As…read moresomeone who grew up in Nashville and has been here for forever, it really surprises me when there are places that take me forever to get to. Well this is one of those places. The music venue is on the smaller side so the shows feel very personal and intimate. It's also pretty cool that we can interact and talk to the musicians before and after the show. The staff there was all so kind and checked in on us throughout the night. This time when we went we got dinner ahead of time, but I'd love to try some things off of their menu the next time I'm there! I'll definitely going back for more shows in the future

We were so surprised and felt genuinely thought of. It was dark, cozy, and the vibes were jazzy and right. Flo was our server and she got us so much gumbo and drinks. We were so happy with the service she provided and loved our time being there. This place has always been a 12/10 for me when I lived in Nashville and still is.

The atmosphere was intimate, the band was incredible, and I absolutely loved the soul music vibe. That kind of authentic soul sound feels like a long-lost art these days, which made the experience even more special. Highly recommend checking this place out if you're in Nashville.

If you are up for a full dinner, the food is second to none. For many years I went to hear the great John Johnthis, and was so excited to hear that Terrific Terri is now holding down the fort. The first time I heard Terri play and sing was at a wonderful restaurant in Green Hills -- since gone the way of all flesh. I told Terri after the show "I'll bet your parents were shocked when you came into the world White and Blonde." (She told me later that was the finest compliment she had ever received.) Of course, I said that, because she covers Dionne Warrick like no one I have ever hear, and get's down on the Blues. It is hard to say whether Terri is a better singer or jazz pianist. She is simply terrific at both. Terri has a great personality and talks to the audience between tunes, which is both enlightening and entertaining. So I am awarding V'Lounge Five Stars and look forward to my next vist.

This FREE concert series at Cumberland Park on the East bank of the Cumerland river (next to LP…read moreField) started this year and runs the third Sunday of each month from August to November (4 concerts total). It goes from 5-7pm and will be returning next year in case you can't make the last date of November 21st. It features famous jazz musicians playing original and classic tunes. They play in the amphitheater in the park, and there are no seats, so bring a blanket or chairs or, if you can make it, you can sit on the wall. I heard about this through the Artober Nashville promotions, and having never been to Cumberland Park I decided to give it a try. I will review that park in a seperate post, but it is absolutely beautiful and I can't wait to go there again. Beautiful views of downtown Nashville at sunset with our wonderful pedestrian bridge...yeah its pretty much the best setting ever for a free jazz concert. And Nashville, for being Music City, we sure do lack good jazz. But apparently you've realized that, and found a solution in this little gem. I thank you for that. This is still a new event so it wasn't crowded, and it was very relaxing. There's a concession stand near the bridge but that's all for food or drink as of now, so I recommend packing a picnic, and bringing extra clothes as its chilly this time of year (not so in the summer months). It's a great way to wind down a Sunday, and like I said you can't beat the views. The musicians were beyond talented, and the music is so soothing. The quartet that played this weekend did a great rendition of "What a Wonderful World" that seemed to resonant with the surroundings themselves. I will be going to the one in November, even if I have to wear winter gear to do so. I will absolutely support this great idea so it keeps happening. Please, remind Music City that we like more than country. This was a great event and I am so happy I got the chance to try it out.

It might be me, but I feel like this event is overshadowed by some of the other outdoor musical events and it shouldn't. It's a perfect way to end your week!

I really adored the interior of this place. Thats why this place gets 2 stars instead of 1. I was very much displeased with the service of the cashier. The other shorter one was nice. This cashier took my order and just walked away. I asked for a diet coke with extra ice. I was very parched from my walk and it was really hot! I told her im very thirsty and that id like my drink now. When she walked away I thought she was going to get it, but that was not the case. I was left standing there for minutes until I flagged the other girl and had to ask a second time. The girl who initially took my order was the rudest person so far that ive met in Nashville. Since ive been here, everyone has been lovely and just so kind. The service here is off putting. Too bad, bc I loved the atmosphere and even enjoyed the simple and only breakfast item egg and cheese they had other than a parfait. I would come again but rudeness is always unacceptable.

But if you're looking for an authentic, old-school Nashville music experience, this IS the place! It's crowded. It's hot. Personal space does not exist. Claustrophobics should plan accordingly. The night we were there, they had a bluegrass jam going, and it was fantastic. Close your eyes and you could imagine yourself sitting in some West Virginia holler listening to a bunch of incredibly talented musicians just playing because they love to play. It was uncomfortable, crowded, hot, completely authentic--and I enjoyed every minute of it. The Station Inn is Nashville the way you hope Nashville still exists.

Once inside, people make a mad dash to claim their seats, and they squeeze in as tight as they can. Popcorn, Jack's-like pizza served on paper plates and buckets of beer are available, and the line is long. The music here IS phenomenal, without a doubt. That alone is worth the visit, but be prepared to wait in line and feel like a sardine stuffed in a tin. Not for the claustrophobic,

We had been exploring different parts of Nashville throughout the weekend, and Pete's was definitely one of the more entertaining stops we made. The atmosphere here was exactly what you would expect from a dueling piano bar. The music was loud, energetic, and a lot of fun. The pianists did a great job keeping the crowd involved, and there was a good mix of songs that had everyone singing along. It was one of those places where you can walk in not knowing exactly what to expect and quickly find yourself having a great time. Going with a group of friends made it even better. We were able to grab some drinks, relax, laugh, sing along, and just enjoy the experience. There was a great energy in the room, and the performers really knew how to keep things moving. After spending the weekend in Nashville for the football game, this was a great way to experience another side of the city. We had already visited several historical landmarks and other Nashville attractions, so spending some time at a lively piano bar was a nice change of pace. We had a great time at Pete's and I would definitely recommend it if you are looking for live entertainment and a fun night out in Nashville. It was a memorable stop during our Labor Day weekend trip with friends.
