The shop is cutesy with pink walls and a little social media worthy photo op on one of the walls. Lines are hit or miss. I either walk by and nobody is there or it's a long line. I can't say service at this location has ever been noteworthy. It's more just moving people through the line. They offer mini and regular sized donuts. I love, love, love that they offer mini donuts. I've never been a big fan of their donuts, but the winter donuts may have changed my mind. My favorites have been Sugar Cookie and Gingerbread Latte. I enjoyed the buttery, flaky layers. I also grabbed an iced sugar cookie and that was delicious. For drinks they offer coffees and a case with sparkling waters, juice, and canned coffee. Five Daughters is worth a try if you find yourself near a location.

This is not my first rodeo here, thankfully but I can confirm there's no way to choose a favorite. Literally no way! This time I got stuffed chocolate chip which is stuffed with a brownie btw! You read that correctly and it was decadent omg!! Literally all of it was so flavorful and baked to absolute perfection! I also ended up with the seasonal cherry, it was so good I forgot the full name of it, as I try to wipe away drool. The crumble texture divine. Again, so flavorful. Once I started in on both of these I couldn't control myself and ate them both entirely. I left none left for my husband to try, sorry babe! The shop is tiny and cute and the staff is super friendly. I love this spot! Such a super special gem in our downtown Franklin! It's a must!

After grabbing food around the corner, we decided to treat ourselves to something sweet. We noticed…read morethis local hole-in-the-wall tucked in on a side street under the shade of mature trees. The store inside is small, so only a few customers can be inside at once. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted with a smile by Sam. There was a display case full of yummy cookies of different varieties -- chocolate chip, stuffed chocolate chip (brownie inside), salted peanut butter cup, s'mores, brownie, sprinkles, oatmeal raisin, and vegan chocolate chip. They offer full-size cookies in singles, six pack, or a dozen or mini cookies in a cup, small box or big box. Whitney's also sells a small selection of drinks -- milk, sparkling water, chilled coffee, or regular water. We ordered a chocolate chip and a salted peanut butter. At $5 a cookie, this isn't an everyday indulgence, but the cookies were large enough to share. And they were really delicious, especially when they were heated up and the chocolate chips melted.

I LOVE a good bakery and I am kinda spoiled by over 30 years in San Francisco, where there is a great one every few blocks. I just found all the photos on my phone and realized I had not reviewed this place from last month's mini vacation. And honestly I know we got like 4 things for 4 of us to take home and snack on for the next day or so, but I don;t recall all the things we got EXCEPT for the white almond frosted cake(slice, but in a round shape). Everyone agree it was the one to beat, and not to take the crown, but it was the one that I chose. This reminds me that I need to find all the bakeries near me now that do "cake tasting" boxes and just treat myself every once in a while!!

This is the BEST bubble tea in Nashville- hands down!…read more Sweet Dreams Bakery and Bubble Tea is a small family owned establishment. It's hidden in the middle of some shops so it can be hard to find, but parking is plentiful. It's rather small on the inside but they have some chairs to sit outside as well. This place has some pies, soups, egg tarts, and of course, the best selling item- bubble tea! Strawberry Lemon Tea with Boba- This was the most refreshing drink for a hot summer's day. I told the owner that I wanted something fruity and she suggested this. I'm so glad that I listened to her. This was like a light strawberry lemonade with a slight taste of tea. Of course the perfectly chewy boba at the end of very sip was just the cherry on top. I had to wait a little bit for my drink and just hung out in my car while they got my order ready. They make everything from scratch so it was DEFINITELY worth the wait. I also want to note that for my lactose intolerant friends out there, they use only lactose free milk for their milk teas. For my vegan friends, they have coconut milk as a sub! I will be back soon to try more bubble tea flavors and some of their pastries as well!

The cool ambiance of the factory is left at the door as the restaurant itself portrays a pretty standard modern steakhouse vibe. It's very nice, just not what I expected given its location. Food and service were top tier. We ordered the shrimp and octopus bruschetta, which was excellent. Cool take on a classic dish and the bread it was served on top was excellent. I also had their horseradish Caesar salad - very good but was hoping for a little more 'kick' given its name. I ordered the pan seared salmon over curry - definitely the winner of the night. Perfectly cooked and the flavors were unique and had depth. Great spot for a nicer restaurant in the Franklin area!
