Baby's totally has a Barbie vibe! It's pink, it's kitschy, it's got boozy milkshakes. It also has a nice outdoor patio and a playground--so it is family friendly too. While the food was just okay (impossible burger for vegetarians) it is definitely the friendly customer service and the ambiance of the place that should make you want to stop by. I really dug the white chocolate peanut butter + chocolate shake (the folks working the counter let me do 1/2 and 1/2 so I would not have FOMO on flavor choices). read more

Self order and pay, food is delivered to your table. Choose from salads, burgers, chicken, and sides. My double cheeseburger was two thin meat patties and was very dry. The best food report from our 8 ladies was the chicken sandwich was very good. Parking beside building. Unisex restrooms. read more

Been here two times, both times I had the spicy burger(not the real name) but fantastic nonetheless. Service was average and the restaurant has outdoor seating which is nice on a hot summer night, went during the summer and winter both inside and out are fun. Had a cookie good . read more

Great food, great service, and a fun environment for my toddler. We enjoyed the experience!

Baby's has been a true fav since they opened for several reasons. First, they're *pup friendly* on their patio/outdoor space. They have both covered and uncovered outdoor seating. This is great for pet seating on even a not-so-sunny day. They also provide water bowls for our fur friends. Next up, they have a pretty good-sized menu with *plant-based* and *vegan* options. For the food? Flavorful, fresh, and can be easily customized. The staff is always friendly and usually, there isn't a wait. I have, however, run into private events on weekends that required prior tickets so make sure to check in on their social channels or give them a call to ensure you can get in before you make the drive over. It's also just a cute location with neon signs, quirky interiors, and fun for kids, too. read more

So good and such a colorful uplifting space. The food was really good, especially the line up of sauces available. My mom's chicken sandwich was a little overcooked, but still good nonetheless. Great area for groups and they have such a nice patio as well:) read more

Before pregnancy my boyfriend and I used to come here, while pregnant we also came here and now after having our little one, you best to believe we have visited here with him! Baby's has become a favorite of my family! We are vegetarians and they have options for us here and it is rather delicious! I have never had a bad experience here at all. The inside is super fun and colorful. The bathrooms are always clean when I come here as well. Their outside seating is nice as well, get to eat your food while enjoying the nice weather. The service here is like Culver's. You go order at the counter and then they give you a number and bring your food out to your table. One of my favorite things on their menu is their chocolate shake...this is the main reason I fell in love with Baby's read more

Great atmosphere, especially for sitting outside. The appetizers and burgers were amazing. Waitress was super attentive but not over bearing. Definitely worth a trip downtown. read more

I didn't like the food here and won't return. We had a Fox 59 gift certificate so thankfully we didn't pay full price. These are nowhere near a real smashburger. Tasted like a preformed frozen burger. Pretzel bun was stale and lackluster. Fries were meh, not worth eating. The only thing I liked was the fried Cheese Curds, they were edible. Save your $$ and go to a real burger joint. The inside was somewhat cute, it was all counter service but they did bring out the food to you. Serve yourself silverware and drinks. Blah read more

This has to be one of the cleanest restaurants I've ever been in (see photos) Felt like $10 burger was a bit on the small side, and does not come with chips fries or pickle. It was tasty . The staff was very friendly. Again the place sparkled. read more

I was excited to try Baby's after seeing they had a few vegan options on the menu. They were unfortunately out of the Impossible Burger, but I opted for my second choice of the vegan chicken tenders. I'm not sure what these are made of, but they were amazing. No reheated Gardein tenders here, these are hand breaded with some sort of fabulous seasoning and fried to perfection. And they came sitting on top of a huge portion of fries. They had a pretty big cocktail list, and they have milkshakes that you can have straight up or make boozy. AND they have some non-dairy options for those too. I also though their prices were really reasonable, especially for a restaurant downtown. I spent under $40 for 2 entrees, 2 adult beverages + tip. They have a drag brunch on the second Sunday of every month, and I can't wait to try it. read more

I've eaten burgers all over the country and the burgers here stack up with the best. I think it stacks up to the Au Cheval. That statement from me is the equivalent of saying it's unbelievable. The fries are great and you can get several dipping sauces. Their Mac n cheese is off the chain. Great drinks here too. I work with people from all over the world and when they are in town it's surprising how many of them just want a good burger. I always bring them here. read more

