Loveless Cafe

When one thinks of the Loveless Cafe images of biscuits fill their minds.  It can't be helped.  Loveless Cafe is famous for its biscuits and rightly so.  They are delicious.  They're just about the best biscuits I've ever had and everything else I had on their menu is fantastic as well.

The place looks like an old hotel.  One that would be found on an old fashioned state highway.  Well that's because it was a hotel that was found on a state highway.  The hotel components are long closed, but now it is a small compound of buildings selling food, nicknacks or other American South items.  The gift shop is pretty nice and stays to mainly Cafe goods (I hate it when gift shops have junk that doesn't relate to the place it's at).  The other shops were "meh" in my opinion but still worth a look.

The biggest draw of course is the food.  It's great Southern cooking.  Everything is made from scratch (and you can taste that fact).  The service is very good with the server checking on their customers extremely frequently.  The meal my party had was the Family Style Breakfast #2.  It includes:  fresh  cut fruit, bacon and sausage, hashbrown casserole, sausage gravy, grits scrambled eggs, biscuits and homemade preserves.  It's about $13 per person, but it's all you can eat.  Please note that you have to choose between sausage and bacon.  I know it's a hard choice, but you have to.  The preserves were amazing as well.  I think those were my third favorite thing after the biscuits and hashbrown casserole.

If you're ever in the Nashville area and you want to try some authentic Southern cooking you should head to the Loveless Cafe.  It's located on Highway 100 on the Eastern side of town.
