This place was recommended for us, and we drove from Murfreesboro.Got here at three pm to be turned away because the kitchen is closed. Posted hours online and on the front says 3.Did not try the food. But accuracy in operations hours will be nice.
Decided to stop by to get a drink and some breakfast. Let me start of by saying this cafe is a super cute and definitely could be a place to get some studying done. However, the one star rating is because of the food quality and EXTREMELY slow service. I got a breakfast burrito and the potatoes were so undercooked I couldnt even stab my fork through them. We also waited 50 mins for two drinks (this isn’t an exaggeration). 50 mins for a latte and Arnold Palmer is quite ridiculous for a place that wasn’t even that busy.
I love black coffee so I ordered the drip. I think their water to grounds ratio was fine and it was fresh, but their choice of bean was not at all my taste. One of these ultra metallic ones (iron?). No other notes present. I guess some people like it, and if youre putting a ton of cream and sugar in it you probably wont notice how bad it is.
This place is so neat! The couple that own it are some of the nicest people I’ve met! I went there for a graduation party and they opened up the whole space to us like it was like our own home. I didn’t get to try any food but the coffee was REALLY good!!
I got some sort of strawberry latte from Makai. The coffee itself had good flavor, though didn’t taste the strawberry at all and I had so many coffee grounds floating at the top and at the very bottom that I had to strain it when I got home.
Love Counter Culture Coffee! Had some great Avocado Toast as well.
Awesome breakfast sammy on a great biscuit. Loved it. The coffee was fine, not great. Inside was clean and comfortable. Good place to get some work done away from the house.
Cut my finger on the biodegradable coffee cup lid. Large coffee is 10oz
Spacious and modern style coffeehouse, providing enough comfortable space to work and relax. I failed to check on the outlet availability, tho :(Unisex bathroom for whom it may be co concern.Can’t say much good about the food. Or coffee. Both were less than mediocre. Breakfast tacos were half warm corn tacos and scramble eggs, with no seasoning or salt. That’s it.
Cool vibe. Delicious coffee, great service and the best egg biscuit sandwich I’ve ever had. We will be back!
Waited 40 minutes for a black coffee. Several customers ahead of us left without receiving their food. It doesn’t appear this cafe is prepared to serve more than a few people at once.
The setting is clean and fresh, bright and social. Its like being in a summer scene without the humidity- quite the escape from Nashville heat. The vast number of windows offer sweet views of Belmont. A variety of food options are available from a creative menu. I had scrambled eggs (slimey) with yummy gf toast and bitter greens (love the beets though). I should have stuck with gf toast. There was a wait, but coffee was outstanding. I had my usual- oat milk latte with honey... superbly crafted!
The staff is very cool and the food was very good
Understaffed. 1 barista and 1 cook working on Friday. Had to wait 30 minutes to get my coffee. If you are in a hurry don’t eat here.
Had a huge piece of paper in my veggie wrap which I didn’t notice until I was chewing on a chunk of it on my third bite. Opened up the other half and found more paper. Off putting to say the least. Minimal response from the person at the counter.
The customer service is friendly, and it is a quiet place to study. One of my favorite spots to work at! If I could ask for anything it would be for a bike rack. The food and baked goods are delicious. I have been coming more than once per week. The price is great considering that everything is local and compostable! Very welcoming place
Terrible service, people got food before us that walked in 20 minutes after us.
Wonderful café and great place to host a party! Everyone there is so helpful and professional! Loved working with Grace and Sam for our baby shower. Ill hopefully have all my parties there in the future!
Coffee was good. Food was not good at all. Super overpriced and the quality was subpar (ie under seasoned, bread was dry, cheese in sandwich was literally a 1inch square in the middle of the sandwich?). Again, coffee was good and the shop has cute ambience/ friendly staff- just don’t get the food.
Excellent customer service, great coffee and food! The girls were so professional, so helpful, and so friendly. Very glad we found this place!
Great vibe, relaxed and airy. The coffee drinks--my cinnamon dulce and my wifes golden turmeric--were delicious, and the avocado toast and fruit yogurt parfait were even better than expected. Sam, the owner, came and checked on us personally. One of our new favorites in Nashville!
Makai was such a great experience. The baristas were incredibly kind and attentive. The vibe and choice of music was great and fitting for a lunch/espresso while catching up on work. And the catfish tacos..... I’ll definitely be back!
