Small coffee shop with some charm. Not much room to sit and spread out. Otherwise its a great place to get your caffeine fix. The yellow and lavender bar was my favorite but is pricey at $5. Spent a little over $7 altogether. The espresso had a nice little kick to it. If your in the area, give this place a try.

Serves great coffee, and syrups are made in-house. Eclectic style and warm atmosphere makes for a great coffee stop in west Nashville!

Quaint, cozy coffee shop with local items to purchase such as vegan bakery items from Vegan Vee and other merchandise from local artists and businesses. You can grab a bite to eat here and the lattes are very good. Street parking is found closeby.

Love love love HQ! Its a great spot to check out as it basically exists in the size of a large alleyway. My personal favorite is the brown sugar iced latte. They have an excellent selection of tea from local favorite High Garden & some really delicious food options as well. FYI - For my fellow bagel with butter lovers... just a heads up that butter is not an option here!

A great little hidden gem. Very little room for seating but that’s okay.

A super unique coffee shop across from Richland Park on Charlotte Ave. Their coffee is locally roasted by Osa Coffee. We score the drip a 8.4 and the espresso a 8.7! We tried the Eclipse Latte and it scores a 8.0! They have a good pastry selection and if you have time check out the back patio.

Best pure coffee shop I’ve tried so far in Nashville. Espresso is top notch along with their seasonal drinks. Their local honey latte is my go-to drink here though. Pastries and Morsel baked goods are a must as well. Staff is really cool and always helpful. I’d come here every day if I could!

Great little downtown coffee joint. They have a relaxing, super chill vibe and have tons of options! They even have sugar-free syrups as well as childrens juices and Naked brand fruit purees for those like me who have toddlers who want a treat, too. There is limited seating, but other than that, everything was great!

Don’t blink or you will miss this gem in West Nashville. It is the smallest real coffee shop I have ever visited. The owner’s use of the space is brilliantly done. This is a bohemian, funky, wonderful little coffee shop with delicious, premium, real barista made drinks. I will caution you that hang out space is severely limited. There is a small outdoor space somewhere in the back that I didn’t visit. True coffee aficionados will love it.

Love this teeny coffee shop so much! We need more businesses like it along the Richland Park corridor!

Great coffee and chai tea lattes. Pastries are top notch too. Would have been nice if the staff had more hands on deck because this place gets busy.

Great peeps. A bit slow for service. A mix-up on what was actually available. Bagel didnt get toasted ☹️

LOVE this spot. Fun atmosphere, delicious coffee (I got an iced lavender latte), and the barista was friendly.

Love this place. Great Coffee, locally owned, great service. The Muffins rock. Favorites are the blueberry and the sausage and cheese muffins. Stop in and grab a cup o joe.

Enjoyed a great spicy mocha latte here last Friday. Intimate space, great for some solo decompression time.

Super cute place, good lavender latte.

Very charming. I got the sorghum, cinnamon latte. Highly recommend. Also loved that the muffins didn’t have the annoying wrapper on base of muffin.

What an absolutely fun place to be. I will definitely go back to this place.

I had the best parfait of my life. The barista was very welcoming and efficient. I will return!

Very cute and cozy little shop, really unique and delicious selection of coffee, tea and pastries! Loved the atmosphere!

Oh! My! Word! What a COOL little (and I do mean little) coffee shop. But its really neat and the coffee was fantastic. You have to be looking for it, but its worth the find!

Super special shop!

They were so rude, said free shots, and charged half after we drank. Trash drinks too.

Expedient, pleasant service and yummy iced tea.

Stopped in for a to-go cup of Joe. Iced americano was awesome! Service was quick and friendly. They were serving Osa coffee. Parking on the street was simple enough to find. Seemed like seating would be a bit tough, but for a to-go cup to give your foot a push, I would certainly come back.

Best coffee shop in Nashville. Cozy, extraordinary baristas and top quality ingredients. The seasonal drinks are always top quality ingredients made from scratch and you can really tell the difference between an espresso drink here compared to typical coffee shops.

Love the local honey latte

I’ve been coming here for a year and the service/ drinks are always on point! A chill place with a relaxed environment. I’ve worked in the coffee industry for years and really enjoy this shop which offers a 20 oz drink that none of the other coffee shops in the city do.

Okay coffee, incredibly rude staff.

Love this cute little hidden gem! Had their iced maple latte and it was amazing!

Best drinks and a wonderfully curated selection of local pastries. I haven’t tried the other food items they make but they look very good as well. I love that this store uses only local tea, local roasted coffee, and local dairy.

Cappuccino was good but barista had a rude tude. If youre looking to get your morning bean juice from a friendly face you might wanna go elsewhere.

Expertly-roasted & freshly-brewed cup of coffee!I drink my coffee black, and, having lived in Nashville for 5 years now, I’ve come to prefer a lighter roast (most indy coffee shops here keep a light roast on tap).I’d never been to HQ before, so, I didn’t know what to expect. But, to say that I was pleasantly surprised by the coffee would be an understatement. It was obvious that the beans were of a very high quality, and expertly roasted. Furthermore, the coffee was freshly-brewed and plenty hot.Headed out on a road trip to Memphis after a long day at work, I decided to forego the faster option of gas station coffee and go a little out of my way and search out a local independent coffee shop. Man, am I glad I did!Best of luck to the owners. You’re doing a great job!I will go back.

