My boyfriend and I tried Muddy Boots for the first time a couple days ago for brunch. I had hot tea and biscuits and gravy. So good. The gravy was peppery; just the way I like it. My boyfriend got a chai latte and nachos. The latte was probably better than Starbucks! But his nachos were a little generic with just shredded cheese, beans, and salsa.
We went back today and just had hot drinks. I tried the Dirty Chai Latte, which is a regular chai latte with a shot of espresso. It was very good.
We will definitely make Muddy Boots a regular restaurant when we visit Nashville.
Had breakfast here Sunday on the way out of town after a day of hiking Saturday. Tried a blueberry and a banana pancake and they were excellent. Big, so only ate half of each. Real chunks of banana and whole blueberries throughout. Coffee was good. A friend ordered hot tea and they bring a French press to your table.
Review Source:My food was an extreme disappointment.
I had a sandwich Reverend ?? Big Damned Sandwich and it was terrible.
This was a lamb and bacon sandwich with some sauce. The bacon was hard, the lamp cut very thin was even harder and I guess the sauce was OK.
The folk singer was loud and I did not enjoy his songs or voice.
Never again.
It's unique, and the food is mercurial, leaning from just ok to pretty darn good for a small town cafe. Rarely is there anything to apologize for. They have live entertainment some evenings, often early. Prices are so-so and the soups are often pretty good.
The upsides: something for every dietary delight, and sometimes vegan (usually a few non-orthodox vegetarian items). Comfy, and the feeling that you're not eating strictly Sysco Food Services food is a delight. They may actually make a large majority of their own food, rather than buy it and re-heat it for you. This is usually a plus.
The downsides: coffee is good, but if you buy it by the beans, you'll need to put up with a cranky old coffee grinder that should be sold for its antique value and replaced by something that actually works. It has one setting, first gear, because the rest of its transmission is burnt out. Dudes: buy a new grinder. And the other downside is that the food can sometimes be Kroger Kwuality, but not often. The help is usually friendly. Muddy boots are fine.
Try the rice-vegetable cheese dish. Excellent. Also chips and salsa. This is a great place with live mustic. Very funky and fun. We looked at all the spots before settling on this. It's Santa Cruz meets the hills of Indiana. Great duet that night-- a musician couple from Nashville, TN. And a bargain.
Review Source:Muddy Boots is a gem in the village! The food is simple but delicious and well-prepared. There are many vegetarian options, too, from a hearty bean soup to a tasty grown-up grilled cheese with tomatoes and caramelized onions. Prices are fantastic - we had an appetizer, two entrees, and a dessert for less than $30! Hard to beat in a touristy area like Nashville.
On many nights, Muddy Boots has live music. We were lucky enough to be there on a night when a great local cover band played. The crowd was lively and talkative - we made many friends that night!
Don't skip out on the delicious desserts. They're made from scratch in the kitchen upstairs. On the night we were there, dessert choices included cheesecake, peach crumble, and fresh raspberry tarts. We had a tart with vanilla ice cream - incredible!
I think for Nashville this is probably a great little hideaway. Â I loved the atmosphere, the live music, and the service but the food fell a little bit short for me. Â
We came to Nashville on the 4th for a day of wandering and shopping. Â I was starving, so we stopped in here because it looked cute (really cool statue with license plates outside the restaurant). Â
Granted, part of my aversion is that I am used to the culinary bliss of Bloomington. Â We ordered chips and salsa and got tostitos and cold salsa from a jar. Â Okay, not worth $3.99 but whatever. Â
Then we split a spinach salad that had spinach, almonds, and "seasonal fruit" with a blueberry vinagarette. Â I suppose I was expecting more than 4 slices of green apple as the seasonal fruit and something along the lines of fancy almonds, not just a few slivers. Â The dressing was good. Â
The best part of our meal, though, was the salmon burger. Â This was actually delicious and probably saved our meal. Â I think it was actually made in house, which I found surprising. Â It was big enough to split between two hungry people, too. Â
For dessert, we split a large peanut butter cookie. Â I'm not a huge pb cookie fan, but appeased Dave. Â I would like to try their peanut butter or rhubarb pie, as both looked amazing. Â
In the end, if I go back to Nashville I would give this place another try because it seemed the least touristy of some of the other places downtown, but I would hesitate to recommend it to someone else without going back first myself.