Love this place! Always laid back place to post up and get some work done. Great coffee and food. Highly recommend the mushrooms tacos and the catfish tacos. 👌🏽👌🏽
Great vibe! Great food! Great people! Order the breakfast burrito and you will be thankful!! Oh - they have bacon for your dog too!
Excellent service, delicious coffee, immaculate atmosphere. I highly recommend this coffee shop.
Good coffee, pleasant ambiance, very fast internet
This place is an absolute hidden gem. I especially loved their iced chai!
Great coffee, delicious choices and even have dairy alternatives like oat milk.
The biscuits are delicious. Friendly staff and an all around great atmosphere. Will definitely be back.
Fav. yum spot in Nashville. Coffee is the best, food is excellent! Great ambiance and service.
My favorite coffee shop in all of Nashville! The employees are super friendly and fun to chat with. The food is delicious and tastes fresh. The atmosphere is very unique and cozy. Please go here!
Best breakfast burrito around! Also, their biscuits are delicious - a true southern style biscuit.
Love the vibe of this place! It has a really cool bamboo ceiling. The pumpkin spice latte is also quite delicious! Oh, and they have PARKING (so win-win)!
We had a great lunch here before our appointment at the salt room a few doors down. Two fabulous places so close is a real treat! 🥰
Love this place. Great food and service. 7th weekend in row eating there!
The Iced Vanilla Latte is the best weve found in Nashville. Relaxing, open bamboo island type atmosphere. Reasonably priced. This place is a hidden gem. We didnt realize it was a coffee shop until we looked it up.
The service was good the vanilla decaf cappuccino was good wasnt too sweet $5. The seasonal yogurt bowl was delicious and tasted fresh. It was a good amount for $6.
Great coffee, really cool local items for sale and the breakfast was delicious
Love it💖💖
Be careful as this store discriminates against those with different backgrounds and beliefs.
I have loved this place since it opened. The owner is friendly and the staff too! The smoothies are unique and use sun butter. They have a small breakfast and lunch menu that is quite tasty. And you can get gluten free too. ♡♡♡ Thank you!!
Insanely good biscuits and chef is humble and sweet!
Coffee is something myself and many people like me are a little particular about. this establishment has a great selection of premium quality coffees to satisfy even the most sensitive palates. I try to stop by here on the way to the office as often as possible. the prices arent cheap but you certainly get what you pay for. if you ask me, its worth an extra buck for something that is satisfying and skillfully prepared as this!
Amazing coffee (seasonal latte) with roasted mushrooms toast is a perfect breakfast combo
Ill say it; I would rather die than live in a world without Makai. Its everything perfect and more.
Local, Organic, and that good ol Mom and Pops feel. This place is incredible! The breakfast tacos are literally the best thing since Betty White and the coffee is so delicious you will want to try them all!! The staff consists of the sweetest family in the whole world! They truly make the place one of a kind! No other coffee shop stands in comparison! Make sure to plan this little gem in your daily agenda!
Unassuming from the outside, but wonderfully cozy, clean, and happy on the inside. Excellent drip coffee, reasonably priced simple and delicious breakfast foods and pastries, and I cant wait to come back to try some of the smoothies. Dont count on wifi, guest network appears to be broken. Sweet staff team and spacious, calm environment with plenty of table seating and some couch seating too. Walking distance from Belmont if you need a good study spot.
Great Hawaiian themed coffee shop and one of the best breakfast sandwiches in town. Not the easiest to spot since its tucked away a block off of 12th, but well worth a pop in
Y’all you gotta come check this out! The renovation they did is amazing, the vibe is incredibly cool, and the food is delicious. This is a must-visit!
Love the vibe from this cafe and their drinks. Always very prompt as well wether Im chilling inside for a while or running out the door
Great place to have breakfast, coffee was incredible and the atmosphere was very open light and friendly
By far my favorite coffee shop in Nashville!! Very impressed with their originality and excellence. You can tell that everything is done with love!Perfect place for studying, meetings, or just hanging out! (And youll be friends with all the staff by the time you step in the door!)
This unimposing establishment in a dilapidated Berry Hill house has become my family’s favorite a Sunday Brunch spot. The breakfasts include all the classics, but each has a pleasant little twist added. Expect a 10- minute wait on Sindays
Been to coffee shops all around the US—north, south, southeast, west, midwest, east and northeast...still my favorite shop. Where-the-locals-go and hip, homey atmosphere. Unique coffee based-drinks and themed teas! Super welcoming and cute.
