The Broadway Brewhouse & Mojo is Louisiana Cajun-style cooking in a casual environment, served up with the largest selection of beer in town, making this establishment a popular nightspot. Jambalaya and gumbo are never short on heat and are always chock full of crawfish, unlike some of the other so called Cajun eateries around town. Lovers of Southwestern food will be thrilled to find tortilla dishes loaded with rice and beans, rich sauces and hearty spices.

The Pharmacy Burger Parlor & Beer Garden combines the feeling of an old-fashioned drug store soda shop with some pretty amazing German-American fare. For a good price, customers can get a variety of different import beers on tap, a delicious milkshake and their choice from a great selection of burgers and brats with thick-cut fries on the side. The beer garden at the Pharmacy offers two levels of seating and a nostalgic longing for a trip across the pond. A stop at this Nashville hot spot is well worth the time for any local or visitor to Music City. -Lynn-nore Chittom
