Let's just say I love Bru Burger. Service is usually friendly and efficient. The restaurant is always clean. And the food is great. I am partial to the pretzel sticks with the beer cheese. Those darn things can be addicting. They come hot, with just a slight crust and a warm fluffy inside, like a pillow (but tastes a lot better). And the sauce is just perfect with it. As far as burgers go, you just cannot go wrong here. They are all good and I believe I have worked my way through at least half of them already. all of them are big, juicy, made to order and extremely messy... as a burger should be. In my eyes, it's not a worthwhile burger unless toppings and juices drip all over the place every bite you take. For dessert I highly recommend the bread pudding... OMG... nuts, ice cream, drizzle, huge portion... what more could a sweet tooth desire? My favorite drink is of course the pear cosmo, looks good, tastes even better. The pear really dominates this wonderfully refreshing drink. but don't be fooled, it does pack a punch. Why not 5-stars you ask? Well, contrary to the original location, there is a bit of inconsistency here. Occasionally my pear cosmo has to much sour in it... and what is even worse: the ketchup is all over the place. It tends to be so much sweeter than it is in other locations, last time it was spot on though, it's a gamble at best... read more

I love how customizable the burgers are here! I was able to do a snack size mushroom Swiss burger. The pretzel sticks are great, I also enjoy the horseradish mustard! If you get a chance the app with the goat cheese & pepper jam is PHENOM!!!! Problem is the hummus is bland and the guac is very onion heavy. I wish they would have an app with just the goat cheese dip (hopefully they see this lol - friendly suggestion)! They have a good amount of tap beers and a full bar, also good for kids. The servers have always been great for me, I've been here several times never had a bad experience. Nice restaurant for a boujie burger although they are VERY good! read more

The pork brisket nachos were the bomb! Absolutely the best. Hamburger with bleu cheese was ok. The mexicales burger was good per my husband. If you want to get a burger, just get a regular one or you will just end up with more bread. The snack burger is just a smaller patty on the same bun as a regular. i expected like a slider bun or something smaller. I wasn't impressed. French fries were okay. i really enjoyed the beer battered onion rings. I would have probably given this review a 5 star if I hadn't been disappointed in the small sized hamburger patty on a regular sized bun. The nachos are 5 star by themselves! read more

First time at this location. Our server seemed pretty new. When we asked for items she brought them out one at a time instead of making one trip. Moved too fast and should have slowed down to take our order. Food was good pretzel was not the shape i was expecting but good. my berry gorgan salad was great. No-one had complaints about the food. Their food runner Drew was great. He'd make a great server. We will be back sorry no photos we were hungery. read more

I'll be honest, I had bigger hopes for gluten free options from reading some reviews on line. No sides on the menu were safe. Opted to have just a burger and left still hungry. The other people in my party were very pleased with their meals. read more

I don't usually leave reviews, but our experience at the Plainfield Bru Burger was upsetting enough to warrant one. I flew in from out of state yesterday morning, so my dad and I decided to grab a bite for lunch on the way home. The hostess seated us in the bar area, in a booth, across from the bar. The restaurant wasn't very busy upon our arrival, but we noticed our server also seemed to be manning the bar. She was aggressive and clearly inconvenienced by us from the very moment she approached our table. To put it lightly, her overall attitude was terse. My dad asked her what was on draft, to which she responded "we have 16, so I mean, I'm not gonna read them all to you..." (The list was handwritten in chalk on a chalkboard, some distance from our table). After we'd finally decided on a beer for dad, I asked for my Bloody Mary to be extra spicy, a SECOND time, since she didn't respond to me the first time I asked. She proceeded to walk away from our table, slinging over her shoulder the following remark: "I'm bringing it out as is. We already put horseradish and stuff in it." Unbelievable. So the drinks came. Our water glasses ended up on coasters, while my Bloody Mary was placed directly on the table. Dad and I toasted and began to chat. Next thing we knew, the Bloody Mary was quickly sliding on its own accord toward the edge of the table. Somehow, I managed to catch the glass mid-air, only losing half the liquid and the garnish to the floor. Two other staff helped us clean up and were very understanding of what happened, telling us they'd seen it happen before with chilled beer glasses. So, A+ to them. When we told our server what happened, she did not offer to replace the drink, or my napkin for that matter. It was clear she didn't believe us, or simply didn't care. She also 'joked' and relayed to us the kitchen staff was talking about cutting me off. Quite an insulting comment, considering the situation. I'd just gotten off a plane having had only a coffee prior to our visit. Besides, my hands were nowhere NEAR the drink when it slid off the table. A food runner, not our server, took my order for a second Bloody Mary, extra spicy. When it arrived, it tasted like plain tomato juice with hardly any liquor, and completely flat without spice. Needless to say, I didn't finish it. We were charged for both drinks. A supervisor asked how our food came out and didn't even listen for my dad to respond before walking away. All we hope is that this server learns how to treat people more kindly in the future. The experience started my trip off on the wrong foot by ruining the first meal I've had with my dad in months. read more

