GRAY’S on Main

Nashville has become somewhat of a mecca within the craft cocktail and southern haute cuisine scene. And GRAY’S on Main is upping the game with their epicurean cocktails that celebrate the brandy culture of the late 19th century. What’s even more intriguing, is that they’re acing the movement while strategically paying homage to their building’s roots.

Formally a pharmacy known as Gray Drug Co., you’ll now find a thriving 3-story restaurant and bar housed in the 1876 Victorian building. Immersed in its own rich history, owner Michael Cole kept all the original wood floors, tin ceilings, wall finishes, and select pharmacy memorabilia as seen on the walls and in display cases — the design and architecture is truly something else.

This is definitely the place to revel in fine Tennessee dining and some home run sips.
