What's not to like? Seriously. You're surrounded by opulence everywhere you turn. There's a ridiculous amount of free-flowing booze. You have room to get away from the crowds and take a minute to breathe. You have access to the Preds. There's a never-ending supply of food... how can you not stan? The first time I experienced the Lexus Lounge was for a concert. I walked down the stairs from Bridgestone's main floor and... what's this? A car? A Lexus? Nice. Wait. There's another one? And, another one! Before too long, I was doing my best Tawny Kitaen impression -- and that was before I discovered the bar. BarS. There's the main bar, flanked by ginormous TVs which play all the live action from the stadium floor, as well as the highlights from other big events going on that evening. If you can't muscle up to that bar, turn on your heel and check out the smaller square bar on the other side of the space. I have never waited long for a drink and always had excellent service. The staff members at the LL go out of their way to make you feel at home and like a VIP. As Nashville grows, good service has been one of its many casualties. Not so here. Can we talk about the food? There's a ton of it and most is pretty fantastic. From in-house dining to catered events, I've been fortunate enough to go from savory to sweet and leave with a massive food belly every single time. Every.single.time. Folks, there are dedicated dessert, pizza, carving station, salad bars and other food BARS. You don't have to chose. You can eat all the food. You were here for a concert? A game? Psht. Watch it from the lounge and never stop eating and drinking. You can do that. The Lounge, 'natch, has direct access from the floor so you can go back and forth as you please. You might (will) annoy your neighbors with all the up and down but if that's a hill you're willing to fight on, do it.* With plenty of seating (some very plush) you might forget the why of what brought you to the Arena. Oh, and did I mention that the bar, typically, stays open past the show/game? No need to spill out to Broadway when you can pound 'em back in luxe air-conditioned (or, heated) splendor. The Lexus Lounge *will* spoil you. It's a mark of a first-class venue to have a space like this. Nissan... ball's in your court. *We don't do death in good reviews. read more

Exclusive, premium club on the event level offering upscale amenities for concerts and Nashville Predators games but this is far from the truth so let me explain. I try this " Experience a few times" wanting to get better but I was wrong and disappointed. Plastic, plastic and more plastic ... everything is plastic, to me plastic is not premium nor upscale, If you're weighing whether the Lexus Lounge at Bridgestone Arena is worth the price of admission, the honest answer is: it depends on how you use it. The Atmosphere Perhaps the lounge's greatest asset is the simplest one -- it gets you away from the chaos. Bridgestone Arena can feel overwhelming before a big show, and the Lexus Lounge offers a genuine reprieve from the crowds, the concourse noise, and the long concession lines. If you value a calmer pre-show experience, that alone carries significant appeal. However, keep in mind, even the Lexus Lounge can get busy at times, and you may find yourself waiting for a seat to open up on a busy night. The Value Proposition Cost-wise, the Lexus Lounge lands in roughly neutral territory when compared to purchasing food and drinks individually throughout the arena -- but only if you lean into everything being offered. If you're planning alcoholic drinks and a full meal including starter, app, salad, entree, dessert, or want snacks consistently throughout the evening (think multiple non-alcoholic drinks, popcorn, candy, pretzels), you'll likely come out close to even. Light eaters or one-drink attendees, however, may find the math less favorable. The Food The buffet covers the expected bases well enough. You'll find red meats, chicken, and salmon alongside comfort staples like mashed potatoes and pasta, and some solid vegetable sides. Vegetarian guests will have a hot option in addition to a salad. The standout, somewhat unexpectedly, is the salad and charcuterie bar. Overall, food quality ranges from fair to good. It won't rival a Nashville restaurant, but it's a reasonable spread for the setting. sadly flavors are not that good. The Experience The staff keeps the place tidy, and food items refreshed. This is a buffet environment, and the experience reflects that. Food is self-served, and guests are responsible for clearing their own space. One detail that does feel slightly at odds with the premium positioning: for the price point, simple paper plates, plastic utensils, and paper napkins are a noticeable downgrade that may catch some guests off guard and be offensive to those conscious of reducing waste going to the landfill. One Important Caveat Worth knowing before you commit: the Lexus Lounge is a pre-show destination, not a show-watching one. There are no sightlines to the arena floor and no video monitors to follow the performance. When the show starts, you'll need to head to your seats. Plan accordingly, and don't linger too long over dessert. The service is HORRIBLE ..... The Bottom Line The Lexus Lounge is a solid choice for those who prioritize comfort and crowd avoidance over bells and whistles. Go in with realistic expectations -- this is a high-volume buffet, not a fine dining experience -- on par with an off the Strip Las Vegas Casino Buffet. Come for the escape, stay for the charcuterie, and make sure you budget your appetite to get full value from the price of entry. once again the service is not existent ... cold and careless. again my biggest problem is the plastic for everything. read more

