    It's been almost a decade since I've last had Hattie B's, but while connecting through the Nashville airport I couldn't resist. My fiance and I are huge Nashville Hot Chicken fans, so I was excited for him to try Hattie B's for the first time. He ordered the 3 tenders (hot) and fries. We were surprised at how cheap it was, just $15 which is comparable with non-airport prices. Within 5 minutes our order was up and we dug in. They offer bar seating and a few tables. It was busy, so we just took a seat at the bar. The chicken tenders were everything you want- juicy, crispy, flavorful and the right amount of heat. We agreed that we probably could have tried the next heat level up, but you never know how quickly they jump from "nice spice" to "blow your palate out". This spot is definitely a perk to flying through Nashville and will be my go-to for future connections through this airport going forward. Thankfully we have a Hattie B's in Vegas, so I won't have to wait!

    Whether you're coming or going, if you travel through C Gates, you walk by and are tempted by the tenders of Hattie B's! Situated directly across from C1, this location is fairly spacious with several tables, high tops and even counter/bar seating. No servers, order at the counter on one end and listen for your name at the other. I popped by on the way out recently, mainly due to the fact that they have grilled tenders! I got three grilled tenders, slaw and a pack of their chicken skins for a little less than $20. At my initial pickup, they had fried tenders and once I let them know it was grilled, they apologized and within a few minutes, I had my correct order. Given the type of service I got at ordering, I wasn't surprised the wrong variety of tender was put in. As with most spots, this location gets busy fast, so if you see a break in the line and a few empty seats...do it! Overall solid spot for a hearty meal when at BNA.

    Hattie B's is at the Nasvhile airport! It's kind of a mess though as the line is always pretty long and then you have to wait for your food. It can be super hard to find a seat to sit at. There is a bar area here too. I got 2 sandwiches for $14.30 each so $28.60 total. I got one Hot and one Damn Hot. The hot one is fine and I think just about anyone can eat. The Damn Hot is actually damn hot. I decided to not eat all of it as it does make your mouth burn. Plus, I didn't have time to order a bunch of waters before my flight. This was my first time trying their mac n cheese and I liked it a lot. The $8.25 Bearded Iris Beer was really good too. I was craving Nashville Hot Chicken and this is the go to spot for it in Nashville.

    So I NEVER and I mean NEVER have a layover in Nashville and of course we had to take advantage of being able to indulge in Nashvilles famous Hattie's B hot chicken and yet again, it did NOT disappoint. Literally took 10 min or less to get our food and we housed it!! I got medium flavor too and my nose was running all the way to concourse D. Haha.

    As I've stated in a separate Hattie B's review - there's a reason both tourists (like me) and locals alike flock to eat the delicious and spicy hot chicken specialties being served up at Hattie B's. Through the years that I've been enjoying these fresh, crispy, and spicy chicken during my nashville visits, I know that I can always count on high quality food and great service consistently - regardless of whatever location you are visiting or how busy or what time of day it is. I'd say this certainly rings true if you're passing through Terminal C at the Nashville airport and want to get a hot chicken fix and are unable to venture into the city. As with every Hattie B's location you can expect a line and a crowd but it moves quickly (and there's plenty of seating which is a plus). On this recent visit I went with my usual of a 3 tenders combo....being an airport location it is a bit pricier than the city locations (and your combo only comes with one side not TWO but what can you expect from an airport spot). The food comes out fast and smoking hot and is every bit as delicious as the standard set by any other Hattie B's location you'll find in the city. If you're on the fly and need a quick meal in the Nashville airport don't miss out on this local favorite!

    Never disappoints! At least once a year I'm at the bna location this time I took my son and he loved it too. I hate tater tots but these were good crispy and flavorful. Man I tell you they have never disappointed me

    Visited Hattie B's Hot Chicken while in Nashville. The atmosphere was busy and fast-paced, and the service was efficient, with a single cashier moving quickly between two registers to keep the line flowing. As a first-timer, you'll need to make a quick decision when ordering, but once you're through, things move along well. Tried their Nashville hot chicken -- and it definitely delivered, giving me a solid authentic benchmark for how it's supposed to taste. Pro tip: get the hot sauce on the side -- it makes it much easier to control the spice level. Overall, a solid airport dining experience and a great authentic taste of Nashville hot chicken. Saluti.

    The food was good, but please beware that the mild is really spicy. They give a good portion of chicken which is very juicy but short on the fries portion. Also, they only provide one ranch for the large portion and charge .55 for extra. The space is small, so you have to fight for a seat or take it back to your terminal. The workers are short with customers.

    Fried Chicken Sandwich

    I haven't had Hattie B's in years! But I remember how much I loved this chicken place when I was in the Nashville area. Luckily I found this after my flight, right before leaving the terminal for baggage claim and the airport exit. There aren't any food options in the baggage claim area and once you leave the terminal, you can't turn around. There was a pretty long line but it went by fast. I ordered the Fried Hot Chicken sandwich with a side of coleslaw, honey mustard sauce, and a bottled water. For everything it was over $17. Wait time wasn't so bad. For the large amount of people they were serving, they were quick. So I forgot that it already came with a smaller side of coleslaw, so I had two coleslaws lol. But I love their coleslaw. The veggies tasted fresh and crunchy, and the dressing was nice and light. I obliterated both of my coleslaw containers because it was so tasty. For the sandwich, it was great. I love pickles, so I love how they gave me a good amount. The chicken piece they gave was huge! (I took a picture to show how large the chicken was after two bites because I was hungry and the thought occurred to me then). The chicken was juicy, had a great golden crispy outside, and it was seasoned good. Flavor was just outstanding. And the sauce they spread inside the sandwich just tied everything together. My sandwich was so delicious, that I forgot about my honey mustard sauce in the bag. It was just that good. And I was just so hungry too lol. All in all, I'm so happy to run into Hattie B's at the airport. This place is a great option. It was a little pricy (especially the bottled water), but that's to be expected about airport food. It's good to know that after a long flight I can come here and get some good food.

