Slow Hand Coffee + Bakeshop

Quaint local coffee shop & bakery offering excellent quality coffee, homemade pastries, and friendly service!

> The cream cheese cookie is a must try, bold flavor but not overpowering. It was amazing.
> Lemon Poppy Seed muffin was also wonderful, natural lemon flavor was pleasant.
> My iced latte had the perfect milk to espresso ratio.

Quiet and quaint cafe, great for catching up with friends or family. The atmosphere is cozy and welcomes you for extended periods of time.

Let me just say...OMG!!! That Broccoli, ham and Parmesan frittata was so good that I want to slap everyone's mama. Perfect (Chef's kiss). The New York coffee cake wasn't bad, either. Why has it taken me so long to eat here? I pass here several times a week. Well...I will most assuredly be back.

Great local made pastries and egg sandwiches. The service was very friendly and the coffee was good. Great breakfast spot.

First visit was to pick up this delicious King Cake! I am far from an authority on King Cakes, but I know what I like and I know when it's good. This, friends, is both. I ordered the cream cheese version and it does not disappoint! The aroma upon opening the box was a good indication that I was about to be in Heaven, and I was. Obviously fresh, fluffy, not too dense, moist (the only allowable use for this word, BTW), the right amount of sweet... Just really, really solid. Get you one! Laissez les bons temps rouler! 💜💚💛 #FoodiesOfNashville

My husband and I were staying in an airBnB within walking distance of this coffee shop, so we decided to give it a try because it was recommended by the host. We glanced over the menu and thought it looked like a good little coffee and brunch spot. We went at 10:30am on a Sunday.
Unfortunately, there were no brunch items at all (like the biscuits on the menu or pictured in the reviews and on social media). They were only serving pastries which were nearly gone by the time we arrived. We actually thought we may have gone to the wrong place. We ordered a quiche and cheese danish and two lattes which were all pretty good, but customer service was a bit slow and honestly unfriendly to say the least. I asked for a napkin which are kept behind the counter and was given a look of pure annoyance. There were only two employees working, so I am sure they felt stressed given the number of people in line, but that’s no reason to act this way toward customers. I am not one to take the time to leave a negative review but we were so stunned by this experience, I feel I must. I am unsure how this place has this high of a rating if this is how daily operations are run. I am giving 2 stars instead of one because as mentioned, the coffee and pastries were good.

Visiting from Virginia Beach and I needed a quick coffee and breakfast, their biscuit literally melts in your mouth - it’s SO good. The woman who took my order was very sweet and listened to how picky I might be about my iced coffee. It’s delicious! Thank you :)

Great pastries and coffe, came here for breakfast after eating at the adjacent restaurant and loving the focaccia and deserts.
Beautiful setting, simple and effective.
My only complaint would be for the lack of plates, silverware and cups. Even though we ate there, all the food and drinks were served in paper containers and plastic cutlery, very impractical, un ecological and frankly disappointing.

Get some real plates and cups! Coffe is 200% better when brewed in ceramic or glass, paper is for Starbucks.

Our first visit definately didn't disappoint!! We ordered the egg & cheese biscuit to-go. The biscuit was absolutely delicious!! Perfectly cooked, delitefully seasoned & generous portion sizes. Great addition to the neighborhood. We'll certainly be back.

The Vegan Sweet Potato Muffin is what I come back for and their other pastries are very good. The name explains some of the experience of this shop as it usually takes me 10-15 minutes to get my drink and food, even if the line is short, so I wouldn’t recommend popping in if you’re in a hurry. However, the people are sweet and the vibe is chill, and did I mention the vegan sweet potato muffin? I’m not even vegan and I daydream of this muffin.
