Urban Cowboy Public House

Unexpected, great find in the middle of Lockeland Springs. Beautifully decorated interior with a southwest vibe. Wine Bar, pizza, and live jazz make this a chill hang or hotel stay.

Visited briefly for a glass of wine and relaxation. I was very impressed by the atmosphere and live music. There looked to be plenty of seating options inside that matched the unique antique feel this place offers. The lighting and music was a perfect combination without being too loud or overbearing. An easy going place with great vibes. Didn't order the pizza, but it looked amazing. Definitely visiting again for the pizza and cocktails.

I’d been wanting to go to this place for years, and we finally went last night. The vibe is so unique and chill. The space is absolutely beautiful. Loved the big outside area—seating on the porch or behind the house. 4/5 because the drinks just didn’t live up to the hype for me. We were also bummed the inside bar closed early at like 10pm. That said, I’m glad I went to check it out. If I lived in Nashville, I would likely return.

This place is mood. It’s my greatest find of the month. Go there at night, it just lights up and transforms the whole place making it 1000 times better than day-time. Cocktails are great. The garden seating area is my favorite, you can choose from so many nooks and corners in the garden. It feels private at the same time communal. Lighting is so warm and welcoming and cozy. There’s a fire place there. I didn’t get to try food but definitely planning on doing that on my next visit. Love love love. It’s on my list to take my out of town friends at.

The vibes here are immaculate. Came for drinks around sunset and had some amazing cocktails by the fire. Highly recommend!

When my friend told me that we were going to the Urban Cowboy, my mind was imagining something like a Honky Tonk bar. Wow! I was wrong. This place was an Inn of Wonders! I absolutely Love the interior. There's also a bar that closes earlier inside than the outside bar, so be mindful. It was giving midwestern apothecary for the decor. Around back you'll find the outdoor seating that makes for a perfect space to sit and listen to the band, have a catch up session with your friends or do both. Now, let's get into this back bar & pizzeria. How neat! They closed at 11p I believe. I didn't get a chance to order pizza I was too busy indulging in Sunday Shifters (drink) but the next time I visit please believe I will and I'll have something to add!

Great vibes all around here. The lines can be long for drinks but the bartenders are nice and do a great job. We loved the drink menu and overall would definitely be coming back

What a great place to relax, have a drink and enjoy the day. Cocktails are great. We didn't try the Roberta pizza, but it smelled really good.Staff is friendly.

Excellent cocktails, generous bar tenders. Love the vibes, my wife and I always go here for a specialty cocktail off the grid!

The Urban Cowboy never fails to deliver an ambiance that's both lively and enjoyable, making each stay at this boutique hotel a distinct pleasure. The food, especially the offerings from Roberta's, consistently hits the mark with flavors that charm and satisfy. However, the cocktail experience at the Public House starkly contrasts the culinary delights. The bar, often staffed by surly young men, seems to miss the essence of basic cocktail crafting. The margaritas, which could easily be a crowd pleaser, are particularly disappointing. Served over a block of ice with subpar lime juice and unnecessary additives, they stray far from the beloved classic recipe. This leaves much to be desired. Moreover, the ordeal of obtaining a drink involves enduring long lines only to receive a cocktail that hardly justifies the wait or the cost. This aspect of the drink service is notably poorly managed and detracts significantly from the overall experience. While I'll gladly return for the exceptional pizza served here, the drink service at Public House urgently needs a reevaluation and improvement. For now, it's best to enjoy your meal and perhaps look elsewhere to quench your thirst.

Went here for a night cap. Didn't get to try the pizza but it smelled delicious. The drinks were a little pricey but very tasty, you could tell the staff puts in the work mixing the drinks. The ambiance was dark and country.

Insanely good vibes. Extensive and super unique cocktail and drink list. Amazing Smokey and essence scents. Attached Roberta's pizza. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating with fires and rocking chairs. Nice staff and quick service. Couldn't think of anything to make this place better. Highly recommend and will return whenever I can

No tajin, no salt. How can you call that a margarita? You can't. I can say that with confidence. No rim. No bueno.

