📸 PHOTO DROP — WH***EY BRAVO IS COMING TOGETHER! 🥃🔥

Another 18-hour day in the books, wrapping up around midnight… and right back at it this morning. But seeing this place come together makes every long day worth it!

A few more things checked off the list:

🔥 Bar-back shelving is COMPLETE

🥃 Bar sign is hung

💻 POS system is officially in its final home

🔨 Bar top is ready for its final panels

🪑 Furniture is ON THE WAY — delivery expected in the next 2–4 days!

🎨 Some special art projects are underway, and the leaked photos are looking incredible

🏢 Our front building sign is scheduled for next week and should be hanging by the end of next week!

👥 Interviews are happening and we’re officially starting to BUILD THE WH***EY BRAVO TEAM!

And then there are the last few pictures… 😂

Some candid shots from the owners’ fur babies this morning:

“What do you mean you have to get ready for the gym and go back to work?! You JUST got home a few hours ago!” 🐶😂

Got a few morning cuddles from my youngest and the dogs before starting another day.

We’re tired. We’re excited. And every single day, Wh***ey Bravo Southern Kitchen & Smokehouse gets a little closer to opening its doors.

Clarksville… we can’t wait to show you what we’ve been building. 🥃🔥

🚨 WH***EY BRAVO UPDATE — WE’RE GETTING CLOSE! 🥃🔥

What a weekend — and what a BIG few days at Wh***ey Bravo!

If you’ve driven by lately, you’ve probably noticed things changing almost daily. What you don’t see is just how much work has been happening behind the scenes.

And when we say we’ve been working long days, we mean LONG days.

Our owner has been putting in 12+ hour days, heading home long enough to shower, eat dinner and spend a little time with his family — then coming back around 9 PM and working until 1–2 in the morning, only to be back at it again around 7 AM the next day.

Then doing it all over again.

Opening a restaurant in an older building has definitely thrown us some surprises 😂, but we’re knocking them out one by one.

Here’s what we accomplished just over the last several days:

🔥 THE SMOKE SHACK IS FINISHED!

Our smoker officially has its new home! The Smoke Shack is complete, and today we finished adding the hand-wash sink, hot water and plumbing needed to keep everything running properly.

🔨 Ramp completed & concrete pad poured

🍻 Bar-back cabinet built

🚰 THE PLUMBING NIGHTMARES ARE FINALLY BEHIND US!

And “nightmares” might actually be putting it lightly.

Since taking over the building, we’ve dealt with 15 different water-line repairs — including leaks in the attic and lines hidden behind finished bathroom walls that had to be opened back up.

We replaced the main water pressure valve, rebuilt the three backflow valve assemblies, repaired toilets and chased leaks throughout the building.

At one point, we even had a toilet spraying water from underneath the tank and across the seat. 😂

Every time we thought we found the last plumbing problem, the building seemed to say, “Hold my beer…”

But today, we can finally say: WE GOT IT DONE.

🚒 FIRE MARSHAL WALK-THROUGH

Today we also completed our first walk-through inspection with the Montgomery County Fire Marshal’s office.

That is another major step checked off the list as we continue working toward opening day.

💳 POS SYSTEM IS LIVE

Our Shift4 POS system has been installed, and the host stand, bar, server stations and kitchen POS are now up and operational.

🎨 LOCAL ART IS GOING UP

We also picked up two hand-painted Wh***ey Bravo signs from a local artist that will be displayed inside the restaurant.

And she isn’t finished yet — next week, she’ll be painting our large building sign as well!

We love being able to bring pieces from local artists into Wh***ey Bravo and make this restaurant feel like it belongs to the community.

🔥 THE KITCHEN KEEPS GROWING

Last week we scored two fryers and a prep cooler through Marketplace and got them moved into their new home.

Piece by piece…

The kitchen is coming together.
The front of the house is coming together.
The Smoke Shack is ready.
And Wh***ey Bravo is finally starting to look like the restaurant we’ve been picturing from the beginning.

We are making progress by leaps and bounds every single day.

Dishwasher being delivered tomorrow and ice machine is inbound as well.

👋 WANT TO JOIN THE WH***EY BRAVO TEAM?

Our manager, Matt, will begin reaching out to those who have applied or expressed interest in joining the Wh***ey Bravo team.

We’ve received a tremendous amount of interest, so please be patient with us while Matt works his way through the list and reaches out to everyone.

We truly appreciate how many people want to be part of what we’re building.

🗓️ OPENING UPDATE

Right now, we are still PUSHING HARD for a launch the first weekend of September! 🥃🔥

There is still work to finish.

There are still inspections to complete.

There is food to prepare, a team to hire and train, and about a thousand little details that come with opening a restaurant.

But we’re getting there.

And every day, that opening-day checklist gets a little shorter.

To everyone who has followed this journey, shared our posts, stopped by to check on us, offered to help, told your friends about Wh***ey Bravo or simply cheered us on from the sidelines:

THANK YOU.

You’ve watched us take an old restaurant building and slowly bring it back to life.

Soon, instead of posting construction updates, we’ll be posting pictures of plates coming out of the kitchen. 🔥

We cannot wait to finally open these doors and meet all of you across the table.

🔥 The smoke is coming.
🥃 Wh***ey Bravo is coming.

Clarksville — we’ll see you soon.

🎨 Calling All Local Artists & College Art Students! 🎨

Wh***ey Bravo Southern Kitchen & Smokehouse is looking for a talented local artist or art student who would like to help leave their mark on a new Clarksville restaurant!

