The best old school breakfast joint in South Nashville. Fresh biscuits, homemade gravy, large omelettes, and hot coffee in real mugs. Country Cafe is a great way to start your day (weekdays only)! read more

First things first. A quaint family owned cafe with the best crew working to put the best food on your table. I went here years ago on a regular and was fortunate to be in the area so I stopped in. Everything was the same. Same fam working, same layout, and still delicious food made to order. The menu has everything you'd expect for breakfast and then some. When's the last time you saw fried bologna on a menu. The lunch menu has plenty and there are at least ten specials listed on a white board. If you want an old school atmosphere, great food, and great people, do yourself a favor and eat here. read more

I have eaten here probably 8 times now and just now writing a review. This is a nice hidden treat but don't let the outside fool you. Inside you will be treated like they have known you all your life. I have had eggs, an omelet, a biscuit and for lunch, pretty much all their options. Also the food is honestly a 4.75 / 5.00. The service and staff is a 5/5 The ambiance is a cafe /diner feel 5/5. If you are on the fence about coming don't be, give it a try. I can't rate it a 5.00 because frankly I haven't had all the food yet here but will keep coming back. Also I'm not paid for this endorsement at all. read more

The Country Cafe is located on Murfreesboro Pike in Nashville. This place looks like it's been serving customers for at least 20+ years. The vibe is welcoming and homey. The Country Cafe serves breakfast and lunch. My dining companion and I arrived for breakfast. We were promptly greeted and advised to sit anywhere we wanted. There is both table and counter seating available. Our order was promptly taken, coffee arrived soon after. The service is swift. My dining companion ordered 2 eggs & sausage, which was accompanied with grits, and a biscuit. My dining companion raved about the grits. I ordered the 2 eggs & bacon entree, which was served with a warm biscuit, sausage gravy, and home fries. This is a generous meal and filled me for half a day! This is a smallish restaurant, but the staff are genial and welcoming. If we were in the area, we would surely return. read more

Great, home cooked breakfast! Really clean and comfortable with the nicest people working here. You can tell they have lots of regulars that absolutely this place & it's easy to why. Highly recommend! read more

Best sausage, egg, cheese biscuit I've ever had. I visit every time I'm in the area. I've also tried the bacon, egg, & cheese biscuit, as well as the chicken steak biscuits. Highly recommend read more

I was in the area and was looking for a diner and found this one in my search on yelp. Glad I stopped by. The place is a bit small but good spots usually are. I say myself and the server was asking me what I wanted to drink in a flash. I then ordered a cheeseburger and had a choice of side so I got the tots. Burger was really good with lettuce and tomato and the tots are always a plus. The food came out fast and they got free refills on drinks. Prices are very reasonable. Want to come back again and try some of the other items on the menu. read more

Best breakfast food in Nashville hands down. Beats waffle house out the park. Love the vibe and hospitality here.

Great little greasy spoon. Reminds me of my little no-stoplight hometown dinner in Eastern TN. Food was good and service was helpful and friendly. Nothing fancy here but it was a pleasant experience all around and I left here completely full. The biscuits were amazing and my favorite part of the breakfast! read more

Country Cafe - Country fried steak breakfast. - Southern Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Just arrived in Nashville and was deperate need of a southern breakfast. This is the place great food and awsome service

Boy did this place hit the spot. Our first trip to Tennessee and our first meal here. We took a red eye and landed at 5 am. After getting our rental we found the Country Cafe and were greeted with so much joy. Our server was excellent and extremely hospitable. The food was yummy. My kids devoured the pancakes and the biscuits were perfect. read more

On our way out of town to BNA, we needed to have some lunch. Stopped in to Country Cafe, and it did not disappoint. If you love comfort food made right (and we do!), this is the place. They've got a board listing their daily specials. We ordered a chicken salad stuffed tomato, pineapple fluff, chicken fried steak sandwich with fries and brown gravy, patty melt, cheeseburger and a slice of their damn good chocolate cake. We washed it all down with sweet tea and lemonade. It was all really good, just super tasty food but the standouts for us were the stuffed tomato, chicken fried steak and that brown gravy. Soooo good. The patty melt and cheeseburger were juicy, cheesy and toasty. Chocolate cake was indeed damn good. Worth noting is that it's a small place. We were there at 11:30 on a Tuesday and slid right in with time to spare. They do close at 2 pm, so dinner isn't on the menu. Otherwise, highly recommend! Service was fast and friendly. Lots of kindly locals to mingle with, too. read more

Came here before my flight from BNA. Quaint little dinner, big country vibes. Regulars shuffling through, and conversations in the background that are thoroughly entertaining. The sounds of the kitchen's pots and pans and the sizzle of the grill all make up the cozy atmosphere here. I wouldn't say go out of your way to make this a pit stop, but I haven't had a country fried steak with gravy in a long time and it sure hit the spot. This isn't some fine dining establishment like you see in NYC; what you see is exactly what you get and I loved it. Exactly what I needed and prices are reasonable here. read more

Country Cafe - Country Cafe at lunch. - Southern Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Breakfast is amazing , great customer service always give me that home-cooked vibe. And it's affordable.

The food was delicious fresh off the grill, and the service was the best everyone there was so helpful definitely recommend this place.

