Demonbreun Street. The roadway’s pronunciation is a conversation for another day, but one thing is certain: There’s no shortage of coffee along this 1.2-mile stretch between Music Row and the Cumberland River.

Without further a-brew, let’s get to know six coffee shops located on the well-traveled route.

Just Love Music Row, 1528 Demonbreun St.
  • Just Love has been brewing in the neighborhood since 2015. The coffee shop’s exposed brick interior offers cozy vibes and serves as the backdrop for occasional live music. Try This: The signature Cha-Cha drink (dark chocolate, hazelnut, and amaretto).
Tin Cup Coffee, 1201 Demonbreun St. Ste. 100
  • Located around the corner from E+Rose, this spot goes beyond coffee with a variety of breakfast and lunch offerings like frittatas, egg and cheddar biscuits, and sandwiches.
Neighbors Café, 710 Demonbreun St. (inside 1 Hotel Nashville)
  • Level up your coffee run by ordering a blueberry or s’mores muffin, quiche made with Gifford’s Bacon, or the vegan breakfast sandwich. Try This: Hive Latte made with pistachio milk, sea salt, cinnamon, and honey.

Stompin’ Grounds Market, 201 8th Ave. S.
  • Bypass the hotel lobby and opt for the entrance off Demonbreun Street, where you can order a hot cup of joe, cold brew, and a variety of breakfast pastries from the Stompin’ Grounds counter.
Good Citizen Coffee Co., 708 Demonbreun St. (inside Embassy Suites)
  • The Nashville-based coffee company’s downtown outpost serves brewed coffee, espresso, and more. Try This: Check the cold case for Good Citizen’s canned coffee drinks.
Café Intermezzo, 205 Demonbreun St.
  • This European-style restaurant, dessert shop, and haven for coffee lovers is located just a couple blocks away from Broadway. Coffee specialties range from Turkish coffee and alcoholic options to drinks named after Bach and Mozart.

Thanks to your help, we’re delivering our Thanksgiving playlist just in time for Turkey Day.

Earlier this week, we dished out a request for the best songs about Thanksgiving, gratitude, and food — and y’all delivered with a feast of options.

We put together a Spotify playlist featuring reader submissions (plus a few favorites of our own) to serve as the soundtrack to your holiday, including:
    • “The Thanksgiving Song” by Ben Rector, reminding us that life never stops changing, and the arrival of Thanksgiving can be a moment for reflection and gratitude.
    • “Take Me Home, Country Roads” by John Denver, serving as the perfect song for your journey back home.
    • “What a Wonderful World” by Louis Armstrong, an ode to appreciating the good things in life.
