Even if you don’t love coffee, most people can appreciate a nice tea or hot chocolate every now and then. @NashBrews has been exploring the Nashville coffee scene since March 2017, proving that the list of shop options is more extensive than one might think. The account features independent coffee shops, which make great study spaces and spots to socialize with friends.
