    I am going to have to take a 34 Monday in west Tennessee off of i40. Im hoping to find a truck stop within walking distance of a bar. I was hoping the north 40 had alcohol nearby but i couldn't find anything. The closer to Nashville the better but can stop anywhere from memphis to Nashville.

    Ps. I dont drink often, its been 3 weeks for example. Also, I won't drink in the truck which is why I'm looking for a bar. I dont drink within 24 hours of driving etc, so no need for lecture about regulations.

    Used to be a strip joint at the exit north 40 is on. I don’t know how much land that new love’s takes up, but it would be next door if still there.

    The Pilot in Dickson has a Logans Roadhouse and Ruby Tuesday right across the road, both have bars.

    I think you gotta hike up a hill to get to them if I am thinking of the same ones. A seafood place across the street from them too.

    as this man said.



    if that pilot is full you used to be able to park next to the motel down towards Logan roadhouse against the tracks.


    If you don’t mind a short walk up the street Cindys cafe makes a nice breakfast.

    I may or may not have driven partially down those tracks to get a 16’ wide stretch load shoe horned into that gravel lot when I-40 was closed due to an accident. #### day cab drivers parked like they were the only ones staying at the hotel that night.

    The hell with the do gooders, have a few on your 34, and it doesn't matter if you had 20 on your last time off.
    If you don't get pissy drunk, have one or two on your downhill slide back to work.
    What is it 8 hours before driving? Given your wasted.

    You might want to look in Jackson, TN too. It's a pretty big place. Just google what truckstops are there and use the overhead satellite to see what is around.
