This place is slowly becoming a place I visit to do a little work and enjoy some great bourbon, coffee, or tea. They have a long shelf of bourbon sided with a ton off coffee and tea selections. The are knowledgeable, kind, and quick with their service. The environment is very laid back and relaxing. Ill definitely be back.

Awesome experience here. Truly the best old fashion I’ve had here in Nashville. The atmosphere here was welcoming and the decor was inspiring. Can’t recommend this place enough.

This place is the definition of form over function. It is a nice little coffee bar, and the espresso is fairly good, but there are just some strange things that don't quite put it over the line from decent to good. This is a very instagram friendly place, and they really lean into that. Some of the coffees are served in extravagant, though not particularly practical uninsulated single walled glass containers. Uninsulated single wall glass + hot espresso = burning your hand with hot coffee. It is the strangest thing, I'm sure there are presentable insulated glass cups out there, why not use those so people can actually drink the beverage when it is hot? This may have just been something on the flight, looking at other pictures from the business it appears most coffee containers aren't single walled glass, but the point still stands. The coffee itself is fairly good, far from the worst I've had, but also not amazing. I ordered a coffee flight to give a few different styles a try, which came on a floor tile matching the flooring in the building. It was a very nice reference, but let me say it was terrifying to attempt to balance three glass coffee containers on a single tile without any holders for the cups in it, and I'm saying that as a one-time waiter. The macchiato was the best of the three if anyone is curious. The espresso was fine, no strong notes in it at all, and there wasn't any crema, but I'm thinking that this is because it was a true single shot. Most likely the machine pours a double and then they dump half, but I can't say for sure. The food also is just decent. I would give it a miss, really. It is worth going to for the interesting environment, but the actual food and coffee is very "meh". I haven't tried the cocktails but if I go by again I'll be sure to do so.

Not just for coffee drinkers. They also have tastey baked treats and cocktails!

I came here for the first time today, and this is likely going to be my favorite coffee shop! I love how they have actual places to connect and “linger”. The baristas were friendly and helpful, and the coffee and cocktails were tasty. Definitely recommend!

One of the best kept secrets in Nashville. Where music industry cats and coffee aficionados meet as they listen to quiet jazz or loft beats and discuss the latest trends.
An old rustic grand piano sits in the corner and is well used by jazz musicians on the weekends. This place is the real deal. Nothing fake. Solid real vibe.

Love Americano Coffee Lounge! The coffee is great, but the staff are even better. They are geniuses with flavor. I asked for a unique drink over Ice Cream and I enjoyed watching the creative process as they brought flavors to life with fresh ingredients and syrups. My daughter ordered a rootbeer float, and they made the soda right before our eyes with soda water and syrup. It was so fun!
The decor is a refreshing respite from the yawn-inducing interiors of corporate-driven chain stores. Americano has created seating areas that fit small groups as well as individuals using a creative layout to separate areas of the shop. They have a stage with a gorgeous piano - I can't wait to catch some live music. And they've thoughtfully created space for people who need to get some work done by having power outlets at several locations (I always look for plugs when I check out a new coffee shop).
Can't wait to go back and explore more new flavors and drinks!

My personal favorite coffee shop in the city. The entire staff seems to have an encyclopedic knowledge of all things coffee-related. They have coffee down to a science AND an art.
Their beans are sustainably-sourced as well, and they don't cut corners to mass-produce them. I greatly admire this, even if it means my favorite coffee may not always be available year-round (that's hardly an issue anyway, as I've yet to have a cup of anything from Americano that wasn't top-notch)

Maybe my favorite coffee place in Nashville. Drinks are delicious. Great vibe. And as a guy who reads a lot, it is one of the only coffee places whose music is not obnoxious and I can read a book, but still maintains their atmosphere. LOVE.

I expect better. Latte was very bitter. I wish I would have tried a pastry.
