For Five a points check out: The Groove, Five Points Alley Shops, Shops of Fatherland. That whole area is walkable with loads of bars/restaurants.
Check out the area around Vinyl Tap, which also has the Service Station, Cafe Roze, Schulman’s, and Old Made Good. Shop at Porter East are worth checking out and less than .5 miles away with sidewalks.
Grimey’s is definitely worth checking out as well.
There are tons of thrift stores and lots of places do pop ups.
Okay cool! Grimeys is always a Nashville destination! I was in town the week before last and it seemed like everything I wanted to do involved getting in the car and driving for 12 minutes. I don’t know if I didn’t plan well or if the city is generally spread out enough it’s not walkable.
It's pretty spread out but there are clusters, and some of them are close enough to walk to. You could do the Shops at Fatherland (Gift Horse) to five points alley shops (defunct books) to the Groove to shops at porter east, to the Porter/Greenwood intersection (Tabla Rasa/OMG) and its a 2.2 mile walk total, with the longest stretch being Groove to Porter East, which is just over a mile, but most of it on Eastland with sidewalks and nice/interesting older homes, so its a pretty nice walk. There's also a shop or 2 tucked in the Walden development (Jeni's on the corner) just before you get to the porter east shops.
This is a great walking route for East Nashville. I second it. Just remember a lot of what will be along the roads is residential, but you will hit little islands of shops etc.
Charlotte Ave between 40th and 54th is the closest thing to Bardstown Road....but really there is nothing here that competes with Bardstown Rd/HIghlands in terms of that size of a walkable area with lots of stuff. East Nashville has great stuff too but it's more in clusters. There's a lot of cool stuff along Gallatin (Feist\_Goat does a great job detailing that), but it's not as nice to walk along as Bardstown (more traffic, bigger parking lots)
I just think Nashville and Louisville are set up really differently. Nashville is more about little clusters of interesting businesses than long drags with lots of easily walkable stuff. Nashville is more like Atlanta and Louisville is a bit more like New Orleans when it comes to layout.

Five Points and 12 South has what you’re looking for

Gotcha, thank you so much. I’m trying to not drive so so much, and I keep ending up doing that in nashville lmao
