Favorite casual breakfast spot within walking distance. Excellent bakery and you can get a egg sandwich on a biscuit that’s amazing.

If you’re looking for a full sit down breakfast this is one I’d recommend. Super close and so good. Large portions, southern style. They’ve got lots of menu options, but if you don’t mind sweet for breakfast try a waffle or pancake option.

Plan to stand in line because this is a popular one. You order at the counter and then sit. Order an appetizer of bonuts. Or skip the line and order online for delivery!

If you haven’t tried a cronut before...well...now is the time. There’s a few locations of these and they’re excellent! You can order online for delivery since they aren't within walking distance (yet).

To feel like a local, head up the stairs immediately to the right of the entrance. You’ll find a bar upstairs with all the food/amenities of downstairs but with the added benefit of live music. They don’t take reservations but if you’re a small party you should be ok for getting a seat!

Brand new shopping and food spot. Walkable. Definitely a must-do. Favorite spot is listening to live music at the North Assembly food hall with a view of the Ryman. Tons of great food and drink choices. If you’re looking for hot chicken check out Prince’s upstairs.

Music

For a more low key night where you hear some great acoustic singers, get a ticket to the Listening Room. They have writer's rounds most nights. Food is just ok. But, the music experience is great. You can also go just for drinks and spend $15 minimum per person plus the cost of the ticket.

You’ll need to drive to this one but it’s a favorite for drinks and snacks. There’s actually no sign. You’ll find it behind Barcelona Wine Bar with a yellow triangle around the door. Very cool vibe.
