23 Best Donuts in Nashville

“My first time going into Shipleys was a day to remember. Now I’m always going the people here are so kind . Pleasant and thoughtful each time I walk in. I wasn’t having the best day but before I left I encountered a new friend who asked for a picture. She made my day turn around just that short time. Whenever I’m In Nashville I’ll always stop and enjoy fresh baked, delicious 😋 donuts 🍩 and other treats from them . Stop by whenever your in town you won’t regret I promise..“

“This is our favorite donut shop. Everything we have tried is delicious, and we have tried almost everything they make. Go see them!“

“I've been from Tacoma to Tokyo and these are some of the best pastries I've ever had in my life. 5 STARS! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“All their donuts are soooo good!! You can't leave Nashville without stopping at Five Daughters Donuts‼️❤️“

“Wonderful donuts!! Light and fluffy, delicious. ❤️“

“I love it all. The Donut Den is an adorable, cleverly styled, gathering place with the ambiance of an old school diner! Owner, Dr. Fox, is the kindest man in all the land. His love for our community is baked into everything he, and now his son, put in their beautiful colorful cases. The Apple fritter is amazing🤩 Children seem to favor the sprinkles. But, the glazed donuts and donut holes are my fav. The team behind the counter is fun, and welcoming, contributing to this important Green Hills institution❣️“

“so so good! the doughnuts are so cute and yummy! it’s so affordable and nice employees!!“

“We visited in Sarasota, Fl. Such a cute shop with SO many yummy doughnuts and coffee!! It's like the crumble cookie of doughnuts!“

“I ordered the seasonal apple pie layer doughnut, and also a cinnamon sugar mini. The apple pie doughnut was epic! I would highly recommend. There were so many different varieties of donuts to choose from. It was really hard to decide. The atmosphere was cute. The service was outstanding.“

“Let me start off by saying that atmosphere and great food can be hard to come by in Nashville. It's usually one or the other but HERO really takes the cake. From Autumn making the best shakes in town to Jay running the show, this was an absolutely wonderful experience. Please come out and support them in their quest to make Nashville food great!

Parking: You can get a code inside of the restaurant for free parking.“

“A fav spot in East nashville“

“First: I’m extremely picky about my lattes. I am sensitive to overcooked (burnt taste) beans and undercooked (sour taste) beans. I have gone here repeatedly for iced lattes and they have always provided the perfect texture and balance. They are by far (and I don’t say this lightly) providing the BEST espresso in Nashville. Second: What truly makes this cafe great is that it’s the only cafe in town that makes you feel like you’re wanted. All of these cafes built in the last 20 years are hard, cold and sterile. If you’re younger than 40, you probably don’t even remember that cafes used to be warm, social, inviting and a home for many people. New cafes are so uninviting and I feel it’s done on purpose to get you to leave so more customers come in. But the Daily Grind? It’s homey, has couches, the walls are filled with all sorts of crafty love and plants and there’s a poster on the front that lets you know this is a SAFE space for all. It’s reminiscent of the old days when you had warm social spaces where you could spend hours every day with friends playing games, drawing, talking and no one glued to their phones. I hope this cafe gets to expand and provide even more of this nostalgic homey feel and bring that needed community experience back to Nashville. Third: GREAT food and customer service on top of all of the above“

“They only have the drive thru option, which sucked as a person who likes to look at my donut options, but then she made my donut toppings fresh when I ordered, so i suppose it was ok. Friendly cashier and under $3 for 2 donuts is unheard of these days.“

“It has been 3 years since I’ve had 5 daughters doughnuts since I happened upon them by chance the last time we visited Nashville. And ever since that first bite of the King Kong I’ve never stopped thinking about them. Every person who asks me about places to go to in Nashville I tell them to come here first and as many times as they can during their trip as the doughnuts are THAT good. Even my Lyft driver was envious he was dropping me off here. This site is a bit smaller but the quality is not diminished at all. I just tired the February seasonal Tiramisu and it was perfect! Espresso and chocolate dusted exterior and this pillowy airy chew with a rich cream inside. I don’t know how they do it but it’s always the best!“

“The food is stupid good. Except the grits they were blah. Eat here you won't be disappointed“

“I've been from Tacoma to Tokyo and these are some of the best pastries I've ever had in my life. 5 STARS! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“This place was a surprising sight on my flight back from Nashville. It was a welcome change from all the Starbucks and Dunkin Donuts in every airport. The atmosphere was really cool and the donuts were fresh and super tasty. So many choices and great merch!“

“Hot light was on,, we had to stop! This location always on point“

“Great service. The manager is very nice. I would definitely stop there again if I’m ever In Nashville.“

“I’m a true Dunkin DunkieJunkie! No matter what Dunkin in the U. S. I’ve visited, I’ve received great, friendly service. I can expect the food and drinks to be the same, and they are. This visit was unique that the store had their own Doughnut Swing! That was truly cool, and I had to sit back, relax a sec while sipping my iced caramel macchiato with an extra shot of espresso.“

“I had a late order (30 minutes before closing) of drinks and donuts but, wasn’t sure what assortment of donuts were on hand. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The ultimate plus, how fresh the donuts tasted and my favorite flavor blueberry was not showing online but, there were plenty of them as munchkins in the case. Even spending a little more, I was very pleased. Highly recommend this location to everyone! I was a resident here 28 years and recently moved to NC and this by far has been the best Dunkin’ experience!“

“Great place and even better coffee. Missy was nice and helped us pick out something we loved! I wasn’t sure what I wanted going in, but she made sure I had something I would order again next time by the time I came out! I’ll definitely be going back!“
