The Valentine. We walked past this spot on Broadway early in the day and saw a sign for a $10 beer and burger combo. If you've ever been to Broadway then you know what a freaking deal that is. We doubled back around 4pm on Saturday and went in to have said burger and beer combo. We ordered it up, one for each of us with an Ultra and a Coors Light respectively. The waitress brought the beers and about 10 minutes later she brought the burgers. These burgers are truly legit. Cooked perfectly, seasoned well with great condiments and a buttery delicious bun. So good that I ordered another beer and burger combo (don't worry, I took a shuttle bus from the hotel, so I could drink like a hillbilly in a holler.) The music was good inside The Valentine, the band was soliciting tips quite regularly which I get because they play on their own dime and aren't paid by the bar. That's a theme in Nashville obviously, it's about exposure. The staff was friendly; the beer was ice cold, the bathroom was clean and that burger was awesome. Stop into the Valentine, the high end superstar bars make enough money as it is. These diamonds in the rough are the spots to frequent. read more

We stop at this spot every time we're in Nash. Always great music, friendly staff, and a wee less crowded than some of the other more trendy bars on Broadway. read more

We stumbled into this place on a Saturday night in Nashville and had a great time. The DJ played a variety of hits for all. He kept the energy up. The drinks were okay but we were here for the music and were not disappointed. Check out The Valentine if you're ever on Broadway! read more

Probably my favorite spot from my night of bar hopping in Nashville! Loved the vibe of the place. The band was great on the night I went, they basically played covers all night long and took requests from everyone. The bar is two levels from what I remember. There's a spot on the second level where you can see the live entertainment playing. The drinks were great too! Reasonable in price and a pretty generous size. I think I stayed at this spot the longest out of the few bars I went to that night. They had a good amount of seating but I opted to stand for most of the night while watching the band play. The crowd on the second level wasn't too bad, in all honesty the ground level wasn't that bad either. I feel like this place is underrated. Would love to visit again when I'm in Nashville! Definitely recommend! read more

Probably my favorite place that we went to in Nashville. Smaller than most of the bars on Broadway it feels a little more "intimate" than the other bars around. The crowd was great with two bachelorette parties going on. Lots of energy in this place. We sat right in the front near the band (Stephen Paul Band). They were fantastic! They take suggestions (for a tip) and sound great doing anything from Waylon Jennings to CCR. They had a smaller selection of beers than the bigger places but the two I tried were local brews. My favorite was the Gerst Amber. Cold and smooth. We did not eat at this establishment so no rating on that but the bartenders were very friendly and knew a lot about the beer selection. Kudos to The Valentine! read more

I stopped here in the evening and this place was okay but didn't quite have the same vibe as some other places. Drinks were okay and prices were okay but the band just okay and the crowd wasn't especially into it. Service was friendly and I'd consider checking this place out again but I'd go elsewhere first. To be fair, might've been a different experience another night with a different band and a crowd with more energy. read more

Damn! This place sucks! Move on don't stop here Service sucks had to wait for ever like 30 minutes standing at the bar for drinks on a Sunday with nobody in there. Holy smokes they put no alcohol in the drinks had to pay for double shots and still weak. Prices were top dollar for the strip. Will not come here again. read more

Sunday afternoon vibe is very chill. Good music. Games playing on the tv, drinks and food service available. The staff will bring drinks/food to your table, or you can order directly at the bar. Give a tip to the band to request song. No cover to enter. read more

We loved the Valentine! Super fun, honky tonk with live music and great mimosa specials. The servers were very attentive, friendly. It was a very welcoming atmosphere. The only food we had was a basket of fries, and it was very good. They had brunch options. We went there twice because we enjoyed it so much. read more

I had an absolutely terrible experience at The Valentine in Nashville--so much so that I feel compelled to warn others. I was blatantly scammed by the bartender and what I believe was a fake "customer" running a con. First, I was forced to pay for my food before I even received anything--which was already a red flag. Then, some obnoxious guy who claimed to be a millionaire started bragging loudly and hitting on everyone in sight. He then told the bartender to order whatever I wanted on his tab, and the bartender "supposedly" removed my card from the system. I thought that was the end of it--until three days later, I found a $56.37 charge on my card. Keep in mind, I was alone, and I ordered one glass of wine and chicken tenders (which, by the way, were disgusting--I could barely finish one). To make matters worse, they had the audacity to add a $5 tip for themselves--on top of the fraudulent charge! Since February 26, I have been calling repeatedly to get this charge removed, and not a single person has bothered to return my calls. The complete lack of accountability and customer service only confirms that this place operates dishonestly. I truly believe this "millionaire" guy was a bad actor working with the staff to scam people. Given his behavior, he should have been thrown out immediately--he was harassing customers and the bartenders non-stop. But instead, he was encouraged to stick around and pull this stunt. This was a shady, unpleasant experience from start to finish. Avoid The Valentine at all costs. read more

