The Best Shopping Neighborhoods in Nashville | Nashville Guru

There’s no designated shopping district in Nashville, but certain neighborhoods have a better-than-average selection of retail offerings. From department stores to small boutiques, we have your shopping needs covered! Here is Nashville Guru’s guide to the best shopping neighborhoods in Music City.

Green Hills

Green Hills has a ton of great stores which is why its always pretty busy. The first obvious stop is the popular Mall at Green Hills, which houses necessities like an Apple Store, Crate & Barrel, Nordstrom and popular brands like Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Kate Spade, Zara, Free People, Madewell, Coach, and Burberry, all under one roof. For a more boutique shopping experience, the nearby Hill Center offers up Hemline (women’s clothing), Posh (women’s clothing), White’s Mercantile (modern general store), and H. Audrey (women’s clothing)—plus decor destinations Pottery Barn (furniture and decor store) and West Elm (furniture and decor store). And while you’re in the area, you might as well stock up on groceries at either Whole Foods or Trader Joe’s. Still, have energy? A visit to Parnassus (indie bookstore), across from the mall, never disappoints.
