Cafe Lula at The Ryman (CLOSED)

THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED

Located just outside the Ryman Auditorium’s main entrance with floor-to-ceiling glass windows on three sides and a covered patio, Cafe Lula solves the riddle of where to eat with little time to spare before the Grand Ole Opry or other show at the world-famous Ryman. Order from the counter and wait to be served – not long, there’s a show coming up! For downtown business folks and tourists alike, the menu starts the day with fresh-baked muffins and an espresso bar and leads into a menu of soups, salads, sandwiches, small plates and a short selection of entrees.

Full bar. Serving breakfast and lunch 9 am-5 pm daily. Open later on concert nights. Happy hour drink specials 3-5 pm daily.

MUST EATS: Rotisserie chicken, baked mac and smoked Gouda cheese, house-made potato chips, desserts.
