Truly, Hobnob Corner has a great wine list. This is the restaurant to visit in downtown Nashville if you want a nice glass of wine (or two, I don't judge) with your lunch, or perhaps even your breakfast (again, not judging). I couldn't help myself when I saw that they were featuring two special wines, and one of them was a Sauvignon Blanc called Sincerite. I had never tasted this particular wine, but it sounded special! And sincere! It was good, but maybe a little too sweet for my palate. Isn't that sometimes the way with those earnest wines? I visited for lunch when I just wanted a little something. So I got the soup of the day -- a bean and beef number in a tomatoey broth. It came with a fennel-seed-studded roll. The soup was amazing and tasted like something a mom or dad or grandma or grandpa would make: just kind of simple and hearty and good. I also got the Hobnob Green Salad, which is mesclun topped with shredded cheese, mushrooms, cubes of turkey and croutons. I'm not a big fan of raw mushroom slices in general, and particularly on a salad, so I picked off the mushrooms like a petulant child and ate the rest of the salad. My soup and salad went really well with my cold glass of Sauv Blanc. Hobnob Corner was very busy when I visited! Nashville is a place that gets lots of visitors, and this restaurant, which is located on the corner of a busy intersection in downtown Nashville, is no exception. But I was able to get a table right away, even though I was a party of one. There is no bar here, by the way. Even though they were busy, the service was quick and friendly. They also have a pastry selection in a display case in the front of the restaurant. You can pop in and grab a cookie or pastry, if you want. read more

We visited Hobnob Corner while spending time in Brown County. The place itself has a lot of charm and a cozy, small-town feel, which we really appreciated. Our whole family came along, and we were excited to try it out. I ordered the tenderloin sandwich, and while it wasn't bad, it didn't really stand out either -- just OK. That seemed to be the theme across the table. Nothing was terrible, but nothing wowed us either. It's a nice spot for a sit-down meal if you're in the area, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it. Solidly average. read more

Good, old fashioned place. Menu has lots of good comfort type foods. Building is one of, if not the, oldest commercial buildings in Nashville. They do stop serving breakfast at 11am and they do make a point of letting you know that XD. I had the pepper steak soup which was chock full of stuff such as peppers and steak (well sure Mike, it's in the name after all). OK well it also had lots of mushroom and onions and other tasty stuff like a dollop of sour cream on top and it comes with a nice piece of bread. I also had the smaller portion of the open faced tuna melt, it was a good amount to eat but as it was the "smaller portion" it doesn't come with a side which was fine as I had the soup. There were several items I'd like to try if I go back. Overall an enjoyable visit, the decor is what you'd expect from an old timey building in Nashville, rustic and lots of pictures of Nashville through the years. Food was good as well and server was friendly. read more

Being unfamiliar with this area, I truly followed my nose to this restaurant. The smell that came from this place was phenomenal. We were walking up the street and I said wherever that is coming from is where we're going to eat LOL. On the corner this civil war structure was our destination. We went inside and they took our name the seating probably took about 20 minutes but definitely was worth it you can look around and feel the history. The staff were nice informational and inviting. The waitresses on the floor we're hustling and the food was coming out by the armfuls. The suggestion was the roast beef sandwich, it is their specialty and it did not disappoint. It was truly luscious, flavorful and tender. Anytime that you go to this quaint little town of Nashville, make sure you stop in and have lunch at hobnob corner.. read more

Very quaint. Old building in the fun downtown area of Nashville. I got the tomato chipotle soup, which was very good. It came with bread - also good. The mixed veggies were tasty - broccoli and potatoes. I must admit that the grilled cheese was meh. It was a toddler grilled cheese. White bread. Processed American cheese. Fine for a toddler. But for a $10 sandwich off the regular menu, I was not impressed. But I did enjoy the ambiance and I would come back. I just would not get the grilled cheese. read more

One more five star review before they close! Good luck to the owners, chef and other staff. Sad to see them go!

