Crema's Take

“Nestled inside Lolu in East Nashville, Subliminal Coffee Company is a craft-focused espresso bar where the owner JJ clearly lives and breathes coffee excellence, pulling shots with precision and generously sharing his deep knowledge of beans and flavor profiles. Whether you're ordering a perfectly-steamed cappuccino, a pour-over, or their standout chai latte, there's a palpable sense of care in every cup—reviewers consistently call it the best espresso they've had, with that rare Melbourne-level attention to temperature and technique. It's become a beloved neighborhood spot that feels like a real coffee sanctuary rather than just another café, especially rewarding after a session at the adjacent cold plunge and sauna.”

Subliminal Coffee inside Lolu is the perfect finisher after a cold plunge/hot sauna session. The coffee hits every time — and there’s something about earning it after getting in that ~45 degree water that makes it taste even better.

10/10 experience! This is not your average coffee shop. You can tell he cares about his craft and wants you to enjoy coffee as much as he does. You can buy beans here as well. If you love coffee, definitely go out of your way to come here.

I love coffee and am quite a picky coffee drinker. This is the literal best. The barista pulled the best espresso shot I’ve had. The lattes and cappuccinos are the perfect temperature. This is the best coffee in Nashville.

Finally !!! A real coffee that tastes like it was made in Melbourne!!! This guy knows his stuff, and happy to explain in depth all the different beans and flavours…. Only wish we found this hidden little gem a week earlier, as we really have suffered in the coffee drinking until we found Subliminal Coffee… check it out if you’re in East Nashville 🥰

JJ has a gift with his barista skills!!!! Subliminal coffee is now my favorite special treat when passing through East Nashville!!!!! AND the chai latte is DELICIOUS!!!!! Love the fact that even if you aren’t experiencing a cold plunge/sauna at LOLU, you can still swing through and your coffee to go at Subliminal! A NASHVILLE GEM!!! Can’t wait for the new seasonal drinks when it warms up!!!
