About the Business

Originally opened by Lon & Annie Loveless, the Loveless Cafe has been a Nashville institution for over 60 years. Although ownership has changed from family to family over the years, this locally-owned and operated gem now serves over 450,000 guests a year. Seen on countless TV shows and read in dozens of magazines, the Loveless Cafe is internationally acclaimed and frequented by locals, celebrities and visitors alike.

As many folks know, the Loveless Cafe is a very popular destination for locals and visitors, meaning our guests can often experience extended wait times. To minimize your wait, we suggest visiting during non-peak periods: Typically Monday-Thursday for early breakfast 7-9am, late lunch after 2pm or early supper before 6pm. Weekday holidays experience higher traffic volumes.

Another option to avoid waiting is to download our To-Go Ordering App and place your order for pick-up! This is especially popular with local customers who can enjoy Loveless Cafe favorites at home.

Established in 1951.
