8th Ave S

Between the Gulch and Melrose is 8th Avenue South, home of some of Nashville’s most recognized names, including Zanies Comedy Club, The Basement, and Gruhn Guitars. This neighborhood has long been a destination to grab a coffee and 8th and Roast or to pick up a special furniture piece at Preservation Station.

There’s a blend of new and old on 8th Ave South, which is why the area is attractive to so many people. Eat some Thai at the Smiling Elephant, pop-in to Starland Vintage & Unusual for some incredible vintage goods, grab sweets from Baked on 8th, then catch a comedy show from someone like Pauly Shore at Zanies. You can definitely have a wide-variety of entertaining experiences during your visit to the 8th Ave South neighborhood.
