I love a good night out in Printers Alley: there's an English Pub called Alley Taps, a NOLA-style blues bar called Bourbon Street, and of course Skulls, a classy burlesque joint.

Here's the deal: if you're here for a Bachelorette or Bachelor party, you're probably coming here and people have probably told you that no one who lives here goes out on Broadway. That's only kinda true. No, Nashvillians don't typically want to meet their friends on Broadway after work, but we do like to tear it up sometimes, too! If you want to let loose and have a night dialed up to 11, it can't be beat. Embrace the live country and get after it! My personal fave spot is Robert's Western World.

If you're here for a Bachelorette party, you can go anywhere on Broadway and have a blast. If Broadway isn't typically your kinda vibe but you want to experience it-- in my opinion this is the only place to go. A super old school honky tonk with incredible live music.
