We chose to go to The Library, which is located within The Old Hickory Steakhouse, simply because we liked the name -- we figured a bar called The Library would be quiet and chill, and it was. All the cocktails had literary names and puns, such as Life of Chai, Gift of a Magi, and Treasure Island. I ordered Fahrenheit 451 (Old Hickory bourbon, raw sugar, Regan's orange bitters, and cherrywood smoke -- they actually set the drink on fire so it would smoke), and my sister had Great Expectations (Zephyr gin, Italicus, lemon, pomegranete, simple syrup, and Zardetto Prosecco). We really enjoyed our drinks, and despite being pricy (drinks ranged from $15 to $18, which, while not cheap, is not higher than most places), we would liked to have stayed for another one, but unfortunately we only had time for one round.

The Library is a cool cocktail bar that technically doesn't have the feel of the library but the…read moreadjacent room next to it at the Old Hickory Smokehouse within the Gaylord Opryland Resort does. The bar is a nice spot to obtain a couple of nightcaps before they close down around 9:30 -- 10 depending on the evening. The bartenders are lovely. The extra dirty gin martinis are very solid especially since they carry Hendricks. They do offer a solid whiskey selection but I did find the pricing for a full measure for many of the allocated bottles to be more than elsewhere. But it is within a resort and there is demand for that if you are inclined. I went for the martinis as that is a good indicator if a bar can nail a standard or one that is extra dirty. I was pleased with that result.

Canvas has come a long way here in Nashville and it has been really cool to see it all culminate in…read morethis amazing location in the Fatherland area of East Nashville. Canvas is a mix of lounge, bar, club and patio...and I am here for it all. The vibe here is a bit different than the other "family" bars in town, and in a much better way in my opinion. The crowd is diverse, more respectful and less pretentious than you may get downtown. This goes for the bartenders and staff too. Drinks are fairly priced and always poured well. They have a good variety of bottled and canned cocktails/beverages as well, but the cocktails, especially their seasonal selections, are where it is at. While we have been known to belly up to the bar or grab a high top inside, the patio, which has evolved in the last year, is our favorite spot. It is open air but able to be temperature controlled, covered to keep you out of the rain or sun, and has enough seating for small or large groups. Inside the layout is standard with the bar, a few booths, lounge seating a dance floor and a stage...because why wouldn't there be a stage?! My only gripe with the full layout is there is no room for the bar to get backed up, it is basically two deep and then you have to move over. Not sure if there is a solve for that, but worth pointing out. However, even with this, the bartenders are always efficient and keep things moving so it doesn't get backed up for long. Canvas is becoming the anchor of the "gayborhood" in this area and since they moved in an LGBTQ+ center and clinic have taken up residence in the same plaza. The parking lot is also home to the cities only Gay Farmers Market, which is a fun place to wander around before or after popping into Canvas for a cocktail or three. Overall, cool to have Canvas in the neighborhood and really cool to see them thriving in such a good space!

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.
