This softly lit, chandelier-bedecked gem attracts many an in-town celebrity looking to booze it up in a mellow atmosphere. There is an Old Fashioned here made with bacon-infused bourbon . Read more

James

Choice ambiance and obsessively crafted cocktails . What's not to love. I personally recommend the bacon infused Old Fashioned .

Dave Ge

Worth the wait and is nice that you can put yourself on a waiting list. Bartenders were really nice and knowledgeable . The ham and pesto dish was great!

Polina Weitz

This is one of the best cocktail bars I've been to in Nashville. Drinks were phenomenal, service was great, and the library design is gorgeous. Make reservations !

cami j.

this place is beautiful, and the staff is friendly and helpful! feel free to ask questions; there’s no pretension here and every cocktail i tasted was delicious.

Spencer Hansen

Had the bacon old fashioned because of all the recommendations online. I was not disappointed. Very cool atmosphere and friendly bartenders . Make it a point to come here for a quality cocktail .

Julia Conger

Had four different drinks, each one was delicious. Cumber mint drink, unbelievable! Also, try and have Beck serve you, he is the kind of waiter you dream of. Overall, one of the best places I've been

Libby Lee

This place is a hidden gem . The drinks are good & the appetizers are amazing! Try to tater tots or pork rinds . Drinks are divided by drinks so choose your poison. Can't go wrong

Jc Q

One of the best bars in the country ... Great cocktails and great atmosphere. Patterson House is always on my to do list when in Nashville.

Dee Dee Ball

Handcrafted cocktails are really good - yes, I had the bacon infused Old Fashioned - it was very very good...also had the Presidential Suite and the Mint Julep - grilled cheese panini

Tyler Coe

Bacon Old-Fashioned is the single best cocktail I've ever had. I want to try the rest of the menu but it's difficult to pay $13 for a drink that ISN'T that bacon old-fashioned.

Veronica Kelly-Cash

You can't go wrong with the Pimms Cup . For savory... go for the goat cheese balls or the tater tots . For sweet, go for the cinnamon donut holes. Hands down... my favorite place to end the night.

CITY GRIT

Enjoy one (or five) of their amazing concoctions featuring spirits paired with 1 or more of 20 different bitters and syrups . We’re partial to bourbon drinks, but would never say no to a Mint Julep .

Jenna Hubbard

Awesome cocktails - worth the wait. Food was just so-so... Although the pork belly sliders were legit. Really cool experience overall and I recommend sliding in there for the experience.

Bri Grill

Knowledgeable , creative bartenders , unique environment, and awesome bar snacks . The hostesses were even amazing! If you want a handcrafted cocktail tailored to your likes, you're in the right place.

John Northrup

ALL of the cocktails are delicious and well worth the price, it is also hard to go wrong with anything you could order from the food menu as well .

Lizzy Lapp

In addition to specialty cocktails , Patterson serves up cocktail classics. This is a great place to sip a few cocktails and talk with friends. Try the Pimm's cup on the menu.

Lily

You're not going to go wrong with any of the cocktails here. I can attest to the Vincent's Ruin (refreshing) and 200 Yard Stare (delicious but lephroaig heavy). Pork sliders are worth having.

Rachel Farr

Get there early or make a reservation . Long wait , but well worth it! The food was delish. The drinks were to die for. Great intimate atmosphere . Would definitely go back again!

Elke Nominikat

Conveniently located 2 walking min away from the Hilton Garden Inn . Excellent drink concoctions , decently priced in great ambience!

Mike Perry

There drinks are pre-prohibition and every mixer complements the liquor perfectly. Really well thought out. You have to check this place out!

M J

Flat bread , paninis , and cinnamon sugar donuts were amazing! Skip the tater tots , they are literally frozen tater tots . Polka Dot Negroni was superb!

Asha Augustine

The cocktails are amazing (try the Bacon Old Fashioned ); really enjoyed the sliders and goat cheese balls. Love this place!

Kelly R

One of Nashville's hidden treasures ! Great place for a date night ! All drinks are suburb...be sure to sit at the bar though...if not your missing out!

Mandi Hull

If there's a really long wait you can leave your cell number with the hostess . She'll text you when you're next on the list. It's an easy walk to Demonbreun to get some food while you wait :-)

Roniel Tessler

One of the best cocktail menus I've seen. Great place to go out for good drinks and cozy vibe.

Hunter Wilson

If you're looking for a good rum cocktail , try the Mister Tally-Mon

Carlos Russo

Speakeasy-style flair and everything is made in-house daily. Prohibition Era style cocktails , you won't want to miss.

Rachel Crawford

Amazing drinks, ask for a bartender recommendation if you're overwhelmed by the drink menu! Also, the goat cheese balls are great for an app.

Paul Lorsbach

If you're looking for something off the beaten path, head to the back of the menu and pick a drink off the "potable bitters " menu.

Ashley Alvarez

Bartenders are super friendly and knowledgeable . Tried two of the gin cocktails and loved both!!!

Alan

Like scotch or ginger or generally smoky beverages? Order the penicillin. Might not be on the menu, but SO good.

Rob Rebel

Great original cocktails and a long list of classics. Try the "Allora, Come Stai" ????????

Lily

You won't go wrong with any of the cocktails here. Their Mint Julep is one of the finest I've had.

Amol Utrankar

Everything is good. Talk to the bartenders ; they're great about helping you find a drink that suits your likings.

Brandon Roberts

If you wanna get toasty , order the Family Money! They also have pork rinds here.

Shawn Danko

If you ask what the 'most popular' drink is they will tell you it's the Bacon Old Fashioned however if you ask what's the 'best' drink they will not say the 'Bacon Old Fashioned '......

Brant McQuitty

Fantastic cocktails , crispy tater tots and reserved seating making for a great atmosphere.

Ashley Simon

Ask them for an El Diablo . It's not on the menu but it's a delicious tequila-ginger drink.

Kurt Howard

Great mixologists ! The Bacon Old Fashioned pairs great with Duck Leg Rillettes.

Chad Massaker

Try "The Jennings". It will make you think everything you ever knew about Jack & Coke ... using Hickory Smoked Cola. WOW!!!

Lucky Magazine

Located in an old Midtown residence, this bar feels like a Prohibition-era gentleman’s club. But the people-watching-worthy crowd sipping Bacon Old Fashions couldn’t seem less, well , old fashioned .

ᴡ Busch

Step back to the 1920's in this speakeasy-style place and get a bacon old-fashioned drink.

Alexander Frost

Come on- it's a speakeasy ! You pretty much have to check it out! How many other speakeasy joints are you aware of? See what I mean?

CITY GRIT

One of the only speakeasies we’ve seen with the speakeasy vibe without the speakeasy pretention.

Chad Massaker

Wine (2 reds: 1 can & 1 pinot ; & 2 whites) & Beer selection is very limited (mostly from the local brewery Yazoo)

Tom J

Imbibe Magazine listed Patterson House as pouring some of the Best Classic Cocktails in the South in their March/April 2011 Southern Issue.

Sheila???? Hollaway

Bacon old Fashion ! You won’t be disappointed.

Glenn Ebert

One of Nashville's greatest bars . Old school southern libations from the prohibition era, try anything with whiskey in it.
