Came to visit this place with a group expecting to use DoorDash but hearing the mug website was easier and quicker. Agreed. With the crowd that was the case. They were in the next phase for the COViD and moving along. The service was great and kind. I got the state tradition pork tenderloin breaded. It was huge and fresh. I enjoyed eating a messing sandwich. The fries were ok. The group had various hamburgers and dishes. All around pleasing. I would come back to this place and maybe see about a upgraded rating. But I will stick to the middle of the road. read more

The Mug - Pork Tenderloin - Burgers Near Me - Greenfield, Indiana

The Mug used to be one of my favorite places to eat, that was until it reopened under new ownership. It only took one visit under the new ownership to know that I would not be going back. The quality is no longer there and it appears the owners care more about profit margins than the food they serve. The garlic fries were soggy and greasy. It was almost as though they drown them in a garlic oil prior to serving them. The breaded tenderloin is about a third of the size it used to be but they still have the picture hanging up inside showing the former jumbo tenderloin. When I brought this to the managers attention she didn't have an explanation. I asked for a refund for my order and the manager did it but then said she wasn't sure it went through. Told me to check my bank account and if it doesn't show up in a few days to call her. I let it go for a week before I called. I ended up having to go back and she gave me a cash refund. read more

Great experience. Nice local place with friendly staff and good food. All food is locally sourced including the ice cream and they have root beer on tap. Would definitely go back there again. read more

Highly recommend! We randomly picked this place on our way out of town, after a weekend of soccer games. I had the Oklahoma burger and garlic fries. The burger was very tasty and the fries were made with real, fresh garlic! My wife had the grilled cheese and a side salad. Brie and apples in a grilled cheese, YUM! The salad was fresh and delightful. We shared a Sprecher Root Beer off the tap, which was a great treat. The service was great and it was fun to watch a good crew working together in a small kitchen. We were dreaming of getting a pint of the toasted coconut pineapple ice cream but it was one of the 1st chilly fall days of the year. We'll be back again in the summer. read more

All the food is great. Service is fast and accurate. They have an outdoor eating area and bring the food out to you. They have a great selection of sandwich's I recommend the giant tenderloin. We drove from Anderson to get them. They are great. read more

May not look like much from the outside but it's brimming with flavor! As a vegetarian, I was appreciative that they had a section of the menu just for non-meat options (even if it was just 2 grilled cheese options and some salads). Their fries are pretty standard but standard fries are still delicious in my book. They do have a fresh cut option which are delicious too. I've had the "Aunt Patti's Grilled Cheeser" (grilled cheese with apple!) with both Brie and cheddar. Both were delicious. They've also got house-made root beer! And milkshakes! With fun ice cream flavors to choose from. My family all enjoyed their regular burgers. read more

Came in for lunch and got the single burger, hotdog, and fries. Burger was good but they forgot the jalapeno I paid extra for. Fries were good but had a lot of salt. Hot dog was on a thick bun and also without my jalapenos. The hot dog itself wasn't very appealing to me. Can't put my finger on it but it was just off some how. I opted to not finish it... read more

Love this place and today was the second time I stopped by, this time for an ice cream as a friend and I rode the Pennsy Trail though Greenfield. Its conveniently located just North of the trail, maybe 2 blocks and certainly worth the stop. They have an awesome fast food menu and also serve hand dipped and soft serve ice creams. I got a scoop (generous) of LemonOreo and my friend a root beer float; we both had smiles on our faces. Plenty of outdoor seating which is great on a sunny day like today, and the staff is friendly. Don't miss this place if you are out on the Pennsy Trail.......or even driving thru Greenfield! read more

Great service and the food is always so delicious!! Definitely worth the trip to Greenfield!

I stopped in today for the first time, as I am working in town and had just the original Burger. The burger was very good and the price was fair. The service was excellent and the facility was warm and very clean. read more

Awesome food, retro place. The sloppy joe is my fave! Across from the park so nice place to picnic with your food. read more

food was great. service was horrible. needs a manager. Very unorganized. The cook was the only one that knew what was going on.

