The ambiance in this place is great. The drinks are better. Alex made me several great cocktails. I started with the cocktail of the week called Sea Foam. Incredible. Then I had another couple, one as is, one subbing mezcal for tequila. Both great. As I has sat there looking at their selection of spirits I wondered if they had the ingredients to make my favorite tiki cocktail. I asked, Alex delivered. It had been six years since I had that cocktail and, while not having 100% of the ingredients, it was so damn close that it took me right back to the where and when I last drank it. Now that I know they can make it, I will be returning on a regular basis. This is a great dark and intimate location to bring a date or come solo. The folks that work there are friendly, talented and accommodating. Really great spot! read more

Old Glory - Bow to the Bird - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

It's all about the atmosphere here. One of a kind buried factory that sets the mood for chill or dark romance! Get ready to fork over the credit card, though, very pricey, and their drink proportions are a bit on the small side in my opinion, which paints a little bit too much of a pretentious worth, but I suppose that's subjective. Still, really amazing vibe, worth visiting ! read more

VIBES. I love this secret dungeon hideout. It is so amazing once you walk down the winding staircase and you feel like you may need a secret passcode to get in. The drinks are good but very Nashville expensive. The service is good but the tables are so so dark. You can barely see the people sitting with you at the table. read more

The space is really cool. I love the crazy high ceilings and how it feels like you're in the middle of a giant boiler room, cause I'm pretty sure this definitely used to be a giant boiler room. The drinks were good - they need to update their online menu so the cocktail of the week (discounted, but we had to remind them) would be accurate. The guy at the front who took our IDs seemed a little judgey. Yeah, me and my hubby are nerds - but we love a good cocktail. Bartender and other servers were nice. I'd love to come back to see their shows they have. read more

This was a good change of pace from some of the other bars I've been to in Nashville! Old Glory has a dark, speakeasy vibe. We visited in October and the Halloween decor added to the ambiance. The drinks were very good, but on the expensive side. I enjoyed having servers that walked around and never felt like I was waiting on someone. Lots of places to sit and different levels that you can explore. We went on a Saturday night and they also had a DJ. Definitely recommend for a fun and unique spot! read more

Old Glory - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

It's hidden but find it and bring your friends in for a fun treat! Located in Edgehill Village, we took our out of town friends for a drink before our dinner reservations at Sadie's. It was great- it was not crowded but our server took a wee bit too long to get our drink order, so we had to hurry to make our reservation. I really enjoyed the taste of my cocktail of the week/ "Year of the Snake" and would highly recommend it. Ambience here is dark and mysterious...! Our friends loved it because it's out of the norm here in Nashville instead of same awww ol' same ol'. read more

Old Glory - Year of the Snake cocktail was delicious and fruity!! - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

I'm obsessed with this sultry boiler room cocktail bar, open until 1am every night. My friend and I came here on a trip. The atmosphere and drinks were phenomenal. Plenty of seating nooks that feel private for catch up gossip. Customer service is great. I remember getting the Coast to Coast (and a few others) - carefully crafted and delicious. Love the whole menu full of unique combinations of ingredients and would go out of my way to come back again! read more

Old Glory is a definite favorite if you're looking for that vibey night out with cocktails. The ambiance and decor is so unique, and I love the feature staircase so you feel like you're descending into an exclusive party. My one boomer complaint is that the music is usually too loud for a normal conversation, so not ideal unless you want to dance. read more

This was a nice speakeasy, it does get crowded like others stated. I was a bit bummed because the door was just open so it was easy to find. The drinks were delicious and strong and the mixologists were on top of their game with recommendations or asking what one would prefer in order to make something we'd like. It's a welcoming ambiance and it's just pretty how it's decorated and how it looks in the dark. I recommend coming early to get a seat! read more

