    Ordered the big box of donuts for my office and they were quickly made fresh and beautifully packaged! Great customer service! Now, the donuts are DELICIOUS! I am not a huge fan of donuts because they always taste old, or they're very thick or have an after taste but these were perfect! Melt in your mouth and they're perfectly bite sized!

    These Tiny Little Donuts are amazing!! They're freshly fried and have the crisp of a beignet. It's the perfect treat after strolling Bicentennial Park. We 100% will be back to try other flavors!

    Piping hot tiny donuts made in an Air Streamer? Yes, please! We were greeted by smells of all things donut, coffee and it was hands down excellent! Flavorful, light and delicious!

    Many tiny little donuts

    The donuts are fresh as can be and super tasty. The staff is friendly. The airstream vibe is super cool with outdoor picnic tables and unbrellas. Perfect for a grab n go snack but can also order a big box for the office or a party. Be sure to grab a latte from the neighboring coffee trailer. Best donuts in Franklin!

    Wanted to bring donuts to a supplier while in the area for work. Stumbled upon the trailer and was pleasantly surprised by the cute donuts and taste. Staff was very nice as well

    I'm not a TN local, but when I drive up to visit family we always want to visit Tiny Little Donuts! The airstream trailer that holds the shop is super cute, aesthetic, and well decorated. A chalk board tells you what flavors are available. We got the plain glazed and the chocolate glazed donuts. They are fried right in front of you and served hot with little forks to eat it with. They were so warm and sweet and perfect to share with multiple people or children. This is one of my favorite places to visit! Everyone running the shop is so nice and it makes for an unforgettable experience.

    If you think fresh, hot Krispy Kreme donuts melt in your mouth, you should try these mini-donuts hot off the press! Oh my goodness! Order the TLD Generous Dozen and you'll be treated to about 16 tiny little gems of fried dough, soft and airy with an almost crisp exterior that disappears in your mouth. They are absolutely warm and delicious throughout the day! Based on my visits, it seems like you ONLY get them fresh, never pre-made, which is pretty freakin' awesome! I went with the lemon glazed, the perfect citrusy drizzle without being overwhelming. I'll have to come back a third time and try the cinnamon sugar. They also have dark chocolate glazed, powdered sugar, plain glazed, or completely naked.

    What a perfect idea for a donut shop. This cute little airstream is located on a tiny strip of grass right outside of a shopping mall. They have multiple workers inside whipping up piping hot tiny little donuts. We ordered and were out of the airstream within a minute or two, super fast and friendly. The donuts: These little guys were delicious and my pumpkin ones blew me away. I liked the lemon we got as well, but be prepared for some tartness if you do plan on getting some. I think the total was $15 for 30 or so mini donuts. A bit pricy but its a fun experience and your helping a small business at the same time so whats not to love!?

    These cute little donuts are so DELICIOUS YOU CAN TASTE THE LOVE AND THE TASTE OF HOMEMADE. I had my donuts with cinnamon and sugar it brought me back to my Mexican roots of churros and the donuts guy coming to my neighbor with sugar/cinnamon donuts to our front door. Also, the ladies here are so nice this place is 10/10

    Tiny Little Donuts with maple glaze and rainbow sprinkles.

    Amazing donuts! Tiny but mighty! So, so yummy. I desperately want to interrupt writing this review to go get another "generous dozen". What's "generous" about their dozen? They don't count! It will definitely be more than a dozen, and when they're all gone you'll want more. They are amazing. I am a huge fan of donuts in general, and I think these may be my favorite ever. Simple, but consistent and well done. Very friendly staff. I've tried all the flavors, and they are all good, but to me the maple glaze is the clear winner. And cinnamon sugar is my second favorite. But I wouldn't turn down any flavor. Note that their coffee is "just" Nespresso, but Southerner's Coffee just across the parking lot has great coffee served by great people. Win-win!

    MOVED FROM GRASSLAND TO ALMOST DOWNTOWN FRANKLIN I love their Grassland location! It was a little much to park when it was busy and to get out with traffic and the light right there, but totally worth it. I unfortunately have not been since they set up shop in route to downtown Franklin. It's not as convenient as a location for me and that area is super congested especially during "normal" travel times. These guys are FAST on their social media accounts to answer questions, or speak to any input. I love when company owners are involved. It doesn't seem like there is much more I can offer information wise, that hasn't already been mentioned, so please excuse the repeat details. COST: I'm not sure if this is accurate, correct me if I'm wrong. $6 for 12 mini-donuts $10 for 24 mini-donuts $20 for 100 mini-donuts They are so fresh!! BEST WHEN WARM, heck, eat them in the car on the way home, that's the best way. FLAVORS: - Powdered sugar - Cinnamon sugar - Glazed - Plain - Lemon Glazed The first time I went I tried the top 3 options and the glazed tasted weird. Almost like metal a little bit. The next time I went they were offering the lemon glazed, and I got all 4 (both glazed, and both sugars) and they were so good. No metal flavor for the regular glazed ones, not sure what that was about. The lemon glazed was seriously such a great addition!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

    This little place is amazing. I discovered this gem about 2 years ago and I absolutely love it. The tiny donuts are cooked to perfection and always hot and fresh. The selection of toppings they have from timeless glaze, chocolate, cinnamon and more make it hard to decide what to get until you are at the counter to place your order. However my fav is the timeless glaze. The service is always consistently great and you feel like you're ordering from someone's kitchen rather than a business. And the presentation is totally fitting the name and concept. Even though it's small in size it is not at all small in their delivery. I've told everyone to visit when they are in the area.

