Great food each time I've been! Service was quick and friendly. Definitely will be going back.

My recent work trip to Nashville led me to Sweet Milk, and breakfast was so good we went back three days in a row. All three meals deserved a spot in this post. Elevated Southern breakfast with fresh ingredients, excellent food and great service. A good start to every morning. Day one was the Flat Top Omelette with ham, cheddar, onion and green bell peppers, plus sausage patties and crispy hashbrowns. Day two was Nonie Sue's Table with scrambled eggs and cheese, bacon and hashbrowns. I swapped the grits for extra hashbrowns and the biscuit for sourdough toast. Day three I kept it simple with over easy eggs, bacon and hashbrowns, but had to try their country ham too. Those hashbrowns are smashed super thin and cooked to crispy perfection. Seriously addicting. The bacon is thick cut, salty goodness, and everything tasted fresh. Sweet Milk will be a go to whenever I'm in Nashville. Other than my weakness for hashbrowns and a little sourdough, I kept things pretty low carb. Next time, I might have to give some of their sweet carbier options a try lol. read more

I wasn't planning on eating much, more of a "stop on the road, grab something quick", but my mind changed as I saw the menu and peeked at other people's options. Hash browns are perfectly cooked --nice and crisp. Juice is freshly squeezed (the grapefruit was fantastic). My only critique? Don't order a matcha latte. Despite the powder matcha being local, it definitely has some sort of sweetener mixed to it that tastes like sweetened condensed milk and there's no way to remove it. Service and ambiance were both great! read more

This place deserves every accolade given. It is rare that I have been impressed as with Sweetmilk! Our server, Leah, was perfect. She was sweet, professional, and her recommendations delivered ten-fold! I wish I had pics, but as soon as my food hit the table, my animal side took over and the food was gone! If u have heard of Keke's Breakfast Cafe, this place is next tier level...with biscuits . I recommend Sweetmilk whole-heartedly. U will not b disappointed. read more

This place was awesome overall. It was pretty crowded, but they moved fast and kept things flowing. If you like attentive service with waitresses checking on you often, I'd recommend sitting at a table instead of the bar since the bartenders stay pretty busy. Even with that, we still had a good experience. There was a little mix-up with our food a few people who ordered after us got their meals first, and the table next to us accidentally received our order, so we ended up waiting a bit longer. It was definitely frustrating at the moment, but once our food came out, it made up for it. We had the shrimp and grits along with the steak, eggs, and hashbrowns, and everything was delicious. The sweet cream cold brew was really good, and even though the orange juice was a little small, it still tasted fresh. The atmosphere was nice, and I also liked that they had outdoor seating. Overall, despite the small hiccup, I'd still come back and recommend this spot. read more

Visiting the area and didn't want the sub par free hotel breakfast. Glad we ventured out as this was probably the best meal we had while in Nashville. We dined early on a Saturday so it wasn't busy yet. Service was wonderful. Staff told us of their favorites and didn't steer us wrong. You must get the grits! They were delicious! Love how bright the inside is. I will visit again when I am in Nashville next. read more

I've been wanting to try this place for ages, but it always seemed packed. Well, today (Memorial Day) was no different. I tried to swing by around ten minutes to noon, but it was a disaster. There were heaps of people waiting outside, and it didn't look promising. I went to the hostess stand and asked the guy if I could get a table for one, and he said, "Oh, you can sit at the bar; it's open seating. There's one open seat right there!" So, I walked through and was approached by another worker who asked me what I was doing. I told her the guy said I could sit at the bar, and there was an open seat, even though I never saw one. I did see open seats outside at the bar, though. The bar has two sides, one outside and one inside. It seemed alright; it wasn't too hot or humid, so I went. There were dirty dishes all over the place, and I sat down. Another worker asked me, "Are these dishes yours?" Which seemed a bit strange because the guy works the bar and wouldn't he have known the person sitting there before me left them? Anyway, I said no, and he cleared them. I then waited about 5 minutes before another worker skillfully wiped the bar of debris and then got three menus and three sets of silverware (two more guys sat down next to me) and asked me if I wanted water. I said, "Yes, please." She went off, and then shortly after, I saw the same guy come with a menu and a set of silverware and a water. Thumbs up for the water but thumb down for the slowness. I saw the menu and was torn between pancakes and biscuits. I didn't really want anything heavy, so I got the biscuits and gravy but added an egg. I also got a coffee. The wait time for the food was super quick, and the food was really good. The biscuits are small, and they're okay. The egg was good, but it's kinda hard to mess up an egg. I saw the food the people sitting next to me got, and it looked amazing! Pancakes, etc. Overall, the service was pretty bad, but the food was good. I saw no sense of urgency in the workers when they were obviously swamped. I might come when it's not so busy next time. Side note, maybe I'm showing my age, but the price of regular drip coffee was a bit steep. ($4). read more

