Trax

Trax is a excellent establishment for gay locals and visitors to get a drink, have an entertaining night, and to create hilarious memories to tell your friends about later. Drinks: There drinks are surprisingly good here! They have a fairly limited selection, but they do cover most of the bases (beer, limited wine, spirits). You can even get a little airplane bottle of wine with a straw if you so choose. Food: My apologies if this review is a little off as the burnt pizza suggestion as an item made me laugh really hard XD. I would only eat the food here if you're very drunk and need it ( I have tried most of the food). Nothing wrong with it Healthwise, just not very high quality and usually a little overcooked; aka your average bar food. If you do choose to eat here I would suggest the chicken tenders, cheese sticks, jalapeño poppers, or the corndog bites if they're available. They also have a lot of bagged merchandise like chips, crackers, and I think popcorn too. Service: The service is hit or miss time-wise but if you go here a few times the staff really do grow on you and mean well so it's easier to forgive the times when they're not 100% speedy. Surprisingly there is very little turnover staff wise in my experience here which is a good sign. The root issue with service is that there isn't much space and there is only one real access point to the bar if you're not sitting at it. This spot also happens to be a high traffic area due to it also being the path that leads to the back patio and the cooking station. Atmosphere: I love the atmosphere here; it's grungy and you absolutely will NOT be judged in any way, and people are always having a good time. If you're uppity, this is certainly not a place you will feel comfortable (I happen to prefer that outcome). They also have a patio out back which is where I usually hang out! It's open air and even though there are people smoking out there I still like it fine. This is where most of the entertainment of the night happens. I will say that this is by far the friendliest gay bar in all of Nashville and that in itself is worth it in our current social climate. This bar never feels cliquish and is a phenomenal place to make new friends and acquaintances. My last piece of advise here is that if you have a phobia of dirty toilets, don't come here when it's super busy. Life happens. XD

Flew into town for Sarah Brightman’s concert at the Ryman and unintentionally came here on the bear 🐻 club’s long John Toys for Tots Christmas party! It was such a friendly, unpretentious, fun place! After 2 for 1 happy hour, mingled with some handsome bears on the back patio and met some most gracious ladies who knew how to party 🎊 Then it became quite a festive crowd! Terrific music & definitely the best bar of the entire trip. This pic was taken when I returned to my Broadway hotel though I don’t remember taking it. 🥳

Adam the bartender was outside and saw us and welcomed us in the bar and he made our drinks almost they hole time we were there made us feel right at home and we will be back to the bar soon

By far the best place to have a good time! This team was so amazing and treated the Chris and Max bachelor party like family. 10/10 absolutely fabulous! Cory, Fernando, Dalton and everyone else stay amazing babies! -love your STL Family