We're looking to commission one or more wall art pieces that celebrate the spirit of Tennessee, military heritage, Southern hospitality, or the history and character of our location. We're open to creative ideas and would love to showcase local talent throughout the restaurant before we officially open.

This is a great opportunity to:
• Have your artwork permanently displayed in a high-traffic local restaurant.
• Gain exposure to thousands of guests.
• Be featured on our social media and marketing.
• Support a locally owned, disabled veteran-owned small business.

If you're interested, or know someone who might be, send us a message with a few photos of your work, your ideas, and your contact information. We'd love to collaborate and create something that our community can be proud of!

Please share this post and help us connect with an amazing local artist! 🇺🇸🎨

❤️ HELP US FILL THE HEART WALL — AND WE’LL MATCH YOUR DONATION! ❤️

This one is personal for our family.

My wife works at Ascension Saint Thomas West in Nashville, where she sees firsthand the impact heart disease and cardiovascular conditions have on patients and their families. She is participating in the Heart Wall Challenge, and we want to rally our North Meets South Catering and Wh***ey Bravo community behind her.

Heart health has also touched our own family.

I lost my father to heart-related health issues about 4½ years ago, and my wife’s grandmother has also battled heart problems. We know we are far from alone.

❤️ About half of U.S. adults are living with some form of cardiovascular disease.
❤️ Nearly 126 million American adults have high blood pressure, one of the biggest risk factors for cardiovascular disease.
❤️ Heart disease remains the #1 cause of death in the United States.

Those statistics represent real people — parents, grandparents, spouses, friends, coworkers and neighbors.

So we want to do something to help.

🔥 THE WH***EY BRAVO + NORTH MEETS SOUTH MATCH 🔥

For every donation made by one of our followers toward her Heart Wall Challenge, North Meets South Catering AND Wh***ey Bravo Southern Kitchen & Smokehouse will match those donations.

That means your support goes even further. ❤️

Whether it’s $5, $10, $25, $50 or more, every donation helps — and together our community can turn a lot of small acts of generosity into something BIG.

This is about more than filling a wall with hearts. It’s about supporting the fight against a disease that affects millions of families, including ours.

❤️ Donate. Share. Help us fill the Heart Wall.
❤️ We’ll match the support from our community.
❤️ Together, let’s make a difference.

Thank you from our family and the entire teams at North Meets South Catering and Wh***ey Bravo Southern Kitchen & Smokehouse.

What a difference just a few days can make! 🤯🔥

The momentum at Wh***ey Bravo Southern Kitchen & Smokehouse has been incredible!

✅ Friday, we picked up our commercial 6-burner stove with oven, and while we were at it... we stumbled across an AMAZING deal on a second smoker! We couldn't pass it up.

✅ Sunday, despite the on-and-off rain, we cleaned up the entire back area, cleared out overgrown bushes and trees, and made room for the new smoker.

✅ Monday & Tuesday were all about progress! Our security panels went up, the smoker roof was built, and we're putting the finishing touches on it today.

✅ The kitchen walls have been painted, and the transformation is unbelievable. Pictures don't do it justice—it honestly feels like a completely different kitchen.

✅ Our new General Manager, Matt, has been working nonstop, going through checklists, building recipes, organizing menus, and dialing in ingredients so we're ready to hit the ground running.

✅ Equipment keeps arriving! Our sweet tea brewer, coffee machines, juice machine, and commercial dish machine have all been ordered, and site visits are complete.

✅ Our building sign has officially been ordered and should be installed in about two weeks!

Every day brings us one step closer to opening our doors, and we couldn't be more excited. Thank you to everyone who has followed this journey, shared our posts, offered encouragement, and believed in what we're building. It truly means the world to us.

One More Question...

Now that we have our second smoker, we're getting pretty anxious to fire it up!

We're thinking about partnering with our catering company, North Meets South Catering, to host a BBQ Launch Sale before Wh***ey Bravo opens.

Would anyone be interested in pre-ordering:
🥩 Smoked Pulled Pork by the pound
🍖 Full racks of our slow-smoked ribs

It would give everyone an early taste of what's coming to Wh***ey Bravo while helping us put our new smoker to work before opening day.

If there's enough interest, we'll announce a pickup date, pricing, and all the details.

We would also be handing out a Wh***ey Bravo Launch menu to those who came out. Shhh the menu is still a secret.....

If not... I guess we'll just have to do the hard work of eating it ourselves!

🎉 Meet the Leader Behind Wh***ey Bravo! 🎉

Please join us in giving a warm Wh***ey Bravo welcome to our new General Manager, Matt McCoin!

With 30 years of hospitality and restaurant leadership experience, Matt has built an impressive career spanning airport dining, full-service restaurants, quick-service operations, and food sales. His passion for developing strong teams, delivering exceptional guest experiences, and opening successful restaurant concepts makes him the perfect person to help lead Wh***ey Bravo into this exciting new chapter.

Matt and his wife have proudly called Clarksville home since 2014, where they've raised their family and now enjoy life as grandparents. When he's not leading restaurant teams, you'll likely find him smoking barbecue, tackling woodworking projects, or spending time with his family.

As we continue preparing for our September opening, we're incredibly excited to have someone with Matt's experience, leadership, and heart helping build the culture and guest experience that Wh***ey Bravo will be known for.

Please help us welcome Matt McCoin to the Wh***ey Bravo family! 👏

We can't wait for you to meet him when we open our doors.
