The original Hot Chicken that started it all. Although the originators, this isn't their original location or best but it's the closest to the downtown area if you want to give it a try, but it doesn't deliver anywhere near the truth of what the locals love about Prince's. The Brentioch location is much better but about 30mins out from the center of Nashville.