We visited Nashville, IN for a family birthday. I called Hobnob ahead of time to be sure they could get us in and they were very friendly and accommodating. We were seated in a back area with plenty of room to visit. Our server was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. The food was all delicious! We will definitely return! read more

Hobnob corner is an iconic restaurant with a deep history. The building is 160 years old and is the oldest commercial building in Nashville. The building has served as a general store, grocery, drugstore and now restaurant. The fourth generation of the Miller family now runs the restaurant. I've dined at the restaurant several times over the years and always enjoyed my meal. If you arrive peak lunch hour, you can expect to wait for a table. Today, my husband and I had an amazing breakfast. The menu has standard country breakfast options and they also have a few specials. I had the Hill Country breakfast. The eggs were perfectly cooked, velvety and fresh. The bacon is good. The amazing onion dill bread is made in house and what I ordered for toast. They provided two local jams - apricot and strawberry. There was also a side of biscuits and gravy. The food is delicious. I think this is the best breakfast place in Brown County. My husband had one of the fresh cinnamon rolls. Wow! It was huge and sugary syrup dripped as he pulled it apart. The pecans on top were fresh-fresh! He said it was "Damn good". Mariam was our server. She was friendly and told us about all the in-house pastries. She kept waters filled and brought extra plates so we could share. Mariam was a 5 stars server. In the evening, you can have wine with your meal. They have an assortment of nice wines. The building is OLD. I didn't see an entrance that didn't have steps for accessibility. I'm not sure if there is a back entrance. The unisex restrooms are tight but nice. Parking is always a challenge in Nashville. I try to get there early to find the best parking. Hobnob is a must-try if you are in Nashville. read more

This historic spot is a must during a visit to Brown County. We dropped in for brunch on Sunday morning and were immediately seated. The service is friendly. I got the special omelette that was stuffed with fillings. The coffee was hot and strong. read more

The restaurant has a great, old vibe. Lots of history in the walls and display cases. Our service was top notch. Our server was very busy yet very attentive, checking in with us often. There were 5 of us. They had a good kids menu for our one child. We tried the pot roast, filet, and pork chop. The last two were on the "special" menu. The two that had pot roast said that it was really tasty, but a little salty. The pork chop came with garlic mash potatoes and asparagus. It came with a sauce of some sorts poured over everything. I think it would've been better with the sauce on the side. But other than that everything was great. Definite recommend when in Nashville. read more

Super cool older building. Staff was very nice. It gets very busy. We had about a 10 min wait at 9:30 on a Sunday. By the time we left it was very busy. The food was great and so was the service. We both got the hash but I got mine with smoker brisket. I highly recommend their breakfast. read more

Charming small town restaurant with surprisingly refined flavors. There is clearly someone in the BOH who takes pride in cooking. Broccolini and apple infused sauerkraut?? Micro greens? These ingredients would not be amiss in a posh pop up in a city. 150 year old building that you dine in is also cool. Worth the stop. read more

My wife and I travel from Fishers to Nashville IN frequently. One place we always stop is Hobnob Corner to get a loaf of their homemade Onion Dill Bread. OMG..... This bread is awesome. Definitely 5 Star. Get there early. Sometimes the bread sells out. If you don't want a whole loaf to take home, you can order hot Onion Dill Rolls as part of your meal. Today we decided to stay for a late lunch. I was surprised to see the Hobnob Corner so busy on a slow winter day in Nashville. I ordered the Open-Faced Turkey and my wife ordered the Pepper Steak Soup special. She absolutely loved the soup and ate the whole bowl. (I was hoping that she would leave a taste for me). The Open-Faced Turkey was good, but just okay. The bacon combined with tomato solidified the flavor. Overall, the food at Hobnob Corner is very good and one of the Nashville's top Restaurants. Excellent food quality, good ambiance, and great severs. Maybe a tad on the "pricey" side. If you are a Liver and Onions fan, give this Hobnob entrée a try. A hard dish to get right, but they "nail it". The Hobnob Corner gets busy and they don't take reservations. Go early or perhaps on a weekday. read more

We and another couple have eaten here twice. Two days in a row, we all loved the place. Has an old time feel and great service and friendly people. I recommend coming here. read more

Hobnob Corner is the perfect place to get a quintessential meal that is fully in keeping with the town's rustic aesthetic. The menu is straightforward fare with sandwiches, soups, salads, and the like. Nothing that is really going to surprise you and I didn't have anything that let me down. Looking around the open room, the restaurant is proud of its pharmacy heritage and calls back to it almost as loudly as the floorboards that squeak as patrons and waitstaff make their way around the tables. Easy to find, easy to find seating, and easy to enjoy! read more

Hobnob Corner in the heart of Nashville, Indiana is in a historic building which makes your visit truly special. When you walk in, you feel like you're going back in time and can appreciate the simplicity of earlier times. My wife and I had a great first experience. Our server was friendly and warm, and checked on us often. The menu is somewhat simple, but still offers a good variety of starters, salads, entrees, and desserts.

