Café Roze is a chic all-day spot in Nashville that serves delicious elevated American fare, great coffee, and artisan cocktails in a cozy, vibrant atmosphere.
"Cafe Roze is a bright, airy spot that’s a nice choice for an intimate (read: small) weekend brunch, an effortless Thursday lunch, or a light Monday night dinner. The breakfast menu has some tasty selections that veer into crunchy LA territory, like ginger mango smoothies, sipping broth, and bowls of beet tahini, turmeric eggs, and lentils, but there are also smashburgers and stout waffles on there because, you know, balance. If the morning’s gotten away from you, lunch and dinner are tasty too, especially if you order the paprika chicken or pork milanese." - jackie gutierrez jones 2, ann walczak, adam sloan
"In East Nashville, Cafe Roze is holding it down with its “Salt and Spirit” happy hour Monday through Friday from 4 to 6 p.m. Order from six different varieties of martinis for $9 each and glasses of prosecco or sparkling rosé for $7. Pair them with $2 oysters in a preserved lemon mignonette, $5 crudite, and $3 fries." - Ellen Fort
"WHEN: Monday-Friday, 4-6pm THE DEAL: $2 oysters, $3 french fries, $5 crudité, $8 martinis, $6 cava and sparkling rose Only one Nashville spot has the confidence to call its Happy Hour “Salt & Spirit.” And you know what? Cafe Roze delivers on both. Oysters come with a classic mignonette and Bloody Mary sauce, and plates of french fries are easy to eat and difficult to share. They have six varieties of gin martinis, including one with maraschino cherry liqueur and sweet vermouth, and a spirit-forward vesper or dirty martini. Fair warning: There’s no prize for ordering all six. If you’re not a martini fan, just order a glass of cava or sparkling rose. And maybe some more fries." - adam sloan
"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
"Cafe Roze is kinda crunchy, kinda mellow, and preternaturally cool—basically, the Kate Hudson of the Nashville brunch scene. It feels like grabbing a post-hangover meal somewhere in Brooklyn (shout out to the stack of New Yorker mags at the door). Except, you’re in East Nashville, so the upwardly mobile artist vibe makes sense. Leave the group hang for another spot: the space is small, but it’s just right for an intimate conversation with two or three friends over a quinoa-lentil bowl topped with turmeric-soaked eggs, a plate of stout waffles with mascarpone spread, and an espresso martini or a ginger lemongrass sipping broth." - jackie gutierrez jones 2
