For My Family

Nash Dogs was built on a simple belief: success should create more time with the people you love, not less. In 2019, I left the comfort of corporate life to build something that aligned with that belief. What started as a single hot dog stand has grown through hard work, community support, and a commitment to serving great food with genuine hospitality.

Our journey began in Old Hickory, after seeking a spot to put the hotdog stand I found an old Goodwill. It had closed but people kept dumping household items. It was an eyesore and would pile up. I had a light bulb moment and decided to call the realtor, I offered to clean the spot in exchange for a spot to setup. I shared on my story on Facebook and the community came out to support. Every day since the first day, the community has given me more reason to keep going. In 2022, my family and I expanded to Opry Mills Mall. It helped me learn to develop processes and build a support system of people around me. In 2024 I upgraded to a food trailer, and started to grow our catering services across Middle Tennessee. Creating lasting relationships with a lot of great businesses and people. All of that put me in the position to continue to grow. In 2025 I found an old Subway, called the owner and marked from March 2025 to November to renovate what has become Nash Dogs Café in Old Hickory. It is about a sixty second drive from my original spot. 

Today, Nash Dogs serves 100% Angus beef hot dogs, veggie dogs, loaded fries, burgers, banana pudding, and more. But we’re about more than food. We’re about creating memorable experiences, supporting our community, and treating every customer like family.We’re still building, still growing, and still chasing the dream of becoming a nationally recognized brand without losing the values that got us here: hard work, integrity, community, and people over profits.

The goal is to become a national brand, everyday my staff and I work hard to build that vision. We are pursing time freedom, happiness, peace for ourselves, friends, and families. 

Thank you for your support and thank you for being part of our journey.
