Sweetgreenwill open its first Tennessee location June 30 in Nashville's Gulch neighborhood.

The 2,755-square-foot restaurant is located at 341 11th Ave. S.

Sweetgreen said it will donate a bowl to Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee for every meal purchased at the restaurant on opening day. The nonprofit serves people experiencing food insecurity across the region.

In its first-quarter 2026 earnings report, the Los Angeles-based company said it plans to open approximately 13 restaurants this year, about half of which are expected to feature its Infinite Kitchen technology. Infinite Kitchen is an automated assembly-line system that uses robotics to prepare salads and warm bowls. Sweetgreen did not indicate whether the Nashville restaurant will include the technology.

Sweetgreen operates more than 285 locations nationwide.
