SoBro - Nashville, TN Area Guide

Country music comes alive south of Broadway

Musical Urban Downtown Bars Nightlife Museums

SoBro, named for being south of Broadway, is a lively part of Downtown Nashville that features bustling bars, eclectic restaurants, and a happening music scene. Between the live music performances on Honky Tonk Row and the city’s memorabilia at Music City Center, the Country Music Hall of Fame, the Johnny Cash Museum & Café, and Frist Art Museum, SoBro is an entertainment-filled neighborhood with an emphasis on country music and its impactful history.

If you’re a hockey fan, then you’ll be excited to know that Bridgestone Arena, home of the NHL’s Nashville Predators, is a hot spot in SoBro, along with delicious local restaurants like Flying Saucer Draught Emporium and Oak Steakhouse. Because of SoBro’s central location in Downtown Nashville, rent is a bit higher than in the suburbs of the city, but it’s worth it to be in walking distance of everything “Nashvegas” has to offer!
