This Old-Fashioned Tennessee Butcher Shop Brings Farm-Fresh Meat Straight To The Town Square

Every steak in this butcher case comes from animals raised on the owner’s own farm, just a short drive away. That means the cattle, pigs, chickens, and lambs never pass through a giant middleman. I love the idea of knowing exactly which pasture my dinner came from. The man...

This Small-Town Tennessee Pie Shop Serves Slices Worth Every Single Mile

A chocolate turtle pie took first place at the Tennessee State Fair four separate times. That same pie is still the best-seller at one small bakery on a historic town square. The menu goes far past that blue-ribbon slice. The shop offers more than 100 kinds of pie, from banana cream to a fruity creation called Tropical Storm. I can’t imagine reading that list without picking three favorites before lunch.

Four Nashville restaurants make OpenTable’s Top 100 in America

Four Nashville restaurants earned spots on OpenTable’s 2026 Top 100 Restaurants in America list, making Nashville the only Tennessee city represented. Bastion, Kase x Noko, Locust and Noko, all locally grown restaurants, place Nashville alongside dining destinations such as San Francisco, Los Angeles and Philadelphia. Two of the four come from Noko Hospitality , which will soon open its third concept, Noko Yaki . OpenTable released the annual list reflecting diner reviews and demand Nov. 4. Restaurants are listed alphabetically, rather than ranked. Alongside this year’s list, the restaurant booking site released a dining trends report suggesting Americans remain willing to spend on restaurant meals, especially when there’s something to celebrate. OpenTable reported an 11% year-over-year increase in seated diners from online reservations on its U.S. platform from January through August 2026. In a separate diner survey, it found 76% of Americans expect to spend the same or more on dining out next year, while nearly seven in 10 expect to visit restaurants just as much, or even more often. Those occasions don’t have to involve birthdays or anniversaries, with more than one-third of Americans expecting to celebrate smaller, everyday wins with restaurant meals more often in 2027, a trend