Second time trying BRU Burger and I'm just not impressed with this restaurant. Our food was bland - my burgers I make at home have better seasoning. Maybe they are relying on all the toppings to boost the flavor, but the burgers are mediocre. I got a pulled pork burger and there was barely any BBQ sauce on it - you can see how dry it is in the photo. Fries aren't anything special either. They were also very bland. My husband thought his food was bland as well. Since this was a second chance to wow me and BRU did not do that a second time around, I don't believe I will be going back. In all honesty, Five Guys has better burgers AND fries. read more

Food and service is always good. I had a burger that was exactly as I wanted. I went for lunch during the week and it was quiet.

Went in on New Year's day around noon and we got seated right away. The only real complaint that anyone in my party had was that the booth was really small. I'm a petite person and I only had about 2 inches between me and the table so I felt really squished. It also made it difficult to use my napkin in my lap which I needed because the burger was pretty messy. I ordered the patty melt and fries. The patty melt was pretty good. I think the fries were sweet potato fries but I couldn't find it anywhere on the menu. They also came with homemade ketchup which was good but tasted more like tomato soup than ketchup. My brother had the Mexicali burger and my mom had the beginning burger. Both really liked what they ordered. Our server was really attentive and took our order right away. Even though it was pretty busy we didn't wait long for anything. I really liked the industrial decor. It also wasn't too loud and we could easily have a conversation. Overall, it was pretty good and I would recommend to anyone looking for a good burger. read more

Great burgers, nice selection of local beers and spirits. Great service and atmosphere. A perfect addition to outdoor shopping.

I LOVE this place! I was greeted by two beautiful girls in pony tails- one brunette and one blond. They were so nice and accommodating to my little kids with their high chairs. The great experience started when they held the door for me and then dealt with my kids running all over all with a cheery attitude. Then, our waitress Chelle gave us the best service. She was at our table in a lickedy-split and checked on us frequently. Our meal was amazing but Chelles kind nature made us want to come back again! Love this place and will be back . read more

They took our large group and handled us with speedy and very friendly service! The food was great and the service was greater!

The Bourbon Burger is amazing ... and the chili cheese fries? I think I died and went to heaven. The service is top notch and the ambiance is great for any kind of hang out you're planning. read more

Bru burger is just one word: AMAZING. I have never eaten at the Plainfield location, only Mass Ave. Not going to lie, I like this location better. Mass Ave is almost always on a wait and super crowded/ compacted. This location is plenty big and while it was busy, I didn't feel packed like a sardine. We sat in a bar booth on a Saturday night. If you like martinis, I highly suggest ordering the pear cosmo. For my dinner, I ordered the Provencal burger. You guys. Im not joking, this was one of the best burgers I've EVER had. Im still drooling even thinking about it. It has basil aioli, marinated red onion, sautéed mushrooms, and herbed goat cheese. Im literally going to come here more often just for that burger. Also, I forgot how fantastic their sauces are!!! They literally have THE best ketchup in Indiana... change my mind. You can't. They must make all their sauces in house. Their ranch is also amazing!!! I unfortunately can't remember our servers name. He was taller, slimmer build with long-ish hair. I want to say it was blonde, but its been a couple of days since I went in. He did a fantastic job the entire time, and even gave us a sauce combo to try- peppercorn mayo and BBQ. You can't beat inside secrets!!! We literally asked for all of our sauces to go and he was nice enough to do that for us. Thank you!! Overall, highly recommend. Go get the best burger of all time, and get some fries and have a sauce buffet. You won't regret it! read more

Average at best. Service is good but the food is just very average. Better places near by.

