Mellow Mushroom

My husband and I had a random night to go on a date. Looking for something different, and wanting a good selection of beers, a quick search online brought us to Mellow Mushroom in Murfreesboro. We went not knowing what to expect and left planning to go back soon. First off, the staff was great. Friendly and helpful. Pricing was right on target as other pizza places, but the toppings were fresher, and you could watch them actually toss the dough as they made the pizzas. I left declaring it the best pizza I'd ever had. On top of it, there were a few families there, but also other couples on dates. The atmosphere made it possible for both to be harmonious! They even have a patio area should you want to have your meal enjoying the weather. The only con of the place was we'd have probably passed it right by had our GPS not told us it was there. Tucked behind a Taco Bell, its fairly hidden, and you have to know its there. Personally, I highly recommend it, and I will definitely be going back! Pros: family friendly, date friendly, huge beer selection, pizza Cons: a little hidden more

The pizza here is one of the best pizzas in Mboro. The crust has a lot of taste and a good texture, and the sauce is robust. The bread pretzels are a great appetizer. Although their wings are average at best, I considered this a trade-off for the better options on the menu. Their toppings are offered in a wide variety of choices, and it's nice that they have a full bar. Mellow Mushroom offers a ton of beer choices on tap, and the beer sampler offers you 5 small beers to try. I enjoyed that since I couldn't narrow it down to one. THe prices are more than the average pizza place, but the food is better overall. There was a family of kids when I was there, and I didn't appreciate the crying baby. I would think that this should be more of an adult and college kid hangout than a family place. But it's not like the staff can tell babies not to show up... Pros: pizza, full bar, huge beer selection, bread pretzels Cons: families trying to turn it into Chuck E Cheese, not so great wings. more
