This is a great spot for the neighborhood, especially if you want to get out of the house but yet go out some place. We came at a good time where a spot was available - but it could have been that reservations were made as it was a place where friends asked us to meet. We started out with the Brussels sprouts and I had a burger in a wrap which was really tasty and flavorful. Sometimes I feel like there's so much bread so this made for a really nice change. We ended the meal with a key lime pie that was pretty good as well. I somehow got an extra order of Pinot Grigio so I can't complain about that, so the service was great. Prices were reasonable as well. read more

We like Scouts pretty well. It's a little expensive for what it is. But the Brussels are great, the drinks are spot on and the burgers are above average. Service is always good. read more

First visit and I'm not sure there'll be a second. Went with a group of friends, on a Wednesday evening. Our server informed us that they'd run out of a few things. Unfortunately they were pretty much what we wanted. No Bud light? C'mon. No house white wine? And no offer to get the pricier one at the house price? Ouch. They were also out of brisket, so no brisket tacos for you! The drinks were good - other than the one that had to be remade and one that came without the correct ingredients. The few items our table did order were tasty- the sweet potato fries were hot and delicious, the succotash flatbread a surprising delight. I was very surprised after all the issues that our table went through there wasn't a little extra - a couple bucks off, a free dessert to share. Nope, just many excuses and apologies. Still, I may give them another chance. Stay tuned... read more

I try to support local restaurants. Every time I have been here it's been bad, bad service, hair in my food, small portions. Haven't been in over 6 months but I live in the neighborhood and decided to give it another try. Ordered delivery and another disappointment, if restaurants won't take pride in what they do I will no longer support it and I feel people have a right to know. read more

Scout's Pub - a bowl of beans and spinach - Burgers Near Me - Franklin, Tennessee

Came in open lots of open tables. We were told they couldn't seat us and it would be 15 minutes. We are a family with 5 children. We were made to wait IN THE RAIN WITH OPEN TABLES to accommodate our family. Did I mention we waited in the rain with our 14 month old? Yeah. Then the 2 in charge were sitting at the front just chatting away. I have never been so upset being treated so rudely in inclement weather while we were soaking. They had 2 tables ready when I came in to tell them we're getting soaked so we are canceling our spot in line. Didn't bat an eye and didn't care..... read more

I wanted to like this place. I love the decor, love the couches on the porch for waiting, love the large patio and the fact that it's dog friendly. I love the wallpaper on one wall for the banquette tables, and most of the menu looks interesting. The problem is, that's not enough. We arrived at 4 PM on a Saturday, and there were about a half dozen staff about and four customers at two different tables. The hostess greeted us promptly enough, but she first tried to seat us at a table right at the front door, then the table adjacent to that in the middle of the room. Did you recall I mentioned there were only two occupied tables in the place at the time? When I asked for a banquette table (only one was occupied), she asked if we could wait while they cleaned off one towards the back that was a 4 top. That was fine, we didn't ask for a 4 top but it was preferred... and that table along with the other two 4 tops that were not in the front door were dirty. At least we noticed fairly soon after that the clan of servers cleaned off the other dirty tables, I guess preparing for dinner crowds, just makes you wonder why they waited. So we're seated after some cleaning, and immediately upon sitting down the quietest server I've ever had approaches and asks what we'd like to drink. The drink menu is a full page small type, so I just ordered a water while I pondered. Thought about noting this place is only 4 months old... are you that used to regulars? He came back three different times as we were talking and hubby had to take a phone call... I'm not 100% sure what he said each time because again... quietest server ever. Our receipt says his name is Oscar. Opted for an autumn sangria ($12) as did hubby and we ordered some Pub Rolls ($9) as a starter. The sangria was OK, but not very fruity and not overly special - esp not for $12 each. The app was quite good, think Mexican inspired egg rolls. About the time our appetizer arrived, a huge storm that had been brewing washed over the restaurant and completely obscured the windows... I'm so glad we had rejected that front door table. For dinner, I had the Harvest Pig sandwich ($16) with sweet potato fries and hubby had Fish & Chips ($16). My sandwich had way too much bread for the meat portion, and the other accompaniments mentioned were barely evident. The fries were OK... but a bit chunky and limp for my taste. Hubby said the fish was good, but their tartar sauce and randomly ranch sauce both are strong on dill.... which he dislikes and does seem odd in tartar sauce. Portion sizes were generous, neither of us finished our meals but we did order the BACC to go because of some yelp mentions and the fact that I love peanut butter. Really love peanut butter. I asked our super quiet server was BACC stood for, and he sheepishly wouldn't say the words "Big Ass" that precede "Chocolate Cake" for this dessert offering. The cake was the biggest disappointment, and at $12, especially disappointing. Maybe I read the menu wrong, but I thought the cake was chocolate cake filled with peanut butter and iced with peanut butter icing. Sounded fabulous - but not what I got. It was definitely chocolate, and if it's possible it was super rich but not super good. I wouldn't have thought that was possible prior to trying the BACC. There was no hint of peanut butter anywhere, and the chocolate cake seemed blah, and the chocolate icing was joined by chocolate syrup and chocolate chips on the outside, joined by ice cream. While it was too much even for two people, and it wasn't the worst dessert I've ever had, but it is possibly the first restaurant dessert where I've ever thrown out the uneaten portion. Dinner above with the two sangrias was $82 plus tip. In our world, that's a nicer dinner but not five star. The problem is normally when you pay that you get a meal that's memorable for positive reasons, and I can't say that happened. We will at some point go back, probably when it's warmer and probably for a burger on the patio with our pup tagging along. Maybe I'll feel differently after that, but for now, not in a hurry for that second chance. read more

