    Good place to go watch some drag and get fairly cheap drinks! Staff is nice and bar service is efficient.

    They were charging 25$ cover charge that's a little exorbitant. So I didn't get to go in. After that no way I recommend this Gay bar.

    I'm beyond disappointed in this club, as a queer person I have never felt so uncomfortable in a supposedly "queer friendly" space

    Good vibe, good food and a great stopping spot for a meal and drink…read more The server was friendly and attentive, told us about the free tasting at the bar after dinner, and made some recommendations. The smash burgers are delicious. After food, the tasting was fun. Part of the Tennessee Whiskey Trail.

    Food was typical/good. Service was slow & discombobulated…read more It happens. But I take real issue with their pet "friendly" claim. Maybe "pet tolerant", but not "friendly": - hostess was visibly & audibly afraid of dogs. We have two sweet chocolate labs, not exactly menacing creatures. Why in the world would you send a dog-fearing employee to get us seated? - we expected an offer of a water bowl for our pups. Nope. Had to find a server and ask for one. - the outdoor area we sat at is enclosed & gated. A door separates this outdoor area from the inside dining room. In spite of this, 10 minutes after being seated, a separate employee came out and simply said "do yall have leashes?" 1- of course we do, you saw us walk them in. 2- no greeting or "hey, I'm blah blah"... cold & impersonal. 3- why bother with the cost of a gated enclosure if pets have to be leashed anyway? We've been to many pet-friendly restaurants. You are NOT pet-friendly. You happily took our money for the meal, and added a 20% gratuity yourselves (which was not earned btw), but you barely did enough to accommodate our pups, let alone be considered "friendly". We didn't feel they were welcome, and certainly no "friendly" environment experienced. We won't be back. See how Calhouns defines "pet friendly". Y'all might learn something. To diners with pups: You want "pet friendly"? Skip this place.

What is special is it is just very laid back .. a place you can settle in .. and enjoy the atmosphere or truly amazing and talented entertainment that is offered. Many acts that play here go on to be be well known signed acts. I can't say enough about the quality of the live music in a nice, intimate place where you can truly appreciate and interact with the performers. Food is basic but well prepared .. don't expect knock your socks off but decent and filling. They have a really wide variety of beer -- something for everyone. Beer prices have remained low and very affordable over the years I have enjoyed Down Home. Also a great place to meet and talk to people in town. I have ended up sharing a table with strangers and a pitcher many times. So if you are new to town this is a great place to meet new people and just enjoy. Everyone needs to try this place with live music of a kind that you enjoy. It is hard to not feel right at home here!!!
