Things To Do
Primitive Coffee Company
Emmy works here!
Centennial Park
Close to the venue, this is Nashville's most well-known park. There is a to-scale replica of Athen's Parthenon, a beautiful walking trail, ponds, flower gardens... This is Emmy's favorite place to be, and Emmy and Trey had their first unofficial date here.
Tiger Bar
Where Emmy and Trey had their (official) first date! And now we both have a "lifetime membership"... Creative craft cocktails in a prohibition-era, circus themed bar. It's classy, but there is no dress code. Try to get a reservation if you have a party larger than 2!
Paradeisos Coffee Company
Close to the venue, Emmy's bridesmaid Annie works here!
Nicky's Coal Fired
Trey works here! Pizza, pasta, drinks, tiramisu...
Belcourt Theatre
One of Nashville's oldest movie theatres (celebrating 100 years this year!) and where Emmy and Trey went for their first Valentine's Day date.
DegThai
Extremely tasty curries and huge portions!
Honeytree Meadery
Emmy and Trey's first (official) date ended here and is a weekend favorite! The mead is delicious and it also has a great burger truck parked out front permanently.
Prince's Hot Chicken Shack South
The originators of Nashville Hot Chicken. It's worth the distance, but if you're crunched for time, you can check out their stall downtown at the Assembly Food Hall or visit other great local spots like Bolton's, Pepperfire, or 400 Degrees (just don't go to Hattie B's)
Redheaded Stranger
Tasty breakfast tacos, crunchwraps, and secretly one of the best burgers in the city too
Xiao Bao
Delicious Asian comfort food in a casual diner setting. No reservations needed. Just walk in and enjoy.
All or Nothing Bagels
Wood-fired, sourdough bagels with homemade schmear (try the Calabrian!)
Dino's Bar & Grill
One of Nashville's best dive bars that also has a surprisingly good brunch and patio.
FatBelly Pretzel Bakery & Deli
Some of the tastiest sandwiches in Nashville (Trey's on a first-name basis with the owner because he goes there so often), and they also have amazing baked goods (the chocolate pretzel babka is mind-blowing!)
Grimey's New & Preloved Music
One of Nashville's best and biggest record stores in a former church building.
The Wash
An old car wash refurbished into an outdoor food court for local restaurants. Highlights include Eastside Pho, Soy Cubano, and the incredible Thai fried chicken from SS Gai.
Coral Club
Fun rooftop bar in the heart of East Nashville with a great happy hour!
The Pharmacy Burger Parlor & Beer Garden
A Nashville classic with a great outdoor patio and beer garden!
Schulman's
Kitschy neighborhood bar in East Nashville
Hearts
A lovely, Australian-style cafe with one of our favorite brunch menus (make sure to get there early on the weekends!)
Fait la Force Brewing
Laidback local brewery with a great view of downtown from their patio
Turkey and the Wolf Icehouse
One of Trey's favorite sandwich shops from New Orleans recently opened up a Nashville location and it's amazing.
Smith & Lentz Brewing and Pizza
Great local brewery that also has some of the best pizza in Nashville too!
Little Hats Market
Local Italian market and deli just north of downtown (they have a great eggplant parm)
