Weekend in
Day One · June 12
Fly from Toronto Pearson (YYZ) to Nashville International (BNA) — approximately 3.5 hours direct. Rent a car via Turo at the airport (essential for Saturday's day trip). Drive 20 minutes to your Airbnb in the Wedgewood-Houston neighbourhood (East Nashville), checking in by 6:30 PM. Dinner: Head to The Pharmacy Burger Parlor (a casual, vintage-themed burger joint in Five Points) — 10-minute drive from your accommodation. Order their signature smash burger and local craft beer. The retro diner vibe and kid-friendly counter seating make this a perfect low-key arrival meal. After dinner, stroll The Gulch's pedestrian-friendly blocks (5-minute drive) to absorb the live music spilling from honky-tonks like The Honky Tonk Central — no cover charge to walk the ground floor and catch free performances. Return to your Airbnb by 10 PM.
Day Two · June 13
Start with Biscuit Love Bakery (Wedgewood-Houston location, 8-minute walk from your Airbnb) — arrive by 8 AM to beat the line. Order their signature fried chicken biscuit and local coffee. The casual counter service and open kitchen create authentic Nashville energy without overwhelming a solo traveler. Mid-Morning: Drive 45 minutes south to Henry Horton State Park (near Chapel Hill) — a kid-friendly gem with minimal crowds on Saturday mornings. Hike the easy 2-mile Waterfall Trail (mostly flat, parking 100 feet from trailhead) to see a 50-foot cascade. Pack sunscreen; at 26°C/79°F with partly cloudy skies, you'll stay comfortable in lightweight layers (t-shirt, light hoodie for morning). Lunch: Return to Nashville (45-minute drive). Stop at Mas Tacos Por Favor (a colorful casual taqueria in The Gulch) — order three different taco varieties and agua fresca. The bright patio welcomes solo diners and families alike.
Visit Nashville Zoo at Grassmere (15-minute drive from lunch) — a sprawling, well-shaded facility perfect for low-pressure wandering. Highlights: giraffe feeding, red panda habitat, and a splash pad for cooling off. Budget 2.5 hours; parking is steps from entrance. Entry: ~$22.
Return downtown. Grab dinner at Husk (a rustic-chic Southern casual spot in SoHo) — order fried chicken, collard greens, and cornbread. Reservations recommended; request a seat by the window overlooking the street. Post-dinner, catch live music at The 5 Spot (a dive bar with zero pretense, 5-minute drive from Husk) — cover charge ~$5–10. The eclectic crowd and unplugged energy are quintessentially Nashville.
Day Three · June 14
Brunch at Josephine (a cozy, plant-forward casual spot in Germantown) — order the loaded toast and fresh juice. Arrive by 9:30 AM to avoid crowds. The neighbourhood's tree-lined streets are perfect for a 10-minute post-brunch stroll to Fannie Mae Dees Park, a whimsical, low-walking-distance park with a dragon sculpture kids adore.
Drive 20 minutes to Two Rivers Park — a sprawling, shaded greenspace with easy walking trails, a playground, and kayak rentals (book in advance if interested). Perfect for a relaxed final 90 minutes before departure.
Leave Nashville by 1 PM to catch a 5 PM flight from BNA. Scenic return route: take I-24 north toward Knoxville for 30 minutes to catch views of the Tennessee River gorge, then rejoin I-75 north for straightforward driving back to the airport. You'll arrive with 90 minutes to spare.
