Walked in for a quick bite and decided on the ribs, mac and cheese, beans, and a cornbread muffin, paired with a cold Blue Moon. I headed up to the second floor where the staff was attentive and welcoming. For the middle of the day, I was impressed, there was still a solid crowd and even two live bands playing. The food came out quickly and was delicious. The ribs were sweet with a bit of heat, fall-apart tender, and well-seasoned. Surprisingly, my favorites were the beans and the cornbread muffin, the beans had just the right amount of spice balanced with smooth, smoky flavor, and the muffin was spot on. The only part that fell short was the shell mac and cheese. It looked great but was lukewarm and slightly underwhelming. Overall, though, between the atmosphere, live music, and friendly staff, I’d definitely come back. Solid spot if you’re on the fence about trying it.

I came in on a rainy Sunday it wasn't busy but still had live music they have two sides of the place a bigger and a smaller side. My waitress/ bartender was Joey she did a great job and recommended the dry rub chicken wings and I got the ribs as well. Both were fantastic. Cornbread was delicious. Fries were nice and fresh. Give you wet naps. Very nice place. Good value I enjoyed myself here

Stopped in for lunch since I found out that my favorite bbq spot (jacks) is now permanently closed. The pulled pork sandwich was surprisingly good! Nice portion for a sandwich, very filling. Atmosphere is nice, they had an acoustic band singing a mix of 90s covers. Great spot to grab food on Broadway and enjoy the day.

Historic honky tonk with cold beer, good drinks and atmosphere. It’s a good place.. not great as there is plenty of competition on Broadway, but it’s worth a stop in. We were there in the afternoon, so the bands playing were good.. they have several floors so you can get a drink and enjoy the band of your choice. Be aware.. this is not a camera friendly establishment… so security will ask you to park your DSLR.. “camera phones are ok. Downer for me.. but it’s not uncommon in this setting.

Ripley’s Honky Tonk is everything you want from Broadway—high energy, great live music, and a fun crowd. Multiple floors with different bands going at once, so you can bounce around and find your vibe. Drinks were solid, staff kept things moving even when it was busy, and the atmosphere was electric. If you’re in Nashville and want the full honky-tonk experience, this is a must stop

Rippy’s Honky Tonk Broadway, Nashville If I could give 10 stars, I absolutely would! This was one of my favorite experiences in downtown Nashville. I ordered chicken with french fries and it was to die for. Delicious, fresh and hot. They had several bands playing throughout the night, and every single one was amazing. The live music, the energy, the people dancing… it is the Nashville vibe that I love so much. The service was excellent and fast, even with how busy they were. This is my third time in Nashville, and Rippy’s is always a must visit for me. I love the people here and everyone knows how to enjoy themselves, have fun, and create an unforgettable atmosphere. I will definitely be returning. Rippy’s Honky Tonk is pure Nashville magic!

My wife wanted catfish and this place came up on her search. It was early on a Sunday and the place was moderately busy. We were able to grab two seats at the bar and gal working took great care of us. Our food arrived and we were blown away by the amount and quality. Enough so to overlook the plastic utensils. The fish was excellent and the pulled pork sandwich was enormous. What a feast. We definitely would come back
