It's on nolensville and easy to miss if you're not looking for it, but it's next to a church. There's some street parking in the front, not sure if there's any in the back. The staff are super friendly and there's plenty of seating. The menu includes coffee and food, however, the menu for both is pretty small. For food they had three types of quesadillas and some sides. The tater tot's are pretty good and the food came out hot and fresh. It seems like a lot of people come here to work, saw a lot of people on their laptops. There's a covered patio which is nice. It looks like they do game nights here and there are board games provided you can play. This is a cool place to hang out, but doesn't necessarily stand out as far as food and coffee. read more

My new favorite "favorite! Vibe is everything when it comes to coffee shops. I like to pretend I'm a digital nomad in some far-off exotic land. A key-board warrior, slow traveling my way through southeast Asia sampling all the best cafes. Ultimately ... they give good office xoxo read more

My husband and I met a friend for coffee at Primitive Coffee Company on a Saturday afternoon a few weekends ago when we were visiting Nashville. We'd tried to meet him at another coffeeshop we used to frequent, but there wasn't a table. I looked up coffeeshops in the neighborhood and asked him to meet us at Primitive instead. I'm glad we did. We used to live in this area, but my favorite Woodbine/Nolensville Road coffeeshop in the area closed years ago. Primitive (which I'm guessing opened in 2024 since that's the year of its earliest Yelp review) fills a coffeeshop gap in the neighborhood. With plenty of seating, friendly service, simple but comfortable decor, and good coffee, it's the kind of coffeeshop that's great for catching up with an old friend, reading a book, studying, working...anything, really! I'd happily return. read more

Cute and cozy coffee shop we found through a yelp search, hours were good so we stopped in mid afternoon. I got an almond milk latte with honey and cinnamon (delicious) and husband got this crazy seasonal latte (week of feb 6) with like pine and something else. It was weirdly good, wish I could find the menu for what it was. Sat on a smushy comfy couch and hung out for a bit. If I lived in Nashville I would want to be a regular here. read more

Primitive has such fun decor and friendly employees. My husband thoroughly enjoyed his espresso tonic, which we had read was the best espresso tonic in town. Their pumpkin waltz seasonal latte was yummy, too. Their breakfast tots were a good snack, but a little salty. I definitely recommend stopping by! read more

Occupying space in the Able Restaurant Equipment building on Nolensville Pike, Primitive Coffee is a welcome addition to the area! This brick and mortar was an exciting expansion for Primitive who have been around the city in variations for a few years. Cool to have followed them to this spot! The space is good sized with a few different spaces to hangout in. There is the more formal space with tables and chairs, a small bar at the end of the counter and then a separate room that is a bit more cozy. The whole vibe is vintage-campy from the exposed brick, old school stereo including the old school wooden/glass cabinet, antique-esk furniture to retro art. This vibe follows through to the drinks where they are served in time-era glassware or red campfire mugs. The menu is compact, but variable and features your classics to the boozy! For the booze, they offer a small selection of local brews. Coffee drinks range from your standard coffees to matcha drinks to lattes, etc. Food wise, they have a few pastries and breakfast sandwiches plus a few house items such as breakfast tots! Service was solid. The owner is really chill and friendly, as was the barista who took my order and prepared both my coffee and tots. I went with the cold brew and breakfast tots. The cold brew was okay. The tots were crispy and topped with eggs, bacon and beer cheese. Served in a small paper boat, they were tasty. Total for both out me around $12, which isn't bad at all. Parking is plentiful in the immediate area, but there is not a dedicated lot. There are shared lots behind the building and several street spots. Signage is limited outside, so just look for the Able sign and you are at the right spot. Overall, cool and chill spot for sure. Solid 4.5, so I'll toss in the .5 star because they are local and need to thrive! read more

Primitive Coffee Company in Nolensville is a great spot to stop by. If you're a coffee lover, this place is pretty much perfect--these folks really know how to serve coffee the right way. I tried their Huck Finn, which is their coffee soda, and wow... it's such a unique and refreshing drink. Highly recommend giving it a shot if you want something a little different. Food-wise, everything I've had has been great. I loved their kolache, and the tots are seriously delicious--crispy, flavorful, and super satisfying. Overall, great vibes, great food, and fantastic coffee. Definitely worth a visit. read more

