Finding a good place to eat in Nashville is not a difficult task, folks. It’s finding the right place to eat in Nashville that really presents a conundrum. With so many boutique eateries and high end restaurants and dive bars scattered across town, it can get really overwhelming to find just a simple, high-quality spot to snag a sandwich and catch a breath. Well, good news. We found it. Located to the west of city center, the Nations neighborhood is home to a true blue local secret: 51st Deli.

GoogleMaps 51st Deli is a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it local deli that serves everything from breakfast all day long to decadent subs. It’s a true Nashville bodega, and the pride and joy of The Nations neighborhood. Located in west Nashville, it’s a slight trek from downtown for newbies, but a time honored pilgrimage for locals.
