This holiday season, two popular Broadway destinations are giving back to those who serve on the front lines.

Jason Aldean’s Kitchen and Rooftop Bar and Posty’s are offering free Christmas meals to on-duty, uniformed first responders from December 23 through December 26, as a gesture of appreciation for the men and women who work through the holidays to keep communities safe.

The two venues, located at 305 and 307 Broadway, announced the initiative as a way to say thank you during one of the busiest — and most meaningful — times of the year.

A Holiday Thank-You for Those on Duty

Eligible first responders will be able to enjoy a free meal valued up to $30 at either restaurant during the four-day period. The offer applies to dine-in and take-out orders and is available exclusively to on-duty, in-uniform first responders.

Gratuity is not included.

The initiative highlights a growing trend among Nashville’s Broadway venues to use the holiday season as an opportunity to support essential workers who often sacrifice time with their families.

Dates and Hours of Operation

The free-meal program will run during the following hours:

• Tuesday, December 23: Open at 11 a.m.

• Wednesday, December 24: Open at 11 a.m.

• Thursday, December 25 (Christmas Day): Open at 12 p.m.

• Friday, December 26: Open at 10 a.m.

First responders may visit either location during operating hours to redeem the offer.

A Meaningful Gesture During the Holidays

Jason Aldean’s Kitchen and Posty’s are well-known Broadway spots, frequently attracting locals and visitors alike. By opening their doors to first responders during the holiday period, the venues are offering more than just a meal — they’re offering recognition.

For those working long shifts while others celebrate, the gesture provides a moment of warmth and appreciation in the middle of a demanding season.

As Christmas approaches, the initiative serves as a reminder that small acts of gratitude can make a meaningful difference — especially for those who rarely get time off when the rest of the city slows down.