Very good 👍👍

This place has some great coffee. It is currently to go only.

Great little place for coffee, tea, and snacks. Ive never gotten anything I didnt like.

Great little spot for a delicious coffee with exceptional service. Friendly knowledgeable staff with experience in delivering amazing coffee. Affordable menu with a great location for walking around discovering more of the areas great local shops, with convenient location to a local park. Located in one of Charlotte pike historic buildings makes for a well rounded an interesting experience. If the opportunity arises dont miss the chance to experience this gem.

It has a great atmosphere reminiscent of a big city. The coffee is top notch and at a reasonable price.

Its hit or miss.... Pretty expensive, not the BEST coffee, but good enoughA lot of vegan/vegetarian muffin-like options

One of my favorite coffee shops in Nashville. Small but great. Good location across from the park too.

I NEVER write reviews, but I feel compelled to do so because of how uniquely wonderful Headquarters is. Their robust flavors, such as rosemary, sorghum, and brown sugar, are fantastic. They stock High Garden teas as well! The seating is an issue, but thats part of the cozy appeal of this hole-in-the-wall place. Additionally, when the weather is nice there is seating out back that is not usually crowded. In my opinion, Headquarters is much better than the 8th and Roast right down the street.

Wandered in on a rainy afternoon and it was a perfect treat. The barista was friendly and helpful, the shop is quiet and cozy, the coffee was good, and the selection was great. The hot chocolate also got a rave review from my non-coffee drinking husband.

This is my favorite coffee shop on the west side! If you haven’t had their local honey latte you are missing out!! But every seasonal drink is to die for as well! If you hit it up in the near future try any of their matcha drinks + oatmilk on ice - its a new personal favorite.

Aaaaand...its still the best coffee in the ever expanding neighborhood.

Wife and I were out and about and decided to try Headquarters. They have one of the best chai lattes Ive had - and I sample them all over. So far, my samplings have been from as far west as Denver and as far east as Savannah. Nice place, great beverage. Give them a shot.

I love Headquarters! Good service, good drinks, good food, good atmosphere. Highly recommend the ricotta toast! Its a very small space, so I usually order to go.

Cool little coffee shop! Nice location and fun design/decor. Great cappuccino

“Quality coffee,” this is the foremost reason why I became a loyal customer of this coffee shop. Their properly brewed coffees are produced by their coffee experts. Over and above that, they also have a wide variety of bean and coffee roaster options which basically means they offer several unique flavors. When it comes to sipping javas, I really love trying something new and unfamiliar to my taste. Fortunately, this coffee shop is like my other half!

Small intimate place. I wouldnt spend time here it were packed (because its just too small) so dont sit around and study. But the coffee is awesome, and the people who work there are the best.

What a cool little, and I mean little, coffee shop! Dont bring the whole family, they wont fit! Rustic ambience, honey and sage latte is yummy, good drip coffee too.

Intimate local coffee shop with great drinks but limited seating. Coffee menu diverse without being overwhelming. Kudos for also offering decaf espresso. Shop fits the vibe of the area to a T.

The store was a cute little store which I liked. I typically like fresh brewed strong coffee from little coffee shops, but for some reason it tasted like this coffee was brewed with chicken broth. I mentioned it to my bf and he laughed and then said he couldnt stop tasting it either. Im not sure if it was the coffee type, or maybe the coffee was old. Unfortunately it is not my cup of coffee.

One of my favorite places to go for a coffee, rustic interior makes you want to get work done baristas are so kind and helpful

When you need a coffee and happen by this place its worth a stop. I wouldnt plan to hang out in there because its small. But the drinks are good. The coffee by the pound was high, I think ...but the espresso machine is top notch with good service

Amazing coffee! Love supporting this local little shop. :)

Great place, good drinks

My favorite coffee spot in town. Just got the amazing sorghum and cinnamon latte (my favorite) with the single best cinnamon roll Ive eaten in the south. These folks know how to make my fall afternoon. Just down the way from a used bookshop too. No better combo in town.

The location is a little out of the way. However, the coffee is sublime. I got a delicious cortado in a stoneware mug. Theres not much room in the interior; a bench, maybe four seats, and a seat near the window. Outdoor seating is available and very pretty. It has a garden-like feel. Sit outside if you can and the weather is good.

Very cool little shop. Great coffee, nice people. The muffins and such looked amazing, but the force was strong with me so didnt get one.

Oh my God. This little hole in the wall coffee shop is a gem.. you have to visit.

Great little coffee shop, emphasis on little. The place is tiny. Basically just a hallway that serves great coffee and the normal coffee house beverages. Amazing baked goods too, chocolate croissants, insanely good cinnamon rolls, scones, muffins, etc. They only have 2 tables and maybe 6 seats in the whole place so probably dont plan to hang out for long periods of time.

Very small but very good. If you need more space check out the back patio. Its like every southern grandmas back porch. Muffin and tea was great.

