Grandpa Bar
1501 Herman St, Nashville, TN
Crema's Take
“Grandpa Bar is a cozy Nashville gem where creative espresso martinis steal the show, from classics to inventive seasonal variations like chocolate-covered strawberry that have visitors raving. The warmth here extends beyond expertly crafted drinks to genuine hospitality—bartenders like Micah and Hannah remember you're a person, not just an order, making each visit feel like catching up with an old friend. It's the kind of place where you linger over a perfectly made drink in a welcoming atmosphere, whether you're meeting someone special or just savoring a moment of craft coffee cocktail bliss.”

Absolutely amazing experience! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. The service was excellent — attentive, friendly, and on point the entire time. The drinks were outstanding. Not only were they beautifully presented (see photos!), but they tasted just as good as they looked. The espresso-style cocktail with the heart detail was smooth and perfectly balanced, and the old-fashioned style drink was bold, crisp, and expertly crafted. You can tell the bartenders take pride in what they do. Great place, excellent service, and really good drinks. We’ll definitely be back! 🍸🔥
Grandpa Bar was awesome! Micah was welcoming and made a great espresso martini. We liked the chocolate-covered strawberry espresso martini and the Mocha Chino. We really think they should change the name to the Micah Chino, though.
If you love espresso martini’s, you’ll love this place! You can get your classic version or try on of their more curated flavored ones! They genuinely tasted amazing! We went during the fall/holiday season and they had seasonal drink flavors! And the bartenders were very friendly! Wish we had Grandpa Bar in Atlanta, because we’re obsessed and the atmosphere was intimate and chill.
Grandpa Bar is a cozy local bar that serves amazing craft cocktails. Hannah our bartender was spectacular! Our drinks were made to perfection and simply devine. Definitely a must visit if in Nashville.
Had a great experience here! The drinks were top-notch. I don’t really love espresso martinis, but I loved this one! And got a candle to take home that matches the drink. Will definitely come back.