I went here with a friend for a mini reunion during a weekday happy hour. The reviews are definitely true about the ambiance: gorgeous, industrial, high ceilings with a slightly hush-hush, Prohibition feel. I would say speak-easy exactly, because I've been a few that land flawlessly on that exact atmosphere in other cities. However, on a sunny afternoon, the dimly lit and jovial atmosphere borrows a bit from a neighborhood pub (considering I've heard it's packed to the gills on the weekend. Wouldn't advise that.) My one tiny suggestion is to consider the pour for the bar. I had a drink they poured by the bottle (believe it was an ale but I might be mistaken), and my friend and I were pretty confused. It was barely half the glass. Given the steep prices here (inflated by Edgehill renting), the drink was still expensive even by happy hour prices. We still had a lovely time, and perhaps the onus was on me to simply ask the bartender a question about amount. Maybe the glass was just really big? I say totally worth it for the weekday happy hour vibes so long as you develop good rapport with your barkeep. Parking is mostly street with a paid lot near Warby. The entrance is "hidden," but fairly easy to find with any map app. Enjoy! read more

I loved it!!! Super hidden, which i adore, great staff. Warm lounge feel. Great music and even better cocktails. I would suggest to get there before 8 to grab a table or seat. This spot gets booked and busy baby!! It's a must go to! read more

Old Glory - Long goodbye - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Really cool place to grab a drink. I brought some friends on a Saturday night to the "Wow" event with SUSPENDED GRAVITY CIRCUS AND PYROGLYPHICS and we had a really great time. We had trouble seeing the performances at some points because the bar became crowded, but it was really great for a free show. The drinks were good as well, our service was lacking somewhat and it is good to note that 20% gratuity is added to all checks. I think it would be a great place to go on a date or for a drink before a night out. read more

This place is freaking awesome! We went to two speakeasy's in Nashville and we really enjoyed this one. We went at night, very dark inside and music was pretty loud. Kinda of hard to have conversation but allowed for great people watching. Cocktails were great but wouldn't spend an entire night here. Good night cap or place to start your evening! read more

Old Glory is one of the coolest bars I've ever been to. The music is good, the service is good, and the drinks are good. All in all, this is a solid spot. The staff was very knowledgeable and gave great recommendations, and of course were very friendly. My only gripe with it is that it is a bit on the pricier side. You are paying for the ambiance and atmosphere 100%. To give an idea of what I spent, it was about $38 for two cocktails after the automatic 20% gratuity. The seating can be a bit tricky, but we ended up being able to grab a table, so just be patient! read more

Old Glory - Ambiance - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

This review is about the ambiance, unfortunately, my visit ended prematurely. There is no sign on the door - you're looking for a gold triangle. We walked by it 4 times and didn't see it. We finally did find it and walked into a dark, loud, industrial setting. The hostess was at the bottom of the staircase and waved us down. The stairs were dark. Very dark. I know a flashlight could ruin the ambiance but honestly, I was a little uncomfortable. Even though it was a Friday night, we were given a choice of seats. We opted for the bar, up another flight of dark stairs. We were overlooking the entire venue. I thought it was actually pretty neat. A QR code showed the menu. The custom cocktails baffled me a little. I didn't know what a lot of the ingredients were but I was anxious to find out. Here's where our visit screeched to a halt. I was with an old friend. Places like this are foreign to her - she's new to this lifestyle - newly single, first time empty nester after 4 kids, still working full time and very, very (extremely) conservative. She said she was uncomfortable there so we left. Luckily service was snail like slow so we hadn't ordered yet. Really no big deal - my husband and I, on the other hand, have been empty nesters for years and are now retired. Places like Old Glory are just the adventure we're always on the lookout for. He and I will be back in Nashville next week. I'll have to make sure we leave time in our schedule to visit Old Glory. read more

It's not really hidden. But it looks so good inside. It is super small. And it has waves of crowds so that it doesn't stay too packed all the time. And the bartender literally comes to find you! They do add gratuity. Which I didn't mind because they didn't overcharge with it. And being the bartender has to go and find you going up and down stairs, I do believe that's fair! Now those drinks are strong! So please walk around after leaving to walk off some of the alcohol. Hell! Just walk to midtown! Now the ambiance was beautiful! S*** tons of couples! But I see why! The DJ...was definitely a latchkey kid and born in the 70s, lol! But he was on with the music Coach jeremy! You can find out on IG who's dj-ing. Will be coming back! Great hangout spot, but the parking sucks. And I seriously don't care. read more

Old Glory - STRONG ass drinks!! - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

