Where to Find Analog Photo Booths in Nashville

Lower Broadway and Downtown

**Acme Feed & Seed** — 101 Broadway, Lower Broadway. A four-story bar and restaurant right on Lower Broadway. One of the most accessible Nashville booth stops for visitors already on Broadway for the honky-tonk strip.

**Wild Beaver Saloon** — 168 2nd Ave N, Broadway / Lower Broadway. A popular Broadway-area bar known for karaoke and mechanical bull, with an analog photo booth. Easy to combine with the surrounding entertainment district.

**Fifth + Broadway Photo Booths** — 501 Broadway, Downtown Nashville. Two Photomatica-designed analog photo booths at Fifth + Broadway's first-floor atrium leading to Assembly Food Hall. Having two booths in one location reduces wait time — a priority stop for Nashville visitors.

Wedgewood-Houston

**The Blue Room** — 623 7th Ave South, Wedgewood-Houston. Classic black-and-white analog photo booth. The machine was relocated from Third Man Records next door. Produces 4-panel strips. Cash $5, card accepted. One of the best-value Nashville booth stops: $5, card accepted, in an arts neighborhood with genuine booth character.

**Third Man Records** — 623 7th Ave S. Jack White's legendary independent record label and retail store. The vintage Autophoto-maintained booth is mechanical, chemical, and entirely analog — each strip is an original. A destination for music fans that makes the booth a natural stop in the same visit.

12 South / The Gulch

**Pins Mechanical Nashville** — 1101 Acklen Ave, 12 South / The Gulch. Nashville's arcade bar destination, known for pinball machines and classic games, with a working film strip photo booth. Arcade bars are excellent booth environments: the entertainment culture means the booth is maintained and used.

East Nashville

**Sid Gold's Request Room** — 3245 Gallatin Pike. A Nashville piano bar and singalong venue, confirmed in the Booth Beacon database as a booth location.

Practical Info

**Cost:** Nashville booth prices vary by venue. The Blue Room is $5 cash or card — one of the best prices in the city. Broadway venues may be higher given tourist volume. Fifth + Broadway Photomatica booths are typically in the $5–8 range.

**Cash vs. card:** The Blue Room accepts both cash and card. Broadway bar booths are more likely to be cash-only. Bring small bills for Acme and Wild Beaver.

**Wait time:** Lower Broadway venues get heavy foot traffic on weekend nights. Fifth + Broadway has two booths which helps. Wedgewood-Houston and 12 South booths (Blue Room, Third Man, Pins Mechanical) are quieter and more manageable.

**Strip type:** Third Man Records and The Blue Room both produce genuine analog strips. Photomatica booths at Fifth + Broadway are a more modern analog-hybrid format.

Planning Your Nashville Booth Night

**The Broadway cluster** (Acme Feed & Seed, Wild Beaver, Fifth + Broadway) covers the tourist-friendly end of the spectrum — easy for visitors already doing Broadway.

**The Wedgewood-Houston run** (Third Man Records and The Blue Room) is the best option for music fans and analog purists. Both locations are within walking distance of each other and offer the highest-character booth experience in the city.

**Pins Mechanical** is the best option if you want an arcade-bar setting with games, food, and a maintained film booth under one roof.

Tips for Getting a Good Strip in Nashville

**Time your Broadway visit** — Lower Broadway is busiest Thursday through Sunday nights. For Acme or Wild Beaver, aim earlier in the evening before the crowd builds.

**Third Man Records hours** — Third Man has retail and event hours that differ from standard bar hours. Check their schedule before heading to Wedgewood-Houston.

**Two-booth strategy at Fifth + Broadway** — Two Photomatica booths means you can bring a group without a long wait.

Why Nashville Works for Analog Photo Booths

Nashville's music culture creates natural booth habitat: bars, record stores, and entertainment venues all support photo booth maintenance and use. Third Man Records is the most obvious example — the Autophoto machine there reflects a broader commitment to analog formats. The Blue Room's $5 all-format pricing shows that newer Nashville operators are building for accessibility, not just novelty.
