With more than 13 million visitors every year, Nashville is one of the hottest tourist destinations in the United States. If you plan on going to Music City, you are in for a treat. During the day, you can visit Nashville cornerstones like the Country Music Hall of Fame and Frist Center for the Visual Arts.
When the sun goes down on this historic city and it’s time for a drink, you have plenty of great options available to you. From hip hot spots to classic speakeasies and more, Nashville has a bar scene for every type of tourist.
Fans of the hit TV show “Nashville” will recognize this bar immediately. While its fame is certainly a big draw for many, you don’t have to be a binge-watcher to enjoy this hotspot. As East Nashville’s only live music venue, The 5 Spot has lots of great entertainment.
This fun bar is known to host events such as the Monday Night Dance Party, swing music nights, Sunday Night Soul, and plenty of up-and-coming artists. Of course, their great drink specials and a variety of mainstream liquors can help you get your groove on.
Are you convinced that you were a flapper in a past life? If so, you definitely cannot miss The Patterson House. This classic Nashville bar is known as the first speakeasy in Nashville, and it still sticks to its Prohibition-era roots.
When you go looking for The Patterson House, you won’t find flashing lights guiding the way. In fact, you won’t even find more than their hours on their website. That’s just how old-school this bar is. However, when you walk through the humble front door, you may just feel like you’ve traveled through time. The perfect thirties decor, finely crafted drinks, and attentive bartenders will make you feel quite sophisticated.
If you know all the coolest DJs before they become mainstream, love Beat writers, and enjoy a good drink, Bar No. 308 is perfect for you. At this cool establishment, you’ll find themed nights with awesome DJs most days of the week. Bar No. 308 also serves up signature shots named for famous Beat writers. Slam back a Dorothy Parker or honor Bukowski with a shot.
