This was the last place my partner and I stopped at on our way out of Nashville. We didn’t have time to dine in but it was a pleasant wait inside while they made our drinks. They were made perfectly and fueled us up for the roadtrip ahead of us.

I recently visited this delightful coffee place and was instantly hooked by its old small downtown charm. The exposed brick walls and cozy, compact setup gave it a nostalgic, urban feel that made it a perfect escape. The light roast drip coffee was fantastic—bright, flavorful, and expertly brewed, hitting all the right notes for me.
The atmosphere was spot-on, lively enough to feel inviting but never chaotic. My only complaint was the lack of outdoor seating—there wasn’t much room to soak in the surroundings outside. I also wished they had heavy cream on hand; I love that thick, smooth texture it brings without piling on sugar. Even so, the stellar coffee and that classic downtown vibe make this a spot I’d gladly revisit.

Rudest customer service I’ve ever got at a coffee shop!! We were from out of town and they were so rude and unwelcoming. I would not recommend this coffee shop and the coffee isn’t even that good.

Normally love coming to this place. Just went in with my friend and the two baristas were at the back of the bar washing dishes and didn’t acknowledge our presence as we stood at the counter. After a few minutes we just decided to leave since they clearly didn’t want to take our orders.

Bought a sausage biscuit and the biscuit was essentially raw inside - poorly cooked. Overall flavor was mediocre. Very disappointed; won’t be back.
Wanted to love this place as the location is convenient and our coffee was delicious. However, the baristas were rude, unwelcoming, and looked as if they’d rather be anywhere else. The barista making our coffee practically slammed our drinks down with an eye roll as she angrily called out our orders. I was hoping for a better experience but this definitely doesn’t make me feel like coming back.

Got a peppermint mocha latte and a cinnamon roll. Quick service. Latte tasted as I would expect. Tried macadamia nut milk with it. Cinnamon roll was good. Recommend getting warmed up. Wonderful atmosphere and staff.

They sponsored a Juneteenth Ride in Nashville and provided samples of their cold brew which at the moment is my favorite in the area. Among other locations, they have a storefront inside Nashville International Airport (BNA). I pick up a can whenever I head out or return from a trip.

Great lattes/specialty drinks. The baristas can be rude and unwelcoming, however. If I had positive interactions with the baristas, this review would be five stars.
