Local Love Happy Hour

Virgin Hotels Nashville runs its Local Love Happy Hour daily from 3 PM to 6 PM at the Commons Club, the hotel's ground-floor restaurant and cocktail bar. It's right in the heart of Music Row, so it's an easy spot to drop into if you're already working or hanging around the neighborhood during the day.

The deals are straightforward: $2 oysters, $8 glasses of wine, $5 drafts, and $10 classic cocktails, with the Aperol Spritz and Espresso Martini listed as the go-to classics. It's the kind of spread that works whether you're just stopping in for a quick drink after a meeting or settling in for a few rounds with friends.

Commons Club is run by Chef Adam Terhune, a Kentucky native who moved to Nashville in June 2009 and trained alongside Julia Sullivan of Henrietta Red and Julia Jaksic of Cafe Roze. The kitchen draws on its own culinary garden, and there's an exclusive chef's table for those who want to sit close to the action. The bar also books live entertainment, and The Shag Room serves as an intimate lounge for smaller groups.

Beyond the food and drinks, the venue hosts songwriter showcases, DJs, and downtown drag brunches, so it does more than just the happy hour. The Local Love deals run every day from 3 PM to 6 PM at Commons Club, located inside Virgin Hotels Nashville at 1 Music Square W, Nashville, TN 37203.
