An East Nashville, 5-points staple. A great new patio in the heart of East. Parking can be tight at times, but a pro tip: park at the East Nashville library next to Red Door bar or the USPS Location nearby for free parking.

You'll hear a lot about Hattie Bs, but this is our favorite consumable hot chicken in Nashville. (We say consumable, because Boltin's is too hot for normal people.) We're discounting the fact that there is now one of these in the airport.
If you're looking for the best commercial experience, or the Instagram photo, check out Hattie Bs. But if you want the best hot chicken, check out 400 Degrees.

What we I told you the best burger in Nashville was at a Detroit style pizza place? It is. It's called Le Big Matt and its the best big burger in town. Visit the tiny Gulch location for some great pizza, sandwiches, and a big burger.
