Love that this is in my hood! Such a better option than Panera - especially the salads. While I wish I could indulge in the sandwiches (some of them look SO good, but, alas, no GF breads), I appreciate that the salads are all made with high quality ingredients and some of them are really creative. I had the spinach salad yesterday, and while it doesn't look like much, the dressing is SO good and the ingredients go together so well that it's definitely more than the sum of its parts. Boyfriend had the cranberry chicken salad - he seemed to really enjoy it. Their coffee selection is nice, but as a tea drinker (who prefers unsweetened and uncaffeinated beverages), there wasn't much to choose from. I'll go with water next time. It gets busy at lunch (especially on Sundays, since the other good local option, Cottage Cafe, isn't open) and so service can get slow, but the food is good and they don't hurry you out the door or anything. Huge asset to the neighborhood.

So delicious! A local treasure to the Bellevue area. Large selection of delicious sandwiches- cold or hot, yummy soups (tomato basil is wonderful!!), salads. Have not had the pleasure of having the breakfast yet, but can't wait to try it ASAP! You can't go wrong here! Plus the service is wonderful!

Well let's start with the good. Panera type restaurant with good food and laid back atmosphere. Now with the bad a focus on the staff. Every time I go up there the staff seems to really hate being there or has an attitude you'd prefer not to see when walking in a place. It actually makes me not want to go up there for food anymore. Definetly not world class customer service on any scale and the sad thing is, they barely have to interact with you.

I am so glad this place is just a mile from my house! The food is great and the atmosphere is relaxing!

this is like a mom-n-pop version of a panerra....i stopped in here not knowing what to expect and first off I wasn't greeted or acknowledged by anybody and was not sure where the ordering took place vs. picking up the food...however I finally waited and watched for somebody else to order and got myself hot tea and a orange muffin...it was a nice place to sit and the tea was excellent--it was agood quality brand of english breakfast and the muffin was moist---next time I go i will probably get something little more substantial as it appeared to have some good quality soup and sandwiches.....I would have ordered a bagel sandwich with egg and cheese but for some reason they stop serving egg sandwiches after 11:00 so that was a dislike!!
(3)Melissa L.
Super yummy! I found this place about two weeks before leaving Nashville and I miss it so much! Amazing salads and sandwiches.
(4)Nick N.
Great out of the way place to eat and relax! City Limits has a small variety of soups and sandwiches that are really good...and naturally they have a selection of pastries as well which I love to eat for dessert. Atmosphere is clean and comfortable, you can sit inside or out and it isn't too crowded, even when they are busy as they don't have tables overly cramped together. The food I have tried has been excellent, so far my favorite is the portobello mushroom panni! Delicious!!! All the pastries I have eaten here have been great too and as well they make pretty good lattes. The service has been really friendly and quick and food has been quick, hot, and portions are of good size! If you are in the Bellevue area I highly recommend that you give this little place a go even though it might seem in an out of the way location. Then again, that is part of what makes it so great!

This is my favorite sandwich shop in Nashville. The Grilled Cheese Pannini is to die for! The soups are delicious, and they have some wonderful specialty salads too. This out of the way cafe is a great place for a leisurely meal...there are tables inside and outside, and the seating is spread out...allowing seperate tables to actually have conversations. They also have great desserts and coffee drinks too...stop by and check it out sometime!

I went to City Limits the other night, and I really enjoyed it! In my mind, it is a MUCH better version of Panera - the two have similar options and styles of food, but City Limits definitely has better tasting food, better value, and less pretentiousness. I particularly enjoyed the potato soup and the spring salad. The salad was especially fresh, and I thought that it was prepared perfectly. The sandwiches were adequate and tasty, but nothing too special. I thought that the value was quite good - I spent about $9 and was definitely full at the end of the meal (which is niiiice). For a great meal that's won't hurt your wallet, I definitely recommend City Limits! Oh yeah, and the pastries are awesome! I highly recommend the cinnamon rolls (some of the best in town)...

