The Butter Milk Ranch is Nashville’s premier Small Batch Bakery and Day Dining restaurant. Located in the popular 12th South district, there’s a little something for everyone at the Ranch: our small batch bakery where everything is made from scratch, a quick service counter for on-the-go guests, and a full service dining room for those who want to have a drink and stay a little while.

About The Butter Milk Ranch

The smell of freshly baked croissants and a stunning display of pastries greets guests at the Ranch as soon as they enter the front door.

Our bakery team, led by Pastry Chef and Partner Alyssa Gangeri, prepares everything fresh from scratch every day in our open concept kitchen. With offerings spanning from gelato and entremet-style cakes to flavorful croissants and cookies, our small batch bakery is perfect for anyone grabbing a quick breakfast or for picking up a box to bring home.

In addition to delicious, sweet pastries, we offer savory items at the front counter, including The Cube, our take on a classic breakfast sandwich, served on an iconic cube croissant. Our expansive menu also include Nashville’s Best Sandwich in 2021: The Buttermilk Ranch C’Reuben, featuring house-cured corned beef served on a pretzel croissant baked right here on the Ranch. With an ever-changing menu, new pastries are created weekly, so don’t be a stranger!

Foodology

Our food ethos starts with our ingredients. From the butter we bake with to the coffee we brew, we pay excruciating attention to the details.

One key tenet of The Butter Milk Ranch philosophy is that brunch should be served all day, every day.
