ARTICLENashville Nightlife They don’t call the Tennessee capital NashVegas for nothin’. Serving as kitschy homing beacons for party-going natives, neon signs illuminate Broadway, otherwise known as the “Honky Tonk Highway.” Though smaller and more countrified than Nevada’s famous strip, Music City’s main drag offers everything from country to rockabilly to bluegrass at down-home bars such as The Stage on Broadway (412 Broadway), Layla’s (418 Broadway) and Legends Corner (428 Broadway); as street performers continue the harmonies outside. Phone (615) 726-0504 for The Stage, (615) 726-2799 for Layla’s or (615) 248-6334 for Legends Corner.
ARTICLEShopping In Nashville Before you start collecting mementos from your trip to Music City, kick things off with some fancy footwear. Several boot dealers operate in downtown Nashville. Stock up on cowboy boots at Boot Barn (318 Broadway) or Boot Country (304 Broadway), where there's always a buy-one-get-two-free deal going on. Ladies will love the fashionable boot selection at Betty Boots (321 Broadway). Once you’re outfitted for your travel, break in your new gear rambling past honky-tonks and crooning street musicians in the Lower Broadway district between 2nd Avenue and the Bridgestone Arena.

Restaurants

RESTAURANTLoveless CafeFor more than 50 years, guests have flocked to this restaurant for the flaky, fresh-baked biscuits with homemade peach, blackberry and strawberry preserves. Other folks will rave about the pan-fried chicken that has been a staple here for years, as well as the country ham and red-eye gravy. The few available tables make for long waits that are less painful when the weather is nice and when you visit the different shops located on property.diamond-approved

RESTAURANTHattie B's Hot Chicken"Hot chicken" seems to be everywhere in the South. One of Midtown's most popular eateries is close to Broadway, West End and Vanderbilt University. The convenient location makes it a favorite lunch spot. If the waiting makes your mouth water and your forehead sweat, the reward is found in the tasty seasoning of as-hot-as-you-like-it chicken, from "No Heat" to "Fire Starter" to "Shut The Cluck Up!" Try the latter only if you dare.diamond-approved
$$
RESTAURANTBiscuit LoveThis local favorite is the perfect place to get Southern breakfast staples. This popular restaurant usually draws a line, but it is worth the wait just to order "Bonuts" for the table. Other delicious choices include the "Southern Benny," which is made from scratch biscuits and gravy, the "Princess," which has hot chicken, and the "Blacklock Hash."diamond-approved
