The Best Restaurants In East Nashville
Fact: East Nashville is home to the highest concentration of Nashville’s best restaurants.
Golden Pony
The back patio of Golden Pony, a LGBTQ+ friendly bar across from Kisser, is small but mighty, and really comes alive on Friday and Saturday nights.
Urban Cowboy Public House
Unlike most hotels, Urban Cowboy has a huge local following. Their giant Public House patio is where you go to see and be seen in East Nashville.
The Filling Station
The Filling Station’s 16-seat patio is removed from the chaos of 12 South’s celebrity-owned pillow stores and luxury retailers.
Streetcar Taps & Garden
Thanks to the giant tent, fans, and heaters in the back of Streetcar Taps & Garden, it’s one of the only places in town where an entire family can comfortably drink (and eat) outside year-round.
Corsair Distillery & Taproom
Nashville’s most under-the-radar outdoor space is Corsair Distillery & Taproom’s secluded courtyard in Marathon Village.
Lipstick Lounge
Lipstick Lounge is a bona fide LGBTQ+ icon in East Nashville, with the friendliest staff in town and lots of people rocking body glitter and feather boas.
No Quarter
Next door to Hubba Hubba Tiki Tonk, No Quarter is a nondescript bar that’s the perfect spot to grab a beer and learn how to actually play pinball.
