Located on the first floor of The Pinnacle venue, Earls Nashville Yards will feature a wall bar, lounge and custom furniture. The space will also include local art, continuing Earls’ history of supporting local artists in its communities.
“Earls is one of the most successful family-owned independent restaurant groups in North America.
