Stopped by for breakfast sandwiches but couldn’t resist the donuts. My mom has brought donuts home before, but this was our first time coming in ourselves and we’re so glad we did. We ordered a bagel sandwich and an iced latte, and everything was delicious. We were pleasantly surprised by how good the egg and cheese were, and the iced latte was perfectly made. It’s more of a grab and go spot, but there are two small tables inside, and it’s right in the heart of downtown Franklin with benches and gazebos outside to enjoy breakfast. Staff were also very friendly! Plus, the festive donuts are so cute. We will definitely be back. 🍩☕️

Not Just Donuts is hands down one of my favorite spots in Franklin. From the moment you walk in, the environment is welcoming, cozy, and full of genuinely friendly people — the staff truly makes you feel right at home. The food is incredible. The croissants are AMAZING, the cinnamon rolls and fritters are absolute must-tries, and the donut selection is always on point. They have the classic favorites like glazed and traditional donuts, but what really sets them apart are the rotating specialty flavors. Each week there’s something new and fun — banana split, peach cobbler, lemon blueberry, and so many more. You can tell everything is made fresh and with care. They’re also not just about donuts — their breakfast options are fantastic too. The breakfast sandwiches, breakfast burritos, and bis

This is THE best little shop. I saw it on the recommendation list for our AirBnB and had to check it out. Out of our 5 day stay we went 3 times. And the first two days were because our timing was off and they were closed. 🙈 The breakfast sandwiches are AMAZING. Fresh bagels, Fresh Beautiful Donuts, and Great Coffee!!! This place will be one of the special reasons I will return to stay in Franklin again. The owner is genuinely kind and friendly and very welcoming. Thank you!!

We love Not Just Donuts!! Get there early for first dibs on all the amazing flavors. You can’t go wrong! My favorite is the Salted Caramel, but the kids love the Oreo, Hot Chocolate, Fruity Pebbles, Blueberry Lemon…. There’s just too many great options to list. And the staff is great 😊 5stars!

I never fail to stop by Not Just Donuts in Franklin, NC, whenever I’m in town to visit family. They are quite literally the best donuts I’ve had ever anywhere on the planet! There just isn’t another donut spot anywhere I’ve been to that hits quite like this one. Local, friendly, and always delicious! Don’t miss it! 🍩🤤
