From the business: The M.L.Rose story began in 2008 in the Melrose neighborhood of Nashville. At the time, Melrose was on the verge of a revival – but it was still a neighborhood without a great neighborhood bar. When we opened, our simple goal was to give our neighbors a place to relax and spend time with each other over craft beer and great food. As the city has grown, so have we, but our focus remains the same – to be the neighborhood’s favorite place to get out without getting fancy.
