This was the best place in Nashville and will be missed very much by a huge number of people. The staff, musicians and other regulars will always hold a special place in our hearts

Good option for live music slightly out of the chaos of Broadway, friendly staff.

Really enjoyed the casual comfort of this bar, the yummy frozen bushwhacked, and the fabulous musical talents of Isaac Mathews - wow! Great experience! Don't be put off by the plywood over some of the windows - the bar is in a discussion with the city over replacing the windows in an historic building.

I apologize i marked it incorrectly. We walked there last nightand it was closed. I was so cold i didnt realize i was leaving a review. Looked like a great place. No hard feelings. Best of luck when you do re-open!

We went to Benchmark Sports Bar to watch the Packer game. Packer fans naturally bond. The bartender/ waitress was very personable and remembered what we drank. Good time!

Jerica is an awesome tender. Great little place with rustic awesome charm. Definitely worth a stop by for an hour , well in this case 3
Broadway is nice and all, but I don't love the crowds. Got to walking and heard an amazing voice. The service was lovely and I did love the music. I really loved the music, and I do hope to be back in the future. Like reviews said, bathroom is dirty but thats okay - i've seen much much much worse.

I heard so much about this place that I had to stop in for a quick drink. Well, that quick drink turned into hours and several drinks. Benchmark is the BOMB !!! The wife and I had such the best time ever here. Don't know what we liked the best. The drinks were excellent and very reasonable, and many house originals. The staff was awesome and friendly as hell, and the live music from Issac Mathews was MAGNIFICENT !!!! Don't know why Issac is playing in a bar, coz he's so much better than the stuff on the radio. The only thing negative I can say is that this bar is kinda small. So, finding a seat can be difficult at times. Especially, when Issac is performing. I highly recommend the Benchmark... You'lll LOVE it !!!
