great variety, freshly prepared. Maybe a little noisy, but it's part of the charm. More

This place is almost worth a trip to Nashville all by itself. The college kids down there probably dont realize how lucky they are to have this place. However, its always packed, so maybe they do. Cool location, decent food, great coffee and AMAZING hot chocolate. More

We went for Sunday Brunch. The line snaked through the back of the restaurant. However, it took us only about 15 minutes to get through it. We found a table for our group of six no problem. The food came out promptly also. The food was good and a relatively good value. They had a great espresso menu. I had... More

This is our favorite place. Best food in town. You have to try the coffee and don't forget to try the daily specials. John is a great chef. More

Found this place on a local's recommendation while traveling through Nashville. I needed a place for a snack and wifi. What a find! (Note- it is a little hard to find from 21st St- I thought it was a petstore at first because of the dog on the sign. I guess that is Fido). Great atmosphere. It is deceptively big.... More

I grew up coming here for coffee in college with friends but never ate here until today. I had their omelette special and it was very good! I was shocked to see my old coffee hangout had such farm fresh and locally grown food. Yeah Fido! More

Found by accident -- Pancake Pantry line was a block long. Varied breakfast menu, food was very good. Line snaked around the back, but moved quickly (and was indoors!). Definitely fits the stereotype of the communist coffee shop, always worth a laugh. Be aware that you order at the counter, so you don't get a seat until you've waited in... More

The food is delicious, the atmosphere is fun and quirky and best of all, the food they serve is organic as they support the buy and eat local for sustainability theory. If the Pancake Pantry around the corner is packed, this is the next best option in Hillsboro. Plus they are open for dinner and have more lunch and dinner... More

Coffee drinks are very good. I dislike how trendy it is to sit at the shop and look like a college student or artsy person. They have sandwiches, soups, and salads for meals. They also have some very good dessert options. Tuesday is a good day to buy bagged whole bean coffee. More

A local told us Fido had the best breakast in town. We went for the basics - I had a yogurt parfait, he had pancakes - and I can tell you that they were both the best we'd ever had. I'd love to go back again and try some of the more speciaty items, but the yogurt parfait was crafted... More
