Does Waldo's have nugget ice?

What we found

• A Nashville-area resident reported (September 2026) that all Nashville-area Waldo's Chicken & Beer restaurants have nugget ice. We found no public source (company, press or review site) that says what kind of ice Waldo's uses, in Nashville or elsewhere.
• Waldo's started in Nashville's Germantown neighborhood in 2019 and now also has restaurants in Alabama, Arkansas, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Maryland, Mississippi, Oklahoma and the Memphis area. Those aren't pinned, because the report covers Nashville-area locations only and each Waldo's is locally owned and operated.
• We pin only Waldo's locations in the 14 counties of the Nashville–Murfreesboro–Franklin metro area. Addresses come from Waldo's official locations page (open locations only).
• If a pinned location doesn't have nugget ice, vote "no longer has it." If you've found nugget ice at a Waldo's somewhere else, add it.
