Banana pudding is a HUGE thing here in Tennessee, and Nashville has slowly adapted to its birthright as its capital city. There are seven restaurants that are great if you’re looking to indulge in a creamy, banana-infused treat, no matter the time of day. Pair it with hot chicken or barbecue, find yourself heaping on seconds at an all you can eat family buffet, or maybe even make your own. No matter how you enjoy it, this is one of the best desserts in Nashville. Take a look at where to get some of the best banana pudding in Nashville.

Edley's may be known for their bbq, but they hold a solid stand when it comes to their dessert menu. Although their pies may look killer — and they are — we'd recommend going for their banana pudding. It's creamy, made in-house, and completely delicious.
2. Hattie B's Hot Chicken

You have to cool off your mouth somehow! We were pleasantly surprised with the offerings at Hattie B's, with a crumbly Nilla wafer topping that added just the right amount of crunch to balance the creamy.
3. Monell's Dining & Catering
