ALEX STARTS TODAY

Low pressure, in-and-out vibes in this hyper green space. The seasonal drinks are always it.
Starting at Nashville’s best Toro, head on over to Hip Zipper and work your way down Gallatin until you’ve reached Backslide Vintage, hitting 10+ shops in-between.
This is my all-time favorite food spot in Nashville. With plenty of vegan options, I usually go for the fried chicken, plantains + cabbage.
While the crawl is a monthly occurrence, it’s a worthwhile experience that covers galleries in both Downtown and Wedgewood-Houston. Some of my musts are the Rymer Gallery, the Packing Plant and David Lusk Gallery.
Pizza so good you’ll forget you’re in Madison for a second. Seriously. This is real (vegan) NYC pizza.
A long time Nashville staple, the Belcourt has a solid mix of new and old screenings + great events.

If you’re truly trying to blend in with the locals, PB is a great place to start. Plus they serve our fav High Garden Tea.
One of few indie record stores left in the city, the Groove offers a huge selection of more than just vinyl + incredibly unique (and free) community events.
TGCR is a non-profit that gives materials a new creative purpose. With a pay-what-you-want structure, it makes art accessible.
Part of the Buchanan Arts District in historic North Nashville, Elephant boasts a wide range of shows while maintaining a community focus.
East Side’s best kept secret is out - this anything-but-traditional Korean spot has bulgogi, kimchi + a V/GF item or two.
One of the few chill places to hang late night, you can grab a drink or grab a record… or both.

Offering a diverse menu that vegans and non-vegans will love, Graze is great for breakfast, lunch and/or dinner.
Nashville is lucky to have a biz as special as RadRab, and that’s all we’ve got to say about that. Go. Try. It.
With a menu ranging from chick'n and waffles to a hot chik’n sandwich, Southern V offers Southern staples completely veganized.
Mexico City-style tacos made by Mexico City native Adriana Ortega herself? Yes. Please.
The spot for satisfying comfort classics, Trippy’s is East Nashville’s newest all vegan eatery
