The 17 Best Bars In Nashville 2024

"Don't expect the usual tiki environment at Chopper—they have a robot-themed aesthetic and a passion for fandoms (Star Wars characters make appearances in the barware). Their “lab tested” concoctions—yes, the bar has its own lore—feature their takes on classics like mai tais and rum runners, but they also have a more creative rotating seasonal menu. Our advice? If you see anything with coffee in it, order it, because they always do interesting fruity/malty combos. And if that Robo Zombie drink takes you to the moon, get your feet back on the ground with some tacos from the Maiz de La Vida food truck that's usually out front. " - bailey freeman, ann walczak
