50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Old Hickory

“I've had a good time there the times I've been. They have a great setup, beautiful bar but their girls night out event was a bust and I don't like how they remove the reviews/comments. How are you supposed to give a honest review without it getting deleted...... Not real helpful“

“Ate at the Opry Mills location and it was banging. Girl who made it needs a raise.“

“I've lived a 10 minute walk from this place for years, since back when it was the Pure. Back when the food came from that truck. Everything about this place is awesome. From the new ownership of the business, to the absolutely incredible food. It's unassuming, but if you ever find yourself in or driving through hermitage, this is the best spot in town.“

“Amazing burgers and fries! Quiet little hidden gem with limited seating but great staff and food. Chicken is sliced chicken, not chicken breasts but still great. Salads and bowls are also great. Kids are welcome. Patio seating.

Kid-friendliness: They do have a simple kid menu. Great for lunch or dinner but they do have a bar and trivia. So, probably best before 7pm. Bring my infant and toddler often and see other little kids“

“WOW, This is one of the best kept secrets around. I've been living here for years and didn't know what I was missing. I will be going back regularly now.😃“

“One of my favorite restaurants in Nashville—food and vibes are so good!! Shoutout to Ari for being the best waitress ever!“

“Such a friendly fun space. Helpful menu assistance - owner came out to chat with us! This fresh and unique approach to sandwiches and salads! YUMMO💜 PLEASE CONSIDER COMING TO MARYVILLE!!!“

“This cafe is the best in town. The staff are so friendly and welcoming. Mary and Tasha are so great; they truly make the experience a fabulous one! I will definitely go out of my way to get coffee there again. Don’t waste your time and money with other coffee shops!“

“Really, really good food and beer! Awesome clean spot!!“

“amazing food and staff! The brunch is top tier“

“The food was delicious and the service was great!“

“I was in the Nashville location on 1/28 during my visit to the area. It was packed but everything moved quickly, efficiently and the staff was so very friendly to everyone. That didn’t stop just at the start but all throughout our time there. The lady helping us (her name was Isis, I believe) even followed back up with us on something. Her and the manager went above and beyond to take care of us on something we didn’t even ask them to. Btw, nothing happened, they were just out of something, it came back in and they took care of us. A measure most would not do but she found us and made sure to take care. Now THAT is friendly customer service! The food is so amazing, y’all. This is going to be my new joint for every single visit to Nashville from now on. Hot dayum!!“

“Edley’s did an amazing job catering my daughter’s wedding. The service and the food was fabulous.“

“I don't have enough time in the day to express how great this place is! The food is perfect, environment is a vibe, and service is TOP NOTCH! Every. single. time.

What really makes every visit amazing, is the employees! When you walk in, you're greeted with the best atmosphere. I can go on and on but I'm sure you get the gist by now! 10/10!

TITAN UP! (Go Steelers!)“

“The Authentique is a charming French wine bar nestled in the heart of East Nashville, where the warm hospitality of owners Philippine and Alexandre sets the stage for a delightful dining experience. The cozy atmosphere, combined with top-tier customer service, creates a welcoming environment for guests. The menu features a delightful array of sweet and savory crêpes, prepared with recipes passed down through generations, alongside a delectable steak tartare and carefully curated charcuterie boards. The wine selection is impressive, with the option of fun wine flights to complement the exquisite flavors of the dishes. The restaurant also offers great happy hour deals and nightly specials, with the added bonus of live music on Fridays and Saturdays. The overall experience at The Authentique is a true gem not to be missed. Bon appétit!“

“Such good food at good prices. Staff was amazing, so friendly and quick. If you’re in Nashville looking for a good dinner that won’t make you completely broke, come here!“

“Had the ribs and collards yesterday evening , both were outstanding. Highly enjoyed“

“Great service and a very delicious Lebanese food!!!“

“Food was incredible as well as the cocktails. Hostess was very kind but as soon as our server got to us it was very apparent she did not want to be at work. Felt uninviting during our entire dinner and never once came to check on us after receiving our order. Instead, she stayed on her phone and chatted with other servers. More than likely just a bad apple but hopefully the rest of the servers have a better attitude.“

“Great experience with the friendliest staff in town. The food is outstanding and well worth a visit. A local’s favorite for sure.“

“Absolutely delicious! We couldn’t believe the place wasn’t packed!“

“Love this place, the staff and their coffee! Unfortunately their wait times are often very long and only have one barista working both windows at the Lebanon location. Many times I (and others) have to leave the line as I can't wait 30min plus during my lunch break.“

“incredible place, staff and management“

“A nice place, very quiet, it gave me anti-social vibes because everyone was so quiet. This was actually great which created a calm setting.

