Staying in Nashville one night with the family on the way to FL. Hotel is next to Nashville Music City Center. Any eating recs would be appreciated.

I second this place. One of the best meals I’ve ever had

A lot of great options...what are you in the mood for? Something kid friendly?

Arriving in Nashville after 10 hours of driving with a family of five. So more likely I'll need a place that injects shots.

Yeah, a family-friendly place that is original, a place we wouldn't have to travel too far from the hotel.

Breakfast at Pancake Pantry. Lunch or dinner casual at Monells.

I enjoy Merchants. First floor is family friendly; upstairs a little more upscale.

White Duck Taco and Ole Smoky Moonshine has a lot to offer. Great street style tacos and moonshine...plus some good outdoor/tailgate type games for family...couple blocks from back of MCC, across Korean Vets Blvd.

Monells is a great choice...but would be a few minutes drive into Germantown

 

[irishaaron]

The Southern. It should only be a couple blocks away from where you’re staying

 

[Belezabro]

What about Martin’s BBQ?

Yep walk to The Southern, great place and walkable.

What about Martin’s BBQ?

Not a bad chain BBQ option...but not the best BBQ within walking distance. Take the 10 minute/5 block walk from MCC to Peg Leg Porker...you won’t be disappointed.

Buddy had last week off of residency so came down. We did a 3 day bbq tasting blitz of the town. Peg Leg, Jack Cawthorne, Edleys, Honeyfire, Butchertown, Meat Sweats, and Gambling Stick. Hate we went at 2 to Shotgun Willies as they already sold out. Was a fun little way to check some places out. The Martins downtown has some weird hours right now.

Nashville doesn’t get the bbq respect it deserves. Probably because it doesn’t have its own style like a Memphis or St. Louis...but you hit some really good bbq joints in that trip. Shotgun Willies is literally a hole in the wall but has some of the best Texas style bbq I’ve ever had.

I always stay at the Omni and frequent Martins. Solid spot for a quick bite and very cool upstairs.

Have you been since Sean left the creative director role to open up his Appalachian concept restaurant in east Nashville? Been to both the Charleston and Nashville one but haven’t been since he left. Our current favorite “upscale” local place is Henley over on West End. They take their bar scene very seriously do a good southern regional thing. Catbird is still our bucket list when we know a day my wife has open weeks in advance.

Martins is good but the Nolensville location is the best.

Curious what is the name is Charleston? I may go try it
