    Garlic Knockers
    Samantha C.

    Great beer, great food! TailGate Brewery did not disappoint! The local beers were all phenomenal. The staff were very kind and knowledgeable and made great recommendations. The Garlic Knockers can't be missed! Was also a fan of the whipped ricotta pizza. The small size is the perfect portion for an individual. And don't let the weather fool you, the patio space is fantastic even in the colder months.

    The service at Tailgate Brewing was absolutely amazing!! We appreciated that the bar staff took the time to explain the different beers and drinks to our group. Also, they offer table service even on the outside patio. What was really amazing is the server heard me say my phone was dead and she offered to charge it for me. Wow, I was so impressed. Without a phone in Nashville you are pretty much dead in the water. She saved the day! Regarding the drinks, I was looking for something non-alcoholic and decided on the cotton candy dirty soda. It was good, but needed more cotton candy flavor. The outside patio is absolutely amazing with non covered and covered seating. We enjoyed sitting in the sunshine and watching the big screen TV.

    We came in here to simply get a T-shirt and behold, I now dream about their beer as I returned home to another state. Honestly, I'm not even really a beer person but their Orangu Tang Sour was the best craft beer I've ever tried. Their taster pours were pretty much 3/4 of a full glass and every one we chose was outstanding! I pray one day they would make this available in Colorado. We bought some beer to take back to our hotel room as well. Additionally, the staff were so kind and helpful answering all our questions and making great recommendations. My only regret is that I didn't try the pizza however, every one that I stalked on other peoples table looked outstanding and made me slightly jealous!

    This place was easy to find and easy to park on a Monday night, but I can imagine on busy nights that isn't the case. There is a small parking light right in the side of it which you have to pay by the hour ($9.25 an hour) and it's immediately out of a traffic circle. You walk in and seat yourself and then order at the bar and they bring you your food. They have some good beers available and fun drinks if you get there early enough but we got there at 8 pm and they were out of all martinis which was a little weird. So we got beer and a mimosa. Both were decent. We got the Tennessee golden ale and something like a triple hazy IPA and they were both good. As for pizza you can get pretty much any kind of pizza but they also have specialty pizzas with set toppings which are delicious sounding. We ordered a meat lovers, the birria pizza, and a pineapple and hot honey pizza. They were all good but not out of this world. The meat lovers was good, would order again- had Canadian bacon, bacon, sausage slices, and pepperoni on it. The birria was also good, unique, had birria, cilantro, and lime on it with birria sauce on the side. It was good but not sure if I would order it again. The pineapple and hot honey was good but really heavy on the honey. Oh we also got appetizers, onion rings and pretzel bites. Both were A+! The prices were okay -nothing not expected at craft pizza place - A little high though and you have to pay for anything extra you can think of. You have to pay for red pepper and ranch and Parmesan which I personally find annoying but I get because some people get crazy with them. All in all I wouldn't come back alone or with m family I don't think but if someone else invited me I would eat here. (I'm from out of town though so take this with a grain of salt)

    This was my last stop on visiting all of the local Tailgate locations and giving them 5 stars cause I love them. This place is small but nice. As usual, the staff was lovely, the beer tasty, and the pizza absolutely the best. Now I will say one thing that disappointed me. I specifically asked if there was trivia that night and was told yep, at 7. So we ordered our food and patiently waited. And waited. And waited. Realized it was past 7 and no sign of trivia. There had been a storm just a couple hours before so I thought maybe it was cancelled after all? Hubby mentioned it when he paid our tab. NOPE. The trivia is played out in the other patio room. WHAT? No one told me this. No signs, no info, no announcements nothing. I was really sad to miss it because we had planned our night for that in particular. Sooo if you're wanting trivia, go outside. With that sad little bit out of the way, we still love you Tailgate.

