May's Opens at Soho House Nashville
Soho House Nashville just got a little brighter with the arrival of new neighborhood spot, May’s. Formerly known as The Alley, May’s is a coffee shop by day and a dive bar by night, welcoming both members and the local community through its doors.
During the day, May’s serves fair trade coffee from local, member-owned specialty roasters 8th and Roast, including May’s Specialties. These unique drinks include the Mexican Ice Cream Truck (a blend of espresso, ginger, tamarind, vanilla, and coconut milk) and the Grass is Always Greener (matcha with lavender agave and oat milk).
May’s evening drinks menu includes twists on member favorites, classic cocktails, and beers paired with carefully chosen shots. May's food takes inspiration from dive bar staples: fried pickles served with marinara and ranch sauces, Wagyu beef hot dogs, and a root beer float all find their place on the menu.
The space offers a line-up of weekly events alongside a permanent darts board and vintage pool table, designed to bring the local community together. Monday is Industry Night, with drinks specials and opportunities for those in the hospitality sector to network or just let their hair down. On Thursdays, May’s hosts Vinyl Night, inviting some of the city’s best vinyl DJs down to the space to provide a soundtrack for the evening.
Fridays at May’s are dedicated to building community connections with Meet Me at May’s. Each week, different members from the local area take over the bar for a unique evening of entertainment. Saturdays offer a more laid-back atmosphere with weekly game nights that include billiards, board games and even a regular Lego club.
