Scotty’s Brewhouse

I had high hopes for this place. I heard the food was good. It’s been 40 minutes and we still haven’t received our food. We had to remind the waiter that we hadn’t received our beverages.

This Scotty’s is a little smaller than other locations I’ve visited, but overall the food quality is about the same. I think the staff is still trying to get things together, but I’ve noticed improvement each time I’ve visited.
Scotty’s tries to keep things fresh with new menu items which is good, but I usually stick with favorites like fried pickles, waffle fries, and their spicy food offerings.
The parking at this location is always packed because apparently Brownsburg zoning doesn’t allow for enough parking. There are several businesses in this strip center and it just seems like poor planning.
Scotty’s on 96^th and Downtown Indy are 5 stars but this location is just 4. Still worth a visit for sure!

Wings on Wednesday is where it’s at! Seriously, these folks make some of the best wings I have ever had. They’re crispy and pretty big, plus the sauce choices are delicious! Looking for something spicy? Try anything with «mo’fo» in the title. You won’t be disappointed.

Love the food hate the wait. Two Sundays in a row we have tried to dine here. 25 min for a salad? And the chicken is cold? Nice grilled cheese but too long

11÷10÷15− edit— had the best dining experience to date here. Amazing service experience with Derek; for sure, his service alone merits 5 stars. The food was on-​point also– the freshest greens you will find in Brownsburg.
This is my local go-​to. Impossible to pick much better in Brownsburg for a good fresh green salad (no iceberg, thankfully) on the go. The added chicken is typically delicious too. Sometimes the wait is a bit long for pickup, but the food makes it worth it.

I am a little disappointed in my Scotty’s experience. It was my first time there too. My husband called to see if they were still offering the kids eat free night. The lady’s on the phone said yes. That was it… did not mention that they offer call ahead seating. Our wait was 25 minutes.
Our food took 25 minutes to get there. It was almost cold. Kids were hungry so I did not send it back. My husband loved his burger. My sandwich (turkey avocado) was a little soggy. Kids did not get a treat from the treasure chest. Not sure I will be back.

The best thing on the menu was the totchos, basically tater tots loaded with bacon sour cream red onions tomatoes and jalapenos. Something I would recommend getting if you do decide to go here. I think also having the same type of appetizer with the waffle fries might be a good idea as well. From there, everything started to go downhill. First I found out that they’re breaded tenderloin is Not made in the restaurant. After asking the waiter, I found out that is just a factory breaded pork pattie. For a restaurant that prides itself in being «Indiana» I would expect nothing less than a real pork tenderloin. Also, I am sick and tired of restaurants using starch coated french fries. If I wanted those, I’d go to Burger King. What happened to good old fashioned french fries without some sort of starchy coating on them. They are a huge turn off. We ordered what we thought was a Juicy Lucy, apparently there’s is a difference between the Juicy Lucy and the regular Lucy. Not only is this confusing, but it created an issue between us and our server. After getting the managers attention the restaurant never really did anything to rectify the problem. The burgers themselves, so called «premium chuck» were flavorless and bland. I would have expected them to at least use salt and pepper prior to cooking them. For being cooked on a flattop I was also missing the seared edges. Overall this did not meet my expectations.

I have been to Scotty’s multiple times. The food is always cooked perfectly and is delicious. They have a great variety of beverages. However, the service is hit and miss. The last time we went the service was perfect so I will continue to go back.

We were visiting, it’s was late, we were hungry looking for something to eat.
We were greeted and promptly sat. Our server Andrew introduced himself and took real good care of us. We ordered the Lucy juicy burgers and were not disappointed at all. One of the best burgers! Caesar salad was delicious and so was the Mac n cheese…
This place exceeded our expectations!

I should start by saying that it is rare that I choose A.) American Cuisine for dining and B.) A Chain/​Franchised restaurant but Scotty’s has changed my perspective on both! Their staff is incredibly caring and helpful when it comes to food allergies. We end up dining at the Brownsburg or Downtown Scotty’s whenever we can’t quite decide what we want for dinner or need to grab a quick bite. They are always courteous and timely. There are always several options for me on their menu and options are as good as gold when food allergies are involved!

