There’s a certain magic that comes with the opening of a new bar in Nashville, especially one tied to a country superstar like Morgan Wallen. The debut of Wallen’s “This Bar & Tennessee Kitchen” brings a fresh buzz to Broadway.
This Bar, on 4th Avenue North beside the iconic Ryman Auditorium, swung its doors open on Saturday, June 8, 2024. As Backstage Country tells us, this venue is a sprawling 30,000-square-foot marvel, complete with an open rooftop, six bars, three live music stages, and a gift shop filled with exclusive Morgan Wallen merchandise. Initially set to open over Memorial Day weekend, the grand reveal was postponed to perfect every detail, ensuring that every corner of This Bar tells a story worth sharing.
Morgan Wallen’s vision for This Bar is a heartfelt tribute to his Tennessee roots and the fans who’ve embraced his music. According to Morgan Wallen's bar website, the menu, crafted with the expertise of Chef Tomasz Wosiak, features southern delights, bar bites, and some of Mama Wallen’s cherished recipes.
This isn’t just another bar on Broadway; it’s an immersive experience. From childhood photos and memorabilia to nods to Wallen’s most memorable performances, every inch of this venue reflects his journey from an East Tennessee boy to a country music sensation. As Wallen himself puts it, “I sing about finding myself in ‘this bar,' and now it's coming to life.”
Live music is the heartbeat of This Bar. As The Tennessean reports, the venue boasts three stages, ensuring that the music never stops. Whether you’re a die-hard Morgan Wallen fan or just a lover of good tunes, you’re bound to find yourself tapping your feet and maybe even singing along.
Grant Burlingame, vice president of operations at TC Restaurant Group, couldn’t hide his excitement when speaking to Billboard. “This venue has been a labor of love for us and Morgan. His fans and music lovers alike will love the experiences they will find at This Bar. We’re proud to open its doors.” TC Restaurant Group, known for other celebrity spots like Luke Bryan’s Luke’s 32 Bridge and Jason Aldean’s Kitchen + Rooftop Bar, has truly outdone themselves with This Bar.