The decor was so bright and inviting, the staff was all friendly, and the food was delicious! We both had the country breakfast, which was cooked perfectly. I had a vanilla, sweet cream, cold brew, which was delicious as well. We will definitely come back here again! read more

My husband and I have eaten at this restaurant twice. Once with our son and once just the two of us on a Sunday morning, the food is terrific. Service is friendly and attentive. The environment is a bit loud, but it is clean and inviting. We will definitely return to sweet milk for breakfast or brunch again in the near future our pancakes were very tasty as were my grits and scrambled eggs with cheese. My fruit bowl was plentiful with nice sized pieces of blackberries and raspberries and blueberries. I enjoyed my latte and my biscuit as well. Great place for breakfast brunch. read more

My friend has been trying to get me to check out his favorite brunch spot for ages, and I finally made it. Now it's our shared favorite! I can't say enough good things about Sweetmilk. We stopped in on a Sunday morning, and were greeted with big smiles and quick service. I had the Southern Breakfast Bowl... fried chicken, hot honey, pickled onions, and pimiento cheese grits. I dream about it. Great atmosphere, food, and service. You have to try this place out!! read more

Excellent brunch spot! Food, service and ambiance are all excellent. An extra bonus is the free parking and not being downtown. This was my second visit.

We have eaten here many times with great food and service. Today a little different. Got pancakes and when I cut them up I found a short black hair under the pancake, not mine since I am all gray. Had a polite sorry from the server and a refund. read more

Met friends for brunch and enjoyed the experience. Had a short wait, less than ten minutes, and we were seated. Our server was great and very attentive. The food is great so some things run out toward closing, so be a little flexible. There is a large, bright, and surprisingly quiet dining room with roll-up doors for the outdoor feel on mild days. read more

Every breakfast I have had here is in the top 5 in town. Utterly on point without the bro vibes of, well, you know, other places. Perhaps that's why the team and customers are happily diverse and the service doesn't seem so beat up by the customers. This is one of Nashville's most delightful spots. Try it soon, won't you? read more

Sweetmilk was a solid 10 out of 10. The space felt open and inviting, the service was on point, and the food came out in about six minutes. The coffee was smooth and delicious. My steak and eggs were cooked perfectly, and my partner's shrimp and grits were amazing. I'm a big grits fan, and these were honestly some of the best I've ever had. So good.

I stopped by SweetMilk in Donelson for breakfast and was so impressed! I ordered the breakfast casserole, and it was so good -- warm, flavorful, and perfectly comforting. The service was super quick too, which made the experience even better. The staff were friendly and everything came out fresh and fast. Definitely a great spot for a cozy breakfast in Donelson -- I'll be coming back! I was also pleasantly surprised there wasn't a super long wait on a Saturday morning, but it was definitely getting more crowded as we were leaving! read more

Stopped in for brunch on 10/13 around 11am! Sweetmilk is SO good and I loved the story behind its name! It had the best vibe! The food was delicious and they had the best ice for your drinks! The service was great as well and it was a busy Monday morning! read more

We are on vacation and this was a last min add to the day. The food was good but the hash browns were a little greasy. My grits were outstanding. I also would put the raspberry jam on ANYTHING and eat it. The service was hit and miss. Food to table was on point but the drinks and interaction with out server was lackluster. It was a little disheartening to sit next to two regulars who got all the refills and extras and food within mins of sitting down. Treat ALL your customers this way and you will always have regulars. Overall it was a great meal but just need to reevaluate the service. read more

