Skyline 500 Bar — Restaurant in Clarksville

Thursday was our first time visiting the rooftop bar at the Shelby Trio. After visiting a couple of other spots in downtown Clarksville, we decided we decided on a nightcap at the Skyline 500. When we got there around 9pm there were only 8 other customers there. I love the layout and design of the inside area, with the bar being right as you enter after getting off of the elevator. A security person and one bartender were the only employees there, and they were both quite nice. As a huge fan of outside and rooftop bars there were 3 things that kept this getting 5 stars. 1 - The alcohol and beer selections were quite limited. I did expect more options from an upscale establishment. 2 - The outdoor area was definitely smaller than I expected. It's not tiny by any means, but assumed there would be more outside seating to enjoy the great rooftop views. 3 - There is no bar access on the outside rooftop. You have to go back inside, to the opposite side of the bar, to get additional drinks. Perhaps on busier nights there are servers so you can remain outside. Other than that, I enjoyed my visit and love the Shelby's Trio concept....

We’ve been coming to the rooftop for the past year for Wednesday night trivia and absolutely love it. HOWEVER, the menu has taken a serious down turn. Not really any good options on there anymore that we really enjoy. Got the lettuce wraps tonight. Very first thought, looked like cat throw up. Decided to give it a try, and I feel as if that’s exactly what cat throw up tastes like. Really disappointed in that. Turns out the chicken is blended (would be good if it was just a cut up grilled chicken breast). Spoke to the manager, and he of course offered us something else which was nice. Please, I beg, take the wraps off the menu. We also got the pulled pork BBQ Nachos, and those were fine at best. Great idea but the execution wasn’t all that. Adding more meat would be a huge start. No issues at all with the service, drinks, atmosphere etc, that’s all great. If they could get back to even 50% of the old menu, I’d be ecstatic. Likely will only be ordering food to-go from downstairs...
