh as possible? The doughnut is a yeast one (opposed to a cake). It had some croissant feel to it as well which I enjoyed and seemed to result in less yeast taste which is my usual issue with this type of doughnut. They come with several topping options. I tried the maple bacon and hubs got the carnival one. The sugar frost on top can be a little much and I do wish the maple taste was a little more prominent on mine. They also had warm beverages but I felt like the doughnuts had enough sugar. I would visit again (& we may before we leave town). read more

Parlor Doughnuts - Donuts Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

I was very interested in the flavor offerings but when we got inside they were almost sold out of everything so I'd recommend going earlier rather than later. We got there around 11am. The donuts we did get were flavorful and fun. They offer gluten free options which my friend appreciated. The service was quick once decisions were made. It's a quaint shop and has a donut display to see what you're getting. read more

This place was right across the street from the place we were staying, The Burnham. It is only open 7-3 and everything smelled so good. We should have stopped in earlier as by the afternoon all they had left was the coconut cream filled minis. We were not disappointed and the cashier tossed in an extra one as they were running out for the day. They even have savory layered doughnuts that i'd love to try. read more

Hands down these are the BEST donuts in the world! I've had them in SC. I was in town for the weekend and noticed this location right by my hotel last night. Lucky for me, they opened at 6:30 Sunday morning and I was able to get some before heading the airport! SO DAMN GOOD! read more

Super cute place with unique donuts. Loved my pepperoni pizza donut. The individual who took and prepared my order was also a fellow Sox fan from MA. Loved the decor. Very close to the Music City Center and arena if you're in the area. read more

Fantastic donuts! Had some for the first time as a gift from a vendor we were visiting in town after my boss was raving about how much he loved them. I fell in love with the Honey Glaze immediately! I always say that you can really tell a lot about a donut company by how good their most simple glazed donut is. Looking forward to coming back again and visiting the actual store and trying some new flavors! read more

Friendly staff, great sweet rolls & mini doughnuts. The drip coffee was very good as well

Walked over to parlor for our first official breakfast on vacay. The line wasn't too bad and it always helps when you're standing in the most heavenly smell of freshly baked donuts. They were not your average donut and they had the most amazing variety. We went with French toast and lemon. Omg amazing. Both were moan worthy. I preferred the lemon because (and I hate that I'm writing this) the other was too sweet. Pair it with a black coffee though and you've found perfection. read more

Great variety of donuts, friendly staff, good location, minimal seating inside. I got French Toast and Strawberry Shortcake. Both great but I liked strawberry one more. French Toast basically just Maple flavor so I may as well have gotten Maple Bacon. I went around 10:30am. I kinda wish the donuts were a little warm. Seemed slightly cold/hard. I would def go back to try more though read more

Wow, what can I say about this maple bacon doughnut that the photo doesn't say. I have to say it's one of the best donuts I've ever had and the best maple bacon donuts I've ever had. It's more like a breakfast cake that gives you a fix for your sweets for the entire day. Nice job parlor donuts. read more

I ordered the mini doughnut special ahead of time of pick up, but alas they were sold out when I got there. HOWEVER, manager on duty was super apologetic about it and allowed me to choose any other doughnut in the store as a replacement, AS WELL AS gave us an additional one for the inconvenience. The yummies are delicious and despite it not being their fault (this joint is first come first serve as everything is baked fresh daily), they went out of their way to "Make it right", when honestly -- I ordered at 9:30a on a Saturday with both the Preds and Titans playing that weekend, so clearly there were a ton of people in town and visiting their location. 10/10. Appreciated the kindness, smiles and delicious treats! read more

Definitely not your typical cake donuts and certainly delicious! We had the blueberry hill and French toast with coffees. The young lady who waited on us on 1/11/26, was a pleasure to talk to. A true asset to a small business! The location was not a long walk from our stay at the Hilton Garden Inn. Hope to return sometime and try future menu offerings! read more

Awesome doughnuts. Thankfully i'm just visiting otherwise would be hard not to go here everyday.

Doughnuts are quite solid - excellent balance of crispy and chewy. They are sweet but the texture was the best part. French Toast lives up to the name and Maple Bacon is a nice balance with not too much bacon flavor. Campfire was a favorite of my daughter. Coffee decent, though would love a darker roast option. read more

Really cute place attached to a lobby area of a hotel that has a lounge and game area! Great place to enjoy these delicious fluffy donuts! We got smores, confetti and a plain sugar donut and they were a hit. Donut base is perfectly browned super fluffy croissant like buttery donut. Heads up that the glazes are very messy and wet not like ur traditional hard shell glaze on a donut so grab extra napkins! They were so kind to even offer our pup and dog treat donut biscuit which was just the coolest ! Would definitely recommend and a fun stop while in Nashville. read more

Best donuts in the USA! Parlor Doughnuts simply cannot be beat; they boast every flavor from rich dark chocolate to fruity and cinnamony. I have had the privilege of trying many different kinds and they are all amazing. These really truly do melt in your mouth. I have no idea how they do it, but Parlor doughnuts are a mix between the best fried donut and the best croissant you have ever had. The glazes are magnificent and taste just as they are described. Unlike other donuts these stay fresh for a few days which is nice when you want an ongoing tasty treat. This location is small but packs a punch with their inventory and flavors per usual. The store itself is small and the inside doesn't have much room, so take them to go. There is a huge American flag that screams that parlor is proud to be an American (one of the many things to love about Nashville), and the place has a heavenly aroma. The prices are astronomical; not cheap! However, its worth every penny. You get what you pay for, and it this case it's damn good donuts! The service at this location was a bit disgruntled the day we visited, but maybe it was a bad day? He still got us what we wanted and we were happy. If you like donuts at all (if you don't, I don't know you), you have to make your way to Parlor Doughnuts, they are the best around! read more