I wish I could give this restaurant a glowing review, because it seems like everyone else has an awesome experience here. I was excited to see there were reservations AND a fun outside play spot for kids. I thought everything was going great after I called and make a reservation, until we arrived at the restaurant. Once we got there, I was informed that reservations for outside are NOT taken, regardless of what the employee I spoke with earlier in the day told me and that "it would probably be a while to get a table outside since everyone just sat down". Disappointing, but we were optimistic and decided to continue with our meal. We were sat at a 6 person table and an additional chair was brought over because the empty 8 person table next to us was being held for someone. I had to return to the hostess stand to get kids menus and crayons myself. Ordered our drinks and an appetizer - pretty straightforward process and we got them relatively soon after. About the 20 minute mark, our waitress was back to take our order, and that was the last real interaction we had with any staff until our in-restaurant time hit an hour and I went to the bar to inquire about our order. After a short wait, we were informed that "our order would be next up in the kitchen for prep", and at that point I decided it wasn't worth waiting any longer. I really wish I could've given this place an objective review that included the entire experience, but unfortunately for me and my family, the experience ended with an unfulfilling 60 minute wait aside from coke products that weren't ever refilled and pretzel bites. read more

INCREDIBLY accommodating for celiac disease. I put in order through Uber Eats and they care they put into ensuring the food was safe for me was evident. I haven't had French fries in 2 years and because they have a separate fryer I was able to eat them and they were DELICIOUS. This place is incredible. read more

This is a trendy restaurant with an old school dinner type feel. There is some free street parking available here, but they also have a huge private lot. The place has a kind of bright pink theme and have a cool "Grease" kind of vibe. You know, the movie with John Travolta and Oliva Newton John. They have a full bar area that you can sit at, as well as a decent sized dining area, a huge enclosed patio and an outdoor patio area. The enclosed patio has heaters and was very warm on a cold day. That is where I ate. The outdoor patio has a fire pit and a small play structure/ art thing. There is not a lot of seating out there. I guess they took some of it out for the winter. The staff there is friendly and I was greeted and seated right away. You can get your order to go or dine in. The restaurant has two entrances/exits. One in the front that leads to the main dinning area and one that goes through the patio area and leads to the restaurant's counter. The menu has burgers, fish sandwiches, tenderloins. fried chicken, salads, macaroni and cheese and fries. They have a few signature burgers, but the majority are build your own from their many toppings and sauces. I got the build your own double patty burger with bacon, lettuce, tomato, caramelized onions, and sassy sauce. I topped my meal with a side of fries. My meal was ready in about 5 minutes and was hot and fresh. It was pretty good and my burger was packed, which of course made it a bit messy. It was a lot of food. I was stuffed by the time I was done. I will warn you that the place is a bit on the pricey side. I paid about $22 for my meal. Other than the price. I really enjoyed my meal. This is a cute local restaurant that has a lot of personality. I recommend checking this place out. read more

Baby's Drag Brunch! Second Sunday's of the month is my new place of worship! Grab up tickets when they come available ($5ea) and it gets you in! They offer a $25 prefixed menu that's three courses (app, entree and dessert). We loved everything and the cocktails are so delicious! The show was amazing! Bring all your $1 bills and tip the amazing talented performers. They really know how to put on a show! Note the show was 3 acts so be sure to bring enough dollars! This was the longest brunch drag show I've been to and we ran out of dollars. Each month they offer something different so you could go every month! We had loaded fries as our app, chicken and waffles and a deliciously huge cookie for dessert. Picture of the chicken and waffles. read more

This is the type of place that puts a smile on your face the minute you walk through the door. The decor is bright and retro cheerful. We started with drinks: white peppermint milkshake spiked (of course) and the Bend and Snap. The milkshake was super cute and tasted divine. The Bend and Snap was sweet and fruity. Next up the food; I had the strut burger minus the bacon. It's a smash burger that is F A N T A S T I C. It's a seasoned juicy beef patty x2 with crispy edges which is topped with smoked Gouda, mango chutney and a Mayo type sauce. Oh and sweet pickles round out the perfect bite. I would order this again in a heartbeat. We also had the fried buffalo chicken sandwich, no cheese but add jalapeño. Let me tell you...this was a healthy chicken patty which was made of chicken breast meat. Moist, tender and appropriately swimming in hot sauce..thank you BABY. We both opted for fries which are seasoned and some what remind me of Rally's fries. The cutest part was each entree was served on a pink tray. read more

in short.. this place is pretty great. if you're expecting great service, don't, since baby's seems to have the common issue of "not enough staff." after being seated we waited 15 minutes before anyone came over for even a drink order.. and the restaurant was dead. these things happen, it is what it is, but it's not like we were lost in a sea of people. okayokay anyway -- about the food. i got the beer and shot combo for $8 (nice deal, honestly) as well as an impossible burger and vegan talbott fries, plus split the fried shrooms. it all went down easyyy. the vegan version of the fries could have benefited from something other than those crappy mccormick bac'n bits, but everything about them was great. i appreciated that whatever pickled jalapenos they use were actually spicy, if a little TOO plentiful to boot. the mushrooms were what you'd expect, i think: basically, if you like mushrooms, go for it. if you don't, they're still sort of like gelatinous dirt. but i like that.. for some reason. they were fried perfectly, so that helps. more vegan options would be awesome here, but i'll take what i can get. the whole aesthetic of the place is fantastic -- and they have a pretty good-sized menu with a lot of drinks -- but like i said, they're plagued by having a short staff. despite that though, when they were able to stop by our table, they were incredibly helpful and nice. ah, hell with it. 5/5. read more

