    Chicken mac and cheese outstanding
    Nicole T.

    Great location. Small menu but everything sounded so good hard to pick. Seating on 2 levels. Enjoyed our dinner very local key spot casual dress. Food came out quick fresh and hot. Didn't know what to eat first. Sometimes you just have to have a salad the chicken was very fresh and had lots of flavor. I couldnt stop eating it. My husband had the Hot chicken/mac/cheese WOW thatvwas delicious and enough for 3 people to share. Glad we walked we had to work off the food. Great music. Would definitely recommend. A + amd 5 stars

    We had reservations for a large group but when we got there, there wasn't a table ready and we had to wait about 20 minutes. That was disappointing and not the best first impression. After being seated it took a while for a server to even come around, so also not the best sign. Luckily, once we did get a couple of servers, they were super wonderful and did an excellent job moving forward!! I ordered a burger on a gluten free bun (which made me so happy that they had one!!) and the burger was absolutely delicious!! The side salad with white vinaigrette was also sooo yummy! I ended up eating everything and was extremely pleased by the end of it all! We were seated upstairs and there was a gentleman playing live music, which was so lovely to have while eating dinner! I would definitely come back again for the food and ambiance! My only note would be to ensure a table is ready when someone places a reservation well in advance.

    A hidden gem tucked away off Broadway across from Category 10. Great small atmosphere. there may be a 10 or 15 minute wait but the service is great with a fast turn around. The food is always Great with many options. Cody our waiter was very personable having good fun with us. He offered up other options such as substitutions on sides. Our drinks never went below half. Thank You Cody.

    In town for CMA Fest , every restaurant is Bumping! Stopped in The Stillery and were seated quickly. Server was great, only wished I remembered his name. We ordered the Meatza pizza and macaroni and cheese. So good! In fact, it was so good we came back the. Ext day and ordered the exact same thing. That crust! Delicious. We will definitely be back

    We unfortunately got here late about 50mins before closing so our visit felt rushed. Our server was kind & quick though. My dad ordered a Long Island and it was soooo gross, the lime juice was bottled and tasted so bad so he ordered beer instead. The rest of the food was decent, i did love the Caesar salad a lil more than everything else. Food a lil pricey but hey, you're right in the heart of Nashville so i guess it's fair. 6/10 overall on the food Ps: the bathroom stank sooo bad like cat piss :/

    Easy spot near Broadway to grab a bite. The staff (including our waiter) all seemed to be having fun working there and were very nice. The food was as advertised. We chose downstairs seating to get a break from music but I think they have a band upstairs if you want that.

    Great food and service. I appreciate our waitress warning me about the Nashville Hot! It was hot, spicy, and I enjoyed it very much on the side. Thank you again for taking care of us!

    Great vibe ! Food is their focus - no live music but everything coming out of the kitchen looked amazing ! Wish I would've ordered those deviled eggs ! We were happy with our chicken sandwich and side of mac! Glad we ordered the spicy sauce on the side ! We are wimps ! The bartender was a sweetheart but I did witness her grab a wine goblet with a smudge of lipstick on it & she wiped it off with her sleeve - oh my ! She proceeded to make a drink ..... I wanted to say something but I didn't ! This is just such bad practice !

    Mac and Cheese
    Brian L.

    Had a really good time here at The Stillery. We ended up eating on the first floor where there was no live music since the line was shorter. There were plenty of tables and a bar section as well. The food came out pretty quickly despite it being around prime dinner time. The mac and cheese was fantastic and very rich. It had charred spots that gave certain bites a satisfying crunch, which blended nicely with the rest of the bowl. The pesto tomato pizza was much bigger than I expected. The crust was nicely done with just the right amount of char on the bottom. The pesto and tomato combination was fantastic.

    Mac n' Cheese Topped with Hot Chicken

    Great food, friendly service and conveniently located off Broadway! My group stopped in on a Tuesday night and were promptly seated as the place was not too busy. They have high and low top tables, bar seating and outdoor seating. We enjoyed the Cowboy Charcuterie which came with kielbasa and a jalapeno cheddar sausage, pickles, hunks of smoked cheddar and a half sleeve of saltine crackers. So simple but so good! I also ordered the Mac and cheese with a hot chicken topper. The Mac and cheese was so rich and flavorful and the chicken was perfectly crispy! Our server was also super friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our visit.

    While in the area we found this place. We were a party of 6. Got in early so no issue getting seated. Whyat was our server and he was great on taking care of us. We started with apps and drinks. We all had something different to eat and everyone enjoyed their meal. As the night went on the place filled up, so that tells you this is a good place. Its just off Broadway so easy to get to. Lots of options for everyone to choose from.

    Hot Chicken Sandwich Mac and Cheese

    Service was 5/5. Food was 4/5. The food looked amazing, but it all wasn't as good as it looked. We got the Caesar salad, it was good flavor, but not the best I've ever had. Also got the sweet potatoes and those probably were the best thing we ate there! Lastly, we got the hot chicken sandwich with a side of Mac and cheese. Mac and cheese was good, but the sandwich wasn't anything special. she asked me if I wanted regular spice or extra spice, and I picked the regular level of heat, and it felt like the spiciest thing I've ever ate. The chicken itself didn't seem that good. Kind of dry. There wasn't anything fancy about the sandwich other than it looked really good!

    Pretzel Bites
    Amy N.

