Edley's Bar-B-Que - 12 South

Perennial “Best Barbecue” winner in the Nashville Scene readers poll and with a The New York Times shout-out to its credit, Edley’s Bar-B-Que ranks among the city’s best barbecue spots because of its ‘cue as well as its genre-busting bar scene. Open since November 2011 in the original 12 South location and with added outposts in East Nashville (2013), Sylvan Park (June 2016) and Donelson (October 2022) in the Nashville area, Edley’s offers craft cocktails as well as the requisite beers and sweet tea to accompany your smoked meats.

Full bar. Serving lunch and dinner 11 am-9 Sun-Thu, 11am-10 pm Fri-Sat.
