FRIDAY

Grab your morning coffee at Barista Parlour or Red Bicycle (if you’re in Germantown) or Frothy Monkey (if you’re in 12 South – and don’t forget to saunter up the street to Five Daughters Bakery if you’re in the neighborhood to grab a donut, too).

Take a tour of Belle Meade Plantation.

Location: South of Nashville, a 15-20 minute Uber from Broadway

Grab an Uber, and head down to this stunning southern plantation home for a morning tour (led by a guide in period attire!). You might not know it, but Nashville played a large role in this country's horse racing history, and you’ll learn about it here! Gorgeous grounds, interesting content, and an authentic Southern experience. Tours start at $28 and Tastings are $65/person.

Go for a leisurely walk around 12 South, shop local, and grab lunch at Edley’s BBQ.

Location: A neighborhood on the southwestern side of Nashville, a 10 minute Uber from Broadway

A great neighborhood to enjoy a fun, relaxing afternoon of shopping and eating is 12 South. Have your Uber driver drop you off at White’s Mercantile, and work your way up to Jenni’s ice cream! Grab Edley’s BBQ for lunch (by far my FAVORITE barbecue in Nashville!), and shop around at Corner Music, Draper James, Vinnie Louise, Imogene and Willie, Savant, Amelia’s Flower Truck, and White’s Mercantile.

Have dinner at Burger Up on 12 South or spend an evening at Pinewood Social, South of Broadway!

Or even Go Honky Tonking on Broadway!

Location: Broadway. This is the heart of the city.

If you’re going to do the Honky Tonks, start at Tootsie’s and work your way down towards the river! If you need a late-night snack while you’re out, check out Acme Feed & Seed or Mellowmushroom, and listen to some late-night blues in Printer’s Alley at Bourbon Street Blues and Boogie Bar.

Bonus activity: Go to Patterson House – a speakeasy in the West End. It's probably some of the best drinks you’ll have in your life. It is small but well-known among locals. You will have to wait, but it will be worth it. Promise.