    Tenders & tots

    Listen, after a LONG week in Nashville this was exactly the breakfast of champions that I needed to propel me through my travel day. Got this delicious 3 piece tender & tater tots meal ($14) plus a bottle soda ($3.50) at the airport. It was easy to order and it was relatively fast to get the food. The staff were super friendly and checked on how my meal was as I enjoyed it at the bar top. The chicken was SO FREAKIN JUICY and flavorful and big!! Very generous portions and the spicy level was perfect for HOT. I would absolutely eat here again next time I'm at this airport at another location! (Side note: I was craving fries, but the only side they had available were tater tots... But the tater tots were crispy and delicious so it all worked out lol but just a heads up it was only the one side option, at least that early)

    Medium tenders and fries
    Charissa T.

    Not their best location, but for the airport its pretty alright. It was a long line but I got my food pretty quickly and it moved through. The tenders were not as spicy as I thought they would be, but they were hot and the fries were very crispy. There was a lot of seating which is good for an airport, with bright red chairs.

    Hattie B's Hot Chicken has some of the best chicken I've had in Tennessee. If you've been a Hattie B's you know that to be true. This review is about their macaroni and cheese I had the mac and cheese by itself as my wife wanted chicken and I only wanted a light meal ,nothing fried before I got on a 4 hr night flight. Normally mac and cheese is a go-to because it is warm and comforting. THIS WAS NOT IT..... This mac and cheese was not very good,not something I'm used to when visiting a Southern State. The cheese tasted fabricated and the macaroni was way mushier than macaroni noodles should be. I think they should keep trying, however because I did not eat the mac and cheese and I was too far away from the location inside the airport to return, I decided just to toss it and eat nothing. Hattie B's managers or cooks should really taste their mac and cheese before serving it to anyone I hope this is just a one-off and it's not as bad as the one I had. I should have listened to the cashier when she told me it wasn't that good to her. Either way good luck and if you like it you like it maybe it's just me I will try it again next time I visit Tennessee just not the one in the airport.

    Incredible chicken and fries! Such good flavor, fresh, crispy, tenders. Perfectly cooked. The wait wasn't too bad. They were fast. The workers were also nice and informative. Overall very clean and I like the branding!

    When I tell you, I am so thankful that I found this place!…read more Every time I go to BNA I always try to make it to Hattie B's. And Hattie B's is definitely a touristy place inside and outside the airport, and while the chicken is pretty good, the prices are high and for some reason I don't get my airport discount. So one day I had gotten off at gate number 4 and walked by Princes Hot Chicken. They didn't have any customers, but they did have their food on display so you can see what you were ordering. I ended up getting their medium spice fried chicken tenders with macaroni and cheese on the side, and let me tell you: I should've been eating here the whole time! On my second visit I got their chicken tenders again with the mac & cheese, and I ate it all in one sitting. And the other day my friend was at the airport and I recommended getting it as well. We're only going to Princes Hot Chicken from now on. It's so good!

    My fault yall I…read morewanted to try Prince's, Hattie B and Bolton's on my trip but my wife wanted Red's (and she's not an "eat hot chicken 3 days in a row" kinda gal) so I was like hey I'm right here and I just flew from CA so let me try this place Keep in mind that Hattie's is around the corner but opposite of the baggage claim from D Gates so Prince's it was. Got the 4 tenders Medium with a side of Collard Greens. Greens had a funny aftertaste that I'm not used to, not good or bad, just different. Very flavorful even if I can't pinpoint what the flavor is. Strips were nice and had good breading, very greasy. Made my wife kinda sick, really flared up her gastritis. Kinda forgettable heat wise especially for medium. If you can't make it anywhere else then sure drop in but if you can't, it's worth going out of you way outside of the airport for Nashville Hot Chicken

    This place was so cool guys they had their own merch you can get Popsicles or so many flavors…read more There was outdoor seating and indoor seating. They do have parking since it is a plaza with other businesses. My chicken wings were so crispy but juicy the flavor had a kick to it I decided to add garlic parmesan as my flavor as well such a great mix with the Nashville hot. The mac and cheese was so creamy and cheesy. The tenders was pack with heat and very delicious pair very well with the collard greens to cool down the heat and the potato salad. Me and hubby really enjoy this meal and it was our first meal when we got to Nashville and it was only 10 minutes from my Airbnb which was awesome. I was a little sad when I realized I won't ever get this chicken again in North Carolina..... Unless somebody know something similar in North Carolina please let me know lol thank you so much for an awesome first meal to start my Nashville/birthday trip!

    Very good chicken! Awesome flavor. Cooked perfectly! Spice is just right!…read more The guy at the counter was really helpful when trying to decide what to order. He made great suggestions on spice levels and how "well" they cook their wings. I went with three whole wings, sauced medium, cooked well done. Food arrives and I am a happy boy! The wings are perfect and the beans are good!! Win. Win. While I was sitting inside I started to see a pretty hefty vagrant situation outside. I didn't notice it at first when I pulled up, but by the time I left there were 6-8 homeless looking folk in the parking lot. One guy came in and asked to use the bathroom. They let him, I was there another 20 mins or so and he never came out. Hmmm Bottom line. Chicken is good. I would come here again no matter the area. I love fried chicken!! 26' - 101
