Best Breakfast & Brunch in Nashville

Nashville does breakfast like a religion — biscuits are sacrament, hot chicken at 8 AM is perfectly acceptable, and the line at Pancake Pantry is a rite of passage.

Biscuit Love — The Gulch

The bonuts (biscuit donuts) are the signature, but the East Nasty (a biscuit sandwich with fried chicken, cheddar, and gravy) is the reason people come back. Located in the Gulch neighborhood. Open daily for breakfast and lunch. Expect a 20-45 minute wait on weekends — put your name in and walk around the Gulch.