Nice addition to special concert tickets. Open bar but limited in drink making supplies like specialty liquors such as Chamborge or St Germane, excuse the spelling. Everyone is friendly and efficient, many many food selections. Some food absolutely delicious while some just okay. You are certain to find something you will enjoy. Plenty of tables for seating. read more

The food and drink service was so good and plenty of variety! We were so happy to have the opportunity to experience it!

Definitely not as good as it used to be. Must have had some kind of manager change/issue. The quality of the food has gone down, they seem to have new people in the bar each game/concert which really makes things go slower and of course it sets a different tone for you as a season ticket holder to not get that consistency and also the vibe of everyone being part of the Preds "family" is not the same. Too bad. The only thing nice this season is new wallpaper at the bathroom entrance. read more

What an amazing atmosphere! Large diverse variety of great food, spacious bar with a wide variety for beer and cocktails, clean restrooms with no lines and you can watch the players walk out of the locker room before each period. All the staff was friendly. It costs a pretty penny to gain access, but it's worth it!! Great job Nashville Predators and Lexus! Truly a class act venue! read more

Holy moly. If we hadn't been going to PBR, we would have never known about this place. We added this onto our ticket when we purchased them not knowing what to expect. Very hard to find even when asking directions but once you get there, there's great food, really great aesthetics, awesome buffet and is calm and serene. If you have the opportunity add this onto your venue event. read more

Well that was wonderful! Last night I was able to hang in the Lexus Lounge at the Dead and Co concert. We met with a Bridgestone representative and it's actually not too expensive. Obviously it depends on the show, but it's absolutely worth looking into before you buy tickets. So the lounge is below the lower bowl, by the locker room. The vibe is upscale sports bar/man cave. (Women are totally welcome! Opponents team gear is not.) They have a 61 foot TV and two bars. One is longer than the 61' TV and the other is a large square bar. They also have 5 buffet stations. There is a salad station, Italian station with grilled cheese, entree station, stadium food station, dessert station, and at the end they bring out snacks like popcorn, trail mix, and cheese puffs. Oh, I guess I forgot to mention that if you buy a Lexus Lounge ticket you get all of this no charge! Yes, that is correct, it is all you can eat and drink. You, of course, also get a seat for the show. If that's not enough, there is also a suite you can rent off of the Lexus Lounge. Next time you are looking at concert tickets give a representative a call and check out the Lexus Lounge tickets. It's that easy! If you want to hit the Lexus Lounge for a Preds game you need a certain type of season ticket. You can call and inquire about that as well, but it's definitely more pricey. read more

At the Barry Manilow concert, the Lexus Lounge was advertised as an upscale buffet. It was far from upscale. Nit that it was terribly bad, just not what we were expecting from the advertisements description. The ad also spoke of a 90 foot television screen the would play the concert if you were to come to the lounge, you could eat, drink, and still watch the concert. Well, that television was not in operation. Yes, they had big screen televisions all over the place, but I was told the concert would not be playing on those. Unless you are disabled you have to find stairs to get from one floor to another. All elevators but one were out of order. Rightfully so they were using that one for handicap folks. We do not drink alcoholic beverage. So that part was no benefit to us. Overall, we were extremely disappointed in the Lexus Lounge experience. read more

