In the mood for juice? Walk to the end of the block. Best juice drinks ever! My favorite is the Pineapple Rain. Their vegetarian or vegan desserts are amazing, and they have great salad sandwiches and wraps for lunch. The black bean hummus wrap is my favorite.

Satisfy your chocolate craving with a visit to a Southern artisan chocolate factory, hidden in the Lockeland Springs neighborhood in East Nashville.
