Crema's Take

Tabla Rasa Cafe is a charming neighborhood corner spot in East Nashville that's become beloved for its soft serve ice cream—a rare gem in the city that locals rave about for both quality and thoughtful touches like extra scoops. Beyond the ice cream, they're winning over regulars with strong, unpretentious lattes and generous pastries that deliver real value, plus a welcoming atmosphere that works equally well for a quick grab or a lingering sit-down. The vibe is genuinely warm and family-friendly, with staff who make you feel at home, making it feel less like a trendy coffee shop and more like the best version of your neighborhood cafe.

What to expect

Specialty coffee. A slow-sit spot, quick-grab. Pastries on the menu. Family friendly.

My new favorite routine – a Tabla Rasa latte + a JMAS burrito! It's a great duo, but the coffee stands strong on its own. The east side of town is not my favorite for coffee (overpriced mostly), but Tabla Rasa is my new favorite in the area. Smooth, strong and balanced espresso…

Such a fun little ice cream and coffee shop. The staff are super pleasant and welcoming with great service. This is your generic soft serve ice cream which means you can't go wrong. A regular vanilla cup with cherries hit the spot for a hot summer afternoon. It was not…
