Nashville isn't just about country music and honky-tonks. Some of the city's best experiences hide behind unassuming doors, waiting for the curious to explore.
From secret cocktail lounges to creatively themed bars, these hidden gems offer unforgettable nights out in Music City.

Noelle Hotel
Ever heard of a bar so secret you might walk right past it? The Noelle Hotel's Hidden Bar isn't just tucked away—it's practically invisible. To find it, head to the basement. Keep an eye out for a door with a two-way mirror. Looks ordinary enough, right? Step through, and you'll discover a themed lounge with an entryway so cool, it'll have you reaching for your phone.
But it gets even better. The Hidden Bar recently introduced The Overlook, Room 237—a mysterious, dimly lit space behind a storage unit door. Picture an eerie vibe, spirited cocktails, and bites so good you won't mind the occasional chill down your spine.

Bobby Hotel
Bobby Hotel, located in downtown Nashville, offers a distinctive blend of art, history, and modern amenities.
Bobby Hotel's rooftop lounge offers a standout speakeasy experience inside a retrofitted 1956 Greyhound bus craned onto the building. This creative cocktail space provides panoramic skyline views while blending nostalgia with modern flair. For a more intimate, edgy vibe, Bobby's Garage Bar, tucked away in Printers Alley, channels a vintage garage theme with car parts, neon signs, and a retractable stage lit by car headlights for live music performances.

Virgin Hotels Nashville
The Late Great at Virgin Hotels Nashville takes you back to the heart of classic country music. Tucked below the hotel, this cozy speakeasy is packed with personality—think folk art, old family photos, and artifacts that feel straight out of the '70s music scene.
The design? It's a nod to the “B rooms” of Nashville's recording studios, the laid-back spaces where artists would unwind between sessions. The drinks? Bold, creative, and perfect for sipping while you take in the atmosphere.

Dream Nashville
For a mix of music and craft drinks, Snitch inside Dream Nashville is where you want to be. Located in the heart of Printer's Alley, Snitch stays true to the speakeasy spirit—low lighting, rich wood, and a sound system that keeps the vibe just right.
Expect local beers that rotate monthly, along with live music on the weekends. It's intimate, energetic, and ideal for a laid-back night out with friends.

Union Station Nashville Yards
While not exactly a speakeasy, the Union Station Nashville Yards offers a cocktail experience just as memorable. ERGO, located in the hotel lobby, mixes classic elegance with modern flair.
The menu? Expect everything from creative signature cocktails to local draft beers and fine wines. Whether you're winding down or celebrating, ERGO’s sophisticated setting makes every drink feel special.
