Always a go-to when in the MTSU area. The menu has a variety that should please most people. The dishes are prepared to order and arrive fresh from the kitchen. Portions are generous, I had half of my wife's quesadilla for lunch during the week, and flavors are well-balanced. Lots of sports on the many TVs if you're interested. Choice of indoor or outdoor seating with carryout as an option. Comfortable, reasonably quiet dining room with great service. read more

Not a bad spot at all! I came here on a Friday evening and it was pretty packed. I honestly didn't expect it to be as packed as it was, but they had a pretty big crowd. We got seated right away, though. I tried the let that mango spring cocktail they had. It wasn't bad at all. It was VERY sour so if you like sour drinks, you will like this one. I tried their wings both the buffalo and dry rub. They weren't bad. I also tried their Randy's meatzza pizza and their burger. Their pizza sauce wasn't bad, either. In all, I didn't have a bad experience. They have a variety on their menu so it was a pretty cool experience. read more

The Boulevard Bar & Grille - Margarita, Fried Pickles, beer - Sports Bars Near Me - Murfreesboro, Tennessee

My name is Juan Torres, I worked at Boulevard Bar & Grill and 2J's Bar & Grill for about three years. During that time, I regularly worked 13- to 14-hour shifts, day and night, with little to no time off. I barely had time for my family or myself. I am making this statement so people know how kitchen employees are treated at Boulevard Bar & Grill and 2J's Bar & Grill. In my experience, the owner, Jeff Noble, along with the managers, Talia and Leah, allowed undocumented workers to be employed and, in my opinion, took advantage of their situation. Many employees were paid in cash and were not paid overtime at the legally required time-and-a-half rate, even after working long hours. Instead, they were paid their regular hourly rate. Kitchen staff were often expected to work extremely long hours because many workers felt they had little choice but to accept the conditions. Another serious issue was the cleanliness of the restaurants. From what I personally witnessed, there were cockroaches in the kitchen, and I believe health and sanitation standards were not taken seriously. These conditions put both employees and customers at risk. I also witnessed employees being fired without what appeared to be a fair reason or proper explanation. After dedicating three years to these restaurants and helping as a kitchen assistant manager, I was suddenly let go after new management came in. I'm sharing my experience because I believe workers deserve to be treated fairly and customers deserve to know the conditions behind the scenes. My hope is that the appropriate authorities will look into these concerns and that employees who are still there can receive the fair treatment and safe working environment they deserve. read more

Great menu, with so many items to choose from! Pizza, tacos, sandwiches, teriyaki salmon, all sorts of good things. Service was very nice and attentive. And we were looking for a sports bar, so they definitely had the ambiance covered. I don't go to Murfreesboro that much, but I would gladly go back! read more

I ordered a pepperoni pizza with extra pepperoni that I was more than willing to pay for but received a pizza with approximately 12 pepperoni on it. The place wasn't even packed, didn't think it was possible to mess up such a simple order. Definitely wouldn't recommend this place! read more

Overall satisfied. The wife and I shared some appetizers and a bowl of chili. The chili was surprisingly very good and served nice and hot. Fried pickles were a hit. Southwest egg rolls were ok, they were served barely warm. Service was very good and did not take too long. The ambiance was relaxing. Lots of TVs to catch sports etc. Very nice experience. read more

I love the boulevard because of it's accessible parking, location to campus/downtown, and large covered patio. However, the last few times we've visited, they have underperformed. Last week, I ordered the Parmesan Crusted Chicken. I love the corkscrew pasta and the chicken has a great taste. However, the last two times I have ordered it, the noodles have been cold. Not lukewarm, but actually cold. It's clear they're pre-cooked and frozen or left in the fridge-- however, they were not properly warmed before being presented. Most recently, I had family visiting from out of town (party of four). I decided this time to get the Margherita pizza after getting cold noodles two visits in a row. This was the right choice. The pizza was crispy and delicious. However, one of the orders at my table was misplaced. Everyone had food for about 15 minutes before the server came out to explain the entree was never prepared. It seems like the boulevard's service and food quality is going down hill. Nothing on the menu really stands out as fantastic-- expect mediocre bar food and service (which is expected when a restaurant has a menu as large/vast as they do). read more

So we came here after church for a bite and we were not disappointed. The service was friendly and attentive and the food was good. It's a big restaurant so it was busy on a Sunday but it wasn't hard to find a spot. They have outside seating too. They have a big bar and TVs all around the place. The atmosphere is definitely bar/grill but family friendly. We ordered the Memphis burger, the Baja fish tacos and a 12" pepperoni pizza. Everything was really good but my favorite was the burger. The pull pork bbq was on point. They also had drink specials (not picture) but the glass mason jars was massive! I opted for my favorite, draft Guinness. My kids enjoyed their pizza and the space we got had a window my daughter just loved. The bathroom could use an update or a good cleaning but place overall could too. Prices are normal and the drink special for draft was pretty good. Overall, I would recommend and come back. read more

