50 Best Cafes in Nashville

“My wife visited here about 6 months ago and got coffee on her way to the airport and hasn’t stopped talking about it since. We’re here for New Years and she made sure we came by. I got an iced white mocha, which is better than anyone I’ve ever had anywhere else and we also shared a Biscoff cheesecake which was absolutely incredible. The staff is super friendly and the coffee is amazing, you can’t go wrong if you come check this place out.“

“I am so happy I found Two Hands. The food here is so delicious and very fresh and flavorful. The portions are pretty big. We ordered the mushroom bowl with added salmon and my boyfriend ordered the burger with fries. We wanted to come back immediately for dinner. They also have locations in Denver.“

“We had their breakfast & IT WAS AMAZING. The pancakes were hands down the best I have ever had. The staff were so nice as well. We will be back!“

“Stopped in after Brooklyn Bowl. Absolutely loved it! Frosé & Spicy Margarita were awesome! Will be back!“

“Must try! I went here for the first time to try their quiche and it did not disappoint. I hade the Quiche Lorraine and it was very flavorful, and creamy, and the crust was nice and flaky.Within the same week, unknown to me, my office had Cocorico cater an event for International Women's Day and I tried a couple samples of their baguette sandwich's---WOW! The bread was so soft on the inside, but crunchy on the outside. it was like I was back in Paris.

Parking: free parking for the first hour in the garage next to the shop“

“Loved this place a boy named Jaylen waited on us!! We loved him!!“

“Big shoutout for Day-day! Absolutely beautiful service, made sure to communicate the delays on food and even when the food came she made sure it was hot and ready! The food was great and even though it rained the patio still covered us and we were able to enjoy our time! Thank yall!“

“This is our absolute favorite place to visit when in Nashville. Our server, Destiny, is the best! Being from Eastern Europe, it just adds to the ambience of the experience. As soon as you walk into the door you are transported to Europe. The smells engulf you, as you walk by the most amazing dessert display. Do NOT pass up dessert! They have the most extensive coffee menu I have ever seen. If you’re looking for hair of the dog, you can add alcohol! We have never had anything bad here, every bite is divine! I highly recommend the Mexican hot chocolate, the avocado toast, and the rosemary potatoes (we dream of these).“

“Amazing and delicious food, service was great, unbeatable prices, food has so much flavor, seriously everything was great!!! 1000/10 recommend ⭐️“

“Great atmosphere, great food and board games. What’s not to love??“

“Everything was excellent the day I visited Thistle Farms! I first stopped at the restroom which was very clean and had offerings of their hand soap and lotion to try.
The staff were phenomenal from the cafe to the shop.
I ordered the soup of the day (tomato/basil) and the quiche. The flavors in the soup and the crunchy crust of the quiche were perfect!
I loved they offered tea time. I order the breakfast tea and it was fabulous served with milk and honey.
I fully enjoyed eating, drinking and reading by book at the cafe.
I purchased a few items in the shop.
Next time I’m in Nville, I will stop by again.“

“I love the vibes here. It’s light and airy and they have gorgeous plants, incredible employees, and a small but absolutely perfect menu. Excellent for something sweet or savory, with in-house made syrups for drinks and a wide variety of teas. Lots of patio seating and of course, the yellow table inside. There are always fresh flowers, a couple of baked goods to choose from, and they make granola you can enjoy at home. I am completely obsessed and in this place a couple times a week.“

“I stopped in for lunch at Thistle Farms and worked for a few hours while I was there. I'm not from the area, so I didn't know anything about the place. Not only was the chicken salad sandwich and pasta salad fresh and delicious, but the people were SO kind and attentive. I read more into their message, and I'm just so impressed. Give this place a try- there's so much variety on the menu they'll have something for everyone-- and there's even a little holistic shop attached with a wide variety of female forward brands and items. I will be in the area often for work, and this place will be a favorite for sure!“

“Had a family brunch on Sunday, overall very nice & enjoyable. Whipped Feta was amazing. I had the Lamb Biscuits & Gravy which was not that great... the lamb was good but the biscuits were stale and the fried egg on top was still raw when served.... I mean I like a good runny yoke but when the egg white is still clear, it's not cooked enough. I asked that it be put under a broiler for like 30 seconds to cook the egg white, it came back 10min later with a hard cooked egg. I would return but select something different from the menu.“

“The staff sets this stunning hotel apart with 5 star service. Hope was just wonderful and made our vacation extra special. All the gentlemen at the door was so very pleasant with a smile every time we approached them. We don't splurge often on luxury but we're glad we did it here! Thank you, Hermitage staff!“

