The Well Coffeehouse
690 Old Hickory Blvd, Brentwood, TN
Crema's Take
“This nonprofit coffeehouse turns every cup into clean water for communities in need, making your morning ritual genuinely meaningful. Their espresso and pour-overs are serious enough to impress home-brewing perfectionists, while their surprisingly excellent gluten-free options and chipotle chicken sandwich prove they're just as committed to quality food, all served up in a laid-back atmosphere that's equally welcoming for a solo work session or bringing the whole family.”

amaze vibes. top 5 hot latte i’ve ever had, thank goodness i ordered a large. gives the one i make at home (that i have perfected) a run for its money. only gripe is that the lid for the large to-go cup lowkey doesn’t fit so you have to be careful walking around with it when it’s full
Stopped by on my way out of town and was pleasantly surprised at their gluten free options. I got the chipotle chicken sandwich with gluten free bread and it was soooo good!! I was a tad worried about the spicy chipotle aioli but it paired so well with the sandwich. The picture only shows half the sandwich because I forgot to take a picture before devouring the first half😅. Would definitely go again!!
Have gone to this coffeeshop for well over 3 years now (no pun intended) as its one of the closest coffeeshops near our place and it was a great atmosphere. The main selling point for the Well Coffeehouse all these years was the atmosphere - the rustic feel was unmatched in Nashville and it showcased its mission (to build wells across the world for those who need them) prominently with photos of the children they hoped to help with their work. The coffee itself was decent, but they do not use espresso beans for their espresso. The service is good. I have been to The Well Coffeehouse twice since they rebranded, and it is no longer the same study environment. They have replaced the faces of the children from third world countries for plain white and blue everywhere. Their mission is barely seen anywhere in their shop besides a couple water canteens by the bathroom. The overall rustic feel has been exchanged for a minimalist look that feels devoid of life. While vibes are not the end all for businesses, they mean a lot in coffeeshops. Unfortunately, the vibes are no longer good here and I will be taking my business elsewhere.
Amazing Christmas blend coffee. Rare to find Christmas blends as light roasts, and from India! Chicken Chipotle sandwich was nice. Store layout and area is great! Kid friendly with a park next door.
I love the mission of The Well Coffeehouse! They “turn coffee into water”. They are a non profit that uses there platform to help provide clean drinking water to other countries that don’t have the access to clean water. We had a very good meal there too! Unfortunately, I failed to take pictures before we started eating. The one picture is a breakfast burrito. Sweet potatoes, bacon, egg and cheese. The other picture is a Brunch Bowl. Scrambled eggs, bacon, arugula on a bed or roasted sweet potatoes. Can’t wait to return when back in the Nashville area.
