The 15 Best Brunch Restaurants In Nashville 2024 - Nashville

With all due respect to breakfast, brunch is the most important meal of the day. Just ask your Sunday morning hangover, courtesy of that regrettable fifth bushwacker on Broadway. Whatever you’re craving, Nashville’s on it. Quiet contemplation over a mornay-soaked croque monsieur? Check. A bedazzled drag show with a side of katsu chicken and waffles? Check. A group situation in East Nashville with friends and a few bottles of pet-nat? We can do this all day.

Bolton's Famous Hot Chicken & Fish Review - East Nashville - Nashville

Bolton’s does one of the best hot chickens in the city. But what makes Bolton’s so famous? Part of it is their off-the-scoville-charts heat levels. Maybe it’s also that the hot fish dish somehow manages to run circles around the chicken. For us, it’s because this isn’t tourist hot chicken—it’s just a small shack in East Nashville doing what it does best, with little to no fanfare.

Prince's Hot Chicken Shack South Review - Nolensville Pike - Nashville

All great heroes have an epic origin story. So it only makes sense that Nashville hot chicken has one, too. Prince’s is at the heart of that tale, and the family that created the spicily seasoned bird still runs it today. And for hot chicken enthusiasts, that’s worth the visit alone. The OG spot just off Dickerson Pike did have a certain magic about it, but after it burned down years ago, there hasn’t been a location that’s been able to really recreate that environment. But the Nolensville Pike

Hattie B's Melrose Review - Melrose - Nashville

Does Hattie’s make the best hot chicken in Nashville? No. Is it where the locals go? Again, no. It is probably the most ubiquitous hot chicken spot in Nashville and one that’s become a national behemoth churning out consistent and relatively affordable plates of poultry. But the sides are the move here—things like potato salad, pimento cheese mac and cheese, cole slaw, and banana pudding are not only the perfect foil to the heat but are better than the hot chicken itself.

The Best Bars, Live Music Venues, & Broadway Honky-Tonks In Nashville - Nashville

When most people think of Nashville, they picture Broadway—downtown’s main street where raucous honky-tonks, peddle taverns, and tractor trailers reign supreme. Over 16 million people visit Nashville every year, and a lot of them come for the combo of big-city party energy and small-town Southern charm.

But to reduce Nashville to its “NashVegas” alter ego (and the bachelor/bachelorette party capital of the US) would do the city a grave disservice.

Before ordering a bottle of sake with your next dragon roll, check the label — is it “Proper?” If so, congratulations.

The Path to Pithivier

Chef Colin Shane’s path to the pithivier began with a love of charcuterie.

“When you get into the charcuterie world and start looking into it, [pâtés en croûte] are like the ultimate challenge,” says Shane. I was always chasing that down, and for years I worked in restaurants that didn't really fit with that cuisine.”

But after a conversation with his former co-worker, now Sean Brock’s culinary director, Joshua Lanning, Shane packed his bags and made his way to Nashville, where he became chef

Make-Your-Own Winter Cocktails At Home

Summer lends itself to simpler, uncomplicated sips—light beers, sparkling seltzers, icy glasses of vodka or rum with a splash of juice. It’s just too hot to get exceptionally fussy with what’s inside your glass.

But winter? That’s when cocktails really hit their stride. Maybe it’s because most of us are cooped up inside trying to avoid the cold. But one thing’s certain: the resulting inspiration (boredom?) makes for some pretty creative concoctions behind the bar.

Tomacco is Now Open in Germantown

The humble taco is nationally beloved, running neck-and-neck with that perennial American classic, the burger.

But tacos can claim something the burger has yet to achieve: it’s one of the few dishes honored with a regular guest spot on your weekday calendar (#TacoTuesday, anyone?). In fact, it’s become a cultural touchstone of sorts, with different areas in the U.S. putting their local spin on the Mexican staple, reflecting the tastes, bounty, and people of that particular region.

6 Nashville Gelato Spots to Try Before Saying ‘So Long’ to Summer

With August well underway, it’s time to prep for summer’s unofficial swan song. That means cramming the remainder of the season with all the pool days, lake adventures, and grill-outs the calendar can possibly handle. The perfect accompaniment for those sweltering outdoor days? Gelato — ice cream’s smoother and creamier Italian cousin. Traditionally, gelato is made using more milk and less cream and eggs than its American counterpart, making it silkier and softer than ice cream.
