    I love Frothy and my food and coffee were delicious. I usually never have any issues with the food or drinks here. I will say the service was an odd experience today. I dined in on my own and the host sat me but then came back to take my order. Normally that's not a big deal, however this time it felt more like I was being rushed to order even though the server who took my drink order was okay with giving me some time to decide. He did this with a few tables near me so it was something I noticed. It was lunch time but this location wasn't as busy as I thought when I went in and was seated. Normally this is a good coffeeshop off the beaten path of downtown and with a full menu is such a plus!

    While staying in Nashville I came in here for breakfast one morning... It was dead when I got there, around 7:30AM on a weekday, but service was friendly and quick. The place is large, with plenty of seating and the menu looked decent. I opted for their Loaded Biscuits & Chorizo Gravy which was quick to come out. I wanted my eggs scrambled, and they were. The dish was actually somewhat cool, which was odd. The sausage/chorizo gravy had a nice look and texture, but was the main thing that was cool - it should never be cool! That tells me they simply re-heated something that was pre-made. The rest of the dish was good and flavorful. The coffee was good. I'll bet if I came a little later in the morning, the food would have been fresher, hotter, and tastier. But, unfortunately, you only get one chance to make a good first impression.

    We stopped here for breakfast before being tourists and diving into Broadway. It was the perfect start to our morning! First of all tremendous service. Special shout out to Andy. He went above and beyond to ensure we were having a good experience, enjoyed our food, and were always taken care of. We had their lattes. One of us had the log cabin and the other one had the chai but all of it was tasty. The biscuits and gravy was super flavorful and filling so get that if you want a bigger plate. The eggs bacon and cheese bagel was perfect for a not too heavy breakfast but it was tasty! All in all a lovely place with lovely service and I'd highly recommend! There are plenty of seats here and we went on a Sunday at 9:30ish and didn't have to wait. We came from our hotel so I can't comment on parking.

    Stopped by for breakfast on a Saturday morning around 10. Place wasn't busy. Got seated pretty quickly but after that the staff seemed to move at their own pace. Which was very slow. Our server should have checked on us more frequently. We ordered French toast and an omelet. Both were only okay. The bacon in my omelet was very good but the eggs didn't have a very good flavor. The bread for the french toast was too thick in my opinion. It also had an overpowering amount of cinnamon. I wouldn't go back.

    This place is a vibe and I give it two thumbs up! Today is my last day in Nashville for work and my colleagues and I decided to try Frothy Monkey in downtown for lunch. Upon entry, we were warmly greeted by the host and seated at a nice booth. Our waiter came over to welcome us and offer drink and food options. He was incredibly friendly and suggested the arugula salad with salmon. I ordered the salad and it was delicious. The salmon was cooked perfectly and the balsamic dressing was a hit! Everyone enjoyed their food and was really happy. The ambience is cute, the staff are pleasant and the food is delicious.

    First - Love the name. Great location on a cute side street, it was pleasant before we walked in. Big storefront windows allow in a ton of natural light. Our server was so fun. He was friendly and helpful. He made great suggestions and took great care of us. We loved our sandwiches. They were fresh and filling. The vinaigrette on the salad was so good I am still thinking about it. My friend's latte was described as perfect. If I lived in Nashville, I would be a regular at Frothy Monkey.

    Frothy monkey - Water not iced - Menu is meh - Nice music - lgbtq friendly - Decor is mid - Seats are uncomfy - Waitress is nice, didn't catch name but she's short and possibly Asian? - Biscuit boards were yum - Hot chocolate is mid - Bagels came fast, look good - bagels were good, kind of triggered my food texture sensory issues but I was too hungry to care. Still tasted good - Bathrooms are unisex one person only bathrooms, which is nice if you need to take a dump - one bathroom has a ceiling panel missing, which is kind of creepy but it's clean, and cute so..not a problem? - you can take your drinks to go - play good music - 9.5/10 will come back someday

    I ate at Frothy Monkey twice. I had wonderful oat milk cappuccino, and a regular coffee. I also had a salad and an omelette. The food is fresh and delicious. The staff are kind and helpful. The atmosphere is bright, cheerful, and relaxing.

    This two story brunch spot is tucked away downtown and it is so adorable. Downstairs were mostly tables for four or more and there were counters/bar top to sit at. I went and sat upstairs and it was like a loft vibe. It was super cute and I got to look outside. It was a rainy day, so it was peaceful. I got the Havana latte with almond milk. It was delicious and a hint of sweetness to it. The sandwich itself was simple yet filling. Eggs can make or break a simple breakfast sandwich and I definitely enjoyed this one. Don't forget the frothy monkey hot sauce! If I could buy it and take it on my carry on, I would. I wonder if they ship the sauce because it was to die for. Overall, service was amazing. Can't complain about the food. I had a great time grabbing breakfast before my next stop in this city.

