Loved Lonnie. My wife and I stopped in for a few drinks and had a blast. The young ladies running the karaoke and bar were awesome. Probably going back this evening

All the servers were great but AJ (karaoke hostess) is a superstar! She kept the flow going, the mood positive and encouraging, not to mention the girl's got some pipes!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If I could give Lonnie’s Western Room more than five stars, I would!
My dear friend Jordy has been visiting Nashville from Pennsylvania every summer for the past 11 years, and Lonnie’s has consistently rolled out the red carpet for him. Jordy is blind, but that has never been a barrier here—in fact, the staff go above and beyond to make him feel welcome, safe, and celebrated. They graciously let him sing 2–4 songs at a time, guide him on and off the stage, and never let his Coca-Cola run dry.
The atmosphere is spotless and easy to navigate, with clean bathrooms, great seating, and a warm, nostalgic vibe that feels like stepping back into “original Nashville” with just the right touch of modern sparkle. The service is unlike anywhere else I’ve been—Mr. Lonnie, Mr. Jo, Miss Brittany, and the rest of the team set the gold standard for friendliness, professionalism, and genuine hospitality.
Just last night, Mr. Jo spotted us in line and personally brought us to the front, clearing a safe path so Jordy could sit near the stage. When it was time to leave, Mr. Lonnie himself came out with a flashlight and had the crowd part to ensure Jordy exited safely—while Miss AJ, the new karaoke host, kindly asked everyone to give him space leaving the stage. These small acts of kindness mean the world, and they happen here every single time.
Lonnie’s Western Room isn’t just a karaoke bar—it’s a place filled with grace, joy, and heart. The staff here aren’t just good at their jobs; they’re good people. Their energy is unmatched, their love for what they do is obvious, and their dedication to creating a safe, fun, inclusive environment is truly rare.
Thank you, Lonnie’s, for making every visit unforgettable and for treating Jordy (and everyone who walks through your doors) like family. Nashville wouldn’t be the same without you!

Last night I encounter a racist bar tender who threw my debit card across the bar and refused to serve me. Me and my friend went to get a drink he said he was paying, and that he owed me because I got him one last time. This bartender served 6 people who came to the bar after us before saying anything to us, acting as if we weren’t there. When she finally acknowledges us she asked what we wanted. I told her and she says “well you know it’s $16 right” as if we couldn’t afford it. Then she attempts to take the drink back out of my hand as i’m waiting for my friend to pay. I pulled my arm back and said what is the issue?? (After she tried to snatch the drink out of my hand) She says “I need payment first before u can have it” She asks for the drink back and says “He’s not gonna pay” My friend says to her ma’am I am paying right now I jus put the money on my bank card. Then she says “he doesn’t have it” and asks for the drink back claiming he’s not gonna pay. She puts her hand out as if I’m some child and asks for the drink back. I said to her “you didn’t do anyone else this way” she said “what do u mean” in a very angry tone. I said ma’am every else here who ordered a drink u just gave it to them and they payed after now all of a sudden you need our money first before we can’t get our drinks , and mind you she didn’t give my friend what he ask for either she’s waiting on payment which she didn’t do anyone else like that as we were the only 2 blacks in the bar area. So I finally said you know what it’s all good just take my card it is no problem at all i’ll pay for it. She then takes my card snatched it from my hand winds back and threw it across the bar!!!! She also slams the drink in the trash can and began to yell at me saying get out get out now. I responded asking what is wrong with you why would you throw my debit card across the bar she claims “I will not be talked to that way” get out now. We were both extremely respectful to her to whole time and just question why were the only ones who had to pay before we were giving the drink unlike everyone else who she jus swiped there card after there drinks had been open and sipped and all before they paid. A little old man who works there then comes up to me saying she never has any problems so if you guys wanna bring trouble we can and call the police and told me to walk away from the bar. I told the man you have seen me come in here for years i’ve caused no problems in here. He still was telling me to move away from the bar that’s when I explained to him it was shoulder to shoulder and there was no room Id love to move but can’t. He said he doesn’t care and figure it out. At that point I said you know what Im leaving , they also were not gonna let me look for my card lucky a guy saw what happened brought it to me and asked if I was alright and asked what the bartenders problem was. I went somewhere else and had a better night somewhere else anyways! Lonnie’s hires racist staff and I will never be back. The bartender was an older later 40s-50s not the usual younger lady who works the bar. Regardless of what ever happens in service you never throw sometimes debit card !!! That’s common sense and who acts like that especially at 50 years old! She was clearly racist and got called out on it and threw a tantrum. Lonnie’s will never get another penny from me!

We stop at Lonnie’s every time we’re in Nashville. It’s got a little bit of everything for everyone and the karaoke hostesses are awesome. No one cares if you can hold a tune or not. It’s all about having fun with friends.

Has the best time here for karaoke on my birthday. The KJ AJ was amazing, the crowd vibes were so much fun and the bartender was amazing. Thank you!!

Nashville has definitely left me with the best taste. Of all the trips I have made, it is the first time that a destination has, by far, better Karaokes than the ones I frequent in my native Santiago.
This has been an incredible experience. The atmosphere really is effervescent. People sing a lot, they put their heart into it and the public participates a lot.

This place is a scam. Don’t waste your money on the cover. They offer false advertising, no AC, and little to no staff at bars.

We had a great time!! Lonnie's is always a fun place and this time we were able to take our 11 year old daughter. We went on a Thursday night and it wasn't as crowded as usual. Our daughter even got up there to sing too. Great time!!

Very friendly and welcoming place with above-average singing talent. Unpretentious and down to earth bar and staff! Eclectic, lots of character vs karaoke around the corner. Have had amazing time, even several years apart of visits. A must go.
