The Pancake Pantry

The Pancake Pantry offers a fun breakfast for the whole family. Show up early; the lines are often long for Nashville's favorite flapjacks. The bright color scheme and the staff are always warm and inviting. For starters, order the candied bacon—five strips of thick-cut bacon in brown sugar. For pancakes, it can be difficult to pick one of over a dozen flavors. However, the apricot-lemon rolled cakes are sweet and refreshing. For those in a more savory mindset, the grill cook's medley will keep anyone satiated. Hash browns with ham, onions, green peppers, and tomatoes, grilled to a crisp, served with melted American and Swiss cheese with eggs on top with wheat toast.

Lockeland Table

Serving children and adults alike since 2012. The Lockeland Table will sit the whole family with an inviting interior and patio seating. Executive chef Hal cooked with his mother before attending culinary school. Because of his lifetime of experience, Hal has crafted a menu full of delicious options. For the family, order the empanadas of the night. Crispy, piping hot, and full of whatever savory concoction Hal cooked. For adults, the day's fish makes for a delightful seafood treat. They select the fish from the market each morning, grill it, and serve it over smokey Gouda grits, tomatoes, zucchini, and squash, then top it off with charred capers and onion butter. The pizzas on the "youngins" menu will keep any kid happy — cheese or pepperoni pizza with a crispy crust and tangy tomato sauce.

Fenwick's 300

This contemporary eatery offers delicious fare. The idea behind this modern spin on a classic diner was simple; create a unique space for a fantastic neighborhood. The owners love Kevin Bacon, so they named the place after his character from the 1982 classic, Diner. The 300 is a reference to a perfect bowling game because the establishment used to be a bowling alley. Order the biscuits and jam—warm, fluffy buttermilk biscuits with an assortment of housemade jams. Kiddos will enjoy the giant pancake, topped with warm maple syrup. Adults might like the corn beef hash, corned beef brisket, crispy sauerkraut potatoes, grilled onions, a poached egg, and topped off with creamy Hollandaise sauce.
