M.L.Rose Neighborhood Pub is a locally owned group of lively, laid-back pubs, founded in Nashville, TN in 2008. The original Melrose location quickly became a local favorite—a go-to hangout for friends, family and neighbors where you could get out without getting fancy. We’re located on 8th Avenue near 12 South. Every M.L.Rose offers an eclectic, lived-in space with seasonal beer and cocktails, delicious pub fare and burgers, and those famously crisp waffle fries. More than anything, M.L.Rose is about being a good neighbor—bringing people together and adding a spark of energy and community to every neighborhood we’re in.
Bustling eatery serving a variety of craft beers along with down-home burgers & sweet potato fries.

Came here with a very large group 15+ – for a birthday party and they were able to accommodate everyone with no issues, this would be a great place for a larger group.
The servers and all the staff were really nice and the food tasted so good. Everyone was happy with their burgers and they had a huge selection of beer and alcohol.
They host a lot of events and we’re eager to come back! Check out the website for things going on at this location and follow Kenna.Claire on IG for more.

My co workers and I probably go at least once a month to the Melrose location, and its great every time! The woman bartender at lunch (cant remember her name) is always nice, great service. Most recently I got the stout burger with waffle fries on a pretzel bun. Im glad its back! Wish they would bring the burger of the month specials back though. Always a solid place with great beer!

This was my first time eating at this place. I liked the environment as it’s a standard sports bar location, but it had more of a ‘homey’ feeling, as if I belonged there (I have kids these kids’ ages that work there lol!!) but I didn’t feel out of place or unwanted.
The waitress was so kind and polite! Also, she was patient with me as I ordered my food and my food came out pretty quickly! I had the ANM.L. style burger with a salad. I loved it! I tasted great! I definitely want to go back!!

My husband and I went around an hour before closing and there was only one other table of guest. Service was great however keep driving if you are just going for diner this is truly just a place to drink and snack on appetizers to not get to intoxicated. We paid $40+ for 2 burgers and waffle fries that were so hard I could not eat for fear of chipping a tooth. I played it safe went with patty melt which was on marble rye and way over toasted and ending up leaving half of it so had it not been for the free appetizer you get for downloading the app I would have spent $50 with tip and went home hungry. The cheese curd appetizer was really good but the buck stops there. Very disappointing for this girl and want be back. I would have gotten more food off the value meal at McDonald’s and been able to chew it too!

And so it was that we found ourselves again on the old avenue where the lights never fully went out, only dimmed long enough to remember the dark, the place called Melrose where the past sat still and sweating in its glass and the present, charred and peppered, arrived on a bun. We went because we needed a place that could hold us without asking too much, a place where the beer ran cold and the burgers ran hot and nothing was taken too seriously except the flavor.
ML Rose. It doesn’t even sound like a place, not really. It sounds like someone you once knew—sweet and sharp and unapologetically local, someone who could flip a table over in joy or sorrow and still make you laugh as she did it. That’s what the place is. Brick and wood and the hum of long conversations layered like the rings inside a fallen tree, music from the back half of your life, and servers who move like they’ve been here longer than the floor has.
We ordered like pilgrims who’d finally reached the tavern of their imagining—sweet potato waffle fries so crisp they could have echoed, burgers stacked tall like monuments to indecision, dripping with memory and sauce, and a flight of something cold and hoppy that tasted like someone had canned the idea of a Nashville summer. The table was crowded with baskets and tin cups and ketchup bottles that had seen better days, and none of it mattered because everything tasted like the first time you ever knew bar food could be holy.
There’s a rhythm to ML Rose, the Melrose one—the original, the pulse. You don’t go there to be seen, you go there to remember what it feels like to be full, to be simple, to sit with your people while the TVs blink out half-watched games and the windows sweat. It’s loud and it’s lived-in and it’s perfect in that crooked way that only local places ever manage to be.
And as we left—bellied and a little buzzed, brushing salt from our fingers like ancient grains—we said nothing, because nothing needed saying. We’d been there. We’d eaten. We’d return.

It’s always a favorite. Great place to stop on for a couple of quick drinks and a bite to eat. Service is always Fabalous. Matt, our waiter, was very attentive and friendly and made sure to ask if we had been and was ready with suggestions. If in Nashville and you see this establishment, definitely stop in for craft beer (grab a flight), specialty drinks, and some good food.

Boring burger- boring fries. Sat at bar and had a very disappointing meal. Was able to substitute a regular sized patty vs the smashburgers they typically serve.
The waffle fries were cold and chewy- and locals know that this place serves mediocre food. I had a meeting with a Predators employee the next day and he asked how the fires were before I said a word.
Good selection of Whisky behind the bar but no list with prices- so you have to ask the bartender for pricing. I was not given the premium pours menu that is posted on line. But hell that menu has no prices….places that make me guess the bottle and ask for the cost of a pour drive me nuts. Never again.

Visiting Nashville from out of town and staying in the neighbourhood. Had dinner at this place our first night and it knocked it out of the park! Our server Anna was lovely, she was so kind and took great care of us with food recommendations. She is a rockstar! The food was delicious, hot and quick. Thank you to the kitchen staff!! Delicious! Highly recommend the pretzel bites with the queso, the Belgian burger and the Mediterranean salad. All exceeded our expectations!

I love ML Rose.
This is the second location I’ve gone to and Zoe, information giver and tabletender extraordinaire, made this visit fantastic.
It’s a long, narrow room with tons of seating and cool interior decor.
Great beer list, killer burgers, decent fries.
The food and service are great but they’ve become so expensive that they’ve priced me out of the market.
Here’s the Breakdown:
Great Burger +1 star; Zoe (Rockstar) +1 stars; cool interior +1 star; excellent beer list +1 star; lots of choices +1 star; $30 for a burger and beer -1 star.
I really like them but can’t justify the price anymore. I’d go back for special occasions but not for lunch.

I just moved to the neighborhood and M.L.Rose is now on my list of top restaurants in Nashville. My favorite thing I’ve tried so far is the Brunchwrap Supreme available during their weekend brunch. Friends also have rave reviews about the Jam Burger, the Good Morning Burger, and the June burger of the month, the Cacio E Pepe Burger.
One of my favorite things is their waffle fries, both original and sweet potato. One of the best fries I’ve ever had!
