Perenn Bakery

So Dozen is my favorite bakery but now Perenn is also my favorite bakery. I love that they offer completely different experiences, vibes, and styles but they don’t skimp of quality. I had the marzipan latte, vanilla kouign amman, and fish & eggs. It was a great portion size, quality, presentation. I had recently bought some stollen as well (which is 10x better than anything I’ve had before), and have had the cranberry Brie danish. It’s all very good and solid. Grateful this is in this location.

Perenn Bakery absolutely lived up to the hype. We stopped in for coffee and pastries—coffee was good, but the pastries were next level. We tried the prosciutto and Gruyère cheese croissant, which was solid, but what really stood out was the bread itself: incredibly flavorful with a perfect texture—flaky, light, and clearly made with care. The real showstopper, though, was the jam and cream cheese pastry (The Daily Danish). Hands down one of the best pastries I’ve ever had. Insanely delicious, perfectly balanced, and the texture was flawless. I honestly still think about it and can’t wait to go back to try more. The experience was just as great as the food. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming—we were greeted immediately when we walked in. The space itself is super cute with a warm, cozy, and beautiful vibe that makes you want to linger. We’ll definitely be back.

My wife and I love a good bakery and Perenn is a very good bakery. The first thing you notice when walking in is the delicious selection of baked goods to choose from. We had the fig Danish, Kouign-amann, and pain suess. All of them were exceptional, with excellent flaky lamination and flavor. The danish was my personal favorite, as I’m a sucker for a good danish. Such a treat and well worth the visit.

We went to the Berry Hill location. We ordered the Seasonal Cloud Americano. This had whipped espresso and coconut. Surprisingly it was REALLY good 10/10. The Cold Brew had good flavor 7/10. The twice baked caramel apple croissant was delicious 8/10. The vanilla Creme Brulee pastry was delicious 10/10. Definitely will return.

This is the second location of Perenn in the Nashville area (the first is in Franklin). This location does not have the table service like the Franklin one does - this is counter style. The aesthetic of this one is still so great. The space is beautiful and while I don't know what it was before, it is really just lovely. There are a few tables out front, and there is both upstairs and downstairs seating. Place your pastry order, and they'll box them up for you, then place any other hot food/drinks order and pay. There's also a cooler with some sandwiches and other goodies you'll want to check out! For the best part: please get the almond croissant. This is my favorite pastry in all of the land. I have tried them in many, many places. In fact, whenever I travel (and I do so frequently), this is the one pastry I research and go out of my way to get. Perenn has nearly perfected it. This one was so freaking good. And it's huge. The staff is great. The almond croissant is nearly perfect. Yes, it's a bit expensive. But the ingredients are solid. The space is gorgeously aesthetic. The staff is fantastic. Sometimes, you get what you pay for. How lucky we are to have Perenn here.

Wife went there for lunch and said it was ok. Came home with a loaf of bread. It was hard as a rock. She took it back and was told that’s the way they are. She should splash water on it and bake it for a while. NEVER heard of this, but do know that is a remedy for stale bread. We tried that and still very hard. Very disappointed. We had gone there when they first opened and thought it was very good. Bread we had brought home then was excellent. Not sure what happened.

Our nieces took us here for lunch, they always wanted to try it out se here we went. 1. Salmon niçoise salad: 4/5 - very fresh and tasty, salmon was well seasoned but tiny portion and very thin... 2. Buttery croissant: 5/5 - very buttery, flaky and crispy. Very rich and yummy. 3. Baguettes: 3/5 - too hearty and hardy even after reheated. The crust was so hard that could break your teeth. Good flavor.

First of all, what a BEAUTIFUL building and atmosphere. As soon as you walk in the bakery, you are hit with the aroma of freshly baked pastries and bread. The baristas were so kind and offered great drink and pastry recommendations - everything was DELICIOUS. One of the best matchas & americanos my girlfriend and I have ever had. Will definitely come back, especially to hang out the cozy loft area again. :)

They've nailed it here. Since moving from Chattanooga, I've been searching for the perfect French inspired bakery. The pastries, the coffee, the ambiance- 10/10. Customer service was exceptional. Came at 11 on a Sunday, and waited no longer than 10 minutes. Huge props to the team here, keep it up.

All I do is think about the matcha cloud, haha! Seriously, that drink is top tier. This place is the best and I love it. The service is fantastic - the staff is so kind. I love the vibes upstairs. While they don't have full table service, they will bring your food/drink to the table. They also have a case of frozen items for you to take and bake. It is a little on the pricey side. It is something of a treat for me. While I wish it could be more frequent, I am not made of money.

