About Drifters
Established in 2009 Drifters has been a pivotal part of the 5 points area for years. From humble beginnings, Drifters has become the secret sanctuary for barbeque in East Nashville. Tucked away in an alley right next to the 5 points intersection, we've been serving families of the local community as a hidden gem; hosting live, local bands and artists on our outdoor patio stage, catering fun events and parties, serving awesome food and drink specials, and providing the best Hickory-smoked Southern BBQ around. So bring the kids, bring the dog even, and join us for some good ol' fashioned fun times at Drifters.
NASHVILLE STRONG
On March 3rd, 2020 A Tornado ripped through Middle TN. Drifters took a direct hit.
The Community is special. Immediately our Neighbors and our Neighborhood came out of their houses and came to our aid in the truest sense of the word "Community".
2 days after the tornado Matt Charette woke up in the middle of the night with a vision to paint "Nashville Strong" on the side of the Boston Commons building, facing the direction the tornado had come, as a message of thanks, and hope, and strength to my Five Points, East Nashville, Nashville and Middle Tennessee Communities.
2 weeks later the Mayor ordered all Non-essential business closed do to Covid-19.
Needless to say its been a stressful and uncertain time for us. But we are back and stronger than ever!
We Love our Community, and we want to give them a wonderful experience, great food, a welcoming comfortable atmosphere, and our unique Brand of East Nashville-Community-GutzCO service.
We hope you enjoy the new and improved Drifters Barbecue.
