Germantown Café has become a reliable fixture on Nashville’s dining scene by offering fresh, creative cuisine at reasonable prices, as well as a fully-stocked bar and an amazing view of the Nashville skyline.
Conveniently located just blocks north of downtown and LP Field, the Café is a perfect choice for a pre-theatre dinner, a casual night out on the town, or a brunch before the big game. And one look at the sleek and sexy interior lets you know it’s the perfect spot for extra-special occasions as well, with plenty of private dining space for just about any event.
Germantown Café’s kitchen specializes in straightforward traditional cooking with a subtle twist—but don’t worry, there’s no fusion confusion on display here. Whether you choose the signature Plum Pork, a char-crusted New York strip with mashers, or our plump, juicy crabcakes, you’ll lick your chops with every bite.