Love this place! I'm not the typical coffee shop goer because I don't drink coffee, but this spot has other yummy options if you favor a beer or a matcha like me! I came for a game of bingo with a friend, and the vibes were amazing. All of the staff was super friendly, there was plenty of space to spread out, and it has a simple yet cute interior. The only downside is the parking situation is a bit stressful. I'd definitely come back for another event here as it was so inviting and to try more of their drinks. read more

I've hit the remote coffee work circuit lately and Primitive is top of the list. First off, they offer an interesting drink list, with all the usual options. In the afternoon, I'm a vanilla Italian soda drinker. Believe it or not, that's a very challenging drink to find. I'm usually assembling it piecemeal, but alas, Primitive has it on their menu! They actually have an Italian cream soda but that's an easy mod. The second seller is the setup. They have a more lively front room with music and lots of seating, including bar seating. BUT, they also have a bit of a quiet room. It's off to the left and has community tables perfect for working. The bathroom situation is also stellar for a coffee shop. Last up, they have tots and quesadillas. A perfect addition for an afternoon work sesh. A++ read more

Primitive coffee is a welcome addition to the south Nashville and Woodbine area. There aren't many options for coffee in that particular area so definitely want to support this place and see do well. The latte I got was very good and I enjoy the ambience here. It is very cozy and welcoming inside with a retro vibe. The service was friendly and I will definitely be back. read more

Not sure what the hype is about. They had ok coffee but nothing special. Menu would have helped.

Great addition to what seems to be a flourishing area along the Nolensville Pk warehouses with Dozen Bakery down the street. Ample space for quiet work time and gives a rustic coffee shop feel in the middle of town. As a Texan, it's fun to see the roast being made out of Amarillo with the Texas touch of doing kolaches as well. It's close to work and I would love to see how this area will develop and mix with the diversity. It's what the city needs where there's a mix of food, drink, bar culture in the area. Solid mocha. Solid cortado. Love they have kolaches, a little pricey but far and few to come by around town. And service was very friendly. Will be in. read more

Americano was very watery Dirty chai latte was ok, had good chai flavor but nothing to write home about. The place is aesthetically pleasing, giving a open retro vibe. Service was friendly read more

Phenomenal coffee! And everyone working here is so nice! I didn't try any of the food but it looked delicious. They have lots of good indoor space and outdoor space and the vibe is so relaxing and vintage. They make board games upstairs and sell them here! Lots of free games to play as well! read more

Fellow Yelper tipped me off on this spot near my home and I am in love with their vibe! While it might be bit challenging to get in and out of off of Nolensville Pike - it's totally worth it! Plenty of space to work remote, it feels like a coffee shop meets antique store with a vibrant, offbeat, vintage Americana feel...Doing my best to describe a vibe that just fits South Nashville so well! I am stoked to have another quality coffee shop near me. The coffee - we got 2 iced lattes to try and split - Vanilla Rum & Rose Cardamom (seasonal) and they were phenomenal - well balanced taste! I like that they make their own syrups in house and use larger square ice cubes that give it a whole separate vibe than a standard coffee shop. Staff was friendly from the moment I arrived! read more

This is one of my favorite South Nash Coffee spots. The building is easy to miss, but one you stop in, you will return. The staff is friendly and makes a great cup of (enter your choice beverage, mine was a latte today). They have a limited food menu, but the food is surprisingly great. Relax on the sofa, pull at a computer at one of their many tables or sit at the bar and chat with baristas. They have games and books and a calm inviting atmosphere. read more

Most under rated coffee shop in Nashville. Such good and friendly vibes! Lots of room for creativity and inspiration. For the lucky people who find this place you will really enjoy it. The urge to gate keep this place is enormous. My hot chocolate was amazing. read more

Such a fun space. The baristas are kind and love their jobs. Not the typical cold and basic specialty coffee shop. Fun camp vibes and the owner is energetic and fun. Cares about the community and the neighborhood. I worked several hours there last week and had a strawberry croissant, a honey latte and later on in the day an "Old Festis" espresso tonic. All very enjoyable. read more
