If you’re a karaoke enthusiast then you probably already have heard of Lonnie’s Western Room.

Lonnie’s is so iconic around Nashville that celebrities, from Jimmy Fallon to Dale Earnhardt Jr., have come here to sing their favorite songs. Lonnie’s Western Room is open until late at night and the music never stops.

6. Fran's East Side

Editor's Note: There's no photo available at the time of writing

The location of Fran’s East Side used to be (perhaps ironically) a beauty salon. Despite that Fran’s East Side has been around since the 1970s and the cash-only bar reflects that. The bar used to be located in a rougher part of town but the area was cleaned up.

While the places around Fran’s modernized, Fran’s has remained as a place where the working-class people of Nashville can grab a beer, play some pool, and enjoy each other’s company as well as have a sing-along or two.
