Frommer's "Chef-owner Margot McCormack’s cozy brick cafe in East Nashville is a charmer, a 1930s-era building with flower boxes and exposed brick walls that was originally a service station" Full review

The stone bar has been one of the best spots to have a cocktail for more than 15 years, with interesting wines by the glass, limoncello, and sophisticated cocktails to choose from.
