The Gulch’s skyline is getting a new hangout. COA, a Tulum-inspired rooftop restaurant perched above the new Canopy by Hilton in the Gulch, opens to the public tomorrow, Friday. The 8,000-square-foot space pairs bold Mexican flavors with an extensive agave collection and wide-open skyline views. Guests can expect shareable plates, agave-forward cocktails and a year-round rooftop layout that is intentionally set up for both locals and hotel visitors.
Tulum-Inspired Rooftop And Agave Focus
As reported by Nashville Lifestyles, COA’s team describes the rooftop as a Tulum-inspired experience centered on bold Mexican flavors and "one of the city’s most comprehensive agave selections." Executive Chef Jose Mendoza told the outlet the menu leans on fresh, shareable plates meant to move easily from dinner into late night. Sitting atop the new Canopy by Hilton, the venue is billed as both a dining destination and an after-hours spot for the neighborhood.
Menu, Hours And Reservations
COA's website lists hours that include weeknight dinner service, a Friday late-night schedule and weekend brunch, and notes the terrace is designed for year-round use. The site highlights an extensive agave program and a selection of shareable plates crafted to pair with cocktails. Reservations are open now for opening weekend via the restaurant's booking tool.
Where COA Fits In The Gulch
Visit Music City and hotel materials note the Canopy by Hilton debuted last summer with nearly 200 guest rooms and multiple food-and-beverage concepts, and COA joins that roster as a rooftop anchor for the property. The addition underscores The Gulch’s continued push toward boutique hotels and experiential dining options that cater to both visitors and neighborhood regulars.
