This might be my favorite place in Nashville! The ambiance is very chill, low lighting but fun cozy seats inside with the burger food truck right out front! The mead itself is phenomenal! They have a variety of sweet to dry. Gluten free, no additives and low sugar with all natural and local honey (aka no hangover for me)! The staff was so friendly you will not be disappointed with the service! Cannot recommend this place enough. Can't wait to go back! read more

I came to Honeytree Meadery for trivia night. Our group had fun playing and the slow pace of the trivia gave us plenty of time to talk. There wasn't any table service and we picked our drinks of at the bar. There is a very thorough drink menu focused on honey and meade. Inside and outside seating is available. Food is not served but there is a food truck out front and plenty of other eateries along Main Street. If you aren't there on trivia night, multitudes of board games are avaialbe to play. read more

Side adventures lead us to this spot. Went in and it felt like a warm hug. The vibe is welcoming. Greeted immediately by a friendly bartender and DJ. I'm a crazy plant lady and they had beautiful plants everywhere and fairy lights! Got the flight and they were tasty. Also ordered a last word and I wasn't disappointed! Very good cocktail. They had a trivia in session. They validate parking in the lot to the left of the building. I will be back! read more

Honeytree Meadery - Meaderies Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

what a fun place! i got the mead tree so i could try some since ive never had mead before. I really enjoyed the variety of flavor profiles.

They have lots of games you cam play and plenty of seating. Definitely a good spot for a big group. super cool place and will be back. read more

We always love coming to the Honeytree Meadery. The staff are always incredibly kind and willing to explain the menu to you, and they allow small samples of the mead before you commit to a full glass. I typically order their sampler, which includes all three of their seasonal meads. Also, I just love the wooden glass holder. The ambiance is very welcoming. Most of the furniture is made of wood with their logo fire branded onto it (along with honeycomb designs). There is also an outdoor area, both in the front and back of the meadery. The front has some picnic benches and currently hosts the Bad Luck Burger food truck, so you can enjoy a burger while you enjoy your mead. The back patio area is spacious with a large stage and plenty of gigantic tables for seating. The mood is very chill, and they even sometimes host events (like fire dancing). It is dog friendly, but parking can admittedly be challenging at times. read more

Honeytree Meadery - The sampler and a serving of a seasonal mead - Meaderies Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

As part of the Music City Brew-Hop trolley, our first stop was at the Honeytree Meadery. The ancient honey-based mead comes in a variety of sweetness, from dry, not too sweet and super sweet, but if it's not sweet enough for you, Cameron knows his stuff and will find the right one for you. I went with the basic piña colada, which is dairy free. My husband went with the sweet baby ginger and the spiced blood orange. This place is super cute and has plenty of seating. They don't have food inside, but they have a food truck outside that you can order and bring inside. read more

We are so lucky to have Honeytree Meadery in Nashville! I appreciate that it is a bar where I can get an amazing mead, a cocktail, a mocktail, or a hot tea. Everyone who works there is so kind and always willing to talk through all of the options on the menu. And somehow they always make me feel like whatever I chose was a great choice! It is very fun to play trivia there on Sunday nights - the host is a hoot! Be sure to get there early though - the tables fill up! read more

My friend and I were on vacation and found this spot. They do have parking but you do have to pay. The inside is soo cute... it looks like you can reserve for special events. They have an outside patio so we sat outside. We wanted to try all the mead so we ordered the sampler!! I recommend if you want to try all but I will say we were not impress with the second and four sets. The service was good ... very friendly bartenders. read more

Honeytree Meadery - The 5 set of mead tasting - Meaderies Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Honeytree is such a unique spot, and I'm so glad they're located in my neighborhood. Before my first visit, I'd tried mead at a Renaissance Festival and liked it enough ... but that experience couldn't have prepared me for the awesomeness that Honeytree had in store. If it's your first time visiting, and you're thinking you want to try a few different flavors, I recommend taking a taxi or rideshare. Not only is it safer if you plan to drink, but parking nearby is PRICEY because it's right across the street from Basement East. The lot next to Haraz does offer the first hour of parking for free ... but Honeytree is so cool, you'll want to stay longer than one hour. Honeytree has a gorgeous and expansive patio out back with plenty of seating - and the inside is just as vibey. There's all sorts of space to spread out with your friends, and if you get hungry, Bad Luck Burger Club is permanently parked right outside. I've tried a handful of their offerings at this point, and it's hard to pick a favorite. If it's your first time, I recommend a flight, or asking your bartender for their recommendations! Prices aren't bad for a small pour, and there are plenty of other beverage options for anyone's taste or mood. They even have Maypop on tap, which is fun for non-alcoholic friends, or folks like me who just love sparkling water. You can even take a bottle to-go for around $20, which is a great gift, and way cooler than just bringing a bottle of regular wine to your friend's house. read more

Fantastic interior and exterior. You can either stay indoor or experience the patio. All the drinks were great. Service very good because they were very helpful in recommending drinks. We didn't get a chance to grab any food but we will back. Support this local establishment. Help save the bees. Learn about it when stop in. read more

