Santa's Pub

Now run by the grandsons of founder Elmer Denzel “Santa” Irwin, the room holds fast to a stripped-down tradition. The dive serves beer only with no food, directing all the focus toward cold drinks and the karaoke stage. The crowd of locals and visitors shares the floor under a few famously direct house rules, most notably that there is no cussin' on the mic. It functions as a resilient, welcoming slice of Old Nashville with zero pretense.
