Lovely rooftop located atop the gorgeous Hotel Noelle down the block from Printers Alley. Visited on a rainy sunday morning aroud noon and had the whole place to ourselves! In addition to the fact that they had just opened I think the rain kept people away.
Walking out of the elevator you enter a rectangular bar space in the center, surrounded by bar stools on all 4 sides. Walk straight through past the fancy restrooms to the outdoor seating and a view of the batman building and the rest of downtown Nashville. The outdoor section loops in a L and the longer side is separated from the left side of the rectangular bar by a glass partition. This side offers a view of Nissan stadium - home of the Tennessee Titans. Although it had stopped raining by the time we got her, the outdoor furniture was all soaked so we decided to sit at one of the multitude of barstools.
They offered an extensive array of craft cocktails based off a variety of liquors to suit every palate. Juleps seem to be their specialty so we started with those. Served in copper tumblers, the juleps were flavorful and packed quite a punch as you'd expect from $14+ dollar cocktails. Definitely worth the expense. I had the Nashville Julep made with Dickel 12 whiskey and loved it! Also tried the european standard old fashioned which was on point in a city with high standards for these kind of cocktails. Didn't try the snacks because had lunch reservations after. The were in the middle of a menu transition when we visited so a few of the cocktails were unavailable but I was very happy with the ones I got regardless.
Felt like our very own private rooftop experience. Can't beat that for a sunday afternoon. Would love to go back and check out the...
Read moreLet me preface this by saying I too work in the service industry so I understand how hectic working in a restaurant/bar can be, and I work in one of the busiest tourist cities in my state but It really takes an Absolutely terrible experience for me to write a review. I was at the bar with a couple girlfriends and they got served first, and as I waited for the bartender to take my order, he takes 20 minutes fumbling and going back-and-forth like he’s confused and scared of his job. Lanky boy, with a thin mustache and orange rimmed sunglasses. When he finally comes over, he proceeds to take the order of the girls that just walked up behind me, so I interrupted and let him know that I had been waiting first. It takes another 20 minutes to get My drink made, as he made the other girls drinks first, even though I had said, I was waiting before they had walked up. I watch him run to the back, come back, & flip a recipe card over several times Like he’s never made an espresso martini before in his life. And after I had Paid $17 for a cocktail My friends had already finished theirs, And mine was just thrown into a beer glass after being told, they had ran out of clean glassware. On top of that, there were dirty dishes And broken glass where we were sitting and there was no haste in trying to rectify anything to make our experience more pleasurable. It wasn’t even that busy, A group of 12 of us came in and found seating immediately. Absolutely Atrocious experience and now back from my trip, I just checked my bank account and see that they overcharged me so now I have to call to...
Read moreCute rooftop, no doubt about it. However I waited 45 minutes for a round of 3 drinks after I had paid for them already. I went up after 30 minutes to check on them and an employee said that her boss was making them as we speak. 15 minutes later, still no drinks so I approached again. At that time the employee said that her boss had just finished the drinks, so I waited.. just to watch him hand the drinks in his hand to someone else. At this point I asked for my money back and the employee said that she talked to her manager and that I would certainly get my money back on my card as the transaction was voided, since we did not ever receive our drinks. At this point in time (4 days later) my card has still been charged and I never received my refund on the card as promised. Had a much better experience in the basement at Hidden Bar and am jealous of anyone that has had a better experience than I...
