We’re on the final leg of our ultimate North American road trip, picking up from Soho House Nashville. If you’re only just tuning in, here’s a quick recap. To celebrate 20 years of our North American Houses, Pro BMX rider, Jarren Barboza, has been driving a Porsche Cayenne E-Hybrid from Los Angeles to New York and stopping at different Houses in between. Using the Connect function on the Soho House app, he has connected with local Soho House members for recommended hotspots to visit along the way.  

For the last part of the journey, Barboza drove from Soho House Nashville to Soho House New York.  

Read on for our suggested spots for your own trip.