I am giving four stars because the service was really good but the food was pretty average. The servers were all very friendly and attentive. This is definitely a hangout for locals--the servers seemed to know a lot of the customers in the restaurant. It's a no-frills, seat yourself kind of place. Only open Monday through Friday and they stop serving breakfast at 10:30. I was hoping for breakfast but we arrived about 15 minutes past the cut-off time. I went with a chicken sandwich and fries. The hubs went with a country-fried steak sandwich with mac and cheese. My chicken was pretty tough and the bun that it was on did not hold up to the weight of the chicken, so the bottom of the bun was pretty much smooshed flat. The fries were good--crinkle cut and piping hot! I was told that the country-fried steak sandwich was just okay and the mac and cheese was not homemade. I would definitely stop by again and try out some of the other food. The desserts looked really good. Blueberry Cheesecake? Yes, please! read more

Your usual local diner food. Good atmosphere, saw lots of obviously locals dining here. First time I've ever had my omelette topped with melted slices of American cheese. It was odd. Didn't like it. The biscuit was flaky as expected and the grits were fine. read more

Don't dress up! As the name implies, it's the "Country" Cafe. As if you were visiting your grandmother's place! Home style food - I had the meatloaf (generous portion) with real mashed potatoes and beans. Tasted great, prices great, great service, even though they were slammed. I'd go back. read more

Fantastic friendly service, and if you come often enough, they get to know you. Momma, Tracy, Jimmy, Renee, and Nick all do a great job serving up very good Southern breakfast fare (gravy, biscuits, etc) in a simple, comfortable, clean diner setting. read more

Had the hamburger steak Mac n cheese and loaded potatoes yum... everything was delicious service is fast and excellent. Wonderful southern style atmosphere and hospitality read more

This is a great place for a good ole lunch. Meat and 2 or 3, plus sandwiches and burgers. You cant go wrong here.

Oh yes, this is the place where dreams are made. The quintessential greasy spoon diner. When you walk in you're taking a step back in time, and I like that very much. It gives a glimpse of how much smaller people were 50 years ago and how our success in excess has changed our body dynamic. Expect more of the same here. I can't say that this is a venue for the health conscious, but it is a haven of flavor. Get here for breakfast. The cutoff is 11am and it's worth the price of admission. Biscuit and sausage gravy is the best I've had, so simple yet so divine. Parking and large groups can be a hindrance, but it's worth the effort. Just get here early... read more

Stopped here after getting off the plane to try a good southern breakfast. Really basic diner feel with a lot of happy customers. I grabbed a seat, and a gentleman wandered up and checked in on me. (Took me a minute to realize he was my waiter). Ordered a basic southern breakfast, food was fast, good and priced right. For a city boy from up north, I immediately felt the southern hospitality. It started my trip out right. It's not fancy, it's not gourmet, but next time in town, I'm starting here. Definitely give it a go. read more

This is a regular lunch spot. My husband and I eat here at least once a week. We love the daily lunch specials. My favorite is country fried steak but the chicken tenders is a close second. The sides and desserts change slightly from day to day. All the southern favorites are great. Mash potatoes, Mac and cheese, okra, greens.......and more. Note: they close at 2 read more

Country Cafe - An amazing biscuit with fried bologna - Southern Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

About as country as country gets, IMHO. I loved this place. Little diners are the best. They had lots of family running the place, with grandma even running the grill. The sweet lady looked like she was in her 70s or 80s but she was doing a heck of a job. The food is really good, all homemade, as far as I could tell. The biscuits were great, as was the blackberry cobbler. Lots of locals who just sat down and didn't have to order. The waitress just brought them their food and drink. I conversed with a couple of them, really friendly folks. The prices are very reasonable, the service is terrific and the food is very good. I wished that I'd ordered the chicken fried steak or the catfish (I was right between breakfast and lunch). They both looked great. The guy next to me was a regular and loved the catfish. Just a really cute, quaint little place to eat. It was just what I was looking for, some southern charm and eats. read more

this was my first time trying fried bologna. It was thick cut and really good -- almost spicy. The service was slow (for us) but the service was very attentive to all the regulars. I'm surprised there were no potatoes on the $10 breakfast platter but that's OK. The gravy and biscuits were legitimate. I love the tiny diner feel of this place. read more

Great food and better people!!!!! Fried bologna sandwich is the best. The breakfast is excellent.

I was at a loss of words for a bit about my post. I'll start with the staff. They were outstanding. Super friendly. My coffee cup never had more than two sips gone before it was topped off. I felt like part of the Country Cafe family. Food... They have what you would expect for a breakfast menu (oops, forgot the pic). I had a sausage omelet that was great (and massive) with biscuits, could also have toast, and gravy, could have also ordered grits. These came with the omelet. I also added a side of home fries. The gravy was food with the right amount of "bite" and was perfect on the fresh biscuits. The home fries were good but not wow or this would have been a five star. I had a seat at the breakfast counter right next to the cooks. The pancakes were fluffy and looked good as did the country fried steak. Good for you? Certainly not. Delicious? Absolutely. I will be back. read more

This place hit the spot. Just good country cooking. It aint fancy but the servers are nice and the timing was good. Country ham and the country fried chicken were the stars of the show. Everything was good except the watered down grits. The deserts were not bad either. First time I had pineapple pie and it was good. My girlfriend like the strawberry cake with real strawberries. read more

Great little place for a southern breakfast. We were greeted warmly by everyone. The food arrived quickly and was very good. It reminds me of the old time country kitchens.

I am digging this first visit. A team greeting with helpful service. The portions are bountiful and tasty. Country Cafe makes you want to support a local business instead of a boring chain. I did the breakfast, but looking at the homemade dishes on the board requires a lunch visit. Many thanks. read more

The food was really good. I had a veggie omelet and home fries. It's something about an omelet tastes like homemade that makes me smile. My coworkers said their pancakes were good, like homemade pancakes. Did get a pic of my food because I was too hungry to snap a pic, but it was worth it. And the prices are reasonable. read more
