Lockeland Table

Lockeland Table is like the Mr. Rogers of restaurants—it’s comforting, kind, and legitimately happy to be your East Nashville neighbor. The wood-and-brick dining room and menu are equally homey, and the latter includes platters of smoked bone marrow, crispy pork belly, and wood-fired pies. Instead of your usual Happy Hour, Lockeland hosts a “community hour” Monday through Saturday from 4-6pm with $7 drinks and snacks, with a portion of proceeds going to the PTOs of schools in and around Nashville. Such a neighborly thing to do.
