    Thistle farms is the best! Not only is the mission amazing, but the food is amazing every time. The portions are great for the price and its always made fresh. Definitely go visit and support Thistle!

    We had a wonderful time stopping at Thistle Farms for a late refreshing breakfast and enjoyed browsing and shopping in their gift shop. The restaurant is nicely decorated providing a cheery vibe. My partner and I work in the mental health field and after being gifted a beautiful box of their products as a birthday gift, decided we had to visit while we were in Nashville. The mission of the social enterprise, to support women survivors of trafficking, prostitution, and addiction is of vast importance (especially in the times we are living in). I highly encourage you to stop by!

    Thistle Farms is such a darling cafe and gift shop in Nashville! We stopped in for brunch and I was impressed with their wide selection of unique drinks and food options. The pricing was very fair and proceeds support programs to help victims of human trafficking get back on their feet. Service was wonderful here. Everyone was incredibly warm and welcoming. One of the staff members saw me taking a selfie with my friend and he offered to take our photo for us. It was a little gesture that meant a lot! After we ate, we stopped into the gift shop where I picked up a few souvenirs for my Nashville trip. I loved the selection of super cute gifts and appreciated that the proceeds in the shop supported the same charitable cause as the cafe. Like the cafe, the employees were so lovely and welcoming! The entire place was cozy and spotless - down to the sparkling bathrooms stocked with soap and lotion samples. I'll definitely be back on my next trip to Nashville!

    How can you not give thistle farms anything less than 5 stars. The service, the cause! The food. All of it worth every penny! Also the comfiest seating in Nashville

    This place has been on my list to try for a long time and I'm happy I finally made it over for breakfast! The cafe is really nice, a great setup for a meal by yourself, with a few people or a larger group. You order at the counter and then select your seat. Their mission is empowering and I wanted to support them. Unfortunately, we were a little disappointed by the food, the bacon was quite tough and the cinnamon roll didn't seem super fresh, I did really like my coffee though! Maybe I caught them on an off day because other reviews are really positive so I'm open to going back and trying more of their food options. Service was good and fast, everyone was really kind!

    The story behind this restaurant would make anyone want to visit. We were there for breakfast and it was really good. I'm not a coffee drinker, but I love looseleaf tea. They have great options for coffee and tea. The breakfast and lunch options are really tasty. I look forward to going back here and trying something different. The oatmeal bowl was great! It's a really cool atmosphere and great for groups or just a little date with your significant other.

    Hands down one of the breakfast meals I've had in my 5 years in Nashville! I just happened to find this place when I was looking for a place in the area near the thrift shop I wanted to check out. When I got there, there was a long line of people waiting to order, but the line moved steadily moved and there was more than plenty of seating for the large crowd. I ordered the grilled ham and Brie sandwich with the soup of the day which was a black bean soup. My boyfriend ordered the chicken salad sandwich with the pesto pasta salad. Both were AMAZING to say the least! I want the grilled sandwich as I'm typing this! Also, I can't forget the latte, which was made to perfection. Also, the service was great. The employees were all very friendly and seemed happy to be there which is great to see. I have nothing but good things to say about this place and can't wait to go back!

    Best lunch in Nashville - great gift shop. Do not miss this spot if you're visiting Nashville. A+

    Very cute place- very friendly service. We were a bit confused when we arrived- some ladies were having tea and we were very underdressed. Order at the counter - I had the roast beef sandwich, my friend had the turkey avocado bacon and we both had salads. Large portions and really delicious and flavorful food. I would definitely eat there again. There is no table service after food is served- so no drink refills. But overall really good place to stop in for lunch. This is for the restaurant- oops!!

    Love Thistle Farms! I first discovered their products at Whole Foods. Their mission is to support women who have survived trafficking, prostitution and addiction. Not only are their products amazing but their cause is amazing too. Thistle Farms is a nonprofit social enterprise that provides a safe and supportive place to live for survivors. Residents and graduates of the residential program are employed in one of their social enterprises. Women have access to counseling, education opportunities and emergency financial assistance. The founder of Thistle Farms, Becca Stevens is so kind, loving, and humble. The whole Thistle Farms team is amazing. They create high quality products that are healing. Everything they produce is hand poured in small batches by women survivors who are paid a living wage, provided a strong benefits package, and a healthy work environment. Their products are thoughtfully sourced and natural. Can't say enough good things about Thistle Farms. Love is the most powerful force in the world.

    Highly recommend. Excellent food. Friendly staff. Incredible mission and products. Must go!

    I found this shop a year ago and finally visited. I don't know where to begin. The service outstanding. The food AMAZING. I ordered a lavender, honey, latte with oat milk. A vegetarian quiche. Fruit as a side. I also purchased snacks for later as I had company coming. Both amazing! fresh, and lots of flavors. Muffin and chocolate chip cookie. Then I went to shop...this mission is so dear to my heart I wanted to buy everything and say just take my money . Quality, pricing, selection, everything is hand made with a purpose ....ahhhh just made me stay longer and read. I prayed for the ladies while I walked around and sent pictures to my friends. Coming back as often as possible.

    My friends and I road-tripped to Nashville and stopped in here for a quick bite to eat. The aesthetic in here is just beautiful. The food is decently priced and tasty! The lemonade was DELICIOUS! Definitely recommend it. I think they have tea parties here or something like that, and I would definitely want to try that out next time I am here. They even had dozens of tea cups floating from the ceiling when you walk in. So cute!

    Goodwill is genuinely elite. I've made what feels like 50 donation runs while moving, and somehow…read moreevery trip ends with me discovering I apparently owned 30 pairs of shoes and enough turtlenecks to survive as a 1970s French philosopher for the next decade (oui oui) The staff outside are absolute legends too. Super kind, they come right to the car, help unload everything, and never once looked concerned by the mountain of unnecessary purchases I was donating. Feels good knowing all this stuff won't go to waste instead of haunting me in storage bins forever. More Therapy is probably my next stop because clearly I have a very specific talent for buying things I do not need.

    Quality/Quantity - My daughter wanted to see what a Goodwill outlet store looked like…read more See pictures. Books sold as each. Furniture priced as marked. And clothing, including shoes, were sold by the pound. Interesting experience. I actually feel that many of these customers plan to resell what they were buying here. Good for creating commerce and entrepreneurism. 3 registers, but only one was open. Huge line by the backroom "doors," I think everyone is waiting for the next "shipment" to get first dibs on the products. Good to know that most, if not all, our donations are used. Atmosphere - Huge facility, both indoors and their parking lot. See pictures. Service - Self service. Price - See pictures of menu. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success for the last 120+ years. We donate often.
