Elegy Coffee Germantown

Before I get into my rating, here’s what I loved about this cafe and why it might be a 5-star for you:
- they’re not joking when it comes to their espresso. It’s everything you wish Coffee offers you
- their specialty latte flavor is so unique and unlike what I have had anywhere else. In fact, they don’t hide behind the popular ingredients that go with coffee such as hazelnut, dark chocolate, caramel etc. I had the Garden Party Latte and it just blew my mind

The reason I’m not giving it a high rating is because:
- it was hard to work there at around 3pm on a sunny day, I could hardly see my laptop screen with that reflection. A couple of people sitting around me were also changing their positions to get a better look at their laptops
- parking on Taylor street is almost never available. You gotta use a paid parking lot to hang out here
- at $7.50 it’s priced a tad steep
- didn’t get the cozy vibe I usually look for in cafes

The iced chai was amazing! By far the best item we had. Very heavily spiced and flavorful! It’s so nice to go to place where the chai is not just Tazo poured in a cup.

We also had the specialty latte, which was flavored nicely and not too acidic. It matches the quality I’ve come to expect from Nashville coffee shops, but it certainly isn’t anything exceptional in my opinion.

We also had the breakfast burrito, which was good and very filling. I like the addition of sweet potatoes. I personally could get two meals out of it but I wasn’t super hungry.

The staff were lovely. They even poured our extra coffee into a to-go cup because we couldn’t finish.

The inside is new and bright. I love all of the plants and natural lighting.

Loved the vibe here! I got the cranberry orange matcha and it was so refreshing. I wish the parking was more convenient but it was worth it!

Definitely has great coffee. Would not recommend for sitting with friends, it’s a tad cramped. Nonetheless, great for getting some of the best coffee in town.

The OG in East has been my go-to caffeine filling station, so I’m stoked for a 2nd location closer to my office! Best coffee around, literally everything on the menu is 🔥 and the service is unbeatable. Love love love these guys.

Barista was nice! And my drink was good! But $12 for a dirty chai???? Sheeeeeeesssshhhhhh

Menu is different that east side. Order ahead is easy and wonderful! Parking in the area is tough.
