What People Are Saying About Tootsie's Orchid Lounge

In Short
In the '60s, owner "Tootsie" Bess had a soft spot for struggling writers and nurtured the stomachs--and bar tabs--of greats like Roger Miller, Kris Kristofferson and Willie Nelson. Today, the purple facade anchors Lower Broadway's colorful past, and the interior walls are crowded with publicity stills of the greats, the hopefuls and never-wills who came to town chasing dreams. Ultimately, this is the place locals insist on taking visitors when touring Nashville's nightlife.

If your looking for a great time with live music, this is the place to go! Live music from 11 am through 2:30 am! Always great service and great bands! Friendly, hard working staff.

This is the last place on Broadway I'd take anyone!! It was awful! Wearing make-up doesnt make you beautiful....SMILE once in awhile! Oh yeah, it helps if girls can get drinks from the bar...we have money too! I always tell my out of town guests that they are more than welcome to go to Tootsies if they want, but I'll be somewhere...ANYWHERE...else on the street!

i am a performer and have sang for over 40 years. just to go in and see the bands, people, photos on walls,and everyone just haveing a great time.i was some dissappointed that the bands performers were'nt dress up more and u know the flashy stuff butthats just my thing.. i read the reviews and i disagree with those who had bad service or didnt like. go to spargo in l.a if u need to be disappointed. i loved that upstairs and down had music, staff was very friendly and my favorite person billy block and band was there, he is such a great m.c that u feel like your family and start tapping your feet and yelling ah right u go baby yea. my advice is for every one to walk in as if you your going to have the time of your life.ya all rock!!
