This place is adorable. The decor is "rustic modern" and incredibly cozy. There's a nice outdoor seating area. The bathrooms are clean. I got a Yerba Mate green tea and my hubby got a cappuccino. Both were delightful. We will definitely be back. read more

Fantastic coffee shop with a great selection of drinks and treats. Good seating inside and out. Friendly staff. A must stop.

Love this place! Great food and best vanilla latte in town! I drive out of my way for this place!

I love this place and staff. My favorite is the Franklin Fog Tea....I am not a tea person NORMALLY....LOVE MY COFFEE....but every time I walk in the door I have to order this tea....so yummy! The staff is polite and make a great cuppa! Great location to take a stroll on the Westhaven walking path and then get a cuppa and chill inside or outside (on the rocking chairs). read more

Fast service and delicious drinks. I frequent this shop and they consistently deliver good drinks. The lattes are not overly sweet either. Bourbon Caramel latte with oat milk is my favorite. They've adapted well to curbside and pick up too. Keep supporting this local gem. read more

I love this place! The coffees are fantastic, the food is wonderful and the people are super nice! Highly recommend!

Came in on a Sunday afternoon. Not too busy. Took 20 mins to get 1 cappuccino. Although it was good, the high price for a small cappuccino does not make it worth it. Won't be returning. read more

Great coffee, wonderful and friendly staff. As a suggestion, I would only like to see baked goods that are freshly made that day. Other than cookies and some baked goods that contain a lot of butter to keep it moist, after a day it is dry and stale. read more

This place is nice inside, but they encourage and expect 15%-25% when you sign their iPad after waiting at the counter. But they don't want to walk around the counter to deliver your food? Not a great experience. read more

I'm always on the hunt for a tasty dairy-free latte and theirs (almond/coconut milk blend) is definitely one of the best in Nashville! Will definitely be back. read more

The coffee is simply the best in the area. Not sugary. Not fake-tasting. Yet incredibly flavorful and creative. I love the spicy mocha. The drinks and treats are made with real ingredients that taste like love. But the friendly staff is what makes this place our favorite. They're genuinely glad to see you and serve you. That's just so rare in hospitality these days. We just love High Brow. It's busy at times, but always a peaceful place regardless. read more

Best coffee atmosphere and great coffee! Their sausage biscuits are great too! The only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is because some of the employees are a bit rude and act a bit too "cool" to wait on you. Other than that great place! read more

The coffee and service are great. I love their muffins and lemon bread. It's a great place to meet with friends.

I've been searching for the best coffee in Franklin so I gave High Brow a try. Love the facility decor and location. Simple brewed coffee was fine. The Nutella pop tart was amazing and must have been hand crafted! Staff was efficient but not overly friendly. I will definitely return. read more

High Brow Coffee - Nutella pop tart...75% gone - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Franklin, Tennessee

See all

Was there earlier today- Latte was great- biscuit was microwaved , employees were less than pleasant. I couldn't get a "hello" or anything out of them. Silence is golden at a movie- not a coffee shop. read more

I went to High Brow Brew a couple years ago when visiting friends in Nashville and thought it was cute, trendy, served up a good hot latte,nice folks. I came back a couple weeks ago when visiting again and had a whole different experience; what happened? Most of my reviews say something about cleanliness because that's a huge factor for me - the place was definitely not up to high standards the day I came by. When I approached the counter, I was immediately informed that the espresso machine was down but that I could have drip coffee. I understand that things happen, and it's just a coffee break, but the young lady didn't seem all that apologetic about it. I did come in about 45 minutes to closing time, so its possible she was just over it - hard to run a coffee shop without the espresso maker. In any case, the drip coffee was decent enough and I do like the location. The wine & spirits place next door made up for my drive out there! read more

My experience today was very disappointing. First, the interior decorations is overkill Restoration Hardware and not very comforting. Second, I ordered a very simple Mocha, 12 oz, and after sticker shock of $5.75, I had a drink and the coffee was very dull. I get the impression they care more about their trendy image than to make a good, affordable product. Need better coffee and better prices, I don't plan to come back. read more

