Reviews of Honky Tonk Central (Night Club)

Jennifer James

Nashville's Music Capital. If you love music and you love to drink, this is the place to be. Almost every establishment has a band playing. Some offer food. Some have dancing. We hit Jason Aldean's for dinner and drinks. Excellent and reasonable prices. Also went to Wild Horse Saloon for dinner, a band AND line dancing...which they gave lessons. In the streets, we did see several drugged out individuals and lots of beggars and homeless people. I personally did not see one cop there. Watch your kids!!! They really need to clean that up. Other then that we enjoyed!!

Great place to hangout and chill eat and drink. The live band was fun and you can't go wrong coming here. The service was great and it's always a good time. A fun place to just people watch and just be :)

Caroline Browder-Black

Decided this would be a great place to go for our out of town friends to experience some of the best Nashville has to offer. Food service was fast. Alcohol drinks were basically juice.... no content or very minimal. We ordered lemon drop shots for the table and it was all lemon juice no alcohol, I asked from past bartending experience , ordered again and same thing. I def would not waste your money at this place.

Allison Chitwood

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

Chad Musselman

I went here with my wife during CMA Fest. the place was packed of course and they had bands playing on all three levels which was pretty cool. We sat on level 3 facing Broadway so we got a pretty cool view of everything going on. The food here is average bar food nothing too special. We got the appetizer sampler platter and it was all right. Lots of nacho chips but you had to pay for extra salsa. The southwest chicken egg roll was probably the best part of the appetizer sampler. The service was pretty good. Overall an okay place to go but definitely nothing to go out of your way to get to.

Florencia Basaldella

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

Christopher Cunningham

Great stake. Food was great. The staff was good looking and very professional

James Ward

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!!!

Ronald Breeden

It wasnt too bad.

Firsa mame

Great place to have fun. We always love the entertainment. Drinks are mixed great for my taste but I like strong drinks, otherwise I would buy kool-aid or something. Get there early, everybody is going to be there.

Mike Braynard

Loved this place good ole country bar

Carlo Romano

Pretty good bands but service is slow. Overall the place is big and full of places to enjoy. Did not eat.

Eyal S. Ron

Fun music venu. 3 floors of live music although at that night the bands were not to my liking. Overall this place is as good as all the other music bars in that area.

Brittaney Mahler

Amazing pours, amazing bands on every floor and just a great environment. We never had a chance to eat here, but the whole experience was awesome.

Destinations Untold

This place is pumping every night. I went here on a Monday night and wasn't really expecting too much. It's better then alot of places around the country on a Saturday night. Definitely head to the Honky Tonk for a good fun night.

John Gibson

Absolutely loved it!!!...The 'Hoss Skelton Band' on the first main floor is the best local band on Broadway!!!...

Francesca Simone

This place is awesome! Really good time!

Daniela V

So much fun, a stop for sure!!! Different bands in each level, fast service and great drinks

Randy Laney

Drinks were cold, food was good and music...what more could you ask for?

The King of Home Comfort

Love Love Love the atmosphere of this place. I found it even more enjoyable than the more famous Tootsies across the Street. The music was incredible.

Nikita-lee Lourens

A beautiful view on the 2nd floor. Vibrant place to chill at

Amy Nulle

Amazing Catfish bites!!! Music was amazing even at 3pm! Broadway bars aren’t just for night life!

JLB 3

Nice place. Show up on a Sat night to the rooftop and spend 45 minutes between sets with no music. Band has been on stage for 20 minutes. Guess they're not too excited to play.

Heather Parsons

Great set up and atmosphere...even family friendly!

D. Pate

If you are in Nashville, at least come by to eat and listen to some excellent music. A great blend of country and other fun songs by very talented bands! They are located on the corner so it is a very busy place.

Nicole Bateman

Teal the bartender is absolutely incredible. She is bubbly, she is friendly, and she is genuine. As visitors from Miami, we stayed at this bar because of her! She is such a gem and Nashville needs to hold on to her❤️ Plus she’s an Eagles fan! Can’t go wrong with that

John Pacewicz

A great first stop in Nashvile.

Bob Schmidt

Best brewery in Nashville. King Bee Blonde is wonderful. Staff is friendly and helpful. A must go to if visiting from out of town.

Trent Nutter

Great music and atmosphere but if your sitting by the window it can get very hot.

Gabriela Maynard

Fun place, a bit too crowded during holiday weekends.

Gretchen K

This bar was recommended to us because it has 3 floors all with different live music. Well it was SO crowded you could hardly even move on any of the 3 floors. The live music was good though I suppose.

tori minnich

Awesome trip!!! We had a lot of fun touring Nashville. Jane was the best bartender! A lot more fun than the peddle bars!

Nikolai Krestinsky

Verry nice little saloon.

Maurice Connolly

Had a great time Monday, really friendly staff and customer’s and the band was great.

James Burris

We really like Honkey Tonk Central. It is big and open and always has a good variety of music. If you don't like the band on the floor you're on, just go up or down for a different experience.

Dianne Pickin Tiner

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!

Angela Sosa

So much fun ! Drinks and food are amazing! The bands that play there are unbelievable. One of my favorite places in Downtown Nashville.

