Here at Goodnight Nashville, Jelly Roll’s multi-level tribute to his hometown, you can raise a glass, catch a live set, and get inked, all under one roof. Meet Glasshouse Tattoo; it’s the only bar on Broadway with an on-site, walk-in tattoo parlor run by incredibly talented artists. This establishment is pushing the envelope by merging live music, food, drinks and ink. Jelly Roll’s Goodnight Nashville isn’t just another bar or restaurant; it’s a full‑sensory, multi‑floor experience with plenty of surprises which includes a walk‑in tattoo parlor right inside. If you haven’t been yet, here’s what makes it special and what to know before getting that flash tattoo under neon lights.
Meet the Legends Behind the Ink
Glasshouse Tattoo isn’t your average tattoo shop. It’s run by two legends: Chris Nuñez, renowned tattoo artist/judge on the hit show Ink Master, and Bubba Irwin, winner of Ink Master Season 9.
Together, they’ve created a space that blends high-level artistry with the best of Music City. If you’re looking for a small flash piece, or matching tattoos with your bestie, the artists at Glasshouse are the real deal.
Ready to Make it Official? Here’s How to Get Inked
Glasshouse Tattoo at Goodnight Nashville is ready for you. Walk-ins are welcome during select hours from noon ‘til late night. You can choose from flash art or fine-line designs, all done by skilled artists in a safe, professional, and clean environment. Keep in mind, you must be 21 or older to enter the bar. There’s no better place to leave your mark.
There are nights that fade into the background… and then there are nights that become stories. The kind you laugh about later. The kind you bring up at reunions. The kind that live on in group chats, inside jokes, and maybe even on your skin… if that’s what you decide.
If you’re looking for that kind of night, Goodnight Nashville delivers in ways most places can’t. It’s not just another bar or music venue. It’s a four-story playground of live music, elevated bar food, skyline views and yes, a walk-in tattoo parlor. Whether you’re a local out for the night or visiting with friends for the weekend, Goodnight Nashville is where memories are made. Real ones. Unfiltered. A little wild. Definitely unforgettable.
Why It’s Interesting (and Why Some Might Be Cautious)
The idea of combining nightlife with tattooing is distinctive, and it’s already drawing attention. Here are some of the upsides and also some things to think about.
What works well:
- Convenience & novelty. You’re already out; maybe enjoying the music, or hanging on the rooftop, or grabbing a bite, the tattoo option is seamlessly part of the experience.
- Vibe fits. If you’re into spontaneous moments, art, expressive experiences, this matches that energy. It feels curated, fun, and unique.
- Accessible pricing for what it is. Flash tattoos aren’t custom full sleeves they’re smaller, pre‑designed, quicker, more impulse‑friendly. Not super cheap, but for what you get, it seems fair.
Matching Ink and Inside Jokes
There’s something uniquely bonding about getting a tattoo with friends. Maybe it’s not about the ink itself but what it represents. A celebration. A survival story. A “why the hell not” moment. Those little symbols end up becoming inside jokes, shared glances, or even group chat names.
At Glasshouse, the walk-in setup makes it easy, no pressure, no need to plan weeks ahead. You browse the wall, pick what feels right, and get inked in a clean, professional space. You’ll walk out with aftercare instructions, a little bandage, and probably a few photos that’ll end up in someone’s Instagram dump.
And now, every time you see that tattoo, whether it’s the tiniest outline or something bolder, you’ll remember that night and how fun you had.
Say Goodnight to Ordinary
Some places give you drinks. Some give you a show. Goodnight Nashville gives you a night; the kind you talk about for years. The kind that turns friends into family. That turns “let’s grab a drink” into “remember when we…?”
Whether you walk out with a tattoo or just a big smile and a full camera roll, one thing’s for sure: you won’t forget it.
So gather your friends. Wear something comfortable. Bring an open heart and maybe a little courage. Because at Goodnight Nashville, anything can happen… and often does.
