There wasn't live entertainment, just karaoke, which is offered in many places downtown for no cover. It was also not posted which, from my experience in Atlanta, they always post that there is a cover outside. Just feels scummy. It's a very average bar that offers literally nothing special. There is no great view, the service is the same as any bar, it doesn't even have a nice decor; there is no reason to be charging an entrance fee. Enjoyed the visit but will not return.

We moved on to the Filet for dinner and it was well prepared; not an amazing filet (not as tender as I have had) but a good steak for the money. During our time we enjoyed a few cocktails that is one of the highlights of their establishment. We got there before live music started. Upstairs they had quite a line dancing event going on and we heard the stomping above us. There were a lot of folks there for line dancing, then, later, for the live music. Our waitress was good and checked on us often. Nothing but positive things to say about the overall experience.

The drinks are equally impressive, with a well-curated cocktail list and bartenders who clearly know their craft. What really sets The Reserve apart is the atmosphere. It's stylish without being pretentious, lively without being overwhelming, and always welcoming. Whether you're planning a night out with friends, a date night, or just want to unwind after a long day, The Reserve is easily the best place in the area for nightlife. It combines quality, energy, and service in a way few places can.

Hot dogs can be purchased as well. I recommend the slushies but the vodka used should be upgraded as it left me with a headache & I didn't over imbibe. It's definitely got a vibe all its own & I loved it but won't be everyone's cup of tea;) & that's part of its charm.

The decor inside is nice, with magnolia wood tables that give the space a sophisticated yet cozy feel. A sign posted said that the bar is not owned or operated by the hotel, so you cannot bill your drinks directly to your room tab. Additionally, they serve beverages only, so don't expect any food, appetizers, or light snacks. You will want to eat before you arrive or after. For drinks, they offer a standard selection of beer, wine, and cocktails. While they don't have mocktails explicitly listed on the drink menu, the friendly bartender offered to mix up a non-alcoholic version of their popular "Front Porch Swing" cocktail for me. It was a beautiful, blueberry-flavored mocktail that tasted fantastic. My only real concern is that the space was exceptionally quiet, with only three customers total on a Friday night, which makes me wonder how much regular business they get. However, if you are staying at the hotel and want a beautiful, quiet spot for a premium drink, it is absolutely worth popping in.

One truly remembers a place this wonderful. Located in beautiful quaint Jonesboro, there are many uniques shops and restaurants. Tennessee Hills offers tastings. The personnel are knowledgeable and friendly. We have had some of the best conversations with the staff and customers. This time we had lunch at the cafe next door. Fantastic food choices the Reuben and spicy chicken sandwiches get my highest recommendation. They offer a great number of mixed drinks made with their craft distilled spirits. Several Sunday football games were on the TVs in the cafe. The mood was festive in the cafe. Tennessee Hills has a new location in Bristol too! We will be back again and again!

We were checking out the city of Jonesborough, Tennessee and drove into the historic downtown area…read more We found street parking that made it easy to walk and explore. From our parking spot, we spotted Tennessee Hills Distillery and knew we needed to check it out. The Tennessee Hills Distillery opened in the historic Salt House of Jonesborough in 2016. We were immediately impressed with the downtown area of Jonesborough and the salt house in which Tennessee Hills Distillery is located. The building itself is amazing and is something that we would love to have as our own. We are drawn to historic commercial buildings that are being preserved and renovated to house businesses and/or homes. After walking inside, we were even more impressed. They were offering complimentary tastings and we decided to participate. We thought the pineapple upside down cake rum was delicious. They have a wide selection of liquor ranging from whiskey, flavored whiskey, rum, flavored rum, gin and vodka. They also have some nice SWAG for purchase and unique gift items. We purchased a bottle of their Pineapple Upside Down Cake Rum to give to our good friends. Overall, this was a great visit and we highly recommend to others.

The vibe, the food, the service - all of it was perfection. Kudos to the chefs, I'm beyond impressed with the Appalachia flair in each dish but also THE FLAVORS and mixing other ethnic cuisine with the local goods. A true farm to table with a flair! DO NOT SKIP the hand pie, I don't care what it contains as it changes daily. Try everything and go hungry! I'm still thinking about that meal and trying to decide if it's crazy to drive all the way back to Johnson City from Nashville just to eat there again soon. Iris, you are a gem and thank you for taking care of us. I will be back!! Also, apologies I took hardly any photos. It was too difficult not to devour the dishes right away.

The atmosphere was laidback and friendly, and the owner came by to chat with us, only to discover her parents live in a city less than an hour from us in Texas! We ordered all four varieties of bruschetta (2 pieces each of classic tomato & burrata, chorizo & manchego, pesto & roasted red bell peppers, and fig & apple), Korean meatballs, and a miso caramel cheesecake. In retrospect, we would have replaced the chorizo for one of the other options (you choose your own two or four flavors), as the chorizo was tough. The other three, though, were top notch full of flavor, the Korean meatballs a perfect savory/sweet balance, and that cheesecake was unmatched! The server/bartender was friendly and helpful as well. We also purchased adorable Whistlepig Pub hoodies. Don't sleep on this super cute and original pub on your next trip to the Beech!

Great thought and time was put into the flavor profiles and presentation of these drinks. The glasses, ice, garnish - all on point. Superior! We ordered 5 different drinks. One was called Girl Dinner which was fabulous. Also had an Old Fashion, Manhattan, and a cognac/mead drink that I can't remember the name. All were tasty. Well executed. Flavor profiles were great. We did order the dip smaller and boy was that tasty too. The feta dip was amazing. The pitas were warm and nice crusty bread for dipping. The price is beyond reasonable for the portion and quality. We would have stayed all day here if we could. This place is awesome. Highly recommend. Once you go, you will be back. You will also sing like a canary (or pigeon) to let everyone know. Just fantastic.