10/10 pizza! 10/10 drinks! The pizza truck, bar and patio area is behind the Urban Cowboy hotel. Don't be fooled by the hotel, there's a whole vibe in the back! I'd definitely come back again either with friends or on a date... bartenders were friendly!

I can't say enough good things about this bar! the drinks are amazing and very strong so you get your moneys worth! Limited seating inside but a ton of spots outside. the food is amazing, pizza is a great and whatever this cheese dish is, also unbelievable! service is quick as well.

Great place for awesome cocktails and great vibes inside and out. The fires outside are awesome when it starts to get chilly. Roberta's pizza is also amazing and a must do while here.

Way over priced for a local place pizza was good but at tourist prices, the only bottle of red wine was $50.00 never again

Urban Cowboy is a very cool spot with good vibes, good drinks and a fabulous patio. They sell flatbread pizzas which are about standard. But the draw is the old mansion with the huge patio equipped with lots of intimate seating and fireplaces. I don't love the ordering situation which is why I took off a star. There's no table service so you have to order drinks from the bar, and every time I've been there, there's a long wait at the bar to get a drink. They will bring the pizza out to your table but everything else is up to you. Overall, love the ambiance and the cozy patio so that's what keeps me coming back.

This place really impressed me as it has one of the best outdoor patios and lots of outdoor seating and different sections. There were also some indoor seating as well. It's a cute and casual place. There's a section for food where they serve wood fire pizza, a full bar, and wine bar. You can get food, wine, or drinks, and sit anywhere. The pizza was delicious, thin crusted and light, cooked through wood fire. Bee Sting: My favorite of them all! The honey drizzle makes a huge difference in a positive way. It's light, but a subtle sweet addition to the pizza. Margherita: Great classic margherita pizza Famous Owned: The caiocavallo and chili (not spicy) made it stand out, We added pepperoni to it and that made it amazing! The pizza rolls seem underrated, but it was really good - very cheesy, great texture, and sauce. The cocktails were very flavorful and detailed. I got the Mama-Rita, which was a good margarita.

Great atmosphere/vibe! Good pizza when hot, but tbh pretty overpriced... their romaine salad was just ok. Drinks are solid but they only have 2 people working the bar at a time and it takes FOREVER. Literally takes so long... Please hire more employees lol.

Love this spot! Very cool ambiance with a tasty drink selection and amazing pizza. I bring all my out of town friends here.

A posh bar with a beautiful courtyard area and a pizza food truck. I didn't realize that Urban Cowboy was a chain with locations in the Catskills and Brooklyn. For me, it deflated the "bougey Nashville neighborhood bar" feeling and it made me feel salty about paying $14 for an average cocktail. The hotty toddy was perfect for a cold night, though! The staff were very nice and made sure that the outdoor fires were well-fed throughout the night. The blankets were a massively cosy touch. However, that bar line was LONG. It was a minimum of 3 parties-deep all night long... and this was a Thursday. If you're looking at the bar line right now, don't wait for it to die down. Just hop in line! ;)

This is a super fun place for drinks with friends - cocktails are great, and it has some awesome outdoor seating with fire pits. Unfortunately, service is pretty slow even when they're not very busy, and when it is busy it's hard to get refills. I've been a couple of times and waited in line for over 20 minutes to get served, so it's a bit distracting from the evening when one of the party has to leave to get more drinks and they're gone for that long. If they staffed up I think it would be a great place for long, boozy evenings by the fire.

My first time visiting and I loved it! Fire pits, live music, lights, and the best old fashioned I've ever had in my life. Definitely stop here.

Great drink menu, hot bartenders (sorry not sorry) and a really cool patio with good tunes. Had one of my favorite cocktails ever here that had coconut milk and lemongrass in it. Unfortunately I can't find the menu or recall the name...but if you see it, order it! Definitely stop by if you're in this side of town.

Absolutely love the atmosphere and drinks. Cozy fireplaces in the fall/winter. Bartenders are excellent!

