"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. Someone is usually singing “The Wizard and I” and “Pink Pony Club” on the karaoke stage, and there’s a chance a celebrity might make an appearance. (We once saw Laura Prepon crush a Weezer song.) While you’re waiting for your turn, order a round of white tea shots and some fried mozzarella sticks. And when you’re ready to slow things down for the night, sneak upstairs to their cigar lounge called the Upper Lip, where a Cohiba and whiskey make for a great nightcap." - adam sloan
