70 years as Nashville's original 'hot chicken shack.' 2013 James Beard Foundation America's Classic. Enough said. [Eater 18 Member]
The heat leaves are roughly on par with Prince's and Hattie B's. Get a medium breast with greens, beans, and/or potato salad. Skip the Mac and Cheese, which lacks some flavor.
Between the Husk in Charleston and the Nashville location that opened three years later, Tennessee takes the edge for pushing the extremes between classical and modern Southern cooking ever further. En savoir plus .
This stalwart takes Nashville's famed hot chicken and does it right. Heat ranges from 'mild' to 'shut the cluck up,' plus a roster of southern sides, beer on tap, and Sunday brunch. [Eater 18 Member]
The dry ribs are swabbed with an acidic, finely tuned baste, and then dusted over a potent spice blend that riles the taste buds into a frenzy yet never detracts from the redolent meat underneath. En savoir plus .
Most impressive beer selection in Nashville. Profile photos from our website were shot here by Kevin Eslinger, director of acclaimed steampunk film "Nickel Children." Ask for Purple Haze.
Great! Full of Third Man merch. Record your own vinyl, sit in the photo booth, listen to the monkey band, play guitar, and press a wax figure in the fun little oddities section. & shows there are rad.
With a solid selection of wursts, a rotating selection of beers on tap, old-school house-made sodas and floats and a great outdoor space, The Pharmacy does it right. [Eater 18 Member]
The menu has Italian-style roots, but using Southern ingredients from local farms. Big on pork, getting whole hogs in and doing the curing themselves. En savoir plus .
Beautiful interior. Great for groups. Bowling inside. Bachi ball & corn hole outside.
If you are there with friends, split the food so you can try more. Homemade aguas frescas each day and coffee with horchata. Limited hours and cash only. En savoir plus .
The live music here was incredible 🎶. Great mule cocktails 🍹 - I recommend the rum mule.
A ton of space and multiple levels means quick service. The rooftop is great but gets packed and has an ultra fratty vibe.
Get a flight of beer. Taste it all. My favorite is the Sweet Potato Porter. The grill cheese sandwich with bacon was damn tasty. Great place to sit and talk with new and old friends.
This softly lit, chandelier-bedecked gem attracts many an in-town celebrity looking to booze it up in a mellow atmosphere. There is an Old Fashioned here made with bacon-infused bourbon. En savoir plus .
One of the most historical country bars in town, and the former hangout of the stars of the Opry, who would slip across the alleyway and into the back door of Tootsie’s after their shows at the Ryman. En savoir plus .
Rooftop Patio is the JAM in the spring/summer/autumn. If you're on Lower Broadway, it's a must-see chill spot
Previously known as the Grand Old Opry House, this auditorium first opened as the Union Gospel Tabernacle in 1892. It was built by Thomas Ryman & renamed in his honor after his death.
This American classic meat and three is the gold standard by which all others are judged. Plus, what's not to like about a restaurant where dessert comes first? [Eater 18 Member]
Happy hour from 5-8 m-f, two for one on whiskey and house made soda. Veggie chips are awesome. Golden arm is daring. Bourbon maraschino drink is amazing.
You're going out on Broadway. You might as well go to the trailer park themed bar and drink some bourbon. You're probably less likely to slip on astroturf when you're dancing anyway.
Young and old flock to Robert’s, a great spot to catch some amazing live country music and do some honkytonk dancing. En savoir plus .
Unique environment! Not a huge beer selection but is a must see place (if you enjoy drinking cheap beer and singing/watching karaoke in a trailer with a man who looks like Santa).
Anything here is good, and all meals come with their amazing biscuits. What makes the biscuits extra amazing however is the preserves. Definitely try the peach.
With 32 seats wrapped around a U-shaped kitchen, diners have the opportunity to interact with the chefs as they are taken on a set, multi-course journey. [Eater 18 Member]
Barista Parlor uses beans from a variety of roasters in a variety of brewing methods. Accompanying the coffees are plenty of eats like housemade biscuits, sandwiches and a bourbon buttermilk waffle. En savoir plus .
This is now the best room in East Nashville to see live music. No bad sight lines, sounds awesome, spacious smoking deck, good beer selection. See a show here.
My favorite small music venue for an intimate experience. I’ve seen bigger names and lesser knowns play, and always feel there is something magical about the place (upstairs is Grimey’s record store). En savoir plus .
My favorite coffee spot on the outskirts of the downtown strip, brewing their own delicious locally-roasted beans (the new coffee soda will knock your socks off). Grab a seat on the cozy front porch. En savoir plus .
Ribs and Q combo, baked beans are on point.(and I'm from Boston). Local drafts are waiting for you. Took home the hushpuppies because I was stuffed and happy.
Open 11am-3am Everyday, Happy Hour M-F 11am-7pm, 2 For 1 Sun & Wed Night, Free Wi-Fi Internet, Full Menu Available 11am-2am En savoir plus .
Beef brisket sandwich might have been the best I've ever tasted. And I spent a lot of time in Kansas City, where BBQ is a kind of religion. Collard greens were spicy, but terrific.
Best hang in Nashville (besides Mercy Lounge, of course). Kitchen open till 2-ish. Lots of vegan & gluten free options + mussels w/ bacon & blue cheese, steak, duck liver & $5 KALIMOTXOs!
Grammy Award-winner Shelby Lynne goes to Rtier's when she is in a down-home mood. She perfers their famous cheeseburger served on French bread. (They also cook a mean fried chicken). En savoir plus .
The Tex Mex brunch from 10-3 Saturday and Sunday is killer! Try the French toast stack or a build your own burrito with a frozen Bellini or Bloody Mary!
Fun to walk through if you have time and want to take a break from Broadway crowds.
Lovely spot, with great reverence for its past. Try the Boots Randolph. Just do it -- it was one of the tastiest cocktails of my trip!
The Taproom is one of my favorite casual spots to meet a friend after work for a drink, or even dine solo at the bar. Stop by for a cold beer, some exceptional food, or a good time with a bit of both. En savoir plus .
Solid taproom in a good location. Definitely feels like an extension of Village Pub. The popcorn has hops sprinkled on it, pretty tasty.
Look for dishes such as garam masala pork belly, Hyderbadi ribeye with curried mac n' cheese & the chef's own take on the South's classic meat & three, which comes with sides such as naan & raita. En savoir plus .
These guys are Antioch's best kept secret! Their spring rolls, Paneng Curry, Tofu Laab, Tofu Pad Ke Mau...are all hits.
