Romantic Restaurants, Getaway Places in Lebanon

"Music City wouldn’t be an accurate name for Nashville, Tennessee without a museum dedicated to country music. Located in the entertainment district of downtown Nashville, the Country Music Hall of Fame provides over 40,000 square feet of music history and so much more. This unique museum and research center can offer any visitor the chance to learn about and enjoy the history of a strictly American musical genre."

"From the moment Andrew mentioned going to Pinewood Social in the evening, I knew it was right up my alley. While we were a little too full to eat any more food, we opted for drinks at the wrap-around bar in the middle of the room. They certainly have some innovative (and yummy) cocktails."

"The Goldberg brothers gave Nashville acclaimed restaurants and bars such as the Catbird Seat and Patterson House, plus a kitschy honky-tonk on Lower Broad. In 2013, they did it again with Pinewood Social, a coffee shop, restaurant, bar, karaoke..."

"Few outdoor spaces can compare to Pinewood Social's, where you can enjoy tiki drinks from the Airstream bar while playing bocce ball and ping pong, or lounge in the two wading pools."

"At ACME, the food and the music are both worth going, and staying, for. This massive, warehouse-esque building has three levels: the bottom floor offers live music and a full menu, the second has a sushi bar and a lounge and the third level has a gorgeous rooftop view overlooking the Cumberland River. ACME’s menu is full of delicious options – make sure to order a roll from the sushi bar as an appetizer and then head downstairs for the Rule the Roost."

"There is probably no better view of Broadway and the Cumberland River than that from Acme Feed & Seed’s rooftop patio, recently reopened after a yearlong hiatus due to the pandemic. The patio space wraps around the corner of 1st and Broadway, allowing guests two different Nashville city photo ops. There is also a full bar and both covered and open-air seating options."

"The menu at this drink, food, and fun emporium on Lower Broad focuses on an eclectic variety of Latin-tinged Southern dishes, with plenty of Gulf and ocean dishes to try. The fried catfish basket and grilled ahi sandwich are standouts, and the elegant second-floor sushi bar, which serves 17 types of rolls, puts Acme near the top of the local seafood mountain."

"The Art Deco-style Frist Art Museum displays works by local, state and regional artists along with national and international exhibits. The center is housed in the former post office that was completed in 1934 as part of the Public Works Administration. Architectural details, including fluted pilasters and stone eagles, blend classical elements with national symbols to create a style known as Grecian Moderne."

"Location:United States Postal Service, 919 Broadway, Nashville, Tennessee 37203. Artwork from around the world has found itself on display at the Frist Art Museum in Tennessee. This location has over 40,000 square feet of space filled with visual art of all kinds, including drawings, paintings, and sculptures."

"As one of Nashville's most prestigious art institutions, The Frist Center for the Visual Arts presents high-calibre exhibitions every six to eight weeks that feature artists from the region and around the world..."

"The Parthenon is located in Nashville’s Centennial Park and is one of the city’s most unique attractions. Replicas of authentic Grecian statues depicting Greek gods and goddesses offer and opportunity for guests to learn more about classical architecture. Many guests also choose to stop by the Tennessee Art Museum which houses approximately 60 works of art by well-known 19th and 20th century artists"

"Nashville's most iconic landmark, the famous reproduction of Athens' Parthenon, is located in Centennial Park and is just a short walk west of the city center. Originally built of wood in 1897 to commemorate the state's centenary, it was later rebuilt in cement on the same site. Today, it stands as an impressively accurate full-scale replica of the original Greek temple."

"Did you know that Nashville was home to a full-scale replica of the Parthenon?. Located in the heart of Centennial Park with paths and open areas for picnics and sports, there is something for everyone here. Inside the Parthenon is an art museum which for only $6 is a real bargain."

"We were sitting in the car trying to figure out where to try next, considering looking for an IHOP or Shoney’s so we could skip the lines, when Charlie noticed the Lipstick Lounge across the street. They were advertising brunch and had no line out the door like the others so we went for it. A few minutes after ordering our drinks and finally taking in our surroundings (the picture of the guy in a banana hammock on the wall!), we started to realize where we were at. Aaaand…it was actually a gay bar."

"There is really never a day where lunch at The Food Company or an evening with cocktails at The Greenhouse isn’t a wishful scenario. Pick any one of the beloved sandwiches, wraps and salads from Food Co. and enjoy a pleasant afternoon in the bright and lush greenhouse “watering hole.” From lunch to the evening and well into the night, this very green patio is certainly dreamy."

