I was invited to go see Krazy Kyle (Predators) playing. He was our worship leader a few years back and it sounded like a fun night (if you have never seen him play in this type of venue, he was a quick wit and is willing to play anything he can find information on).
Sid's is a small chain (New York, Detroit, and Nashville) in a small strip in Nashville next to a drum store next door (who apparently will tow if you use their spaces, even after hours). There is not a huge amount of parking up front, but there is plenty in the back, which is accessible on the north side of the front parking lot. It looks like a small dive bar. (as another note, easy to find with Google, but if you just drive north on Gallatin, it is just before the bridge (if you go under, you went too far)).
Sid's is very small. When you enter, there is a bar area up front and then the request room in the back. There are 9 or 10 tables total. They have a list of their own cocktails, and different appetizers. Food an drinks are at a price point similar to a speakeasy. The food is fairly standard bar food, with a couple of guilty pleasure items (pigs in a blanket anyone?).
The set up is interesting. The piano is in the middle of a bar, most of which is not used during COVID. There is current a single 2 top at the end of the piano (empty last night) and tables around the periphery of the room (spaced properly for social distancing). You text in your requests and the menu is online (at least for now).
