We don’t mean to be cheesy, but The Grilled Cheeserie’s new dining concept sounds museum-worthy. So it’s fitting that Cafe Cheeserie debuts next month at the Frist Art Museum.

The restaurant, which opens Thursday, Sept. 5, will serve a fromage-focused, bistro-inspired menu. Alongside favorites from the Hillsboro location and food truck, you’ll find baguette sandwiches, charcuterie boards, grab-and-go options, and weekly/seasonal specials unique to the museum outpost.

Beyond the food menu, the cafe will have a full coffee bar menu featuring Good Citizen Coffee, as well as croissants, pastries, and other housemade items.

Cafe Cheeserie will be open the same hours as the Frist. A museum ticket isn’t required to dine, but if you plan to explore the galleries, be sure to check the exhibition schedule.
