Visiting for homecoming weekend and the bouncer swore i wasn't of age (i'm 24). on top of a $20 cover fee, they kept my ID (without scanning it or looking at it) and made me call the cops to get it back. my ID is bent. needless to say this place should be avoided at all costs. read more

I went to the bar at like 11:30 on 03/10/26 and it was all going good and I asked the dj if he was taking recommendations and he said yes. Well I requested bad bunny and he said he didn't have any and I was like okay that's fine but as I was leaving he said English music only! Like I'm sorry? I've asked for song requests before and they have never said anything like that! Oh and keep in mind he was playing Pitbull and some of the songs he put had Spanish in them so I genuinely don't know why it was necessary to add that little side comment! read more

5pm on a Saturday. Not busy at all. First round of drinks and apps came out fine. Then the service imploded. No drink re-fills. We watched customer after customer leave in disgust because no food was coming out of the kitchen. We waited 90 minutes for entrees - the last 20 minutes of which we watched our food under the heat lamps. We had no place else to go as we were out of towners - otherwise we would have left. Table next to us tried to leave but couldn't get a ticket to cash out. No one there was in charge. Just 3 servers/bartenders running the whole show. Place was a mess because no one was bussing tables. read more

The best food I have had at a Brothers location! I came Here during a college visit with my niece. I had no expectations because this is a college town. I have visited the ones in Indianapolis and they were good, but this one is great. I went at like 1:00 pm on a Thursday the food was hot and our server was super nice. The service was fast as we were on a college visit. So we ate quickly and the food was delicious. Visit but maybe during the day read more

Besides some alright appetizers, everything else sucks. Me and my friend went there and the waiter forgot what drinks we ordered. So then we ordered our food, it took like 40 minutes and then they didn't even make my friends chips he ordered. Our water we got was slightly tinted red. Our waitress also had like 2 teeth but know I dont rate the restaurant bad because of that. I got a torilla burger but i mean it just sucked. When I got the check back, I actually got heart palpitations. Just basket of fries cost 10$. Like me and my friend got three things and an appetizer and it was like 70$ which is kind of insane. I put one of those fake political 100 dollar bills under our plate too. read more

Tiana is an excellent server!!! Hot food and good drinks, definitely go to Brothers in Muncie and see her!!

Elia always greets us and serves us the best on burger night. We love the food deals and the service is great!

Terrible service. Only people in the place gods honest truth and took 54min to get all the food we ordered. Cold and I've never seen mini corn dogs so burnt and told that's just how they come out! I'm pretty sure the cooks fell asleep.. don't go don't care how hungry you are you will be disappointed... read more

Cameron is one of the bartender! He had very great conversations around the bar and came quick with his work! I really appreciate good with his work ethic!! We will definitely will come back for Cameron! read more

We just left an aggravating experience, and will never come back. I ordered a burger plain with "no tomato, lettuce, and mayo". My burger came back wrong twice, and when it eventually got to me the rest of the table was done eating. My mothers burger was also incorrect, and we regret telling them, as they made her pay for the difference. After paying MORE for three messed up orders, we will never be back. read more

I'd like to start this off on a positive note. Our server was excellent, very attentive. We walked in with our one year old son and asked for a high chair. The hostess offered to put a booster seat on a high top table chair . She didn't know they had high chairs... we cleared that up and sat. It took over an hour to get our food. Tables came in 30 minutes after us and were served and gone before we got our food. The food was very meh. I think the worst part of the experience besides the wait for the food was being seated near the kitchen. The staff in the kitchen was horribly unprofessional. They were cursing and shouting expletives, even calling customers "cheap f&$ks". We will never be back and do not recommend this place for anything other than drinks. Waste of time and money. read more

Food and service were both fantastic! We will definitely be back! Highly recommend! read more

Every time I come here the bartenders always talk amongst each other. They are more worried about the current events or what they are going to do over the weekend instead of tending to the paying customers. I would also suggest that the bartenders not eat where the beers are being poured. read more

Very impressed with our server last Tuesday night. (02/13/24). Regan was so kind and patient with us despite the place being packed out. She was attentive to our needs without being obtrusive and maintained a friendly rapport. I was using a gift card, and I did not have any cash on me, so when I paid my bill I apologized for not being able to leave a tip and said I would make it up to her next time I was in. Instead of being ticked or copping an attitude, Regan was so kind and understanding. I certainly intend to double tip her next time she's our server. Brothers, you hired a good one when you hired Regan. Keep up the good work, Regan! You helped make our evening out extra enjoyable in lots of ways!! MM read more

I come to brothers almost every Tuesday for their $2 burgers. I love food and the deals. The service today was especially good though. Our server Julie was very friendly and our food came out very quick. Tuesday is typically a busy today for them cause of the burger deal so I plan on waiting a bit for my food. This time I was pleasantly surprised on how quick, easy, and friendly the service was! I will be asking for Julie next Tuesday! read more

Very very slow service. Sat here for 2 and a half hours and our food never came in an empty restaurant.

