Embers Ski Lodge

Been here plenty of times for drinks and it's always a fun vibe plus they have good happy hour specials. Finally got food for the first time and I'm just wondering what took me so long! You can't beat 1lb of wings for $10 plus the cali fries were huge and delicious.

Cool space, nice staff! We ordered extra sauce and paid for it and it didn't come out, asked about it, and still never got it but all in all it was good

This joint is a great causal spot to grab some good food & drinks! It is located in the heart of 12 South neighborhood. The staff is really chill & friendly. They do not have table servers so to have to go to the bar to place your order. Really not a big deal bc the service is quick. Hands down best Coconut Shrimp I have ever had! Also, great burger too! Another bonus is there is plenty to do around n there the area. So start here or end here but whatever you do... DO NOT pass on this gem! The decor is Ski Lodge Theme so super cozy! Only downside is parking in the area limited but there is limited parking in front if you are a customer. Enjoy

Vibes were good! Come during happy hour which is every weekday from 3 to 7 get bogo beer (if same beer purchased). Lots of people in beanies and vests. Good food and cool bartenders (shoutout to Sam). Would return especially on a Friday after work! They even have a few board games

I LOVE this place. Been coming here for a few years now. All the staff is really awesome and nice, The alcohol, well it's alcohol, hard to fuck that up. But the Food, is AMAZING, they have killer fries, which constantly fucks with my diet! And the cheese sandwich they have, it's ORGASMIC! and the other stuff on the menu is great too. I think this has been and will be in my favorite top 3 spots in town.

While I can't speak to the food, I can speak to the vibe and the booze...which are the most important things anyway! Embers Ski Lodge is a wood-filled, hipster/local-vibed, rustic, yet industrial restaurant and bar that sits in the heart of 12 South. They are two story with a decently sized indoor space that features the large bar, seating with hightops and booths and a game area. Upstairs is all seating with a few high tops and stools lining the edge overlooking the busy streets below. We came here on a Saturday afternoon and were able to catch their 2-4-1 happy hour specials on beers. So naturally we all loaded up as many Montucky's and High Noon's as possible while we bellied up to the railing and people watched! It was a pretty solid afternoon! Service at the bar was solid and pricing wasn't terrible, especially with the happy hour running. Really the only downfall, which is trivial was the single stall restroom...for a place of this size, there was a constant wait to use the single restroom downstairs. Overall, Embers is a cool spot that we will certainly be back to...and I think we owe it to ourselves to scoop up some food along with our booze next time!

The vibes and atmosphere at this establishment are unmatched. It's the perfect local bar to grab a drink and hangout. The upstairs outdoor patio is a great way to be outside when the weather is nice but it's also heated in the winter.I've had the burger and it was awesome. They have 2 for 1 drafts EVERY DAY from 3-7pm! Their happy hour is the best I've found in Nashville. It's usually pretty busy here which is always a good sign, but might need to wait out for a table given its a spot that people come to stay. The only thing that is hard to shake is that the bathroom only has 1 stall. Which kind sucks given the place is always so busy. Overall, a great local spot in 12 south that is guaranteed to meet your expectations no matter if you're looking for a cozy atmosphere, great deals, good drinks, and excellent food!

Great local neighborhood bar with an upstairs balcony area that overlooks the 12 south area. A bit odd of a ski lodge theme considering we're in the South, but nevertheless a fun local hangout spot! When we went a week ago, they were running on a limited food menu and didn't have any burgers, only appetizers. But still an overall great experience. Cali Style Fries- super good with the caramelized onions, cheese and animal sauce Queso - ask for extra chips cuz the quest is delicious. Brussel sprouts - a must order!Service: Friendly and unpretentious.

They have a great patio to get a casual drink. Best happy hour in the city with 2 for 1 everyday!

I can only comment on the bar service as we didn't eat here. We had reservations at Urban Grub and wanted a cocktail prior to walking over. Have to say, we were definitely impressed. The ski lodge theme is a bit strange as it's Nashville but the place is nicely decorated and clean. The bartenders were super nice and served us quickly. A lot of beers on tap and many drink options, especially at happy hour! A great crowd from all walks of life, including oldies like us. Loved the hops lights over the bar. The upstairs balcony is really cool and you can see most of 12 South. Next time we're in town we'll be trying the food as the burgers looked freaking awesome.