By far our most favorite place on Broadway during our visit to Nashville. So nice we went there twice. The entertainment was by far the best we experienced, with Todd Cameron singing our first night, and Conner Sweeny the second night. Also the only place we visited that had carafes of ice water and cups along the edge of the bar. Smaller than some of the other places we visited, but the vibe was so amazing. Small dance floor up front, a small area upstairs open to the stage below. read more

I came here pre-Covid on a whim with my husband. We were waking down broad way and someone handed to two buy one get one free drinks cards. We're an easy sell so we head all the way up to the top. That one was one of the funnest bars we went to! It wasn't overly packed and the service was good and drinks were strong. I literally just figure out the name of this bar by the photo coordinates but alas, I loved you Valentine. Can't wait to come back. read more

The Valentine - Bars Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

A fun bar with different levels of music, most of it being live. The first two floors share the same music with another bar on the second floor, and the third floor has its own band and bar. The roof top has another bar, with a DJ and different music from the rest usually. Plenty of room for a dance floor. Tables and chairs to see the view from the rooftop as well! Staff is fast and drinks are pretty good! read more

This is my favorite bar on Broadway. No matter which floor you're on it's a blast. The rooftop has its own live music up there and they've got a Jenga game up there that is always being used. The bands are always so great and play all the hits. Drinks aren't too crazy overpriced. One of the best parts is the line is never that long! read more

Went to the Valentine and had the best experience with Lauren! So quick, sweet, and funny! Good job y'all. :)

After traveling all day from Charleston, we got downtown, and the bouncers immediately invited us inside. We were able to grab a table (no hostess) and our server came over quickly got our food and drink order. The food menu is very small , not many options as this is mostly a bar not restaurant. Got to listen to great music while we ate. Definitely a great place for a quick stop for a bite to eat ! read more

Stopped in today with friends to watch Conner Sweeny and had a great time! Julio was our bartender and made us feel welcomed. Took the time to give us food recs and made sure we always had a drink in our hand! read more

Really liked this bar. We stumbled upon it for lunch when looking on honky tonk row for a spot to catch some live music and eat some good food. The spot had the least amount of people waiting outside, so that's why we chose this spot. Glad we did, cause the food was really good and the drinks were decent too and pretty fairly priced. We ended up getting a few rounds of drinks, had a nice buzz, listened to the live band that was playing and ate some really surprisingly good bar food. The waitress was really good to and quick when we needed extra napkins, more food, and another round of drinks. Prob the best spot we went to when in Nashville. read more

We went to Dierks place first at about 6:30 on a Wednesday. The place was so loud and I couldn't get a person from the wait staff to acknowledge me so after 5 minutes I yelled in my wife's ear that we were leaving. I didn't know where we were going but I heard an acoustic guitar at The Valentine and thought we'd give it a try. Along with a couple of drinks, we got the chicken strips and the brussel sprouts, which were pretty good considering I hate vegetables. I like places like The Valentine so much more than Dierks or Kid Rocks' places because they aren't as loud and it's usually more country music. The nice thing about Nashville is if you don't like a place get up and walk 10 yards and find another place to try. All of the places are great. read more

The layout of this bar is pretty different from the other bars on Broadway. You can actually have some privacy and be able to talk to friends here versus the very rowdy ones. My friend Allie and I weren't going to come in originally but the bouncer was pretty persuasive so we decided to. Music was great here too! I would come back! read more

We stopped in because we saw a sign for "boozy lemonade slush." That was good and the Buffalo wings with homemade blue cheese dressing were outstanding. read more

In line with a lot of other reviews unfortunately, the experience with the bouncers was absolutely absurd, unnecessary and ridiculous. They man handled my sister and I, for using the men's bathroom while there was no one else in there and the ladies room was full. They called for backup like we had guns and were fighting everyone. It was so humiliating and I really hope management addresses these bouncer issues they seem to have, that are all over these reviews. Shame on them. read more

The only reason I am giving this place three stars is because I did not eat or drink in this facility. I was just curious to listen to all of the music that was flowing from inside this establishment. If I remember right, our hands were stamped once we showed our license to verify that we were over 21 years of age. Since it was our first time in Nashville, we wanted to experience as many establishments as we could in one night, so we did not stay extremely long. The stage was towards the front, near the windows that were near the street. There was a large bar towards the back of the restaurant. It was standing room only, as most people stood between the bar and the stage to watch the musicians. They did have a large set of stairs to the left of the building that led upstairs. Like I said, we only stayed for a little bit, but the musicians were really good! read more

