Brown Bike Eatery & Drinkery — Restaurant in Nashville

Great great spot. I enjoyed the atmosphere the most - eating on the outdoor porch with a nice breeze while great music was playing including Johnny Cash and Dolly Parton. Plus the music volume was perfect which is rare. They are pet friendly and when another couple arrived with their pooch the server promptly brought out a fresh bowl of water in an appropriate water bowl. And she also sanitized her hands afterwards! They even have on the menu build your own s'mores and you can purchase the items then proceed to make your s'mores in their fire pit. I did also find a couple of dislikes. When I arrived there were no signs saying "seat yourself" or... "wait to be seated". So I sat myself. But on such a hot day I would rather have sat inside. However I had no idea where the indoor seating was located. Also the chairs at the outdoor tables were not ideal as the seat is angled away from the table leaning you back away from your plate. All in all the food was great and my first time visiting was very enjoyable. With the music and atmosphere I wanted to...

The owners are from Indy, and own another one downtown on the Canal. They have definitely came a very long way. The first time we went to the one downtown, they literally only served their Italian ice. They now have this restaurant as well, and while we were there we witnessed them starting to clear out the furniture from their new building, to set up indoor seating! The Stromboli we shared was delicious and definitely big enough for 2! The server ( Stacey) was fantastic and went above to make sure we, and all her other guest, received top notch service! We also took note in the service they offer fur babies! The puppies who were waiting for their families to finish were treated with a dog bowl full of nice, cold water for them! That's for sure service that almost all other places could take lessons from! We away only an hour from home, just having a mommy/ daddy weekend get away, but we will be back here for sure! Thank you Stacey for the great service and the rest of the staff for a short, quick, yet...

I rarely leave reviews, but today’s visit warrants one. I would rate all our previous experiences here with 4 stars. We almost 2 hours away and every time we come to Nashville, we visit Brown Bike. Although are food was good per usual, the service was not. We normally sit outside but today we sat in their new inside seating. I would normally give the server grace as I know they are short staffed like everyone else in the service industry, but they were not very busy while we were there (inside or outside). We had to ask for all of our refills which typically is not a problem, but our food took 50 minutes from the time we ordered. We were told they were having difficulty with their POS system which meant our order never went back to the kitchen. Never once were we greeted by or apologized to by the owners for the excessive wait time (our waitress did apologize and was nice). We had to ask for our bill and for a discount. They did oblige, we quickly paid and left.

Advice: good food but our service...
