Truthfully, about a 3 star review is fair. The food was…read moregood, not the greatest but good. The coffee was very limited, but they did have other bottled drink options which helped. It's a good place to go when you're wanting a fast grab and go with a black coffee. We decided to try the custom breakfast sandwich and got the ham with egg and cheese on sourdough. Overall, the sandwich was tasty. The hot pocket looking pastry was actually great, but the cinnamon peach "French toast" was not the best, it was okay in terms of flavor but overall a little underdone and dry. On top of that, I would say the service was very mediocre. Cashier seemed a little rude, and when leaving we realized no one picked up the order number that needs to be placed on the table once ordered, when trying to return it to someone before walking out everyone was just in a circle talking and no one acknowledged that I was trying to return this table number. So that really was a cherry on top of the environment of this place. Definitely a mid level experience.

Great vibe, super service, and awesome baked goods and coffee. What more could you want.read more

Wilson truly is a local gem, and the same could be said about his restaurant Sweet Dreams…read more Food: He offers a variety of items that one wouldn't typically find together, and he does them all incredibly well. Using Taiwanese quality import ingredients, he makes everything from scratch. From delightful but expected savory dishes like noodles, ribs beef and his famous wonton. Get 'em while you can!!! --to his staple traditional boba drinks; then the unexpected items like the surprisingly authentic Portuguese Egg Custard, which is a tart, flaky pastry wirh warm Custard and not too sweet (something my Brazilian wife absolutely appreciated for its authenticity). Don't forget the comfy japanese light cheese cake and delicious pie! Then running the astronomically good deal of a discounted cake cookie when purchased with a delicious boba drink that blows Crumbl right out of the water (and Crumbl is actually next door! Sorry Crumbl). Warm and soft on the inside, and a nice crunch on the outside. He went great lengths to ensure they weren't *too sweet!* Service: Wilson is always there, and he and his employees are always super friendly and attentive. Ambiance: The restaurant itself is a little hole in the wall, and oh boy, does the revenue that is not spent on a bigger place go right back into the products. If you see the PF Changs next door, pull into the lot and make sure to say hi to Wilson! Have a lovely lunch, a delicious smoothie or boba, and grab yourself a fantastic quality little treat...for the road ;) Enjoy!

This is the BEST bubble tea in Nashville- hands down!…read more Sweet Dreams Bakery and Bubble Tea is a small family owned establishment. It's hidden in the middle of some shops so it can be hard to find, but parking is plentiful. It's rather small on the inside but they have some chairs to sit outside as well. This place has some pies, soups, egg tarts, and of course, the best selling item- bubble tea! Strawberry Lemon Tea with Boba- This was the most refreshing drink for a hot summer's day. I told the owner that I wanted something fruity and she suggested this. I'm so glad that I listened to her. This was like a light strawberry lemonade with a slight taste of tea. Of course the perfectly chewy boba at the end of very sip was just the cherry on top. I had to wait a little bit for my drink and just hung out in my car while they got my order ready. They make everything from scratch so it was DEFINITELY worth the wait. I also want to note that for my lactose intolerant friends out there, they use only lactose free milk for their milk teas. For my vegan friends, they have coconut milk as a sub! I will be back soon to try more bubble tea flavors and some of their pastries as well!

The cake is very dense, what our family considers to be the ultimate texture for a cake. The frosting is super thick and very sweet. You can't eat too much at one time, which is probably a good thing. We had hoped for some sort of confirmation email to let us know the cake was finished.

I was pleasantly surprised to see that they had thumbprint cookies. I'm a huge fan of thumbprint cookies. There's something so nostalgic about them from when I was a child. What makes their thumbprint cookies the best is that they make them with caramel! Most bakeries don't sell thumbprint cookies and that ones that do, I've never seen them with caramel. These are little amazing nuggets of goodness! If their shortbread was a little more tender, it would probably be the #1 bakery item, I've ever had. The magic is in the caramel! It's so soft, gooey and perfectly sweet. It's the perfect pairing with the lightly sweetened shortbread. Since I had the cookies, I haven't stopped thinking about them. Came back into town for the day with my kids and I made sure this was our first stop! I will give you a heads up that the parking is a little funky, but nothing major. I'll be back soon!

Triple Crown Bakery occupies a charming old house, creating a unique grandmillennial atmosphere. It feels like a dollhouss. While indoor seating is limited, outdoor seating is available. Popular, expect a line and street parking only. The tea service (single $10, for 2 people/$18) was delightful, and the desserts, including a standout strawberry cheesecake and a cookies and cream option, were exceptional. Despite the wait, it's a worthwhile bakery experience. I love coming here, and it's just a lovely place to visit. read more

I think I'm addicted to the pavlova! I find myself trying to find a reason to be in the area in order to stop in for a pavlova! Also love the peanut butter bomb, macarons, and the everything bagel croissant. The only thing I have purchased that I didn't care for was the almond bar. It was very dry and had no almond flavor. My biggest negative is having to pay $4.50 to park just to go in and pickup some items. Wish they had more free parking. read more

When in Nashville...ya gotta check out a bakery. This was my choice for our most recent visit!…read more We rolled up after checking out of our hotel on a Friday morning. They were pretty busy and unfortunately there was nowhere convenient to park. Hubs let me out of the car and said he'd come back for me. I stepped into a comfortably sized, modern, open bakery/restaurant. You order at the counter. They have several cases displaying both refrigerated and non-refrigerated items. They also have a small selection of cute gifts/stocking stuffer or house warming type items. The line moved a little slowly but it was for a good reason; the employees took time to genuinely interact with each customer. They even engaged a little boy with his grandma in front of me in a whole conversation about his new school and even got him a special sticker. It was sweet, though the Scrooge-y side of me was in a bit of a hurry. You can also order a whole meal (mostly breakfast and cafe style lunch) here if you're so inclined, but we had other plans for lunch and so I just wanted pastries to take home. I ordered a peanut butter cookie, an almond croissant, a brown sugar matcha madeleine, and a chocolate cardamom madeleine. They pulled my pastry box together quickly and I was on my way to meet hubs in the car. The highlight of the items was the almond croissant. The almonds were toasty and crunchy and the croissant had gorgeous flaky layers and a gooey almond center. The madeleines were enjoyable though they were both a little heavy on the matcha and cardamom respectively for my tastes (esp the cardamom); that said, the texture was picture perfect, with crisp edges and fluffy, cakey insides. The peanut butter cookie was a little crumbly but pretty good too. Idk if anything just completely blew me away (the croissant got close) but everything was very solid and certainly enjoyable. If you're a pastry connoisseur, definitely add this place to your list to check out! Glad I was able to try them.

Then browse your way around the bakery and add your selections to the tray. When you're ready, the staff will ring and bag your order.

I randomly grabbed three of the prettiest deserts I could find. One was a cream and jam filled pastry, one was a cake, and one was a cookie. Each of them had such a unique and authentic flavor. After taking a bit of each one, I understood why this place was packed even late on a Sunday night. The best part is, when I paid for these three sweets, my total was less than $5. Amazing food for this deal?! Sign me up! I will be back very soon and buying more baked goods than I could ever imagine!