Bad service, manager lied about wait times and were very rude to us. We waited over an hour when we were told the wait would be 45 minutes, so we waited and finally went back up to the front to ask about the wait, then told it'd be another 30-45 minutes for a table. There were open tables throughout the restaurant but we somehow were not able to be seated anywhere. The hostess treated us like we were an inconvenience. Management did not seem to care or know how to run a restaurant. There are better options, go elsewhere. read more

Great spot for lunch or dinner. Happy hr is 3-6pm. Tons of options homemade choices. Kids menu available

Dined here 7/6/23 for dinner. Generally we have had good service and food here, but last night was a huge exception. Not sure what was going on, but it took nearly 20 minutes just to get water/drinks and then over an hour wait for food. When we inquired as to the issue, we were first told one of the chefs had an injury. Then we were told by the waitress and manager that they were filling a high number of take-out orders. Why would they let take -out orders take priority over in-house guests? Stop taking take-out orders if you are backed up! We were not the only table not happy. Most around us were not happy. The worst part, the manager didn't really seem to care. Her statement was that they were slammed with takeouts, but no real apology at all. Our waitress was not very attentive, nor did she offer an apology until is was time to pay (and tip!). They did take $20 off our dinner/drinks for four. My time and enjoyment eating out is worth way more than $20! Not sure I'm willing to risk that experience again in the near future. read more

Been in several times. Always very good. Consistent and great service. Wish you guys were in Berry Farms!

Food is excellent. If only the staff was trained to take care of the guests and actually talk to them and remember to place orders. Have visited a dozen times or more and always, always without fail, service at the bar is truly disinterested and lacking any concern for actually looking after the customer who pays to come to this restaurant. read more

Went back in after trying to eat at the new joint a couple of doors down and was pleasantly surprised at the staff improvements. Wife and I had a salad and a burger and everything was good. Hopefully the new staff, seems like a bunch of folks jumped ship to the other joint will make this a more regular option for those close by. read more

First time here, amazing setting, service and fantastic menu and dog friendly patio. Will definitely be back soon. read more

Great service, clean restaurant, and very good food. Prices are too high for the portion sizes. We had a corn starter on the menu. It's very good; however, it is served with nothing. We had to pay extra for chips so we could share. $10 for a small bowl of corn with only a spoon to consume seems off. Again great food but revisit either your portion sizes or prices. read more

Went to lunch here on June 11, 2020. I had the best sandwich and an amazing IPA called Hippies and Cowboys! I highly recommend this restaurant! Everyone I was with enjoyed their meal. One person had the slaw burger, another had the wings and my sandwich had Brie on it! So good! read more

I stopped in today for a late lunch, and my party was generally impressed with our meals. My partner said the burger was fantastic, and I thought the shrimp tacos were light and flavorful. I really liked the Brussels sprouts too. The service was pretty decent, and all employees were very friendly. If I'm in the Westhaven area again, I'll probably swing by to try the burger for myself. read more

Nice place for lunch. Good food and friendly staff. Nice bar area and plenty of seating indoors and out.

