ABOUT US
HOW DID THE RED DOOR SALOON GET ITS NAME?
Let's look back to the beginning of the original location in 2002. Ric and his business partner were sitting on two railroad ties looking at the building that was to become the first Red Door Saloon. Ric is of Irish descent, and there was a period in history when Ireland was fighting with England. People would paint their door red as a way to say you are welcome, and this is a safe place. That brought the first half of the name to life. Ric added saloon to reflect out west in 1816.
WHAT'S WITH ALL THE SKELETONS?
A shoe cobbler once owned our first location. There was a hole in which all the leather shavings dropped through the floor. The hole came to represent a story, "All families have skeletons in their closets." Both Nashville locations have peepholes into the basement, to view these skeletons. You will notice flying skeletons placed around the saloons.
In Indonesia, the flying skeletons are similar to the Native Americans' Dreamcatchers.
DO WE HAVE ANY DRINK SPECIALS?
We have too many to list. We have one of the most extensive beer menus and more drink specials than most bars and restaurants in town.
