What a find! Great bar. Good beer. Really lovely bartenders. Good range of free games, including Toad in The Hole which we were very happily surprised to see here. Felt like a really great place to just hangout. Had a burger from the food truck out back and it was decent. Recommend a visit.

Amazing bar, such great beer and deals!! Tristan took such good care of us. Also, the burger and fries from the trailer outside was incredible. Do not miss this place!!

I love this bar it great atmosphere and games but, I’m 40 and got carded 3x.. asked for a lager and was told they don’t have any… so then i defaulted to gin and its “infused with glitter” + soda, and here we are.. its not normal bombay sapphire gin..

Retro, throwback, tavern-style, dive-y bar in the basement of up-down Nashville. Despite being closer to lakeside lounge and up-down (which were packed already), this place was so packed, there was hardly any room to stand. I did like their “coffee-drink”, and even love the fact that they didn’t call it “frozen espresso martini” There’re two pool tables but they’re mostly taken and weren’t being challenged as much as lakeside lounge pool tables get. There were some other games too and some people at the back were even playing a board game in that crowd. They do have a small seating area for people who’re eating. Similar to lakeside lounge, you pick up your order at a station that’s different from the one you order at. Vibe is pretty casual. Of course no parking or validation is offered (common for that area).

Best place I have ever been in my life and best burger. Austin was the light in the dark in my life and made it worth living the rest of my life after just one visit.

generally love this place, but the printed menu lists a small option of the cheese curds and it’s not listed on the online toast ordering menu tried to troubleshoot it with the person running the food truck and even made eye contact and he wouldn’t give me the time of day — makes me not want to order food at all

Loved the vibe and drink options - great prices! Bar staff was awful - sat at the bar and they weren’t attentive, billed us incorrectly, lost someone’s I.D. and didn’t seem remorseful or want to help them, and everyone was vaping excessively behind the bar.. just made it a not enjoyable experience, but everything else was great.

Staff is hot. Drinks are the cheapest drinks in Nashville. Vibes are immaculate. Liv, Shilo and Tristian are like no other. I will be back!

What a great find! Love the throwback college ambiance. Service is friendly and fast. We enjoyed the casual fun feeling we all experienced. It has been added to favorite bars. I just added this bar to Yelp. Wish them great success!!

Classic dive bar vibes with pool tables, darts, and a game called Toad in the Hole. Has a variety of local beers and classic light beers.
