It's like a real-life Magic Mike show, but with more denim and less abs. Oh honey, let me tell you about the Wild Beaver Saloon! If you're looking for a place to let your hair down and have a wild time with your girls, this is the spot for you. First things first, let's talk about the decor. It's like a cross between a hunting lodge and a drag queen's dream, with plenty of rustic touches and glittery accents. You'll feel right at home whether you're wearing cowboy boots or stilettos. Now, let's get to the main attraction: the mechanical bull. If you want to watch bachelorette parties riding that bad boy all day, this is definitely the place to be. It's like a real-life Magic Mike show, but with more denim and less abs. But don't worry, even if you're not the mechanical bull-riding type, there's plenty of other things to do at the Wild Beaver Saloon. You can play some pool, dance to the country music, or just sip on some fruity cocktails and people-watch. And the staff? Let me tell you, they are fabulous. They'll make you feel like the belle of the ball, whether you're ordering a drink or getting on that mechanical bull. So if you're in the mood for a night of fun and frivolity, head on down to the Wild Beaver Saloon. You won't regret it, honey!

Don’t go there on a Thursday night. The guy that runs karaoke only lets his favorites or HIM sing! We watched singers sing 3 or 4 times, multiple people and no one in our group had an opportunity to sing. We were there the night before and had a BLAST! The karaoke person did a wonderful job )wish I knew her name), she did it for the fun of the crowd. The guy Thursday night was all about him and his dollar. Too bad he put a bad taste in our mouth. Will come back to see if he isn’t working. He is working..,no thanks! Go to WannaBe’s! P.s. The bartenders, both nights were AWESOME and the female karaoke person AWESOME. Just the guy who did karaoke on August 4, 2022, was TERRIBLE!!

  • Adam Wozney

The wild beavers roam free in the cool calm evening air. With strength and vigor the beavers cut, mash and mangle old vine trees to create their utopia. Happiness is the work. Beavers without the work are not beavers... It is told. The night sky direct their path. Their work, while fruitful is never complete. Happiness is the work. Upon gold spindles the beavers brace for unforseen dangers. The spirit of elder beavers blanket them in calm. The beavers are happy in the work. Happy and healthy beavers.

Went here last year with friends and had fun. Came back this year and it was horrible. Bouncer had an ego problem. One of our group unintentionally carried a drink while getting on the bull. Our guy was handing it off to friends when the bouncer body slammed him to the mat. He then had show how tough he was by making a dramatic show in throwing our friend out. Seriously think the bouncer was on something. We will never be back. Manager was apologizing and refunded us for the drinks. Not a safe environment.

  • Abigail Motsinger

Very disappointed. I searched this place before making the trip because I wanted to ride the mechanical bull. It’s on my bucket list and there are none in my area. We park in a parking garage that we found and walked for a good 20-30 minutes or so to get there and they are closed at 11. I go back to google to triple check the time they close and it says 1am. Both my boyfriend and I are irritated because at this point we are both excited that I’m riding the bull placing bets and ready to have a few drinks.

  • Anna Stallings

We were here for about 2 1/2 hours on Friday night. We were drinking, tipping our bartenders, etc. when we first arrived we put our names down for karaoke. After 2 1/2 hours, we still hadn’t been called. We asked where we were, and the karaoke staff said we were #15 on the list, but we could tip them $20 to go next. Meanwhile, some people were singing 3-4 songs. AVOID. AVOID. AVOID.

Went here on a friday night, karaoke was awesome i swear these people sing unground or something lol, great atmosphere clean establishment esp for a friday night went to the restroom a few times and always stocked and cleaned at all times. $5 to ride the bull which was awesome and was able to get on in under 5-10 mins with the crowds. drinks good prices too! I feel like this is a must do if your into bar life good music and a good time.

  • A. Makela

Wild and fun bar where people ride a fake bull or sing when they are feeling courageous and want to ante up. Clean women's bathroom and customer safety is well observed in the faux- bull arena. Employees are very courteous and responsive at the bar and otherwise. The karaoke host can sing so beautifully! Gotta love this about Nashville! Great place for small and large groups of adults to act silly and have a great time together!

  • Allison

I am so disappointed in this place. I’m 24 and out of college and in my career and was so excited to come to this bar bc it has my two favorite things (karaoke and a mechanical bull) and they tried to say my ID was fake ??? I have the most updated ID you can get in NC. I had to go to the DMV two months ago because I changed addresses. The bouncer from the night of December 2nd needs a little tutorial on how to check IDs.

  • Alexander Negash

We were in a group of 15 and I got let in (i am black) but the only person not let in was my white girlfriend by the lightskin bouncer (everyone else in our group was let in). Unsurprisingly, the bouncer admitted that he was prejudiced and wouldn’t let her in because of that. Do not visit if you are a person of color or associated. Otherwise, have a good night! :)

came in on a Tuesday, it was closed. Came back on Wednesday and had a blast and so happy I decided to come back! Really just wanted to ride the Bull since they don’t have em around where I’m from. The place was relaxing, had a blast! Drinks were good and the bartender was very nice and fast! Have fun games and a photo booth. If you tip the Bull operator he will make the ride more with the money! (Hint hint)

  • Karen Whitley

This place is a joke! We were just denied our daughter in laws ID. They said it was fake! Went with family and friends to have a good time. The guy at the door was an absolute jerk. Do not waste your time or money to go to this place. We were just ALL there two days ago with no trouble. Been in Nashville for 5 days with no trouble until the last night. Do not recommend this place for this reason!

