The Loading Dock Cafe — Restaurant in Nashville-Davidson

Not just a coffee shop, they have loads of space, loads of art, & loads of yummy menu items! A creatives dream coffee shop and collaborative space! The menu is amazing with breakfast served all day, the syrups for coffee & lattes are housemade, and you can find tasty pastries & doughnuts. The space is connected to a beautiful gallery space, has cool artwork you can purchase, and plants are everywhere that are individually named...yes, they all have name tags! There are murals on the outside, outdoor seating and patio, monthly events, and a huge sense of community and inclusion. Michaela (hoping to spell her name right!) was so kind and informative, and I was impressed with her suggested drink! 👏 I will definitely be back...

Someone brought their sweet dog and they had scooby snacks at the counter, so dog friendly. The muffins and cupcakes are the yummy Costco ones. I want to go back for their high garden tea. If I can resist the latte. Get the bee sting if you like...

The Loading Dock is a cute coffee shop tucked into the back of an industrial/office park. The staff were nice and there was a decent amount of seating in the cafe and in the common area nearby. I ordered a dirty horchata, a breakfast burrito, and a birthday cake cookie. The dirty horchata was very tasty. The breakfast burrito was filling and had great flavor. The cookie was soft, chewy, and satisfying to eat, but I felt like the bakery added a bit too much salt to this batch. All in all, everything was good. I look forward to coming back and trying other...
