I was speaking to the OP who said he was 40ish. Half Barrel probably wouldn't be what he's looking for because its almost strictly a college bar.

The cool part is there bar area is separated by glass doors from the dining area of the restaurant.

I haven't been to the Turkey Creek location, but the Smoky Mountain Brewery has some excellent draft beer. The Black Bear Brown Ale is my personal favorite! I've been to the Maryville location several times to watch NFL games and it's non-smoking and a good place to hang out. You can't go wrong with Roosters or Tin Roof as others have mentioned, but I don't know about their smoking policies. I like the Half Barrel because they have my Shiner Bock on draft, but it doesn't seem to be what you're looking for. Have fun and go Ravens!

I like Blue Chips Sports Pub near West Town Mall off of Kingston Pike, the food is the best in town. Great Burgers, fresh fries, and delicious juicy wings.

Bullfeathers next to Biker Rags on Kingston Pike has $2 wells and decent food on the cheap. I'm not sure about the beer there, sorry.

I missed this post. Bullfeathers is not for you then.
