My favorite bakery/cafe in Nashville for years now. I have moved away but make a point of visiting when in town. Consistently delicious items from both the bakery case and breakfast/lunch prepared food menu. They have classics and more unusual combinations as well. I also appreciate that they have seasonal items that switch out. The service is also friendly, even during long weekend lines. My family loves ordering their holiday items (pies, sides, rolls, etc) whenever possible. And if you like coffee, they do a great job with that as well. The new location has more parking and better seating, which makes it easier to visit.

Honestly, the coffee was pretty mid. However, the sandwiches and salads more than made up for it. Highly recommend the bread pudding, it was awesome.

We pulled up and were wondering why it was next the train tracks but we were so glad we stepped inside! Great atmosphere and such yummy pastries, pies, and lots of sourdough breads! If you’re a coffee drinker they have some awesome baristas who make pretty drinks. They also offer hot breakfast sandwiches/food. My one complaint is one of the workers was a little cranky and short with us when we asked for the last display pastry. Everyone else was really nice and helpful. When we are in Nashville we will definitely come back! The almond croissant was really good, and the pecan bars we heavenly! Try the lemon lavender pie too.

I've been on a quest for the best french baguettes in town, since living in France. Dozen, you win. Chewy crust, big airy holes in middle. Pain au chocolate and gazpacho, also perfect. Thank you!

My SHAYLA! The best blueberry muffin in the entire world, and I love their vanilla latte. Staff is always warm, friendly, and helpful when asking for recommendations. I wait for the pumpkin cranberry muffin to come back all year! They are a community bakery at heart and can be found having pop-ups, donating proceeds to a certain charity in town, and more.

Some of the best pastries I’ve had! They’re so fresh and delicious, and I love how each month has different baked goods. The blueberry muffin definitely has to be my favorite though! I can’t wait to come back again and get fresh sourdough. The ladies at the counter were so sweet too!

I am so happy that Dozen Bakery has relocated to this new location! There is so much more space inside and outside - and there’s more options for parking! The food is as incredible as it always is. I highly recommend the eggs on a French baguette or one of the other pastries that are made fresh every day! The coffee is good, but definitely more on the bitter side, but those who prefer it that way will love it! It’s very crowded during the weekends but manageable during the week days. I picked up a loaf of bread on a Thursday morning and was in and out within 5 minutes! Don’t miss this Nashville staple!

Friendly staff and high quality all around. Ordered a couple pies for my birthday and they did not miss! The chocolate cream pie was one of the best deserts I’ve ever had - the depth of the flavor was unreal. We also got a lemon lavender one that was good as well, but didn’t touch the chocolate.

Amazing bakery and breakfast spot! Didn’t take pictures of everything but highly recommend the focaccia egg sandwich or getting the split baguette with a side of everything and making your own spread! Everything tasted super fresh and felt very clean inside. Lots of indoor and outside seating options. Latte was good, didn’t try any syrups but wish I tried their house made rosemary syrup. Highly recommend!

Went looking for donuts for a large meeting. Not a donut shop but had great other options. I got the egg sandwich with pesto and sharp cheddar. It came on toasted wheat bread. Wow. Really good.
