14 Best Nashville Bars | Condé Nast Traveler

"With swings hanging from the ceiling and plants (and fake plants) “growing” from the rafters, Walden looks like a patio or a garden, but it's a neighborhood bar through and through. There are paintings of flowers on the walls, cozy booths, and a large bar with tons of seating. The cocktails are made with spirits that will look familiar to cocktail nerds: Hangar 1 Vodka, Monkey Shoulder Scotch, Bahnez Mezcal. Everything is purposeful and carefully considered, but not at all pretentious." - Margaret Littman

New Chef at East Nashville’s Walden - Eater Nashville

"Executive chef Rahaf Amer will spearhead the culinary offerings at East Hill Row’s casual neighborhood bar Walden, which opened in March. Amer arrives from Salt & Vine, which closed abruptly earlier this month. She had been their executive chef since January, when she was promoted from sous chef. Amer, the daughter of two Syrian immigrants, recently curated a five-course meal at Nashville’s Food From Inside the Travel Ban event. Walden will soon feature an expanded menu from Amer to include a broader variety of small plates. The limited current menu offers hummus, salad, tacos, sandwiches, and pizzas. The bar also serves a small brunch selection from noon to 6 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday." - Delia Jo Ramsey

Very chill spot, strong drinks, and beautiful murals. There is plenty of paid parking in the lot along the building and they do serve some snacks here if you're needing something light with your drinks. The menu changes, so the place doesn't get boring! If you're looking for a very chill, relaxed vibe, this is a great spot! The swings in the back are so cute to take a photo with a partner or friend.

You MUST visit this place during the Christmas season! It was transformed into a true winter wonderland. The seasonal cocktails were amazing. We loved it!!

Went there for happy hour on a Tuesday, Sam was our bartender, she was awesome, super helpful, very kind, drinks were great, they have a killer happy hour and the vibe is great. Not overly big, but quiet, chill, great playlist, super clean. They had just rolled out some new menu items like their flat bread pizzas and the Margherita pizza was great. Definitely recommend this place if you’re looking to talk over quality drinks and not cram yourself up to a bar fighting for attention, before happy hour closes at 5, because Walden happy hour goes till 7 and that’s bomb.

This bar was very festive for Christmas. The spiked eggnog was not as good as another place but still enjoyed ourselves.

a mysteriously quiet and surprisingly good spot I had yet to go to but will absolutely return to. outrageously inexpensive but delicious cocktail list, a decent selection of beer and wine, and actually good food. the brunch menu was great from top to bottom and reasonably priced. music was a bit loud but good tunes, good food, good drink, good prices. not sure why this place isn’t packed yet.

Such an awesome place to hang out. Friendly atmosphere, great drinks with funny names, they were very attentive to my friends wife who was pregnant and served alcohol free “mock tails”, excellent price, 10/10 would bring all my friends there for the after party after my wedding reception someday in the distant future. Would also feel comfortable going there solo and making new friends. This bar is my spirit animal

The bartenders were all incredibly nice & helpful. 10/10 would get the bagel bites again, they're delicious! Absolutely loved sitting on the swing in the back while drinking my bartender's recommended IPA. Great spot to grab a drink and catch up with friends.
