    Brentwood.  Little further out but checks all the boxes.

    Bellevue isn’t too far in west nashville. Family oriented suburb for the most part. Honey fire bbq is a hidden gem out there too.

    Just snagged a single lower so looks like I’ll be doing the Nashville/ St. Louis double. :)

    Really looking forward to scoring a Nashville shirt. You think they’ll have enough city specific shirts like they have been making for this tour. Looks like each tour date they’ve had more than enough shirts. Not posters

    If coming from the south, I’d stick to Green Hills, Franklin, Cool Springs, or Brentwood areas.

     East of town you could do the airport area and wouldn’t be too bad. Mt Juliet if you want a little further out.

    North of town I’d only do the Hendersonville area

    West of town Bellevue if you want to be a little further out (cheaper). Vandy area if you want to spend just a bit more but be within a couple of miles of the arena.

    Generally, west and south of Nashville are the safer areas within a 15 miles of downtown. Just stay west of I-65. North & East you’d want to be further out 20 miles or so.

    What he said. There's one in the Assembly food hall across the street from the arena. Unless you can't stand chicken on a bone, real hot chicken is a quarter or half fried chicken (breast and wing attached, or breast, leg, and wing attached). Most places nowadays serve tenders instead and those are great, just tastes better and juicier when it's a breast or wing or leg lol

    I've eaten raw ghost peppers before and had the hottest from all the local places and Prince's XXXhot is the hottest thing I've ever eaten in my life. And you could still taste the chicken and other spices in there. Some of the other places just make it hot to be hot. There's a Hattie B's in the food hall too, so if you're up to the task, compare them lol

    That Prince's get horrible reviews....it's rated 2.9 vs 4.6 for Hattie's. Are we sure that's the place? I can't believe all of the times I've been to Nashville that I hadn't hit up either one of those places.

    Even Prince's "hot" is really freaking hot.  And I seek out and enjoy spicy foods regularly.  The "x hot" is borderline too hot.  They even questioned me when I ordered it and there are two heat levels higher.  Agree that Prince's is better than Hattie B's or Big Shake's or any of the others I've had there.  I've only eaten at the original spot.  Never the downtown location.

    Assembly Food Hall is like a giant food court downtown. 20 or so mainly local spots that all have a stand inside with a couple of bars.
    Prince's is also the original Nashville Hot Chicken joint. Hattie B's gets all of the love but it's the commercialized "New Nashville" version of hot chicken. It's fine, don't get me wrong, but if you want the real deal get Prince's.

    I'm still amazed there's no Gus's in Nashville. We go there when we're in Memphis; it's amazing.