This was the 1st time and last time I will ever go to Brothers. I ordered a patty melt and the patty was no bigger than a slider size patty. I couldn't believe how small it was. Let's just say half of my sandwich was just bread and cheese. My son ordered chicken strips and the small strips in an order does not measure up to the cost. An hour after we left he got sick. We are assuming food poisoning because after his time in the bathroom he was fine. I wish I would've taken pictures. This is a place to avoid. read more

If you black out at brothers, I only pose one question: how did you get enough drinks in a short enough period of time to black out? The service here is awful, I'd rather slide around in the grime of The Chug than wait an hour for two mugs of drinks read more

The food was good. But we waited 55 minutes before our food was brought out and there were not many people in the restaurant. I assume the kitchen staff was short? Regardless it was too long for a Friday afternoon. read more

Bartender Megan and Brooke were excellent and server Jack was great. Fun atmosphere!!

We decided to check out Brothers one evening when my step daughter and her boyfriend were in town. Right from the start, we were treated less than friendly. It took them 10 minutes to even get a server to get us drinks. Our server was nice, but she told us that because of a shift change, we wouldn't be able to order our food until the other server gets here, so we ordered drinks and apps, and made the best of it. Well, that server was there way longer than she said she would be, and when the other server got there they were out of everything we wanted to order. Never in my life had I ever heard about not ordering your food until the other server got there. Needless to say we will not be back. read more

Stopped in for late night dinner after a 14 hour work day. The hostess station put us in a corner and did not tell us it was bar service only. After a 8-10 minute wait for table service I went back to the 3 employees standing at the hostess stand and they explained the servers were being sent home for the night. Bar service only. The single bartender said it would be 20 minutes until he could wait on us. 3 professional business men looking for dinner and drinks left hungry and thirsty after 30 minutes. read more

The food here is really good. Let me say that up front. The problem is the service. If you're eating in by yourself or in a small party, don't be surprised if your server passes you up to pay more attention to a larger table. If you're ordering carry out in the evening time you will be told flat out we can't take your order right now because it's too busy. Honestly, I don't eat there as often as I would like because I am constantly being told that I can't eat there. Too busy to order carryout... lol read more

45 minutes for our entrees with literally NO ONE in the "restaurant" to find out that they were "busy" doing door dash orders. When we asked our server to just have them box our food he informed us "we were next up". So we have been sitting here and our food wasn't even on the grill yet. Don't eat here. read more

I'm giving this three stars provisionally---it could go up, it could go down. I have to admit that I have a negative predisposition to this place because it is in the monstrous building that was put in the Village that required the tearing down if the quaint brick buildings that were there before. It's unfortunate that no one ever put a good restaurant in one of those. (there was a equally hideous building across the street that was also torn down--I don't really miss that one) In any event, though the decor is pretty standard "bar" decor they get bonus points in my book for a huge neon "Duesenberg Straight 8" sign. That is a point a pride for Indiana--so good call. There are plenty of TV's here if watching sports is your thing. However, there is a weird bar that goes around the bar. It is sort of an odd space to eat or drink, because you're by default in everyone else's way. I think this "bar" is actually there to comply with the Indiana law that requires a "barrier" between the bar and the rest of the restaurant if minors are to be present. On the food. It's pretty standard bar food. I had some mac n'cheese that was pretty good, and a burger that was pretty so so, and some fried green beans that were pretty greasy. The bartenders and waitresses are all on point, though. If I just happened to be in there on a bad food day, I'll raise my review next time! read more

My best friend came in from out of town and we looking to have a fun night out. Being that it was a Monday, all the surrounding bars had closed early, so Brothers it was. As we entered, we noticed that there karaoke being sung, so I decided what the heck, and put a song in. Our server was friendly, and got our drinks in a timely manner. I got up to sing my song and directly afterword, a man comes behind me saying "Guys, you're not aloud to do any more "screamo". It's not the vibe we want here." I preceded to tell the man that we're just looking to have some fun, so what if my song had distorted guitars and some screaming. He wasnt jiving with that. He told me that he was the manager, but this man was DRUNK. A drunk manager was telling me that the karaoke song selection was limited from now on. Annoyed, I shook my head and told him I was going to put another song in. He pushed passed me, and told the karaoke guy I was not allowed to sing "screamo" The silliness of the situation ended though when a security guard asked what my deal was, threading to kick me out, stating "we can ban people for any reason. The argument with both children lasted longer than it needed to, over a karaoke song selection. We payed our tap and left. From the friends looking to go out and have a good time, thanks for ruining our night. We had a lot more money to spend. read more

made the mistake of thinking we could go to a dance club for a couple of dances. The DJ seemed rather entertained with himself but didn't care that the Dancefloor was still empty up until the time we left at 11:40 PM on a Saturday night! He actually acted offended when I requested that he play some current hits! Polite as I was, I must've scared the boy, for he summoned a scraggly little woman who claimed to be the manager. Apparently she's perfectly happy paying someone to entertain them self with their own tastes of music instead of the crowd. I hope there's other places to dance in Muncie. Ignorant unprofessional hicks. read more

