    ACS Pink Tie Affair Event held at Ruby.
    Jennifer P.

    This past Saturday was the American Cancer Society Junior Board's A Pink Tie Affair event. Being on the board, I had the pleasure of seeing Ruby pre and post decorations. Such a great space and it was so easy to work with. Ruby is a church turned venue that leaves you nothing short of amazed. The architecture is very modern and clean. My favorite part of the building has to be that both walls are lined with huge window doors that open to lead you to a very charming balcony. The bathrooms also have wonderful skylights. All in all, I think Ruby was an amazing venue decision for our event. It was large but still small enough to feel intimate, the space can absorb any decor vibe you want and it's conveniently located between the Vanderbilt and Hillsboro Village area.

    My wife and I held our reception at Ruby on 5.25.13. Today is 7.15.13, and people are STILL complimenting us on our beautiful day. Ruby not only served as the perfect frame for our party to unfold within, but also intimately shaped the way our party unfolded. When we first began looking for a place to have our reception, we toyed with the idea of an all-inclusive package elsewhere. But the benefits of Ruby far outweighed the temptation to set the planning to autopilot. We wanted the opportunity to craft a reception after our own style, and Ruby perfectly allowed that. First, of course, is the space itself. Ruby's high, vaulted ceilings, plastered walls, and dark hardwood floors were ready for us to drape string lights, shoot uplights, and party. It's also situated with a park around it, which allowed us to setup lawn games for our guests with a competitive streak. And with parking available just next door, everything was right where we needed it. All this fails to mention the front patio- which is amazing! We kept it tented just in case a little shower popped up. While we had the (huge, beautiful) doors open during our cocktail hour, most of our guests chose to hang out on the patio drinking, listening to music, and enjoying the perfect weather we were lucky to have. Another huge plus to Ruby is the contract. We loved having the flexibility to bring in any vendor we wanted (as long as they met a few basic requirements like carrying event insurance). Ruby does offer a list of approved vendors, but by approved you should read "these folks have done amazing work in Ruby before", not "these are the only people allowed". I feel a responsibility to respond directly to the review and responses below by Sarah R. I'm not in a place to say what is fabrication and what is truth; all I'm able to relate is our own experience. I should also note that we didn't use Dan or Brenda's planning service. Our experiences with Dan and Brenda were flawless. During our planning phase, the Cooks moved twice, and even through that we always found their response time quick. When we needed to check out the space or tour a vendor, they were always available at a moment's notice. Dan is one of those super cool guys that I hope to grow up being. When we asked for a band suggestion, he rattled off 10. When we wondered about a caterer, he pulled out his phone with pictures of the sweet things caterers have done at Ruby. He clearly lives this stuff. When we were looking for a wedding coordinator, Dan let us know that he and Brenda were offering those services. My wife and I interviewed several planners, and the thing that stood out most about the Cooks was how engaged they were during the interview. We had a few planners who just sat back and took notes. Not Brenda. As we spoke, she actively offered suggestions based on what we were brainstorming. Ultimately though, we chose Modern Vintage Events based on their style and pricing options. As an alternative example of what happened to us: after our wedding, we were out of there! The next day, we realized there were several things we had forgotten to assign people to take with them. After a few phone calls to family, we found that all our lawn games, and most of our decor had been left behind at Ruby. We went by to check it out, and found everything neatly stacked on the back patio waiting for us. Neither Dan nor Brenda contacted us about it, and we didn't hear from them at all until they thanked me for reviewing them on The Wedding Channel's website. Overall, we had a great time and experience with Ruby and the Cooks from start to finish! Also, sorry for such a lengthy review!

Originally the city's printing hub in the early 1900s, it transformed into a popular entertainment alley in the 1940s, providing a "grittier", more intimate alternative to Broadway's honky-tonks. Our experience here included an evening of drinks and music at Alley Taps, and just enjoying a few walks up and down the street. We had already learned some of the history here from our Joyride tour, which added nicely to our exposure.

    3.5 stars…read more Printer's Alley prints the chapter of an alley with two chapters. In chapter one it served as Nashville's printing hub in the early 1900s. In the second chapter that dates from the 1940s to the time of this writing, it is a nightclub and bar destination. In contrast to the nearby Broadway-Honkeytonk Highway, it is far smaller. It is two blocks long bounded by Commerce Street to the south, 4th Avenue to the west, Union Street to the North, and 3rd Avenue to the east. For purposes of this review, I am rating it from the perspective of walking in it during the late morning. When I experienced Printer's Alley it was part of a walk through Downtown Nashville. In the late morning it was quiet. I walked it a couple of times. From the northernmost point at Union Street to the southernmost point at Commerce Street it was a 0.21 mile walk that took six minutes. Unlike the nearby Honky Tonk Highway, it was very laid back and had an off the beaten path to it although it is a block from Broadway. I was impressed with the cleaniness of the alleyway. The historic buildings were free of graffiti and vandalism. That created a better perception of safety. Along the way there were a few signs that told the Printer's Alley story. One of them says, "Probation ends here." I noticed that the largest concentration of nightclubs and other businesses were just north of Church Street. The string lights called attention to these businesses. From my time in historic Printer's Alley, I saw that it was bookended by two modern buildings: UBS Center to the north and the At&T Building-the Tallest Building in Tennessee to the south. I cannot help but note that if the AT&T Building weren't there that possibly Printer's Alley could connect to Broadway. From a daytime perspective I give Printer's Alley Three Stars. In the daytime it is an interesting place to walk through as a part of a Downtown Nashville hike.

The food is bar food but on the better side of that. By now we must have visited at least a dozen times and I have never heard anyone in my groups having any complaints. I love to come here and I will be back soon again!

I would say that I really liked it. It took about 30ish minutes to complete. We didn't get food or drinks because we planned on getting them at our next stop. While this place was lovely and fun, I didn't not like how it started for a hot sec. Originally, I purchased a Groupon for their 9 hole experience which was $27. I got my code and put it in the website. However, the website wouldn't accept it. So when I went to call the restaurant to see how to correct the issue, there was no answer for 5 calls and an left voicemail. So I decided to purchase another 9 hole experience on their website. Which meant I paid $61 to play this game. But Groupon will refund me.

    I co-work a lot, so there are two main things I look for:…read more Outlets Parking This place is great at 1/2 of these things. Parking is perfect. Plenty of room to park. They have started doing a little better about having outlet options, but mainly at those tall, long skinny tables. The ones that aren't necessarily great for working because they're so high up and can make your legs feel weird after awhile. Haha. The other semi complaint I have is that they close early. 3 pm is early when you want to try and work. Drinks are good. I don't drink a ton of coffee these days, but what I've had there was good. I get either their chai or matcha. Both of those I enjoy! I had a sandwich there recently. I wanted to roll my eyes at the price truthfully. However, when it came.. WOAH. It was GIANT. I was thoroughly impressed. It was really really good. I had to take half of it home and put it in the fridge. When I came back home hours later... it was STILL GOOD. The bread was not soggy either! That's HUGE! Ok so overall, I highly recommend this place and it's one of my go to spots.

I'd still consider going back since they're open fairly late, which I really appreciate. There's a small parking lot next to the shop, which is convenient. Overall, a fun spot for the atmosphere even if the coffee didn't quite hit for me.
