New Vinyl Bar opening up on 2nd Ave N.

My family owns Mels Drive In on 2nd Ave N, and we’re opening something new in the back of the restaurant on May 29th, The bar is called Vinyl Vault, an American hi-fi vinyl cocktail bar.

The concept is inspired by vintage hi-fi listening bars with a speakeasy feel: vinyl DJs, great cocktails, mid-century design, and a focus on music + atmosphere.

We wanted to build a spot that feels intimate, nostalgic, and centered around really good sound and good people.

If that sounds like your thing, we’d love the support. Follow our Instagram for updates and opening info. Hope to see some of you there!

Hockey Game Thursday Night Bar?

Hello,
I am looking for advice on the best place to watch and most likely to be showing the Montreal-Buffalo hockey game Thursday night.
Is “After Friday” likely to have it? I tried calling and could not get through.
Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated thank you in advance!

Non-typical Bachelorette Day Drink Spots

My sister, for her bachelorette, has requested we dress as men to day drink around Nashville. Where would it be best to hop around in mustaches and wigs that people won't look at us like we are crazy? Most bachelorette day drink spots are 12 South or places like Hampton Social and that is definitely not the scene for this request haha. One night we are planning to hop around Broadway and another night in East so looking for something outside of those!
