I've been to this bar quite a few times and have always enjoyed their food. Four days ago I tried the bar and the experience was great. Bartender was fast with drinks and would ask at an appropriate pace if we needed refills. The food was spot on. The grilled chicken sandwich was cooked beautifully and the honey mustard sauce made it even better. The black beans and rice will be a side I will highly recommend to my friends. My biggest issue at the bar was seeing the planes hanging above us covered in dust. I think they're neat but do not want to eat under something that can drop dust balls in my food. read more

Sam's Place - "Grilled Chicken sandwich with Black Beans & Rice" - Sports Bars Near Me - Hendersonville, Tennessee

Sam's is a great neighborhood joint with indoor and outdoor seating on a floating deck. Though my family always enjoys the ribs, wings and pizzas the chicken sandwich and veggie burger are heavily underrated. Don't over think it, roll into Sam's anytime the thought crosses your mind! read more

Our bartender/server Leslie is the absolute best - so friendly and accommodating! Food is delicious and portions very generous. What's not to like about great service and great food! read more

Here's a novel idea, instead of offering Easter endless brunch from 10 am - 2 pm, and running out of "endless" brunch by 1:00, maybe you should just make sure you have enough food on hand to make it to 2 pm or just make your offering to 1 pm. Just a thought. read more

The vibes here are great! Plenty of tables and bar seating as well as daily happy hour. The food, absolutely yummy. The club sandwich, the perfectly crisp fries, and the mac and cheese was the best part. I had half of my sandwich leftover! Absolutely returning here. read more

Not too crowded during games... bar food above average here. Older crowd but I am an old fart too. Enjoyed the moment I was in town

We've been here every time we come to TN, and it's a great place for families. A nice selection of appetizers, a family favorite, is the fried pickles. Service is usually pretty swift, and the sports theme gives you a lot to look at. There us a ton of decor to keep toddlers busy trying to "find" things. read more

Sams has great personable servers, great pizza, great weekday specials and amazing food and drinks with very large screen tvs to watch sports. read more

Great environment for watching the game. But don't let the sports bar environment fool you - they also do a great job on the food. I usually go for the blackened fish tacos with black beans and rice. Yum! read more

Food was good. We got a burger, a Rueben, and club sandwich, all of which were tasty. Not wow inspiring but good. The artichoke dip was good, lots of chips and a small bowl so a bit expensive for the small amount of dip but we tore it up. The cranberry spritzer have barely any liquor. They were busy so while our server was very pleasant, it moved a bit slow. Great place to watch a sports game and the food an good. The inside reminded me of a bass pro with all the taxidermy animals. read more

This has become our after movie, and late night stop. I've eaten here enough to make a few general statements. The staff is friendly and it's a comfortable environment. You can easily relax and decompress here. The food is decent. Nothing special, but typical bar food. I've ordered the Caesar salad a few times and it's large and has maybe too much parmesan cheese. In my most recent visit, the chicken wings were huge and juicy but lacked enough sauce, I had to ask for more sauce, and they were slightly undercooked. Not to the point that they were inedible, but they could have stayed in the oil another minute. The beer is cold and there is a nice selection. If you're looking for a good local sports bar any time of day, head on over to Sam's! read more

We came with the family for dinner. We had a party of six. We were able to get seats without a wait. Yay! I order the salad with salmon. It had fresh ingredients and the side of ranch was fine I wouldn't order the salmon again because you do not get much as. It is t worth the additional cost My spouse got the Reuben. He was disappointed it was not toasted. read more

We were sat outside and waited for 10 minutes with no service. Someone finally came out and asked us if we had service and we said no but by that time, I had plenty of time to review other bars nearby and decided to spend my money elsewhere. read more

Wow second time is a charm! We met Eli bartender and the Manager Mr. Walsh. The first wasn't bad it's just this was much better experience than last time. Not that last time was disappointing but this was better. I had the Sam's salad with salmon and my husband had bbq baby back ribs. Yummy! I apologize that I didn't take any photos but everything was delicious and fresh! There's not anywhere in Hendersonville that I have been that the Manager came out and introduced himself/herself and asked about my experience at the restaurant. Well it happened today and you would be surprised what that means to the customer. A lot of times they want to share their experience. Thanks for your service at Sam's Sports Grill, Eli and Mr. Walsh. read more