"Pearl Diver is definitely island-themed, from the palm frond wallpaper and green booths to the mai tais and daiquiris on the menu. But instead of feeling like you’re at a child’s Hawaii-themed birthday party, you’re in East Nashville drinking cocktails that hold up against any other bar’s in town. When it’s warm enough, grab a spot on the patio or rent a private cabana with a group that promises not to make bad lei’d puns."

"Yes, you can enjoy an outdoor cabana right here in Nashville. Take a step into the tropics at Pearl Diver, where the patio is complete with picnic tables, a small fire pit and seriously amazing cocktails and bites."

"With the heaters on and roofed portion of their patio now enclosed, Pearl Driver has a nice and toasty spot to toast with your friends. Sign up for Do615 updates for more stuff like this!"

"Country duo Florida Georgia Line's Cruise Rooftop Bar is built for all-day partying to the sights of the Nashville skyline. Live music daily, focused on today's country, is a house specialty as is its own Old Camp Whiskey, as featured in "Party People," (Old Camp Peach Pecan, pear liqueur, lemon juice, honey syrup, soda)."

"A post shared by ʜᴇᴄᴛᴏʀ (@hsanmarx) on Nov 2, 2019 at 3:51pm PDT. Party all day with some cold cocktails and views of the river and the city’s skyline at this cozy rooftop bar. FGL House offers an extensive menu of Southern-inspired dishes, drinks, and live music all day."

"FGL House from Florida Georgia Line boasts a large rooftop with views that span both sides of the river. Enjoy local craft beers and cocktails while soaking up the sun or evening air. FGL House also serves Southern-style cuisine with California flair, if hunger strikes."

"Opened in 2016 by friends and Murfreesboro natives Paul Vaughn and Kavon Togrye, the brewery focuses on hop-forward American styles and barrel-aged beers. Here, you can enjoy a flight with friends in the comfy taproom lounge with its plush antique furniture, speakeasy-style bar, and crystal chandelier. You can also purchase a select variety of mainstays and seasonals in cans to-go, and bring your kids, dogs, and food to the patio."

"Local cool kid brewery Bearded Iris is putting out some of the most sought-after, hop-forward beers in Nashville. Located in Germantown, its original taproom is also its production facility. Although Bearded Iris has successfully dipped its toes in other styles of beer, such as fruited kettle sours, lagers, and pastry stouts, it’s crushing the hop game by cranking out a steady flow of dry-hopped, imperial, and double IPAs."

"East Germantown, one of Nashville’s budding neighborhoods, mixes and matches lofts and warehouses as befits the city’s urban transformation. Comfortably nestled amongst developments new and old is Bearded Iris Brewing, which is itself styled on division. On one side, the taproom, where a classic, speakeasy-style bar holds the center, and on the other, the brewery itself, with all of its equipment open for visitors to see."

"This dreamy chocolate chip concoction, packed with actual chunks, not chips, is only slightly outdone by Bread & Co.'s peanut butter chocolate chunk cookie.2525 West End Ave, plus other locations. 615-329-1400; breadandcompany.com"

"With a brand new location on 12 South, Sprinkles is quite the destination to say the least. With a line out the door almost every night, you are bound to love your Sprinkles experience. The cupcakes are moist and and light on the inside and the frosting is rich and creamy: what more could you ask for?"

"The Cupcake Collection is a destination for locals and tourists looking for a sweet cupcake experience. The bakery is housed inside the family’s living room which welcomes the customers as guests. Baked from scratch, the owners have their own cupcake recipes made from their passion."

"Situated a little away from the busy downtown area, this elegant restaurant offers upscale American comfort food. The simple exterior does not do justice to the culinary delights that await you. Sunday brunch here is a delight with omelets, waffles, crab bisque, biscuits, a chocolate fountain, and much more."

"From the beautiful historic mansion to the southern staples, Mere Bulles provides a truly picturesque setting for Sunday brunch. Located in Maryland Farms, this historic restaurant is ideal for outdoor dining, private events and special occasions."

"One of Nashville's newest fine-dining restaurants, coming all the way from Austin, TX. Not only is the food delicious, but the atmosphere included makes the whole experience that much more fancy. Downstairs you can find some live music and a cocktail bar, or you can opt for more intimate dining on the higher floors — including balcony seating just off of Broadway."

"The swanky seafood and steak chain from Texas opened its first Tennessee location in April, with oyster platters, opulent shellfish towers, prime seafood entrees, and steaks aplenty."
