Looking for Team-Building Ideas in Nashville? Start With a Meal They’ll Actually Remember
Corporate teams visiting Nashville need to eat — but what if that meal could also build real connections, spark laughter, and leave everyone talking about your company’s trip for years to come?
That’s exactly what we do at A Little Local Flavor, Nashville’s top-rated food tour company, offering team-building food tours and private dining experiences that turn a simple lunch or dinner into something unforgettable.
Whether you're feeding a small leadership team or planning a unique outing for a conference group of 300, we specialize in creative, local, and high-touch experiences that celebrate the best of Nashville’s food and culture — without the stress of planning it all yourself.
The Ultimate Win-Win: Feed Your Team While Supporting Local Nashville Businesses
Every Tour Tells a Story, And Every Bite Supports the Community
We’re not just about food. We’re about people, and we love planning unforgettable group activities in Nashville.
Every stop on our tour is carefully chosen to spotlight locally owned restaurants, bars, candy makers, and musicians, the real flavor of Nashville. Our guests don’t just eat, they meet the chef who built the menu, the bartender who invented the whiskey infusion, or the fourth-generation candy maker rolling caramel by hand.
““This was a highlight of our Nashville trip. Mathew gave an outstanding tour that felt personal, not scripted. We loved knowing our money supported local spots.” Carlos Burnett, Google Review, Miami, FL”
Team Building That Doesn’t Feel Forced
Unscripted Moments Spark Real Connection
Our tours are designed to get people talking, not with icebreakers or awkward games, but with shared experiences and spontaneous laughter.
You’ll hear stories that bring downtown Nashville’s history to life, sample some of the best food in the city, and get to know your colleagues in a relaxed, engaging way.
And if your group includes people from out of town? Even better. Our tours make you feel like a local by the end of the afternoon.
““I brought my team of 30 engineers for a team-building outing, and they’re still talking about the bourbon caramel and the rooftop view at Acme. It was relaxed, fun, and authentic — exactly what we needed after three days of conference sessions.” — Nicole Warner, TripAdvisor Review, Chicago, IL”
Nashville’s Most Flexible and Scalable Private Food Tour
Nashville Food tours From 10 to 120 Guests - or a 300-Person Custom Event
We’ve hosted everything from executive retreats and incentive trips to company holiday parties and national sales meetings. Need a private walking tour for 30? A custom food and drink crawl for 100? A pop-up local tasting experience for 300 guests? We do it all. We have hosted over 250 corporate events for Fortune 100 companies like Amazon, American Express, Chase and more, plus other names you know like Kohler, Cheddars Restaurants, Deloitte, and many more smaller family owned companies.

Why Corporate Groups Choose A Little Local Flavor for their Team Building Activites
1. Meaningful Connection Through Shared Food and Stories
Connection is the heart of everything we do. Since the beginning of time, the most meaningful human connections have been built over shared food and drink. Whether it’s colleagues toasting over craft cocktails or sharing stories between bites of Nashville’s best brisket, our experiences are designed to foster genuine connection. We don’t just feed your team, we bring them closer. From spontaneous laughter to deeper conversations sparked by local stories, we believe the best team building happens when people feel at home, heard, and are well-fed.
2. Exclusive Food and Drink Experiences
We don’t serve the cheapest dish at each stop, we serve the best. Think fall-apart ribs, brisket, house-made caramels, and craft cocktails included. Some dishes on our tours aren’t even on the restaurant's regular menu anymore, they’re just for our guests.
3. Insider Access to Nashville’s History and Culture
Our guides are trained storytellers, performers, and creatives. We bring history to life with stories that surprise and inspire. And we don’t shy away from the real stories, from the Christmas Day bombing to the city’s growing pains.
4. Seamless Planning and Support
Planning for a large group? We know your time is limited. We’ve streamlined our planning process and provide all logistics, timeline planning, dietary accommodations, and restaurant coordination. All you have to do is show up, and maybe bring your appetite.