Walked here for a small lunch in between walking route and glad we did. Gave our legs a rest and a chance to warm back up and refuel before finishing our walk. We ordered the jalapeño poppers just a half order which were good but not a traditional popper. Then my husband ordered the Blvd burger while I ordered the cobb salad. The salad was good but it had alot of brown pieces of lettuce that I couldn't eat. So lettuce didn't seem that fresh or crisp. Everything had good flavor and the wait staff was on top of their game with refills and checking on you. Nice place as this is our first time actually eating inside versus just to go. read more

Enjoyed a casual business lunch at Boulevard Bar & Grill on the edge of Middle Tennessee State University. Friendly service. Will return another day for a draught brewski. Yuge selection of beers on tap. Chose Fish and Chips with coleslaw and fries. Tasty. Would order again. Flexible with our order to swap a veggie for the fries. Free onsite parking in rear. TVs visible from the bar area. High-top seating as well as booth seating are available in the dining area. Good for groups. Happy Hour, 3-6 pm, Mon-Fri. And appetizer Happy Hour until 5 pm. Small Gripe. The place was loud with only half the tables full at lunch time. Not much can be done because the walls are brick and ceiling is tall. PS Returned later for a fine Nashville Amber Lager on draught. read more

I stopped in to The Boulevard with a couple friends for lunch and while the food was good, we probably won't be back. To begin, the parking lot is located behind the building, meaning that when you walk in, you first see the bar, and have to walk across the restaurant to get the hostess stand. Once we were seated, we noticed that between the many TVs and other diners, the restaurant was very loud. Even though the restaurant didn't seem to be busy, service was slow. Our group ordered burgers and enjoyed everything we tried, especially the potato chips! Although we enjoyed our meal, we likely won't be back because of the organizational problems and the overpriced menu. read more

Ordered through Ubereats. the food was bleh at best. the containers are not made for delivery so everything becomes soggy. Also, they charge more for items than if dining in. To me that's bad business practice and based on this they probably will never get my money again. read more

I wish I could give this 3.5 stars, but since the service was great, I ended up choosing 4 stars. My biggest complaint is that the food was good, not great. I got the fish sandwich and the brussel sprouts. I think I enjoyed the brussel sprouts more than the sandwich. But do people go here for spectacular food? Probably not, and to go and watch a game and meet up with friends, the food is good enough. And there are a lot of options to choose from. It can satisfy a lot of different tastes, so it's a safe option to choose when you have a crowd. read more

I got the avocado club wrap with tots for lunch. The wrap is pretty big. However, it wasn't anything special. It was decent at best. The tots were nice and crunchy though. read more

The Boulevard is a sports bar: yet it's more than that. I have been here with family, in small groups, and one large event. We have done take out numerous times as well. Why? The food is unpretentious but tasty and prepared to order. Burgers are creative yet sometimes cooked more like medium well but the wide range of sandwiches are spot on. So too are the wraps. And I prefer the onion straws over the fries! The pizzas, calzones and pasta are among my favorite dishes. Generous servings--the house calzone and chicken fettuccine are my go-tos. Among the entrees, recommend the fish and chips--just the right amount of crunch. The meatloaf is fine but the gravy a bit salty. The appetizers and salads are among the best values--love the bam bam shrimp and the boneless wings, lots of zingy sauces to choose from The bar is best for beer, lots of good locals on tap. Wine list is forgettable. Mixed drinks are too manufactured and bland for my tastes. In other words there is something for everyone. And to top it off, the servers are uniformly great, quick, attentive and friendly read more

Enjoyed happy hour and trivia this week at the Boulevard! The server was super helpful and made sure we knew the drink specials, and showed us how to get signed up for trivia. I enjoyed the Buffalo chicken dip that was the perfect amount of "heat", it was more cheesy than spicy; and the quesadilla that was encrusted in some delicious seasoning. Great atmosphere and it seems like they have some great deals every night if the week! read more

Service a tad slow - roasted Brussel sprouts amazing! Pizza looked great burger was pretty good.

