Lindsey StrongApril 5, 2016Really fun vibes!! Food was fabulous, allergy conscious and lots of choices! SUPER fun coffee drinks, in a cute part of town and had a garage door that opens for fresh air. 100% recommend!
H LJune 9, 2013I had the Grey Skies latté. (Awesome) The initial bite of bergamot was different but good! It's made with bergamot, espresso, coconut milk blend O&S chocolate shavings. Definitely different yet good.
Brickelle MeltonJuly 30, 2015I got the Huevos Rancheros with a side of avocado. A whole half avocado! Definitely worth the price. I also got a mimosa. It's tasty, but more pulp than I normally like. The food is AMAZING here!
Kelsey YoungApril 8, 2018This coffee shop combines 2 of the greatest things in the entire world. Coffee & Dogs! ☕️🐶 #Genius ... You can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. From coffee to food to desserts. It’s all AMAZING!
Gretchen HaysMay 26, 2015The Local Latte was SO YUM. The hints of cinnamon and honey were a subtle complement to its overall simplicity which made this choice so unique and delicious 💕
Chasity SmithMarch 18, 2018Espresso and Huevos Rancheros were really good. I do not like that I could not have mimosa and sit outside or that if I wanted a 2nd one I had to get back in line.
The local burger is so good. This sauce on the side is delicious as well. They have good fries but I think the salads are better. Delicious vinaigrette.
Melissa AndersonAugust 22, 2015Lots of great gluten free choice: buckwheat pancakes, GF French toast, not to mention Huevos Rancheros and many other egg and potato dishes. Local sausage a little spicy but tasty.
JosephJuly 1, 2014College type hangout but the atmosphere is very chill and accepting. The food options are perfect for lunch or dinner including a great coffee stop (whether it be morning or evening).
Oh man. There are many good things about this place. Make a meal out of two or three sides. Especially the cheese grits, avocado, and smoked salmon. And an iced coffee!
Damian BayonaMay 21, 2018Tasty meals and coffee with a laid back college vibe. Expect a line to order but moves quick. Plenty of seating. Good for a hangover cure.
A.K NiaziApril 22, 2013This is a terrific coffee shop and restaurant near Vanderbilt Medical Complex. Their MilkBone Latte and Vanilla Latte being my favorite. I always get the Steak Scramble, and it never disappoints.
Design*SpongeAugust 3, 2014Best known as a coffee shop, but I go just as often for their incredible food. Spanning an entire block Fido inhabits what was once Jones’ Pet Shop (look for the adorable old sign). Read more
Anna MorrisSeptember 2, 2012An indie Panera-like cafe in Nashville. Long lines on Sunday mornings. Seating can be a bit tricky, but you are likely to find someone willing to share a table. Cookies, coffee, breakfast items.- Kelsey YoungApril 8, 2018Breakfast for dinner 🥓, apple cider 🍎, organic muffins 🍯, the most amazing red velvet cake you’ll ever eat 🍰, & so much more 😋
If you're wondering what time you need to come to not have to worry about parking or waiting in line for an hour to get food, that time is 3 pm. Don't worry though, breakfast is served all day.
Justine MeyerJuly 22, 2013Yum! Great food and drinks, and they were fast on a busy Sunday morning! Local latte made with local honey and the smoked salmon scramble were both awesome!
Phoenix RayneJanuary 25, 2015Have someone with you. As soon as you walk in the door, one of you will need to go find a table asap. This place is always packed.
Simon GideonAugust 31, 2015Coffee drinks? Yes... But the food is good too! Unexpected standouts: Vegan Chocolate Beet muffin, Veggie burger. And there are always specials.
EmyJuly 8, 2011Visiting from Toronto, love it here! Amazing cakes, breakfast, lunch/dinner and coffee! For vegetarians in Nashville, this place is a godsend. Plus, you can bring carnivores and they won't complain :)
The Local Burger is delicious. Fluffier pancakes that put that other place that's nearby to shame. Don't let the long line deter you - it moves fast and there's lots of tables.
