    Breaded pork tenderloin not the biggest, but it was pretty tasty
    Jim J.

    This is a typical, not quite a dive bar, but the cheapest and best bar in Fountain Square that I have found. They have added a huge outside patio a new indoor bar room and of course they have the old bar room still in use. we took our son daughter and her friend There for dinner. The wife and I split the breaded tenderloin. It was vey good but not big. My son had the chili and grilled cheese of which he gave me the chili and it was really good could've been a little more spicy for me, but it was still good (I would get it again) My daughter had the house salad which was huge and she said delicious and her friend had a Pizza, which he had no comments on. We will definitely go back because this is the cheapest place to eat, drink beer and alcohol in fountain Square.

    Classic Virginia Avenue bar. Live music. Great service. Solid food. Perfect location. Lots of outdoor seating. You can sit in the new side and play trivia or sit in the old side and talk to a local drunk. Pretty much always come here prior to going to the Hifi. Highly recommend.

    ive been coming here for a few years but just tonight ordered their food and was so impressed! i ordered to go, and it was super hot and fresh. the bartender was working by herself and doing a great job super friendly!

    Dugout has long been on my list of bars to try but I never got the opportunity to until this Friday while trying to post up for the Purdue game. Drink specials are phenomenal, $9 pitchers of either Yuengling or Miller Lite is a steal. The bar food is pretty decent as well so if you get hungry I recommend the pizza as it too is reasonably priced. Overall this is a top spot to watch sports, no shortage of tvs and room to post up. Obviously you don't want to show up too close to tipoff because it will be standing room only.

    7 inch personal pan pizza, minus one slice

    Always love coming here. They have the best patio section in downtown Indy. For the outside patio. They now have clear signage of areas that are outside with weight staff versus outside areas. Where you can Serve yourself. They will start to have live music outside here soon once the weather warms up. Today I got the fried ravioli to share with a friend and a 7 inch personal pan pizza. The small personal size is a perfect amount for one person. Pro tip: if you want a little spice, you should ask for jalapeños on the side. It seems to be less spicy, then having them piled and baked into your pizza. The pizza shown in the pictures is chicken, bacon, onions, and green peppers .

    Dugout is one of our favorites spots & after last nights visit- the mozzarella sticks alone deserve a 5 star review. We went for the Pacers Playoff game 6, place was packed, but service was excellent. Drinks were strong, the food was even better. They had mozzarella sticks as a special which are my kryptonite. I wish I would've gotten a photo of the cheese pull...it was the best pull I've seen and the best mozzarella sticks. The live music was also great which ended as the game started.

    The patio alone is enough to make me go to the Dugout Bar! Big enough for all your needs. It is a self-seating type of place with delish food and face service. We got our food just 10 minutes after ordering even though there were large parties all around us. I'll definitely be back

    Is the this bar 21 and older weekday lunch time?

    This was accurate three years ago, but no longer. Kids are always welcome on the patio and in one section of restaurant until late night.

It probably wasn't the best move taking 15 year olds to a bar, but we were starving from a long day, and they let us in. LOL I'm glad we stopped in! The food was good, the service was excellent, and the dive bar atmosphere was welcoming. Looks like a great place to watch a big game with a few friends over a beer and dinner. I'm shocked it wasn't busy in there at all on a Saturday night, maybe because temps outside were brutal. Not sure I'll have the chance to return, but I wish I had one near home!

My friend had to go to the bar to ask them to tell to make her wait on us. 2 of us had to leave by this time for the concert having never been waited on. Mind you we were there for 40 mins. Came back after the concert to grab the shirt I left & again sat at a table to try to get food. Again about 5 times she went by us with us even saying excuse us & she never stopped. 30 mins later we left again without even being waited on or greeted by her. She seemed to only seemed to be able to handle one table at a table. There's only like 8 tables back there. I STRONGLY encourage you to NEVER schedule you around an event. She's losing you money & reputation. It felt very deliberate. Soooo disappointed.

As busy as it was I'm impressed with the quick response and service that I got! I wish I could have remembered to get her name but she took my order fast and food was out in like 5-6 min tops! My friend wanted the taco salad and I ordered the steak quesadilla. As I waited this place was poppin and it seemed to be a cool little spot. Lots of great options on the menu so definitely coming back for takeout when I'm at work in a pinch for time. When I got back to work we saw our food and we were very excited about it and then we went in for the bite and we were definitely happy with the food for the price as well. Taco salad was really delicious and filled to the top! The ranch was prob one of the best I had. She agreed. My steak quesadilla was really good. The only thing I had wished I knew was to ask for an extra side of salsa for the tortilla chips it came with. Definitely not going to forget that next time but will definitely try something else. Especially loved the fact it's a hop, skip, jump from work! Thank you for easy takeout process and good food!
