Like many people have said already, the aesthetics and atmosphere of this coffee shop are absolutely on-point. Light and airy, comforting color scheme, great variety of plants and books that make it comfy and somehow lived-in. Even the outdoor seating is great, pathways are well-kept, and I can easily see myself coming here to study or write. The coffee was fine, although I am admittedly not a coffee snob so I can't adequately comment on that. Unfortunately the thing I was looking forward to trying the most, the food, was unavailable. Half the menu was out of stock when I came by, which was definitely disappointing. What I did end up getting (the tots and breakfast sandwich), were perfectly serviceable but pretty basic. Hopefully next time I visit they will have more food items available!

I spend a lot of time in the Nashville area for work, and I was lucky enough to happen upon Dawn Cafe during my most recent trip as I was staying in the connected hotel. Breakfast and coffee were phenomenal every morning. Both cold brew options were great, and the bites were the perfect start to the day, nice variety of items to choose from. I usually like to go out and explore different cafes and breakfast spots when traveling, but don't know that I went anywhere for breakfast or coffee this past week other than Dawn. Highly recommend, whether staying at the hotel or not. Small market and large amount of seating in the cafe were also very nice and convenient.

Loooove this place so so much!! My only complaint is that you have to pay for parking - however, that’s just the way it goes in downtown Nashville. The aesthetic is honestly flawless (think birthdays, bachelorettes, date nights, and studying!) and the wifi is good too. You have the option of sitting indoors or outdoors which is nice and there’s a perfect breeze either way. I recommend their tropical smoothie and their cinnamon roll!

There unfortunately wasn’t much that made this coffee shop good in my experience. The cappuccino I had was not good. The staff just kinda stared at us when we walked in and I didn’t feel very welcome. The only aspect that gave it a decent rating for me is if you want a nice aesthetic of a restaurant to study in and have some so-so coffee then this place is probably good for you. Was not the best experience and I’d look elsewhere if you’re finding good coffee in downtown Nashville.

Cannot say enough about the ambiance here. This is the perfect spot for hanging out with friends, doing some work, or reading a book. Amazingly comfortable and well-spaced seating options inside and outside in the shaded garden courtyard shared with Sidebar. There's even a fire pit for cooler mornings and evenings. The menu is limited but has all the basics you expect to find at a coffee shop.

Went for coffee, which was decent, but there was no choice (only a 'medium' roast available) of straight coffees! The space was nice, inside and out, and the location is convenient if you're on the south side of the convention center.

Food wasn’t very good or healthy. Out of the quiche, out of oats, bananas on display needed to be retired. Atmosphere and coffee but not much else. Breakfast sandwich was white bread, greasy, fake meat, fake cheese etc.

Friendly baristas and amazing coffee! We stopped in here every morning we stayed at the Bode. They also have a good selection of necessities/personal care items in case you need anything or forgot it at home.

I have a series on my social media accounts where I find the best coffee in Nashville, and this is def at the TOP of my list!!! From the friendly staff, delicious yet fun coffee flavors, quality food, and best of all... the cutest aesthetic ever, this is a hidden gem!! This will be my new go to coffee spot!

Nice location, decent food, but man the service was rough. The lady that took the order could not look happier. Maybe she had a bad morning, but she definitely pushed that negative vibe out to how she serves.

The coffee and chai tea were excellent. The small bites for breakfast were good, some room for improvement. Atmosphere and staff were friendly, welcoming, and wonderful. Worth a visit and will definitely return. Get the cinnamon bun!

Great little coffee shop! Found out they use stay golden coffee which is one of my local favorites. Little quieter than your typical busy coffee shop so great for working inside or in their little courtyard.

The space is awesome and the coffee is really good! I love that they have high ceilings and are very clean. I can’t wait to go back... loving their iced latte. The staff was super kind!

Super amazing turmeric coffee, great location and affordable. Management and staff make for some of the best service in town. I’ll recommend this place to everyone I meet!

Great spot - location, staff, service and menu all outstanding! So glad we wandered in!

At The Bode hotel in Nashville, I love the layout, room for people to sit and relax and not feel crowded...would love to come back and listen to a live band there.

Walked forever to arrive and be told no dogs, per the owner. Nobody on patio. Calm 8-pound dog. Told to get lost. Website misinformation is disturbing!

Michael made me his special tangerine signature latte— delicious! He was so kind and welcoming. So happy we stumbled upon this place during our visit!

Nice place for coffee (good dark roast drip) & light breakfast but it’s not easy to find as it’s in a building in the parking lot of the Bode hotel.

Loved this little cafe! The watermelon sugar tea was so refreshing! Also they sell candles and other cute little things that make good souvenirs.

Such a great chill vibe. Dirty Matcha latte , iced was on point for sure. A must visit if you are anywhere near SOBRO in Nashville …

Wrong hours listed, girl with blue eyes was super rude lol, also terrible coffee

Big thumbs down on the tumeric latte. Idk about their coffee but place has a cool vibe.

Online menu didn’t match actual menu so just got a coffee and left. Good latte though.

Nice friendly staff. Very helpful. Had free popsicles out front for customers.

Cute little coffee shop and market. The Golden Soul Turmeric Latte was good.

The hot honey chicken biscuit hit the spot and the coffee was great

Rlly bad coffee threw it out after a few sips