Lacey WeberAugust 9, 2013Super precious place! The food was amazing and such a nice atmosphere. The servers were very helpful and kind too
Cassie SandersAugust 21, 2012Local college hot spot especially for those who are visiting "home." Get some power tea and a kitchen sink cookie and bunker down for an afternoon of work or catching up- you won't regret it.
Manzoor FaridAugust 23, 2016The local latte was fantastic. I ordered it based on the advice of the very cool manager there - Cody. Definitely love the vibe here.
Robert ColesMarch 13, 2013If you're hungry, you have to try the Fishy Bomb. It's excellent. Smoked salmon on a bagel with red onions, cream cheese, lettuce, and capers. You can't beat it.
Get the veggie burger on gluten free bread with a side of fries. Prepare for a messy but tasty dish. Save the world!!- Harry RaymondMay 7, 2014Fun fact: the owner Bob is married to the Popsicle lady next door. Grab a milkbone latte and homemade paleta for a perfect marriage.
TJ BrandtAugust 10, 2011Give the Pink Poodle a shot, it's life changing. Ok, maybe it won't change your whole life, but it is really wonderful. It's essentially a white mocha with a shot of raspberry--strong but sweet.
Daniel PowellOctober 4, 2018Didn’t try the coffee but the breakfast food is very good. They have a basil/strawberry limeade kind of drink that’s great.
if you visit in the fall, try the football season or the sleepy hollow. they're seasonal, but so delicious!!- Harry RaymondMay 7, 2014Some of the best coffee shop food I've had. Try the fish tacos, grilled cheese or hummus bowl.
Jessica ToliuszisJanuary 3, 2016French toast was delicious. Excellent coffee. Worth the wait. Adorable atmosphere.- Sensitive FoodieFebruary 10, 2015Bongo, java coffee served here, plus gluten free pancakes and baked goods (while they last)!
Great food, but outlets & wifi are often off. Fido, stop breaking my heart: decide if you want to be a restaurant or a coffeehouse, b/c I no longer know how to tell friends what our relationship is =(
Josh LaboveNovember 21, 2014Crazy lines! The secret is out and this place is packed on the weekends. Grab and menu and get in line.- Sensitive FoodieFebruary 10, 2015Bongo java coffee served here, plus gluten free pancakes and baked goods (while they last)!
Emily MooreJuly 27, 2019The veggie burger was good but I’m not sure it was worth the effort to find parking in the area. I’d like to go back and try something else from the menu.
Wi-Fi password is "fidoguest". But beware, the Wi-Fi is often slow and unreliable and they regularly turn it off during peak hours around lunch.
JOBY SAADAugust 29, 2011Great people, great place. I like this place because they respect good signage. They could have removed the pet store sign but they kept it up and offered the best coffee.
David CalhounMarch 1, 2014If you visit during a Saturday or Sunday brunch, be prepared to stand in line. Any other time, fantastic place.
Joy Jamal EddineJanuary 18, 2017Best bagels I've had in Nashville. Make sure you avoid going there on weekends.
Great place for breakfast or dinner. Very low key and great wine too. Weekends can be busy.
Rory LedbetterJune 14, 2013The Grey Skies Cappuccino! So freakin' tasty!!! (Be prepared -- it's unusual and complex.)
Russell MooreJuly 13, 2014Order at the counter and they will bring your food to the table (self seating). They use doggy pictures instead of numbers to identify your table
Tiffany ForresterSeptember 25, 2014Everything I've ever had here is good. The lattes are a work of art and the sandwiches speak to my soul.
Brady KAugust 7, 2014Great food, coffee, and environment. Always recommend this place to friends visiting from out of town.
Get the milkbone latte. Vanilla, honey and graham cracker flavors are delicious! Lots of vegan and vegetarian options here for lunch and for pastries.
Sherie SwerdlowAugust 28, 2015Great burgers. I love the McFido with ham. Everything is delicious here.