Kid-friendliness: Yes, but not exactly tailored to children.

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“We stopped in on a Tuesday afternoon and were thrilled they had 2 for 1 beers! I love the vibe, the scenery, the drafts, and the bartender was very nice & helpful. Also big compliments to whoever takes care of the plants! I've never seen so many live plants thriving like that!“

“If you haven’t had their version of a Crunchwrap you are missing out. And the sandwiches? Fuhgeddaboudit 👌🏻“

“Edley’s did an amazing job catering my daughter’s wedding. The service and the food was fabulous.“

“Good vibes. Amazing staff. And the food… good grief. I haven’t had tapas so good since I was in Spain. Everything was absolutely amazing and the olive oil cake was out of this world.“

“We stopped by Tempo Nashville on Nolensville Pike for breakfast/brunch and left super impressed! The food was absolutely delicious — we tried the bean and cheese quesadillas, the steak and egg tacos, and a few bites of everything because it was that good.

If you’re low-carb or have dietary restrictions, they’re super flexible — you can skip the tortillas and still get a generous, satisfying portion. Love that kind of service!

🌱 One thing that really stood out to me was how eco-friendly the place is. The plates, cutlery, even the vibe — all very sustainable and conscious. Wooden silverware, biodegradable everything. Small touches, big impact. 👏

🍴 Now for the honest part: we do NOT recommend the chips and queso. Definitely skip that one. But everything else? Chef’s kiss.

I brought my two kids — 8 and 13 — and they both enjoyed their meals (and that’s saying something). It’s casual, friendly, and quick, but still feels cool and local. We’re giving the food five stars, but the atmosphere lands at a strong four — cute and clean, but a little basic inside. Still, the staff was kind, and we’ll 100% be back.

Whether you’re hunting for breakfast tacos, brunch near Nolensville Pike, or just want good food with an eco-conscious twist, Tempo is worth the stop. ✅“

“Love this place! The food is great, the owners and employees are helpful and super nice. Plus they carry Wynk THC seltzers on the menu which is icing on the cake for me!“

“I've been from Tacoma to Tokyo and these are some of the best pastries I've ever had in my life. 5 STARS! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Amazing food and service!“

“First: I’m extremely picky about my lattes. I am sensitive to overcooked (burnt taste) beans and undercooked (sour taste) beans. I have gone here repeatedly for iced lattes and they have always provided the perfect texture and balance. They are by far (and I don’t say this lightly) providing the BEST espresso in Nashville. Second: What truly makes this cafe great is that it’s the only cafe in town that makes you feel like you’re wanted. All of these cafes built in the last 20 years are hard, cold and sterile. If you’re younger than 40, you probably don’t even remember that cafes used to be warm, social, inviting and a home for many people. New cafes are so uninviting and I feel it’s done on purpose to get you to leave so more customers come in. But the Daily Grind? It’s homey, has couches, the walls are filled with all sorts of crafty love and plants and there’s a poster on the front that lets you know this is a SAFE space for all. It’s reminiscent of the old days when you had warm social spaces where you could spend hours every day with friends playing games, drawing, talking and no one glued to their phones. I hope this cafe gets to expand and provide even more of this nostalgic homey feel and bring that needed community experience back to Nashville. Third: GREAT food and customer service on top of all of the above“

“During our stay in Nashville we wanted a good place to eat that was not part of Broadway. Our condo was in East Nashville and we thought we would try something local to that area...and boy are we glad we did!!! This is cute little gem and everything was excellent, food, service, parking and hospitality. If I lived in the area it would be place that I would frequent often!!!