I always stop here on the way to work for an iced tea, probably the best iced tea I have had in a long time, I need to ask what brand they use. I love the decor of this place, it feels cozy and modern. When I am feeling super hungry, their biscuits with various fillings hit the spot. I deducted one star for price ($4 for small unsweet tea seems a bit high, although I do appreciate the food quality), lack of large to go tea glasses (notice a trend here?), and lack of lemons for tea drinkers. Do not go here expecting a later breakfast, as they often run out of items, but I noticed they have been adding more options so this may be changing. Overall great experience! read more

Only been once, but the coffee was excellent! Service was a little slow, but I'll chalk that up to it just opening. Glad to finally have a great coffee spot in Westhaven. read more

Giving 3 stars because the signature drink I ordered both times I've visited were delicious. BUT the owner is not friendly at all. Seems to be bothered With small talk. I don't live near by and I travel about 45 minutes to their shop. Every time I've said how much I enjoy their coffee he seems stuck up like yea I know. I went in for my birthday and let him know that I chose his establishment to eat breakfast and have coffee , keep in mind like I said I do not live close by any means and all he had to say was oh yea. No thank you or no happy birthday. Don't know if I will return. Too far away for me to be not even acknowledged. read more

A local gem! Delicious coffee (the Cuban is my personal favorite), and their homemade pop tarts are unreal.

Good coffee. Great cheesecakes and ice cream. Awesome to be able to walk / bike to get a cuppa.

HIGH Brow Coffee... get ready to pay HIGH prices! We arrived for breakfast at 10:30 and they were out of just about everything. We finally ended up getting 2 very old, dry muffins, their last sausage pennini that we had to split between two people , a cinnamon roll (that was good but small), two waters, a chi tea and a small orange juice and our bill came to $33.00! Extremely expensive, very dissatisfied and we will not be returning. We definitely do not recommend this establishment. read more

My first few tries were amazing. I frequent this place a lot to enjoy the view and coffee. The barista made the best lattes and gave us the most incredible customer service experience. We felt welcome. I'm not sure what happened, but he hasn't been there and my experience has gone downhill drastically. The welcoming spirit is gone, and instead it's your typical snobbery and feeling like I'm invading their space. I worked as a barista in a similar shop nearly 20 years ago, when these employees were toddlers probably. I don't need schooling or snobbery. I don't think they understand that customers pay their wages. On my last visit, the latte wasn't warm enough, the music was so loud the cashier couldn't hear to take my order and that didn't prompt her to turn it down. The baristas then began to blast the music like it was a club, but poor music selections, and laughing loudly and singing along like it was a game. You do not want to hear the attempts at the high notes. Actually the past handful of times I've been in, the baristas have done this- singing loudly like they're at home in the shower. I didn't want to be a curmudgeon, but the past visit pushed it over the edge. I have spent too much money here to feel like I'm invading their shower karaoke jam. read more

They serve one kind of latte I can't find anywhere besides Florida and it's amazing. There is one gentleman there that makes it perfect. The past couple times that I have been there however has not been so great. I used to work at a coffee shop so I understand the craft, appreciation of the beans and the environment. I get a cappuccino today not a big deal, but it comes out like a latte. they educate me that that is actually what I meant order. Then when I explain it was to go they just poured into a cup. The whole reason I enjoy a cappuccino is for its body. If I wanted a latte, I would order just that. I don't know/care if theres some "internal" things going on with that team but more so than lately they are not as friendly as they used to be at this location. I debated whether not to share this but being a business owner myself, I would appreciate somebody doing so for my company. Still an enjoyable place, just found it a bummer the past few times. read more