This is a bar attached to the Urban Cowboy hotel. It is extremely hipster (and I'm from Portland!) so just be forewarned. The place was packed, and the entire time I only saw one party with people over the age of 40. The atmosphere is definitely rustic/shabby. The majority of the seating is outdoors, underneath a large covering that blocks the sun at most of the tables. The seating is eclectic: some rocking chairs, some bar stools, some picnic tables, and some metal chairs. The drinks are supremely good. Each one was made with such care and was so well balanced. It's a bit strange to enjoy expensive craft cocktails of such a high caliber in what is essentially a makeshift backyard with shabby fortnights, but definitely makes it interesting. For such steep prices, and considering how long even short lines took, I really wish that they would have waitstaff as an alternative to waiting in line at the bar.

Great spot that is located only 5 blocks from the house so we love the fact we can walk to the location. The drinks were exceptional and service was great. It's a perfect place for locals and the people who work in the service industry. It's definitely hipster, but not so much you feel out of place. We did not eat there as we had dinner at the Lockland Table. We have been here a few times and the roaring fire is always tended and on point...

I had mixed feelings about this bar. It was posh, but pretentious. It was well decorated, with awful music (Goosebumps by Travis Scott? No thanks.). I was hopping to another bar after stopping here for a few hours, so I skipped out on a pricey drink. The bar line was to the bathrooms and it stayed that way the whole time we were there. The bartenders were working hard, but having only 2 for a popular bar seems like an interesting choice. My group ordered pizza so I got an app, pepperoni bites and STILL paid $15. Imagine my disdain when they come out and are TINY. Luckily, the taste overshadowed the tiny size, but $15 for these glorified pizza rolls was excessive.

What an interesting place! Left side, you enter and stand in line to order at the only bar. They have their "specialty" drinks which of course are expensive $14, but tasty. A regular rum and coke is still $9 and not exactly strong. Pretty sure the only 'menu' item is pizza, but it's stone oven cooked right there, NY style and really very good. They also have some salads, such as a small plate of cut up cucumbers for $11. Go thru the back 'patio' which is relatively quiet and uniquely laid out. You wind up at the lobby to the 'hotel' which has plush seating and a couple musicians were playing some far out jazz (?) electronic keyboard and soprano sax. So, kind of a cool place. Obviously for the hipsters who are pulling in a good salary.

Stopped in for a drink after work on a Saturday around 6pm. It was busy at the bar but service was quick. Fun atmosphere as we were able to sit outside. Will definitely be back!

It's got atmosphere. The drinks are pricey and meh. But if you like people watching, it's a gold mine for ridiculousness. Enjoy.

This is a fun environment for a Friday or Saturday night in East Nashville. I will say it gets rather loud, but not too rowdy. The pizza is cooked in a wood fire oven and is delicious. I also got the Caesar salad, and it was probably one of the best I've ever had. The crouton crumbs and shaved Parmesan are a shwae addition to the salad. Their cocktails are really tasty as well. Not to mention, they also have a wine bar in the back that is part of the hotel. The only downside is that it is pretty pricey...

Wow this has been on my list of "Nashville musts" for too long! Finally, got to taste the delicious Roberta's pizza and enjoy the outdoor patio. Don't sleep on any of the tasty pies. Lil Stinker and White Guy were some of my groups favs. This is very much a casual dining/bar experience. The staff could have been friendlier, but hey, maybe they aren't locals. Wouldn't stop me from returning to try again. Enjoy friends!

Stopped in on Sunday afternoon while staying in east Nashville. Really cool building and design set up. Crafty cocktail bar and decent pizzas

Love this place... the drinks were lovely, the atmosphere was chill and relaxed. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and now plan to stay in the b&b next time we are in Nashville

Great atmosphere, good brick oven pizza and drinks. Bartenders really know how to make a yummy drinks, a little on the small side, but very good. The backyard deck vibe is great.

1st visit and definitely will go back! Great outdoor patio, good pizza, cocktails and I enjoyed trying a new wine at the wine bar! Really something for everyone! Cool mix of spaces in one location.

This was an interesting spot in East Nashville! This place is in the middle of a residential neighborhood and also doubles as a hotel. They have indoor seating and tables next to the bar, shaded outside seating, and seating in the backyard patio. My first drink was the averna smash ($13) which was good and refreshing with the lemon and mint. My second drink was the Paloma Rosa ($13) which had big tequila flavor. They were both great drinks for a hot summer Nashville afternoon. I really liked chilling outside and having the sun hit my face while I was sitting there and sipping on my drinks. I went by myself which was nice but this is also a great place to hang out with your friends and grab some pre-dinner drinks.

