Located in The Nations neighborhood in Nashville, TN Bare Bones Butcher provides an inviting space for meat and food connoisseurs. Along with an area for a whole animal butchery, the shop also includes a bar and dining area where a light lunch service and a well curated selection of beers is served. Upon entering the shop there is a large window into the cold prep room where all the meat is prepared, providing an interactive experience for patrons. This is framed by custom steel shelving where a selection of dry goods, local bread, and produce are displayed. The steel frame was fabricated by Ferrin Ironworks. This frame also houses the custom lighting provided by Southern Lights Electric. All the furniture in the space was custom designed in collaboration with 5 String Furniture. Interior finishes and lighting were selected to bring forth a hint of the old-time butcher shops. The hand painted graphics are by I Saw the Sign.
