    Situated at one end of Opry Mills near Madam Tussaud's, IT'SUGAR eats up a fairly large piece of…read morereal estate inside the mall and features all things candy from gummies, hard candies, chocolates, gum and legit everything in between plus more. Anytime I am wandering around Opry Mills I somehow find my way here, whether I am actually after candy or just wasting time...either way, worth it. While the prices are not the greatest, the selection is top tier. I am a chocolate guy, so I stick to the perimeter of the store where most of the chocolate tends to be. While they have all the classics, they have a lot of themed end caps and stations throughout the store. If chocolate is not your thing, then head to the multiple "candy by the pound" stations in the middle of the store and load up on all things candy from sour to sweet, nugget to rope and even suckers. They do have one chocolate station, which I have been known to utilize in filling up a bag. Service was fairly limited, even though there were multiple people on the floor, none were engaged with customers. When I was ready to check out, one associate from the floor met me at the register. She was monotone and fairly low energy for a candy shop associate. Service definitely did not fit the vibe of the brand. Overall, cool spot with loads of sweets. While you will not find me at Opry Mills too often, when you do, there is a high chance that I have an IT'SUGAR bag in hand.

    My son insisted on coming into this store so we stopped by. This store has a wide variety of candy…read morefrom popular types to more obscure and novelty items. We were not greeted or asked if we needed assistance, but we didn't really need any help. Overall, a cute place--especially for kids and teens.

    Funny story, a couple years ago I asked my tattoo artist (Jason @ Mooncastle!) for food…read morerecommendations in the area and this was the one he seemed most passionate about. I took my mama there that same weekend and the rest is history.. The whole family was hooked. I live out of state, but my mom and son, in Springfield, frequent this place on special days out. They share a birthday, April 9th, and were having a birthday lunch there this afternoon, when I got the idea to call the restaurant to ask if there was any way I could provide a card to cover their lunch, since you pay at the end. I was greeted and helped by the kindest woman, Alicia. She found them, about to leave, and hurried to take my info! She was lovely in the sincerest way. I gave her my phone number if there were any issues. Well, there were, as my lovely mom perused their delightful gift shop area (think Cracker Barrel but better) so long the pre-auth expired and my card declined! LOL HAPPY BIRTHDAY GUYS The girl who called back to get things squared away was just as darling as could be, I'm sorry I didn't get your name, but thank you. Thanks to all of you for your help :) As for the food, my son said: "incredible, as usual." 5 million star experience every time! The meat and 3 concept is a dying art that they have mastered.

    Chef's Market Cafe & Takeaway is one of those places that's easy to love and easy to come back to…read more The cafeteria-style setup makes it quick and approachable, but the food is where it really shines. Portions are generous, everything feels fresh and comforting, and it's consistently done well. We've eaten here in person and grabbed it to go on busy nights, and it holds up every time. Our personal favorites are the chicken, pot roast, and meatloaf, all hearty, flavorful, and exactly what you want when you're craving a solid comfort meal. One of the things I love most about this place is that it truly feels like "come as you are." There's no single type of crowd here. You'll see families, business meetings, date nights, people dressed up, people dressed casually, groups of two, groups of four, and even three generations sitting together. It works before or after church, after school, after soccer games, or after work. No judgment, no pressure, just people showing up for great food and a great environment. What really stands out is how respectful and welcoming everyone is. Whether it's a toddler learning to eat, someone needing a little extra space, or a busy group navigating a crowded moment, people are patient, kind, and considerate of one another. The staff and guests alike create an atmosphere that genuinely embodies Southern hospitality. What also makes this place special is how much thought has gone into the overall experience. While you're waiting in line, there are fun and unique extras to browse like recipe books, aprons, and thoughtful items for kids. Nothing feels like filler. It all adds to how warm and homey the space feels for locals and visitors alike. And then there's the dessert area, which deserves its own mention. There's an entire cake station behind a large glass case filled with massive, handmade-from-scratch cakes. You can grab slices, order whole cakes in advance, and even place special holiday dessert orders. It's decadent, impressive, and very hard to walk past without stopping. Even when it's incredibly busy, the team is friendly, efficient, and well organized. Whether dining inside, outside, or picking up food to go, the experience is always smooth and welcoming. Included are a few photos from the first time we ate there in person outside, though we've been back many times since. Shown here are the meatloaf with mashed potatoes and gravy and a roll and the roasted chicken with green beans and rosemary roasted potatoes for reference.

There were three flavors, coconut, cheesecake, and strawberry. The owner was super nice, and I was so excited to eat cotton candy because it had been years since I've had the chance. If there's an event and you want to add something extra fun and special, I'd definitely recommend adding this cotton candy bar. People loved it!

That's it! I Follow them harmlessly from a safe distance of fifty feet (pretty sure that's what the restraining order specifies) to whatever local venue they may be at to get my fix. If you would like to follow harmlessly as well, I suggest following their IG page for current locations or if you are in Nashville run -do not walk- to their store to pick up that yummy nummy red velvet. Seriously, they are THAT good. Grandkiddos like the cookies & cream too.