The coffee is excellent, the sweet potato pancakes were moist and delicious without being too sweet. The omelette was very good, with the exception of them forgetting the sausage. The hash browns were crispy but a bit too dry. and the country fried steak was generous with delicious. The food was very good. Being Saturday morning the restaurant was full and very noisy kinda like an empty warehouse. The biscuits were overcooked and hard. With the restaurant so full it was difficult for the waitress to be attentive. The idea of is a good one, but the execution was just adequate. It was not a memorable experience that we will not be repeating. read more

The food.... OMG! They know! The pancakes... whether blueberry, sweet potato, or regular, they can make the BROWN with CRISPY edges!!! Just perfect! The other food is great, but those pancakes.... say bye bye barrel of crackers! Sweetmilk's pancakes are just freaking DELICIOUS!! The hashbrowns... lordt! Crispy, seasoned and brown! Again, just perfect! The biscuits, like my pancakes and hashbrowns, you can get browned as well. But ask for extra jam! Your insulin levels will hate you later! Lol. Their chia latte... THE BOMB!!! I always order. The service is just right and the servers are patient with you because I really want to try and order something else off of the menu! But damnnnnnnn those pancakes! PLEASE DO NOT GO THERE BEING "PRIVILEGE-ACTING" to the servers! They like being there and I love frequenting this establishment. Happy workers = great food. So don't be am ass to them!! read more

Sweetmilk It's been quite a while since I visited Sweetwater, but the memory of that experience has stayed with me. The food was absolutely amazing--rich in flavor, beautifully prepared, and clearly made with care. Just as memorable was the warmth and kindness of the staff. Everyone we encountered made us feel welcome, and the overall vibe of the place was relaxed, friendly, and genuine. It's the kind of restaurant that doesn't need flash--it wins you over with heart and quality. If you're in the area, do yourself a favor: give them a chance and enjoy a great meal at Sweetmilk. read more

After picking up my husband from the airport we decided so go somewhere hip for breakfast. I looked on Yelp for some gluten free options. Sweet milk came up as gluten free options. The restaurant was easy to find and there was lots of available parking. It's an open air concept restaurant so it's really loud. There's tons of seating inside and out. They seated us on a bench table and there wasn't a cushion or anything. Sorry I don't like sitting on painted wood planks. I was disappointed that they didn't have a gluten free menu. I was had the grits $4 and avocado, salad, radish, pepitas toast $9 both were gluten free ( gluten free bread) Everything was really delicious. The grits were creamy and buttery. So yummy. The service was pretty quick. I had a hard time hearing because of the open concept but we had a really good time. Not sure if it was a coincidence but I did have a gluten ache afterwards so I'm sure if I would go back. read more

Love this cute little gem! Stopped here before we hopped back in the road to STL and we were definitely impressed! It gives bougie cafe vibes but very welcoming! Its small inside and they had a wait when we arrived so we I need to sit at the bar, which was really nice. They have a window which I didn't get a picture of that open and it was the perfect weather so that was really great. They had a mixture of booths and tables and also the bar where we sat and we got to watch all the magic happen with the coffee bar right in front of us. It was really interesting to see how fast they work and how well they work together and how the drinks are made overall it was a great experience. All of the food was really good and the portions weren't huge so it was the perfect size before getting on the road. Although I love a good overloaded breakfast plate I never tend to eat it all and I felt like the portions were perfect. The coffee was obviously made fresh in house and oh my gosh did it taste so good. The cappuccino was to die for and it was refillable, which was nice. My entire group left satisfied and I would definitely give them a standing ovation. read more

Ordered breakfast biscuit sandwiches from here this morning and was a bit disappointed. I figured since this was nicer sit down restaurant with a sizable menu it'd be great but it was not. My husband and I ordered two gas station biscuit sandwiches (one with bacon and one with sausage). Unfortunately, these sandwiches were not even as good as the name (have had many a better biscuit breakfast sandwich at gas stations). The biscuit was hard and small. The egg and bacon overcooked. My husband's sausage patty thin and not very tasty. An overall disappointment making me wish I'd literally gone to a gas station instead - I don't recommend. read more
