Skull's Rainbow Room

Tucked 222 feet below ground on Printers Alley, Skull's Rainbow Room has been a Nashville legend since 1948. This is where the icons came: Elvis, Johnny Cash, and countless other musicians who craved the sultry combination of live jazz, craft cocktails, and late-night burlesque. The 4,000-square-foot basement space is a full sensory experience. You'll find skilled bartenders crafting signature cocktails with house-made ingredients, while a live jazz band sets the mood nightly. Thursday through Sunday nights bring the burlesque performances that cemented this place in Music City's storied nightlife history. This is steakhouse dining meets speakeasy swagger, with seafood that holds its own alongside perfectly poured spirits. Walk in and you're stepping into one of Nashville's most celebrated dining and entertainment destinations.