  • Sumer Kindell

Security at the front is very rude. Broke my friends ID and refused to pay to have it replaced. If you think it's a fake then don't allow entry. Obviously, damaged IDs are not accepted here (see picture). So why damage my friends ID. General Manager and two managers laughed at the fact that their security guy broke the ID. Visiting from out of town; real inconvenience when we have to fly back.

  • Keith “Duke” Jones

Great karaoke music and a good time to be alive in the place. Staff are very nice and helpful people who have a good time along with you. The other people who were patrons acted so nice and friendly! I would recommend you go to the karaoke bar in downtown Nashville if you’re interested in a good time!

1st time here! We came on a Saturday night around 5 pm and it wasn’t too busy at all. There is bull riding available for $5. If you want to sing karaoke just write your song down by the dj and she goes down the list. If you want to go sooner, just tip her some money and you’ll get to the top of the list. There is games toward the back of the bar. Parking garage nearby.

  • kyrstin mulvenna

This place absolutely blows. They were ignorant to my friends mom who’s an angel on earth. I hope they all burn in Hell and I hope their families have to watch. Burn to the ground wild beaver. Horrible staff horrible service horrible atmosphere horrible people. I miss Philly yo.

Everyone was packed like sardines. Forget enjoying karaoke, forget enjoying the drink someone just knocked into you. Literally the only thing keeping it from 1 star is the mechanical bull was fun. Edit: Changing to 1 star because my wife reminded me that her drink was $15. I'm at a run down bar, not Denim. I didn't come here to pay top shelf prices.

  • Matt Pietri

This place was chaos on a Saturday night...but in a good way. So much going on between the rowdy crowd, karaoke, and a mechanical bull. But the staff kept the drinks coming quick and we camped here a solid couple of hours and just took in the good time.

Went here with co-twerkers and we had a great time. Just a fun place to go and have a drink. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. This is a Karaoke bar but us not overly loud. There are a few games towards the back and a mechanical bull. Centrally located downtown with a parking garage nearby.

  • Ariel “Neori” W

I can't wait till I'm able to ride the mechanical bull at this place, it was so much fun watching people ride it and the drinks were very tasty! The staff was super friendly and kind. I will definitely be back so I can ride that mechanical bull !!!!

  • Colleen Lemke

A local told us about this bar. We are so glad we went...because shouldn't you see grown men and woman singing their hearts out and getting thrown from a mechanical bull when in Nashville?! It doesn't have bands...karaoke and bull riding provides all the entertainment you need!

  • Saba Mujkic

A lot of fun, the mechanical bull is a riot. Our only gripe was that the order for people doing karaoke is unpredictable. I guess they rank the list based on how much of a tip you leave or let others skip the line? We waited longer than expected for my friends to do their song.

  • Tamara Margulski

We went for karaoke, but customers were more interested in the mechanical bull (don't blame them, It was hilarious). But karaoke seemed to be background noise. Drink menu was extensive, staff friendly and efficient. The "watch for falling logs" sign for the bathroom was funny.

  • Kay Royal

A nice quiet tranquil spot for drinks. Friendly crowd, this ain't no bull Really, if you want to experience Nashville in a way to remember, this is THE party. One would think those singing karaoke are professionals. Just average people with unbelievable abilities

  • kamisha pitts

I was so excited to go there at first. Once we got there, the vibe was friendly and seemed to be fun. However, the guy that runs the bull was rude to me and several other customers. I will not spend my money even if one apple spoils the bunch. Never going back.

  • richard coad

Amazing low-key place off the beaten path. Would have preferred to go here to most of the places on Broadway. Mechanical bull, pool table, and more. Bartender Kendall was an amazing, packed place and could remember our 5 drinks after the first time-frame

  • matthew debiase

I was really disappointed there weren't any actual live wild beavers at this saloon. None to pet, none in cages to look at. No beaver expert to answer my questions. All jokes aside, awesome karaoke, lively bar and environment definitely worth a visit!

This place really is WILD!!! Mechanical bull and karaoke. Had an amazing time here. The guy running the Bull apparently is not a Pens fan. Gave my son a hard time getting on the Bull because he was wearing a pens jersey. but it was all in fun.

So this place in fact was a good time, they added an extra bucket of beer to my tab which I didn’t get, but the karaoke would have been amazing except that the Dj would take money from people to get them first in line. What a racket.

Interesting spot a few blocks off Broadway. Karaoke, bull riding, games and staff that didn't seem to care you were there or not. Bathrooms were disgusting and the house beer was terrible. You'll find better Beaver elsewhere.
