50 Best Coffee Shops in Nashville

“great drinks, great staff, great bar.“

“As if the White Chocolate Vanilla Frappe wasn't enough, the atmosphere is pretty awesome and actually reminds me of my days in Seattle. A plethora of choices await you from the drinks to the pastries and the entrees, which I'm looking forward to trying. To top it all off, Keith is about as mellow and nice a person as can be, which makes going there an even more pleasurable experience. Take the time to get out to Donelson and find this gem, you will NOT regret it.“

“We stopped by Tempo Nashville on Nolensville Pike for breakfast/brunch and left super impressed! The food was absolutely delicious — we tried the bean and cheese quesadillas, the steak and egg tacos, and a few bites of everything because it was that good.

If you’re low-carb or have dietary restrictions, they’re super flexible — you can skip the tortillas and still get a generous, satisfying portion. Love that kind of service!

🌱 One thing that really stood out to me was how eco-friendly the place is. The plates, cutlery, even the vibe — all very sustainable and conscious. Wooden silverware, biodegradable everything. Small touches, big impact. 👏

🍴 Now for the honest part: we do NOT recommend the chips and queso. Definitely skip that one. But everything else? Chef’s kiss.

I brought my two kids — 8 and 13 — and they both enjoyed their meals (and that’s saying something). It’s casual, friendly, and quick, but still feels cool and local. We’re giving the food five stars, but the atmosphere lands at a strong four — cute and clean, but a little basic inside. Still, the staff was kind, and we’ll 100% be back.

Whether you’re hunting for breakfast tacos, brunch near Nolensville Pike, or just want good food with an eco-conscious twist, Tempo is worth the stop. ✅“

“Go check it out! Awesome coffee and more.“

“The inside of the coffee shop is great. Full of plants and nice people. Good food. Well crafted drinks.
A bit overpriced due to add ons: adding honey and almond milk to my 12oz matcha adds $3?! It would at least be less aggregious if I could get a 16oz drink there. A 12oz drink and a burrito always seems to end up being $27.

You can't really eat or drink inside. So if you eat at the establishment, you're now getting a Gallatin Pike and Trinity intersection experience. Regular near miss crashes. Heavy horn use. It's honestly more serene to eat in your car. You'd never even think to bring a laptop there and get some work done.

They would do well to add either bamboo planters, or at least a fence/shrubbery. Then additional shade would also be beneficial. Along with monthly powerwashing.“

“The service was a little bit slow (and my drink never did get refilled) but the food was delicious and it was a fun vibe.“

“We had a 15 month old and a 5 year old as well as 3 adults. Nat, Colton and Carneshia were so Great to work so hard to get us seated. The food was awesome and the service was top of the line. So folks go see Big Bad Breakfast Nashville ?????“

“Fantastic high quality chai and lattes!“

“Incredible food and probably the best service I’ve ever had. We stopped by on a trip from out of town and I already can’t wait to go back.“

“Best bagels, staff, and feel in Nashville - at both locations! Truly sweet people and fun seasonal menu items. Plenty of options that work for breakfast or lunch. Great place to get some work done, catch up with friends, or bring the family.“

“Fantastic staff. wonderful coffee. Best place to grab an expresso on hotel row.“

“This is my favorite coffee shop in Nashville. All their pastries are SO INSANELY good. I made my mom bring me their cream cheese sugar cookie after I gave birth lol. It’s a small shop so sometimes it may be a little backed up but nothing crazy? If I ever move out of east Nashville this is the spot I’ll miss the most!“

“Best pho and banh mi in Nashville!“

“I’ve come here 3 years. Only in April May or June.

Brenna was helpful and I discovered a crazy new coffee I never knew I liked. The manager is cool too. If it’s still the same one as last year, go there and talk about Star Wars

WiFi
Table space
Clean

Sweet outdoor area. Quite in the mornings

Food sometimes a bit overpriced, but still tasty“

“I love 8th and Roast. It’s my fave coffee shop in Nashville that I’ve discovered so far. I’m disappointed to discover Little Bear Latte was only a seasonal beverage because it’s the only drink I ever got there. I’m not a huge fan of the new seasonal drink. So I’m not sure what to drink there now. :( I love the cozy, relaxing atmosphere and they have a great loyalty card program. 8th and Roast is a must.“

“Fabulous coffee much nicer than most other places. And cakes well off the scale amazing“

“Hands down the best taco I’ve ever had the, #7 with brisket was unbelievably GOOD. We Will be back every trip we make to B’ham! Also, it’s really priced reasonable too!“

“The best tasting boba I've had! Love that they come up with new flavor combinations and that they are very environmentally conscious. Friendly staff. Worth it!“

