The Puckett’s roots go way back to the 1950s, and a little grocery store in the village of Leiper’s Fork, Tenn. Ever since then, we’ve been focused on providing friends new and old with great food and Southern hospitality.
When it comes down to it, Puckett’s is a community kitchen, with live pickin’ performances just a few feet from your table. Authentic comfort food—barbecue smoked slow ‘n’ low over cherry wood, the home-cooked sides, even a few upscale dishes—is what Puckett’s aims for you to remember!
Our philosophy is simple: Real Food, Real People, Real Fun.

On a truly special day, we chose this venue for our celebratory outing. I opted for the fried chicken and apple jack, pairing it with a delectable cup of coffee. Meanwhile, my partner savored the smoked brisket and hash, supplementing it with a side of biscuit and gravy. While she relished her main dish, the biscuit and gravy left a bit to be desired. I recall another companion selecting the fried chicken and potatoes. Although my chosen dish held an intriguing appeal, I must admit the chicken didn’t quite rank as the best I’ve experienced in Nashville.

Loved the atmosphere of this classic and popular spot. Did not think to make reservations and was worried it was going to be packed, but rolled right in for a Sunday dinner. Our bartender was friendly and super knowledgeable about the drinks on tap and menu. Pictured and ordered here is their Small BBQ Taco Salad which to me, was not small at all, yet just the right portion. The beef brisket was juicy and can go without the sauces but the BBQ chipotle ranch that came with, as well as both the original and spicy BBQ sauce bottles on deck, complimented the meat and salad well. I also enjoyed the Cowboy Caviar – fancy name for the black-eyed pea salad! Did not know Puckett’s brewed their own beer so had a glass of the Puckett’s Brew, a cold and delicious American Light Lager. Snoozed on not ordering their Pimento Cheese Bites but will need to order that next time.

The fried pickles are awesome. The half rack of ribs was fine, not the best I’ve had but good. My wife’s salad was tasty. The baked beans were great, as was the cornbread. The fruit tea was wonderful. Not a huge fan of the potato salad.

Walked here – with a recommendation from a nearby hotel – for an early dinner and drink. The dining area was moderately busy with tables of older tourists; I sat at the small bar, where you get a view of the whole smoked pork butts Service from the bartender was professional and friendly.

Service was great and everyone was friendly! Food was good; I tried the Nashville Cheesesteak and the cheese sauce was delicious. My sandwich would have been a lot better had the meat not been so fatty/chewy. We went on a Sunday evening around 7 and were seated right away.

Bring your appetite for a authentic country breakfast or fantastic BBQ. There is no band, the floor is unfinished cement, and solid wood chairs that don’t match. Grab a draft or you favorite cocktail served in a jar. The best part it is on the next block from the Marriott courtyard.

Stopped in here on a Sunday night and sat at the bar. We had an absolutely fantastic bartender; I wish I had his name to mention him. He was very personable, joked around with us, and recommended the food to order. We have been here several times before, but it has been years since we have been able to return here.

We came here for dinner on a weeknight. The food was good. This place serves a lot of people. We didn’t have a reservation so we sat and had dinner at the bar. The bartender was really good, I told my wife he was better than TV. My wife had a dinner salad with chicken. And I had a pulled pork sandwich with baked beans and coleslaw. We both really enjoyed what food we had and the atmosphere in the place was really fun. They had a band playing they were entertaining and the crowd really got into the music.

I had to stop a few days in Nashville while traveling, and I decided to eat here at Pukett’s. The food was amazing. They have some of the best fried chicken I’ve ever eaten as well as chicken fried steak. The restaurant is always extremely busy so I suggest arriving early