Robert Sanchez

First time ever to Nashville Tennessee, my wife is a huge country music fan so I googled places and came upon Honky Tonk Central. I myself am not into country music. However... coming here, listening to the live performances, watching this live and fun crowd, eating this amazing food, enjoying their amazing customer service here. I am definitely not totally against country music now lol. This place is amazing!!! It’s so much fun, it’s an amazing atmosphere. Wow!!! Mind blown!!! Highly recommend this great place if you’re ever in Nashville. If I ever comeback I’m staying at the Hilton next door and I’m eating and getting smashed so I can truly experience the whole fun experience of this place and wonderful city.

Venue - Huge place definitely one on the top biggest ones with multiple levels. Crowd - Good fun crowds out for a good time. Staff - Staff here is always cool and does the best they can and keep cool during rush hours. Location - In the heart of Nashville and its popular Broadway district. Prices - Decent prices just like any other bars on the strip. Place is popping, always busy, worth checking out for sure. One of the Originals that has been around for a while.

Salvatore Milazzo

Another great place. Fortunately a great band the night we were there.

Chris Fitzer

Band while I was there was great. I was sitting at the middle of the bar and it was quite difficult to hear the band due to other noise in the bar. Fairly trashy place compared to other Broadway bars.

William Edwards

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!

Wendy Mcgovern

Always fun great atmosphere music is awesome

Torey Malone

Started off day drinking and it turned it to an all night thing lol love it..

Norman Ruth

Got to see a good friend. The place was awesome.

K Chow

Great staff and great atmosphere. The wings we ordered were quickly delivered to us, but were just okay tasting. Would go back again.

Ronald Bigos

Great place. Had a great time there.

Will Dixon

A member of my party who is currently breastfeeding her 9 month old son (who is at home during this weekend trip) wasn’t allowed to bring in her breast pump because “it’s a backpack”. Despite the explanation that the pump is a medical device, she was not allowed in. The bouncer chose not to use any sort of free thinking or logic. Absolutely disgraceful.

Matt Chamberlin

Too crowded. Very loud. Rooftop area is the saving grace.

Jimmy Hillis

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

Premium Motor Sales

great bar to stay in Nashville with 3 story's you can choose what music you want to party to or how quick you want to get your next drink ………….

Maky Alario

Great atmosphere, went here during my bachelorette party, bartender was super nice and drinks were great! Live music was awesome! Definitely a must for bachelorette party!

Sarah Zirnkilton

Tim Bushell

Great place on Broadway... Three levels with live music!

Alan Cornell

What a fun fun place. We've just moved into our penthouse which looks down on HTC and go there almost every night. Steve Smith is awesome, his staff courteous and the food is great. You know it's a cool place when the locals go there!!!

Christine Thompson

My fiance and I consider this "our" place in Nashville because we live it so much!

robert long

Love this place, great music and good time!

Yvette Nelson

This place was a blast, while visiting Nashville. Great cold beer, food, and rising stars singing on the stage. The atmosphere is perfect, unless you don't like music. The crowd varries from trendy to older folk. It was fun and I can hardly wait to go again.

Asia Badgett

Best friend visited from Cali. Loved the dwntwn area

Trask LeNoble

Had lots of Fun at this Bar. Even ran into some people from my home town while visiting!

Dan Bergey

I would need to check this out on an off night to know service level. When crowded service will suffer. Still fun place and good music.

Sallyann Fredericksen

Amazing live music and so much fun! Multiple levels of live music + alcohol = my kinda spot.

Michael Richter

Awesome 3 level bar with live music on every level. No rooftop area here however they did have balconies on the 2nd & 3rd floors along with huge open glass doors with balcony fences so everyone can enjoy the sights & sounds of the downtown Attentive bar tending & prices are expected for the area Fun place overall

Bailey Good

The BEST bar on Broadway! They have reasonably priced drinks, along with multiple floors that have balconies to overlook Broadway and different bands on each floor. A MUST visit for your trip to Nashville!

David Smith

Chris Stathis

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

Stephanie

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!

Jonathan Arcega

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!!!!

Basil Pais

It was a lot of fun. Exciting music

River Rat Metal detecting/digging

Great live music. Always great service, cold drinks, & great pub style food. Can't beat it unless you're a drummer

Kaleigh Smith

So much fun and we had the best bartender Dana and driver JR!! <3

Pete Pacent

No tap water and charge $5 for bottled? Weak sauce

Rebecca Macmillan

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

Ellie Maybe

Came in tonight for my husband's industry networking event. We had a sweet little VIP area overlooking the band on the main floor. The bartender (Kelsey) was wonderful! She kept the energy up and it felt like a friendly, welcoming local watering hole even in a touristy club environment. We're local so we don't make it down to lower Broadway too often, but next time we give friends the Nashville tour we're definitely gonna stop in for a drink to see if she's working! I think Batman might have been there, too. Hard to tell without the mask.

Allie Smith

Nice place, acoustics are not too good.

Angela Schoger

Loved the atmosphere! Lots of fun, and they had great bands playing! Our group of 10 all enjoyed this bar! It was awesome to stand out on the balcony and watch the streets packed with people everywhere! Great birds eye view!

Kevin Doe

Multi floor bar with different entertainment on each level. The balconies on the upper level offer a nice view of the main strip, and also give a chance to step away from the noise if you want. Staff is friendly as well.

A J

Fun bar and great location! We stopped in with a large group and had a blast. The place was packed and we were able to get a table. The service was great and we loved the band.... I did find it odd the band was always requesting money though but maybe that’s normal here for a live band.
