East Nashville's Five Points just saw one of its busiest dining corners change hands, with the buildings that house bartaco and Edley's Bar-B-Que selling this week in a deal pegged at roughly $8.5 million. For regulars, it looks like a behind-the-scenes property shuffle rather than a shake-up of their favorite taco and barbecue spots.
Deal details
According to the Nashville Business Journal, a local firm sold the East Nashville development that includes Bartaco and Edley's for about $8.5 million. The property had been listed on Crexi under the name "10th and Woodland," with an asking price near $8.85 million and marketing materials noting that the buildings were fully occupied.
The listing also called out the site's roughly half-acre footprint and 33-space parking lot, perks that help explain why restaurant real estate in dense, walkable neighborhoods keeps drawing investor attention.
Tenants and property
Both restaurants are still serving customers. bartaco continues to list its East Nashville location at 1000 Woodland Street, and Edley's Bar-B-Que lists its neighboring Five Points spot at 1004 Woodland Street.
Metro Beer Board records tie the beer permits at those addresses to Bartaco Five Points, LLC and EDLEY'S EAST, LLC, which points to the sale affecting the real estate itself rather than the operating businesses. In practical terms, that likely means no immediate changes for diners while the new owner works through post-closing paperwork. Your tacos and pulled pork are, for the moment, safe.
Why it matters
The Five Points sale is another sign that investors are still keen on Nashville's walkable retail and restaurant strips, and it fits into a broader run of commercial deals across the city. A roundup of major 2025 transactions shows both institutional and local buyers pursuing stable, income-producing retail properties.
For Five Points, this latest transaction shifts who owns a key corner of the neighborhood while keeping two of its anchor restaurants right where locals expect to find them.