The lavender lemonade was amazing, however I went for breakfast and it fell short. Â Must not be much of a breakfast joint. Â However, I went around brunch hour and the folks getting the lunch entrees looked very pleased and the plates of food looked tons better than mine! Â I'll be back for lunch to give it another try.
Review Source:Love this place. Â Great coffee, great food. Â They provide entertainment some nights. Â It is one of the few places I saw that they have gluten free options. Â As others mentioned it is a bit hippy dippy but you will just love it. Â They use fair trade coffees are are very conscience of the food they serve. Â A gem in this small town.
Review Source:We went here with our kids. I walked in and asked if they had a high chair and the teenager with the hair net who was working told me to check the back (which I did with no luck). When I got back to the front another lady was seating my husband and grabbed a high chair which were right in the front.  The lady who sat us was very nice and recommended the special which was a pasta with vegetables. I ordered the special.  My husband and kids had burritos. Although the en tree's  were good, I felt the portions were small for the money. I had small salad. I asked the server which dressing she would recommend and she suggested the raspberry vinaigrette. It was not so good. It tasted like straight vinegar with no berry or sweetness to it. The lettuce was fresh. The burritos did not come with anything and they were around eight dollars. We did not try the desserts or coffees which looked very good. I would not go back again for dinner but I would go in and try some coffee and dessert.
Review Source:Muddy Boots is my favorite breakfast place in Nashville. Everything is fresh, delicious and vegetarian-friendly. They even have my beloved vanilla soy milk for making the best chai in town. I think the fact that they haven't bent over backwards to cater to tourists is a big reason why I like them so much. This place has no pretense, and I dig that. Come in, pull up a mismatched chair, and get down on a breakfast burrito or a bagel with lox. Oh, and a lavender lemonade. I wish they offered those in five-gallon bucket size.
Review Source:This is the second time that I have been to Muddy Boots and I was disappointed. Â I was in town with my family and a couple of frinds. Â Since it was close to lunch time and we were cold we thought we would check Muddy Boots out for some hot chocolate and coffee.
I was surprised to see that the restaurant was mostly empty when we walked in. Â We found a table for the six of us, sat ourselves and waited for someone to come over. Â That was the first sign of trouble. Â We waited way too long for someone to come over. Â When we finally placed our order for 2 coffees, 4 hot chocolates and 6 cookies (the cookies were selfserve). we were more then ready for the drinks.
It was another 10-15 minutes for the the drinks to come out, but then only half of them came. Â We had to wait another 15-20 minutes for the rest of the drinks. Â We were not in a hurry, so we were not overly upset, and the waitress was nice, but it was rediculus.
Then when the other drinks came out they were far from hot!
I also noticed that the rest of the customers were experiancing the same problems.
In addition, they only have one bathroom, and the entire time we were there people were waiting in line for the restroom.
If in Nashville, I recomend going to another place for food and drink.
 I wish that we had just gone to the Hobnob instead. Â
I guess it is still an ok alternative to traditional restaurants in town.
We actually ate there twice during our stay in Nashville. Â The first was Sunday afternoon... one of the few places open so went there by default. Â Pleasant surprise! Â I had the grilled cheese with tomato and onion! Â Yum! Â I was told that the biscuits and gravy was excellent as well.
Later in the week I was looking for a place in town I could have more than one choice to eat... I'm a vegetarian and not a lot of veggie options in Nashville. Â The hummus wrap was excellent and the muddy bean soup & corn bread out of this world.
The service was decent, the food was fast, and there are board games in the back to pass a lazy day. Â I was also told the brownie/mint chocolate chip ice cream sandwhich was a great afternoon treat!
A Hippy Haven in downtown Nashville.
They serve Lavender Lemonade here, so they're not just hippys they're hip.
Organic menu, not your average hoosier fair, funky laid back vibe. Regular open mike & board game nights on the calendar. Antique soda fountain counter w/stools, and a hodgepodge of booths & tables fill the dining room.
We had Valentines dinner here, and they went out of their way to make it special & sweet, but the best part was listening, ok eavesdropping on the large group of locals talking local gossip & politics, a very entertaining group of Artist, & Teacher left wingers.
