Nashville Shopping, Eats + Murals on 12th Ave

Nashville shopping + eats . . . 

I love a good neighborhood stomp, especially when I’m visiting a new-to-me city. And it shouldn’t come as a surprise when I say 12th Avenue South hits all the right notes. I’m talking great Nashville shopping, delicious eats and a ton of ‘grammable photo-ops. (You can  click here to save this post for later.) We spent an entire afternoon exploring–be sure to block out at least a couple hours. Depending on the time of day, I bet you’ll even want to grab a bite to eat. Here are a few local favorites, places to shop or grab dessert and a few joints that have really good weekend brunch.
