50 Best Sports Bars near Old Hickory

“Sam's is a top fav for me in all of Nashville. my fav burger and fries, but everything on their menu is a hit. beautiful atmosphere on the lake, even in the winter!“

“Amazing burgers and fries! Quiet little hidden gem with limited seating but great staff and food. Chicken is sliced chicken, not chicken breasts but still great. Salads and bowls are also great. Kids are welcome. Patio seating.

Kid-friendliness: They do have a simple kid menu. Great for lunch or dinner but they do have a bar and trivia. So, probably best before 7pm. Bring my infant and toddler often and see other little kids“

“Great neighborhood sports bar. Best wings in town and a great smash burger. Meat and 3 for lunch Mon-Fri. Friendly staff and great tv set up to watch a game. They have all the NFL games as well.“

“I had the privilege of eating at Jonathan’s in MT. Juliet. The food was excellent and so was our server Molly. I gave the restaurant 5 stars and would also like to give Molly 5 stars . We will be returning customers. Thank you“

“Awesome place. All in Chiefs gear and not one rude look in the middle of winning the Orange Bowl. 😅 Felt the energy, and know it well! Congrats and thanks for the hospitality!“

“Please! Please! bring Jamesia back to the bar area for the Hendersonville location! She is the best server and we miss her.“

“⚠️ Poor Management Can Ruin a Good Concept Before this experience, I would have rated this location around 4.1/5. I actually liked the concept—cold beer, sports, decent food, and a lively adult-oriented atmosphere. The concept itself was never the problem. The problem was management. I brought a legitimate safety concern to management expecting a simple conversation and a willingness to address it. Instead, I felt dismissed and left with the impression that my concerns—and my business—didn't matter. 🚩 I also filed a BBB complaint, which was ultimately closed as “Unanswered” after management failed to respond. That's disappointing enough, but failing to respond through the BBB raised even more questions about accountability and customer service. The atmosphere may bring people through the door, but management determines whether customers come back. Cold beer, football, and themed events don't make up for feeling ignored when you raise a legitimate safety concern. If you're looking for a loud, adult-oriented sports bar atmosphere filled mostly with middle-aged men, this may be your place. But if you expect management to listen, take legitimate concerns seriously, and value your business, I'd think twice before spending your money here. A good concept can only go so far when management loses the trust of its customers.“

“Home away from home ❤
We found the Beyond the Edge family before even moving here from Chicago. It's THEE place to be for Chicago Bears games and any sport events really. Food is always delicious. Drinks are always strong. The staff is lovely and work their tails off. Highly recommended to anyone wanting good vibes with great food and dranks. 🙌🏽 🐻 👇🏽“

“Our first time for lunch today. The BEST snow crabs I have ever had. Blackened Mahi, grouper and drunken shrimp…oh and the key lime pie. Absolutely the best of everything!! Highly recommend and it’s our new weekly date night!“

“Was traveling through Jackson and looking for something not fast food. Great food, very friendly staff. Glad we stopped here.“

So good at her job. Yes, you order from the bar. Who cares? Tuesday night we had entertainment. They were good. They said there would be entertainment thd next night also, though we didn't see any. We may have been early. The food wss great. Huge portions of tasty, fresh food.“

“I feel like this place doesn't get enough credit. Great food. Great staff. Great local hangout. Never had a bad meal or time at Sam's.“

“Great day hanging out and service was awesome“

“Great west coast atmosphere in a bar, great staff and cold beer. What we like best is the staff has personality. Downtown has become too assembly line for us. Decent volume on the juke box, you can't beat the Thursday all night happy hour. Lots of parking, too. Sorry, can't say about the food, I've never eaten there.“

“Great bar. The whole staff and music was great.“

“Sean was an amazing waiter! He checked on our table numerous times! The breakfast burrito was so delicious!“

“Our company had a Halloween party at this place ans it was a BLAST‼️‼️ I’ve been back plenty of times since I love the open floor, the place was so cool with its own beer pong table, tons of screens for parlays and the bar and food is amazing! only place in Nashville to get that experience definitely recommend swinging by anytime of day!“

“Great burgers, great service Will definitely will stop again. Wish there was a franchise closer to Kentucky. (The sweet potato waffle fries were over cooked but the waitress gladly took the price off the check ) Keep up the good work ?“

“One of my favorite places to watch sports! Great patio views over the Sounds Baseball Stadium!“

“We were in town for the Eagles game and let me tell you, Amanda was the best freakin bartender we’ve ever seen!! She runs that place hands down!! Her level is few and far between, if you want to be noticed and your drink never empty, go here! Not only did she provide excellent service to our group, but she was tending to other large groups and people at the bar as well! We can’t wait to go back! Go birds!“