Parking: Plenty, we had no problem“

“Great burgers and the mayo with caramelized onions was amazing!! Highly recommend it if you come to Nashville!“

“Read about this restaurant on Eater Nashville, so had high expectations. It mostly lived up to it. The Focaccia crust pizza is fantastic, especially topped with burratta. However, the fennel salad was a little bland and grilled dates ok. The restaurant was cozy and excellent service.“

“Jay and his team are always willing to help with any nutritional / supplement needs. They love their job and the love helping others! I appreciate everything they do for the community and myself. Go check them out!“

“We’re visiting from out of state and we were looking for a place to grab a good coffee and some food and found this place on Google. It did not disappoint. It’s a cute little place and we all LOVED our food. The Bianca sandwich was delicious on the focaccia bread and it was huge! And the coffee was also well made. I also got one of the best vanilla matcha lattes to go. All the staff members were super friendly as well. So bummed this place isn’t close to home!“

“Their GlutenFree Peanut Butter Chocolate Cupcake is to die for!! Their GlutenFree Focaccia bread is delicious!“

“I went today My 17 year old son recommended it for lunch ..Belt burger I've ever eaten !! I had The cousin Eddie!! huge smashburger topped Cheese, BACON FRIED GREEN TOMATOES.Pepper jelly...REDICULOUS !!...💪♥️“

“this place is great. staff is friendly. food and drinks great. it is out of the way but worth it. Great absolutely great.“

“A beautiful cocktail bar with great food too! Service was great!“

“Miller was our waiter. We had not dined there previously. There were four of us. We opted for the “ grub experience”. ( I think is what it was called). Miller chose a family style meal for the four of us to share. It was beyond fantastic. This topped Off a week of some fine dining and it surpassed all. We cannot wait to dine in again. Miller was absolutely outstanding in his skill and service.“

“Outstanding food, prepared perfectly and so super healthy! I’m thankful to have a place like this so close to my office and home!“

“I came here to see Amelia Eisenhauer and Tanir Morrison perform a musicians showcase and hung out for a while because it is a super cool place.

Tons of ciders on tap, some guest beers on tap, a food truck and great cidertenders make this a good hangout.

It's a big, open space with plenty of seating, outside and in with couches and tables.

Here's the Breakdown:

Great ciders, good food and top notch service in a cool space +5 stars.

I will for sure go back“

“After playing soccer at nearby Moss-Wright Park, we wanted to enjoy a family meal of pizza and other goodies. We drove by Jolly Ollie’s before, but it was shut down due to repairs from a tornado. I’m happy to say that it’s now open with great food, friendly service, and lively music upstairs in the bar. Yelp said that Jolly Ollie’s was open until 11pm, but the dining room closes at 10pm. We got there about 9:30pm, but Sydney didn’t turn us away. She was friendly and welcoming, and she was very attentive all night. We ordered an appetizer of fried mozzarella and the Southwest egg rolls. The mozzarella was crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside. The egg rolls were just as delicious. For our main dishes, we ordered a large pepperoni and a large meat lovers (aka Shipwrecked). I eat a TON of pizza, and the pepperoni pizza was one of the best pizzas I’ve ever had. Hands down. The sandwiches, pasta, and other menu items looked good. My son wants to come back for the baked ziti, and my wife wants to try the wings. If you like to play pool, sing karaoke, or want a stiff drink, visit their upstairs bar. Wide open space and well-lit. I hopped upstairs and the people seemed friendly and having a good time. Sydney told us that their outdoor patio has a bar and they have live music on the weekends. Highly recommend checking out Jolly Ollie’s. And when you visit, be sure to request Sydney. She’ll brighten your day with her positive attitude and excellent service.“

“Love this place! The food is so good. I wished I lived closer to visit more often.“

“Super cute atmosphere and yummy food!“

“The food was cooked exactly to the specifications we asked. The portions were outstanding, service was great, prices great, definitely worth a trip if you're in the area. Bonus they offer a Military Discount.“

“Had to write a review, visiting Nashville stopped in for Ice Cream was served by a lovely lady Taylor, very helpful and super friendly. Largest scoop in history, great ice cream. Thanks Taylor, you’re the best.“
