Since its inception, The Patterson House has set the standard for craft cocktails in Nashville with its pre-Prohibition style cocktail list of more than 1,200 different drinks using quality ingredients, meticulous technique and house-cut ice tailored precisely to each glass. The cocktail program, known for its balance of tradition and innovation, continues to anchor the experience with the move to the new location allowing for a significant increase in offerings.
