I got my usual - and iced red eye - and it was beautifully acidic. I love a brightness to my iced coffee and it delivered. The space of Retrograde is a comfortable environment with lots of natural light. Also, it was a reasonable price! As always, I would love more GF food options, but I dig this place.

Great view of Nashville meets excellent coffee. The Market Pour Over and espresso score high and the Espresso Old Fashioned was the highlight! Recommend giving Retrograde a try and the pastries look delicious!

Very good coffee, but in that picture, you see $17 for a total of 24oz of coffee and ice.

Joined a friend here for a coffee, park in back!! the staff are great- they know the food & drink they offer, the coffee I had was great, my friend said her sandwich was the perfect meal. We’ll be back!

Love love love this place. Excellent craft coffee!
My husband and I were in town for the week and this was absolutely a favorite!
Only 4 stars because on our last day in town we stopped by so looking forward to getting a drink but they were out of the smoked hickory syrup and out of oat milk and almond milk. A bummer for us since we can’t drink dairy... I was surprised they weren’t out of coffee as well... haha. BUT all in all- coffee (when they have it) is EXCELLENT, beautiful aesthetic, room to hang out or work & one of my favorite coffee shops! Can’t wait to come back!

Great place, friendly staff, inexpensive. My daughter got the Mocha Latte which is made with local Olive & Sinclair chocolate bars and I got the Shagbark Latte made with a Hickory smoked syrup which was absolutely fantastic. If you're a coffee lover, check this place out.

This place is great. New and nice. Everyone is friendly. The drinks we had were great. They aren’t afraid to create some interesting concoctions. They also have a great ambiance to be able to work from, with cute little London style phone booths in the back.
Bottom line: definitely try this place out. You won’t regret it.

Good new coffee spot in East Nashville. Lots of great potential for this third wave spot serving a variety of great Third Wave roasters from around the States. Vibe is pretty nice with a great art piece on the outside wall. Americano was good as was the latte but the pour art needs some work. Definitely worth a visit. Side note - some cool looking furniture and art stores in the same shopping center.

I had a few different coffees and a sandwich while I was in town on business and I’ll definitely be back when I’m in town. The staff was very kind, music was great, place was very clean, and the coffee and food was phenomenal.

It's okay. I'm really confused as to why people frequent this place. Vibes are descent for studying/work but the coffee and baked goods are definitely nothing special. Croissant was 2 out of 10 very hard to bite and almost no taste. Iced coffee eh.
