Alan Jackson made the river famous in his upbeat song “Chattahoochee,” and visitors to Cobb County and the river that runs through it realize that the song’s vibe is spot on. The Chattahoochee River is not only the physical line dividing Cobb County and Atlanta proper; it’s also symbolic of the distinctive community that is Cobb. Think of Atlanta, and undoubtedly the Atlanta Braves and Six Flags Over Georgia come to mind. Yet both destinations are actually in Cobb County, 10 miles outside metropolitan Atlanta. Just minutes from the hustle and bustle of Atlanta can feel like a lifetime away, as Cobb County offers something for everyone: from the outdoor adventurer to arts lovers and from history enthusiasts to foodies. “Cobb County definitely has a special vibe,” says Holly Quinlan,…

As the second holiday season of the COVID-era arrives, a little Time, Tequila & Therapy is something we could all stand to receive. Lucky for us, hit-making country band Old Dominion has made that possible, with their fourth album of the same name. Created “pandemic style,” the project found the group retreating to Asheville, North Carolina, reuniting for the first time since the crisis and hoping to restart their creative mojo. Judging by the charming album full of quirks that came from the pandemic—described as a snapshot of the band in a strange time—they’ve done just that. Mixing their signature lyrical mischief with the thoughtful influence of the moment, the set once again pairs their songwriting prowess with honest country-pop musicianship—but it’s also unlike their previous work. For the first…

Nashville has been waiting on pins and needles (get it?) ever since the announcement of Eastside Bowl, a bowling alley/diner/bar/music venue set to open in the old K-Mart space on Gallatin Avenue later this fall. But the wait will be worth it: With 94,00 square feet of space and countless amenities, this Madison entertainment complex is set to become a destination for neighbors and non-eastsiders alike. For the brains behind the bowling alley—Chark Kinsolving, Tommy Pierce, and Jamie Rubin—that gleaming white empty superstore was the perfect space to execute a truly modern vision inspired by the past. “We are heavily steeped in 1973,” says Rubin, who formerly owned the beloved East Nashville restaurant Family Wash. “It’s my partner Chark’s favorite year in music and I’m right there with him, so…

Winter’s knocking on Nashville’s door, and as chilly days begin to dwindle into long frosty nights, it’s easy to dream of a sun-drenched escape to a Grecian isle, where billowy curtains catch the breeze and carafes of local wine make their rounds to convivial diners delighting in grilled meats and fresh, lightly spiced veggies. Short of hopping a transatlantic flight that Mediterranean fantasy might have to stay exactly that—a fantasy. Except at Sadie’s, a new sun-dappled neighborhood bistro in Edgehill, where you can indulge your Mediterranean reverie without ever touching foot in BNA. Chef Margaret LaVetty—formerly of Barcelona Wine Bar—is back in town and helming the kitchen.

We Americans have an abiding love for a thick juicy steak, and we love having it served, perfectly grilled, in a hospitable, if not elegant, restaurant. The first of the American steakhouses, Delmonico’s, opened in Manhattan in 1837, heralding a fine dining tradition. In Nashville, it arrived much later; Jimmy Kelly’s served its first filet in 1934. These days, the home of hot chicken has gotten beefier. Choices for a succulent cut have never been greater, and more steakhouses are on our horizon. Listed alphabetically, here are our top picks. DEACON’S NEW SOUTH Centrally located on the first floor of the historic L&C Tower in the heart of all the downtown action is where you’ll find this Southern-infused steakhouse from the team at A. Marshall Hospitality. Premium meats are dry…
