Legends Corner
428 BroadwayThis is the iconic place where Randy Travis worked as a dishwasher, and stars would come sit in with the band after playing the Opry back in "the day". The history here is palpable.
Great classic country music all day & night in the front bar, great food (fried bologna sandwich anyone??), & really cool events in the back room. Check out the website for the band schedule for the front bar, list of events in the back room, or to check out the menu. Nashville-palace.com
Say hi to some of my favorite regular bands/performers: Nathan Belt, John England, Pork McElhinny, Larry Hamilton, Pam Miller... and more...

Looking for a sports bar? This is it, especially is you route for Green Bay. The food is great (hot chicken is good here, too!) It is smoking at night, but the deck out back remains non-smoking and they often have live music in the evenings around the weekends.

This is my favorite place to grab lunch downtown. They are more of a to-go sort of place and only have a couple tables outside, but the food is great, healthy, and reasonably priced. Just a block and a half from the honky tonks. Break away from the burger and fries! Get you some really delicious soup and sandwiches!

This is a great place to go for Hot Chicken. Skip Hattie B's, and go here instead. They do it better, in my opinion. And they have a great selection of beers on tap. Oh, and a fantastic brunch spot!! They just opened a location super close to the house, so check that one out if you want to stay close to "home".

Acme has a diverse scene. With several different floors, they really maximize their appeal to different audiences. On the first floor, they have southern food (meatloaf -Yum!), live bands, and bar. On the second floor they have a swanky bar area with comfy couches and chairs, and it's own menu of items, as well as an excellent sushi bar. If Nat is working, tell him I say hello, though I'm sure that he won't know who I am. Lol. The rooftop has a great view of the river, and they have varying events up there in the evenings. A great spot when the weather is gorgeous!

I've been on this, and it is a lot of fun! It is BYOB, but at least when I went on it, they didn't have a planned bathroom stop. This may have changed as it was a couple of years ago. Go have fun, just check on this detail if you think you will need it before diving into your cooler!! Please note if you choose the pick up in the Opryland area, it is BEHIND the Nashville Palace in the parking lot. Not inside or out front.

Got a group? This is a very popular thing to do downtown. You drink and pedal your way around town. There is, of course, a sober driver, and a host to help with your good time! There are other types of tours as well, but this is probably the most popular. Other alternatives- Sprocket Rocket, there's one with a tractor I don't know the name of, and surely others that also escape me.

This is a great place to go for a walk or run. You can bring your dog. The Greenway runs all over Nashville, and if you were incredibly ambitious, you could walk all the way to Opryland, East Nashville, or even to Downtown. There is a place across the dam great for fishing, and another park as well that is great for just relaxing and watching the ducks and geese.
