"Tattooed Mom is a classic dive bar, so it may be the last place you'd think to find several solid vegan options. But that's what their menu is all about. You can expect lots of sandwiches, like vegan Nashville hot "chicken", sriracha “chicken” wraps, and even a vegan cheesesteak. It’s the kind of place you’ll only find on South Street–there's a sticker- and marker-covered bumper car in the entrance—and one that’ll impress your friends just for knowing it exists." - candis mclean
"Tattooed Mom perfectly encapsulates South Street's grunge and chaos. The walls of this dive are covered in years of stickers, spray paint, and Sharpie, and it's possible you'd pass away before finishing a game of "I Spy." In addition to serving classic dive drinks, Tattooed Mom has a menu of over-the-top cocktails with cotton candy and Pop Rocks. They also make good burgers and vegan sandwiches, and host LGBTQ+ shows. Keep your eyes on the calendar for sapphic drag shows and karaoke night when someone grabs the mic and says Linkin Park was their gay awakening before belting out their song." - candis mclean
"Tattooed Mom is your no-words-needed introduction to South Street. The walls, top to bottom, are covered in years of stickers, spray paint, and sharpie, and it would take an exhaustive “I Spy” search to find all of the different murals by both famous and local street artists. Outside of the atmosphere, it’s the food and drinks that make it one of our favorite bars in the city. When it comes to the menu, you can expect lots of veggie sandwiches like vegan Nashville hot chicken and sriracha “chicken” wraps, or classic burgers, cheesesteaks, and plenty of filling sides like cheesy tater tots. It’s the kind of place you’ll only find on South Street–with a sticker and marker-covered bumper car in the entrance—and one that’ll impress your friends just for knowing it exists." - candis mclean, alison kessler
