    Really nice service from every person we met. This visit was to meet friends and sit and visit, and no one rushed us in the slightest. The food was solidly good and the room was kept clean by the constantly patrolling employees. The large lot and drive-through were hopping the whole time we were there (a couple hours!) and it sure makes sense why that is: this Culver's outlet is a good place.

    Flavor of the day - Lemon Berry Cake

    I was visiting a friend on a cold, post-snowstorm day, and we decided we wanted ice cream, but from somewhere with a parking lot since I didn't feel like a second round of hunting for a street spot (did that once earlier in the day for brunch) with all the ice still around. This turned out to be lovely. Culver's has a big parking lot, and we both like their custard. I had a scoop of the flavor of the day which was a berry lemon cake swirl and it was excellent. The lemon custard had a berry swirl and chunks of pound cake. It was fresh and delicious. Service was super-friendly, and even though we were just getting custard, they still brought our order to the table and offered cups for water. The eating area was really clean even though they likely had just finished the lunch rush. The restaurant is bright and sunny which was perfect on a cold day. I definitely need to keep this place in mind if I want to grab a cone on my way out of town.

    The place was packed but I don't really understand why. Our party ordered the fried chicken sandwich meal and the spicy fried chicken sandwich meal. The chicken was perfectly fried, but the sandwiches were incredibly dry. They really need to put some sort of sauce on them, or offer something other than ketchup. Also, I love cheese curds, but their curds are just ok- bland.

    Great food and great drive in. Always a delight to try out a little slice of Wisconsin in Southern Indiana.

    Blue cheese salad and a small side of sweet potatoes fries. Life is about balance!

    See all

    Let's start with the parking.. drive through down town Bloomington at 2pm and it's so hard to find…read moreparking. The college kids are everywhere and the one way streets along with construction makes it a mess. Bub's has parking and the pay meters are cheap. I think it's only a dollar an hour. Bubs is close to downtown without all the inconveniences. At 2pm today, we got right in. We each had a Vanilla Coke and split a burger and fry then followed with ice cream. The burger was delicious and juicy. Sorry, I devoured it too quick to get a picture. We had a great time playing uno while waiting for our food, although it didn't take long to get our food. Our waiter was nice and the restaurant is clean. I do recommend bringing a sweat shirt. It was freezing in there. Also, prices are reasonable. Receipt as pictured.

For a .25lb elk burger, and half pound steak and egg burger with one side fries, and one sweet potato fries, it was $55. It was good, but a bit pricy for what you get. (Side of fries, or anything else cost extra, fyi) - Eh on the service. Started ok, but went down a little. Be warned you do have to pay to park.

Buffalo Chicken: 6/10 -- my sister got this and rated it a 6 (because there are no 7s on my scale). for $15+ and no side of fries this was kind of a scam sandwich lol #recessionindicator Sweet Lou's: 6/10 -- heavy on the sweet i was a fool i looooove bbq but their special "q sauce" was a bit like molasses rather than classic bbq. the patty, onion ring, and bacon were perfect but i literally could not taste them without scraping off the sticky sauce. again, $15+ and no side i feel like the flavor wasn't enough for me to recommend this to anyone. Tender & Fries: 6/10 -- what in the walmart brand frozen curly fries without salt nonsense on a plate was this... they got us LOOOOL... great value??? YEAH hard pass!!!! I was visiting my sister and she recommended this place because she had heard about it from fellow IU students. My thoughts: come for the IU memorabilia, and ambience, eat an order of onion rings (maybe sip a beer) while you watch a game and leave! The food was mediocre at best and wayyy overpriced.

    Wow. What happened? This place I swore by not so long ago has taken a serious nosedive…read more Lunch with the kid again. Fun, right? Nope. They were a bit busy but it didn't seem like a huge crowd today. We sat outside again. I knew what I wanted immediately, and placed our order as soon as our waitress came over to greet us. A cheeseburger for the kid, and a pulled pork sandwich for me. I've never had theirs before. And I never will again. And fries. We got fries. The wait was insane. At least a half hour for very simple dishes. The kid got a tiny burger. Beef and bun. No cheese, no ketchup. I had to ask for cheese. Yes. They messed up a cheese burger. Then there was my pulled pork. It was literally inedible. I've since come to learn that it was not reheated properly, so the goo that covered every bit of meat was fat. It was served cold, for some reason, and the way it was presented on the menu, listed under a picture of some yummy browned wings led me to believe it would be a very different - and HOT- sandwich. The server did offer to take it back, but at that point the meal was ruined for me and I didn't trust them to make anything else, or make it quickly. I made it clear I was very unhappy about such a disgusting sandwich. She took all of 10% off my bill. Better than nothing, but a lot less than I was expecting. if this is how they're doing things now, I'm done with this place. Badly overseasoned fries... cold pulled pork... cheeseburger with no cheese... I mean, come on... and based on what little I caught from people at another table, getting food out seemed to be an issue for them. I'm not sure if any other places nearby that aren't just bars serve decent food, but if they do, you can definitely give this place a hard pass. Yuck.

Please do something about the ventilation in the kitchen!

    Really cool place - they have a ton of beer to try! Their beer menu (which was fully printed and…read moreavailable at our table - no scanning a QR code or squinting to read a board at the bar) had a whole page of beers by The Tap Brewery, followed by two pages of guest craft beer representing every major type of beer and with some unique options, all on tap. For drinks, cocktails (and a few mocktails) and a smaller selection of wine are also available. I wanted to get beer but I was kind of tempted by the cocktails. My first choice was a flight that included a mix of The Tap beers and guest beers, but the waiter came back after taking the order and told me that they could only do flights with their beers but could let me sample the beers I wanted to try, so I did that, and the samples were probably around 2 oz each so I basically got half a flight. After that, I ended up ordering a real flight of their beer. The Tap beers I tried were: Kill the Lights stout (regular and barrel-aged), Tapenator dark lager, Frost Bite winter ale, Nefarious Nectar blonde. Guest beers: Jacob Leinenkugel white mocha stout, Weihanstephaner Hefeweissbier, BrewDog Winter Staycation. Not going to waste space reviewing all of these, but they were all fantastic. I was really grateful that they let me sample so many! And they also have food. The menu isn't huge but does have some variety, and it's not just basic pub food. I had the ahi tuna crunch bowl and it was pretty good! It kind of had the vibe of stuff thrown together in a poke bowl, but it worked and I thought the fish was done really well. Our waiter was wonderful! He was really friendly and just the right amount of attentive. My friend and I stayed for a while talking after we had paid and he didn't rush us out at all. Granted, it was a pretty quiet night. We both really liked the vibe of the place. I would love to be back soon!
