Things To Do
Broadway
Touristy but fun! Live music everywhere you go & plenty of rooftop bars with a view. * 5th and Broad: shopping & food before walking down Broadway. Assembly Food Hall on the 2nd floor and has a ton of great food options (Hattie B's for Nashville Hot Chicken) * Kid Rock's Honky Tonk: loud, but Anthony's favorite at night * Tootsies Orchid Lounge: historic honky tonk that's fun
Germantown
Neighborhood with our favorite food! Anthony lived here when he moved to Nashville. * Rolf and Daughters: our favorite Nashville restaurant hands down. * The Optimist: great seafood, especially oysters! (yes even in a landlocked state) We went here the night we got engaged. * Jack Browns: our local watering hole! Nothing fancy, just burgers and beers and good times! We took engagement photos here and go at least twice a month. * Cupcake Collective: delicious cupcakes! Try the sweet potato cupcakes - trust us.
12 South
Perfect area for taking pictures and shopping - Sezane, Vuori, Madewell, Molly Green, and many other overpriced boutiques. The iconic I Believe in Nashville mural is here. * bartaco: even though it's a chain, they have the best spicy margs * Hearts: great for brunch. The corn and zucchini fritters are Macie's favorite * Jeni's Ice Cream: there are locations all around Nashville. Our top flavor is the gooey butter cake
East Nashville
Neighborhood with lots to do! * Top Golf * Joyland: Great smash burgers and chicken biscuits! * Shelby Bottom Park: walk along the river * Up Down: barcade with good pizza * Egg Drip: street truck with Korean inspired egg sandwiches

More restaurants and things to do! Iconic wings mural is in this area. * LA Jackson: great rooftop bar * Biscuit Love: very touristy but cute breakfast place * Milk and Honey: another touristy yet cute breakfast spot * Pins Mechanical: bowling, arcade games and bar * Virago: cool vibes and great sushi
Honorable Mentions
A few other of our favorite places in Nashville! * Tailgate Brewery: multiple locations including the airport, but Headquarters has the best outdoor seating. Our favorite beer and fun specialty pizzas * Midnight Oil: one of the best pizza spots. In the Nations neighborhood - we recommend the hot honey pizza! * Belle Meade Winery: beautiful property.