This place is perfect when you just want to drink and relax. The outdoor patio is adorable. Lots of seating, good music and cute firefly lights. It is perfect for the summer once the sun goes down because during the day it's too hot. Bartenders were great, the only thing is the line for a drink was about 10 mins but I think they were extra busy when I went. I would definitely go back!

Service is horrible,,,, still waiting on that drink. Ambiance has the making of a great little bar.

Two stars because I loved the decor. Drinks were not strong, especially for the price. The bar line will never go down, and people don't care if you're waiting. They pretend not to see you and jump on ahead. The pizza, very limited but honestly the best thing about this place. Definitely an overpriced hipster spot. Wanted to check it out but I'm glad I did, now I know I won't be going back unless I take pizza to go.

Stopped in and super enjoyed myself. Cute place. Bartender was nice and made an awesome drink. Outside was cozy with blankets and fire and lights. Can't go wrong.

This is one of our favorite spots in Nashville. The cocktails were delicious and expertly made. The vibe is so cool and relaxed. We enjoyed the Roberto's pizza pop-up there for dinner. The pizza was incredible!! Definitely coming back here for a late night snack and night cap next time I'm in town.

Great drinks. Great atmosphere. Great Pizza Would definitely come back again whenever I'm East nashville.

Jazz night outside on a great patio and delicious pizza doesn't get much better! Our favorite spot in town.

After seeing the basicness of Broadway Street, Public House was the perfect oasis for me and my friends who prefer more trendy than touristy spaces. Not only was this place right by our Air BnB, but it came with a celebrity sighting of Connie Britton on a Saturday afternoon, huge plus. Service & atmosphere: the outdoor place was adorable with globe lights, fire pits, and fireplaces. The service was attentive and friendly, and definitely made that much better when one of the servers added eucalyptus to our fire pit. Drinks: I got the blue collar and two of my friends got the gimlet. The blue collar was well balanced while still spirit forward. The gimlet was very refreshing and perfect for sitting in the sun. We will definitely be back even though we're only here for three days to smell the woody smoke, drink their amazing cocktails, and pretend that we too are Nashville's hipster elite.

So I honestly cannot say enough good things about the Public House in East Nashville. The outdoor patio with fireplaces and bonfire is absolutely perfect. Bundle up with a hot toddy and blanket. Relaxing and cool vibe...the cocktails were amazing! The service was very friendly but the bar can get very busy so I would definitely recommend bringing cash so you don't have to wait in line to close out your tab! Outdoor area is dog friendly but please be aware that there are a lot of smokers (gross)!!! I would love to try the intimate parlor bar inside the B&B...the Queen Anne Victorian looks stunning from the outside and I think it would be a very romantic staycation! The food selection was very limited so we went to 5 Points for pizza. I honestly could have just spent the entire night there relaxing by the fire. This is a great spot for girls night out, romantic date night, or a group bar brawl kind of night! *Bathroom lock on the women's bathroom needs to be repaired so be extra careful with the latch.

What is there to say but giddy... up. Incredible vibes at Urban Cowboy. Throw on jeans boots and a bomber and sit by the fire pit outside. One of the best back patio/garden options in Nashville. Great cocktails. Bartenders really put on a show (make it seem like they're really going above and beyond to make your drink) but honestly, worth it - they're delicious! Easy to envy how cool they are. I'm a big advocate of also having a cheap beer option, which they do. Thank god. Very "everyone here thinks they're better than you" vibes but don't let that deter you! Go with your favorite group of friends or on a 3rd date (if you go on a 1st date, you might be unfairly woo'd by the surroundings, rather than your date). Do it do it do it!