The music was fantastic and the atmosphere was much less crazy than many of the bars. Was the perfect place for our group looking to get away from most of the rowdy crowds in the bars on broadway. Didn't make it to the rooftop, but did make it to the third story where a second band was playing and the bar was wide open to get drinks quickly. read more

Came to Nashville and hung out here for hours... because of the music. There were some amazing bands playing & we didn't want to leave & they had a booth that seated our group of 8, which is difficult to find. However, the staff left a lot to be desired. They were quite inattentive and several had attitudes that weren't warranted. We were the only table the staff DIDN'T wait on. We had to go get our drinks at the bar, while other table got waited on. They would literally walk by us like we weren't even there. The place was cool enough, drinks were Broadway priced, the bathrooms could use some updating like real locks and dispensers that worked but whatever. It is what it is. read more

Much like the other reviews... the service/staff were rude, unhelpful, and not knowledgeable. Went here for a bachelorette party where we booked a table on the roof. However, once we arrived we were taken to a dark booth on the second floor in a corner. No view of live music & also not what we paid for. We told the bartender and manager that this is not what we paid for, we even showed the email exchange where we booked the roof. He was extremely condescending and offered no customer service or solution. We ordered a bottle anyways since we already prepaid with no refund options - the bartender quoted us for a bottle and was completely wrong on the price. It was way more than she stated. After all this, we barely drank anything and left because it was so boring being in a dark corner with poor/extremely slow service. If you are thinking about booking a table here - SAVE YOUR MONEY! not fun and not worth the hassle. There are plenty of other fun bars on broadway with staff that appreciate ppl who spend money. read more

Cool vibe and even cooler staff. Had the pleasure of chatting with Lauren, one of the bartenders who is like sunshine in human form. Definitely will be going back read more

Walking down Broadway, my friends and I heard the band coming from here and were immediately pulled in by the music that was playing! As we walked in we sat at the bar and we were greeted by a beautiful young lady named Lauren. She served us fast, drinks were amazing and she made us Laugh the whole time! So happy we stopped into the valentine, first visit was amazing and we will be back whenever Lauren is working! read more

Great space and band on a Thursday evening. Bartenders were quick and helpful. Great selection of whiskies and bourbons, yet their mixed drinks seemed super tiny for 11-14 a piece. Found a blantons for 18. Band was mixed on a Behringer x32, lol i was hoping that a town like this known for its music would not have low end gear. Really distorted and coloured up the band and sound which was a shame. D-live, sd9, or a Advantis, anything to get ride of the x32 pres. help the sound guy out a little! read more

Had so much fun me and the hubby got some drinks from here and eat pizza listen to some live music and danced it was a lot of fun the bartender was very friendly and the pizza was delicious I have never had Brooklyn style pizza so it was my first time and it was really good it wasn't dry it wasn't hard it was perfect me and my husband each got pizza he got the pepperoni pizza and it came with an abundant amount of pepperoni and I got the cheese pizza read more

they treat singles like 2nd class citizens even though I guarantee I tip better than these so called parties. They tried to stick me in a back corner. I was told to go to 2nd floor, which I did. I Was accosted & told "you have to go back & sit at bar. That's what he told you" was their story. I said NO he did NOT, I said "he told me to go to 2ndfloor which I did" Then the bar tender copped an attitude saying well you are by yourself , you can't sit there. F them, not a dime more & SINCE WHEN ARE WE DISCRIMINATING SINGLE WOMEN? Shame on y'all read more

I went to Nashville with a group of 8 people and every single one of us absolutely loved this bar. We came back each night and even spent a ton of time during the day here. The talent they book is incredible and it's so fun that each floor has a different vibe every day. The food is bar food, but pretty good overall. If you get the nachos, either get chips or ask them to make the tots extra crispy. We loved the tots nachos but our tots were kind of soggy. For drinks, just get buckets. It's easy and makes more sense $ wise. read more

I'm gonna be plain honest - I'm really not a fan of country music/honky tonks. When I stepped out onto Broadway, I tried to listen for a place that wasn't playing country music, and wasn't too crowded. I stumbled across The Valentine. The building has really lovely architecture, from the prohibition era. I caught Steve Cunningham and the Cunninghams, a good cover band. They played Prince, Journey, Jackson 5, Queen, and more. I got myself an Angry Orchard cider and swayed along. There are people of all ages there having a good time dancing. It was one of the few venues that didn't get too crazy on Friday evening, and I appreciated it. Staff was very pleasant. Do stop by if you get a chance. read more
