Fleet Street Pub

London’s Fleet Street was the home of newspaper publishing from about 1500, and the first daily newspaper was published there in 1702. Fleet Street soon became synonymous with the news media in the same way that Wall Street became synonymous with the financial industry in the USA.

Meanwhile, in Nashville, the original pub is on Printers Alley, which is so named because it was the hub of the publishing industry in the southeast, and where Nashville’s first newspaper was published. Thus an English pub on Printers Alley naturally became Fleet Street Pub. And since the location was downstairs and in a basement, it seemed almost too obvious to go with a London Underground theme.

We were told of this bar by the barman at the Back Stage bar in Chattanooga so we visited the bar during the evening and it was pretty busy, we thought that we would sample some of the UK beer on tap but were saddened to see that the only lager was “Harp”, to be honest i did not even know that they still made it ! so we opted for domestic US beer instead.

We did not see any food so can’t comment on it.

There were 3 dart boards that were being used.