The Mug is a really fun nostalgic looking kind of place. The food is excellent and modern though, fun toppings on burgers and hotdogs, delicious root beer on tap. The fried pork tenderloin is awesome and big enough to be a double decker on two buns. Garlic fries were crispy and delicious, though very garlicky, probably not for the person who just "likes" garlic. Service is always super friendly and the staff seem to genuinely like their jobs. Love this place! read more

Love this place!! I have been going here since I was a kid, it has definitely changed over the years but only had gotten better. They have a verity of food items and desserts as well! Great root beer floats if you are looking for that and a killer tenderloin sandwich that can be spilt between two people!! The only downside is it's a little on the pricey side and not much seating unless you are okay with sitting in your car or taking it home. read more

There are two mugs in the Indianapolis area, one in the city, and one sort of further out (aka this one). While I haven't been to the one in the city, I'd strongly, strongly recommend coming to this one. The menu is allegedly the exact same, but visiting suburban Indiana, especially if you're not from the area, is quite something. It's extremely beautiful out here, and for someone like me who has lived in larger cities all his life, you really ought to take a look at this very picturesque american suburb. The food is great too. We both got the pork tenderloin sandwich, milkshakes, along with fried mushrooms and a tiny thing of mac n cheese. The selection was all great, but my favorite were definitely the fried mushrooms, which had a flavor I'd never experienced before. I think deep frying mushrooms must bring out something special in them. In any case, I definitely want to visit Indi again, so I'll for sure be back. read more

We have always loved the mug, but tonight we had ordered sweet potato fries & regular fries and got neither. My bbq pulled pork sandwich was not drenched in yummy bbq sauce or dressed with coleslaw. It was just plain old pork on a bun. Altogether a very disappointing experience. I guess this is what happens when you're closed for half to year and training new staff every six months. I'm being generous by giving them 2 stars. read more

We had so much fun at the mug! A lovely outside burger environment! Great games yard games were available with lots of families! read more

The Mug - Burgers Near Me - Greenfield, Indiana

The new scan to order system is not customer friendly. I stopped for a rootbeer and was told I could not pay with cash. I was requested to fill out the form on the scan service. The food is perhaps among the best of the Eastside of Indy food desert but not worth this new wrinkle. I seldom post reviews but I'm sharing this as a Service to friends who will not post and will not return. read more

Food is really greasy and staff aren't always the nicest but it's all home-y and warm and delicious. Little location with lots of personality. One of my favorites to get cozy, comfort foods. read more

Just had their food again, and as always I am never disappointed. Great service, friendly staff, and overall great food. We always take our friends here who visit from out of town and it is always a hit. Once everything is back to normal, I can't wait to order their fresh cut garlic fries... they're AMAZING! Definitely worth eating here! read more

This is my 5th or 6th trip to The Mug. I have had good and not so good food here. Today the food was good. We ordered the tenderloin and shredded pork sandwich with slaw and garlic fries to share. He said that tenderloin was good and very filling. There was a good amount of pork on the sandwich and also the slaw. It was very tasty and unlike the last time that I tried it it had no fat or gristle in it. The garlic fries, oh so good, vampires won't come near you for a day! I was disappointed that they did not have my favorite ice cream, Graham Central. read more

An AMAZING place! Great meats & plenty of menu options for everyone!! Definitely a place will visit again!!

Lunched here twice in during the past two weeks and plan to return to explore the rest of their menu! My out-of-town guests wanted to experience an authentic Hoosier drive-in -- and an authentic Hoosier tenderloin -- so I brought them to the Mug despite the wind and cold. The sandwiches were fantastic, fresh and flavorful without being greasy; the tenderloin was, as hoped, plate sized and crisp without being overcooked. Not a dairy dessert fan myself, but the guest who ordered a gingerbread milkshake instructed me to give it its own 5 stars. The facility has been significantly remodeled. The outdoor seating arrangements are well protected and heated. Access from Apple street is easy, and, yes, those drive-in order stands still work! read more

We were looking for good ice cream and found awesome food and ice cream! Cuban sandwich, fries, and the original cheeseburger. Shakes and ice cream! Great find!! read more

Man, the pork tenderloin and Cuban sandwiches were both really good. My wife and I split those and the kids had some chicken tenders (of course) which looked awesome. The young people working were a really good staff. I only wish it was closer to my home. I'd eat here once a week for sure. read more

Took a detour off of I-70, and it was extremely worth it. The pork tenderloin "sandwich" was insane. Also really enjoyed the Wisconsin hot dog. Bacon corn was an amazing side. Staff was so friendly! Also, we were traveling with a dog, and they have covered (for winter) outdoor seating that was perfect! And it's across from a cute park so Fido can have a walk before and after read more

