HOW HOT DO YOU WANT YOUR CHICKEN?!

Have you even been to Nashville if you haven’t tried Hattie B’s? Okay, they might have a few locations throughout the South, and even in Las Vegas, but Hattie B’s was born in Nashville—and that’s one reason it should be a must-stop-spot on your Music City vacation.

You can get your Nashville hot chicken bone-in or out, as tenders or a sandwich, as a plate of wings or even on fries!

And don’t worry, Hattie B’s offers six, count them six, levels of heat, from Southern (aka no heat for people just wanting to taste that fried chicken) to Shut The Cluck Up!!! (which comes with a burn notice).

You’ll want plenty to wash it down, so expect to drink lots of sweet tea, lemonade, or beer.

And listen, you’ve got to save room for dessert. The local favorite is banana pudding, but they’ve got a seasonal option, root beer and Coke floats, and scoops of ice cream. Any of those will help you cool down your tongue after you’ve tested its limits.

Go ahead and join their rewards program. It promises to help you cut the line and get other perks. Like a free dessert, please and thank you.

You’ve got four Nashville locations to choose from—Midtown, West, Melrose, and Lower Broadway. So you can’t make the excuse that it’s out of the way! Whether you’re just interested in some mild heat or you want your mouth to take on a feat of strength, put Hattie B’s on your must-do list.

Hey, if you’ve already been to this spot, what did you think? Send me your thoughts! I’d love to hear.