Good, good, and gooder! Is that even the word??...... "Gooder?" The waitstaff was super nice and always checked on us. I loved the decor and vibey atmosphere. We came super early in the day, so it was not crowded and pretty pieceful. The menu wasn't overwhelming but ALLL of the options sounded good, so I had a hard time choosing just one! I was pleasantly surprised at how delicious the food was! I ordered a double patty with cheese, traditional toppings with sliced mushrooms. I also had two sides of sauce: Sunday sauce (ranch, honey mustard, and bbq) and Sassy Sauce ( tangy, southwestern sauce). The bun was buttery delicious and it helped keep all of the goodness together. Since I have a baby on the way, I enjoyed the mocktail called Strawbery Fizz. Baby's is my favorite restaurant to enjoy hamburgers and cant wait to try out the rest of their menu! Happy eating! read more

The service was amazing and the server was on top of everything. I loved the overall ambiance of the location. The colors made it fun and a happy place to eat. The eating area outside was also very pleasant. The food was amazing flavor wise. The only thing that I did not like was everything was separate. Not like "get a burger, the fries come with it". So if you want a meal, be sure to order fries at the time you order your burger. Overall it was a good experience! read more

Cute little place on Talbot St. they have a dedicated parking lot across from the restaurant but it only holds about 10 cars. There looked to be free street parking all around as well. You order at the counter and they bring your food out to you via a number card. The service was extremely quick. We barely waited 5 minutes for everything. My burger was pretty good. It wasn't exactly hot but it was pretty tasty. The garlic aioli was really flavorful. We tried the basic seasoned fries. The were reminiscent of McDonald's fries with seasoning. One of the loaded fry options might have been a better choice. They had soft serve in quite a few flavors including a vegan option and they serve alcohol. We sat outside in their covered patio and the breeze was nice. It was very clean. All the tables were spotless. I would definitely go back to try a dessert or another burger. read more

This place is awesome and I finally got the chance to check out a drag brunch! It was such a good time, it's a ticketed event once a month on sundays. The drag show was amazing, very well done and full of talent, I loved the songs and all of the beautiful costumes! Being able to check out a brunch menu is cool as well, we started with loaded fries that had some delicious bacon on top. The mail course was a chicken and waffle sandwich that was to die for, savory and sweet the perfect combo! It even came with warm syrup an awesome touch. I had a great cocktail called by Felicia that was refreshing and summary and we shared a pitcher of purple is the new pink, and it had butterfly pea blossom gin in it, so tasty. All around great experience with amazing service! Can't wait to go back and check them out again read more

I have only been to Baby's for their Drag Show Brunch. I will most likely visit again to give a another review. I had never been to a Drag show before so I though Baby's was a great place to start! Here are things I learned: Baby's Drag Brunch is the second Sunday of the month. Tickets go on sale online the fourth Sunday of the previous month. You buy a $5 ticket ($7 with taxes) online and pay for your meal there. It may or may not be brunch. Meaning, that one month I saw a friend post that she had waffles are their meal at the drag show. When I went we had Fried chicken sandwich meals. So the meal changes monthly Meal is $25. The first plate is a shared appetizer for the table. Main course and dessert are not shared. Drinks are a separate charge. There are vegan and gluten free options. Bring dollar bills for tips! I had a lot of fun with my friends. There were a variety of performers and they walked around so you could appreciate their performance up close! read more

Stopped in for an impromptu Mother's Day brunch with my daughter and granddaughter. We'd never heard of Baby's but was pleasantly surprised to find it so close to where I grew up. Food was hot and fresh. The Swiss burger is amazing. Luca was our server and he did amazing! He was super welcoming and answered all of our questions. My daughter loved her mimosa. read more

Came to Baby's to explore their gluten free options since I am Celiac. I spent quite a bit of time talking with Kaiden the manager. He was very knowledgeable about the menu and assured me my food would be handled safely. The food was amazing but Kaiden's service made the experience super memorable. Amazing atmosphere and staff, will be back very soon read more

I'm always on the lookout for a good burger and Baby's did not disappoint. I'm obsessed with the Strut burger. Holy cow. So, so, so good. That's the one I recommend for everyone to try on their first visit because the smoked Gouda and mango chutney is such an interesting combo but damn I love it! Also, they have boozy shakes (; Burger my brother made Fried chicken sandwich Strut burger Curious flavor Talbott street fries read more

