    This place has something for everyone. A great cocktail menu, a bocce court, indoor and outdoor dining, dipping pools alongside a bowling lanes you can rent by the hour. Call ahead for lane status.

    Housed within its 13,000 square feet is breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner, craft cocktails, along with bowling, karaoke and ample meeting space, making it a truly unique vision.

    The Reuben Benedict was like nothing I have ever had in my life! Amazing brunch options and a damn fine Bloody Mary. Be sure to pop in for a quick bowl after brunch!

    Great place to eat, get work done & enjoy coffee that comes with simple sugars made from natural sugar (xylitol) & another made from raw sugar (Demerara). Definitely coming back to enjoy night life

    To quote the missus “I loved everything” Great space, great food, good service. Egg sandwich was munch,lovely Avo toast, Brussel salad, even the fries were good. Judge a place by its fries I say.

    Pickled shrimp toast is a must have and seasonally-inspired cocktails are very unique. Crema Coffee Roasters outpost is also here, so you can roll from daytime to happy hour seamlessly. Love it here.

    Awesome food - seriously, everything was stellar! We shared the family style fried chicken, pork belly wedge salad, fried broccoli, and things on toast...way more food than 4 of us could eat.

    Really cute place but hard to get seating unless you make reservations...same with lanes. Definitely reserve in advance. If you don't, this place is too isolated to just stop by and take your chances

    Can't really go wrong with any of the brunch items. The peaches with burrata, pot roast hash, and buckwheat waffles with apple butter are especially creative dishes that hit the mark.

    The best way to describe it is a hipster country club; so in other words, I love it. Cocktails, third wave coffee, bocce ball and bowling. Also, it's an Instagrammer's dream.

    Have a reservation for the evening or brunch. Pool isn't finished as of 7/1/14. Great place to take out of town guests or native Nashvillians. Awesome experience in general.

    Really good (although slightly expensive) cocktails. Sadly, the food is also expensive but doesn't deliver. Come here for a nice drink, eat elsewhere. Great atmosphere and beautiful building!

    I'm actually not a huge fan of this place, but I seem to be in the 20% on that. I don't come here on my own but enjoy it well enough when friends suggest it. The CREMA coffee/espresso helps a lot.

    The Diamond in the Rough cocktail is the second best drink in Nashville. Pinewood isn't crawling w/ hipsters like people say - it's just expensive. Sweetbreads = A+ Burger = C Shandy = B+

    The hummus is ridiculously good. There’s dried chickpeas and pine nuts on top and Chile oil mixed in. They’ll also do veggies instead of pita.
