If you are looking for a sports bar, this is where you want to head. Wall to wall TVs broadcast all the games and the menu is a little New Orleans inspired. I suggest the frozen bellini! Located in Five Points, a short walk away.

If you are looking for a really nice dinner, this is definitely where you want to go. We love to celebrate special occasions here. The food is always amazing. Opening in 2001, it's one of East Nashville's longest residence and had much to do with the revitalization of the neighborhood.

My Favorite Bars

Here are my favorite bars within walking distance, or a short car ride away...
This spot might not look like much from the outside, but you will be blown away by their cocktails. They don't provide a menu to let their bartenders cater your drink specifically to your tastes. Be warned, they don't have vodka....but you won't miss it. It's a little longer walk, or a very short car ride.

I love heading over to the Pearl Diver for some really fun and unique drinks. They somehow found a way to make a Tiki bar not cheesy. You will need to drive, ride share, scooter, or bike there.

This is your brunch spot to fight off a hangover. They offer a Mexican inspired brunch with a very casual atmosphere. Plus if you are hungover, you are only going to be walking about 2 blocks to get there.

While this amazing brunch spot is a little longer walk (or a short ride), it is worth it! If you want a BIG breakfast, this place it for you. Be warned, it can get very crowded, so try to get there early.

Not really within walking distance, but if you need to grab a delicious biscuit sandwich on your way to explore the town, this is the SPOT! Owned by the same management team as Sky Blue but a fraction of the wait. I'm not sure you will find a better biscuit in town.

My Favorite things to do

These are a few of my favorite things to do around town...
Check out the website to see what exhibit is showing, or just go check out the building. It is a gorgeous art deco converted post office built in 1934. My favorite building in Nashville. There is an architecture tour almost every Saturday at 4:30pm.
