Mickey’s Tavern is a neighborhood bar located in East Nashville, Tennessee. The tavern describes itself as a “World Famous Neighborhood Bar” where East Nashville’s locals can gather and drink. It offers a casual, non-smoking environment with bar games, a small food menu, and a rotating selection of beers on tap, positioning itself as a relaxed local hangout rather than a music venue.
Menu
Mickey’s Tavern serves a focused food menu alongside its drinks. Food items include a Hot Ham and Cheese sandwich and a Grilled Cheese, available with a choice of Swiss or cheddar cheese. Sandwiches are served with chips, with options that include regular, sweet onion, jalapeno, or barbecue.
The tavern offers a rotating draft beer selection. Beers listed on tap include Shiner Bock, Blue Moon, Founders All Day IPA, Coors Banquet, Yuengling, Modelo, and Lagunitas Hazy Wonder, along with a seasonal tap. A happy hour is offered with half-off wells, drafts, and domestics until 6pm, giving regulars a daily discount window on house pours and draft beer.
The food offering is intentionally simple, built around warm sandwiches and chips rather than a full kitchen menu, which fits the tavern’s role as a place to drink and socialize. The draft list mixes familiar domestic options such as Coors Banquet and Yuengling with craft and import selections like Founders All Day IPA, Lagunitas Hazy Wonder, and Modelo, and the seasonal tap means the lineup can shift over time. Together with the happy hour pricing, the menu and beer selection are geared toward neighborhood regulars looking for an affordable, easygoing spot.