Fun and convenient, the food was great and it was nice to be able to escape the crowds and have something to eat or drink when you need it. Definitely appreciate not having to find food outside the arena or fight the lines for the other food vendors. Worth it. read more

Went to a Kid Rock concert and decided to try the Lexus Lounge for 2 couples. Food quality was decent, but the choices were unlimited. The value was more than a bargain. Unlimited beer, wine, liquor was well worth the price of a ticket. The lounge was open during the show, and, shortly thereafter for those wanting to hang around a little longer for the crowd to lessen. I would buy tickets again to the Lexus Lounge when attending an event at Bridgestone Arena. read more

I experienced Lexus Lounge last night for the very first time and I can't believe I haven't heard of this place! What is the Lexus Lounge? Lexus Lounge is located in the basement of the Bridgestone Arena. You can purchase your concert tickets with access to Lexus Lounge where you get unlimited access to food and alcohol drinks. You heard me! UNLIMITED access to food and drinks! They have so many food stations around the place. They have so many different type of foods like pizza, pasta, raviolli, grilled cheese, mashed potatoes and turkey, rice, chips, meat bar, cheese bar, coffee bar, dessert bar, and I mean the list goes on and on! They really have food offering for everybody! They also have two main bars where you can order unlimited drinks! They offer drinks from wine to beer to cocktails! This is probably the best deal of this place because you know that drinks upstairs are expensive. Typically, it costs you $10 just for one beer. So think about it. It is so worth it! This is also where the artists and players typically come out to during their intermission and breaks so you might even have the opportunity to see them up close! Lexus Lounge Seats So- in addition to getting access to the Lexus Lounge, the Lexus seats at Bridgestone is on the main floor. The seats are made in leather and you pretty much have the best seats in the whole arena! What else comes with it? Oh you know- your OWN waiter! So if you don't feel like walking back to the Lexus Lounge to get a cocktail, you can just kindly ask him/her and they will get it for you. I highly recommend this especially if you're planning on eating and drinking at Bridgestone anyway! The seats are also amazing so it is such a good deal! You can purchase your tickets by calling their office! read more

I'll never go to an event without this pass again! Well worth the $$I just really can't put into words how great this ad on is.

Went to the Preds vs. Avalanche game on 4/14. Great food & beverage. Courteous and attentive staff. Trey, at the host stand was outstanding!

Went down for Dead and Company with John Mayer playing with the addition of the Lexus Lounge. What is Lexus Lounge ? Lexus Lounge is something fairly new which is a basically an add on to your ticket for an event with an extra $40 to 150$ depending on the show and you are given a VIP access to the concert area which includes unlimited food buffet, drinks and pop corn :). If you are here for the games then you have VIP access right next to the locker but keep in mind to read the rules only home team folks are allowed near by.;) Buffet - 5 different food stations await you. Italian - From grilled cheese to pasta to pizzas and more. Entree - Toasted bread, seafood soup, ox tail, roast ham , hot dogs and more Salad - Cheeses, fruits, greens and deli meat. Desert - cool cup cakes from loaded to light ones. Snack Bar - pop corn, nuts ,trail mix and more. Drinks - U N L I M I T E D Free Lexus lounge is an experience which is a must and due to the affordable prices it more than pays for it self, you have your private restrooms and not have to wait for long lines for drinks either. You have great big bars and the main bar has 3 6 ft tvs showing you the entire event if allowed by the performers or if the Preds are playing you will not even have to go in to watch. It is basically the Dallas Cowboys Big tron in a smaller version. Going in and out to the concert area is a breeze as the lounge is right there. Seating - the lounge does offer some great seats if interested in different areas which are quite close it self and awesome view more like a behind the scenes view of the concert. The suite has awesome LEATHER seats exactly the ones like in the car and would be annoying sitting in something normal now :P We met Dan the sales executive who was very hospitable and made sure everyone was comfy enough and if there is anything else he could do to make our time better, he did more than his fare share. read more

