Preservation Pub Wins USA Today “Best Bar in America” (Or at Least in the Top Twenty-Seven)

Knoxville’s Historic Gem Shines Bright

Knoxville, TN – Preservation Pub, an iconic bar known for its eclectic vibes and rich history, has been honored by USA Today as one of the “Best Bars in America”. Although the list comprises twenty-seven exceptional bars, the top spot is proudly claimed.

A Diverse Experience Under One Roof

Even a quick visit to Preservation Pub reveals why it’s so special. The first floor caters to smokers and sets the scene with its raucous music. The second floor, in contrast, offers a more relaxed atmosphere featuring intimate performances from singer-songwriters and comedians. And let’s not forget the rooftop, an enchanting oasis known as Bernadette’s Crystal Gardens—The Magic Beer Tree Rooftop Garden. As one patron put it, “It’s a place where memories are made.”

Part of a Larger Family of Bars

Preservation Pub isn’t a standalone star; it’s part of a constellation of bars under management. Nestled in the heart of Market Square, it shares its neighborhood with Scruffy City Hall, Bernadette’s, and Alice in Appalachia, creating a mini entertainment district that has been 35 years in the making.

The longevity and deep involvement in downtown Knoxville’s development have undoubtedly contributed to the success. “Location is key, but it wasn’t always great when we started. If you keep your eyes open for opportunities, you’ll eventually get lucky.”

A Bar That Never Sleeps

One unique aspect that sets Preservation Pub apart is its steadfast commitment to remaining open every day of the year, complete with live music. From blizzards to holidays like Thanksgiving and Christmas, you can count on finding live entertainment any night you choose to visit.

This dedication has cultivated a loyal customer base that spans generations. While the rooftop sees older patrons in the early evening, the crowd skews younger as the night progresses. With operating hours from 3:00 pm to 3:00 am on weekdays and noon to 3:00 am on weekends, there’s always a time and place for everyone.

Lessons from Hardships

The journey hasn’t been without challenges. “You don’t learn anything from success, but only learn from horrifying, humiliating, agonizing failure. Persistence is the key”. Whether dealing with personal trials or the pandemic, the resilient spirit shines through.

The bar’s motto, “Welcome, you’re in good company”, encapsulates its inclusive nature. “We’ve tried to be eclectic. Everyone should feel welcome here.” Each floor offers a unique atmosphere, allowing patrons to find their perfect spot.

A Moment of Recognition

Being included in a national list of best bars is a well-deserved accolade for Preservation Pub. “After all these years, it’s nice when someone says, ‘Good job.’”

The bar is open seven days a week, offering a unique blend of ambiance, music, and history.
