Nashville’s Printer’s Alley has been a center of live entertainment long before the recent proliferation of massive celebrity-themed honky tonks took over Lower Broad and began to draw hordes of tourists down the neon rainbow to their multi-story shrines of country music. Many of the traditional performance venues of Printer’s Alley have been transformed into boutique hotels over the years, but one spot is seeking to bring back the music (and the tourists) to the Alley.
Sea Salt Nashville has already become a local favorite since opening in 2017 for their farm-to-table menu and great cocktails, but people probably didn’t associate the restaurant with the history of their location on Printer’s Alley because of the fact that their entrance opened onto 3rd Avenue. The owners have recently invested in embracing that legacy by opening a new entrance from the back into the Alley and announcing that they are adding live music to their offering.
“We’ve been a part of Printers Alley since the day we opened in 2017, we love being a part of this town and in such an amazing area for live music,'' said Keith Zust owner and operator. He is happy to share that Sea Salt will now feature live music Tuesday and Wednesday from 8:00 until 10:00 pm and from 8:00 p.m. until midnight on Thursday through Saturday.
“The vision for Sea Salt Nashville has always been to create a place that serves unforgettable, locally sourced food that can be enjoyed more often than solely for special occasions. Now, we are adding late night to be enjoyed just the same” said Zust.
In addition to the new musical offerings, Sea Salt will serve a new late night menu to keep the party pumping after regular dinner service is over. Expect elevated versions of classic Music City dishes like Nashville hot oysters and flatbreads, including a BLT flatbread featuring a local favorite, Gifford’s bacon. The late night menu begins service at 10:00 pm on Thursday through Saturday will also include “Late Night Happy Hour” with drink specials such as $5 glasses of wine and draft beer.
It’s great to see more music returning to Printer’s Alley, and hopefully some visitors to Nashville will return there too.
