A cultural guide to Nashville
The town nicknamed “Music City” has a mighty reputation to uphold—and Nashville certainly hits all the right notes
KEY NEIGHBORHOODS
The Gulch
THE VIBE
Hugging the southwestern corner of Downtown, The Gulch is an old industrial district that’s morphed in recent years into one of Nashville’s most stylish neighborhoods. Old warehouses host exciting restaurants like Adele’s, The 404 Kitchen and Saint Añejo, while their flanks are adorned with an abundance of lively street art (don’t miss the famous angel wings mural for a must-have Instagram shot). All of Nashville’s major attractions are within walking distance of The Gulch, but by staying slightly out of the spotlight you’re upping the relaxation factor—and the possibility of better deals.
Where to stay
Germantown
THE VIBE
Nashville’s oldest suburban neighborhood, Germantown has its own unique personality, radiating period charm from its restored Victorian buildings. Here you’ll find well-heeled wine bars, quirky cafés and chic boutiques tucked away on leafy sidewalks, just north of the State Capitol. Centered around the lively Nashville Farmers’ Market, Germantown is also home to two of the city’s best restaurants: 5th & Taylor, emanating rustic industrial vibes; and Rolf and Daughters, serving its feted “modern peasant” menu. Bed down at the Germantown Inn, a stylish bed and breakfast channeling the neighborhood’s vibe perfectly—and within easy walking distance of all the action.
Where to stay
East Nashville
THE VIBE
Just across the Cumberland River from downtown, East Nashville is the heart of the city’s creative scene, with indie boutiques, record shops, art galleries, and lauded dining spots, such as Lockeland Table for “Southern-accented” American fare or Urban Cowboy for innovative craft cocktails. Much of the action is centered around Five Points intersection.