As always Lexus lounge is by far awesome. Makes any event that much more worth it here at Bridgestone. Depending on the venue that is playing plays a huge part in what they serve as far as food... even alcohol. For the most part it's been great. Good food selections and decent beer selections that are included., read more

So...full disclosure: I don't have season tickets. I'm not a VIP. However, I do know someone on staff who let us into Lexus Lounge to experience the good life at Bridgestone Arena! It's a cool spot to grab a few drinks/eat a bite at the game. Bit crowded, but a fun atmosphere! And it was super cool to watch the players walk back to the ice for the second period! read more

Lexus Lounge - Give the Preds a high five as they had back onto the ice! - Lounges Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Attended the Eagles concert 3/24/18 with an add on of $125 each to the Lexus Lounge. Spacious seating in an intimate setting. Even at full capacity, it did not feel crowded at all. Plenty of "gourmet" food in various sections (salads, tapas, cheeses, meats hot and cold, pizza, pasta, fruits, deserts, cookies...) You won't leave hungry! Never a wait for a drink at the many bars. Waitstaff friendly and very attentive. All you can eat & drink. For anyone attending an event, this is the perfect pre-show venue. It allows you to secure parking in the area early enough to have a chance to eat, drink and relax before show time with private restrooms without waiting before during and after. The only suggestion would be to purchase pre-paid parking with your ticket if you're not Uber-ing it as parking downtown is at a premium especially before an event. Highly recommended! read more

Who knew this place existed?!?!? Another reason to Yelp!! Any event the Bridgestone Arena has, will have a benefit to purchase admission to the Lexus Lounge. Totally worth the price. Call the office. Price will be between 40 - 150 dollars per event. Also season tickets to Predators get access to this area. Who knew!!! Amazing price for what you get. If you experience it once, you will realize it is worth it. I don't go to as many concerts as I used to before baby, so this is so worth. Dont' need to go to dinner before, and then pay for drinks when you get there. All there at once. Lexus Lounge. Nice, Wood and glossy and seats everywhere to co mingle. We ate before we went to concert. Tons of selections, Honestly, I was so excited I forgot to take pics. Let's see, Pizza, Pastas, a few different kinds, desserts, pulled pork sandwiches, hot dogs, fruits and veges. There were 5 tables in all. I don't think I ate from all, I was too excited. Sorry. What I ate was GREAT! Really all the food was good. Would definitely pay for the extra to come back for ANY event. Drinks were free and readily available. I drink white wine. ONLY. Tip your server and they give you the LARGE CUP. What a kick It was a concert and when I went back and forth to the lounge and the concert. It was easy and fun and seem less. Every single person I met at the Arena was nice and helpful. EVERYONE. Class act Lexus and Arena employees read more

After enjoying the Lexus Lounge experience for the Dead and Company concert it's going to be hard to sit in any other seat at Bridgestone Arena! If you're looking into concert tickets and are willing to fork over the cash for floor seats you definitely need to look into tickets for the Lexus Lounge. On top of a great view of the concert you'll be bombarded with tons of amazing food and drinks served by and incredible friendly staff! In my opinion there's no other way to enjoy Bridgestone! read more

It may not be ur fault but I was told I had Lexus lounge access for the Tennessee Auburn game since I sat in the front row at the game but came down to the Lexus lounge and a very unfriendly old lady who looked like she didn't work for Bridgestone arena and told us we had to leave and we told her we had access but wouldn't answer our questions she looked like she was with SEC maybe and was pretty rude to us... read more

The food is TERRIBLE!!! The "manager" (i believe her name is Whitt or Whitney) is even worse. I've never paid so much for something to be treated so poorly. She doesn't handle situations very well, I watched her once I was offended by her and it only got worse. read more

Be aware that even if the bar's last call is advertised as 30 minutes after end of show or a definitive time it is not guaranteed. Several times last call has been before the performance ended and at least 20 minutes prior to publish "last call". Zach Preston, Club Service Coordinator will have service terminated at his whim. read more

The way to go! Food, drinks, atmosphere! Best value for a show!
