    Shame on me for waiting so long to visit this charming shopping center. My daughter and I went to eat at the sushi place but it is permanently closed like 98% of the shops. The one remaining boutique was kind enough to fill me in; the long time owner passed away and it was purchased from a New York developer who plans to renovate and install elite, exclusive brand shops. This boutique will have to relocate as she was informed that space would become more inline with NYC examples and rent raised 5 or 6 times what they currently pay! What a waste of a unique space!

    I found The Arcade to be interesting, but also with a lot left to be desired. We came on a weekend and 90% of the businesses are only open Mon-Fri, so that was a bummer. If you work around the area, it seems like it could be a pretty cool place to take your lunch; they have all kinds of shops with different ethnic foods to try. They also have some cute boutiques, some which are open on weekends too. You can easily tell that the inside is pretty dated and has been around for a while. While walking around the second floor, the floors are very creaky and everything could use a bit of renovating. In other way though, it kinda shows its history by its looks. It was cool to check out, but if you aren't already in the area I would skip it. A lot consider it a mall, which I would not. Just a few little things to browse through, a lot of which are galleries.

    I love playing the games they had here. Their pinballs are amazing. They have a huge variation of pinballs to choose from. They do cost tokens but honestly I think it's worth it to me.

    A real diamond in the rogue...You have to experience this Hidden Gem in the Heart of Nashville Metro Center! Great place to eat!! This is centrally located in the Metro City area and only a few blocks from Anywhere or Anything in downtown Nashville. After my husband and I left 417 Union, we arrived at "Manny's House of Pizza" in the Arcade. I love this restaurant. It is my favorite pizza place downtown, and I love to go here during my lunch break at work. I work at 333 Commerce Street at the Bat Building for AT&T. My friend Craig Alea and I would walk over here and have lunch in the warmer months. My favorite is a slice of Pepperoni Pizza with Jalapeno Peppers. You can order pizza by the slice or whole. They also have spaghetti with or without meatballs and lasagna and then you can order Pepperoni Rolls, Calzones or Strombolli if you get a chance to go here you must!! The Arcade also has other restaurants and a Post Office. There are tables located in the walkway and in the summertime they have these really large Industrial fans blowing a breeze down the hallway!! Upstairs there are some shops and offices. This was the first (MALL) style building in Nashville in the early 1900's..the history of this building is wonderful. You should research and read about it. There is also a PEANUT Shoppe located here on the middle corner, where the alley cuts through the middle. It is an old store and I am sure there is a lot of history in there too!!! Let me know what you think? What is your favorite Arcade restaurant? A real hidden gem you need to experience when you arrive in Nashville.

    The Arcade is not the food hall that other cities have and Nashville will have by 2020/2021, although it does sound like that. It is a building with several restaurants inside as well as many tables to eat at. However, almost everything inside the Arcade is open only Monday through Friday, so it's really a lunch spot for people that work downtown more than anything else. I haven't been to all of the restaurants inside the Arcade, but I've been impressed by some and less impressed by others. I wouldn't necessarily recommend it to tourists as it's not much to look at (I think people are expecting the modern white subway-tiled food hall when hearing a description of the Arcade), but if you're looking for an affordable, quick lunch option where locals actually eat, this isn't a bad spot. They also host an art crawl that I've been to once but I can't remember its day or frequency! A convenient lunch spot. We state government workers are sure glad it's there.

    Wow. I love it. It was pretty much abandoned today, so I had a good walk around The Arcade, peering in windows and squeaking across original hardwood along the balcony. It's a step back in time. Shoe repairs, a fruit stand/convience store, a hair salon that made me want to call it a "beauty parlor", cupcake shop, old post office, tiny restaurants with out door seating, and newer gallery spaces that thankfully sink back into their store fronts and do nothing to draw attention away from the feel of the walkway. This time capsule is a perfect break for us people who are sick to death of big box stores and massive parking lots. I love walking around small shops. I've heard of occasional artwalks there, and I want to see what that experience is like when my husband and I get a chance. Thanks yelp!

    Awesome Downtown Nashville find. Lots of cute little restaurants and a few little shops. We ate at a place called Oriental Lunch and satisified our craving for greasy Chinese food for cheap.

What had prior to 2021 been the abandoned Nashville Convention Center is now a modern mixed use development that has brought life into Broadway west of the "Honkey Tonk Highway" stretch. It features a shopping mall, Assembly Food Hall, a retail scape fronting Broadway, The Place at Fifth, the National Museum of African American Music, and the towering landmark 501 Commerce Street Building. It has brought an Apple Store, Sephora, Shake Shack, Hattie B's, Prince's Chicken, and more to Broadway. On my vacation, I had caught it's act several times. The one sight that always stood out was the consistent long line to Hattie B's. My visits here included Assembly Food Hall, Prince's Fried Chicken, the Twelve Thirty Club, visit the Apple Store, and walk around. My impression was that the stores and restaurants are reasonably priced. Although the restaurants and stores provide decent value, to me the greatest value here was the photo opportunities. The focal point of the development, the L-shaped mall which bridges Broadway with Rep. John Lewis Way gives the gift of a prime photo spot for the 1) Ryman Auditorium where the original Grand Ol Opry performed and 2) Bridgestone Arena. The restaurants, especially in the Assembly Hall provide an opportunity to photograph food. I recommend the Assembly Food Hall Bridge to photograp the historic Ryman Auditorium. Additionally , I learned that if I stood on Broadway by the Bridgestone Arena, that Fifth Plus Broadway made a dynamic photo showing modern and historic Broadway, with the modern Fifth Plus Broadway architecture including towers contrasting with the historic Honkey Tonk Highway streetscape. As far as safety, I felt safe. The one annoyance that I saw were street hustlers at the Rep. John Lewis Way entrance aggressively bothering passer-by. During all of my visits here it was busy. There is a safety in numbers. On the subject of safety, the hot and humid summers need to be taken into account. On a few occasions we had escaped the excruciating heat in the air conditioned Assembly Food Hall for a couple of hours. I rate Fifth Plus Broadway "Four Stars." It is doing a remarkable job extending the lively Broadway restaurant and entertainment scene beyond the western edge of the Honkey Tonk Highway.

I will say that the mall was clean, well lit, and there's a ton to do here for the whole family. It's not just your typical mall, this is almost like an entertainment resort. Because Opry Mills is full of entertainment and is touristy, this place can get very busy on weekends or when there's a show at the Grand Ole Opry, so it's best to visit during the week.

Opry Mills combines shopping, dining, entertainment, and activities for the whole family. I LOVE that this mall is indoors. I feel like outdoor malls are the trend in the South, and I hate how on a rainy or cold day (yes, it gets cold), you have to brave the elements to go from store to store. Not here. Some of the stores here are outlets, and some are regular mall stores. I saw plenty of sales, and the selection in the stores was generally good. I shopped at the LOFT outlet and found a larger selection than other LOFT outlets I've been in. The Kate Spade outlet also had a good selection, although I didn't buy anything there (I love their products). The food court is excellent with both chain options as well as some spots that seem to be more local to Nashville. I opted for Panda Express, and it was just like every other Panda Express, but sometimes that's what you want in a food order meal. I wish my hometown had a mall like Opry Mills- all of ours are outdoor or have a lot of vacancies. If you're visiting Nashville or staying at the Opryland Hotel, definitely come to the mall for a fun afternoon.