The quality of the bakery and cafe is top tier!! My only gripe is how EXPENSIVE everything is now when pastries and coffee were made to be daily staples for a quick snack and drink, now costs you premiere prices for something that doesn't seem sustainable for a daily run. $21 for a tuna salad? $19 for a kale salad? $8 for a vietnamese latte? Mind you, it's a quad shot so it has extra espresso but there isn't a cheaper option? Great staff, friend and knowledgeable. Also the seasonal flavors of the bakery items are always spot on and consistent. Will come here but everytime I come, you have to know you're spending some money here. They have some of the best coffee in town too. Hot and cold versions are quality.

I was so excited to try Perenn Bakery after seeing so many cute posts online and was ready for some European-luxury vibes. Our experience was good overall, but I left feeling a bit underwhelmed. The pastries were delicious, though in my opinion, slightly overpriced. A tip: take a moment to browse the menu before hopping in line, because the cashiers tend to move people through quickly. For me, the standout was the iced mocha--so good! The interior is cozy and definitely a vibe, perfect for studying or catching up with a friend. I loved that there's plenty of seating, including an upstairs area.

Came in for breakfast Friday morning. The croissants are buttery and flaky. Topping options for the sandwich are a wide variety. I also got a dirty chai latte which was good. They have additional seating upstairs for larger groups

New bakery in the Berry hill area with a lot of customers lined up to get European themed foods/drinks. We had a collection of pastries all of which were fantastic. The Kough amann was one of the largest and heaviest pastries I've had as it was stuffed with creme brulee cream. Definitely similar tasting to the Italian/Spanish croissants we've had in Europe. Cappuccino also was great. Everything is pricy so just be ready to open up your wallet. Service was good and the interior was really nicely laid out. We will be back to try more soon!

I stopped by to grab some coffee and was so taken by the sweet treats on offer I decided to indulge my sweet tooth. The space is so nicely designed open yet also cozy. I had the Vietnamese coffee which was strong and balanced, I decided to have the mochi coffee cake which was quite and very different with its unique chewy texture.

Located off Armory Drive exit, this cute little bakery is such a vibe on a Saturday with close friends. Let me tell you how to navigate the situation... We arrived promptly at 9:30am to have a hostess handout menus that we can peruse while waiting "to get in the door". When let in, you stand in line to put in your order which you've already decided upon while waiting. It became very clear that it's a "first come first serve" with seating and it gets dicey. There is a gorgeous upstairs loft with 8 tables and numerous chairs. The benefit to this is so you can view the bustling fully operating bakery below. It's a French bistro format of seating, so be aware you will be overheard and you will overhear interesting conversations. We lucked out and shared a massive table with two other parties in a cozy corner. The overall effect was a moody, classic space with warm wooden beams and beautiful windows. I recommend finding a table in the loft if you can. The service was effective without being overwhelming, and we never felt hurried or rushed which is exactly why this bakery is so special. Our food choices were a bevy of different croissants from savory to sweet, but the salted caramel apple croissant was the ultimate winner. Tip: go early and as one of you places the order, let the other search for a table. Divide and conquer will result in a nice breakfast in Berry Hill.

I'm a little generous with the 4 stars mostly because I'm pretty critical with croissants. Overall, the vibe is there, the staff is friendly, and the space is clean and super inviting. Love the space and atmosphere. Glad they're able to open a shop in Nashville. I tried the plain croissant ($5) and it was fine. The flake was there, but it was a bit dry for my taste and needed a bit more butter. I honestly do like the croissant from other French bakery near downtown better. Also, Perenn sells their almond croissant for $8.50, fyi, which I think is a bit excessive but to each their own. I haven't even come across an almond croissant in LA that sells for that much...

This is such an elegant bakery. You get rich classy vibes in side. Super clean and welcoming. The staff was able to help me pick out must try's and how I wanted my coffee made. I have heard the Franklin location is the better one to go to but glad there is a Nashville option now. Parking was absolutely brutal middle of the day. But this has got to be on your list when you're in the area.

I don't know if I've ever had a croissant as good as Perenn's, even in France!! The breakfast sandwich is easily the #1 must try item on the menu. It's really nice that you can watch them baking the crossiants while you wait in line to order. Pricing per pastry is expensive compared to other pastry shops in the area, but it makes sense given they do mill their own flour (which is also sold in store). The iced vanilla latte has become one of my favorite lattes in Nashville, it's real vanilla that they use, no fake syrups. This location doesn't do full sit down service, so it feels like a coffee shop compared to the Franklin location. Get there early before things sell out if there's something specific you want to try, the lines are still long as it hasn't been open for long.

