Near the Main Terminal food court, 3rd & Broadway pours Tennessee flavor
3rd & Broadway sits in Nashville International Airport’s Main Terminal, positioned among the central food options after security. The name nods to downtown Nashville’s 3rd Avenue and Broadway, so expect a lean into local branding rather than a generic airport bar. Seating runs bar-style with some tables, typical for a quick bite between flights.
Hours at BNA locations like 3rd & Broadway usually track early-morning departures, often opening before the first banks of flights around 5:00–6:00 a.m. and running into the evening push around 8:00–9:00 p.m. Exact times flex with the schedule, so check the airport’s daily listing if you’re landing late on a Sunday or flying out on a very early Monday.
Pricing at similar Main Terminal spots at BNA tends to land in the $12–$18 range for mains and $8–$14 for shareable appetizers. Drinks at airport bars here commonly sit around $9–$14 for beer, wine, or basic cocktails. Expect 3rd & Broadway to track that pattern, so a casual sit-down with an entree and one drink usually hits $25–$35 per person before tip.
The menu at 3rd & Broadway leans casual American with bar standards: burgers, chicken sandwiches, salads, and shareables like fries or wings are typical for this type of airport spot tied to Nashville’s downtown strip. This makes it an easy middle-of-the-road pick between fast food and the pricier, slower sit-down operations in the Main Terminal. If time is tight, ask upfront how long kitchen tickets are running before you commit.
Since 3rd & Broadway sits post-security in the Main Terminal, it works well if your gate is on the central or nearby concourses that feed off the main atrium. One simple tip: check your gate before you sit, then set an alarm for 25 minutes before boarding so the bar tab, restroom stop, and walk to the gate don’t turn into a sprint.