The wife and I have started seeking out speakeasies in the cities we visit. Old Glory is one of a few in Nashville. We decided to check this place out because it has the speakeasy vibe without being super exclusive. I mean, I'm just visiting. I'm not trying to join a club. Old Glory is actually more than we anticipated. It is located in an old brick building that used to house steam cleaning equipment. The vaulted ceilings, industrial equipment, old tiles, and red bricks really scream prohibition era. As we entered through the door marked only with a gold triangle, it really felt like stepping back in time. We were greeted by the host on a landing overlooking the huge space and led to bar stools on the second level. Our waitresses were both very personable and checked on us at appropriate times. The craft cocktails menu has quite a few choices. The descriptions provide just enough information to keep your drink choices adventurous. I had a rye cocktail called Big Sun. It was smooth. I do recommend it. read more

The atmosphere was amazing, and I would highly recommend coming here--just be sure to request not to have Julia P. as your server. From the moment we sat down, her attitude was terrible. Despite our efforts to be polite and friendly, we were met with eye rolls and dismissive head nods. We specifically asked for our checks to be split three ways, and she informed us that four was the maximum, which we agreed to. However, at the end of the night, after a great time with friends, we asked for our checks to be split--only to be told that she had already charged one card $300 without mentioning it beforehand. Had she communicated this earlier, it wouldn't have been an issue, but handling it this way only added to an already frustrating experience. Everyone has bad days, but after multiple unpleasant interactions, it genuinely felt like we were being treated as an inconvenience. The restaurant wasn't even busy--it was a Thursday night--so there was no apparent reason for the hostility. From the start, we made a conscious effort to be extra polite, yet the service completely ruined what should have been an exciting night. Extremely disappointed. read more

I love Old Glory - plain and simple. Hidden away enough to be a speakeasy type bar, beautiful inside with a nice moody vibe. I love all of the cocktails and have enjoyed quite a few here over the years. The service can be a little hit or miss depending on where you are seated and how busy they are - but you'll get what you need no matter what. The espresso martini and old fashioned are two of my go-to drinks and MAN are they good. They have a great selection of liquors so you will not be disappointed trying to find something you like. Cheers! read more

If you like nice cocktails in a dramatic setting, this is a great option. If you want to impress your date, look no further. They are located in a building that was once used as the boiler room for an industrial sized laundry, which creates an incredibly unique atmosphere that offers up numerous different spaces for you to enjoy. The entrance is a bit hard to find, so put it into your GPS and look for the black door with the gold triangle painted around it. There are comfy booths downstairs, seating at the bar, and behind the bar, there are stairs that go up two levels with views overlooking the space below. You enter and go down a beautiful spiral staircase into a dimly lit area with high ceilings and loud music setting a great tone. They do offer food, which was delicious, but it's more amouse bouche sized, it's not somewhere you could have an entire dinner. When we visited the extent of the options were two sandwiches, essentially high class grilled cheeses, one of which had mozarella, pesto, and red chilies, while the other was more traditional. They are small and $8, but as I mentioned, they are great. Perfect snacks to enjoy so you don't drink on an empty stomach. With the food out of the way, we sampled some of their cocktails. They have a big list of classics and signatures. If you're a fan of boozy, simple drinks, one of the staples is called the Panther Panther, which is your choice of spirit served over a big, house-made coffee ice cube. Coffee ice cubes are as magical and delicious as they sound, and as the drink mellowed, it grew in flavor. I tried one with southern amaro, which was perfect, though aged rum was a great choice as well. They also make a top notch old fashioned. If you like fruitier drinks, they have those as well. Cool place, maybe our favorite cocktail spot in Nashville. read more

Old Glory - OG espresso martini - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Went to Old Glory during a recent vacation with friends and we loved it! Some even said it was their favorite bar of the whole trip. We were at a place around the corner and decided to check OG out too. It was a little hard to find, but if you see a door with a yellow painted triangle around it then you're there. It's located in an old historic boiler room with massive ceilings. You can really feel the history and age of the place when you're there. It's a little dark, but it added to the cool atmosphere. It felt a bit like a speakeasy. The waiter was great. No complaints. All the drinks were top notch. Our favorites were the In Bloom and Emily's Salty Dog. There's also a fun photo booth that I'd recommend taking advantage of with friends. Our only regret was not going back! read more

