Nashville, TN Restaurants - Hot Chicken and Pizza!
Nashville, Tennessee Restaurants - Hot Chicken and Pizza
Three places you MUST try on your next trip to Music City!! Party Fowl Hot Chicken, Pepperfire Hot Chicken and The Stillery. Some of the top rated restaurants in the city. Nothing fancy, just good food!
This summer we went up to Nashville a couple of times for sporting events. Nashville is our favorite weekend getaway spot. It isn't a far drive and there are SO many great places to eat! I made sure that we tried some new places on each trip. One place was so good, that I made Chicken Legs go back on our most recent trip. We did order different things so I would have lots to show you.
We are going back next month for a football game. I need some recommendations!!! I am thinking about Puckett's for lunch one day. Any fun dinner places we need to check out?!?! Leave me a comment!
The first new place we tried was Party Fowl Hot Chicken.
We started with the fried cheese grit cakes served with strawberry-jalapeño jam.
We also tried the Chicken Gumbo served with New Orleans Style dirty rice.
Chicken Legs got the Fried Hot Catfish Sandwich with fries.
I got the Chicken B&B Platter.
Boneless chicken breast on Texas Toast with pickles and....
beignets coated with bourbon glaze.

We also got the Banana Pudding - scratch-made banana pudding served in a waffle bowl and topped with sea salt caramel and whipped cream.
O-M-G!
This was really good hot chicken. I definitely recommend checking it out.
This is a sit down restaurant as opposed to ordering at the counter.
The service was good and the food was great!

Printer's Alley is a few blocks from the hustle and bustle of Broadway.
We had drinks at Skulls Rainbow Room. They serve craft cocktails and have a late night burlesque show! I want to go back for the show on our next trip!
We grabbed a basket of fried cheese curds at the British Pub on Printer's Alley (along with a few pints).
Printers Alley is such a fun street downtown!
Printer's Alley is located between Third and Fourth Avenues, running from Union Street to Commerce Street.
We always love a quick trip to The Palm bar for some thick cut bacon!!!
Pepperfire Hot Chicken is in East Nashville.
It is a place your order at the counter and grab a seat place.
There are two long tables and a small row of bar type seating on the wall.
I got the Tender Royale.
Three tenders on top of a fried pepper jack cheese sandwich and two side dishes.
This is the fried grilled pepper jack cheese sandwich.
Gluttony at its finest!

My favorite steakhouse is Morton's. I know its a chain, but they cook the steaks perfectly.
AND I can not get enough of their Twice Baked AuGratin Potatoes.
Look at that cheese!!!!
Behold the famous Hot Chicken Mac and Cheese from The Stillery.
The Stillery is the number one rated place on Yelp. I was super skeptical about coming here because it is on 2nd Avenue downtown. Right in the heart of all the tourists!! How could it possibly be good? Well, The Stillery is well deserving of its #1 rating. It is my new favorite place!!!
The Hot Chicken Mac and Cheese is DELICIOUS!
The Mac and Cheese is the best I've ever eaten. Seriously!!! I still dream about how wonderful it tasted! The hot chicken on top was a bonus!
The Stillery has a super hot brick oven that they cook the pizza in.
This is The Meats pizza.
Pepperoni, prosciutto, soppressata, hot Italian sausage, red sauce, mozz, parm, herbs.
The best part was the coarse salt on the crust.
HEAVEN!
On our second trip to The Stillery, we gave the Pretzel Burger a try.
Pretzel Burger
Two patties, topped with spicy pub cheese, bacon, caramelized onion and served inside a house-made pretzel roll. This was definitely a burger you have to eat with a knife and fork.
We got a side of Mac and Cheese because I LOVE it so much!
We also got a side of their fries.
This time we got the Hot Chicken Pizza.
Hot chicken, white sauce, cheddar, mozz, bacon, ranch crust.
Y'all - there is Ranch seasoning on the crust!!!
This was excellent!!!
I am doing my best to make myself try a new place when we go back next month, but I will probably be back for the Mac and Cheese and pizza. SO GOOD!!!
The have fun cocktails and music at night. I highly recommend giving The Stillery a try!