    Garlic Knockers

    Another Nashville staple that mostly lives up to the hype. Not a beer person but the pizza was calling my name. Crust is perfectly golden while being chewy and crisp at the same time. The sausage and pepperoni both had unique flavors that were delicious. I did find the sauce to be pretty bland which is disappointing. The garlic knockers were also delicious, though definitely pricey. Overall a good time and a chill environment

    Great tap room with top notch pizza and so many screens to watch any sport imaginable. Staff here is friendly and make sure to join the mug club if you come here often!

    Hot honey Chicken pizza
    Kevin B.

    Highly recommended this place. The pizza that we had was amazing. Honestly one of the best pizzas we have ever had. Perfect mix of flavors. We had the "hot honey" pizza but substituted the sausage for hot chicken. It was amazing. The other people with us had the "whipped ricotta" pizza and they loved theirs too. Great selection of beers on tap. The vibe of the place was cool and fun.

    Quality/Quantity - For a brewery in a "tourist" area, it sure felt like home here. Sports day today; the 49ers played and lost... Tried a few tasters and settled on a Session IPA. My daughter got a Sounds Strawberry Lemonade Shady. She could not finish it, so I had to help her. It was actually not bad, but still not my type of drink as it was a cider or sour. Atmosphere - "Two" floors. Main floor - Indoors with TVs all around, sports bar! Second floor = outdoor patio, also some BIG screen TVs, see pictures. What a cool spot to hang out, or at least finish our night. Well, after they closed at 9pm, we walked down the block to check out all the other MANY bars/clubs. Many promotions and discounts, see all my pictures. Service - 5 stars, welcoming and patient. Price - $15 + generous tip. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 2014 and with your 8 locations. This is the second or 3rd location we have now been to.

    Boneless buffalo wings and blue cheese
    Ronald N.

    Great selection of beer. We had some great hazy IPA's! DDH and Home Run were excellent. We shared a Nashville hot chicken sandwich and boneless buffalo wings. After a few bite of the sandwich my mouth was really burning, but it was worth it! Wings were calmer and great with the blue cheese dip.

    Cider & beer flight
    Breanna S.

    My bf & I are visiting Nashville for the first time & this was our first stop! Very close to our hotel so we took a quick scooter ride over on a Friday afternoon. It had a local vibe to it & I love that. We both ordered a flight - mine was a cider flight & my bf's was a beer flight. My bf also asked the bartender to pick the beers for him (the menu was overwhelming!) We also ordered a "make your own" pizza - Detroit style with pepperoni, jalapeños, & extra cheese. 1 Cider flight - I ordered all 4 ciders that were offered - Tailgate cider, blueberry cider, raspberry cider, & pumpkin pie cider (seasonal). My favorite was definitely the Tailgate cider! I wasn't a huge fan of the other 3 but I'm still glad I tried it all, so I know what to order next time. 2. Beer flight - My bf got Dragon's Gold, ruby grapefruit, Adoption ale (I think?), & pumpkin roll. His favorite was Dragon's Gold! 3. Detroit pizza - This was DELICIOUS!! I wish they did not add the extra marinara sauce on top, as I feel it took away from the rest of the pizza, but we just wiped it off so not a big deal! Definitely a great first stop!

    I built my own pickle pizza by adding chicken and hot honey drizzle with a ranch base...try it you won't be sorry
    Wendy L.

    Some of the best food and staff in Nashville! Everyone is so friendly and the food is fantastic!

    $25 for 6 slices....absolutely diabolical we didn't even have meat on a slice i'm confused does it come with a side of lifetime happiness??

