    Bison mocha
    Pree C.

    Tasty coffee here. Some in our group thought the coffees were too sweet, but it was still good. Very nice layout and good seating options. There's also heaters out front that were nice for a cold rainy day.

    This place was interesting. Coffee slash mini mart. Lived there coffee part but could have done w/o the grocery part. I did buy a t shirt. Like the merch. Went with the white bison mocha. I would say it was tasty for a chilly night.

    I've never seen a coffee shop this amazing! This coffee shop is not just super pretty on the outside but also on the inside as well. Besides the actual elegance of the building the staff is also friendly and attentive which is always a bonus. No matter where I go I always get the Carmel frap and at this location is was super delicious!

    First time stopping by! I came here because my go-to on 12th South was closed for the holiday. I grabbed a White Bison Mocha that was great, made with expresso, and fairly priced. The employees were really nice, and there is also a convenience store inside. Apart from coffee, they also serve different types of sandwiches. The second floor is beautiful and perfect for studying. Definitely recommend if in the area!

    Great experience. Ordered a hot latte and a cold one. Quick service and friendly. Nice place to sit upstairs and watch 12 South. Give it a try- lot quicker to get in and out of the Funky Monkey.

    It was a cold day and the warmth of the place was so welcoming. Have been here twice and love their coffee. Bought 2 bags to keep and one to share. Will be back whenever we are in TN.

    White Bison is my absolute favorite place to grab a cup of coffee and study/whatever I need to get done for the day. There are seats downstairs as well as an upstairs where there are couches as well as an outdoor area with couches and a fireplace. All the employees are always super friendly and personable! Brady is always super friendly and asks how we've been doing. I definitely recommend trying White Bison out next time you need your daily caffeine intake :)

    White Bison Coffee is a local TN coffee chain that is currently booming all across middle Tennessee. They currently have 14 total location, 13 of which are in TN and 1 is in AL. This particular White Bison sits in the heart of 12 South and shares its location with a Twice Daily (Convenience store). Both opened in 2018 and for the most part, the building, both inside and out, are still in great shape. Additionally, it was clean, well laid out and organized. The building split in two with White Bison occupying the left side and the convenience store shelves and coolers occupying the right. The store itself is two levels with the second floor being dedicated to seating There is a small window counter downstairs for seating and if the weather is good you can grab one of the lounge seats or tables on the covered front patio. Seating isn't super plentiful, but appears to be enough for the business they do. Service - Absolutely abysmal and truthfully the reason this place did not score higher. When we walked in there were three Associates behind the counter, all on their phones and propped up sitting on the counters. I walked up to the counter and began looking at the menu. This was my first visit to a White Bison, so I had a question if they had a particular drink that I did not see on the menu boards, but saw online. The young lady who came to the register answered my question with "mhmm mmm" and then stood there. I told her I would take one of those and then she rang it up and continued to stand there. She didn't tell me a total or anything, legit just stood there until I paid. Once I paid she took a step back and went back to her phone. At this time another Associate, a young gentleman began making my drink. Once he finished he simply sat it up on the counter and went back to his phone, again saying nothing at all. The third Associate kept her position sitting on the counter during my whole visit. Normally I am really understanding with service given the current state of things, but here the issue isn't staffing, it is the staff themselves. It was a massive turn-off for a new White Bison customer. While the service was terrible, the Iced White Mocha that I got was very well made and super tasty! I can't take that away from them! Overall, I was impressed with the drink, but not the service and vibe that these folks put off. I honestly think the service outweighs the product in this case and given that, I am not going to be apt to return to White Bison, at least this location.

    Enclosed porch area

    Great environment, not so great coffee. I really enjoyed the upstairs seating, especially the enclosed porch with the fire place, it's a really nice environment to just chill or study. The actual cafe part of White Bison included a convenient store area with a bunch of snacks and soda machines and donuts, it was definitely interesting and I hadn't expected it. Overall the vibe of the place was nice and everything was clean. But, the reason I'm giving this place 2 stars is because the coffee itself was not great. I got a mocha and it tasted more like a bitter hot chocolate that comes from a packet. Mochas usually come with some nice milk foam on top of the espresso and chocolate mixture, mine did not and the whole drink was kind of watery. My sister who I went with got a vanilla latte which was not great either it was way too sweet and I couldn't taste the coffee at all.

    We loved our breakfast at Milk and Honey!…read more I've read this place can get very busy and have lengthy waits! Thankfully when we stopped in on a recent weekday morning there was no wait and we were seated in the most perfect spot right away! We chose an outdoor table! The outdoor patio is so nice, even in the Nashville summer heat!! We got there before it was super hot out and the patio kept us super comfortable the whole time!! :) We had a really great waitress who was very knowledgeable about the menu and was able to help us make the best decisions for what we were craving!! We started with a couple of drip coffees that came out in adorable cups, on saucers, with spoons, very lovely appearance! Quite delicious! We ordered a fried chicken biscuit sandwich that was served with their home fries and a side of country gravy. This was delicious! I HIGHLY recommend trying their table hot sauce! We loved it so much we bought a bottle to take home!! :) We also ordered the Chicken and waffles. This dish is also served with home fries and a then a side of syrup. This meal was also fantastic!! We had a really great experience at Milk and Honey and would highly recommend for someone looking for not just a good meal, but an entire lovely breakfast experience! :) Don't forget to check out their gift shop and bakery treats to go, on your way out!!

