In Short
It may be difficult to believe this cute neighborhood joint buried in East Nashville used to be a laundromat. The cozy, industrial interior is smartly pulled together with colorful art and charming, shabby-chic furnishings. It's a perfect spot for hanging out with friends, listening to live music or enjoying a meal off of the seasonally changing menu and a cold beer. The vibe here is all about family fun.

I've been going to the Family Wash for about 4 years now. It's been through some changes, but I have always had a pleasant experience there. The atmosphere is great and food is very good and healthy. Sometimes service can be slow, but I think this is because it's a relaxed atmosphere.

First off, Jamie Rubin's Family Wash, is like Jamie. The Family Wash never tries to be, or pretends to be hip. However, because of Jamie's generous, welcoming good nature and great musical taste. It just is, in an unpretentious way. The place is casual, like you are visiting a friend's house, and the food is very good. Guinness will be back on tap this April as well as locally brewed Yazoo. Both have been greatly missed in the place, when there were some issues with the liquor license, and stupid Tennessee laws...but I digress. The camaraderie at the Family Wash is an important ingredient found in any successful neighborhood restaurants. It is a welcoming environment where I have met neighbors, made new friends and enjoyed a tasty pint and a pie. And the music is diverse & eclectic and a nod to Jamie's good taste.

The Family Wash Rocks! I went to hear the music which was top notch and will go back for the food. It's rare that a club that offers great music also offers great food. The new chef, Greg O'Loughlin has added a totally new dimension to the Family Wash. The music has always been the big draw but now there is also the food that calls you back. The food tastes like "home". I highly recommend the Veggie Sheppard?s Pie, and the brie wrapped in filo and topped with cranberries and honey. The menu is an eclectic one but somehow it seems to a make all the selections fit together beautifully.
