The Ultimate Date Night in Germantown
Finding a perfect match in Nashville may not be the easiest, but at least the city is packed with plenty of bars, restaurants and activities. These bars and restaurants can serve as a solid setting for anything from a one-drink date night to a picture perfect proposal night. Either way, there is no shortage of fun date night options!
Starting us off..
Mother’s Ruin
Mother’s Ruin is bar service only. All the food and beverages are ordered directly through your favorite bartenders. They’ve taken a historic, uniquely Nashville space and totally New York-i-fied it, although they left the exposed brick walls, hardwood floors, and iconic Germantown exterior intact. Perfect environment to kick off your date night!
