The Backyard

Where Nectar Comes Outside

There is always something happening out back at Nectar. The Backyard is where casual afternoons turn into lively nights, with space to gather, sip, eat, listen, and enjoy the energy of the neighborhood. Whether you are meeting friends for drinks, bringing the family for a laid back meal, enjoying seasonal specials, or catching live music under the Nashville sky, this is the place to settle in and stay awhile.

From community gatherings and local performers to easygoing outdoor moments, The Backyard brings together everything guests love about Nectar in one open air space. Grab your favorite food from the cantina, order a fresh drink, and make plans to join us for upcoming events made for friends, family, and Donelson neighbors.
