Black Dog Pub & Music Lounge brings a fresh neighborhood pub experience to Downtown Franklin, TN. Created by Marc and Peggy Driskill, the pub reflects their shared vision of building a space that connects people through music and community. They designed the venue to host live music multiple nights each week while offering thoughtful perks for regular guests.

Marc, who has worked closely with songwriters and artists, wanted a venue where musicians feel respected and truly heard. The pub supports Nashville’s thriving songwriting scene with intimate performances that highlight the stories behind the songs. Peggy focused on creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Together, they transformed a former office house into a cozy indoor-outdoor pub filled with antiques and vintage character.

Guests can relax with casual food and a full bar, enjoy special events and ticketed shows, or gather on the dog-friendly patio. Black Dog Pub & Music Lounge delivers live music in Franklin, TN, where great songs and good company create unforgettable nights.
