B McNeel’s

We went for a birthday brunch and thoroughly enjoyed it. They have the best Eggs Benedict, french toast, and coconut shrimp! Great for family gatherings since everyone can eat what they like.

I don’t know how I haven’t heard about this place before now! Found this place on Unilocal about a week ago and tried it with friends visiting from California. Food was really good and hardly anyone there (1pm weekday). The waitress told us that their busy time is from 11:30 — 12:30. If you want good quality Southern food and want to enjoy it in a nice ambiance give B McNeel’s a try!

Sunday brunch is a $ 15 Shoneys buffet, with a smaller selection. I can’t believe this was the same place I read about online! They only do a buffet for brunch, which is fine if it’s a good buffet. Everything was cold and bland. The only fresh fruit they had was strawberries and cantaloupe. The biscuits and gravy were pre made in the buffet pan so they were soggy from sitting. Who does that? Why not let us make the biscuits and gravy on our plate? The bacon was so burnt it sounded like my sister was eating rocks. The sausage was burnt as well. I wish I was exaggerating! Everyone at my table ate only a few bites of their food. My sister just had coffee after taking a peek at the buffet beforehand and the coffee looked like tea because it was so weak. Skip this place for brunch unless you love crappy food.

Doesn’t really matter what the food is like if you can’t even get waited on.
Once our order was finally taken, food came quick but we then couldn’t get a server to bring pepper vinegar for the (bitter) collards and the black-​eyed peas. Finally got to request it but they don’t have it!
Cuke salad was excellent, so was pot roast, deviled eggs, and the fruit was fresh. Portions are extremely generous.
But it only matters if you can get waited on.

My boyfriend and I just ate at this restaurant. It wasn’t terrible but I don’t believe it deserves an honorable mention. The food was OK, nothing spectacular but not horrible. The service was the reason for 2 stars versus 3. The staff isn’t the friendliest, or at least to us they weren’t. We saw the waiter when he took our drink orders and when he returned with the check and asked us if we’d like a beverage to go… mind you we were still eating at this point. We felt a little rushed after that. One last thing I’ll add is if you do not eat pork, you may want to consider another location for brunch. I eat pork but my bf doesn’t. Most of the meats to choose from were pork, with the exception of the shrimp (which was pretty tasty). Most of the green vegetables were prepared with pork as well. Needless to say, I ate way more than he did which is usually not the case. We’ll likely not return for another meal. Hope this helps.

Great service and wonderful brunch buffet on Sunday. I suggest to make a reservation since I noticed a wait formed as the morning progressed. They serve both breakfast and lunch on the brunch buffet. Nice atmosphere being upscale and trendy without being pretentious. This is one of the best brunches in Murfreesboro.

We’ve gone a few times for sunday brunch. The first time was AMAZING! True southern food to me. Second time, we went on a «holiday.» Even with reservations, we waited awhile and the service was super slow. The food is mostly good. Servers are friendly. Still our go-​to for something special in the ‘boro. I recommend making reservations on sunday! Small little place with nice old southern ambiance. Try it at least once!

We rented a room for a Saturday lunch with 21 people. This was our first time at B. McNeel’s. We loved the ambiance and décor. The appetizers were decent, but nothing great. Our main courses (salad, steaks, shrimp & grits, chicken) was excellent. What was lacking was service. The two guys who served seemed like they tried, but there weren’t enough servers. When we got there we found debris all over the floor and chairs from the night before. And the appetizers were supposed to be out at noon, but it was closer to 12:30 when they brought them all out. We complained, and they took care of it. No one cleared our plates when we were finished and waiting on dessert, so we put them on the appetizer table ourselves, and one of our guests grabbed the tea and water pitchers to refill glasses while our two servers passed out dessert. They gave us a discount for the bad service, but we would have rather had good service and paid for it. Might go there for lunch, maybe they handle that better, but would not return with a catered event. It’s a shame, since the ambiance and food are so good. One more server probably would’ve done it!

We had a class party here for our 40^th high school reunion last weekend. Every single thing was wonderful: the food, the location, the ambiance (we had the entire upstairs) and the staff. We could not have chosen a better place. Thanks to all the staff for making our event so great!

Had lunch there today and the food was excellent, service was quick, and staff was friendly! We will be back

the sunday brunch is good ~however you can never get the eggs benedict french toast etc. advertised as part of the brunch due to the kitchen shutting down early every sunday

We have been trying to come here for yrs. finally got out of bed early enough to do Sunday brunch. OMG!!! The food was great. The only reason I’m not giving a fifth star is they did not have enough servers for the number of people. The brunch is a buffet which I didn’t expect. The table had several items I also didn’t expect. (Salmon patties, beef stroganoff, sliced carrots) all delicious. I’m writing this before I’ve seen the bill but I’m thinking it will be worth every penny.
A must try is the French toast!!!
My waitress just brought the check and we will return. Cheaper than copper kettle but on the same level of excellence.

Awesome lunch menu and variety every day of the week. Just get there early lunch or late lunch if you want a seat. If you go at the peek around 12, it’s flooded with the elderly ordering mashed potatoes.

How did I not know about this place? It’s fantastic! I’m almost hesitant to write a review because this place is by far the best kept secret in Murfreesboro. Since our favorite lunch spot closed recently, we’ve been searching for a new place. We found it!
The beef stroganoff is incredible, and the chicken with dressing is delicious! Great service, awesome atmosphere (exposed brick walls, antique player piano, and giant windows!), and super inexpensive! Can’t beat it. We are the new regulars!

Great Sunday Buffett. They also gave the option to have an order of eggs Benedict freshly made. Yum!!! Dessert options were great. The caramel pie was amazing!!!

Before you judge b mcneals you must take all things into context… It’s a meat and three in Murfreesboro. Most of my reviews start with something like this… However, this is a classy place with a killer vibe and good southern food just off the square.
Good location
Sexy vibe
Good food
Put all that in the boro and you have a winner.

Great Southern Food. The price was very reasonable.

I came for B McNeel’s Sunday Brunch Buffet a few weeks back and it was all right. Not the best brunch I’ve ever had, but not the worst! Grits, biscuits (jam, no gravy!), potatoes, breakfast meats of many varieties, potatoes, fruits, salad, scrambled eggs… pretty standard. Nothing really stood out as amazing or terrible. The dessert was delicious, but reallllllllly sweet (and I love sweet). The service was mildly attentive, not fantastic, to our party of 6 people (Coffee cups were empty before refills were given, etc.)
No major raves, no major complaints. Pretty cute place.

I love getting lunch here. Its quick, its easy, and its real good. Plenty of value for your dollar as well.

My wife and I had our first date here and we started with some crazy martini’s. They were excellent. Our app was whole okra deep fried in a nice spicy batter. I can’t remember what our entrees were but they were very good as well. The interior is really cool and most of the kitchen is exposed so that patrons can see the food being made. Very cool place!