“Just came here to say, we popped in here last night to grab dinner and my husband ordered the lasagna.... I'm beyond picky on my Italian and especially lasagna, and please dont tell my straight off the boat Italian family but this was quite literally the best lasagna I've ever had, in my entire life.... I'm fully aware I'll never find one that compares and I'm half tempted to make him take me back again tonight. yall absolutely nailed it, from the sauce to the ratio of cheese and thin pasta noodles, it was ansolute perfection. We've literally been talking about it since we woke up today. Bravo, guys. absolutely phenomenal“

“Great food and atmosphere. Taylor is definitely #1 server.“

“We absolutely rocked this bar on our first night in Nashville. I love dive bars and this one is exceptional. They had some of the best karaoke singers I've ever heard and, we even took a ride on the bull. Travis was good to us. Shaking his head at us city girls the whole time! lol. Thank you!“

“Un lugar maravilloso para revivir recuerdos precisamente en conciertos“

“Would really love this to be a hangout with friends spot but you cannot hang out here in the evenings if you want to actually visit with your people. The music is Way too loud for that. Like your at a concert instead of a bar/restaurant. ):“

“Great service! Dave is the GOAT and his bartenders Made my daughter’s Bachelorette first day in Nashville so great!!!“

“We`re happy to have City Tap as one of our top rated partner bars in Nashville for our line-up of Bar Crawls. Always a great place to party. Friendly staff, amazing food and tasty drinks.“

“Great atmosphere! Our service was great & food came out timely & was delicious! Our Yukon potatoes were slightly over-salted but nothing too major! The cherries in my drink were superb as well!“

“Great service. Great food. Great music. Laid back atmosphere. The menu is simple, but don't let that stop you from giving it a chance.“

“The food here is amazing, but my favorite is the chicken Alfredo. It is awesome. Friendly and professional staff and awesome management would recommend this place.“

“We had so much fun here during the drag brunch for a bachlorette party! Even the owners were participating in the fun. The only downside was I was unaware there was gratuity added to my tab for 13 people. I ended up tipping double. I know this is my fault for not paying attention but wish the server would have mentioned it. Regardless it was a great time!“

“Great atmosphere! Only thing they could change is having a small munchie menu. We would’ve stayed if we hadn’t gotten hungry“

“This place has the best breakfast buffet I've ever seen, not only was the food delicious, the spread was beautiful, even our server Ryan was new, but did a fantastic job and was so friendly and attentive. We'll def be back“

“Didn’t try the food, but it was the perfect place to cool off and have a couple cold ones on a 90 degree day. Not to mention, the service was phenomenal. We had a wonderful bartender. I don’t know her name, but she was extremely attentive and just friendly and knowledgeable overall.“

“Wes is the best bartender in Nashvillle, hands down….we come to Pete and Terry’s before every Preds Game!!!! We LOVE it!!!“

“The food was divine! I recommend the chicken parm sandwich. Delicious! The atmosphere is great. Vibes are awesome. 10/10“

“had a blast with the guys as we are here from Houston working but the waitress was terrible it took 1 hrs to get nachos and was disappointed as there were 4 of us we ordered beers and she never came back for us to reorder more drinks and food until we had 15 minutes and we were playing from 7:30 to 9:30 and only seen her 3 times. we told her thanks for the terrible service and she replied back with (I know huh the waitress sucked). very unprofessional as this was our first time ever going to a top golf and it was very disappointing. I'm not sure if there was a shortage of staff but I hope next time we can have a better experience for what we paid for as we did enjoy the time playing together as coworkers.“

“I have been here twice now. The staff is amazing. The atmosphere is the best! This place attracts a great crowd and the music is great as well.“

“They get a star off only because I hate their bar top chairs. I will say they are over sized and very heavy, there is zero chance of someone leaning back in them and falling over but there is also zero space between which makes getting in and out of them difficult. Fingers getting pinched between is a thing too.
I stop in for lunch once in a while amd every so often after work. Food is generally spot on per the menu descriptions. Eat-in or carry-out.“

“So much fun!!! Loved talking with Chelsey!“

“Celebrated my bachelorette here and it was so much fun!! The music/DJ was sooo good and Arianna, one of the servers, was so sweet and made sure we had a great time! Would definitely recommend starting your bar crawl at this spot and then heading down Broadway!“

“We eat there a couple of times a month for lunch. Alexis is the waitress and she is so efficient. She is the only waitress but can take care of all the tables. The food is always good and the service is excellent. I’m not sure how she does it alone but she pulls it off. So kind and efficient. She needs a raise. Such an asset to the company.“

“2 wings in and my mouth burning eyes watering, nose running but there's flavor not just burning! It was definitely worth the wait!“

“Shirley was my waitress, she is the best! Shirley works extremely hard to serve her customers. She works circles around the other waitress. She is polite and efficient, makes you feel welcome. Shirley deserves recognition and praise! Thank You Shirley for your brilliant service!“

“My server was decent but the person who really stood out was the manager that came and checked on us. She was so sweet and caring and made sure we had what we needed. I was shocked to learn she was so new. I loved her vibe and she had the cutest makeup on! I don’t remember her name but she has pretty makeup, she was young and had blue in her hair. She made the trip worthwhile!“
