"This buzzy East Nashville spot serves smart plates like a koji-aged filet and gnocchi with duck ragu. The eclectic, colorful patio has plenty of seating and its own full bar for cocktails like the Dirty Chai-Anna with chai-infused bourbon, coffee, honey, and orange and walnut bitters.. Come for happy hour from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday." - Kellie Walton
"This East Nashville staple in the Five Points neighborhood offers happy hour Monday through Friday from 4 to 6 p.m. with $8 house cocktails, two-for-one beers, and $6 wine. If the weather’s playing nice, take your drinks to the Treehouse’s patio space out front." - Ellen Fort
"This casually cool East Nashville staple sits in a converted home with a big wooden patio perfect for gathering. The culinary options here are excellent, with shareable plates like burrata and whipped feta and deftly prepared mains like gnocchi with duck ragu, halibut cooked in brown butter, and crab-topped filet medallions. You can also count on the weekend brunch to deliver a wide range of palate-pleasing hits — the bananas foster French toast with rum-flambeed bananas and the double-smash brunch burger are perennial favorites. Visit for $8 classic cocktails during happy hour on weekdays from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m." - Kellie Walton
"This tried-and-true East Nashville cafe may be small, but what it lacks in space it makes up for in big flavors thanks to a menu that rotates seasonally and isn’t afraid to take some risks with traditional rustic fare. Case in point: burrata with spaghetti squash and golden raisins; seared grouper with massaman curry and kokuho rice; and a gluten-free chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwich rimmed with Lay’s potato chips. The eclectic, colorful patio has plenty of seating and its own full bar." - Jackie Gutierrez-Jones, Eater Staff
"Over in East Nashville, the Treehouse is channeling the Griswold holiday spectacle with its Christmas Vacation-themed pop-up. Decked out with more than 5000 lights, the restaurant is serving up eggnog in the film’s classic moose cups along with themed drinks like the Jelly of the Month Club with reposado, fig, honey, cinnamon, and fresh lemon. The pop-up runs through December 30th." - Jackie Gutierrez-Jones