I was recommended to go here by my gym manager. I was just in search of a good salad. Well, when I came here I found a great Cobb salad (my fave!) and more. They have a bunch of pastries and drinks to choose from. The only negative is that they do not have internet and so you cannot really do any work here than might require having access to it (which is mostly what I need as a blogger, student and professional). It's nice though because when I want to study this place offers a bunch of different space options (larger tables/couches/etc available) and I can usually find my own quite spot. Nice place to spend a quite Sunday morning! I think it's worth it to check it out. :)
(5)Laura W.
This is a great local alternative to the soup and sandwich chains. There are 4 different soups each day and a variety of salads and sandwiches. The bagels are great to grab and go. I really which they would put up a web site or Facebook page with the daily soups to make it more convenient for thier customers.
(4)Janet Y.
This is a great little spot tucked away in Bellevue. Other viewers have mentioned it-- but this is a non-chain version of Panera. The sandwiches are great. The prices are reasonable and the people who work here are really nice! When you go into a deli that gives you a fresh pickle slice, you know it's legit. YUMMO!
(4)Glen B.
Panera WISHES they could be City Limits. Terry has been in business and supported the Bellevue community for at least 16 years, which is how long I've been here. The food here is fresh, flavorful, and always delicious! Out of all the great restaurants now in Nashville, my Mom still always requests City Limits!
(5)Brad H.
It's a nice, local, neighborhood joint. Acts a kind of a neighborhood hub. Good cookies which is key, good sandwich's and I am told the soup is good too although I have never had it. Breakfast or lunch, you're good either way.
(3)Adam S.
Nice little place. Option for getting half sandwich with a side salad or soup. Great deal! I had their chicken salad sandwich. It was very good but not the typical chicken salad since chicken was cut in to cubes and not shredded like most places. Still very good!
(4)Jessica B.
Great place for breakfast, brunch or lunch! Muffins are wonderful and the staff is super sweet and very helpful.
(5)Mistye A.
I know everybody seems to love this place but both times I've gotten attitude on trying to order simple things. i. e. An iced green tea. I basically ended up making it myself. Maybe I'm being a princess, but how difficult is it to make an iced green tea. I really would love to love this place, but no wifi. What?!?!? I'd park myself here regularly to work if they had wifi & yes that means I would be eating & sipping the whole time.
(3)Andy B.
3.5 star review - I went in for breakfast one day and had the huevos rancheros bagel. I was a little bummed they were out of plain bagels, so I got the everything bagel. It was a little too crunchy, but it was still pretty solid. Not wowed by anything here, but wasn't let down either. My date didn't quite care for her bagel, she thought it was too crunchy/overdone as well.
(4)Melissa M.
Great little restaurant close to home. I have had the Greek chicken panini, the Italian combo and a Reese's cookie. All were good but the cookie awesome. :-)
(4)Torrey C.
Panera on steroids is what I like to call this place; except City Limits has better quality ingredients and a more appealing menu. I am a huge fan of the soup and salad combo, I have tried almost all of them my favorite are the cream of asparagus and lobster bisque. My favorite salad the standard Cesar salad (love their dressing for this one). Although all their salads are great and made with fresh products so it isn't like a regaled salad from panera, these ones are much tastier and way more fresh!
(5)Joanne B.
Love the turkey cheddar melt and the turtle brownies are awesome when they have them. My husband is all about the Cobb salad. They have yet to disappoint me.
(5)John F.
Very lucky to live right down the road from our favorite restaurant. Best service and excellent breakfast sandwiches and pasties. Then the lunch/dinner items are always fresh and tasty. Pricing is very fair. We will be back again (most likely today). jf
(5)Holly W.
Absolutely the best grilled cheese around...soups are amazing also!
(4)Eric P.
My family has been eating here since it opened. We particularly like eating lunch here on Sunday. Each item we order is always good and we often try new menu offerings. The tea selections are superb whether you are drinking cold or hot. The bakery area has wonderful variety and so far we have always liked what we purchased. Give this local owned and operated place a try. You won't be disappointed. Don't be shocked when a large, fast moving train comes by during your visit. A major CSX track sits directly behind the building!