Such a cute spot and off the beaten path. I'm not from Nashville so was asking around for cool, hip, local spots to have a cocktail and chill for pre-dinner drinks. Enter Urban Cowboy Public House, the singular answer to all my prayers. Located in East Nashville (what locals lovingly refer to as the 'Brooklyn' of TN) I knew right away from walking into the nondescript entry that this was exactly the spot I was looking for. (We came at night so there are barely any lights to signal the entrance) The bar is more of a restaurant/ cafe separated by 3 main dining/ seating areas. You order all drinks and food at the bar, sit wherever you like and the pub grub comes to you. There are only a handful of items available daily so be forewarned that there is no real "menu" here. What they're cooking is what you get. We ordered two old fashioned cocktails (hold the sugar) and was delighted to find out they serve theirs with a hit of cognac. Yaaaaaas honey gimme some of that sizzurp now we're talking! For bar bites, we ordered the bread/butter, plate of coppa, cheese/honey, and chicken rice soup (which hit the spot in this 50deg weather btw). The soup was so buttery and savory I just wished they had more items on the menu to taste-test the chef's skills. The perfect prefunk spot if you're headed to any of the amazing eateries in the neighborhood. There's a cozy dining area with fleece-wrapped banquettes in front of the bar, a cafeteria-style dining area in front of the kitchen that's a bit more casual, or you can head to the patio where there's a round fire pit AND an additional full on fireplace in the rear. Lots of options to chill with your buddies and very romantic if it's just date night. We're headed to Lockeland Table directly diagonal from Urban Cowboy so bonus points for being situated in a cool neighborhood. Definitely a must visit if you're coming to Nashville!

Stopped going in after I asked to sit at the bar and they tried to tell me they "don't let people sit at the bar"...and then sat a bachelorette party there. That's a funny excuse to get me to leave. This business is quietly trying to push working class locals out and cater to 1% tourists. I have plenty of other options.

Yes! Yes! Yesss! What's not to love about a cozy backyard happy hour, sipping amazing cocktails and noshing on exquisite food!? The setup at Urban Cowboy is PERFECT - walk in, grab a menu scattered about the tables, pick your poison and order at the impeccably stocked and expertly staffed bar. We had two wonderful cocktails and a couple fabulous small plates. The cocktails I selected weren't overly boozy, which is nice. I love that mixologists are embracing the art of light, refreshing cocktails these days - such a win for a hot summer night. The two appetizers we ordered were the beef tartare and the tomato oil w/smoked bread. Man, they were amazing. Both were on the petite size, so don't view it as a meal, rather a snack. The smoked bread had just the right amount of salt and oil, which soaked up a flavorful slick of tomato chunks swimming in olive oil. The tartare was so tasty, enhanced by lemon zest, which really brightened it! We spoke w a manager who told us that the place used to be a wrestling dojo. (Say, what!?) Yep, these geniuses knee to reaurect an old wrestling hangout and turn it into a funky, chill scene, complete with retro furniture, fireplaces and pretty plants. My only complaint about Urban Cowboy!? I wish it was closer to my house - wahhhh! I'd love toake it my nightly hangout.

Great find in Nashville. Don't miss this fun eclectic bar. We loved the hot toddy and atmosphere

The patio is super cool. Drinks and pizza were good. But the staff left little to be desired. No welcomes, no table service, no service period. Staff were unwelcoming and cold. It seemed like a bunch of adults acting like antisocial, awkward teenagers who are playing the role of how to be a cool kid vs. running a place that people want to return. There are much better places in the neighborhood.

This is located on the side of the urban cowboy bnb in a semi residential area of east nashville. There's inside seating and an outside patio with fire pits and comfy seating. You order at the bar where they're busy making delicious cocktails. We opted for beers, and ordered their cowboy charcuterie (rolls and cured ham with mustard and pickles). Not sure I would get the charcuterie again, as it was kind of small but I did love the ambiance here and the service was great.

Recommend recommend recommend. Super cute spot!! Visited Nashville during the week for my birthday and stumbled upon this place. The patio is so cute & the playlist was on point. Drink selection was really really great. I had the twenty grand, which was their take on a spicy marg. SO good. Nothing too sweet, but tons of flavor. Will be back!!

We LOVED this place, we went here with local friends after dinner for a drink outside. Wow, it was beautiful, the drink were great. They had outside fire pits that we loved. We got hot toddys (yummmm) and sat out back by the fire pit and just relaxed. It was gorgeous weather too which helped. We will for sure recommend this place and make our way back next time we get into town.
