The Gerst Haus, One of Nashville’s Oldest Restaurants, Will Close Next Week | Eater Nashville

"After 62 years in business, the German restaurant and bar at 301 Woodland St. will close its doors later this month; The Tennessean confirmed with restaurant reps that next Saturday will be its last day of service, though an exact reason for the closure is not currently known. First opened in 1955 by the Gerst family, the restaurant was relocated from its original spot to Woodland St. in 1970; current owners Jim and Jerry Chandler purchased the restaurant in 1988 and had to move it again to its current Woodland location to make way for the construction of the city’s new professional football stadium." - Matt Rogers