Summary: You really can't go wrong with Cunningham group restaurants. Looking for a good burger and a beer, steer here! Had a casual business meeting here. It was a Thursday night, early. We showed up and it was basically empty, but filled up. Noise level was appropriate. I had the Stilton Blue Cheese Burger with onion rings. I've been to the other two locations (multiple times), so my expectations of the food were high. Everything met expectations. We waited one time for the server, the waters ran out. Service really has never been an issue, so I didn't ding them for that. Looking for a tasty brew and burger, stop looking and start eating. read more

I really do enjoy this burger spot. There are a lot of other businesses around this area too so if I am shopping nearby and feeling to grab some good drinks and food, I would most likely go here. I've been to this location about three times. The burgers are really big the bartender is hilarious, and overall this place exudes positive vibes I will say every time that I've gone in there it has been pretty dead, but I enjoy places like that read more

Whoever the chef was 2/11 evenings just isn't good. Burger had raw meat in middle , fries way too salty and soggy and greasy! , if you are going to go to a restaurant that uses seed oils why not go to somewhere 4x cheaper. I will never again eat here after that experience and knowing they use seed oils too is just fraudulent like to everyone read more

It's called Bru Burger for a reason... burgers. I ventured astray and ordered the Nashville Hot chicken sandwich. Three breaded chicken strips on a bun is not a what I expected. Was it as good as Popeyes spicy chicken sandwich? Not by a long shot! Was it a $3 bargain like Popeyes? Far from it at $11! Add the more batter than onion, onion rings for an additional $2 and you're up to $13! Yes... $13 for 3 skinny chicken strips and some oil laden, overcooked and batter coated onions. Save your money, and just order the chicken strips from the kids menu (which comes with a side and a drink!) for $6! In the mean time, just order a burger or go to Popeyes for a hot chicken sandwich! read more

To be clear, I'm reviewing Bru Burger Bar from purely a to-go standpoint. I can't say anything about the actual dine-in experience, though it looked quite nice during the time I hung out at the bar. Important points first, the Bru Burger Bar in Perring Crossing shopping plaza is a 10 minute drive from the Indianapolis International Airport. The shopping plaza itself is quite nice and consists of a number of restaurants and shops (I remember clothing stores and a Barnes & Nobles). It also neighbors a Burlington, a Target, and a Walmart. Basically, this area is really good for pre- and post-flight activities. If you've just got off the plane and are looking for food and to stock up (water, toiletries, etc.), this area has all your needs. But my friend and I are in the pre-flight party, as in we were looking for somewhere to eat before I had to go wait three hours in an airport. So, specifically, my friend was driving me to the airport and frankly wasn't in the best of moods. But I was grateful for her letting me stay over for the weekend and driving me, so I didn't make a big deal of it and found us a place to eat that fit her current cravings (because food will make almost everything better). So THANK YOU Bru Burger and Bar. I called ahead to order some food to-go, and was transferred to the bar because apparently they handle all that. They have SO MUCH parking, thankfully. Even though it was in the middle of the weekend dinner rush. And looking around, the plaza is almost boujie. I mean, next to Bru Burger Bar was a lawn and general outdoor seating. We had been talking about maybe eating our to-go food there, but decided to not risk it with my flight. Additionally, how nice everyone was (over the phone or while I was waiting for our order at the bar) really stood out to me. There was something very genuinely friendly about the staff and service that just really made me pause, because WOW. There is a difference. And I was only there for a little while until our order was ready. Hell, they got me water and a cocktail menu while I was waiting just in case I wanted anything. Also, the food was really good! I wasn't expecting anything exceptional from literal fries and chicken tenders, but it was DELICIOUS. The chicken tenders were crispy to a crunch on the outside, juicy on the inside, and both it and the fries were very well seasoned. And they had so many sauce options, it was actually a bit overwhelming listening to the recite the list. All the convenience without compromising taste or quality. It made me so happy that I got that last meal with my friend before leaving. I really wish we had more time to try more things, but I had a flight to catch. In the meantime, if you're on the way to the airport or just got off the plane, I would suggest visiting here. Out of all the places I looked up, I'm glad we went a little further west (instead of trying our luck with one of the restaurants on the east side of the airport) to get gas and food. XD read more

I stopped in for a salad it was amazing! Highly recommend this restaurant! The service was outstanding!

