Momento Specialty Coffee - HERMITAGE — Restaurant in Nashville-Davidson

Momento is a hidden gem of a coffee shop in Hermitage, TN. Honestly, it feels like it doesn’t even belong here. Step onto the patio and you’d think you walked into a storybook scene. The place is dressed up with greenery, large umbrellas, and enough tables to keep you from awkwardly hovering over someone else’s latte. It’s the kind of setup that makes you want to linger, even if you came in for a quick cup.

Now, looks alone don’t usually win me over, but I’ll admit—this place nails the vibe. On to what matters: the coffee and food. I ordered a 20oz iced Americano, black. That first sip had me nodding like a dad hearing the garage door finally fixed itself. Bold, clean, no bitterness, and a nutty finish that told me these folks know how to pick beans.

I paired it with the croissant breakfast sandwich. Sure, it looks ordinary at first glance, but the flavor proves otherwise. The croissant hit the perfect balance—crispy and flaky outside, soft and chewy inside. The egg, bacon, sausage, and cheddar came together like a well-rehearsed quartet. Savory, satisfying, and built right.

Bottom line: Momento is more than just a coffee stop. It’s a small oasis in Hermitage worth visiting. If you haven’t tried it...

Detoured on my way home to try a coffee shop not directly in Nashville and it was a solid place! I ordered a dirty chai and loved it! Coffee options and flavor was great and I would definitely love to be back to try something different! I believe it was the owner and I spoke and he was so sweet! He had great input and you could tell there was a lot of value is the work that was being put into the foods and drinks being made. I would definitely love to come back for actual food, too! A lot of the menu items looked delicious, but I had just eaten and chose to get the cannolis instead. I’m a huge cannoli person, and with the variety, it was hard to resist! The only downside was that the fillings for the cannolis were veryyy thick. It was almost like eating icing and because of that, even with them being mini cannolis, having a bite of one alone was plenty for myself and my husband. Overall, we really enjoyed our experience and will definitely be back for the coffee, and hopefully for a brunch date sometime soon on our way home! The area needs more...

I’ve gone multiple times to meet up with my friend and have tried many drinks. -The place is clean, bright, and designed cutely. Bathrooms are always very clean. -The service is always delightful and thorough (they ask all the questions about how you want your drink, clear the table for you, greet you as you enter, and bid you farewell as you leave). -I frequently get their delicious iced lattes. My favorites are probably the Irish cream and raspberry with oat milk. Their iced macchiatos are also incredible. The croissant sandwich I got was yummy and flaky. The mango smoothie didn’t have chunks which I might’ve like but the flavor was still great and there wasn’t any aftertaste like lots of places have.

-The prices are on the cheaper side for coffee shops. -DOZENS of syrup options -Perfect place to study or catch-up -plenty of convenient parking -plenty of outdoor seating with umbrellas -Even the music they play is good: not too loud or obtrusive- easy to shut out with your own music or perfectly good to listen to instead of your own music
