Tennessee: the oldest bars
Updated: Oct 5
Oldest bar in Tennessee: Springwater (Nashville), 1896
Springwater Supper Club & Lounge, in Nashville: The oldest continuously open and operational bar in Tennessee. They have live music five nights a week, afternoon events, friendly staff, and cold beer. This place has had EVERY Hank Williams (yes, all three) play here, as well as The Black Keys.
This is a CASH ONLY establishment. I guess once upon a time, they sold food but not any more. Red’s Hot Chicken is right next door, and Springwater allows outside food (I highly recommend you eat here).
Lynchburg, TN

Jack Daniel's Distillery - 1995. Take a guided tour of the oldest registered distillery in the U.S. to see how the famous whiskey is made using iron-free cave spring water.

Miss Mary Bobo's Boarding House - 1995.
A great place to enjoy a traditional, family-style Southern meal served at communal tables, continuing a local tradition that dates back to 1908. Reservations are needed.
