The Best Places to Eat in East Nashville

Below is a list of my favorite places to eat in East Nashville.

Joyland

We had to stop here after seeing this on the Nashville episode of Somebody Feed Phil.

The crust burger was my favorite. If you like the crispy edges of a burger, you will probably love this too.

The joystick (chicken on a stick) was also very good! This was my daughter’s favorite.

Mas Tacos

Try to go at on off time to avoid long lines at Mas Tacos.

We tried almost all the tacos and they were all delicious. They also had tamales on the day we went. Yum!

Five Points Pizza

Five Points Pizza dishes out New York style pizza (made to order or by the slice).

To avoid long waits, order online for carry out.

Five Daughters Bakery

Five Daughters Bakery is a staple in Nashville. They are most known for their 100 layer donuts (cronuts).

They have a couple locations. We visited the East Nashville location which I’m guessing is less busy than the original location. Delicious!

Some of the donuts had filling which I think was a bit too much. Next time, I would ask for the ones without filling.

Edley’s BBQ

I was in search of some hot chicken in East Nashville, and Edley’s BBQ looked like one of my best options.

I loved their hot chicken sandwich!

Hearts

This was my favorite breakfast spot in East Nashville. The coffee and food were both amazing.

I loved the muesli bowl with all the fresh berries. My kids enjoyed the apple ricotta pancakes (it’s a big order so they easily shared this).

Frothy Monkey

We had breakfast for lunch at the Frothy Monkey in East Nashville.

I really liked the breakfast bagel sandwich and my oat milk latte hit the spot!
