Spicy ham sliders
Coti H.

Finally got to Martha My Dear! The location is very unassuming but it's a great "upscale dive" where you can still get great cocktails. And Shelby was an amazing bartender but everyone we encountered was great! All of the cocktails were really good but the holiday special menu was our favorite with the Blitzen and Toymaker's Vacation topping the list. And don't sleep on the spicy ham sliders! An elevated bar snack that's the perfect treat while having a couple of drinks.

Tipsy jitters was like an offbrand espresso martini and was delish!

We LOVED this spot. There's a small lot and the drinks were all delish. The bartenders were also amazing! There were some pool tables as well which gave a little bit of activity for the boys. We will be back!!

The vibe was laid-back. the service was quick and professional. And the drinks were great. Only downside was it was pretty crowded but the bartenders were very fast.

Athletic brewing and their bar setup!

At first glance you'd think this was a dive bar. But I'd call it an elevated and clean dive bar with craft cocktails. Two of my favorite things combined into one. An old coworker of mine works here though he wasn't in tonight. Brendan and Alex were both great bartenders and gave me awesome recommendations for live music in the area. I had a blast thanks to them! Next time I'm in East Nashville I will definitely be back!

Girls night out & Shelby was here again to save the night for us! Ordered from their speciality Winter Menu (see pic) & if you're a bourbon lover go with Frostmaiden's Rime, if you're a citrusy or marg person go with I Don't KNOW Margo-rita. Friendliest crowd around! OMG, it's not on the menu but ask for their homemade Egg Nog, it's the best I have ever had in my life! We just sampled it with shots but coming back to get a full glass soon!

The best atmosphere and the best craft cocktails. Seasonal menu was a hit with great bartenders! Great place to stumble upon visiting from Iowa.

Great space

Really cool interior space and very friendly bartenders, especially Shay and Jason. This picture is early in a Saturday. Great neighborhood bar

Aperol spritz

Great happy hour spot! Bartenders were super friendly. Kind of a divey atmosphere but in a fun clean way. We came for happy hour on a Monday and it wasn't busy at all. We got some drinks off the cocktail menu but also had them make some other drinks which they were happy to do. I got the Besito which was super tasty and then I got an aperol Spritz. I would definitely be back! Only thing is they are very strict on happy hour, I ordered my second drink right before 7 but didn't end up getting the happy hour deal.

Atmosphere is great and great drinks!! Highly recommend this bar if you are in East Nashville looking for great service and cocktails.

Olives were smooth and tangy. Good service with a soft opening, very excited to see how the joint evolves!

My friends and I were on vacation in Nashville and this was my absolute must visit spot based on…read moreall the great reviews I had seen. Now if I had known about the new ownership and lack of availability of what I ASSUMED the cocktail menu would be, I might have reconsidered going but this review isn't about that... its all about the staff at Tiger Bar who were absolutely INCREDIBLE!!! What an amazing duo we encountered behind the bar! They did their absolute most to find us a drink we would enjoy and even saved my boyfriend from being attacked by bees outside. I'm sure there's changes people aren't too stoked about but the people who make these cocktails really do care about what you want and how to serve you best. I wish for the life of me I could remember their names but I can only hope they see this and know that I am so thankful for their kindness My only regret was not being able to go back before we left. Thank you folks at Tiger Bar!!!

We loved Tiger Bar when it first opened. The cool décor, unique cocktails, tasty food, exceptional…read morestaff, and great music created an atmosphere that made it a fun and distinctive place for an evening out with my husband or friends. Sadly, since the change in ownership, it seems to have gone downhill quickly. On our recent visits, they no longer had the ingredients needed to make many of the cocktails, the food has essentially disappeared from the menu--with only popcorn available--and the music was so painfully loud that we felt like we needed earplugs. What was once a unique destination now feels like just another bar on the Gallatin strip, which is really disappointing because the original Tiger Bar had so much character and potential. At this point, I would even suggest considering a name change. Many of the older, glowing reviews reflect the Tiger Bar that existed under the previous ownership and, unfortunately, don't represent the experience today. If it had not been for the kind staff (I counted only 3 which may explain why tables were sticky) I would give zero stars. Giving 2 stars because the staff was friendly and kind and seemed to be trying , the bar tender did attempt to offer drink suggestions. They are not the blame for downfall of a once cool bar and vibe.

In the spirit of getting out and making an effort to explore my new city I decided to find a place to go and enjoy a solo date night and grab a fancy drink. You know the vibes a Carrie Bradshaw moment but make it Nashville style. I found this place via instagram and read all the great reviews and decided to get out and try it. A cozy place tucked and hidden in the heart of east Nashville. It is somewhat hidden with a small parking area but I was fortunate enough to get parking right in front. I walked in and the decor is pops of red and black mixed with gold. The light is dim so it's a perfect date night spot or place to meet and have an intimate small group gathering. It wasn't busy and I enjoyed that there wasn't too many people. The vibes are relaxed and I was greeted right away. Checking out the menu I decided on a spicy margarita concoction with tajin. The bartender brought it out and it was the perfect blend of flavor, spice and alcohol. It was refreshing and sweet/spicy. Perfect. This place is the perfect solo date night spot or date spot with your special someone or catch up sessions with friends. I enjoyed sitting, sipping and writing this review. Solo dates can be daunting and being in a new city can be daunting as well but finding hidden gems like this make it worth while. There's a quote that I love and that's "if you never go you'll never know." Don't let this be a place youll never know... head to your date with this place. Head to Amsterdamian.

When you walk in you're transported into another world! This little cocktail lounge has a super chill vibe with the bar giving subtle shoutouts to one of my favorite cities, Amsterdam There's cute little couches and chairs to have some nice convo with friends and those you love all while sipping some amazing cocktails!! I got the What's My Sage Again which was super refreshing herbaceous and citrusy with gin, sage, peach & lime ‍ It was an absolute dream! My husband got Amalfitano, a citrusy gin old fashioned The cocktails.. on point! Absolutely recommend this place. The bartender was great and matched the vibe. I wish we had gotten his name but we were so impressed with the little gem we were sitting in we didn't make much small talk other than drink recommendations. They also have a few mocktails and snacks available. We were headed to dinner for our next stop so we didn't try anything but we definitely recommend this place if you are looking for some good cocktails in the area!

What an amazing place to find! This was one of the best places on my trip to Nashville…read more Love everything about this gorgeous bar! Outside has great vibes, drinks are phenomenal.

Urban Cowboy is one of my favorite go-tos on a nice sunny day. The pizza is solid, however…read moreoverpriced and typically takes a while. It's a good pizza, more of a personal size. I recently tried the cucumber salad and am now obsessed. I hope this is not a seasonal item. The inside is a wine bar with plenty of options to choose from. Even if you aren't getting wine or one of the batched cocktails in side I still recommend walking through. The vibes are high and the interior design is gorgeous. The outside had plentiful seating. If you're lucky, you might get a seat around a real wood fireplace. If I could suggest one thing to Urban Cowboy it would be to provide blankest to those sitting outside without the fire place. I believe they do have blankets set out but I was unsure if I could take them so I just left them on the chair. I think it would be better to have an area with a sign saying "blankets for guests" or something along the lines. I always get a dirty martini at Urabn Cowboy. Its crisp yet dirty and always hits the spot. Another good option here is a aperol spritz. Theres always a line at the bar. I've talked to the bartenders and he confirmed you DO NOT have to line up in a single file line but it always happens. You can walk up like a normal bar and order!!
