Recommendations
Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum
A Nashville staple!
Cheekwood Botanical Gardens & Estate
Beautiful botanical gardens, museum, and art collections!
Grand Ole Opry
Catch a show at The Grand Ole Opry, the home of country music! It's located about 20 minutes outside of downtown, but pair it with a stroll through Opryland to make it even more worth it.
Broadway
Nashville's shining (and craziest) star. Dozens of bars for day drinking or a night out and definitely no shortage of music. Some of our personal favorites: Honky Tonk Central, The Stage, Legend's Corner
Printers Alley
If you are still looking for Nashville bars but want to get away from the bachelorette parties and other madness, head over to Printers Alley! We recommend Bourbon Street Blues and Boogie Bar, Alley Taps, Ms. Kelli's for karaoke, or Fleet Street for an underground British pub.
John Seigenthaler Pedestrian Bridge
Walk across the Pedestrian Bridge for great views of the Nashville skyline!
Listening Room Cafe - Nashville
Catch a Writers Round or a happy hour performance in the cafe.
Santa's Pub
The most magical place on Earth. Where else can you sing karaoke in a double wide trailer decorated like Christmas year round?
Pete's Dueling Piano Bar
Right in Printers Alley! Who doesn't love dueling pianos?
Arrington Vineyards
It's about 45 minutes outside of Nashville, but such a beautiful spot on a nice day.
Goo Goo Chocolate Co
Create your own Goo Goo Cluster!
Puttshack - Nashville
A fun twist on mini-golf. Great for any competitive spirit out there!
Sounds Game
Grab a drink at Von Elrod's then head next door to catch a Sounds game!
PopStroke
A new spin on mini golf!
Frothy Monkey
Stop in for a quick coffee or a bite to eat! There are a few locations around Nashville. Downtown or 12 South will likely be your best bet! This is Zach's favorite coffee in Nashville.
Elegy Coffee Downtown
The Honey Bear Latte is a Nashville fave! This is Christina's favorite coffee shop in Nashville (Frothy Monkey is a close runner up though).
The Butter Milk Ranch
A great spot for breakfast or decadent pastries. Pro tip: join their waitlist online or pop over to Bottle Cap for a drink while you wait. This place gets PACKED.
Love Peace & Pho
A great Vietnamese restaurant! This is where we had our first date and celebrated our engagement 2 years later!
Aba Nashville
Really great Mediterranean food. Aba quickly became one of our faves!
Chauhan Ale and Masala House
A perfect combination of Indian fare with traditional Southern dishes. We recommend the Tandoori Poutine.
Pelato
A favorite for brunch or dinner! Delicious shareable small plates. Order the frozen espresso martini to top it all off.
Daddy’s Dogs (Printers Alley)
Not your average hot dog cart! You'll usually find a pop up location around Broadway, but you can always visit the Daddy's Dogs window in Printers Alley.
proper bagel
It's no East Coast bagel, but it'll do! This is a great spot for a quick bite. Take your bagel and coffee to-go and stroll through Belmont University's campus - it's beautiful! Highly recommend the dill pickle cream cheese (no surprise here).
The Smiling Elephant
Great authentic Thai cuisine! Don't be fooled by the outside, the food and service is well worth it.
Blue Sushi Sake Grill
Located on the 2nd floor of 5th + Broadway. A great place for fun cocktails and food! Our personal faves: the Beef Hot Rock and Cherry Bomb
Von Elrod's Beer Hall & Kitchen
We love this spot when the weather is nice. Great food, great beer!
