"Here’s how we’ve described Coral Club to all our friends: Pirates of the Caribbean but with a shower, money, and more booze besides rum. This second-floor East Nashville hangout has candle wax art melted into the wall, booths carved into large sand dune-like structures, and bartenders with Jack Sparrow’s level of cheek. All that to say, The Coral Club is one of the hottest places to drink in Nashville. Bartenders proudly say things like “that drink f*cks” while handing you a Negroni riff with the addition of sherry, hip young professionals sip non-alcoholic Campari soda tastealikes, and, oh look, there’s Kacey Musgraves. By 9pm, the lights will dim so far you won’t be able to see to find the bathroom, but that’s just part of the fun." - ann walczak
