The best brunch spot for deals and meals in the abfab neighborhood of East Nashville. Killer Bloody Mary Bar, make your own, pickled okra !!, and an astonishingly good menu all of ew ideas for brunch
Food NetworkAugust 4, 2014Serious about mac and cheese. There are six "mad" variations on classic mac to choose from, including chicken pesto, a Cajun-spiced Mardi Gras mac and an over-the-top white truffle mac and cheese. Read more
Whitney WhiteApril 25, 2015CrabCake bennie, perfect with rosemary potatoes! Also the captains breakfast was great! However, the wait was horrible. It took about 35 minutes for our whole table to get our food and no apologies!
Sarah VaughnDecember 1, 2013Must try the brunch. The Bloody Mary bar with bacon infused vodka is fabulous. Friendly service and a great chill atmosphere.
Greg S.June 29, 2016We had a lovely brunch here. She loved her breakfast flatbread and my fancy ham sammich was great! Love the Bloody Mary bar!
Sofia PapastamelosJuly 3, 2016Great burgers and brunch! Go for the two for one brunch cocktails. Peach mimosa hits the spot.
Teisha AllisonJune 27, 2013Drink specials 2 for 1 margaritas and madteas. $0.49 wing night on Wednesday. Medium is definitely hotter than you think. Great place and great prices!
Mark MingroneSeptember 27, 2015Best kept secret for brunch. 2-4-1 Mimosas were nice but the build your own Bloody Mary was the best for me.
City SaverMarch 4, 2013Use your Nashville City Saver coupons here to receive a free lunch entree when a second is purchased or a free Saturday brunch entree when a second is also purchased.
Love the toasted green beans. Anything that says hot means that it is HOT! Gr8 brunch - 2 for 1 mimosas and a build your own bloody mary bar.
Kelly RMay 19, 2012Great brunch, burgers and Mac and cheese! Bloody Mary bar and two for one mimosas on the weekends. Love the drag queen bingo on Tuesday nights!- Whitney WhiteApril 25, 2015CrabCake bennie, great with rosemary potatoes! Also the captains breakfast was great. The service was horrible 30 mins from the time the 1st plate dropped. The server was rude and messed up our checks
- Sarah HurstMay 22, 2014The Chicken Pesto Mac was amazing and the drinks were good and not weak at all. Great atmosphere!
Nix JohnsonApril 30, 2013The Black Bean burger was phenomenal and I am still dreaming about the habanero Mac
Brooke McLeodJune 24, 2013Beware of going for dinner on the weekend. We went on a Saturday night and were told that brunch had "killed" their menu that day. Essentially they were out of everything that we wanted to order.
JuandaleJanuary 10, 2013$.49 Wingsday is the bomb. Be sure to request the wifi code, this place is built like a metal box.
Vicki HardinJuly 29, 2013This place is amazing! The spinach artichoke dip is the best I have ever had.- Kelly RJune 21, 2012Infused vodkas for bloody Mary's ... habanero, basil, bacon, jalapeño and cucumber...(cucumber is my fav so far)
José ColladoJune 14, 2013Do not shoot the Vodka of Doom all at once. Sip it. It can be done in 3 sips You'll thank me later.
Evan ROctober 28, 2012I think I just found my favorite restaurant. When they say "it's spicy" they REALLY mean it. :)
Amanda StokesDecember 16, 2012The waiter was really helpful, and the chili is amazing..great drink specials..def going back.
Rachel CAugust 3, 2015It took 30 minutes to cook a burger on their Specials menu. The "gluten free bun" is just Udi's bread, which falls apart as soon as you touch it. Overall, pretty mediocre.
What happened to this place? It's almost like going to Shoney's! The menu had changed and the service has not fared well either! There is better atmosphere at the Pied Piper!
Shannon G.October 18, 2015If you're Canadian and you would like to have a drink, do not go here. They won't accept your ID unless you want to carry your passport around (?!) I'd suggest Marche down the road instead.
Fabulous Brunch! Get captain crunch French toast or crab cakes eggs Benedict! Really great!
Josh GrossblattOctober 3, 2010Bloody Mary bar is fantastic. Great way to start your pre-football, Sunday morning.
Nashville GeeksJuly 6, 2010@fishwreck says: Best menu items are nachos with chicken, cheese grits, and sweet potato enchiladas. Read more
The ricotta stuffed chicken is amazing as are the French madtinis
The sweet potato enchiladas! - sounds strange but they remind me of Santa Fe NM
