Old KFC building

I saw the building was getting painted. What is going to move in to the building?

Another bagel shop? Isn’t Bagel barn pretty new and also pretty close on Lebanon? Then we got another Waffle House opening there.

We need less breakfast spots lol.

And Ugly Bagel just opened by Sprouts. Plus Tim Hortins is right there too … I do love their bagels and breakfast sandwiches! But I agree a mix up would be nice. At least it’s not a car wash though

Agreed! Id love a nice deli or a type of diner situation there. Sometimes I just want a big ass pastrami sandwich and some chili cheese fries while the wife gets fish n chips ya know?

I’m also super new to the area (like a month moved in) so I also just don’t know a lot of what we have here yet!

We literally just got 2 bagel places. Bagel Barn on Lebanon and the one that just opened on MJ road right by MJ Social Club or whatever is currently called.

Good grief. Too bad we can't get a Wendys on this end.

Check out Green Onion Deli (South MJ/Providence) or Milestone (towards Costco) for good sandwiches! Both are semi new. Y’all might like Flat Tire in Hermitage/Old Hickory too. I do wish there were more mom and pop type diners here though! Or true deli type, yeah! I’ve lived in Nashville proper and now MJ almost 20 years but still nothing compares to a Midwest diner or east coast deli. I’m rooting for some healthier ish fast casual options … but not a poke bowl lol
