MIDTOWN. Hailed as the best brew house in Nashville, the Broadway Brewhouse serves 72 beers on tap and over 175 bottle varieties. The beer complements the Cajun food offered on the menu. The mellow dive-bar feel provides a relaxed place to chill, drink beer, and throw a round of darts while shaking off the troubles of the work week. Their fun open air bar overlooks Broadway.#13;#10;

DOWNTOWN. Regarded by locals and tourists alike as one of the best places to spend an evening in Nashville, the Market Street Brew Pub has one of the smartest-looking bars in town. The establishment as a whole is an antique gem that looks like something you'd see in the UK. Business types pack in here on game nights to watch the Vols, Commodores or Titans while enjoying one of the pub's own tasty quaffs. The food is delicious and includes traditional "pub fayre" as well as good cajun and local specialties.