It was busy on this Saturday night so there was a 20 minute wait. Atmosphere was good. Waitress ok. Kitchen was trash it took like an hour for this reheated bar food. One of our party decided to bounce cause it took so long. They were slow to get drinks out, slow to get water out. Tip? Not much. Got the Burger with fries it was delicious. Had a few of those Kentucky Bourbon beers, they were smooth and a surprise that I enjoyed them that much. I would go back just hope service improves. read more

My husband and I love this sports bar....Wings have great marinade with rosemarry, chicken tenders are crunchy, and the onion rings are perfect. Even with all this incredible food the thing we look forward to and appreciate the most is good service and Hope never disappoints. I would ask for her table if you decide to dine in . You want be disappointed!!! Highly recommend. read more

This place is a hendersonville staple. The menu isn't huge but most things are pretty solid. I enjoy the Garbage Pizza, the wings, the Fish Sandwich, Burgers and their chicken tenders are pretty darn good too. Best Honey Mustard in town! You just can't go wrong here. Great place to watch a game as well. read more

If sports is your religion, this is a great place to catch a game. TV's in every corner, a very large horseshoe bar with multiple TV's to view, left menu with all your favorite bar-type items, and a fun staff. The atmosphere during college game day is awesome. read more

This bar was really great! The food was amazing and came out pretty quickly! The service was great as well! I definitely want to go back and try the brownie but I was too full to try on this visit! All the food was very fresh and came out quickly read more

Love Sam's. Come here often. Good food but the main reason I am so loyal is because of my waiter Ian. He is a wonderful waiter and gives just the right attention to all of his customers. I moved to TN last August and decided to try Sam's. Ian was our waiter from the first day. The food is delicious but the service brings me back. I only come here on his days because I know I will leave happy. read more

We found this place after 2 failed attempts at getting Bar-B-Q. It's a typical sports bar with plenty of tvs. It would be my goto place to go watch big games, if I lived here. They do not have any shellfish on the menu, which is a plus for me. I would recommend this place if you are looking for bar food. There isn't anything super unique about this location. read more

I've NEVER had any bad meals here! Stopped in today just to catch some live Olympics while my dog was at the groomer in same area. Andrew is a really experienced and personable bartender. He was polite & professional not only to me but others he served. Happy Hour at 3pm made it more fun! Great Vibe to watch any sporting event and talk about local stuff going on in Hendersonville. Made my day read more

I get off work late and this is one of the few places I can get supper before going home. They don't run a lot of staff, so you have to be a little patient, but so far they have not let me down. The wait staff have lots of tables, but they hustle and get things done. Just make sure you have everything you need when they bring you the food as it might be a little while before they get back to you. The food has been great every time. I recommend this place for small individuals and couples. I don't recommend this place for large parties. read more

After 15 minutes sitting in Sam's, no server has approached the table. I am leaving to go somewhere else.

I usually come in have a good time food is usually Amazing, but this time it was like nothing was the same the Parmesan cheese smelled horrible to the point where my brother wasn't eating his pizza anymore and my burger was undercooked and there was 2 strands of hair in the bun as well read more

What has happened to this place? Being in the industry in the past the things I will point out are just bad management. Bussers pushing stuff to the floor when they clean tables, papers all over the floor at 6:30in the evening, what will it look list 9? Food is still ok, not sure what happened. Several tables open but long lines waiting to get in. If you read my previous post this was my go to place 2-3 times a week. I have not been back in months, but really was hoping that they changed their ways, but clearly the mgmt doesn't care about feedback otherwise I would have to believe they would fix it. Much better sports bars in Hendersonville. Don't waste your $$$here! read more

We received great service when we arrived, but it seams the server maybe was over-sat? Meaning he had too many tables to serve, because he didn't come back to check on us for a long time! I wanted another beer before happy hour ended, but he didn't return to us until 20 minutes after happy hour ended. I asked him if I could get the happy hour price because he didn't check on us and I wanted to order another beer well before happy hour ended. He said yes. My bill showed regular price for second beer. My friend and I ordered the chicken salad. It was good but not great. Very mediocre service and mediocre food. Way too many restaurants in area to return to this one. read more