Came for the drinks, stayed for the live action Scooby Doo, 5 starssssssssssssssssssss

I really can't even give this place 1star as we never got our food...came in for lunch ...got there about 1230p place nearly empty ...hostess took our drink order and brought them promptly and said waitress would be right with us...waitress showed up about 5 minutes later and struggled with fact we already had drinks, got that figured out then took our order. Waited patiently....waitress and manager checked on us within first 10 minutes from order to see if we needed anything.....waited and waited...115p....no food....no eye contact from anyone....waiting ....waiting....130p....nothing.......at this point we're "hangry"....finally....about 135p, hostess comes to table....I thought to tell us our food was just about ready....oh no...our food is 6 orders behind and will be at least another 30 minutes....sorry, they had breakfast club that morning (????)...ha! Nope, we're leaving...she brings us check for 3 soft drinks for $12....seriously? As we're leaving, the table behind us that arrived a good 20 minutes after we did is getting food....Nope....never again....horribly managed .... Made our slice of Hotbox Pizza we picked up as soon as we left taste like heaven! read more

What can I say I'm here quite often. They have a fantastic menu with a large variety, and a great staff to match. They have pool tables, dart games, the list goes on. They're a nice bar near a large college campus, so on some nights when they have great deals expect a high volume of people and slow service. All and all great place, great staff, can't wait to go back. read more

I had the pretzels good but very greasy. I ordered the good and ugly stacked patty melt and a beer. Let's just say, my appetizer came, then my sandwich, and still no beer. I finished a mediocre sandwich and she finally delivered my beer. You ask why I did flag her down. Good luck on funding her she all but disappeared. read more

Do not risk it. If they mess up your food, they will make you pay for it. You can send it back immediately and they will offer you something instead - however when you get your bill both items will be on it! You can then ask for the manager, who will then argue with you stating that you ate some fries, or you took a bite, or that they delivered what you technically ordered - and he will refuse to take off the incorrect item. Even if you explain the ingredients weren't listed correctly or completely and an item is something you cannot eat. He will still argue with you stating that he has eaten the item before and even though he believes that you didn't like the taste, that the flavor is quite delicious. Then when you are absolutely in shock and state you cannot believe that they won't even attempt to make it right, he will begin to put you down in front of your child or guests who are visiting from out of town. When you become frazzled, he will tell you that he isn't upset, so you shouldn't be. When you attempt to tell him that he is in a place of power so of course he isn't raising his voice he will storm off for a few minutes. Then walk back by with the same bill and throw it on the table. There are SOOOOO many better places in Muncie - do not waste your money here. read more

Can I say Horrible. Server was clueless. Manager was close. 1.5 hr after our order was in. No food. Have not been here in a long time. It will be a long time again. FYI.. was not even busy. read more

Close to campus and stays open late. As one of Ball State's closest bars it is usually pretty busy. If you want to go during their wing night/ mug club night it will be pretty slow service due to the sheer volume of people ordering all at once. The staff is friendly and helpful and I have never had a bad experience. I like that they have heaters on the patio and a fire pit. It's great for fall! read more

I'm not a regular customer but I've been visiting for close to 5 years now. Pre-pandemic this place had amazing food, amazing drinks and great staff. Now the food is kinda subpar at best. The drinks and their specials are still great but the food has taken a dive and their staff is hit or miss. Came in on a Tuesday a couple weeks ago ordered a crispy chicken sandwich and it was a pan fried greasy mess. Came in on a Wednesday was not even given a menu and told "ok drink order now then you can get wings". I asked to have a menu and was only given a drink menu and told only wings being served. The picture of the "wings" was not what was served. It was hunks of poorly fried hunks of chicken breast and then a squirt of sauce over them. Not sure what's gone on with the service/kitchen but I'm not so sure I would recommend it for food anymore. read more

My boyfriend and I spent $40 on food to take out and the dishes looked sad. They put in no effort to make them look appetizing. The nachos were just thrown together and the wings were almost naked. Be careful of what you order. You might not always get what you expect. Boneless Wings read more

This place can attract some bad clientele. Brothers Bar & Grill needs to contain and or '86' people who cause problems. They may be over serving alcohol or they are allowing people that are already extremely under the influence to enter and cause a disturbance. I simply don't know, but I know the behavior that is occurring. When the "trouble makers" leave or get kicked out of this establishment they have a pattern of causing disturbances at other places of business in The Village area. Please make an effort to minimize these disturbances. Thank you read more