Ordered: Kokomo ghost burger with ground chuck
Ambiance: Came here for Sunday lunch and had a 25 minute wait. The place wasn’t full but there were lot of large parties since kids eat free on certain days and there wasn’t enough staff for all the tables. The place is a pretty standard sports bar with plenty of TV, tables, and booths reminiscent of a b-​dubs. Staff were certainly friendly and the ability to have them text you when you’re table is up is pretty spiffy.
Food: When I saw ghost chili pepper cheese, sriracha, and jalapenos on a burger, I admit I got a little excited and perhaps that was my down-​fall. The burger was admittedly decent. It had a solid hearty bun and the meat was medium rare like I asked but for $ 10.99 it was a little bit of a let-​down. The ghost chili cheese only had a mild heat with little flavor considering the monterey jack base, regular pepper jack would’ve had more flavor in my opinion. The sriracha was hardly noticeable which left the sliced raw jalapenos which constituted most of the heat and flavor. The fries were really unremarkable, just a filler rather than anything tasty.
Overall: My meal was fine overall but hardly worth the $ 10 – 13 price they charge for most entrees. I am intrigued by the flavors and ingredients they’re trying to bring to the table but they need better balancing or the portions need to be bigger because neither quality or value are going for them at this point. I’ll give this place another shot but there’s likely better places to go for a burger.

Ugh. Several strikes during my trip and in general.
First, beer. They have a lot on tap, but it’s mostly Thr3e Wise Men brews, which I really don’t like. So, seeing the name «Scotty’s Brewhouse» made me believe they brewed their own beer, which maybe they do, but it’s Thr3e Wise Men. Sooooo, just call it «Scotty’s Thr3e Wise Men Brewing Company» like in Broad Ripple. Perhaps I should have done the math but perhaps I was blinded by hope that there was something more than Three Wise Men being brewed in that neck of the woods. That said, it’s a good addition to the area, so I definitely applaud that. The outside patio looked nice, which I did not sit at.
Food. Their menu tries to convey higher end bar food-​falls short in many ways. It’s pretty basic. In my case, I ordered a Juicy Lucy. So, let’s stop and talk about this Minneapolis masterpiece. You take a ton of cheese, stuff it between two beef patties and grill it. Inside is a molten river of heaven between two juicy patties of hot hot meat. That description right there? I did not experience. If you have the guts to claim you can do a Juicy Lucy (I prefer the authentic spelling of Jucy Lucy, but this can create a whirlwind of arguments) then there’s no room for error. When it FINALLY arrived (after the bartender checked on our orders two different times for us) there was no cheesy center. All that waiting for nothing.
One kudos I’ll give them is having both waffle fries and tater tots as side choices. Smart since many establishments don’t have these popular potatoes. I mean, they’re all frozen, so why not?
Are you in Brownsburg and need something to eat with a cold beer? Sure, I recommend it, only because there’s nothing else…

Oh man do I love their chicken wraps. And tater tots. And waffle fries. And seemingly everything ever. Seriously though, I’m a Scotty’s fan, which makes it pretty crazy how long it took for me to get around to visiting this location on the west side.
The location is pretty nice with lots of parking, even if it’s a little more out of the way and difficult to see from the main road. Our group ended up in one of the large booths, which are somehow really comfortable and really annoying all at once. Maybe I’m just not a fan of scooting that far down the row? Anyway, our waitress approached us for drink orders quickly and did a great job getting drinks out to us in a timely fashion. In fact, she did a great job the whole time we were there and helped make it the good dining experience it was. The food was good, as always, and came out quickly. My wrap was made perfectly and the tots were awesome.
I’ll definitely be back to Scotty’s — this location or another — next time we’re looking for some legit food and beverage to fill our tummies. This location delivered on all we hope for from a Scotty’s and will definitely be considered anytime we’re looking for somewhere to eat in the Brownsburg area.

I so want to like this place. It’s conveniently located. Unfortunately, they just can’t get it right. The beer selection is very good, but food is not-​so-​great pub grub. A creative and talented chef would do wonders.
As usual, their biggest challenge is service. We tried again last night and had a server who seemed to have no interest at all in serving customers. She didn’t acknowledge our presence until we startled her out of her trance by asking for a beer list. After that, her facial expression was that she was just annoyed.
The upside was that when we went to Buffalo Wild Wings, their food and service were great.

I think your server makes or breaks your visit. Kelly was our server tonight and did a great job for me, my wife, and 2-​year old daughter. Being a Friday night can make it hectic but she kept a smile on her face the entire time.
I did try a burger off of their sneak peek menu and it was delish!!! It was the Bacon Bomb. Phenomenal!!!

Of all the places I take my large family to, nobody meets our needs as well as Scotty’s. Whether it’s the seating, kids eat free on Sunday, great food, excellent beer choices, etc… They are far and away the best option for my wife and I on the Westside. Brownsburg is only a few minutes north of where we live and the location is very accessible. I recommend the «Schuman» with their signature waffle fries. If you like beer, nobody can beat their selection.
Above all of that, it’s a locally owned company and when you eat at Scotty’s you’re supporting fellow Hoosiers.

