HIGHLY recommend this food tour. This was such a fun experience to do with my sister whom I was visiting from Maryland. The food was incredible and we loved our tour guide. I will definitely book again with my husband next time!

My sister was visiting from out of town and I thought this would be a fun way to show her the incredible food scene in Nashville/Franklin—the tour did not disappoint! We had the best time tasting really good portions of incredible, hot food, learning so much about the Factory that I would have never learned about otherwise, and even meeting other locals and tourists added to the fun. My only regret is that I ate breakfast that morning—DONT DO THAT. Come very hungry! I highly recommend this tour whether you’re a local and want to learn about the history of the factory or a tourist from out of town.
