The Menu
Every burger at Jack Brown's starts with a 100% American Wagyu patty from Snake River Farms, a family-owned ranching and beef company in Boise, Idaho. The kitchen keeps the burgers simple: the menu asks guests not to request lettuce and tomato, and the creativity goes into the toppings instead. Any burger can be made a double for $4.49 more.

Beer Selection & the Notch Club
Beer is half the name. Jack Brown's keeps a constantly rotating lineup of craft beers on tap, and each location runs its own taps, so the Murfreesboro list is different from the ones in Green Hills or Clarksville. The restaurant does not publish its current tap list online. Ask the bartender or check the Murfreesboro location's social media for what's pouring.
The chain's beer program is the Notch Club. Guests ask for a Notcher list, work through 100 different beers, and join the "Notchers" once they hit 100. A small deposit may apply to start a Notch Card, depending on the location. Each location also hosts its own Notch Club events, from tap takeovers to Notcher-only celebrations. "Jack Jumping" adds a patch for each Jack Brown's location a member visits.
