Nashville is absolutely obsessed with Dolly Parton. And for good reason. In addition to being an incredibly prolific writer of all-time-great songs, a fashion icon and a famously good boss, the East Tennessee native is also a philanthropist and the founder of illiteracy-fighting nonprofit Imagination Library. Thusly, folks all over town regularly and happily honor the queen with murals and statues and more, and the latest outfit to join the chorus of homage-payers is beloved East Side watering hole Dino’s. This year, Dino’s put up an unofficial “Dolly’s Lemonade Stand” in its patio out back — a massive lemon-shaped pop-up bar where patrons can skip the inside line to get their drinks and food. It’s the same old rock-solid bar food and drinks we’ve come to expect from Dino’s, but served from a giant lemon! With a giant Dolly on top! And she is … anatomically correct! You’ve gotta see it for yourself.
