Pullman Standard is an upscale cocktail lounge located in the iconic Cummins Station building focused on top-shelf liquor & wine, inventive craft cocktails, and creative small plates.
Our concept is inspired by the renowned dining and “sleeper” train cars that originated in the 1860s and reached their heyday in the Roaring ’20s. The original Pullman legacy was one of exceptional luxury, legendary service, and the fight for equal rights -- and we carry on those traditions to this day.
About us
As a nod to this era, we’re located in historic Cummins Station, originally built as a modern transit warehouse in 1906 to give Nashville merchants access to a national commerce landscape. The famed Pullman trains made it all possible.
Today's Pullman Standard once again serves as a hub, connecting patrons from all over with Nashville’s unique culture through craft cocktails and culinary experiences.

When guests sit down to order, there’s no QR code to scan. In keeping with Pullman Standard’s theme of bygone days, the menus are enclosed in leather covers — custom-made by artisans at Lockeland Leather in East Nashville — and secured with brass inserts to weave in one of the space’s key design elements. On this intentionality, Greg says “You get the [other senses] and then, when you sit down, this is the first thing you touch. I wanted to make sure that this was beyond reproach.”

Try shareable dishes such as the dry-aged beef tartare with fried brioche and oyster aioli, American Waygu with puffed bread, aerated cheddar and onion jam, or the Rohan duck stick with black cherry lacquer and pistachio. For dessert, the wasabi pea-mint soft serve in a black sesame cone is a treat you won’t find anywhere else. Of course, you shouldn’t skip the gorgeous craft cocktail menu featuring highlights like the Hotel Florence, inspired by an 1880s-era hotel in (appropriately) Chicago’s Pullman Historic District.

Pullman Standard’s impressive “snack” menu is crafted by a James Beard award winning chef - which I did not know when I ordered the pimiento cheese, but as soon as I tasted it, I knew that someone special had created that masterpiece.
