I ordered 1 scoop of Cookies n' Cream and he ordered 2 scoops of the salted carmel brownie. My was very good. It was creamy and just enough cookie. My husband liked his but said didn't taste the Carmel. The inside was clean and lots of seating. They could use a few more wall decorations, but again they just opened so I am sure it is a work in progress. I love the fact that they include all dietary options. They have dairy free ice creams, no sugar ice creams, and gluten free cones and cookies. Way to go Tennessee Central on that!!!

It started as a goat soap shop and now is expanded to have lots of amazing items as well as drinks, baked goods and sourdough sandwiches.

We also were fortunate to buy some sourdough to take home. The staff is super friendly and the atmosphere is chill and yet refined. We went often and enjoyed seeing the goats and interacting with them a bit. It is a great spot for a coffee, baked good or food plus some soaps and other items. Definitely worth a stop!

Vibes - I really liked the interiors like just a couple of wooden tables and chairs, a shelf with books, and a little merchandise on display. The café has good street parking, which was such a relief. Bites - My husband got a bagel with eggs, and I chose a bagel with herb cream cheese. The bagels were cheap, but when I saw the size, I understood why. A bite in, I could tell they weren't the freshest. They weren't stale, just a bit drier than usual. I did, however, really like the herb cream cheese. I also ordered a mocha, which was pretty mediocre. Service - The staff was polite, though the food took a little longer than expected. I noticed some coughing while we were there, and with flu season going around, it did make me slightly concerned.