    Coffee & donuts for Mother's Day! A perfect way to start the day~
    Cissy W.

    Went back to Tiny Little Donuts this morning for Mother's Day. This time in their new Franklin location. Seems like a great location with plenty of parking! Being Mother's Day they were giving free coffees for Moms (Frothy Monkey coffee) which was nice. The coffee was fresh and super hot! My kids and I each got a box so we could pick our "toppings". I chose the Cinnamon Sugar and was not disappointed. They had a couple of young ladies singing and playing guitar on the porch area which was a nice touch, not sure if that was just Mother's Day or normal on the weekends. Again the staff is very friendly and serves the donuts quickly. I recommend you sit at one of the outdoor tables and enjoy them there when they are at their most fresh!

From the moment you pull up, it's pure country charm -- the rustic copper-toned trailer with its cute wreaths, string lights, and "The Steel Pony" signage instantly makes you smile. It feels like stepping into a storybook scene surrounded by beautiful farmland. The menu is fantastic! We grabbed some delicious coffee drinks that were perfectly crafted and full of rich flavor. They also offer specialized lemonades and other refreshing, sweet soda options that are perfect for a warm day. Everything tasted fresh and high-quality -- you can tell they take pride in what they serve. The service was just as wonderful. A sweet teenage girl helped us with the friendliest smile and great recommendations. She made the whole experience feel warm and welcoming, like visiting a neighbor rather than just grabbing a drink. After ordering, we settled into the relaxing chairs nearby, sipped our drinks, and just soaked in the peaceful views of the rolling fields and greenery. It's the perfect spot to unwind, chat, or simply enjoy a quiet moment in nature. If you're anywhere near Leiper's Fork, do yourself a favor and stop by The Steel Pony. Unique, delicious, and utterly charming -- we'll definitely be back! Highly recommend for coffee lovers and anyone looking for a lovely little escape.

    Hogwood BBQ - The Colorado Sandwich with 1 Side(Mac n cheese) - YUMMY!

    Stopped into Hogwood BBQ in Franklin for dinner after a long, exhausting day and it absolutely hit…read morethe spot. I went with the Hogwood Sampler which comes with chicken, sausage, ribs, brisket, and pulled pork, plus mac-n-cheese on the side. All in it was $27.89 plus tax, which feels like pretty fair market value for the amount and quality of food you're getting. The food itself was incredible. Way too many barbecue places lean way too hard on sauce to do the heavy lifting. That is not the case here. Every single meat had deep, legit smoky flavor on its own and honestly didn't even need sauce. That said, the sauces were also excellent. The Alabama white paired perfectly with the chicken, and the spicy tomato-based red sauce had a great kick without overpowering anything. Drink selection was another pleasant surprise. They've got Coke products and Tractor Organic Beverages. I mixed their unsweet tea with the Tractor mango and made myself a mango tea that worked way better than it had any right to. If I had to nitpick, the side selection is a little limited for my personal taste. I'm always hoping for fries or hush puppies, though to be fair that's not uncommon for BBQ joints around here. I also ran into a sticky spot on the table that clearly hadn't been fully wiped down from a previous guest. That said, the food was good enough that it still lands as a five-star experience for me. Hogwood BBQ is an excellent choice if you're looking for seriously good barbecue in Franklin.

    Wanted to love. Hoped I'd love it. I didn't love it. Actually, I didn't even like it…read more Went in hungry around 2:00. It's a counter service joint; you walk up, order, and then someone runs the food to your table. First off, they asked for a point of service tip; that bugs me when I'm ordering my own food at the counter and fetching my own drinks. The menu is fairly standard for a southern BBA joint; brisket, pulled pork, ribs, turkey, chicken. I am generally suspicious of any place that offers chopped brisket. Brisket is meant to be sliced and enjoyed as a slab of meat, not as a pile of hash. So, the chopped brisket sandwich was out for me. I asked if the brisket platter would be served as slices, and they assured me it was, so I ordered brisket with two sides. They recommended the beans and the Mac 'n cheese, so that's what I went with. They also asked me if I wanted the meat lean, marbled, or half and half; I took that as a good sign, and asked for marbled. They food came out in about 5 mins; just enough time for me to head to the soda fountain and fill my own cup. Maybe they should tip me? On the plus side, the portions were pretty large. I'm guessing that the served at least 6-8 ounces of brisket, and the individual sides were pretty large as well. On the other hand, whoever sliced the brisket simply didn't know what they were doing. They sliced it WITH the grain, producing slices full of stringy meat. Stringy meat that was hard to cut with the plastic cutlery provided. I find it hard to believe that anyone who regularly serves BBQ brisket doesn't know to cut the meat against the grain. The meat appeared to feature a nice bark; however, on further exploration, a) the bark was so tough that it couldn't be cut as all with the plastic cutlery, and b) when I tore into it with my fingers and ate a piece, it had no taste. Not even a basic Texas salt and pepper rub could be detected. A large portion of tasteless, poorly cut meat does no one any favors. The beans were a little underdone; IMHO, that's far better than mushy, overcooked beans. However, they, too, had no flavor. No spice, nada. The mac and cheese was shells in a white cheese sauce. Strike 3; zero flavor for the sauce. I don't know how you can make cheese sauce without flavor, but they managed to do so. I have never, ever thrown as much food away at a a BBQ joint than I did today. What a shame. Not recommended, not even a little bit. Try Martin's or Edley's; if you prefer a chain, Mission BBQ will do you much better than Hogwood.
