Cafe 393 on Main

Cafe 393 is absolutely phenomenal!!!!! I've been coming here for years, food is always spot on, service is always amazing! Definitely the best biscuits and gravy in the area. They open a new location in Gallatin, however, I prefer the original location, and to me is worth the drive!! 💯 🍳🥞

First time visiting Café 393 as a Hendersonville local and it was honestly the worst dining experience I have had here. Our server with pink hair took about 20 minutes just to greet us. She was not running food or juggling tables. She was standing around talking to coworkers. We made eye contact several times before she finally came over. That is not being overwhelmed. That is ignoring your table. We ordered regular drinks, including the $8 mimosa listed on the menu. After she dropped them off, we had to ask three separate times for straws. It took another 10 to 15 minutes just to get them. The food took about an hour, which I understand. They were busy and kitchens get backed up. That is not the issue. The issue is that during that entire hour, she never checked on us once. No refills.

I was really impressed with my meal. I ordered eggs benedict over crab cakes. The hollandaise sauce was delicious. Although I’ve had better crab cakes, I wasn’t expecting real crab meat considering we’re in Tennessee. I didn’t care for the grits at all. They were extremely watery and bland. They definitely weren’t stone ground. I ended up wasting them. Despite that, I enjoyed my meal and the customer service was excellent. I will definitely return.

Great breakfast! I had French toast and deep fried bacon. The bacon was nice and crispy just like I ordered. The French toast was good. It was served with warm apples that we used as jam on my wife’s toast. She had scrambled eggs, rye toast, sausage and grits; all very good. Good coffee too!

Alicia was my server and she was super nice. Her recommendation of the Classic Eggs Benedict was on point. They are a very family friendly place. The portions were large and tasted so good. I highly recommend this breakfast place for Hendersonville. I will be back
