"Cafe Roze in East Nashville is a nice break from the city's biscuit-centric breakfast scene. It's pretty and polished without feeling sterile, and will win you over with the details: tin ceiling tiles, a pink marble-topped bar, and fresh flowers on every table. Dive into the egg and avocado bowl with feta, lemon yogurt, and kale, or the fluffy waffle topped with mascarpone and fruit compote. Roze also has a lengthy list of brunchy cocktails, excellent coffee, and unique seasonal steamers (basically, hot drinks that aren’t coffee or tea) that you shouldn’t miss." - bailey freeman