Excellent coffee and great atmosphere including a very rustic shabby chic style. Gelato is excellent as well. The food offerings are out of a fridge and not made to order which does take away a bit from the overall experience as everything else is so expertly hand crafted. Pricing is reflective of very high end coffee and espresso offerings so don't expect it to be Dunkin Donuts. Great spot to plop a laptop down for some out of the office inspiration that isn't the craziness of a Starbucks full of students, hipsters and high school kids. read more

The place is small and unassuming, but that's the charm. Around sunset, the view across the lake is worth the trip to the High Brow Brew. The decor is contemporary rustic and the attention to detail is perfect. The staff is always attentive and friendly. The time spent waiting on a delicious cup of your favorite flavor of coffee can used to drool onto the glass overlooking their specialty ice creams. Sit around the giant table and browse all the muffins and brownies and homemade treats. Yes.....try the gluton free brownie with a sunset. Before you know it, your coffee is ready. And it's a masterpiece that you hate to stir one of the many sweeteners into. Bravo.... read more

Good atmosphere. I liked the options for ice cream, particularly the cherry flavored one. The lemon cake was fantastic!

Coffee is excellent. Customer service/friendliness could improve. Really cute store and nice to sit outside looking across the pond.

A cute coffee shop with a great vibe. Drinks are delicious, especially with their housemade syrups. I recommend an iced Jaggery. Four stars because it's very small, not good for groups of more than two and a little pricey. They have mirrors surrounding the walls which sometimes makes me feel as if someone can read my computer screen from across the room and it facilitates awkward eye contact. However, I will keep coming back because the service is fantastic and the drinks are delicious! read more

I really enjoy the coffee and the atmosphere here. They also have dessert treats that are very good. Their pastries are brought in from a local place (Lucy's Kitchen) and they are all natural, organic, non-gmo. Define try those out! Overall a very solid choice for a cup of Joe and a nibble to eat. read more

Had a great cup of Americano and some granola in here today. Perfect small breakfast coffee joint. Great vibe. Cool people. It's a little pricey but worth it. read more

Loved our time at High Brow. Food, coffee, and service were all fantastic. It's obvious that this team cares not only about the quality of food and service that they provide, but also about the people they serve. read more

This Westhaven coffee house makes a great cup of coffee. I recommend ordering a latte if you're in the area.

Best coffee in Franklin hands down!! I lived in Nashville for 11+ years and got very spoiled with the amazing coffee scene so moving to Franklin recently I was so thankful to have found High Brow! My family and I have always felt welcomed every time we come in and the coffee has always tasted amazing! I HIGHLY recommend it:). read more

My favorite place to grab a latte. We come here whenever we get a chance.

Best coffee in Franklin and they have some great baked goods. Once they fixed the lid problem, I really have no complaints. I recommend the mocha, vanilla latte or just plain iced coffee. read more

For a while I over looked what was originally a dime a dozen coffee shop, but then I found out that it came under new ownership, and that changed everything. Not only is this new owner of HB bringing new life and relevancy to coffee and the overall coffee enjoying experience, but they are also quickly becoming a cornerstone establishment in the South Franklin West Haven neighborhood. Their matchless coffee soda garnished with a fresh peeled orange rind is just that, matchless, among any other caffeinated cold beverage I've had. How do I even begin to describe how amazing and delicious their breakfast biscuits are... Seriously the best bacon egg and cheese biscuit I've had in my whole life . Price point was killer to as it was very affordable for how large and high-quality the entrée was . They have a wide selection of teas , along with the infamous Pied Piper Creamery served daily, also mind blowing homemade pop tarts and pastries to satisfy any sweet tooth craving. Enjoy a cup of their local coffee while you overlook the scenic views and lake and get to know the down to earth staff. Come and experience the new High Brow Brew. You will come back for more and more. read more

Love this adorable little coffee shop. The staff was very friendly and the pumpkin latte I had was delicious.

Yes finally a specialty coffee shop in Franklin!! Every time Im in town I have to stop by here! Great coffee and the baristas are really friendly. I love the atmosphere and would highly recommend this cafe to anyone. read more
