Nashville Unscripted · Dolly Parton
There are three Dolly Parton bars in Nashville — but only two are actually owned by Dolly. Here’s the honest breakdown before you go.
Nashville has multiple Dolly Parton-connected bars and venues — but there’s an important distinction most visitors miss. Some are Dolly-owned. Some are Dolly-inspired. And one famous one has nothing to do with Dolly at all despite what the internet says.

The Dolly Parton Bars in Nashville
The SongTeller Hotel: Dolly’s Full Nashville Bar & Music Experience
When the SongTeller Hotel opens in September 2026, Dolly Parton will have the most significant bar and live music presence of any artist in Nashville — two owned venues inside her own hotel, steps from Lower Broadway.
Parton’s Live and Jolene’s are open to hotel guests and outside visitors alike — you don’t need to be staying at the SongTeller to experience the music. This makes the hotel a genuine addition to Nashville’s live music scene, not just a hotel amenity.
See our complete SongTeller Hotel guide for everything about the hotel, the museum, and the two venues.
Dolly Wines: Her Own Wine Label
Beyond the bars, Dolly Parton has her own wine label — Dolly Wines — which is what the Assembly Food Hall wine bar is built around. The label produces a range of wines reflecting her personality: bold, Southern, unapologetically fun.
The Dolly Wines Bar at Assembly Food Hall is the most accessible place to try her wines alongside other curated selections in a setting she helped design. Walking distance from every major Nashville attraction downtown.
