Dierks Bentley’s bar Whiskey Row in Nashville is definitely one of the must-visit destinations in Lower Broadway’s honky-tonk district. Over the past two years, celebrities like him, Blake Shelton, Jason Aldean, Florida Georgia Line, Luke Bryan, Kid Rock, and Miranda Lambert have all put up their own bars in the city’s main tourist strip. But Dierks Bentley’s bar has definitely been stealing attention since it opened last January 2018. 

Whiskey Row is located at the northwest corner of Fourth and Broadway and is just steps away from the iconic Ryman Auditorium. It’s actually a popular bar known by many country fans back in Bentley’s home state Arizona where it first started. And this is their third location and first in his adopted hometown – Nashville.

According to Bentley, this was the place where he used to perform every night and run up a beer tab bigger than the tips he received. And it felt full circle to actually open one of his bars here – just right up Ryman Auditorium – where a lot of country music artists look back as the place they got their start just like him. 

The 3-storey venue stands in one of Nashville’s most historic buildings from the late 1800s, which undoubtedly added charisma to the bar. On the first floor, you can take it easy, enjoy the atmosphere and sway to some live country tunes, and probably including some of our favorite Dierks Bentley songs. But if you want to dance the night away, then move up to the second and third floors, where you can party to popular songs played by their awesome DJs.

And of course, it also features a rooftop bar – the highest on Lower Broadway – where you can enjoy a nice view of downtown Nashville and of course, the Batman building as well. Make sure you make a pit stop here, even just once. 

They offer a full dining menu with their “American Gastropub” cuisine and, as its name goes, an extensive selection of whiskey as well as beers and signature craft cocktails. So you will definitely get a fill of good food and music here. 

Dierks Bentley‘s bar Whiskey Row in Nashville is spearheaded by Riot Hospitality Group. You can also check out their branches in Gilbert and Scottsdale, Arizona. And stay tuned for their newest location in Denver, Colorado which will open soon.