    It was busy when we got here on a Sunday but it went pretty fast. We were asked about apps and…read moresettled on just getting that. (We had other dinner plans in a few hrs) we got the ricotta/honey bread, the honey butter biscuits and a Bloody Mary. Ricotta/honey: everyone raves about this but we thought it was boring. Ricotta was cold but the bread was warm. No flavor. Added salt and pepper just for something. It gives me ideas of something better to make some day do for that I'm Grateful. Biscuits: husband and friends loved them!! Could have used more butter but still good. Bloody Mary- YEEEESSS!! It was perfect. Our friend got the hot chicken and he loved it. I had 1 bite and it was definitely hot!! And yes- very good. All in all, a good different brunch place for an out of towner. Nothing amazing that I will come back for. Great customer service!

    We had the BEST experience at Biscuit Love!!! A new favorite for sure!!…read more Biscuit Love turned us on to the chicken/biscuit breakfast!! We live in Michigan so this southern fare was SUCH a welcomed change!! We walked in to this spot and were immediately struck by how cute it is! I would recommend checking out the menu before you go because once you enter you are immediately in the line to place your order at the counter! There isn't a lot of room in this area so standing there trying to read the menu for an extended time is difficult! I love to read the entire menu before deciding so for me, I need the extra time! ;) We placed our order and then they seated us at one of their tables with a number. The kitchen brings out the order to your table when it's ready. Everything on the menu sounded so very good, it was hard to choose! Because I was using yelp to see what the menu items looked like I was able to spot a "secret menu item" as the staff member explained. I ended up order the "Nasty Princess". The princess sandwich, which is the Nashville hot chicken version, but add gravy and and egg! AMAZING! This was so, so good! I highly recommend! I also ordered a side of the fried potatoes, which were also very good but ended up being way too much food!! The biscuit sandwich was very large and incredibly filling!! :) We also ordered an egg plate with an upgrade to the chronic bacon - HIGHLY recommend the chronic bacon!! This was super delicious and very unique!! We LOVED the cheese grits on this plate as well as the biscuit with jam!! This is a good choice if you like a platter of different, separated items! For drinks we tried an Iced Sunshine latte, which was very tasty, but very sweet and over the top for our preferences while eating a meal. The drip coffee was wonderful! A perfect compliment to any dish!! :) Biscuit Love is the perfect southern charm spot for a WONDERFUL breakfast experience! Super kind staff, super delicious food, super cute atmosphere... you can even purchase a mug or piece of cute merch to take home to remember your fun time!! We will for sure be back!

From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by one of the sweetest hosts, who made us feel genuinely welcome. We had made a reservation, and our table was ready immediately, making for a smooth and stress-free start to our meal. I would highly recommend making a reservation at least a day in advance--two days if you're visiting on a weekend or during peak travel times. It was clear this place is popular, and for good reason. Our server, Cody, truly made the experience unforgettable. Hands down, he is the best server I've ever had anywhere. He took the time to thoroughly walk us through the menu, explain the daily specials, answer all of our questions, and offer recommendations based on what we were looking for. His knowledge, enthusiasm, and genuine hospitality elevated our entire dining experience. We ordered the pancakes, omelets, and of course, the famous biscuits. The biscuits absolutely deserve the hype! They were warm, buttery, fluffy, and practically melted in your mouth. The pancakes were light, fluffy, and delicious, and the omelets were cooked perfectly and packed with flavor. One thing I really appreciated is that while Loveless Cafe offers a supper menu in the evenings, breakfast is served all day. That's perfect for anyone like me who believes breakfast tastes good no matter what time it is! It's easy to see why Loveless Cafe has become such a Nashville staple. Between the warm Southern hospitality, outstanding service, and incredible food, this was an experience we'll be talking about long after breakfast. If you're visiting Nashville, or even if you're a local who hasn't been yet, put Loveless Cafe at the top of your list. And if you're lucky enough to have Cody as your server, you're in for an exceptional experience!

I'll start off by saying I'm not the biggest fan of pancakes, nor cinnamon and have to be in the mood for both. Today happened to be the day. I tried their pancake sampler, with cinnamon, Caribbean and banana bread pancakes. They were all good, fluffy, airy and flavorful. Banana bread with their maple syrup, Caribbean with cinnamon. But, their cinnamon pancakes were amazing!! Those were definitely the winner!!! Best pancakes I've ever had. Their three pig omelette was pretty bomb as well. I got some of their sausage gravy on the side, to douse the omelette and that was definitely the move there. I think this is the first time I didn't need to use cholula for flavoring. The location is centralized, set up nicely, with huge open indoor space with plenty of seating outside. The service was great as well. Attentive and fast.

The breakfast at Cracker Barrel is better and you get more for you money. If you're ever in Kansas City stop in at the Big Biscuit. That's how breakfast is supposed to be.
