Elliston Place Soda Shop Review - Elliston Place - Nashville - The Infatuation
"This Nashville classic has been serving diner-style breakfasts and meat-and-three lunches and dinners since 1939. The shop leans hard into the nostalgia, but resists feeling like theme park—construction workers, police officers, and office workers are all posted up on the vinyl seats waiting for their first coffee of the day. The breakfast options are simple, but done well: the buttermilk biscuits are moist, the pepper gravy flavorful, and the creamy cheese grits will satisfy even the most discerning porridge enthusiasts. If you’ve got a little space left after all those carbs, the shop does still indeed serve up old-timey sodas (with phosphates!) and milkshakes (with malt!). There’s also a case of meringue-topped pies made daily by the resident pie lady, and you should absolutely get a slice on your way out." - Bailey Freeman
