Some would argue that Bolton’s Hot Chicken is superior.. regardless of where you get it, Nashville is very proud of their Hot Chicken. I recommend the Pimento Mac n' Cheese as one of your sides!!

Rudy’s Jazz Room is very tasteful and has themed nights: Jazz, Salsa.. You’re going to see the city’s best musicians in this small club. You can’t beat the ambiance nor the cajun toasted cheese sandwich.

Always has a warm and welcoming atmosphere. They are as close as you’re going to get to Dublin here in Tennessee and always have live music. This is all ages.