    Just happened to walk by this place while looking for a place to eat. We're staying close by and saw it while driving by. It's a nice restaurant and serves coffee, teas and food. The service staff were very nice. The food was good and probably the healthiest we ate all the time in Nashville. Lisa had a omelette and I had the smash burger. The coffee was good. The ambiance was very laid back and has a rustic feeling inside. There's a second floor looking out to the street. I'm not sure about parking because we walked from our hotel.

    Frothy Monkey is a Nashville staple, famous for quality coffee. I've been here on several occasions and enjoyed the coffee, even considered buying their flavored coffee syrup merch as gifts. Though this location is the most convenient to where I've lived, the hours are not always (whereas other locations are open for dinner and into the evening). Unfortunately, the ambience here hasn't felt warm or welcoming on my recent visits, either. The baristas were kind and talented, but the atmosphere beyond the counter felt cold. I specifically chose to come here with my boyfriend one winter weekend, looking to sit and relax over two lattes, only to essentially get yelled at when waiting near the counter for our drinks (not knowing that was an issue, as others had done so) and then again when starting to head upstairs, not knowing it was closed. Discouraged, we took our drinks to-go; although the restaurant wasn't very busy, it did not feel like there was anywhere we could sit and enjoy our drinks. On my first visit here, years ago, I remember sitting in the cozy coffee shop environment with my mom, enjoying our hot beverages. These later experiences were hopefully a fluke, but I'm wary to come here for anything more than takeout, lately.

    Absolutely love this place! This is a great coffee in the Nashville area. This is a small little restaurant but has a great breakfast/brunch menu. It is absolutely delicious and they cater to all dietary preferences. You'll be sure to find something. The service is also fantastic and very attentive. Definitely a must try and we will return again.

    It's a short walk from our place to downtown. We started with the biscuits, and the combination of jam and butter was perfect. We tried Lauren's salad, and the dressing and walnuts were wonderful. I also got the Caprese sandwich on a bagel instead of a roll. It was very nice, and we will definitely be back.

They have started doing a little better about having outlet options, but mainly at those tall, long skinny tables.

The other semi complaint I have is that they close early. 3 pm is early when you want to try and work. Drinks are good. I don't drink a ton of coffee these days, but what I've had there was good. I get either their chai or matcha. Both of those I enjoy! I had a sandwich there recently. I wanted to roll my eyes at the price truthfully. However, when it came.. WOAH. It was GIANT.

There was a line when we arrived, but it wasn't so bad. It moved by pretty quickly. While in line, you bypass all the pastries displayed behind the glass and they looked beautiful! Everything looked amazing. I ended up ordering the Twice Baked Croissant and the Fried Chicken Breakfast Sandwich. The Twice Baked Croissant was just incredible. It had pistachios on top, a pistachio cream inside, and also a cherry or raspberry jam inside too. I love pistachios, and the pistachio cream inside was so light, creamy, delicate, but flavorful. I absolutely loved all the different textures. The croissant was airy and fluffy inside, and the outside had a nice flaky exterior. And the fruit jam inside complemented the pistachio cream very well, it added a nice sweetness that blended well with the cream. For me, it tied the whole thing together. I will definitely be thinking of this pastry when I think of pistachio croissants. And for the Fried Chicken Breakfast Sandwich? Wow. I didn't know what to expect, but it was much larger than I anticipated. It was tall, like when I was bringing it to the table the top part of the bun almost fell off my plate because it had height. The fried chicken piece was great: juicy and had a nice golden color. It was crispy and also quite large for a chicken piece.. All the components about it were executed well: the fried chicken, the coleslaw! (i'm a coleslaw fanatic), and the sauce inside the sandwich was wonderful. Also last but not least, the fried egg too? Wow. I love a good runny egg. I'm not exaggerating, I was drenching the pieces of my sandwich in the sauce on my plate. It was just that good. Genuinely, I couldn't believe I finished that sandwich because it was very filling and that fried chicken piece was huge! Service was fast and friendly, I liked interacting with them. It is pretty small inside and we came on a weekend so it was busy and packed. We were lucky to snag a small table but it was difficult to find seating when we got our food. All in all, I'm so happy we came here. Yes it is a little pricey, but you get what you pay for. The quality is clearly there and showed up through everything we got. I had such a memorable time, thank you for taking care of us!
