About
The Yellow Table Café and Crêperie was opened in early 2025 by owner Anna Watson Carl. According to the website, the café is the realization of a vision more than twenty years in the making, inspired by the yellow family table of Carl’s childhood and by her experiences living in France, including time in Paris, Aix-en-Provence, and the Burgundy region. The café takes its name and identity from that childhood yellow table, reflecting a focus on warmth, hospitality, and gathering around shared meals.
The café sources its coffee from the Valor roaster and its tea from Rishi and High Garden, indicating an emphasis on specialty beverage suppliers alongside its French-inspired food menu. A cookbook associated with the owner is referenced on the site and is noted as available through Amazon.

Additional Information
The café’s website is organized around several core pages, including About, Menu, Contact, and Private Events. The food program reflects a regional French influence, pairing classic sweet crêpes and savory buckwheat galettes with seasonal salads and soups for a breakfast-and-lunch service window. The owner’s background living in multiple regions of France, combined with the more than two-decade vision behind the café, is presented on the site as central to its identity. The café also encourages community engagement through its mailing list and private event bookings, positioning itself as both a daytime dining spot and a venue for gatherings within the East Nashville neighborhood.
The menu’s pairing of sweet crêpes with savory buckwheat galettes reflects the two traditional pillars of a French crêperie: dessert-style crêpes made from wheat batter and heartier galettes made from buckwheat, the latter typically served as a savory main. Seasonal salads and soups round out the lunch options, while baked goods, specialty coffee, and tea support the breakfast and all-day café experience. The sourcing relationships named on the site, Valor for coffee and Rishi and High Garden for tea, point to an emphasis on specialty suppliers for the beverage program. With a daily 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. service window seven days a week, the café is oriented toward breakfast and lunch rather than evening dining. The combination of a more than twenty-year vision, the owner’s time living across several regions of France, and the family-table concept behind the name are presented on the website as the defining elements of the café’s identity within the East Nashville community.
