‘This historic watering hole and prototypical honky-tonk is across the alley from the Ryman’

What's a trip to Nashville without hot chicken. While Prince's hot chicken is considered by locals to be more authentic, Hattie B's is my favorite. Unfortunately you'll need to be prepared to stand in line. If you have a car I recommend trying the Charlotte or Melrose locations as they often have a shorter line than the Midtown (original) location.