City Limits is an awesome little place over in Bellevue. In my opinion, on par or even better than Bread & Company, City Limits is less frou frou and has a generally better selections of soups, sandwiches, and salads. While perhaps comparative in price, you easily get out of here, with a drink, for less than $10, and the city max (pick 2: bowl of soup, half sandwich, half salad) is a great option if you want a light dinner (probably a bowl of soup) and something to take home the next day (probably one of the generously large half-paninis). I feel like City Limits is a warmer and much more low-key atmosphere than Bread&Co, offering a quick bite and a large and satisfying menu. Even so, I would go to Bread & Company for breads and pastries more likely than here. Suggestions: Chicken jack panini, grilled cheese, Greek salad, cream of potato soup
(4)Katie U.
Obviously a great place because it's always packed. Nice cafe atmosphere, and a nice menu with a variety of options. Their soups are really good. The sandwiches I've had have been ok - not amazing but not bad. Prices are reasonable- comparable to Panera What would make it 5 stars for me? Use of local and natural ingredients, and more outlets for those of us with old laptops to plug in!
(4)Jim S.
Decent local place. As others said, like Panera, without all of the franchise feel. Service was good. Order and pick up at the counter. Clean and roomy. Good for groups and with kids. We had the half sandwich and Salad/Soup combo. Good food if your in Bellevue.
(3)Jason B.
This is a place I visit fairly often for weekend lunches, but decided to go for breakfast on a recent Saturday morning. City Limits is essentially like a locally owned Panera. For breakfast, they offer a decent selection of pastries, bagels, and sandwiches. I could tell the Saturday morning breakfast crowd consists mainly of regulars, as I was the only customer they didn't greet by my first name as soon as I walked in the door. Lunch and dinner menus include a nice selection of soup, salads, and cold or hot sandwiches. My favorite soup is the chicken enchilada, and the roast beef panini with horeradish is my favorite sandwich. Good deli.
(4)Shan D.
City Limits reminds of a Panera but with a touch of southern hospitality. I now live in Chicago and am reminded of how great the people are in Nashville. Everyone here is so nice and helpful. You can tell they really put in a lot of time and effort into this place. There's tons of fresh sandwiches, paninis, and salads to choose from at this local spot. My family enjoyed the spicy chicken panini, while I decided to go easy and get the veggie delight sandwich. But save room for the chocolate chunk cookie. It's one of the better ones I've had at that price point ($2.50).
(4)Jenny B.
I've been going to this place for years; good sandwiches, great salads, and love their bagel sandwiches. I've decided, however, due to their consistently unfriendly staff I will find somewhere else to get my deli fix in Bellevue. There's seems to be a high turnover rate because I see new faces a lot. I'm guessing it's not a happy place to work because its sure not a happy place to dine.
(3)Kristina W.
Bellevue is lucky to have this little place. I have been going to City Limits for years, even when they had their other locations. I have never had a bad experience with service or food. It is truly a local place. The employees are always friendly and remember you (and your preferences). It is a place where I feel comfortable going solo, grabbing a chai freeze (try it, truly amazing), and catching up on work. It isn't uncommon to see teens having lunch, moms with toddlers playing games while having a cookie and milk, and some older ladies playing some card game that I don't know what it is. The food is always amazing, fresh, and fast. It is a little pricier than Panera, but it is worth it. The salads, sandwiches, and soups are all good. They do let you sample soups too, which is always good. I haven't ordered soup lately, but if I recall they have at least one vegetarian soup a day. I have ordered yesterday's bagels a few times, just a bag of bagels for a great price. I recently discovered their breakfast and love it, especially the huevo ranchero bagel. On weekend mornings the wait is a little longer, but totally worth the wait. The desserts are always great, just standards you can find anywhere else, but always good. I don't drink coffee, but my friends have said it's great. The chai freeze is a huge selling point for me. It is also in the same center as Pizza Perfect. I enjoy having dinner at City Limits, then heading to Pizza Perfect for a couple of games of air hockey. I think the only downside is there is no wifi, and also when it rains a lot the lot looks flooded.

