Hey lovely ladies! Today I’m sharing my Best Girls Night Out Ideas in Nashville! Whether you’re a local or coming to town for a girls weekend full of activities, this blog is for you! LET’S GO, G.N.O.!
We are starting strong with the #1 spot tourists love to flock: Broadway. Broadway is an essential stop within your travel guide to Nashville. The land of never ending cowboy boots and hats. Y’all did get the memo that we actually do not wear that here, right? It’s such a tradition now that I almost feel like I should throw on my Justin’s to make a Broadway appearance. Friends, we are a top bridal and bachelor party destination now. I am linking my blog for the Ultimate Bachelorette Guide here: The Ultimate Nashville Summer Bachelorette Weekend Guide From A Local . We even get our own camera for the NYE ball drop. We are doing BIG things here in Nashville and are experiencing such growth and it’s so very exciting for our city.
With Nashville growing each and every day, there are so many options out there to have the ultimate amazing night out! You never have to go the same place twice. Let’s start with brunch spots. I know this is a Girls Night Out blog but sometimes brunch turns into a day into night type of deal so I couldn’t leave these out. If you’re looking for strictly nighttime places, scroll past this list onto Lunch & Dinner.
- Sinema: two words. Hardy AND boozy! Which is everything that brunch should be. You could end up spending all day here, it’s that good! On top of that, the environment and staff will make you want to stay too. They offer bottomless brunch, bottomless mimosas, and bottomless bloody marys! They have all the brunch staples you could imagine.
- The Hampton Social: Three story venue with a first floor Rosé lounge (yup I said it, A Rosé LOUNGE), second floor dining, a private dining space, and third floor rooftop space. Absolutely makes you feel like you just dove into East Coast living in every aspect. It’s nautical, beautiful, and a heck of a good time. Insta-worthy all. day. long.
- Miranda Lambert’s Casa Rosa Bar: TEXMEX + CANTINA. Y’all this place is the bomb.com! The bar is four stories and something you would imagine from straight out of a movie. It’s all things girly, glitzy, modern, cowgirl paradise! It’s also the first female country bar to hit broadway so far. Highly recommend going here even if you just pop in for a drink. The atmosphere, decor, food, and cocktails are amazing!
- The Ainsworth: Super fun environment if you’re looking to get a little crazy. The decorations, lighting, and oh man the music. If you didn’t think you’d be twerking on the table, you thought wrong. If you’re wanting to relive your college bar days in a “luxury” manner, go here. It is mostly bar food for options but the drinks are incredible and usually they run brunch specials. They even have options for bottle service should that interest you at all. All around this is a super fun environment if you’re searching for the wild brunch experience.
- Nada: Delicious latin-inspired cuisine. Super cute lively environment. Unreal margs.
- Acme Feed & Seed: Three floors of amazing, fresh, and unique food. Brings the charm of past, present, and future all things Nashville. The top floor is the largest one-level event and music venue on lower Broadway.
- Josephine: Unreal food. Great ambiance. Cozy and chic.
- Saint Anejo: Premier Mexican dining. Choice of over 100 tequilas. The cutest patio seating!
- Pinewood Social: A really fun atmosphere that also has games like bowling etc
Lunch & Dinner:
- Virago: BOMB sushi. Super cool ambiance. It’ll make you feel important just being there because it’s a mood. Get the wasabi martini trust me.
- Barcelona Wine Bar: Delicious tapas inspired by culture of Spain! Super good for a group because there is a huge variety of incredible food selections to share with the whole table. What’s better than being able to share all kinds of yummy foods and split a couple bottles of wine? That’s a WIN in my book.
- Sunda: Super fun environment. Great staff. Creative and modern spin on Japanese, Chinese, Thai, Vietnamese & Filipino cuisine!
- The Optimist: Fancy! Incredible and unique seafood. The oysters are incredible. If you’re looking to branch out and expand your tastebuds, ask your waiter/waitress what to get. They are excellent at recommending new dishes that will blow your mind. Oh, and don’t be thrown off by the way the meals look. They are presented like art and all taste incredible.
- Superica: TRUE TEX-MEX! Delicious. 100%.
- Pemrose: Southern twist on seafood with a huge wine and cocktail selection. Has a super nice “seaside” vibe to it!
- Etch: Very eclectic upscale dining experience. Super modern and located downtown! Delicious.
Notable Rooftops:
- Lou/Na Rooftop Bar: Just opened! Located on the 25th floor of the new Grand Hyatt hotel! Stunning 360 views, one of Nashville’s tallest rooftop bars, and in the heart of Music City. Great cocktails and THE BEST Shrimp & Grits I’ve ever had anywhere.

I hope you all enjoyed this little guide to what a GNO in Nashville might look like! There are so many places now and honestly everywhere is great. These are just a fraction of the places I’ve been to that I think y’all will love. There is nothing quite like getting out of the house, throwing on a cute outfit, and going out with the girls. Especially when we weren’t able to for so long! We have some time to make up for ladies. Happy Saturday!