Come expecting a different experience. It's classy, candle lit, gratuity automatically 20% (if I remember correctly ) included. Pricey but you're paying to be swooned by the ambiance and served like you own the place. read more

Old Glory - Historic building - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Love this bar! We only had one drink and then headed out, but I loved the vibe and look of this place. Apparently, it used to be an old laundromat company? There is food served here, most sandwiches, but the real reason to come here is for the bar and deep cocktail menu. Get here early to avoid the crowd and maybe leave the older parents at home because there are a lot of stairs. I suggest sitting in the balcony area to really soak in the look of this place. read more

Besides being sticker-shocked with a $50 bill for three drinks, I'm even more shocked at Emily, the GM (oddly she neglected to sign her surname) replying to my concern over the added gratuity. I don't have a copy of the drink menu, nor my check, to confirm if it states a 20% gratuity would be added to all checks no matter party size. It's pretty dark in there, so menus and tabs are hard to read. After putting a candle near the check in this very dark speakeasy, I saw that a line near the total stated an added gratuity. It wasn't verbalized, so I almost added a tip on top of it. We all know the restaurant industry got hit hard with Covid. I worked in the industry almost all my life. I've heard dozens and dozens of people complain that some businesses appear to be taking advantage of customers by adding at least a 20% gratuity to all sorts of orders. I'm just in total disbelief that a GM would actually come out and state it very clearly to me that we, as consumers, must foot the bill because the wages paid by their employers are not enough to compensate them. read more

Incredible cocktails, in an incredible atmosphere. I highly recommend this speakeasy if you are in Nashvegas

This speakeasy is hard to find but worth the effort. The drinks are inventive, the room was so cool (old boiler room, albeit not ADA compliant), and the waiter was kind and chill. I enjoyed it a lot. My first cocktail was seriously yummy but odd. It featured saffron liquor plus vodka ... and some butternut squash. Weird, right? Still it hit enough notes that I enjoyed it a lot. Next cocktail was still vodka based but it had cucumber and lime. It was more my speed but maybe less inventive. read more

Drinks great DJ on 6/6 sucked. No one dancing asked for a song he wouldn't play it. No wonder empty on a Friday.

Old Glory has always intrigued me. I have been here twice with large groups and we were always well accommodated. There are drink types for everyone. I enjoyed the fact they have non-alcoholic drinks on the menu instead of me trying to make up some concoction in my head. read more

Great atmosphere, but not enjoyable. That is unless you desire some energy-cleansing palo santo blown up your nose to drown out the flavor notes of your expensive subpar cocktail. My pretend-woke bartender was also not a shining moment for this establishment; undoubtedly the rudest bartender I've ever experienced. My suggestion: find a more friendly bar, with much better cocktails, where you won't be bullied and shamed by all that millennial wisdom. read more

I don't quite get this place. It might be because of when I stopped in (a Saturday night after 9 pm). I was at a show nearby that let out early and wanted to grab a drink or two, sit and chill before my ride was able to pick me up in an hour or so. Judging by other reviews and details, I was under the impression this was an old-school, "classy" bar with craft cocktails and a good selection of spirits. And...it kind of is or could be if it committed to that. It's dimly lit and open, very interesting layout. However seating is extremely limited. I only spotted a couple of actual bar seats and a handful of booths. There's a big open area that could be a dance floor--there was a DJ spinning records but literally no one was dancing. I made my way to the bar and ordered a four roses on the rocks--they have a wide variety of bourbons at very fair prices--the bartender was friendly and quick. Once I had my drink I had nowhere to sit, so I made my way to the wall at the edge of the semi-dancefloor. Leaning against it, it seemed to be fake wood and/or particle board? My drink was good and I wanted to try another pour of something else, so I did but still had nowhere to chill so back to my corner I went. I moved along after that. Bartenders were friendly as mentioned, prices are fair on spirits (typically Nashville hotspot overpriced for "craft" cocktails). Just an odd vibe. It feels like they want to be a dance club in an old-fashioned "mature" bar but are not fully succeeding at either. Note--they only have a small number of beers, so plan to stick to wine or liquor. Get here early if you plan to hang out, I guess. read more
