Cozy café by day, amaro bar by night, Verna is in the heart of midtown Nashville .

Come in the morning for specialty coffee and a menu that blends Japanese and New Orleans comfort food. Stay into the evening — the patio lights up, the Backbar opens, and the neighborhood shows up.

Whether you're grabbing a latte before work, lingering over brunch, or settling in for late-night drinks and live music, Verna has a seat for you.
