Attaboy - Cocktail bar in Nashville - 8 Mcferrin Ave, USA

Concealed in a back alley Attaboy makes you wait outside to be seated. Yes, they can see you standing outside. Unremarkable otherwise building lets you know you are in a right place by a wall graffiti. I came for the specialty, the Penicillin ($20), which was a little too sweet, but enjoyable nevertheless. Attentive service and an intimate interior created a welcoming and relaxing atmosphere.

This place is BEYOND cool. It’s so sexy & swanky. Definitely a place to see & be seen in the most unpretentious way. Is dim-lit, with plenty of booth & bar seating & a pretty private room for larger parties. The staff was so incredibly friendly & personable. No menu here, you talk to your server/bartender, they gain knowledge of your general likes/dislikes/flavor profile preferences & comeback with an amazingly crafted, beautifully presented cocktail that will far exceed your expectations. As a guy, I just don’t seem to have as strong a pallet as other men I see at bars…I can’t stomach much dark liquor straight or without mixers, I’ve always loved how Old Fashioned’s look, but cough like a whimp at their invasive/bold flavors when I’ve attempted to drink them…I was made an untraditional take on an Old Fashioned here that was SO delicious & easy to sip. They really take into account who you are as a person & magically craft a tailor-made drink for you. It was such a fun, unique & unforgettable experience in the most beautiful environment. 10/10 reccomend!

Awesomely unique experience. Speakeasy style, walk up to the door and knock to get in. Bar is spunky and fun. Take a seat at the bar, there's no menu and you're asked your preferences. Minutes later a beautiful custom cocktail is brought to you. I was blown away. Peak creativity and class with these cocktails. Couldn't have just one. You've gotta check out attaboy

Hands down, this was an awesome experience. You have to wait outside until they have a table for you. Going inside, the lighting is mostly candlelight and sets a nice, intimate ambiance. As your server and/or bartender will explain to you, there is no drink menu. They ask you a series of questions and make a pretty customized drink based on your answers. They absolutely hit it out of the park with their suggestions during my visit. A little pricey, but what isn't in the city. You're paying for the experience, which is something I would definitely seek out again.

So much better than the New York attaboy! The staff was nice and explained so much about our drinks. Love the spacious room. I have been to the New York attaboy and was sick of their snobby attitude. This bar gave me such a great refreshing experience!

Hard to describe in words, this is a place you shouldn’t go by reviews and truly experience it first-hand at least once and form your own opinion (just like a Christopher Nolan’s movie)! What kinda business Keeps their doors shut to the customers when they’re OPEN for business.. they truly make you feel like it is YOUR honor and privilege to enter this magical world of cocktails when they allow you IN after 1.5 hrs of wait 😂 And then there’s no menu inside because we’re mysterious like that! You just tell them what you feel like at that moment and they whip up a cocktail to your taste on demand. Their bartenders are mixologists and are very talented to say the least. I liked my drink. The mood is so cozy and special. Dimly lit but just enough for you to experience the beauty in the decor. The tables are spaced interestingly in the space.. either too close or too apart. I doubt anyone will regret going there! A strong 4.5/5 for me.

One of my favorite bars in Nashville. Super knowledgeable craftsmen and crafts women behind the bar, customizing every delicious cocktail. Darker, sexy, hushed vibe inside with a beautifully intimate space and layout. Love this place for sure!!!

This was our last stop on this short trip to Nashville. It was 9pm on Sunday, July 9th. My boyfriend and I were greeted at the door and were taken to two seats at the bar shortly after. The seats steadily filled up around us, though there was no insane line that we had heard about. Extremely dark inside, but I kind of like that! The idea here is that you give the bartender a list of your preferred spirits and flavor profiles and they create something for you aligning with that combination. My boyfriend was served an All Hands on Deck which is like a Mezcal Manhattan. I requested a refreshing gin-based drink. It was delicious though I don't remember the name. Maybe the Gin-Gin Mule? My second drink was a creamy, banana cocktail. That was definitely my favorite! All drinks are $17. One of my friends from college decided he could meet up with us so the host graciously offered the corner bench area to us. No fuss, no muss. I really enjoyed the drink concept here, as well as the design. The staff was really nice and accommodating. I also thought it was cool that they carve their own ice. It just felt like a really nice, personalized experience.