2.5 stars. Convenient but consistently a let down (Pre and post covid). Order a $20 (overpriced) salad and they'll forget the dressing. Order a burger medium and it will be cooked well done. Order sweet potato fries and get regular- wait until you're done with your meal before they bring out the correct side. I wish I could say these issues were rare and infrequent. Prices would be ok if service and food was good. read more

seated quickly, but the patio seating which is a favorite was full. Food was great and the wait staff is friendly and attentive. read more

Great place. The food and service was wonderful and a waiter by the name of Hayden was super. The restaurant was becoming crowded but Hayden managed to bring our food very quickly to us. Hayden wrote on all of our bills, "Bless You." He is a real asset to Scouts Pub. read more

Scout's Pub - Super over cooked snapper & charred Brussels. - Burgers Near Me - Franklin, Tennessee

They had Poutine as an appetizer on the Restaurant week menu but not the regular menu so we went for restaurant week. We have been in search of Poutine like you find in Canada and some of the northern states. I've never been lucky enough to taste the real deal but my husband has. The restaurant week menu included a choice between two appetizers, three entrees, and pudding for dessert. We both ordered the Poutine for our appetizer. It wasn't like the dish you get up north because it was served with brisket and the cheese wasn't melted but this version was delicious. I then had the Quail for my entree. It was crispy and cooked perfectly. Everything was so good we must come back to try some of the items on the regular menu. The pub itself was very nice. There were plenty of tables and a lot of seating at the bar. There were several TVs if you are interested in watching a game while you eat. The host that greeted us was very friendly and the service was fantastic. read more

I have to say I a sad we do not have one of these type of places down in Spring Hill. This place rocks. Great vibe, great service and the food. Just got to say the fried pork tenderloin sandwich is awesome on the potato bun. Had the pub fries as well and tasty as they can be!!! I have to say this place is great and I see it becoming the neighborhood local pub hang place. Like I said, just wish I had one like this down in my small town area. read more

I really really want to like this place. Their food is pretty darn good (albeit a little overpriced). But I'm not sure I've ever been to a place with such consistently slow service. read more

This is such a cute, pleasant little place. It is decorated really nice, very clean and nice staff. We shared the wings which weren't great but our main courses made up for it. I had a pesto chicken sandwich which was amazing and my husband had some sort of three cheese mushroom melt which he loved. The fries were very good too! They were hand-cut style. We sat outside and we never felt rushed or pressured to leave quickly. Our waitress was very nice. We will definitely be back! read more

Not the largest interior but still a place to go with a group of family or friends to enjoy a meal and watch the game. Located inside the Westhaven residential and retail community, Scout's has a large menu of American cuisine offerings. I recommend the fish and chips. The prices are reasonable depending on your order selection. The only negative I had was the hostess eating food on the bar counter of the restaurant in the view of patrons while on a shift. It wasn't the greatest form of professionalism. read more

Scouts pub was an awesome place to eat with an awesome atmosphere. Caleb was Our server, if you ever get the chance to go, ask for his section! he was the best server we have had at any restaurant in a long time! Highly recommend this pub! read more

My husband and I live in the neighborhood and are frequent visitors to Scout's Pub. The food is ok, nothing to rave about. The one thing to rave about, though, is the bartender/waiter Sal. He has the best personality and really makes our visits there enjoyable. He is a huge asset to the organization. read more

Redefining hospitality to No-spitality, the theme of my dining experience was indifference. From the host to the server to the lack of acknowledgement from the seven different employees I saw, Scouts Pub was the least friendly environment that I have experienced. The pros...attractive location, good outdoor seating, decent macaroni and cheese. The cons...lethargic server(seated more than 10 minutes without being approached, had to ask for silverware, added charge for side when I was told there is no up charge, cold hamburger, state, dry crostini, began closing the restaurant more than an hour before closing, no acknowledgment by manager. Very disappointed and Weill not return, much better options and hopefully whatever management Scouts Pub has will be engaged to deliver a quality, professional positive dinning experience. read more

