I was born in Nashville and moved FL when I was 9, but I was lucky to return for an internship last summer and do some exploring! My fave spots were Dicey's Pizza, The Vinyl Tap, Starland Emporium, Grimey's, The Groove, and the Five Points area. Vanderbilt and Belmont campuses are also worth wandering around on because they have some beautiful buildings and cool shops around there. I also linked a guide made by Starland Emporium that saved me so many times when I was looking for something to do after leaving work. Love that city so much!!

gonna try not to repeat anything that lucius rec'd Coffee: Matryoshka: except this one i will repeat because it is that great. i'm a regular here because the folks there are lovely, the vibe is very cozy and fun, and the drinks are AMAZING. like the coffee alone is just solid but they also make the wildest specialty drinks. Retrograde: Shagbark latte>>> Weak Coffee: lil coffee cart hosted in a drum store in east, there's also All or Nothing Bagels in the parking lot which slaps IMO but east coasters may be underwhelmed Restaurants: Tempo: Texas style breakfast/lunch place with great coffee too Bill's Sandwich Palace: their french onion shroom sandwich i would do terrible things for Jerusalem Reebar Restaurant: slept on palestinian food place, great schwarma and best pita & hummus in town Hearts: gotta disagree with lucius here, this place has the best sprouts. Dicey's: fun pizza restaurant with a nice outdoor area Soy Cubano: mojo pork and plantains go crazy, also good coffee! Bars: Dino's: classic spot, good dive bar vibes with solid food as well. perf for after a night out since they're open late Bearded Iris Sylvan Supply: if you're into craft beer, they got nice draft cocktails too Bay 6: tiny lil microbar with excellent cocktails in east but they have good outside space so make sure to go when it's nice out Stores: East Nashville Antiques: antique mall with a great selection of vintage Starland Vintage: they got some wild stuff here Rooted: if you're into sneakers/streetwear Parks: Warner Parks: if you want a place to hike they got miles of trails twisting through here Shelby Bottoms: lovely park along the Cumberland, if you take the trail along the river there's a pedestrian bridge that crosses it Others: Belcourt Theater: for all your indie movie needs Play Dance Club: only place i've found with a decent DJ in town Howdywood/Soft Junk: if you're into punk/noise and there's a show on while you're here you GOTTA experience this place

Go to nostalgia for vintage! Amys place (right next to nostalgia) for the best breakfast ever Federal Hill for: dessert at pastiche, Italian markets, and dancing in the square (I think dancing is weekend nights in the summer) East side pockets on Thayer street- cheap and always great. Walk around Thayer and browns campus afterwards. Prospect park- lovely picnic spot and overlooks the city the atheaneum- the most beautiful library I’ve ever been to. I think it’s $5 to enter now, but worth it! Risd art museum- small but cool Pizza Marvin! The eddy for drinks Aleppo sweets for baklava & cool bookstore next door

memory den, hollywood vintage: warehouse-size thrift stores with incredible vibes. i have to spend at least 90 minutes in here every time. skip house of vintage, popular but insanely expensive and the selection kinda sucks tokyo sando, snappy's: places for incredible sandwiches. just been very into sandwiches lately daily feast: my favorite diner. try the biscuits and gravy. they also serve Spella coffee which is my favorite locally powell's and mother foucault's: polar opposite bookstores, powells is very touristy and a bit expensive but really fun to explore and deserves most of the hype. foucault's is tiny, packed to the rafters and super cute