Simple. Great idea. Breakfast tacos were light and spot on. The wait staff was super nice. Glad we found it.
I love their biscuit baskets and their jams and jellies are positively amazing. I love the atmosphere and how everyone makes you feel at home.

Possibly the single best establishment in Nashville. Great coffee, incredible tea collection, the best breakfast sandwich in all of Tennessee. Most importantly the nicest friendliest staff on earth. I love this place.
Nice and open area to hang out in. The coffee I had (butterscotch) was very good. Unfortunately, I had invited an associate to meet me there and he told me that before I arrived he had, had a problem with the young woman behind the counter regarding a tax exempt form that he had requested because this was a business meeting for him.
My boyfriend and I payed so much money for 2 pieces of toast. Beware yall. Beware. Two stars because at least the toast tasted ok. Just ok. The gentrification snapped on this one.
Great breakfast tacos! Very busy place, took sometime to find a table. Mostly students studying taking up the bigger tables. Smoothies and juices are expensive. Worth it for the tacos though.
Very helpful and sweet staff. I love the healthy smoothies and detox teas! Great atmosphere!
Cool 50s-style atmosphere and furniture. Specialty coffee drinks, non-dairy friends can substitute milk with their macadamia nut milk! Also their breakfast sandwich is amazing :)
Love this place!! Great food and drinks, wonderful environment, hard working staff! Always consistent in quality, this place is so my jam!
One of my favorite nashville coffee shops! They have delicious coffee made with local ingredients and the sandwiches are really good as well! I love the retro vibe too!
Have been here twice after I get off work in the morning. The Valentine is delicious, the ambience is soothing, and they use LOCAL milk. LOVE.
The worst toast I have ever been served in my whole life? Perhaps. Mediocre coffee at the highest peak of inflation. What can you do with $32? Go have the worst breakfast of your entire existence.
I keep coming back to this local coffee shop for their Caramel Like Woah! It makes my day every time!Staff is friendly and they have a chill hip 50s vibe!Im an old soul so I feel right at home here!
Fast, friendly service. Great selection of coffees and teas.Wonderfully decorated. 🇬🇧🇺🇸☺🌈✌
Awesome
I know many people who like this place, and I will say that the drink I had there was pretty good, but Im only giving it 2 stars because of how rude I feel the barista was. I met a few friends there and had obviously never been before. When it was my turn in line, I told the barista that I mostly drink my coffee black- his response was, Thats cool. Let me know when youre ready. Next! Like...no attempt at suggesting anything, didnt even offer drip coffee (which they apparently offer, along with regular hot tea, but neither is on the menu). I should also point out that it was NOT busy, so the expectation of assistance was not unreasonable. Overall, I got a very rude and snobby vibe the, and will be unlikely to return.
Coffee Gem!! This place needs to be on your coffee tour on Nashville. The decor is awesome but the coffee concoctions are unique and flavorful. This place really needs to be on your list of coffee shops to visit.
Great vibe. Interesting coffee options. Could use more air-conditioning tho
I wish they stayed open a lot later but super good drinks and cute decor
Cool atmosphere, but the music doesnt fit the retro vibe. Decent lattes.
Good smoothies, good coffee, bright and open space. Long wait for food midmorning on a weekday.
Love the atmosphere here! Delicious coffee too.
Nice little vibe, pretty good food and the staff is friendly. Expensive for what it is, but the happy tea is great.
Great food and coffee !!! Great healthy options
Without a doubt the jam coffeehouse has the best coffee; healthy, delicious food; and most friendly and welcoming employees!
While it was good they only use whole milk, so the lactose intolerant should beware.
LOVE IT! One of my favorite places to go. Such a great environment and delicious food!
Excellent food and the staff was amazing. Cashier was the friendliest ever
I have only been here twice but I ordered the dirty chai with almond milk both times. It is mind blowingly good. a little expensive but I dont go frequently.
Sooooo good. Americano... Breakfast tacos.... changed my morning.Staff was friendly and service was great.This is my new breakfast spot.
Great local coffeeshop! So glad it is here!
I dont want to tell you how awesome this place is at the expense of too many people finding and taking open seats at this perfect hangout.
Best breakfast burritos ever
