Located in a small strip mall outside of downtown Nashville, the 100 seat venue is unassuming in appearance but some of the most significant songwriters and artists have performed on this stage. « less

The music is unbelievable. You sit so close to the performers you can touch them. It's crowded and close and fun! Food is okay but the concert "in the round" is unique and warm. more

We went on Saturday night, August 22, 2009. Was not sure what to expect. It was ok, but I probably will not go back. more

We came all the way from Michigan to see our son who played in a featured band . We decided to have something to eat, the food was very good, but the service was bad, our waitress was hanging around tne bar and was not watching to see if anyone needed anything.

My husband and I made reservations for Sat. 8/8 for the 6pm show. We arrived a bit early and there was quite a long line (people without reservations waiting to get in). We went right in and they sat us at our table. The show was "in the round" format, with 4 musicians taking turns with their songs. These are... more

While in Nashville you really need to take the time to visit the Bluebird cafe if you have the time. If possible make reservations. I went on a writers night and an open mic night and really enjoyed both. My only dissappointment was that if you go the later show and no body wants to leave from the previous show... more

The Cowgirl "Becky Hobbs" was awesome on the piano and of course it was neat to find out she too was from Oklahoma.The gals were really friendly, the food was not that bad for a little club, Be sure... more

If you love hearing your favorite country songs sung by the songwriters that wrote them, you will love the Bluebird. Don't go for the food because it's only to make some extra money to keep the doors open but it is an amazing place for music lovers! There is nothing like it anywhere else! more

The music was fantastic, as was the atmosphere. The problem was the bad service! We apparently sat in the only four seats in the house that are not served by the wait staff, so we had to leave our seats in the midst of the performance to buy our own drinks at the crowded bar, stepping in front of everyone... more

My sister and I recently went to the Bluebird Cafe on open mic night. It was writers night and we spent three hours listening to mostly quality musicians singing their original songs. One of the best parts was that it was off the beaten path and a little less touristy than all the other things we did. Be aware that... more