Quick lunch here didnt let us down. I've been coming to Hobnob since I was a kid, and have visited many times over the years. Whether you want lunch, a baked good, or a nice dinner, it is consistently good. I wish we lived closer to come back and have a slower evening meal with wine. Kids meals include a cookie, which is fun :) read more

My partner and I went on a day trip to Nashville. For a late lunch, we stopped in at the Hobnob ! I had never been before and it was recommended that we try it. I ordered the spinach salad and my partner ordered the cheeseburger and fries. My salad came with a roll that was honestly so good, I forgot to take a photo before eating it. Everything was super fresh and tasty ! The dressing was their creamy house vinaigrette, which was really good. Usually I don't like to stray too far from what I'm used to when it comes to salad dressing, but I'm glad I did. My partner even enjoyed it with his fries. My partner's cheeseburger didn't seem to be anything special, however. He said it was greasy and pretty much an average cheeseburger. It wasn't seasoned or had anything to really commit to memory. Though, I'm certain they're not known for their burgers. The service was good. We were seated almost immediately and given waters right away. She checked on us an adequate amount of times without forgetting on us, but also not being overwhelming. Very friendly ! And even offered us specials at the start of our meal. The interior was super cute ! There were fairy lights near the ceiling that made the old charm of the place really pop. It really reminded me of an "old time" restaurant or some such. On the back of the menu, it stated that it used to be a drug store. I can definitely see that side of it ! read more

Checked this place out for dinner. Love the atmosphere and that this still has the look of an old pharmacy. Our server was super friendly and attentive. We ordered the green salad and cup of wild rice chicken soup for starters. For our entree, we ordered from the specials - Pork chop and the Duck breast. All of the food was above par for a place considered a "diner". Would say this was the best meal we had in Nashville and at a reasonable price. If you are in town check it out. read more

This is the second time I've subbed at the Hobnob and tonight their special, BBQ Pork Tacos, were on fire ! Pork, BBQ, bacon jack, cabbage, pico de Gallo & feta cheese on flour tortillas. *Chef's kiss* I also ordered the bread pudding to go, it was a yummy late night dessert. I'm a history nerd, so I love that they have the story of the building of the menu. And photos from throughout the years along the wall, as well as artifacts on display. read more

This is a little old school diner, built in a historic corner building in the heart of the Nashville strip. Very busy when the kitschy town is in swing, but we got seated quickly because we were very late for lunch. The wait staff were friendly but spread thin. The menu was not as expensive as the classic Greek diner or family restaurant, but more focused on what they do instead of trying to do everything. The pork tenderloin on the sandwich was delicious and juicy. It was one of the best tenderloins I've ever had! The broccolini on the side was also tasty. The bread pudding for dessert not as exciting. It tasted good, but it looked like a flan in a bowl of cream. Not a classic bread pudding where you notice the bread. My wife's apple crisp was more a classic dessert and tasted very good as well. read more

Wholesome environment. Love the wooden floors. Simple menu. Would definitely come back.

This is a cozy place that matches the Nashville, Indiana vibe. The menu is simple and the service staff informs you of any extra specials that may not appear on the menu. My bratwurst was full of flavor and cooked very well. The sides for this meal were the true highlight: spectacular sauerkraut, salty sautéed long greens, and rustic tasting potatoes. An absolute comfort meal. Nashville is about a 30 minute drive for us, but it is well worth the drive! read more

We were in town for our 35th wedding anniversary. We discovered The Hobnob Corner for lunch and enjoyed it so much that we returned for dinner. For lunch I started with a cup of their creamy spinach soup. It was savory and creamy without being too thick. It had ham, spinach and red peppers. We were served the best warm and soft rye rolls. I also had the quiche of the day which had mushrooms, peppers, ham and it was silky, and cooked to perfection with a buttery crust. It was served with a fresh salad with a light vinaigrette and cantaloupe. My husband had the tenderloin sandwich. It was a nice size tenderloin served with amazing fresh steak fries. We also took home a Bear Claw which was delicious with cinnamon, a light glaze and pecans. We went back for dinner. I had the Shrimp and Grits. Eight large shrimp served over a Grits cake, creamy and cheesy inside with a nice crust outside. All surrounded by a creamy sausage gravy. The sausage was a little salty, but overall delicious. Steve had the piece of resistance, a Berkshire grilled pork chop on a grainy mustard sauce with sweet potato wedges and Brussels Sprouts. Delicious! The restaurant was located in an old apothecary and we enjoyed looking at the old photos of the early Brown County years. Great service and good food made the Hobnob Corner our favorite place to eat. Don't forget to grab some of their baked goods and bread at the register. Thanks! read more