Very good! My favorite is the pulled pork sandwich and their coleslaw! Yummy it's making me say more and that's all I have to say and the employees are very nice read more

This is a location that should have been on "Man Vs. Food" - the one of Adam Richman, not the new guy. Yeah, it's a pig-out spot. I went for the Tenderloin, and it was amazing. I wasn't even insulted for not taking it plain which is evidently the "Hoosier Way". Well, sorry. I like Mayonnaise. And lettuce. And tomatoes. And Okra - but, not on my sandwiches. Actually, no. Skip that, I don't actually like Okra. Anyway, (trigger warning) moist on the inside, crispy out, the size of a small island. Served with some fries which were amazing. For dessert? Bacon Ice Cream. I'm not even joking. They have it. It's there. The restaurant is cozy and expanded seating all year round by adding a temporary Plexiglas enclosure for the outdoor area during the cold months complete with heat. And it stays pretty warm. Did I mention they have the "Sonic" set-up as well? They totally do. Drive up, press button, order. Skip McBarf and the weird step cousins that married each other. Hit up The Mug today, because damn. read more

Great tenderloins!! Everything is tasty, so don't expect fast food. Come when you have lots of time. I do wish they had real glass, frosty mugs; just paper cups, so the name is ironic. I wish they had "specials" or discount packages. It's a cute place and I want to like them. I just can't afford to come very often read more

Talk about a hidden gem! Great grilled chicken sandwich (and I am pretty picky about my chicken- so much so that I almost didn't gamble on getting one because I was afraid I would be disappointed. AND mind blowing tenderloin that the hubs got. One bite and I knew - this rivals some of the best tenderloins I have ever tasted. Local meats- great food- a drive in WITH an outdoor area covered with heaters? You can't ask for more! read more

Great family atmosphere with board games to play with your family! Good is farm fresh and great tasting!

It's not what it used to be. You can't even get just a coney dog with cheese. I applaud the attempts to make the menu more refined. But if I'm going to a drive up hot dog stand. Please have a coney dog. And for those dining in, can we not have our root beer in a paper cup. Sad to see some things changed with ownership. And glad to see you trying to put your own spin / updating the menu. read more

The Mug was pretty good. There are high-tech menu boards when you go inside to order. I had the mac & cheese dog and the bacon corn (I think that's what it was called). They take your order and then give you a number to take to your table. You can sit inside. It's a narrow table with tall bar stools. That wasn't the best option for my physically, so we opted to sit outside on one of the picnic tables. Our orders were ready in a timely manner. My hot dog was good. The length of it exceeded the bun. I think they need to have longer buns! The mac & cheese on top of it was also good. My corn? Well, it was pretty good...BUT it came in a teeny TINY cup. Wow. I have never had a side item come in such a small portion. It looked like the size you would put your ketchup in for you fries kinda thing. Oh well. Nobody's perfect I guess. I would come back here. I hear the garlic fries are awesome. I will have to give them a try next time. read more

This is a hamburger place with a lot going for it! Sloppy Joes are great with fresh cut fries. No indoor seating but a nice patio. The meat comes fresh from a farmer's ranch nearby. Not open on Sundays read more

The grilled cheese with Brie and apple slices is so, so yummy! The garlic fries are a bit much. Great burgers as well!

Annual trip to The Mug on our way to Ohio for a family reunion. What a nice, farm to table alternative to fast food on a road trip. Yes, there may be a wait at peak times. That's for a reason. My grilled chicken sandwich was worth the drive alone. I added (fresh cut!) jalapeños and mayonnaise, and the chicken was perfectly marinated. Highly recommend the 10 minute drive off the highway for this spot. read more

We haven't been back in a while because the last two times we ordered it took an hour to get our food each time. Hope things have improved.

Best burger and fries I've ever had! Being dog friendly is a huge plus. I had single cheeseburger made to order and hubby had a double cheeseburger and fries and doggo had the same. Every Saturday is cheeseburger Saturday for our sweet Molly. Ask them for a water bowl for the doggo. We will definitely be back. read more

Really nice place with interesting options for sandwiches. Good Root beer, and they also have ice cream with various and sometimes wacky flavors. We have been very happy with their food and service three times in the last couple months. They use local sources such as Tyner Pond for some of their sandwich meats, good to see that, they taste great and are well prepared. The server worked real hard both inside and outside, was super pleased with service. read more

Says they are open when they are clearly not, having some indication of operating hours would be much less frustrating.
