Wife just booked us at the Chancellor hotel which is right off Dickson.

It's actually the Graduate, now, and it's part of the Graduate chain of hotels (if you're familiar). They definitely went a little overboard with this design, but the chain knows how to run a thoughtful, funky hotel. Food and beverage service are both good there, and just hanging and drinking at the lobby bar of the hotel is a good experience.


Just don't be thrown off by the plaid... or the camo...

Good places to eat/drink within easy walk of your hotel:

Food:
Taste of Thai
Axis Lounge (it's a weird VR/Gaming place, but they actually have pretty badass Oaxacan-inspired tapas)
Vetro
West Mountain Brewery
DamGoode Pies
Hugo's

Drinks:
The Nines Alley (beer, wine, and cider only.. but fun speakeasy style place).
The Vault (craft cocktails $$$)
Maxines (craft cocktails)
West Mountain Brewery (also a pizzeria but have a good bar and beer)
Pinpoint (pinball bar.. yes.. lots of pinball games in a bar).


All of those are within a block of your hotel and don't require walking down to Dickson. If you're over 30, Dickson kind of sucks, in my opinion. I'd much rather hang out at the places I listed above than Dickson at night.
