The Clarksville Brunch Guide

Updated: April 26, 2024

Brunch (noun): a crossover between breakfast and lunch; may be enjoyed as a celebration or simply because you didn’t make it out in time for chick-n-minis at Chick-Fil-A; best served with a mimosa, smoothie, or fresh cold-pressed juice

Whether you want to fuel up for a long day of adventures, celebrate a special occasion, or just need something greasy and loaded with carbs, we’ve got you covered with this brunch guide full of Instagram-worthy local places.

Old Glory Restaurant & Silo Park

Dine al fresco at Clarksville's newest restaurant and hangout spot. Known for its award-winning creations, Old Glory Distilling Co. recently expanded its guest experience by adding a made-from-scratch restaurant serving up spirit-inspired American cuisine. Its menu includes pancakes, skillets, salads, sandwiches, tacos, and of course brunch cocktails.

The Mailroom

Housed in a former United States Postal Office and Federal Building, this modern dining locale offers a unique twist on classic dishes and an outdoor patio with great downtown views. Choose from funnel cakes, omelets, burgers, burritos, and more when you dine in this downtown gem.

Strawberry Alley Ale Works

Find something for everyone at this downtown spot with a menu boasting classics such as breakfast tacos, shrimp & grits, and chicken & waffles. The mimosa mason jars are perfect for sharing, and they serve a mean Bloody Mary for anyone needing a little pick‑me‑up. Their brunch bar has some of the best brownies we’ve ever tasted, and the patio views of the river are superior.

Be sure to check out Upstairs at Strawberry Alley, too!

The Mad Herbalist

Nestled in the woods right off Madison Street, this charming little spot serves up unique brunch items like bourbon banana french toast, crab frittata, and an egg drop sandwich. Build your own tier with the three menu items that pique your interest the most that day and be sure to try a flight of their signature ‘teamosas’ to get your morning started.

Dock 17

Three words: pallet of biscuits. This really is a filling station with menu items like Brisket Sliders, the Southern Fried Chicken and Belgian Waffle, the Boot Scootin’ Burger, and the Cheesy Pig Omelet. Located behind Miss Lucille’s Marketplace, Dock 17 truly is one of our favorite hidden gems.

The Sol Press Co.

Calling all health fanatics! This Clarksville hotspot is a go-to for all your smoothie bowl and overnight oats needs. Stay awhile and recharge in this fun spot before grabbing a fresh cold-pressed juice and a vegan chocolate chip protein cookie to go. Avocado toast with microgreens, anyone?

Yada on Franklin

Locals know Yada for its cichetti-style dining. This Italian style of dining is much different than what you will find at most American restaurants. Rather than everyone at the table getting their own large portion of whatever they choose, cichetti-style dining promotes sharing small plates with the table and ordering throughout the meal until everyone is full. Their "brunchetti" menu boasts unique dishes such as burrata & strawberry toast, blue polenta and shrimp, and challah french toast bites. Don't worry, they also have classics like eggs benedict and biscuits & gravy. Be sure to try an order of the Yada donuts!

Blackhorse Pub & Brewery

Be sure to try out the brunch menu at this Clarksville classic. They serve up all the favorites including Eggs Benedict, omelets, and classic pancakes. If you can’t decide, try the Brewmaster’s Breakfast to get a bit of everything.

Silke’s Old World Breads

Feeling up for a quick trip to Europe? Check out Silke’s for authentic German baked goods and brunch options like the Leberkase with Egg Plate or Bratwurst Brotchen. Don’t worry if that’s not your vibe for the day. Silke’s also serves up yummy sandwiches like Melted Brie and Apple and offers a large selection of specialty coffees.

Wild Flour Bake Shop

If you love bread as much as we do, this is the place for you! Wild Flour turns their made-from-scratch biscuits and bread into delicious brunch options such as Cinnamon Roll French Toast, the Ridicu-Biscuit, and classic avocado toast with a twist. They even have a Create Your Own biscuit option with additions like honey butter, bacon, pimento cheese and the jam of the day.

Café 931

This Sango spot is sure to satisfy all your açaí bowl cravings. If you need something a bit heartier, try one of their gourmet breakfast burritos and freshly made juices.

Clyde's of Clarksville

Enjoy brunch with a view and a cocktail at Clyde's. Located on the River Club Golf Course, this newly rebranded restaurant serves up classic brunch dishes and lots of Southern hospitality.

Miss Lucille’s Café

While the menu is more on the lunch side of brunch, this Clarksville staple is a great place to start your day. The coffee shop right outside serves up yummy artisan coffees and smoothies, and for those who aren’t feeling a full-on lunch moment, take a look at the pastry display. Grab the one (or four!) that looks the best and enjoy brunch with the gals before perusing the aisles of Miss Lucille’s Marketplace.
