From the moment we walked into Red Phone Booth Nashville the upscale speakeasy vibe was obvious. The dim lighting, comfortable seating and the attentive staff made me feel like a regular instantly. I especially loved the craft cocktails that were expertly mixed and the quiet cigar lounge area added a nice touch. The employees were knowledgeable & engaging and went out of their way to make my husband’s birthday celebration special. The space was perfect & overall experience exceeded my expectations.

We didn’t end up eating this time, but the drinks alone made the visit absolutely worth it. Great selection, great flavor, and everything was crafted perfectly. Sage behind the bar was top notch. Friendly, attentive, and clearly knows his stuff. He made the whole experience feel easy and fun.
The vibe is what really sets this place apart. Cozy, low key, and relaxed. A refreshing change from the louder spots around Nashville. And the phone booth entrance is such a fun touch. It gives the whole place that hidden, VIP feel from the second you walk in.
Definitely a spot we’ll be back to.

After a little bit of a long wait outside we finally got in only to wait another 40 minutes to get service, but Conner came to our rescue and things started to happen, we even got free round from the assistant manager, this made our evening. Besides that, over all we had a blast. I really can’t wait until I get back there. Enjoyed a really good cigar.

My husband and I visited the Red Phone Booth Nashville for a night out and was impressed by the upscale speakeasy vibe on Broadway. The lounge felt luxurious, the cigar selection was excellent, and the craft cocktails were some of the best in Nashville. The staff were attentive, the music set the perfect mood, and the overall atmosphere made it a perfect Music City night out. I would definitely recommend this private event space for a special occasion. 5/5 stars – each star for customer care, product quality, atmosphere, speed, and value.
Eryn was our server/bartender and welcomed us with the best handcrafted drinks, specialty pizza, conversation and a sweet card for our 30th anniversary.
Great memories and experience visiting the Red Phone Booth in Nashville, TN. +5⭐️

From the moment we arrived at the Red Phone Booth, we were greeted by a kind young gentleman (we’re so sorry we forgot your name!) who immediately made us feel welcome. He graciously offered to take our photo, invited us in, and made sure we had the perfect spot to begin celebrating our 30th anniversary at your fantastic bar.
Shortly after, we were introduced to Shay—an extraordinary server who truly elevated our experience. She walked us through the menu, shared the fascinating history of the bar, and offered wonderful recommendations for both cocktails and food. My husband enjoyed the Rum Swizzle, while I had a delicious glass of wine. We followed Shay’s suggestions and ordered the Bistecca sliders and flatbread—and to our delight, the food was absolutely incredible! Everything was fresh, flavorful, and made with top-quality ingredients.
What truly made the night unforgettable was Shay’s thoughtful gesture. Knowing we were celebrating our anniversary, she surprised us with a personalized, handwritten card signed by the entire staff. It was such a heartfelt touch that made us feel genuinely celebrated.
The Red Phone Booth is an absolute 10 out of 10—a true hidden gem in Nashville. Thank you for making our anniversary night so special!

This place has been on our radar for years, however we never took the time to check it out…that was until now! Holy cow what an AMAZING experience! The place itself, is incredible. Super chic and elegant. Taking you back in time to when elegance was appreciated and respected. Then there were the cocktails. Truly an experience in themselves. The thought, time and expertise that went into every single drink, was beyond impressive. ALL of them that we had, were amazing! Finally, the girls! It was like we were old friends who hadn’t seen each other in years. Cassidy is the absolute BEST bartender we have ever had. She is the sweetest, most attentive and truly just a cool cat! Erin is the funniest, silliest and fun person around!! We were able to go two nights in a row and while we love Broadway, this is where we spend our time when we’re back in town!!!! We miss you girls already and are planning another trip down sooner than later!!!

Cocktails are all the same price ($16), which is reasonable for how upscale the place is, and were excellent. Vibes are immaculate, music was excellent, and service was perfect. The truffle pizza was super good as well.
Parking was the only complaint; it’s about $10/hr in nearby lots.

The name of this place is very literal if you ever go here. This is a speakeasy / cigar lounge in Nashville. One of my friends found out about this place and insisted we go while we were in Nashville for a girls weekend.
1) you need a code to get it. We were able to get the code from the front desk of the hotel we stayed at. It was pretty cool because we found the actual red phone booth, and the code is a telephone number you dial on the rotary phone. If you put the correct code in, there is a door that opens and the bouncer lets you in.
2) the food was pretty good; we ordered the pizza. They also served old timey cocktails. The vibe was swanky and a pretty unique experience.
3) this place is also a cigar lounge, and holy smoke, no pun intended. There was a large amount of cigar smoke and not much ventilation. We would have probably stayed longer except the smokey air got to be too much and my friends and I started getting headaches from it.
If you are ok with the smoke, you will probably enjoy this place. The overall concept is cool.