I really wish we would have spent more time in this area. The honeytree meadery had such a relaxed vibe. Outside their front door were some firepits inside they had music and anime playing. The staff were absolutely wonderful and helpful at explaining all the notes that we would taste in the mead. My sister and I both ended up getting a trio to try! read more

Me and the man were about to leave to go back home to Memphis, but we checked out this cute little place because my bf LOVES mead. He's only had meridian hive so him trying this place gives him more knowledge about it. The interior is adorable and the server was helpful with a good attitude. My favorite was The Beast, which smelled strong but is sweet and smooth. The Lil' Batch had the perfect amount of fizz and pleasantly light in flavor. We took home a bottle of the basic batch. I had no idea meaderies existed and I'm damn happy that they do read more

I stopped at Bad Luck Burger and decided to try the Meadery. I've never had mead before, but really enjoyed trying it here. They have a great set up and ambiance, the staff is very helpful and friendly as well. I tried one of the seasonal flavors, apple pie, in my flight and it was amazing!! I'll be back here for sure. read more

Is this my new favorite spot? Quite possibly. So cute, and such a vibe for a plant lover! We were excited to see board games too, indoor and outdoor seating and just a welcoming environment made for a great experience. We got a flight to try a bunch of different things and the bartender was really helpful in offering suggestions and other drinks if Mead isn't your thing! Bad Luck Burger truck's permanent location is right in front so we grabbed some burgers too. They have trivia Sunday nights and street parking was easy to find! If you are looking for a chill place to hang out, play games, and just feel part of the community this is the spot for you! read more

The second I walked in to Honeytree, the cozy interior, vibey music and board game shelf told me I was going to love it! A very kind bartender, Lily (?) greeted my partner and I and gave us the rundown for our first visit. They told us about the mead and let us sample some, I don't have any experience with mead but we loved it! We each ordered a flight and settled in with a couple of board games to pass the time. If you don't love mead they also have a full bar for cocktails and other drinks! The outside patios looked very inviting as well. Apparently sometimes they have fire dancing on the back patio on Fridays, I'll have to be back to check it out! read more

This was my first time trying mead! It was SO good and I'm glad they had the flight option so I could try multiple.

This was a first for me! Mead is an alcoholic beverage made with honey! It was delicious! The minute we walked in, we were greeted by a passionate employee- I hate I didn't get his name as he deserves a huge shoutout. He was gracious to give us a brief history of Mead and sample a taste before we decided. I couldn't choose just one- so I went with a flight. I am already on the hunt for a NC place that makes Mead!! Honeybee magic! read more

Honeytree Meadery - three glasses of beer on a table - Meaderies Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Homey place with some great sips and bites! Went on a date here and it made it a perfect night. We stopped at the Bad Luck Burger food truck on the way in. While we waited for our buzzer to tell us our food was ready, we went inside to select some mead to sip on. I have never had mead before this point. When we went up to the bar, the sweetest server helped us out. Even gave us some samples so we knew what we were in store for. My date selected a glass and I selected a flight. Not only was the mead great! But honeytree has a variety of board games to play with inside while you wait, sip, and munch. If you're anything like us who enjoy a bit of competition, the board games solely will make you want to come back. Suggesting this place to anyone wanting to have a good time. read more

Honeytree Meadery - Back patio with firepit - Meaderies Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

This mead is so good, I bought 6 bottles to take back on my 5 hour plane ride from Nashville to San Francisco. I don't usually drink alcohol but mead is an exception because it's sweet and doesn't burn. Since the Bay Area doesn't have traditional mead (there's only 1 Meadery 1 hour away and they use a champagne refining process which leaves the mead sparkly, but not sweet), I spent $30 on Lyft to get to Honeytree Meadery when I was in Nashville for a conference. When I arrived, I was transported to an environment that reminded me of medieval tavern, but more modern and chique. I was immediately helped by some amazing guys who explained the various flavors they carried. When I arrived, they had 3 basic meads, and 3+ flavored meads but their website offers even more variety. The 3 basic ones were made from just yeast, honey, and water with differences in citrus notes and sweetness levels. The flavored ones included a ginger one, a fruity one (Bouquet), and a floral and more earthy bottle made with ryze mushrooms and local teas. There was also a unique bottle that I had to get- it's similar to mulled one and comes with a pack of spices that you add to your mead and you cook it together and drink it hot. Overall from the quality of the mead, to the outstanding service, the passion for their craft, and the beautiful interior decorations, everything was a 10/10. -IG: @hungry.hungry.helena read more

i wish i had something like this in jersey. first off, the branding is ON POINT here. props to that! the flow and theme of the honey bee and meadery follow throughout, its warm and welcoming too. very thoughtful design and creative. This isnt a place id come and kick back drinks and get wasted, for me its more about chilling and sipping. i love all the mead, but its an acquired taste for sure. that being said, i enjoyed every style i tried and can appreciate the experimentation in flavors. staff is so friendly and very helpful with many suggestions. ps there is a food truck outside. read more

