Honky Tonk Central Reviews

Didn't even play country music. I heard more Metallica than anything else. Like what is that at a honky tonk?

Decent music, over priced drinks $9 for well rum n coke and it was TINY! There are some many awesome places to visit in Nashville it hard to give this a higher rating.

How can you not have a great time in this place. Always an incredible experience. I visit every time I come to town

Food was good. Drinks were fine. Band and entertainment were awesome! Three floors and outdoor balconies!

Great drinks, great service from the bar tenders, and an awesome beer selection.

This is probably one of the most expensive places on Broadway. Bartenders were cool, but not really worth the money.

You can find life music everywhere. Nice restaurant, delicious burgers and good drinks

The first floor had awesome, diverse song covers. Second floor, not so much. Dance area too small. Drinks were good tho.

Excellent service by Hannah. Friendly, knowledgeable, and provided superior service. Would definitely come again especially if Jered Ames is performing.

I LOVED the atmosphere here! The have love music on all 3 floors and when u enter u can just go to whichever floor u want. We went to the 3rd floor to get the best views of Nashville from their balcony. I also love that they have a kids menu and that my kids were welcome there. Their food was amazing! Their fries are especially awesome! Definitely would go back again!

Spent the better part of our day here. Great place to party with friends and make new ones. Very good country bands.

If your from out of state good luck trying to get in on a weekday, told me my Montana ID was fake and had to call a cop to get it back, bartenders were very rude and took forever just to get service just to get kicked out. My ID worked at every other bar in downtown.

Music was ok, bartenders were super fast and friendly. Great atmosphere

Great music, a really fun atmosphere, great service, but almost no alcohol in the mixed drinks. Pricing is about average for downtown Nashville. Security everywhere, so no problem bringing your girl. Have fun!

Loved it. Great atmosphere & entertainment different band on each floor.

Was there during new years eve and bathroom line for women's and mens was outrageously long on the third floor. Went to the 2nd floor and it was the same and the first floor was even longer. I tried to go back to the third floor where my wife, jacket, wallet and where they held my credit card behind the bar and the bouncer said due to being at fire rated maximum, They were NoT allowing anyone back upstairs. Tried to explain I would just get my wife and personal affects and then leave, but they didn t care I would lose my phone, credit cards and no way to let my wife know. They threw me out due to it being to full. It was a pathetic experience. DON T waste your time there!!!

We stopped in here on a Sunday for lunch and had a wonderful time. We ordered the nachos and a side of fries. They were both delicious. The live music was awesome. We only hung out on the first floor, but it was such a great time. We will be back!

Great for music lovers, there ous literally music on every street corner with lots of shops, vendors, and plenty of things to see that an out of towner may not typically get to witness. Seeing is definitely believing

Had a really great time here!! They had a live band and really great service. Definitely would recommend going here if you're in Nashville.

Dancing and drinking good old time. Great music scene as well.

Huge place live music plenty of room to move great food love to sit and people watch balconies over Broadway

Multiple levels of cover bands, multiple levels of bars, multiple good times. If you're going to Nashville you best hit up Honky Tonk Central, otherwise you didn't do Nashville right.

Loved the atmosphere here. Very lively and the live music was lit(really) on fire. Drinks were on the bit expensive side but it's totally worth it for the vibes and liveliness of this place. Would definitely recommend it to anyone who is visiting Nashville and would want to have couple of drinks and enjoy good music. Cheers!

Fun bar, great service & music on each of the 3 levels.

Went tonight and our bartender was amazing! Band did country as well as classic rock and the crowd was fun and exciting. The band played covers from any request, the Charlie Daniels Devil Went Down to Georgia cover was amazing!! We will definitely go back! Thanks for the awesome evening!

Worst bar in Nashville by a long shot. Avoid the third floor bar if you make an appearance, the bartenders not only don t know how to make drinks but the place also makes weak drinks and terrible food. Avoid at all costs.

Came up from Atlanta and was looking for the "western bar vibe". This place was great. Great drinks and wonderful food. The music was good too. We stayed for quite a while just enjoying the atmosphere and listening to the music. Crowded but just crowded enough! Loved it and will be back.

Pretty cool for tourists and fans of country music.

Live music was great. Also food and drinks were good. I will definitely visit this place again next time im in town.

Loved the band until that lady started singing purple rain! Haha I'm sure this place is always busy. We had a good time.

This is THE bar to visit in Nashville. Music on 3 floors with great service, clean bathrooms for a bar, and they serve pretty good food. MAKE SURE YOU COME HERE IF YOU ARE NEW TO NASHVILLE. IT IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR.

Great venue for live music , lots of up and coming artist you can't go wrong

The music was a bit slow and too loud. It kind if killed the atmosphere. It was 5pm on a Wednesday.

Very good music but 8 dollars per beer is a killer.