Cutest little nook off of Charlotte ave. Great atmosphere and very quaint.The coffee is great, and they have vegan options which was perfect for me! Parking across the street allows easy access. Definitely recommend!

Very good coffee. Had the best latte so far in Nashville. Muffins, quiche with greens, avocado on toast, or a bagel with cream cheese is about the entire menu. But this is mainly a coffee place so.... Tiny, maybe 10 feet wide and 40 deep. Exposed brick. Smart, eclectic. Dont bring the whole family. No room for that. But authentically hip for the genuine beard guy (and I dont mean that in a negative way, for once). Excellent playlist.

My boyfriend and I love headquarters! On the weekends we walk the dogs down there and I order the vanilla lavender latte. The coffee is incredible. When we go, theres typically one barista and about 4-5 people in line. Its a little bit of a wait but well worth it!

Small, but not hard to spot. Parking wasnt an issue.

One of the cutest shops Ive been in. :) The tea here is amazing.

A small coffee shop with refreshing atmosphere and flavorful coffee.

Sweet little place. Love the use of local ingredients... Milk... Honey... Syrup.... Great back porch.

The honey oat milk latte is the best coffee drink Ive ever had.

This is definitely my favorite coffee shop in Nashville. The coffee is amazing (get the Mocha!), the staff is hard working and very kind, and while the place is small, theres always room to sit outside. Their food is also quite good, and they have a range of interesting non-coffee foods and drinks. Ill keep coming back.

Great coffee shop! In a narrow old building with a rustic feel, limited outside seating, but nice environment inside. The coffee is excellent.

Very nice vibe.

Coffee and pastries fantastic. Cool gifts as well. I just had ham and cheese croissant and a cappuccino. Delish.

Always great service and love the vibe in here. Went out of my to get coffee this morning (would of been on time if didnt) and regrets nothing 😉☕. Good to the last drop.

Cute, great tasting, and small. Nice nifty little coffee shop to go to. Shop small! 5 stars.

Cozy little local coffee shop, with bonus points for being one of the few on the west side of town. Their cold brew is pretty dang good.

Its got local charm and quirky atmosphere. I dont have much preference for coffee beverages due to consumption being driven by caffeine effects. They have you covered if thats what you are looking for (red eye). Patio is nice, and you get to listen to the patrons at Bettys have typical informal karaoke.

Sublime, tony little cafe tucked in a delicious red brick enclave. Intimate setting with good coffee, little bites and a laid back atmosphere. Great for those wintry days to get away to a piece of Paris or, on that hot summer evening, for a cold cup of juice. The window overlooking the street is my favorite part of the shop and transports me to a Miyazaki like world as I gaze with my cuppa Joe.

Quant little coffee shop with local coffee and tea. Friendly people both behind the counter and in front. Definitely one of Nashville’s hidden gems.

Great Service, good coffee, and pastry this is my first time and if ever we drove back around surely ill come by.

Great hole-in-the-wall coffee shop near the Nations. I love the snug, atmosphere. Tables are small, so its totally a solo experience. Great for getting work done. Therere only a few seats so Im not sure I would feel right staying all day, tho.Pastries appear to be from Dozen, which is always great. They also have some cute gifts too, for out of towners.

This is our neighborhood place, and its tiny and perfect. Expert staff making damn good coffee and—bonus!—vegan muffins! Love you, HQ!

Appeared to be welcoming only to regulars. Was ignored standing in line and not greeted; couldnt figure out where to order because friends all standing around the counter; way too small to move around; eventually walked out.

Love this gem of a place. Best coffee in town. Laura best barrister also.

One of the quirkiest coffee houses in Nashville, and definitely one of my favorites. The one drawback is that its tiny, tiny.

I love the lavender vanilla latte 💕

Delicious cinnamon roll and sorghum cinnamon latte! Quaint little place. Love it!

My favorite coffee/tea spot in town. Yesterday was a tea day. They have an awesome selection of teas.

Cozy. Amazing baristas. Great treats. All around win.

Very small, intimate environment. Great coffee. Reasonable prices. Good soundtracks.

Love this coffee shop. Not very spacious but they have great espresso and macchiatos and a nice selection of baked goods

Iced coffee was pretty good. Not the best but certainly not the worst. Espresso was decent. The shop is cramped and doesnt have many seats or table space.

Came here from out of town, very happy with my choice! Cool spot, great coffee! Real baristas...

Try the spicy mocha

The barista is a rock star.

Glad to find some good locally roasted beans here. And handcrafted jewelery too!

Amazing place to go and hangout. Extremely relaxing. Drop in almost daily

Ordered a latte. Apparently it doesnt come with espresso as its extra money for espresso. Barista wanted to charge me extra for espresso after I already paid for the drink. Cool 😑 its not a latte if it does not come with espresso. Dont charge it separately as I didnt ask for an extra shot.Response to Owner: it should specify on the menu that it does not come with espresso. Again to my point its not a latte if it doesnt come with espresso. Also, I had provided the cashier money then was asked to provide more money after. Thats ridiculous to have the barista argue with me about that.

Friendly people upbeat environment great coffee...made my must stop list.