Unassuming place with a very chill vibe. The owner is more than happy to explain Meade, their bees, the process, and their product improvements. (He's a fully-invested gregarious talker type! ) If you've never meade-d, do yourself a favor and plan to spend some time, first listening, then a little sampling, and sitting with a pour and savoring. And take a bottle with ya (we took two!). read more

The staff here know and love their stuff, and they make the experience TOTALLY worth it. We knew little about mead before coming here, but our bartender was all the more excited to tell us about their process, their meads/products, and letting us try a few samples before getting started. We had the flights and also ordered a few more pints afterwards, and it was all VERY delicious. The vibe is a little hipster (the only downside...), but even w/ that, it's still very welcoming and cozy on the inside w/ plenty of board games and places to sit. The back patio area has a campfire and plenty of picnic table seating. Taco truck on the outside is run by one guy and makes DELICIOUS tacos, tortas, etc. They go incredibly well w/ the mead and make it very easy to tuck in here for the whole night for food, drink, and conversation. A great date night location as well! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED if you're looking for a place to grab a drink w/ your friends tonight. read more

Great Meadery! Definitely worth the stop. I love the creativity in flavors. I purchased a flight (3 glasses) of basic batch, flower power, and "rei of sunshine?" Not sure what the name of the last one... it has rei in it though. The gin and tonic was nice as well; very refreshing. Loved the greenery of plants and fun games for your enjoyment. If you are not sure what to try, the bartender was helpful. read more

This was an awesome find on our trip. We managed to come up the weekend of one of the snow storms, and the more the 6 of us tried to find places to go, the more we found places closing up for the afternoon. We called Honeytree and Cameron said he was going to stay open so we made our way over. Man are we glad we did! Atmosphere here is awesome and Cameron is fantastic! He was more than happy to talk with us and even came over to our little seating area at one point and sat down with us. We were there for nearly 3 hours that evening and loved every minute of it. We will be back. Oh, and the mead is great too, you have to try The Beast! read more

Honeytree Meadery - Meaderies Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Although we are allowed to take our food inside when ordering from BLBC - if you're just there for the food (perhaps you don't drink for personal reasons) the bartenders will give you an attitude. And won't try to hide it. It's one thing if the food truck wasn't involved with the establishment, but you cannot have a food truck in your front yard and be upset when people come inside the doors to sit and eat. Drinking alcohol or not. Ambiance? Uncomfortable stares and dirty looks from the bartenders UNLESS they're on track for tip money from you. read more

Welcome to a wonderland that will transport you to a magical world right off of Woodland. You step inside and are greeted by plants, lights, and decor that was created with heart and soul. You can tell the owner of Honeytree believes in their product and wants you to have the whole experience. They are also a protector of the bees and who doesn't love that?? Okay, I know mead isn't your usual choice for a drink, but Honeytree Mead isn't your usual mead. It's light and they have a ton of options! You can drink it straight up, like wine, or you can mix it with Maypop, like a cocktail. I'm a big fan of the ginger mead, but I also love it mixed. The staff is wonderful and will talk you through all of the options. They have also partnered with Maypop and Alebrije. Tacos, mead, and Maypop for the non-drinkers, it's the trifecta! Look out for trivia night, comedy, and other happenings at the Meadery. On the off nights they have plenty of games, including mousetrap, to keep you busy. Midday trip? Perfect for the kiddos. Don't sleep on Honeytree Meadery! Trust me, you won't be disappointed. read more

A hard U-turn was made upon passing this joint on the way to dessert. You know that's some serious mead loving. We parked in the lot labelled for them next to an amazing Y'all wall art. The open space was very cool and filled with hanging plants & macrame. Two little pallet bench nooks and a raised section with a bar table & seating. We got flights of their signature, bouquet toss (hibiscus), and ginger. The signature was definitely the group fave. Most of the mead uses wildflower honey. The whole mead making operation is right behind the tasting counter and there's a great outdoor section with picnic tables & stoves. So glad we followed our honey drawn noses to this place. read more

Honeytree Meadery - Best back patio in East Nashville! - Meaderies Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Found this place by chance outside downtown Nashville. Beautiful place, atmosphere and people. The two bartenders were welcoming, patient and extremely knowledgeable on their mead. Their mead is not as "syrupy" as most, they use more water to help alter the taste and it's by far the best mead we have had in the US. The place is cute to boot! Honeybee prints/art all over plus honeycomb style wall shelves etc. the outdoor patio is beautiful and like a scene from a garden party, white lights, picnic tables, greenery. You can tell the owner(s) put a lot of heart and soul into this place. We tried a flight of mead and ended up taking a bottle home of their seasonal mead, which was a flower blend. We also tried their ginger, the "house" and now I can't remember the third, I didn't like it-tasted like wine. Worth a stop if you are a mead drinker or enjoy sitting outside having a nice glass of mead and a quiet-ish setting. I think they have love music throughout the week but I'm am unsure on the days, we were there on a Friday. Parking it's terrible, I think they had a small private lot to the side or there is some street parking or paid parking. Now go enjoy! read more

We hung out on their sofa and played board games while we waited for our dinner table. I'm definitely going back here and bringing more friends next time! read more
