Here are a few of our favorites in Nashville and Franklin!
Barcelona
1200 Villa Place, Nashville, TN 37212
We went here on our first date. You need the patatas bravas!
Two Ten Jack
1900 Eastland Avenue, Nashville, TN 37206
The best ramen. One of our favorites when you're craving something cozy!
Burger Up
2901 12th Avenue South, Nashville, TN 37204
Burger Up holds a special place in our hearts—especially Kaitlin's. If she could only have one condiment for the rest of her life, it would be their house aioli. It also has a location in Franklin!
Benji's Bagel & Coffee House
6108 Robertson Avenue, Nashville, TN 37209
Kaitlin and Sam's neighborhood bagel shop. Kaitlin's usual is the blueberry bagel with mixed berry cream cheese. Sam's usual is a build-your-own egg sandwich on an everything or rosemary bagel with too many toppings for this word count.
Lockeland Table
1520 Woodland Street, Nashville, TN 37206
We were here when our parents met for the fist time! Lockeland is a beloved East Nashville spot with a great Community Hour.
iggy’s
609 Merritt Avenue, Nashville, TN 37203
If you're looking for Italian in Nashville, look no further. Iggy's is—by far—our favorite.
Dicey's
425 Chestnut Street, Nashville, TN 37203
Known for its party-style pizza, Dicey's is an easygoing environment with a great patio.
Attaboy
8 Mcferrin Avenue, Nashville, TN 37206
We love Attaboy. It's a cocktail bar that doesn't have a menu. Simply describe the spirit and flavor profile you're looking for, and voila, they'll craft something just for you. No reservations—and you shouldn't have any about going here either.
GRAY'S on Main
332 Main Street, Franklin, TN 37064
The perfect spot for dinner in downtown Franklin. Great cocktails, even better bacon-wrapped figs.
Merridee's Breadbasket
110 4th Avenue South, Franklin, TN 37064
A great spot for lunch or brunch in downtown Franklin. Kaitlin's mom requests to come here every time she visits. The key lime pie is a must.
Culaccino Italian Restaurant + Bar
104 East Main Street, Franklin, TN 37064
We do not joke around when it comes to Italian food, and Culaccino's and their sister restaurant, Culamar, are the best options in Franklin.
Frothy Monkey
125 5th Avenue South, Franklin, TN 37064
A Nashville classic coffee shop and cafe with locations in Franklin and Nashville.
Arrington Vineyards
6211 Patton Road, Arrington, TN 37014
The perfect place to spend a nice day and sip a glass (or two) of wine.
Franklin Farmers Market
230 Franklin Road, Franklin, TN 37064
A lovely way to spend Saturday morning! 9 am-noon.
