Perenn Bakery

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.

This was my first visit to Perenn as I have not been to the first Franklin location. I tried the matcha cloud which was so different and delicious. I also tried the Gruyère and prosciutto croissant, the danish of the day (raspberry jam) and a baguette. The pastries were yummy but the baguette was tougher than normal. I went on a Saturday morning so there was an understandably long line since it’s so new. I’d go back for dine in service once the volume slows down. I got some granola and it’s hands down the best granola I’ve ever eaten

I had that almond croissant, it was fresh outta the oven, and the best thing I've eaten in long time! Very, very good. Though I ordered a mocha, but didn't ring up..oh well. Alas, no cloth napkins or it would have been 5 stars! They did have China plates and silverware I saw...not sure what my friend got, but she said her's was good as well! Our 2nd time going here, but the first time it was soon busy, they were lined up out the door. Caught them at the right time today, short line and fresh out the oven. We'll be back

Very lovely and cozy atmosphere. I loved their pastries. The coffee was good too. The only problem they closed very early 2:30.

Heard a lot about this place and was excited to try out the pastries. We got 4 things, including almond and chocolate croissants and 2 kouign amann for about $30. It was expensive but they were huge and well baked. In general, the food was good, but the chocolate croissant was criminal. There was less chocolate in it than a mini Hershey bar. What you see in this picture is more than half the chocolate. Really over promised and under delivered. The actual baking was good. Great lamination and buttery taste, but this particular pastry was a sad site. Also the place gets really really busy (line out the door, etc.) after about 9:30 on Saturday, so go early or on a weekday if you go.

Most importantly, Perenn will be my baguette plug moving forward. Prosciutto and Gruyère croissant and the kouign amann were fantastic, with the taste of real butter coming through the perfect layers loud and clear. (Was excited to see normal ice cream stocked in the cooler. I hope they’ll get the salted vanilla in some time!)

So excited to have another amazing coffee shop and bakery in the area. I got the Vietnamese iced coffee and a pastry. The coffee was delicious, and the pastry was so big that I couldn’t even finish it after splitting it with my husband! I’m very impressed by the ambience and service, the staff was so nice. They have a great upstairs area for sitting, and you can even see directly into the kitchen. Super cool!

This place overall was fantastic and made a great start to our morning today! My husband and I purchased a breakfast sandwich on a croissant and a peach pastry. They both were incredible. I would have given them a 5 star rating however we also purchased chocolate bouchons for $21 (yeah, wow) and unfortunately they were dry and tasteless. We looked at the bag this evening and the sell by date was today so maybe they were a few days old. So, definitely do not recommend those.

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.

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!

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!