It was close enough that we walked. If you're curious about who we saw at this 560-person venue, you will have to go to my IG. I got a few reels. IG is also the only place you can reach me now. FB, TT, X, website, and email are all out. I do have a secret email but it's most definitely not the one tied to this account--that one is inactive. I only mention how to contact me because the number of people reading these reviews exceeds the number of readers for my books. That's a lot of exposure. So, it's possible someone would say, "We want that mfer!" But therein lies the problem. I misbehave while being incredibly reliable. Anyway, about that pizza.... If you look carefully at the photo, you will see the slice of pepperoni in the background. My son told me it was the best slice of pizza he has ever eaten. And that's a lot of pizza. In fact, he has taken a photo of every slice of pizza he has ever consumed and posted all of them on his 'Pizza Wall.' His theory is that pizza always puts him in a good mood, so why not always be looking at pizza. Okay, none of that is true, except for the part that he said it was the best pizza he ever had. My slice was very good but I don't know about all that. It seems to be a common theme at Five Points East though. Therefore, go for it! Our server, Annie, was excellent. And very efficient at her job. As for atmosphere, pretty cool! Small but cool. And I actually like that they don't have Italian food and stick to their speciality. Also, there is a small bar in the back. Highly Recommended!

This time, we switched things up and hit it for lunch instead. Good call. We grabbed seats at the bar, where Todd was holding down the fort. The guy was outstanding. Drinks never sat empty, food came out smoothly, and he somehow managed to be attentive without hovering over us every five minutes asking if everything was okay. My wife started with the Nashville Margue, which goes down way too easy for something packing moonshine. Light, refreshing, and carrying enough kick to remind you you're in Tennessee. Then Todd introduced us to a Bloody Mary made with a new pickle-infused vodka. Now, that sounds like one of those ideas that should either be amazing or a complete disaster. Turns out it's amazing. My wife loved it so much she's already talking about coming back tomorrow for another one. For food, we started with the pretzels and beer cheese. Simple. Warm. Soft. Salty. Exactly what you want while settling into a Nashville afternoon. Nothing fancy, just done right. Then I went all in on the mac and cheese topped with Nashville hot chicken. Yee Haw. Creamy mac and cheese. Crispy chicken. That signature Nashville heat. Comfort food with a little attitude. Just the way it should be. The best thing about The Stillery is that it knows exactly what it is. Good food. Good drinks. Good people. No gimmicks. No trying too hard. Just a fun place to sit down, relax, and enjoy yourself.

The spot is in an old building in the middle of the entertainment district (Lower Broad area). It has a small outside seating area, for when it is not a sauna, Inside there is a nice sized bar, if you are just seeking a drink. They are known for their mac & cheese, which I have never tried in all of the times I have been to the Stillery. Very creamy, cheesy mac & cheese. The Nashville hot chicken has a nice spice to it. A bit mild for the serious hot chicken fans, but the flavor is there. The chicken tenders are fairly standard. And the crinkle fries are mid. I enjoyed both of the drinks. At $14.50, they are at least $1.50 less than the standard Broadway cocktails in the star bars, so iti s a less expensive option to get a drink. I don't think they ever have live music, unlike some others here, so you are going for the food, not the noise. Service was great, as always. The staff is always prompt and knows their menu. It is more bar food and the menu is limited, but what they do, they do well.

    I've been to Dicey's countless of times. Love the pizza. They finally put the Hawaiian pizza…read morepermanently on the menu (TY!!!). Veggie supreme is amazing, too. And my all time favorite is the little gem salad with the roasted cauliflowers and kettle chips. I always order this. Skip the sandwiches, though. But yes, I do agree with other reviewers that service has gone down a LOT. And it's inconsistent. On separate occasions, I've been seated without a full party and I've been told that the full party needs to be present before we can get a table (when more than half the restaurant is empty). Some of the servers look like they don't want to be there. It's hard to flag them down if you need something (silverware, napkins, more water).

    I've wanted to try Dicey's for a while and was pleasantly surprised once I finally did…read more The biggest challenge was actually getting there. It's located in a cool part of Nashville, but between limited parking and ongoing construction in the area, access can be tricky. I ended up ordering takeout just to make it work. The pizza itself was solid. It had a great fire-roasted bottom that gave it an authentic, slightly charred flavor. My guest ordered a pineapple pizza, and I built my own -- both had strong foundations with good crust and sauce. The base of the pie is clearly well executed. That said, I did wish the toppings felt a bit fresher and offered a little more variety. While it's definitely a step up from a typical by-the-slice spot, it didn't quite feel like a "gather a big group just for this" destination either. Overall, a good pizza with a strong crust and flavor profile -- just be prepared for the logistics of getting there.