Let me start by saying that I love the Indy northside Scotty’s on 96^th St. I’ve never had a bad experience there and its one of my favorite places.
I came here to the Brownsburg location for lunch on a Sunday afternoon. The place wasn’t that full but our food took a long time to come out. We were not in a hurry and content to sit and talk, and it still felt like it took forever. Our server tried to memorize our 4 top order instead of writing it down. He should have written it down. My wife got the wrong wrap and waffle fries instead of tots. I got tots instead of waffle fries. Several female servers were also dressed inappropriately. Is this Hooters or Scotty’s? The décor is also very dark and not inviting. They kept the dark blue walls that Hurricane had paired with the black ceiling. The atmosphere leaves much to be desired. Next time my in-​laws (Pittsboro residents) want to go out, we will probably go elsewhere. Its too bad, I was really excited to have a Scotty’s in Hendrix county.

I didn’t know that this Scotty’s location existed until my brother and sister in law suggested that we go there after my nephew’s basketball game. I have been to several other of the Scotty’s locations, but I will say this location had the best service of all of them.
The restaurant is located off of 267 in a strip mall. When we arrived around noon on a Saturday, they were not very busy. They have a good mix of booths and tables plus quite a few televisions with different games on them. We were seated promptly and our server greeted us within minutes of sitting down.
The food is typical bar food with the emphasis being on their burgers. They use locally sourced beef, but also have other options such as bison on their menu. You can choose your meat and then choose from their different types of burgers from there. If you don’t find something that you like, you can always create your own burger as well. If burgers aren’t your style, they also have a wide variety of wraps, salads, etc. to choose from. I would recommend that you try the fried pickles at least once. They are excellent. If you have kids in your group, they also have a pretty good kids menu that also has games to keep them occupied while you wait for your food. They also let the kids choose a small toy out of a treasure box before they leave.
As I said at the beginning of my review, what made this Scottys stand out was its service. Even though they weren’t busy when we first arrived, the patrons started to come in soon after and our service never changed. Our server was extremely nice and was very helpful. He even brought out a sample of their slaw when my dad was on the fence of choosing it. Our drinks never got below a halfway point when we had another waiting. He was very accommodating when we realized that we had not given him our rewards card after he had rang up our bill. Since it was my sister-in-law’s birthday month we received $ 10 off our bill, so he had to completely re-​run it. She also received a sundae, which she let the kids have. He even brought it out with the chocolate sauce on the side because one of them didn’t like chocolate sauce.
Overall it was a great experience. I would recommend going to this Scottys if you live in the Brownsburg /​Avon area.

How many times have you read «wanted to love this place, but…». Well add one more time.
Been here twice. Once shortly after opening at this location in BBurg and again 6 mons later. Both times during the mid-​dinner hours, for our family that means before 6pm, on Friday/​Sat evening. Naturally a wait was involved but nothing unexpected 15 to 20 mins. The establishment was full of after work folks and diners from the grown-​up crowd to young families.
Both seatings found spotty service from the young wait staff and the kitchen. While the beer was fine (to be expected from a brew pub), and the menu ample and diverse, meals served were long on coming, incorrect, luke-​warm or just plain not good.
But the kicker for us on both occasions was the noise level. With the multiple big screen tvs and pumped in music, this place is a sports bar. Our group gets that… and we are all sports fans and music lovers. But at 6:30 pm it was impossible to talk with the wait staff or carry on a table conversation without shouting at one another.
On the second visit the manager stopped by and we discussed both of our dining experiences. Apologies were made for the service faux pas and meal issues but there was no attempt to adjust billing on this occasion. As for the noise level, it was just reinforced that the place was a sports bar and that was the atmosphere they were shooting for.
Seems the reviews for this Scottys run either hot or cold. Count us with those who say brrrrrr… won’t be back.

Solid first impression of the new[ish] location in Brownsburg! I have frequented other locations many times over the years and was excited when I heard they built one on the west side. It is where Hurricane Wings [RIP] used to be and while they have done away with the tropical theme, it still doesn’t feel super «Scotty’s» to me yet. But I think that will come with time.
We stopped by here on a day off to grab some lunch after running some errands. While the overall restaurant wasn’t full, it was pretty busy and I think they only had a couple of servers in that day. They seemed swamped but we didn’t mind waiting. Our server was friendly and helpful and was upbeat despite the rush.
Food was pretty good, we both got wraps and waffle fries [try the waffle fries with ranch, mmmm]. It was better than some other Scotty’s visits in the past so I was pleased. I sometimes feel like certain items at Scotty’s can be overpriced. I like that they have a combo deal now, helps make everything a better value. The 7 Tidals Dips is awesome, highly recommend. Beer was also good and they had a decent deal on it.
I would likely stop in if I am in the B’Burg area again, Scotty’s doesn’t super wow me ever but they are a solid, reliable choice.