So glad they decided to put a Bru in Plainfield. We make a point to go here when we're on this side of town. I prefer the downtown location but we always have great service at this location as well. This time around I went with the blueberry mule, half order gorganberry pecan salad and snack size Mexicali BBQ burger. All delicious. It was my first time getting the blueberry mule and I loved it. Not too sweet. Very refreshing. I recommend this location to anyone. They've got nice outdoor seating and it's a convenient spot when you're doing some shopping at Perry Crossing. read more

This burger spot was ok! I am vegan and they were accommodating with the food options but I recommend more sauce!! I was visiting from Cali and I gave the restaurant 2 chances. I knew that ordering the impossible burger cooked "well-done" is a "thing" it def made a difference.. I ordered the Impossible Burger with avocado and jalapeño, it was ok. Also, I don't understand why you have to order the fries or onion rings Separate (it should def. come with the burger). Ohhhh yeah and the "house sauce" which was ketchup and something... was too sweet. We'd love to have some regular let up on the side. The over all experience was good but they should beef up the sauce on the burger buns.. read more

Came today for lunch, everything was great with my lunch but my husband did not care for the ahi tuna burger. Our waiter noticed he didn't care for it ( don't really think it was what it was expecting but looked good). Our waiter comped his lunch we didn't ask him to or expect it. The service there is always good but today it was exceptional. I also love that they serve local brews. The Plainfield location is big with out door seating also conveniently located at the Shoppes at Perry Crossing. As usual the quality & service are excellent. Love this more and more with each visit. Came in for Devour which is $15 per person. This includes a starter which can be chili cheese fries and choice of other appetizers or salads and choice of select sandwiches. This is a deal but used to be better. In the past you got a shared appetizer sandwich with a side and a cheesecake to share 2 for $30. So wish they would bring this one back. read more

Great choices for burgers, salads and other sandwiches. They even offer the impossIble burger. This visit I tried something different and had the Nashville hot chicken sandwich. It was good with the right amount of spice in a little bit of kick to it. I paired it with french fries. The only thing I wish they offered is one more healthy or lighter side options. read more

Wow! My husband is occasionally in Plainfield for work and he always RAVES about Bru Burger, we were recently in town and decided to check it out. It was great! The food tasted "homemade" and fresh. I ordered the soft pretzels which come with beer cheese and spicy mustard. The pretzels tasted fresh, not frozen, and I loved the beer cheese! I also had the Bru Burger, which was absolutely delicious! It comes dressed with Taleggio Cheese, Bacon, Tomato Jam, Caramelized Onion, Chopped Lettuce and Mayo. The burger had just the right amount of each topping that each was noticeable without overpowering the other. My husband ordered the breakfast burger and fries, which he said was great, he is a HUGE fan of Bru Burger Bars house ketchup. Our son had a kids cheeseburger and fries which he loved! The restaurant is gorgeous for a burger joint. Despite us visiting on a busy Sunday afternoon our service was great and our waitress checked on us often. We will definitely be returning! read more

The server was rude and the food wasn't very good. It does look nice inside but it can be loud when they get busy

Finally got to try this chain! I was initially surprised by the overall layout of the restaurant- different sections divided out by rooms featuring a variety of different seating options. We were put at a tall table with padded chairs. Overall an awesome restaurant layout and design ideas. Probably makes it easy for private events and parties. As far as the food goes, it was just ok. Nothing special. My burger was good but was cooked rare instead of medium which I had asked for. Wish I would have ordered the small size as I didn't finish it or want to take it home. The fries and coleslaw were also just ok. Our table agreed that the service was a little strange. Our waitress kept on asking us if we wanted things. "Would we like straws? How many, 2? Do we need appetizer plates?" Just a little odd. I'll have to give this place another try sometime as I did enjoy the overall atmosphere. read more

Amazing food! Great service and very clean and elegant inside! Although sometimes the gym upstairs is a little loud

They used to offer halal beef since the caterer for the CRG company was some international vendor that provided halal beef. However, they have changed their vendor in the last few years and no longer carry Halal beef. When I ate it in years past, the burgers were decent and mostly I appreciated the option (although they have a fish based burger too which is less good relative to the high cost). There's a lot population of people here who would appreciate the halal option if they chose to bring it back. read more

I love hamburgers. But... these hamburgers have what tastes like fillers in them. They do not have the fresh beef flavor. I've tried their hamburgers 3 times and they all taste frozen even though I suspect they are not. Other side of the coin however, are the pulled pork nachos. Those are really good! read more

Delicious and great service! Give the pork nachos a try. You won't be sorry :) I also love the Gorganberry Salad.. yum yum

An excellent burger, wonderful hand cut fries and friendly service. We arrived here with a party of 5 and we're well cared for. No complaints from this group. Burger was cooked as requested.
