Thursday, June 12th - 5-7 PM – Thirsty Thursday

Sam’s Sports Grill at Blue Turtle Bay

Sam’s Sports Grill took the philosophy “if we are going to do it, let’s do it right”. They apply this philosophy to all areas of the restaurant including food, service and sports. Their hard work has paid off as they have been voted Best Sports Grill for 14 years by the readers of the Nashville Scene Magazine. Awards are great but they know they are only as good as your last visit, that’s why their whole team is committed to your complete satisfaction.

In order to maintain their Best Sports Grill title, they hand-patty all of the burgers, and make all of their soups, sauces, and dressings each day. Happy Hour lasts until 7 PM and includes 2-for-1 draft beer, bottled beer, and single liquor drinks, plus $5 glasses of wine.

Members, Guests, and Visitors are welcome.

LOCATION: 2001 Lakeshore Drive, Old Hickory, TN

PARKING: Plenty of free parking is available in the parking lot.

RSVP: Please RSVP on the event page (login for fastest results) to let us know who and how many are coming, so we can reserve seats.
