15 Best Bakeries in Franklin

“Amazing art work highly recommended!!!! She knocked it out of the park!“

“Absolutely perfect! After my then-fiancee and I selected out cake flavor, I only had to share 2 reference photos with Nicole and Madison absolutely nailed it. This was the best tasting wedding cake both my husband and I had ever had and our family and friends agreed. I think we will use them at our reception on our anniversary and any other time we are in need of desserts. Madison understood the assignment and delivered. I have no notes at all. Just excited to use this shop again for future events.“

“This place was great! Matt was so kind and made a raw sugar syrup on the spot for me for my matcha. He was so knowledgeable and patient when I asked a bunch of questions about the drinks and ingredients in the syrups.
Highly recommend checking this place out.“

“Amazing bakery and a beautiful location!“

“Oh my !!!! I would fly to Nashville just for these donuts! The "Vanilla Creme" as pictured on the page is 100 layers of pure decadence! 🤍🩷🤍“

“The folks here were extremely accommodating to our emergency need for a medium-sized venue for our HS class reunion we held recently. We were offered a wide variety of food options and beverages and full access to their attached Wine & Spirits shop for craft beers, wines and other liquors by the bottle. I highly recommend this place for wedding showers, private parties, or other social events! Manager Rusty was amazingly helpful in planning, setting up and executing the entire package.“

“Solid Five Stars, all day This wonderful crew of lovely ladies put the Keibler Elves to shame. Beautiful cookies, wonderfully constructed and served in a hype little kitchen. The Strawberry Biscoff I had today was amazing and topped on-the-spot. As always with the Crumbl name, the app ordering and pick up went smooth and perfect. Will definitely be back next time I need a sugar fix.“

“Merridee’s Breadbasket is an absolute gem in the heart of Franklin. I came here with my dad and my daughter, and it turned into one of those simple, perfect mornings you don’t forget. The atmosphere is cozy, welcoming, and full of local charm — brick walls, warm lighting, and that Southern small-town comfort you hope for but rarely find.

The food was phenomenal. I had the quiche and it was spot-on — flavorful, fresh, and baked just right. The bacon was thick, perfectly crisp, and full of flavor. Their coffee was exactly what you want to start your day with. My daughter loved every minute here, and the staff was kind and patient with families.

If you’re in Franklin — whether you’re local or visiting — Merridee’s is a must. It’s the kind of place where great food meets genuine heart. We’ll be back for sure.“

“I love the red velvet and lemon cakes.“

“She created the MOST BEAUTIFUL cookies for our office’s event and I’m thrilled with how they turned out!! I just gave her a few ideas for the design and she knocked it out of the park. I will be using her for many future events!“

“We love the authentic food and friendly owners. Carne Asada tacos and my go to every time.“

“amazing service! YUMMY food! loved the iced coffee and homemade poptarts!“

“The best truck in TN!
Ive been in TN for 6 years now, I have eaten tons of Mexican food locations. This truck by far has the best pastor meat I’ve had here. I’m from south texas and a big boy so I know Mexican food. This place is the best here!“

“I can't thank the Aiken team enough! My husband deployed shortly before our son's birthday and they truly went above and beyond to make him feel special! The cake is amazing and the hospitality is unmatched! Thank you girls so much. For your kindness. From all of us thank you. You made a bitter sweet day just a bit more sweet than bitter“
