Hubba Hubba Tiki Tonk

Such a cool eclectic atmosphere, every square inch of the walls and ceiling have neat things to look at. Fun drinks and music and lots of nostalgic triggers in the decor from the 70's and 80's.

Exactly the vibe we were looking for for a quick bite and drinks on a Friday night! Atmosphere is awesome and the staff are super friendly. Loved the drink selection (and NA options). Make sure to check out BraveIdiot’s food truck out back - going to be craving that for a long time coming!

Quite possibly one of the coolest bars I've been to. Epic decor (be sure to check out both bathrooms), stellar drinks, fantastic staff. Will definitely make it a point to come back anytime I'm in Nashville!

My boyfriend and I were in Nashville for 2 days over the weekend for his birthday. We decided to spend our last night in East Nashville. The bar that piqued my interest here was Hubba Hubba so we made that our first stop after dinner. Love the 80's/90's theme! There's a little rock n' roll, a little honky tonk. Love that they serve tiki drinks! It's colorful and a little bit of everything! The names of the drinks were also really fun! It's reminiscent of the Young Joni speakeasy menu if you've been to Minneapolis. The bartender was kind of suspicious when I asked her for their prettiest, and tastiest drink. I get it. I bartended for 7 years. I probably would've laughed if someone asked me that, but I've gotta do it for the 'gram! When you travel to a different place every week you learn to ask the questions up-front so that you don't waste yours or the bartender's time. I always look for a little bit of guidance. The people who know their product best are the employees! The bartender, Patience, warmed up to us when she found out we were there for a short visit and wanted to see what they were known for. Little did we know, they're new! The bartender gave us the whole history of the place as well as informed us of future plans. We are excited to come back and see how the place changes! We also met the owner, Dave, who is super friendly and gave us tips on where to go next. We got the Tiki La Rue to share since we were planning on going to quite a few bars Sunday night. The cocktail was delicious and I thought the amount of ice was adequate. It was served in a boot. Super cute! It was honestly the perfect amount between my boyfriend and I. It set us up for a great rest of the night in East Nashville!

I tried the new bar, Hubba Hubba Tiki Tonk. It's located next door to No Quarter. I'm not fully sure how I feel about it yet. The decor is cool in that it's really 80s and a blast to the past. It's a divey-feel, which I enjoyed. It's not Dino's type divey, but it's definitely its own vibe. As far as the drinks we experienced, we were a bit underwhelmed. The names of the drinks are fun, but you're paying $14+ for a drink with a LOT of ice. I would have liked it to have more of the drink and less of the ice that watered it down quickly. The bartender was cool. He gave me a birthday shot and was really hospitable with the guests he served. His personality shined through as he conversed with his patrons. Being brand new, I understand that it will take time to come into its own. I look forward to seeing how that goes and do plan to return.

We had an amazing night here. Fun decorations and vibes throughout. Karaoke started at 10pm on Saturday. The bartenders (Chelsea and Savanna) were some of the sweetest people I’ve ever met. Also the special drinks that Chelsea made for me were delicious! I would definitely return

Hubba Hubba Tiki Tonk disappointed the five people in our party who visited. 1) the drinks were all sub par. 2) they actually played the same song 5 times in a row on the speaker. We counted. 3) the bartender was flirting with a girl and was completely absent from his duties. A group of four left because he took so long to even get started on their drinks. I will say that there were less than ten people in this bar in all. For a bar describing their own deep personal history,, I’m surprised at this location’s brand new, learning, and unprofessional vibe. Keep in mind that most reviews here are negative experiences. Make your own decision on this place, and know that I was thoroughly entertained by how chaotic and unprofessional the bar was.

I almost want to gatekeep it, but Hubba Hubba is one of the best bars in Nashville. Perfect for when you want a drink but also want to talk, or if you're solo you can make quick friends with the friendly owner and staff. Great place that I always take people to when they visit!