“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“

“LOVED this spot. Worth the wait, you feel welcome by being able to order a drink to enjoy while you wait!! Then once you step inside and get seated, you feel cozy and ready to enjoy brunch, right next to someone else! The family size table concept is a vibe. Highly recommend!“

“NashHouse Saloon So Delicious. Julie & I Can Wait To Dance & Live Music. & Eat Too.“

“Incredible food and probably the best service I’ve ever had. We stopped by on a trip from out of town and I already can’t wait to go back.“

“Great breakfast. I would recommend this restaurant.“

“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“

“Amazing vibes! Clean and neat!“

“Love this place! The food is so good. I wished I lived closer to visit more often.“

“Delicious coffee and great, friendly service. So excited that they've opened a coffee shop in Edgehill now! will definitely be returning.“

“I had the pleasure of ordering from here through Postmates. I had the ham and cheese croissant and the Santa coffee (peppermint mocha) with almond milk. the croissant was buttery, flaky and delicious! the coffee was delicious and very even flavored. will definitely be going to see them in person and ordering again!“

“This is a spot you want to keep going back to. Very aesthetic, clean, and a super friendly staff. I’ve always gotten cold brew here, so I’m eager to go back and get a hot coffee.
There’s a Photo Booth! Clothing and cute retail items! Space to sit and work upstairs, too.
I just love it when you can walk into an establishment and feel like they’re happy you came.
The only bummer is the last time my mom and I stopped in on a Tuesday morning (around 9:30) and they had no food ?
So if you’re looking for a bite to eat, might want to call ahead first.“

“Great little shop with good food and drink and a wonderful music venue.“

“Best south of town coffee, cute af and perfect for a outdoor picnic.“

“Great Service Great Coffee Great Food Friendly Staff... 5th“

“Excellent espresso drinks. Had a latte that was naturally sweet and creamy, with beans that clearly have an origin that is distinctive. Nice spot to drink, with plentiful indoor and outdoor tables. My latte was a bit pricey, at $6.56 for a large (even comparing to my not-cheap home coffee shops in the upper west side of NYC) but the value is there for a cup that someone clearly cared about.“

“Got their bagel egg and cheese, subbed micro greens and croissant ($6) and oh wow- delicious!! Also had matcha latte with oat milk and drank it all up in record time. The cafe is impeccably designed with wonderful vibes. I hope they do amazing because they're such a treat. Prices aren't too bad either!

Only thing is maybe avoid the vegan banana bread munchies, it was dry and stale - $6“

“amazing pastries made from scratch“

“Celebrating anniversary number 41. With burrito and myan mocha!“

“Delicious coffee, super healthy and yummy smoothies! Staff is very nice! A little pricey, but totally worth it for the quality ingredients 👌
Parking is definitely a challenge, but if you are staying in the area I would suggest stopping in! ☺️“

“Great Spot ,highly recommend Nashville Coffee.
I had a delicious vanilla latte, smooth, rich, and just the right amount of sweetness. Parking was super easy, which is always a plus. The customer service was excellent, friendly, quick, and made me feel right at home. Definitely a go to spot for great coffee whilst visiting in Nashville.“

“The coffee is so good. I love the classic espresso, I make cold coffee out of it and it is the best!“

“Flora and Fauna is more than just a coffee shop; it's a gem in the heart of East Nashville. Walking in, you're immediately greeted by a service staff that makes you feel like family. The creativity in their drinks menu is a delightful surprise every visit, offering a perfect blend of classic and innovative choices. And let's talk about the pancakes – they are a must-try! Fluffy, flavorful, and simply irresistible, they're worth indulging in any day of the week. This place is a testament to what makes East Nashville's community so special. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a top-notch brunch experience!“

“Great atmosphere and friendly. The coffee is very good.“

“Love this place 🫶🏻location is nestled right in a cool quaint shopping district. Outdoor seating available too perfect for these warm Spring days“

“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 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.“

“Celebrating anniversary number 41. With burrito and myan mocha!“

“Amazing and courteous staff, great atmosphere, and delicious coffee. This is my favorite coffee shop in Nashville!“

“Caught our attention while visiting Nashville and ended up being one of our favorite stops! Super cute place, crazy creativity and marketing. Great place to meet friends and hang out. Cereal??? I mean, ya…but so much more! Met the owner and she was so delightful as well. Can’t wait to see this catch on and be franchised. Every detail was just perfection!“

“Service with a smile our care broke down as well in drive thru the came out and pushed us to a parking spot and tried their best to help us get it started definitely 5 🌟“

“Quaint music venue , Great place for incoming artists.“

“The food and servers are excellent. Wait time is minimal at the Tanger Outlet location.“
