Great for creative cocktails
Great for happy hour
Good for special occasions

Located across from Printers Alley, just two blocks from Broadway, Black Rabbit is a Restaurant & Bar with full service dinner (4PM Mon-Sat), Saturday Brunch (10AM - 2PM), the Best Happy Hour in Nashville 2022 (4-6 PM Mon-Sat; $6 Old Fashioneds, Margs, and Mules) and Live Music (9PM Fri-Sat) . The creative cocktails and large bourbon collection flow generously from the bar while steaks, chops, seafood, & local vegetables emanate from the wood-fire, open kitchen. Originally home to a furniture showroom 134 years ago and subsequently, the law office of Tommy Osborn, attorney to Jimmy Hoffa, Black Rabbit is writing their own chapter by reimagining what a local Nashville tavern and speakeasy would've been like during Prohibition... wood-fire cooking, strong cocktails, and a sophisticated atmosphere with genuine, relaxed hospitality. Locally owned and operated, we aim to show you our idea of home team hospitality when you visit Downtown Nashville.

Fabulous first visit. We were a little bit late for our reservation and they were great about it. The rabbit rolls were phenomenal. We also enjoyed the sourdough and apple crisp? salad. I ordered the elk and my husband the pork chop. Every plate was cleared. Our server was calm and relaxed and literally took care of everything. Kept the drinks coming. Dishes were all well-timed. The blueberry cobbler was the perfect ending. Heavy of the blueberry. Highly recommend this place.

We loved the food and the service was great. We asked to be seated close to the live music but it turned out to be too loud. We will know next time to ask to be seated further back in the restaurant.

Exceptional meal, great vibe, attentive service, and the band was entertaining. Our table of 4 split 2 entrees, 2 appetizers, and 2 sides - which was just the right amount of food.

Pleasantly surprised, exceeded expectations. Went for Saturday brunch and sat at bar Makayla. Rabbit-spam hash was fantastic. Tommy also checked in with us and talked story about their history, menu and the area.
