Fogg Street Lawn Club

The Vibe

Fogg Street Lawn Club opened in downtown Nashville in September 2024 as something the city had never seen: a multi-level British-inspired sports pub with rooftop lawn bowling and skyline views. Created by Thom and Angela Dahle, Fogg Street quickly earned the title of Official Pub of Nashville SC, anchoring its identity in soccer while offering experiences that go well beyond a standard sports bar. The venue sits at 648 Fogg Street, a short walk from Broadway, and brings a distinctly British sensibility to Music City.

The Setup

The ground floor houses a 2,500-square-foot indoor soccer and rugby pub with screens covering every wall. Upstairs, an 8,000-square-foot rooftop features eight British lawn bowling rinks with covered VIP seating and panoramic views of the Nashville skyline. In winter, the rooftop transforms for Bavarian ice stock curling with heated cabins. The venue operates on multiple levels -- literally and figuratively -- giving visitors the choice between an intimate pub experience and a sprawling rooftop social scene.

Match Day Experience

Fogg Street shows every televised soccer match, including 6 AM Premier League kickoffs that draw the early-morning faithful. Nashville SC match days bring the largest crowds, with the pub's official partnership ensuring pre-match energy, watch parties for away games, and post-match gatherings. Manchester City supporters and Newcastle United fans also hold regular watch parties here. The indoor pub is where the serious viewing happens; the rooftop is where the celebration continues.

Food and Drink

The British-inspired menu includes pub classics alongside brunch options and a kids' menu. Draft pints run around seven dollars during happy hour, with cocktails and Jack and Coke specials rounding out the drink list. The rooftop cabins can be reserved for groups, with food and drink minimums that make them ideal for watch parties of eight to twelve people.

Who Goes There

Nashville SC supporters form the core, but the venue's unique offerings -- lawn bowling, rooftop views, ice curling -- draw a broader crowd than a typical soccer pub. Downtown hotel guests, bachelorette parties discovering the rooftop, Premier League early risers, and families during daytime hours all mix with the dedicated football crowd. The venue is all-ages friendly, which sets it apart from many Nashville bars.

Insider Tips

Reserve a rooftop cabin for group watch parties -- they fill up quickly for Nashville SC matches. The indoor pub on the ground floor is the better choice for serious football viewing; the rooftop is more social. For 6 AM Premier League matches, the crowd is small but dedicated. The venue is a short walk from Lower Broadway but far enough to avoid the tourist chaos. OpenTable reservations are available for both the pub and rooftop.