    The Stillery absolutely blew me away. Some of the best pizza crust I've ever had...perfectly crunchy on the outside while still soft and chewy on the inside. We ordered the Aloha pizza, and it came with this incredible hot honey sauce. Their pizzas are perfect size for two people. Our waiter was kind and knowledgeable, which made the experience even better. There was plenty of seating, and we were seated right away. We also ordered the pretzel bites as an appetizer, and they were really good. This is seriously a top five pizza place of all time for me and my parents agreed! If you're a pizza lover, this spot is a must.

    Was "the stillery" just a misspell of distillery?

    I'm not sure of that, but they have stills, so it's definitely a play on Distillery. Either way, it was awesome. I would highly recommend it. Everyone was nice and friendly, and the food was great and affordable

    Is this same food as midtown location?

    Do they take reservations?

    On open table Or walk in while in town day before to check in person

    Do you take dinner reservations?

    Yes

    Do they take reservations?

    Yes

    Can you buy gift card? Our son is moving there and we want to get them some gift cards to downtown restaurants. If so - how does one go about purchasing one from out of state?

    Yes

    Any parking recommendations?

    Parking, especially Friday-Sunday is too rough. Highly recommend you valet park at a nearby hotel and walk over. I like the Holiday Inn Suites @Peabody & 4th Ave S. You will… 

    What are the hours?

    They close at 10:00 on the dot!

    Is there an option to not have hot chicken with the chicken dishes?

    Yes, get them NAKED with sauce on the side. Then you can dip a toe in the water and not jump in over your head.

    Can you eat at the bar if you can't get a reservation?

    I just visited today without a reservation and was able to get a table right away.

    Are their gluten free options?

    The menu is located online. I would assume yes because it's very popular but you should call to verify

    Are there any Vegan entrees?

    Yes, but not entirely healthy. Still delicious though

    Do they take reservations?

    Yes through Open Table

    Do they have a happy hour?

    How do they make the Hot Fried chicken on the mac and cheese? Was the chicken a cutlet or boneless breast?

    Boneless

    Do they do anything fun or cool for a birthday celebration?

    I would call or check website.

    Any vegan options or substitutions? I'm visiting from out of town, trying to plan a bday dinner with a vegan in the group.

    Some, but very limited. You might want to choose a different spot. Having said that, The Stillery is a great spot and still highly recommended.

    Do they have live music everyday? At certain hours?

    I have never seen live music at any OC location

    Which is the best location to go to for experience?

    What are you looking for? Music, food or both?

I'm 30 years old and have used this license without issue for years. When I asked what specifically was wrong with the ID, nobody could provide an explanation. Instead, staff consulted a manager and simply told me they would not be serving me. Meanwhile, the other members of my group, all around the same age and carrying valid IDs, were able to order drinks without issue. As an Asian customer, I left this establishment believing I was racially profiled. I was singled out, denied service despite presenting valid identification, and never given a legitimate explanation for why my ID was supposedly unacceptable. Since the incident, I have found multiple reviews from other customers of color describing experiences that raised similar concerns about profiling and disparate treatment. The entire experience was humiliating, unprofessional, and unacceptable. There are plenty of businesses in Nashville that can verify IDs without treating customers this way.

This historic building itself feels like a shotgun (long and narrow) and apparently once served as a Civil War warehouse and later the Sho-Bud Steel Guitar Company. To prolong our stay, we ordered cheeseburgers and beer (fries and onion rings were extra) for brunch. I tried to interest folks in their $6 "Recession Special" - A grilled or fried bologna sandwich piled high, with a bag of potato chips, a Moon Pie, and a cold Pabst Blue Ribbon (PBR) beer, but got no takers.

There was no live music available at the time, but they did have a DJ which I thought was spinning the turntable rather well. It's my bad that I didn't also catch on that his is basically a Tequila Bar, rather than a more general craft cocktail establishment. Judging by the well stocked bar and the word of our waitress, other alcohol and their associated craft creations are available, but it's pretty much off menu and not well into our waitress' repertoire. And yes, Cinco de Mayo was just a few days away. One member of our party just wanted a soft drink, which was not possible that night as their CO2 was down. That did make me wonder whether the non-alcohol drinkers had much to chose from here. I suppose we could have then wandered over to the Redemption Bar at Chief's? Anyway, we're not Tequila Drinkers, and since other drink options appeared to be guesswork, we left towards more traditional mixed drinks (and live music) at a nearby Printers Alley bar. This was a rare night that I really wanted a craft cocktail in a smooth environment, and in the end it just wasn't the same.

We paid for a table expecting a premium experience, but it honestly felt like we were taken advantage of. Our table had virtually no view because people were standing directly in front of us the entire time. We ended up paying for reserved seating that didn't provide any real benefit. On top of that, it was extremely hot inside with little to no air conditioning, making it uncomfortable to stay for very long. Service was also lacking. It was difficult to get a waitress to come by, and ordering drinks took much longer than it should have. Because of the heat, the lack of service, and the obstructed view, we asked if we could shorten our table reservation. Even though we weren't getting the experience we paid for, we were still told we had to meet the drink minimum. That was especially frustrating and for 4 gals, we paid nearly $400 for 2 hours. I was also celebrating my birthday, and they never came by with the birthday sign or made any type of acknowledgement of the celebration while other tables did receive that benefit. The one bright spot of the night was the DJ--he was pretty good and kept the energy up all evening. Unfortunately, great music alone wasn't enough to justify the cost of the table. I left feeling disappointed and wishing the overall experience had matched the price we paid.