Donuts are amazing! Super tasty. They're like rectangle, two bites mini doughnuts and very delicious. We got a box with a variety of them. The glazed with coconut cream and powdered with jelly were my two favorites. There are regular sized donuts but I wanted to try different varieties. Service was good. Everyone was friendly and helpful. Ambiance is nice inside. There's street parking which is limited. I would highly recommend for donuts! read more

Pretty good coffee and donut shop right next too/in the lobby of the hotel. They are only open from 7 am to 3 pm though so you have to get there before evening. Coffee was good, the donuts were amazing. They have all different types. I was with a large group so we ordered a bunch of them and then cut them up to share. Great spot for breakfast or a snack with your coffee! read more

Great Doughnuts and coffee, a must stop in the heart of Nashville. Cozy atmosphere and great selection.

We have a Parlor Donuts in our home state that is absolutely fantastic. We always make a point to go to that one when we are traveling in the area. We were excited to see one in Nashville, but it totally fell flat. Walked in around 10am to hardly any donuts available to choose from. The appearance was lacking. No seating available for us. [very limited] Staff were very lackluster / borderline rude. We had to stand/ sit outside and manage a box of donuts for 3 little kids. Total mess for all of us. Coffee wasn't great and regretted money spent here. read more

This donut shop was a quick walk from our hotel and we're so glad we made it here on our last day! We came here in the morning and ordered the blueberry hill and strawberry shortcake donuts. We also had a matcha latte and a coconut ice coffee. These donuts were fresh and they even had doggie donuts, which we regret not buying for our pup. Service was good and ambiance was clean with a couple tables and chairs. They have a wide array of options and you will definitely not be disappointed. I wish I stopped by sooner so I could try more flavors. read more

When I was checking out must-try foods in Nashville, Parlor and Five Daughters came up. So what must the self-proclaimed foodie do? Grab both and do a taste test at the park, of course! It wasn't too busy on a Sunday morning, so I didn't have long to wait. I grabbed the raspberry pistachio and sandy beach (they said it was supposed to be similar to a cinnamon roll). I found the interior layers to be so unique! The dough was so airy and delicious. The flavor of the raspberry pistachio was so bright and was my favorite of them all. read more

Visited during our trip to Nashville and it was highly recommended by most of our research before the trip. We immediately knew it was a hot spot when we walked in and they only had two donuts left in the display case. We said "what the heck" and bought the last two. The young man working was very nice and welcoming and the shop was surprisingly smaller than we thought.they had a couple of tables to sit and enjoy your donuts. But overall the donuts were so delicious. We recently went to five daughters bakery as well and to be honest, we loved Parlor donuts more. Definitely recommend and we also recommend to go earlier in the day when they have more donuts. They go fast! read more

Food: 2/2 Service: 2/2 Ambiance: 1/1 I've had the pleasure of visiting 2 other parlor donut locations and this is one of the BEST. The donuts were fresh and yummy. I enjoyed every morsels! I was so sad when I took the last bite of my last donut!!! I'll definitely be back. read more

I'm a self-proclaimed donut connoisseur so you know I had to try this Nash favorite! Service wasn't anything special (boo!) It's a nice looking donut shop with some cool decor! No seating available. You just pickup and go. I tried their blueberry donut and it was a little too sweet for my liking. This donut parlor is a specialty donut spot, so bring your SWEET, SWEET tooth! read more

Most amazing donuts ever but understaffed considering the crowd. Management was completely unprepared for the SEC tournament and the crowd it brings. Nashville is a convention town so you think they would know. Get there early and be willing to wait in line before they run out of your favorites. Coffee is 10 times better than Starbucks. read more

The doughnuts are crazy good!! Plus, even if the line seems long, they really know what they're doing and can get it moving quickly!

If you haven't tried a cronut, go check out Parlor. There's several flavors all fresh and selling out daily. We stayed in the hotel next door for four days and I had to visit a couple times. The strawberry one was amazing. Love the military support and theme of this place. Go give them a try! P.S. they serve coffee too, which everyone was also lining up for. read more

Tried 4 different doughnuts and all were different in a good way! The coffee was good as well. This place is downtown and has limited parking, but there were definitely spots available. Even though the kitchen was closed the last time we went, the service was still good. the only thing I have to say is that the floors were kind of sticky the last time we wentin, but that wasn't worth taking a star away. read more

Get here early, they have a line out the door on the weekends and I was there by 9 AM! Highly recommend the French toast doughnut, so incredibly delicious. I tried that doughnut, a churro one and lastly blueberry. The French toast was by far the best, they are around $5 each and a decent size. I tried the mocha coffee which was great, also around $5. Can't wait to try again at my local spot in Oceanside! read more

Best doughnut I have ever had. Their "layered doughnuts" have the perfect croissant texture and the variety of flavors were spot on.

Came to Nashville and just happened to stay up the street from here. I walked in just after opening and had plenty to chose from...I opted for the French toast and maple bacon with a cappuccino. Man they are a bit sweet, but worth the sugar crash. I could only eat one and ate the other after two days and it was delish! A must do in Nashville read more
