"The name Mother’s Ruin is a nod to a mid-18th-century nickname for gin, but the Nashville location of this New York-based bar pours much more than gin and serves killer snacks until late-night, too. Standouts on the cheeky cocktail menu include pickleback shots for $8 and a frozen slushy made with rum, lychee, orange, lime, and ginger. But the food menu is a sleeper hit — be sure to order the Old Bay-seasoned waffle fries, the Cholulo honey wings, and the Mother’s double cheeseburger. Brunch is also available seven days a week until 4 p.m." - Kellie Walton, Jackie Gutierrez-Jones
