Nick and I always research where to eat before we take a trip. Since we were traveling with Liz and Mike, we had to make sure that the restaurants would make everyone happy, as well as making sure there was vegetarian and gluten free options. We loved all of the places we tried, but we narrowed it down to seven places that you have to try if you go to Nashville…
Read MoreWe are going to start with our favorite - Killebrew. They have great drip coffee and cookie butter lattes, and are famous for their hot chocolate. We tried all of it! Killebrew was our first stop when we landed in Nashville, as well as our last stop on our way back to the airport. It is located in the Gulch and is connected to the gorgeous Thompson Nashville hotel. We took advantage of that by…
Read MoreWhen we took our trip out to Nashville, we wanted to make sure that we spent our time wisely. Between a few of the guides we found online, and recommendations from our friends, we had our days packed with some of the best entertainment in Nashville…
Read MoreWe had visited Hillsboro Village a couple different times on the trip, grabbing lunch or exploring after an open mic night. We actually came back here for our last few hours before our flight home. It is such a cool area with so many restaurants, coffee shops, and boutiques! Every time we came, we drove by Belmont University. The buildings there are gorgeous! We randomly discovered…

We decided to get coffee at Red Bicycle Coffee and Crêpes, which is an area of Nashville called Germantown. Most people were eating brunch there (it looked really good!) but we just grabbed coffee and decided to explore the area. All the brick buildings, trees, and quiet streets made…
Read MoreA lot of what we had on our Must Do in Nashville list was located in 12 South, which is a neighborhood surrounding 12th Avenue South. There are a bunch of murals on this street as well as the famous Five Daughters Bakery (they have gluten free and vegan donuts there!). Liz was also excited to go to Draper James, which is Reese Witherspoon’s store. The Draper James building is painted with gorgeous blue and white stripes so many people like to take pictures there. Right across the alley way from Draper James is the I Believe in Nashville mural.
Read MoreWe planned a spontaneous for-no-reason trip to Nashville with Nick’s sister, Liz, and her boyfriend, Mike. None of us had ever been in Nashville before so we researched a lot and made a list of things to do. We took an early flight in and when we landed, we headed straight to the Gulch. It is mostly a shopping district with rooftop bars, cute cafes, and stores. Since this was the first…
