2025 Centurion Award winner
Loveless Cafe
Best Biscuits in Nashville · Nashville, TN
Best Biscuits in Nashville · Nashville, TN
The Loveless Cafe opened in 1951 when Lon and Annie Loveless began serving fried chicken and homemade biscuits to travelers on Highway 100 at the western edge of Nashville. More than seventy years later it's a full-fledged Southern landmark, still turning out scratch-made biscuits with house preserves, country ham, and fried chicken to hundreds of thousands of guests a year.
The old motel courtyard has grown into a campus of shops and a mail-order hams-and-preserves business, but the draw is unchanged: the biscuits, the jams, and a genuinely Nashville sense of welcome that has outlasted every food trend.

Awards run one calendar year and renew only if the business clears the bar again. Selection is by published criteria, never for sale.

This page is the standing record for Loveless Cafe (2025). It was not bought, voted on, or sponsored — only winners are published, and an award that stops holding up is revoked, not quietly removed. For hours, bookings, and live reviews, go straight to the business itself.
If you’ve put in the years, you may already clear the bar. Evaluation is free, private, and never for sale.