Party of 4 visiting the area on a Saturday and stopped here for dinner. Plentiful of on street parking and the restaurant is quaint with a timeless storefront and country store atmosphere as you enter. I commented on the vibe of the layers and layers of paint on the front door, the squeaky rough cut wood floors, and the glass display class up front loaded with an abundance of pastries and cookies. We were seated quickly and scanned the large menu. Choices were eclectic and crowd pleasing (jambalaya, Reuben, burgers) and also packed with regional homemade dishes (pork tenderloin, pot roast). I chose the beef liver and onions and was extremely happy with my choice. Two slices of very tender liver sautéed with onions and bathed in a red wine sauce accompanied by sautéed broccoliini. Dessert was a slice of fluffy coffee toffee pie and my friends each had strawberry shortcake. Service was excellent and friendly. We were all satisfied and happy with our choices and would be happy to visit again. read more

Hob Nob Corner is a restaurant deserving of 5-stars more than most retaurants. In this case, it isn't about being the best, or the most popular (though the Hob Nob is popular), and it certainly isn't about being the most attractive. What it is about is the experience. Hob Non Corner transports you back in time to an era that will never be seen again. Hob No Corner, or as most people call it "The Hob Nob" started life a sundries and dry goods store in 1868 and later became Miller's Drug Store which featured a soda fountain. The Hob Nob as we know it today started in 1979 and is still run by the same family today. The building remains basically untouched. The original wood floors are still there. They have been worn with time. They are uneven and they squeak. The soda fountain bar is still there as is the huge shelf where jars of remedies were stored. The center piece of the shelves is a large mirror squarely place in the center. Pictures from a bygone era are scattered the walls and if you look closely, give you a sense of what life was like in Nashville, Indiana during the late 1800's and early 1900's. The staff are some of the nicest people you will ever meet. Outside of the family, some of the staff have been there for a very long time. They make you feel welcome and part of the family. The Hob Nob is the defacto place where the locals go, mostly for breakfast when the tourists aren't filling the place to capacity. In a word... home. The building, the history, and the staff alone aren't what keep the people coming back, it's the food. The food is comfort with class. The chef at the Hob Nob uses locally sourced goods from all round the area. Everything is scratch made and I mean everything! So much so that when you check out, there is a case full of breads and cookies that are made in the kitchen. So when you leave full and content, you can take some of the Hob Nob with you. I have eaten at the Hob Nob for almost as long as they have been open and I will continue to go for as long as I can. Today, I will highlight my favorite breakfast offering... Logger's Hash. The Logger's Hash consists of two eggs cooked how you like atop a bed of hash-browned potatoes, onions, red & green peppers, and smoked sausage. You get your choice of toast - Onion Dill, Wheat, or White or English muffin. My favorite and go-to is the Onion Dill bread with strawberry jam. Now, I know what you are thinking.... Onion Dill bread does not go with strawberry jam. Oh how wrong you are! I could subsist on a breakfast of just Onion Dill bread and strawberry jam. I have converted many people! All the other items on the menu are just as good and deserve a cult following as I do with the Logger's Hash, Onion Dill bread, and the strawberry jam. A big plus is eating at Hob Nob Corner won't break the bank. The prices are good, the amount of food you get is fair, and the food is always good! There are so many more things to do in Nashville, which you should make plans to come see and do, and the Hob Nob should be number one on your radar for places to eat! read more

Outstanding food everytime we go there! We're in Nashville for a few nights and have eaten there twice already, considering a third visit. Service is very good yet sort of laid back.

Stopped in while in Nashville for my wife's birthday. Waitress was right on top of things and cheerful. She ordered the bratwurst with sauerkraut, and said it was absolutely wonderful. I ordered the open face turkey sandwich, it was a bit odd. Wheat bread on bottom was very dry, had lettuce and tomato on it then a single slice of ham with 2 strips of pork belly smothered in cheese. Great atmosphere in building. Wait staff was attentive to our needs. All in all was a good experience! read more

The waiting staff was just okay. They weren't super attentive and paid little attention to people coming in to put their name on the list.

Top notch food in an old building. Don't skip just based on the looks. Love old style building with wood floors that look like they haven't been sanded or cleaned in 80 years. Wide range of menu items with both meat and vegetarian options. The specials have a unique flair that mimics finer dining. Only giving it 4 stars instead of 5 because they were out of chicken tinders at 5PM on a weeknight. Wish they had a beer/liquor license, but you can get wine by the glass or bottle. read more