I went to Nashville for the first time last week. It was an awful experience. The mask rule is completely understandable and they do a good job enforcing it. However, they have more random charges then any place I ve ever been to in my life and they blame it on COVID. For example, there is no rhyme or reason of what they decide to charge you during COVID. They have a $5.50 appetizer that they make you buy when you order a drink even if you re going to order food. How does this make sense? Some places charged the $5.50 per drink, some per round, and some not at all. It s a complete rip off and I would suggest anyone stay away until COVID is over. It s just not worth it.

Lots of fun with great young talent doing a fine job!!

Very good for all they are up against these days. Great music and service!

Upper deck is the place to enjoy and chill while people watching.

Had a great time at Honky Tonk Central, Josh was an awesome host who took the best care of 4 girls on a much needed "girls weekend". Keep up the great work Josh! Thanks!

Limited menu. Bartenders not really friendly. 3rd floor a plus. Good music but you can find at most Nashville joints.

Took about a minute to realize I was with all the other tourists.

Liked the New years Eve party. The light music and Band was awesome. Really enjoyed the night. easily we can spend three to four hours there. The servers are kind and polite.

A must visit for tourists. Fun atmosphere and great music. Dance the night away :)

Lost my ID there trying to find no one will answer the phone

Fun. Crazy. Crowded. Definitely a Nashville experience.

I'm not big into loud places, but this had a live band. Expect that you'll have to speak loudly and annunciate your order. The people there seem great, but it's tourist area so, I'm sure it's different daily. My group and I had a good time, there were an older couple going wild square dancing or something. Memorable for sure.

Easy to get to. Always has live music playing. Multiple levels. Attentive bar staff

Started & ended our day here. They opened a couple hours early for the football game & it was packed by 10am. Our server did a great job staying on top of things for how busy it was that early. The nachos were huge and so good. Great live music too!

We went back that night & the upper floors were open with fresh air & a cool view of Broadway. Definitely recommend stopping here!

I am from Nashville. My husband and i went downtown and took some friends. I had an overweight blonde waitress on the first floor. I simply said can I have a sugar free vodka water. She said ok. (It took 12 minutes for to even ask) I was so embarrassed anyway having company in from out of town. I will never take them there again. Then the waitress brought my drink, and I said hey babe did you have a tab. She then aggressively said honey you ordered the drink I was simply asking my husband to make sure we wouldn t pay twice. Worst experience I ve had. I was a bartender 7 years. So ashamed. Never will go there again due to her.

So much fun. Went to the upper floor and great music and dancing.

Great place for Eagles pregame. Very busy but the staff was quick to serve.

We loved it here. Had the delicious nachos, soooo good. Quick service. Clean bathrooms. Reasonable prices.

The band was really good and the staff very friendly. I ordered a spicy chicken sandwich and it was delicious.

Bartenders great
Music good
Security , bouncers and guy picking up cup , very rude and willing to star trouble and scaled and situation just to show off!
It s very disappointing!!!!

Really great atmosphere. Band was really good. I think I was over charged for my drinks.

My favorite country bar to go to, 2nd floor is the most fun.

I'm from dallas.. and had a blast in Nashville, thanks for tha good time!! And live music..

Great place to hang out and have fun on every floor

Big stage, good loud music. Walk in with no cover chargers as such but at times they do charge like $5. Don t expect any service as such just like any other places on broadway.

I've been to Honky Tonk Central twice now during my visits to Nashville, and I have had great experiences both times. The staff is very friendly and efficient. The bands playing have been top notch! I would highly recommend this establishment to anyone looking for a fun place to visit!
Also, during COVID, the tables have been spread out for social distancing and all staff wear facemasks.

With three floors of live music, this is the typical Nashville bar located on the main strip. Each floor is slightly different in music taste but all offer a great night out.

This has been me and my families favorite bar since this bar has been open. Tonight, a security guard on the second floor was so rude to us and told us that he didn t need our business and we should just leave, I will tell our company and anyone I can encounter to never come back so they don t have to encounter the same treatment we had. I m absolutely repulsed by his actions and I am very disappointed that my favorite bar hired such a hateful employee.

Great live music on all floors and drinks were great too.

Had a great time there. Very friendly staff, and band.

In Nashville and looking for somewhere to have fun.... this is definitely your place!

A very fun place with three-tiered space with live music on all three floors! Went here on a Saturday night and it was moderately crowded but not bad at all! There were plenty of table space on the third floor where the view of the street was pretty great!

A must-go for a night out in the city. Always full and with live music, local drinks and tons of happy people.

Fun times. Great cocktail and a different style of live music on each floor. What more could you want in the heart of boardwalk?!

Great music. Tried to visit at night could barely get in the door. Went back in the afternoon the next day and had a great time.

First time in Nashville. Love this place. Three stories of live music. Good service, good food, cold drinks and Nashville, can't go wrong here.
