Whit Bradford

Executive Chef 

Born in a small town between Nashville and Chattanooga, TN, Chef Whit grew up with home cooked southern style meals from his grandparents. He learned to love cooking while serving as a missionary overseas in the Saint Petersburg, Russia area. Learning alongside friends that ran their own restaurants, he found how much enjoyed cooking and seeing the impact food could make in a persons daily life.

After working in a few chain restaurants and learning the basics, he landed at the Palm in Nashville at the end of Covid. Learning more from those around him, he worked through various positions landing as a sous chef after a few short years. His hard work, eye for detail, high standards in the food he and his team presents, he earned the opportunity to lead the kitchen at the Palm in Nashville. He looks forward to serving the great guests in Nashville, and being a part of the Palm's longstanding reputation for great food and service.