WOW what a horrible place!!! We walked in and the "hostess " barely acknowledged my wife and 2 girls. We sat there for 15 minutes with menus but no server or anyone even stopping by our table to see what we might like to drink. We watched other people from Westhaven community come and get sat and receive drinks immediately. I guess people who are brown and of Asian decent don't get acknowledged in this community. That is sad that this kind of thing exists in 2021. read more

We eat at Scouts three times a week because it's our neighborhood go to. Unfortunately they have made a decision to short staff in every area. We ordered drinks before dinner tonight and 45 minutes later the drinks had not arrived, but our dinner and appetizers came out all at once. Drinks maybe five or ten minutes later. We would have loved to have ordered a second drink but we weren't going to sit around for another hour. Other tables were equally upset and waving their drink glasses trying to get refills. Huge mistake on the part of Scouts. I felt really sorry for the waiters, who were running around like crazy trying to take care of everyone, but with no back up from the bar. Two waiters were handling a full house. Scouts is severely understaffed at this time. The food is still good though. read more

Solid local joint, always friendly. Most everything is good if you eat it there but the take-out delivery experience is totally different. We go a couple times a month but no longer order food as we've never had a remotely good experience. read more

Convenient location for west side of downtown Franklin. Very clean & mild bistro vibe. Good beer on tap. The menu is bistro / pub like. The Tuscan sandwich is outstanding. The acoustic treatment in the room makes for a pleasant busy time. Lovely experience overall. read more

Good variety of food and excellent taste. Really happy with the service and timeliness. High recommendations for here. Try it once and leave wanting to come back again. read more

Good food but poor service and food is way overpriced for the pub type of food and the quantity!!!

I wish this place was cheaper and more casual. There's a reason Oscar's next door is always packed.

Used to be one of my favorite places to eat . Took a friend there for dinner . I loved the chicken curry and ordered that . The prices were all higher than before and when they brought our dinner they were on these tiny appetizer or salad plates . The portions were half of what they used to be . Our waiter was a young guy who never got 3 drink orders correct the whole time we were there despite asking him literally 6 or 7 times to bring them . Some of the drinks were in un-chilled cans and we never got ice . It took 1 1/2 hours to finish the meal process and we were seated right by the door on a cold day despite asking to sit at one of the 5 tables open away from the door . Apparently they were all reserved for friends of the staff and stayed empty for most of our meal . Won't be back -ever ! If you want tiny portions and high prices with terrible service go here . The Californians will all love it I'm betting ! read more

Very disappointed. Overpriced and overrated in all facets. The reviewer that said best burger in Franklin is either an idiot or a bot. $9 for 3.75 oz house red wine. Been several times now and not going back. Underwhelming at best every time. So why the 1 star? Here's a recap of our latest adventure if you care to read. We're a party of 5, 2 adults, 7 year old, 4 year old & 1 year old. It's Jan 1st, I get it, so I called and asked if they were open, wait time, etc. was told 'no problem, no wait.' We get there 20 minutes later (mind you it's 5:30 pm when we get there) and we're asked if we have a reservation. I said no, I just called and was told it wasn't an issue. So we were sat begrudgingly by snobby hostess, not a big deal. Waiter comes and says kitchen is backed up due to 'to-go orders' and for us to be patient. No worries, I get it. We ordered pretty quickly due to the heads up from the waiter and 1.5 hours later, we had been served 1 kids meal. We got the rest of our food 'to go' like everyone else and we're out the door. Manager comped our meal, which is fine, but walked by several times and never said a word. Left the dirty work for his poor waiter. Very, very bad leadership. Ryan, if you read this, I wouldn't hire you to manage a Waffle House. If you've gotten to this point in my review you can tell I'm mad as hell, so doesn't matter much to keep pilin' it on. Just know, we will never, ever go back, not will I suggest it to anyone I come across. read more

Normally, I have positive experiences at Scout's, but on a recent visit, that was not the case. I ordered a martini, it tasted like no martini I had ever had before. I sent it back and then ordered a cosmopolitan. Once again, the drink was terrible! My husband tasted it and grimaced saying that is nasty tasting! I asked to speak with the manager to let her know that we had a bad experience with drinks from the bartender. I explained that I order and make those two drinks all the time and just wanted her to be aware that the drinks were not correct. She basically blew me off and said "NOT MY BARTENDER"! Hmm, not at all what I expected! I left there shaking my head, can not believe that was her response! I am angry now, just remembering that response! So disappointed!! read more