Damn good French pastries. The place is a little small at the front, but they do have room in a balcony area. If you see a line, it shouldn't take too long to make it through. Everything we ate was amazing. A bit pricey, but that won't keep me away. The staff were very polite and helpful.

The pastries (and really all the food) are Perenn are top notch. Love what they did with this space and am so happy to have them in the neighborhood. If you haven't been it's worth the trip. Perfect Parisian bakery vibe, great service, and quality food.

Ok the quality is really good. The pastries are fresh. It's cool to watch the bakers at work but what the heck...I felt like I was literally taken advantage of with the prices. My favorite pastries that we tried were the raspberry and cheese danish and the classic croissant. The baguette was also classic and delicious. The almond croissant wasn't my fav but $8.50...for a croissant?! Not even with the best quality ingredients does that price make sense! The icing on the cinnamon roll croissant had a strange taste to me but that's just preference. The cloud matcha was delicious but also $8.75!! The cold brew was muddy and over brewed. I think a dark roast is too much for a cold brew. Ambience was cool. Staff was great. But idk, probably won't go back. With those prices it feels like they only want the rich to come back.

Easy free lot parking. The breakfast sandwich on sour dough with bacon jam was soooooo good! Had the crossaisant snack cookie paired well with the coconut iced americano. Plenty of seating as well!

There was a bit of a line when I went, but it was worth it. I got the cookie dough which I'm still eating. A breakfast sandwich on an English muffin. A latte. An orange Madeline and a chocolate bouchon. Bouchons have a dear spot in my heart. I staged at the bakery in Yountville and painstakingly made thousands of those little chocolate corks. Perenn hit the nail on the head. Amazing flavor great coffee and a stellar cast of employees. Their leader Kasey was delightful, kind and patient. The whole experience made me feel seen.

Amazing pastries, great coffee, and a beautiful space to relax--Perenn is hands-down one of the best new bakeries in Nashville. Oh, and bread too!

AMAZING FOOD. Such a good bakery and coffee is awesome as well. The ambience is so relaxing and beautiful.

Such a lovely spot to meet with friends ~ for a good long chat and spectacular food! Our servers were fabulous, but, they always are! I've been three times in the past two weeks...it's so good! Take the pressure off and make reservations!!

great aesthetic and pastries! the staff is very friendly. not many places to sit. I got the egg sandwich on homemade English muffin. I wish it came with some greens, I didn't love it. the matcha was really good.

Had no idea I was stopping by on opening day! My latte was fantastic and the service outstanding. Such a cute place and the dining area upstairs is so cozy. Croissants weren't quite ready when I stopped in, which just means I have to return!

Food was average, not fresh and way overpriced, but bread was good. If I go back, I'd just do a pastry n coffee. Lil brunette waitress w/ponytail was EXTREMELY rude and dismissive when she dropped off my sandwich. I said, "thank you" and she gave a small grunt which made paying $20 for an average sandwich even less tolerable. One plus, the cashier was warm & delightful!!! Funny thing is my husband and I were just in Rye,NY, a lovely suburb of Manhattan, and we paid $11 for a more elaborate sandwich that came on an Italian baguette, and honestly we could have split it. These store owners in Nashville in general are overpricing everything! They must think people here aren't well traveled or that we're stupid.

I love the food, atmosphere, service. My only complaint is that they are pricey, but honestly they are worth it for a special treat.

I travel some for work and had the pleasure of being taken to Perenn Bakery in Reno. I was impressed walking in. It was spotlessly clean and bright. I could see the product being made through the ample viewing windows. The wait staff was polite with smiles, not often seen by today's workers. My host pointed out the owner who herself was beautiful. I noticed she was in the kitchen inspecting each plate before it went out. The lunch was exceptional. I took some pastries with me when I left. They were the best I've had. To my delight I learned that Aubrey and Tyler, the owners, have recently moved to Tennessee and will be opening a Perenn in my home city of Nashville. I can't wait to take my family and friends. It did not surprise me to learn that both Tyler and Aubrey are both graduates of the famous culinary school in New York, the Culinary Institute of America, where excellence is instilled. Excellence may be coming back in style in the United States and Perenn is at the tip of the spear.