This place has really high reviews but I am disappointed personally. The service was great, the diner was cute and pink. However the pricing for a burger, fries and a side salad ended up being $26. The burger wasn't even real meat, just a frozen patty. I will not be returning. read more

When in Indianapolis, I'm always on the lookout for reasonably priced, reasonably fast and really great food options for meetings with coworkers, etc. Baby's may become a go-to option and is within a quick drive of downtown for those in a hurry. My coworker ordered the impossible burger and a side salad. I won't judge her. But she said it was great. I ordered the good stuff - a double burger and onion rings. My burger was fantastic, and the onion rings were fantastic. I ordered a large rings, and honestly am not sure that's what I got - they were good, I ate them fast, and wanted more. It wasn't too much for one person. The space is nice - offering both inside and outside (covered patio) dining - in a garage door format. It can get noisy outside with the echo, especially if it's raining. They recently renovated and it looks great - however it's now counter service which I don't prefer. I liked having servers come to the table. Now you order, take a number, and they deliver your food when it's ready. Better than fast food, but I really preferred having the option to sit down, decide what i want to order, and have traditional service. That's a personal preference, and it isn't impacting my decision to eat there again, but I like what I like. They do offer a variety of milkshakes, including 'boozy shakes' which would likely interest me after 5:00, but I didn't try them. As you can see, I ate healthy (DWS) so it was H20 to balance the onion rings. I'll return! read more

Completely different vibe than last time with sit down service, shades on the outdoor patio and no blaring music made for a nice setting for lunch. Dud waiter who hardly spoke, threw straws at the table, and seemed put out when we asked a question. Served a burger with a very long, light colored, semi curly hair that I pulled off before trying to eat. Bonus on the cruelty free options that don't involve killing animals or subjecting them to inhumane treatment for milk or eggs. read more

We loved the outdoor space at Baby's! We actually drove to three different restaurants this night looking for outdoor seating (because it was November but was still in the 50s!) but they were all closed for the season. Thankfully we remembered Baby's, made a quick call and they verified their outdoor seating is always open. So we came for a quick meal. We had burgers and fries and a strawberry shake. We also tried a cocktail. Everything was good. The only thing I wasn't crazy about was the ketchup, too sweet for me. We were lucky enough to visit when they had live music. So we caught the very end of the singer's set. It was a really nice touch. The staff were very friendly and helped us navigate the menu. read more

The burger options are customizable, making it easy for everyone in a group to find what they like. Their smashed burgers are good. Few places offer a smashed Impossible burger, and they do it well here. It was seasoned well too. They have a great indoor and outdoor patio space with tables for groups of all sizes. The employees were friendly and there was plenty of parking. read more

Beware of Baby's!!! I went to Baby's because I had two Fox59 Gift Certificates to use. Just to walk in and see a sign on the door that says "We are currently not accepting Fox 59 gift certificates." Fine. I was willing to pay full price so I sat down. I asked the waiter what happened. They said "A lot of people have been bringing in fraudulent gift certificates"... (1) this doesn't make sense -- the QR codes literally scan to an online database ... (2) basically every other restaurant in Indy has figured it out, so why can't Baby's??? I tried to look past it and ordered some food. Got a Boozy Milkshake... which by the way is a milkshake with a $6 shooter that you pour into the milkshake yourself. I got excited because it said the Saturday happy hour special was 1/2 price milkshakes!!! I pointed it out to the server to make sure we would get the deal. He said Yes! And then 5 minutes later he came back and said it doesn't count for the happy hour deal... because it's alcohol??!?!?! Only the regular milkshakes count apparently. Keep in mind, this is a regular milkshake with a shooter on the side. To sum it up, these are my takeaways- (1) if you are in the mood to feel scammed, go to Baby's! (2) If you have a Fox59 Gift Certificate... Baby's was unable to tell me when they would take them again. So you might be losing money!!!! FYI - Plan Accordingly (3) This was a decent burger! If I wasn't so irate about them refusing to take a gift certificate that they authorized and refusing to fulfill an advertised happy hour deal, I would have liked my experience. That's too bad. read more

Hadn't been here in a year and I'm not sure what's happened but this place has really gone down hill. It's now a seat-yourself, order-at-the-counter, take-number concept, which in and of itself is fine. But we ended up paying the same prices for next to no service. The cocktails are now all entirely batched and not good at all, just tasted like sugar and some mixers. This is especially disappointing as we really loved the cocktails before. Our burgers were burn to a crisp and the fries were mostly good, but very greasy soggy at the end. I am sad the Baby's I enjoyed so much has slipped so much :( read more
