Editorial Review for Tribe – by Jonathan Flax
In Short
A huge, rectangular bar is the centerpiece for this stylishly appointed venue, an instant hit with both the alternative-lifestyle set and trendy professionals. Large monitors pump a steady rotation of Madonna, Kylie and other pop divas, though at a volume that promotes conversation. The second level, filled with couches and cocktail tables, affords a secluded mingling spot. A roomy, upscale and largely soundproof restaurant resides off the small cement dance floor, behind big black doors.

This is by far one of my favorite places in Nashville. It is a "gay bar" but that doesn't mean that you have to be gay to go in and enjoy yourself. It is very casual, yet quite upscale at the same time. Even the smokers are not relegated to freezing in some outside corner. The staff is very good (Brandon is a great waiter) and the drinks are great (check out TJ, he makes some of the best!). I highly recommend Tribe for meeting some people and having a good evening out.
Pros: great ambience, great service, good people
Cons: parking can be hard to find

I don't normally do the bar/club scene but I was in town for the night and thought what the hell...the weather was nice and it was within walking distance (for me)... Tribe is a nicely decorated place and best of all it was NON-SMOKING...something I surely wasn't expecting at a gay bar... However...I didn't find the bartenders or crowd all that friendly...outside of the nasty old man that followed me into the restroom...I don't expect bartenders to fawn over customers, but it wasn't crowded and I was basically ignored for 5-10 minutes before I was asked what I would like to drink... The music was way too loud for the number of people in the bar and I didn't recognize any of the videos or music outside of "like a virgin" and that spectacle of Britney Spears on that recent awards show...but then again, I don't go to bars, nor do I listen to pop/hip-hop/rap music... All in all...on my next visit to Nashville, if I go out...it won't be to this establishment.
Pros: Non-Smoking
Cons: Too Loud, Service Marginal