It took us a couple of years of living in Bellevue before we discovered City Limits (that predated my discovery of Yelp). It's one bookend of a building along the railroad tracks on Old Harding Road (the other bookend is also an excellent restaurant). The checklist of what is good there is pretty long. Service is great. Even on a busy Sunday, they keep people moving at a decent pace. Food is very good. Desserts are awesome. Bagels are great. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. There is really no good reason to not go out out of your way for City Limits; and if you are passing by, or on your way to the Natchez Trace or some other point west of Nashville, this is a great place to stop for breakfast, lunch, snack, dinner, coffee - whatever.

Love this place great atmosphere and good deli and bakery food.

City Limits is a cute little place with some healthy vegetarian options. This place offers sandwiches, salads, and a full espresso bar. However they seem to be trying way too hard to be trendy. But they are definitely better than Bread & Co.
(4)Steve D.
Great bakery/cafe. There is nothing bad here: soup,sandwich, bread, bagels, deserts you name it. If you live in the west of Nashville and have not been here you are missing out. It's so good even Clint Black comes here.
(4)Tart L.
This bakery is truly out of the way, off the beaten track near the Nashville-Davidson County boundry with Williamson County. Many of the items are premium price, but that's okay with the higher income people of the area. The Bread Company bakery restaurant at the fork of highways 70 and 100 is higher quality. Most of the menu items at City Limits have a similar version that is better at their nearby competitor.

I am staying in Nashville - Bellevue Area - for a week. So, I am getting to try all the local places. My first lunch was at City Limits Bakery and Cafe. The food tasted great and service was fast and friendly. There isn't one thing bad to say about the place as far as the food, service and selection. Even the concept is good. There were locals hanging out and chatting over a bottle of beer and every customer seems to be in a great mood. I like the idea that they have special coffee's and drink along with serving beers. And what is better, it doesn't feel like a Bar - because it's a "Cafe"! With all that to the side I must critique their "Small Things". I am a Marketing Strategist and I think there are a few "Small Things" they could do to bring more business. First I would upload the menu somewhere online, from what I can tell they don't have a website or facebook page. In 2013 you are waving at people driving by if you don't have a web presence. Secondly, offer Wifi to your guests. I would have loved to spend 2hrs in here eating and working but there is no internet connect in this Bakery & Cafe. Again, it's 2013 and if you serve coffee you should have Wifi. This morning I wanted to order the food and come back to my room to work. But there is no menu online for me to call in. Sorry City Limits Bakery and Cafe... you only got one meal out of me... but the small things matter!

So glad I finally sought this place out. What a refreshing change of pace in Bellevue. Had a delicious Cobb salad in a cute relaxed setting. The chicken on the salad was nice and fresh tasting. The salad was pretty large for the price. My only complaint was that the roll with my salad was rock hard. Basically inedible. I will definitely be back in to try one of their sandwiches as well as for more of that Cobb salad. The staff was friendly. Perfect atmosphere for reading a book on a day off. Overall I enjoyed my meal and especially the atmosphere.
(3)Jennifer P.
So I came here again this past Saturday and it's still the bomb. I got the half turkey melt and half spinach salad. The spinach salad is SO good. Their warmed honey balsamic vinaigrette is what dreams are made of. I also tried their lemon jazz bar pastry and it was delish. Its like someone took a lemon square and a lemon meringue pie and mixed them together with blueberries. We loved their sourdough bread so much we bought a loaf to take home too. Quickly becoming my favorite place in the Bellevue area.
(5)Stefanie H.
I've been eating at this restaurant since it first opened, and I have yet to get tired of their lobster bisque (Friday is forever known in my mind as "Lobster Bisque Day."). It's kind of like Panera, except it's family-owned. There normally isn't a greeter, but I personally am not put off by that. You simply walk up to the counter and start to order. Their Citi Max (1/2 sandwich with either a soup or a salad) is a good go-to meal, and the food is quite tasty. The atmosphere is charming with good music playing overhead (but never too loudly), and the drinks are free refill. I very highly recommend this restaurant, especially on Fridays. :)