The Boulevard is a great local spot. Beers are two for one during happy hour which is awesome. They will bring your second drink to the table in a little bucket of ice - if you're sitting at the bar, the bartender will pour your second drink when you're ready. We love to get the Buffalo chicken sliders and pepper Jack poppers which are just fried pepper Jack cheese cubes. In Pennsylvania where my family is from, there are restaurants with fried cheddar cheese cubes that I love and can only really get in PA so if the boulevard could add those in addition to the pepper Jack poppers, I'm pretty sure I would never go anywhere else! read more

The chicken and rice soup is my favorite quick meal to pick up from here. The ambiance is slightly lacking, it's usually almost empty when I've been in, and the bartenders are polite but could be friendlier. We would probably go more often if they were more customer service oriented. The food is delicious so we usually just order it to go. read more

Lea is the Best server and great food . Shout out to the boulevard bar and grille ! Yeah

The food menu was outstanding. So many choices to choose from and it took a few minutes to decide which is always good. The service was good not a lot of waiting for the waitress at all. The ambiance is what it is and that is a sports bar and grill. I recommend this place hands down. This is also the first time I've ever visited this establishment. read more

We eat here often but last night I made a reservation for a large group. We might not have needed a reservation since there were plenty of tables, but when we got there the table was set with water, menus, and silverware. So nice. Our waitress was a pro. One person to care for 13 of us! She kept up beautifully and was even able to break the bill down for us. I thought I was going to have to pay and then figure it out for myself, but no, she had it all under control. Everyone was pleased with what they ordered. And we had a wide variety of orders! The pizza was a hit. The Mac and cheese balls were fun. I usually get the kale salad (don't scoff--it's quite good) but I got the prime beef sandwich. Their burgers are always good. read more

If I could leave a negative 3 stars I WOULD! But was forced to leave "a star" in order to post this.... My first and last time here. First thing, service SUCKED! 4 employees behind the bar, 6-8 ppl sitting around the bar and it takes me 8-10 minutes to give up on them approaching me to where I have to flag one down to get me a beer. They are and we're so consumed with their fellow employee's and the regulars at the bar. I always wait and observe until I step up... I almost left and should've. Second thing, DO NOT come here for wings. They are dry, overcooked, tasteless, served with rubbery celery and dry as dry can be carrots. NOT TO MENTION the ranch side that I ordered was so milky and watery. Meaning to stretch out the ranch dressings, restaurants add milk to thin it out. This place is awful on so many levels. I as a local WILL NEVER RETURN nor will or would I ever recommend this disaster. Long story short, stay away from here! Trust me. read more

This is one of my go-to places for a picky group. They have a HUGE menu variety. Seafood, sandwiches, pizza, apps, pasta, salads, Greek, Mexican, you name it! The staff is always friendly and gives great service. They have a big drink menu, too. Happy hour, trivia night, sports games, and it's conveniently located close to the main square, right across the street from MTSU. They also take on big parties for your birthday or graduation :) read more

Problem with Rocky's meat pizza. Prepared properly, the best, hands down. Today was the second time my husband was served one with a raw crust. The kitchen was going to "re-make one". What they did was shove it back into the oven until it was charred black on the bottom in big spots with charred toppings. Crust? You guessed it, still raw. Heck, the crust was gross raw and not even 1/2" thick. For $25. We paid our tab and left, whole uneaten pizza in its box. Once, I get it. Twice? No. We may not return. read more

I love going to boulevard for happy hours and their great drink selection but this past time was exceptional because of our bartender, Tara.

Next time we come in, we will ask for Tara!! read more

I ate at the Boulevard tonight for the first time. The ambiance was a sports bar. I have ordered to go from them before and had good experiences, but the dining in experience was less than stellar. The fish fry was just ok--the fries were lukewarm which was not great. Our server came around and took our friends order but not ours initially. I don't think I'll be back anytime soon. read more

Just across the pockmarked street from MTSU, I have come to the realization that summer is the season to visit the Boulevard. No crowds, no rowdy yelling at the football games on the tube, just a nice peaceful place to meet with friends, have a drink and a meal. The most difficult part of the visit is at the start when one must select a dish from a large variety of food. In broad categories, there are sandwiches, tacos, pizzas, calzones, appetizers, burgers, and I'm sure I've missed one or maybe more categories. The Hawaiian Pizza drew my attention but the Cajun Pepperoni won out. It was good; the pepperoni was seared in the oven which gave it a good fried fat taste. The Macaroni and Cheese balls shouldn't work but they do. They were balls of cheesy goodness and I think I will order a set my next visit. And the rest of the review: Attentive service, good beer specials, and lotsa teevees. read more

I am quite surprised by this place. Being right next to a university, figured it would be all about that. But this place is great. I had a 5 piece app of boneless wings in smoky bbq sauce. Very tasty. Loved the crunch but still swimming in sauce. Then I had a house salad with blackened shrimp. Great blackening seasoning and the shrimp had no shell tail!!!! Bonus, loved this feature!!!! Washed it down with sweet tea l, very nice blend of brewed ice tea. Again, totally surprised by this joint. I will be coming back here for sure. Decent service as well. read more
