The bar itself is not huge, if you are going for a game I would recommend getting there early. Classic drink and food options. The chicken strips were huge and tasted freshly fried.

It comes with a lot of bread and is so good. Their smashburger is also really good, and the waffle fries are amazing. The drinks are a highlight too. I loved the skinny margaritas, and the frozen blackberry mule was so good. They have a really nice patio that's perfect for hanging out. The only downside is that I feel like they close the patio/space a little early around 10 PM, and after that the inside gets extremely packed and it's hard to move around. The mozzarella sticks were good, but a lot of them were missing cheese, which was disappointing. Overall, still a really fun spot with great food, drinks, and atmosphere. Definitely worth checking out for a casual dinner or drinks before heading out.

Great spot with a lot of character…read more While staying in Clarksville, one of the locals recommended that try Mother's Ruin. Luckily it was walking distance from one of the trolley stops (Farmers Market). We came in on a Sunday afternoon. It was busy but we were able find a spot. We started with drinks. We then ordered a falafel sandwich with the waffle fries and a queso dip. The fries and the dip were delicious. The falafel sandwich was also good. The service was quick and we picked up a t-shirt on the way out. Definitely recommend if you are in the area.

Wow wow wow! Now I know what everyone was talking about with their steak dinner…read more I was really looking forward to the rolls again since they're the same as the Optimist. They didn't disappoint, we even asked for more. We got the frozen espresso martini and it's probably the best frozen version I've had. Easy and tasty salad. The onion rings were delicious with a little kick in the batter. Now the FRIES were unexpected. Basically a mix of fair fry and a wedge. Crunchy, salted well, and thick. Contender for the best fries I've ever had. Now the steak was delish. We got a filet and ribeye, both delicious. For the price of this meal, it's so worth it. I loved the artists singing. Such a nice voice and good vibe. They were from out of town but hope they come back and play elsewhere. We'll be back for the burger happy hour!

It's the kind of place that gives you something a little different from your usual Nashville night out. We went on a Saturday and I ordered the filet. Every steak comes with the full spread: Salad, bread, and fries/onion rings. Great value for what you pay. The steak was cooked and seasoned well, the salad featured a standout buttermilk dill dressing that I really loved, unlimited rolls with that perfect touch of sweetness and salt, and a huge basket that's half onion rings, half fries. I was stuffed! The fries deserve a special mention. Thicker cut with an incredibly crispy exterior, almost like a potato skin in fry form. For drinks, I ordered their Filthy Martini and they let me call my gin of choice. Gin drinkers, you'll appreciate that. It was well crafted and exactly what I wanted. A few practical things worth knowing before you go. There is a $10 charge added to your bill that goes directly to the band, which I think is completely reasonable especially given the meal you're also getting. Parking is not validated or covered so plan accordingly. The band playing when we visited Saturday around 7:30 wasn't the most memorable I've heard in Nashville, but the lineup rotates so your experience may vary. Either way, having live music as the backdrop while you eat adds a really nice energy to the evening. Overall a worthwhile and unique addition to the Nashville dining scene.

They have several bars but depending on the show can get busy. The parking across the street is $40! If you're lucky, you can find street parking or there are cheaper parking lots nearby! I typically stick to wine if I go here as the cocktails aren't the greatest. I attend lots of shows here yearly! Most shows have the option to watch from upstairs. I like that because I'm vertically challenged and sometimes can't see if taller people are standing in front of me. All and all, definitely catch a show here.

The staff is always super friendly and welcoming, and I honestly prefer this location over the Gulch because the patio is bigger and more comfortable. I think the food is also a little better here. The crispy buffalo chicken wrap is always a go to, and the Titan sandwich is another favorite. The service is consistently great, and I love that this location is a little more relaxed. This is definitely the Neighbors location I would recommend for larger groups. They have bigger outdoor tables, TVs outside, and it's usually not as crowded, making it a great spot to watch a game or hang out with friends.

You find all the necessary munchies, smoked wings, mozzarella sticks, burgers.... You get it, all the sports bar fixings but with really good bartenders that can also shake you a sofisticated cocktail. They got the volume ON for the game of the day! (Many "sports" bars in town do not). A true sports bar, also you know if you see Metro PD eating here it's a good place. And don't forget the outdoor seating, also with perfect opportunity to watch your favorite team.

The outdoor area was very cute and has picnic benches, as well as cabanas to hangout under. The bartender was the only one working and she did such an amazing job!

Sampled the pepperoni flatbread, sweet potato tots, and the chicken power caesar. Would order the latter two again on a future visit, but would probably opt for a different flatbread or other entree to pair. Service was friendly and helpful (not their fault they were out of a few items), and special shoutout to the gentleman manning the kitchen! Looked like a cramped one-man show, and very impressed with the speed!