“Loved this place a boy named Jaylen waited on us!! We loved him!!“

“This was a little lunch shop at the main floor of the office we were in. The service was very fast and delivered to our table. I got a chicken sandwich and fries and the fries were hot and nicely seasoned. The chicken was not overdone and hot as well. I'd eat here often if I worked out of this building more.“

“I came from Boston to Visit Nashville for the first time . And I came here for breakfast 🥞 This is my new favorite spot ! I recommend it to everyone if you ever come to Nashville! They are welcoming and their breakfast is delicious wow !! Will deff come back when I visit again!“

“I recommend Dr Omozojie good herbal treatments to get rid your pains infection etc email me dromozojieherbalcure@gmail. com or facebook page Dr omozojie herbal remedy hom“

“My ex and I dined here for breakfast in 2019, not long after we got married. This place was so stinking fun! I still talk about it 7 years later. I finally found the Facebook page so when I’m in the area I will be able to find it! Will definitely go again! We absolutely loved it! I’d like to take the kids next time! 🥚🍳☕️🥞🧇🥯🥐🤤😋“

“Fantastic high quality chai and lattes!“

“Fresh & delicious every time! 🤤“

“The smoothies are amazing“

“Fantastic high quality chai and lattes!“

“I had a Dr. appointment at St. Thomas Midtown. I hadn't had the chance to eat yet. I stopped in at The Fainting Goat Cafe, and I am so happy I did 😊. The food was fresh and delicious, but it was the pleasant employees that drew me in. I cant wait to try more of their delicious food. Please go by there and try it out. You won't be disappointed.“

“I just ran across this place while pilfering around Nashville. I got a black guy with sugar-free vanilla and it is on point! one of the best cups of coffee I've ever had will be back for more!“

“Amazing vibes! Clean and neat!“

“AMAZING food,atmosphere and service!! 10 stars!!!“

“To be honest I think everyone here giving outrageous reviews is inconsiderate. Do we not see how busy it was opening days, its still busy. If you want better service wait a month for the heat to die down. They still have a small staff, no business like this is made to deal with this much influx at a time.“

“excellent service. delicious coffee“

“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“

“I came in to town for a few days and checked out this place. I had the best service and amazing dinner. We had the BBQ wrap!“

“Loved it!!“

“Last night we had a wonderful dinner at Germantown Cafe!! We had an outstanding server, thank you Conner!! The Tenderloin Pork with the Mash potatoes and green beans was outstanding! Thank you guys for sharing the sauce recipe with me!! Tim & Kat :)“

“We drive to the mall just to eat here once every 1-2 weeks. They greet us with a smile and provide efficient service. Food is fresh, comes in large portions, and is delicious at a good price. Even with all the people who come to Opry Mills, they remember us as regulars and always say hi.“

“Great selection from the kitchen, and the Bourbon Latte was incredible. Large serving sizes, breakfast burrito was filled with several eggs and the breakfast potatoes were soft but crispy. Small tables at the cafe but there were comfortable sitting areas in the hotel lobby“

“I’m proud to live in a city that puts so much value in the arts and the Frist is the perfect example of arts and a place of ALL! Thank you for being a part of our culture!“

“Almost fell off my stool when Michael brought us our breakfast bowls! Chef Jess presided over a conglomeration of eggs, sausage, sweet potatoes, cheese and whatever else that imbued the dish with a magical flavor. And the Counter Culture coffee rounded out what is now my favorite breakfast. Yum ...“

“Great breakfast. I would recommend this restaurant.“

“Quick, convenient and consistent! I love the sandwiches and the Bella Bleu salad is my favorite! Great prices and lovely staff.“

“Destiny, Damari and Braxton took the BEST care of me. I’m currently fighting demons giving up caffeine and going into a coffee shop is… triggering. They got me something caffeine free and were so nice and kind in my time of despair. 10/10 recommend.“

“Amazing food, drinks, desserts, and coffee. Friendly staff, easy parking.“

“I went to White Bison Coffee in 1101 Long Hollow Pike, Gallatin, and entered the drive thru, nobody was there, then I went inside and the lady was not wearing her earset to take drive thru orders so she was never aware that I was in the window waiting to make my order. She refused to serve me a coffee. When I asked for coffee, she pointed to another coffee station and said, " There is coffee too." Referring to the regular gas station self served coffees. She had no name Tag, so I couldn't identify her name. But she she had blond hair and a leg casket. Terrible service. The coffee ia good, the team members need training.“

“I was pleasantly surprised to find such a great casual breakfast stop in a hotel! I had the chili egg scramble? (I can’t remember the exact name), and a matcha latte. Both were delicious and it was quick but lovely way to close out my trip to Nashville. I will return when I visit Nashville again!“
