This museum is one of a kind - filled with incredible art and rotating visual exhibitions. I visited with my sister when the Nick Cave exhibition was there. It was some of the coolest art I’ve ever seen and definitely got the creative juices flowing. Frist is a must see, especially if you enjoy art.

If you are a member, then you can visit Frist anytime for free. Memberships for individuals are $50/year. Youth 18 and younger are always free. If you are a guest, the ticket is $15 per visit.

Grab a drink with a view at this fabulous rooftop bar located in the Gulch. L.A. Jackson is on the 12th floor of the Thompson hotel. They serve some of the best cocktails — I highly recommend giving the Frosé a try. On the weekends, there is usually a wait to get in. You’ll receive a token after waiting in line that will allow you to enter the bar. The earlier you get there, the less likely you’ll have to wait!

Places to Eat

The Pharmacy

I have yet to find a better burger than here at The Pharmacy. This place has incredible food and drinks, with my favorite being the original burger (substitute mustard with garlic aioli) and sweet potato fries. YUM. *You can't make reservations ahead of time, but you can use the No Wait app to help speed up the waiting process. Most of the time, this place is very busy (especially on weekends), but every now and then there isn't a wait. They also have an awesome outdoor seating area and bar. Located in East Nashville.

Prince’s Hot Chicken

hotchicken.jpg

Nashville is known for hot chicken. It is one of the cities staple foods, and there are several famous hot chicken restaurants around town. One of those being Prince's. There are two locations; the one I went to was in North Nashville. We went on a Sunday afternoon and waited in line for probably an hour, and then it was another hour before our food was ready. The restaurant is a hole-in-the-wall, and the seating reminded me of church pews. Unfortunately, my tolerance for spicy food is basically nada. It looked delicious and the fries were good, but I was only able to take a couple bites of the actually chicken before my mouth felt like it was on fire. However, my parents and husband all loved it and said it was incredible. Hot chicken is definitely a must when visiting Nash!