We will be back! Friday night game night is usually pretty busy. Our party of 4 got sat in 15 mins and had good, quick, and efficient service. They made sure we had TVs to see the game we wanted to watch. We had a good view to watch the NBA finals and UT baseball. Our entrees were hot and tasty. Most people don't ask the condiments you need ahead of time but we were asked and everything needed came out with the food so there was no wait. The desserts were amazing! You cannot eat one alone. read more

Many food options for all tastes and typical sports bar menu. The had a few rare options like barramundi sandwich. The chicken sandwich was good. Fish tacos enjoyable. read more

Sports. Grill. As long as you get that, you'll be fine here. Casual, neighbor-hoody, and large. Think Buffalo Wild Wings, only more open. Remember the old saying, "Don't expect too much, and you won't be disappointed", lol! Not a "date night" spot, unless you've been dating 3+ years. read more

Nice sports bar with great food and good happy hour drink prices. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu. This visit I had the chef salad. It was large and full of meat. Service is always good here and they have plenty of TVs around the bar area. They have a great club sandwich and really good pizzas as well. read more

Sam's Place - Chef salad - Sports Bars Near Me - Hendersonville, Tennessee

Everything on this menu is always so good and service is great! I recommend this place to everyone.

Want a quick lunch during the day? Go here. Want to have an afternoon of day drinking? Go here. Dinner with the family? Go here. Late night spot for drinks and appetizers? Go here! Want to watch the sportsballs and have some beers? Go here! We love this bar, and all of the bartenders. It's always flattering when the bartenders remember you, by name or even what ya drink, even when you haven't been there for months. We walk in and feel like we're hanging out with friends, and that's a quality too far and few in between! read more

Me and my family come into Sam's weekly. The food is great, atmosphere is great, and the service is great! Ian is always our server when we come to Sam's. There's been a couple times we've had to wait to sit in his section because he is so popular! His attitude, attentiveness, and smile keeps bringing us back. If anyone goes to Sam's, sit with him! You won't be disappointed! read more

Just driving through, on our way to Ft Lauderdale. Honestly, this place had the best cole slaw I've ever eaten. The ribs were spectacular. Slow roasted so they were tender, but then they were grilled to have a bit of charring. read more

Pretty chill little joint. Came here for lunch and upon walking in, the atmosphere reminds me of an old Bennigans Restaurant from the 90's. Maybe it's the colors w he wood and the vibe...unsure but it's totally an old Bennigans feeling. I grew up in them bc my step dad ran several in Oklahoma as a kid. So I loved it! Haha I had the chicken caesar wrap and it was very good! Perfect amount of dressing and chopped salad w chicken and Parmesan. It was very good. The waitress was tentative and food came out quickly. I would say there's a lot of places to eat and while it was good, it didn't really have that level to get a 5 star review nor do I know if I would ever go back. Maybe if I lived nearby I would but it's not a place I'd go out of my way to return to. read more

This used to be a Sports Bar or Sports Grill. Last few times I have been, I had to ask to have the TV's on and to put on a live football or baseball game instead of Pickleball or Cornhole championships. The other night there was seven TV's off and the Yankees were possibly having a MLB record broken and the NFL had their live Thursday Night Game... Not enough servers, restaurant is half empty and there was a 45- 90 minute wait. The few servers they had were trying hard to cover...no manager on site... read more

I was visiting Nashville for work and cam across sam's while searching for a place to watch the Astros! This place is filled with TVs and great for large groups. The food was pretty good and the atmosphere was equally as good. I ordered the chicken Caesar salad. I really enjoyed the salad, it was tossed in just the right amount of dressing and the chicken was flavorful. It wasn't the absolute best of places for food but if you are looking for a good happy hour and place to watch sports this is a good one Unfortunately the Astros lost but we had a good time! read more

Sams is a decent local place to grab a bite. It's not the best but not the worst. We had a beer and one of their signature cocktails (cranberry something or other). Food was a Ruben and a meat lovers pizza. The Ruben was good but could have used more sauerkraut. The corned beef needed a bit more flavor but the portion was good. The fries they served with the sandwich were really good. The "hand crafted" pizza was a bit disappointing. Not a lot of cheese. The meats were tiny little diced up pieces rather than what I would consider real meat. I was highly disappointed in the beer choices. For a big sports bar to only have basic bud, bud light, Miller light type beers and nothing craft or local is just lame. The decor and atmosphere are great with lots of TV's to watch all possible sports. So a minimal choice of crappy beers just dumb. read more
