Somali Coffee Shop
1040 Murfreesboro Pike, Nashville, TN
Crema's Take
“Somali Coffee Shop is a no-frills neighborhood gem where expertly pulled espresso drinks come at prices that feel almost impossible—think cappuccinos and lattes under three dollars—served by genuinely friendly staff who know their craft. The atmosphere is refreshingly unpretentious, a real hangout spot where locals linger over strong, properly-tempered coffee and watch the game, though fair warning that the space itself is a bit rough around the edges with the charm of an old-school dive. If you're after specialty espresso drinks without the specialty markup, and you don't mind parking on a side street and hunting for the slightly broken open sign, you've found your spot.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Parking available.

Friendly, knowledgeable, quick service; great tasting, no frills, perfect temp coffee at an inexpensive price. I had both the Cappuccino and the Latte (on different mornings) for just under $3. The shop is between two other businesses with a small sign so it might be easy to…