This was on a Thursday afternoon (Lunch Time) and they do have lunch specials, and it was a pack joint. Prices were right and affordable and the portion was huge! I placed the order online via toast and the food was ready in 30 minutes, I didn't think much of it since I wasn't that hungry but when I picked up the order and headed back upstairs, ya'll the calzone and pasta were MASSIVE. My bestie and I, share the food and had leftover for the next day and don't get me started on the ranch, worth the two dollar for extra sauce. If I do come back here next time, I'm getting their wings and extra ranch. Overall, the USA! Calzone which consist of mushroom, bell peppers and pepperoni and of course mozarella cheese, it was so damn good and perfect seasoning. (Yes, I ate the pizza with ranch) Now the kid's meal, what I thought of just a small pasta and a side of fries, came out to be a WHOLE FULL MEAL and the pasta was one of the best pasta I ever ate, it was creamy and the choice of adding bacon bites just hit. (Perfect to carb up before a night of drinking) it came with two pieces of garlic bread too. The fries were okay, dipping that into ranch help. Main star where the calzone and the pasta for the order.

We shared a dish of the Z.Z. Tots, which were top-notch with the homemade sriracha aioli. We each ordered a 10" pizza: my wife got "the roni," and for myself, I ordered "The Stallion." The crust was perfect, the toppings were fresh and delicious. If I'm ever in the area again, I will be back.

    Came here for a date night with my husband a couple of years ago, and being back again made me…read morerealize I've been missing out by not returning sooner. I loved the DJ on the second floor, and I'm still impressed that they have two bars--we didn't even make it upstairs the first time we came. I'm definitely coming back to check out the rooftop next time, especially since it was pretty cold during this event and I didn't get the full experience. The games are a blast, the drinks are great, and the pizza... wow. So good! I grabbed mine to go, and it was still amazing the next day for lunch, super fresh and still full of flavor. From the moment we walked in, the staff was welcoming and genuinely kind. Already excited for my next visit!

You pay for tokens (not expensive) and get to choose from 80+ nostalgic arcade games like Pac-Man, Street Fighter, Galaga...all the classics. They also have Mario Kart on Nintendo 64 (no tokens needed!), plus skee-ball, basketball hoops, pinball, and more. The staff makes Up-Down even better. Everyone greeted us with smiles, and the bar staff and bouncer went above and beyond to help me track down my lost phone (thanks again!!). There are two levels (each with its own bar), and the upstairs, dog-friendly patio has cabanas with fireplaces. It's also in the perfect spot for hopping to other great bars nearby. This place is 10/10: cheap beer, fun games, and an all-around solid night out!

    This pizza is spot on. I tried it for the first time a couple weeks ago. I was so impressed that I…read morewent back yesterday. We ordered a supreme pizza on the first visit. First of all, the crust is so thin and crispy. Just delicious. The pizza slices are huge. We ate on the pizza all night. We chose to eat in and while we were waiting the employee....maybe the owner...gave us another slice to try....vodka sauce with pancetta and basil. OmG. I almost wished I would have ordered that instead. I am a supreme, pepperoni, oe sausage and pepperoni girl but that made me rethink my life choices. So of course the next visit I ordered the vodka pizza. I was a little nervous because the other worker was not there and I wanted it to taste the same. Well, I was not disappointed. It was just as good as the first. This place will definitely be in my rotation. Ok Five Points...I may have a new number 1.

For an app, we had the burrata with their signature olive oil and sea salt. It was fantastic! For dinner, we all split the cavatelli, duck ragu, and the agnolotti. All were good, however, the cavatelli was by far my favorite. The hot sausage and brown butter sauce were super unique! We ended the night with their tiramisu, which was a traditional take on the dish. The whole table enjoyed it. Great spot for a casual Italian spot in East!
