    "Game on" on the patio!
    Lisa C.

    Stopped here for a quick dinner while driving through the area. So worth it! Fresh homemade food, fun outdoor heated patio, and wonderful staff members who were super helpful. First time here and I was very impressed! The food was made fresh upon ordering. Locally sourced ingredients were used. Homemade ice cream too...yum! Get the ice cream in a handmade shake! Excellent consistency, not too thick or thin. Really enjoyed my burger, it wasn't over cooked. Delicious! My spouse ate the breaded tenderloin and said it was amazing. Excellent ratio of tenderloin to breading. Highly recommend the fresh cut garlic fries too. Will eat here again the next time I drive through the area.

    You've got to try their root beer! It's definitely in the top three I've ever tasted. I also got the jalapeño poppers. They were very very tasty. They came with ranch. Be advised they do charge $.50 for the ranch. This was not a problem. It's just it wasn't mentioned when I ordered. What if I didn't like ranch? The mac & cheese was also very tasty. Creamy and full of cheese. I will say for a side order it was extremely small. I would rather pay a couple dollars more and have a larger size. It's like three or four bites. You pull up to a menu board and flip the switch to have someone come and take your order. The young lady that came to take our order was a five-star waitress. She was super sweet and very friendly and helpful. Did I mention how great their root beer is seriously folks, you've got to go try it!

    We really enjoyed a tasty snack at The Mug on our recent trip to Greenfield. We shared a delicious burger, garlic fries and a rootbeer. The burger was phenomenal, thr garlic fries were good and very fresh, but a lot of garlic! Loved the atmosphere!

    Mac Dog Pork Tenderloin French Fries Onion Rings

    Loved the atmosphere and history of the place, however I was less than impressed by the food. It was decent but not as good as I was hoping or expecting it to be. Fries were soggy. Onion rings were the best with what we ordered and 'draft' root beer. All high school kids running the place and one girl was doing most of the work and keeping busy while the boys were chatting and making the food. Ice cream flavors were limited and not very good. Overall, sad that this wasn't as good as I'd hope it would be, but will be back later on to try again!

    Stopped here while visiting a friend in the area. I ordered the tenderloin. I also had a root beer float. Both items were tasty and the service was good. You can drive up and order from your car or you can order inside and eat at one of the picnic tables.

    Breaded tenderloin - Mug style (pickled jalapeños and cabbage)

    This is the quintessential Greenfield restaurant. Do yourself a favor and order the tenderloin 'Mug style' (cabbage and pickled jalapenos).

    The Pork Tenderloin, Reg Garlic Fries, Breaded Mushrooms, French Fries and root beer
    Rachel M.

    Two stars because the workers were really nice and hard workers, if not for them it'd get 1 star. I got the pork tenderloin, it was huge but no flavor. Small hamburger bun with wilted lettuce, tomato and a lot of red onion. I also got garlic fries. All you can taste was the fresh chopped garlic. My neice got the hotdog, it was small, regular hotdog. She ores fries with it, she said they were just ok. But then there was also 2 extra bags of fries in our bag, we assumed the sandwich's came with fries but we weren't told that and ordered fries, it would have been nice to have known that. The fried mushrooms were also bland. The root beer was nasty, it didn't taste anything like root beer and left a bad aftertaste. I dumped it and got water. We agreed we wouldn't return. $36 meal

    We absolutely love the mug! The food is always fresh and delicious. The service is always as expected. Get the Jalapeño popper burger and their garlic fries + extra garlic.

    Driving through Greenfield, I decided I wanted to try something new for lunch. I googled and found the Mug and was impressed by their reviews so I decided to give it a try. Waited 15 minutes but it was worth the wait! WILL BE RETURNING!! The jalapeño popper cheeseburger was so delicious and the fries were hot and fresh! The staff was very friendly and helpful as well. I didn't have my family with me but this is a great spot for families and will be taking mine there soon! Local handcrafted ice cream for dessert, can't beat it!

As great as the ice cream was, the two young women working today were equally great. Libby, if you read this, let them know we appreciated the great service and their sunny personalities.

Evelyn Confections -- also somewhat confusingly called Greenfield Chocolates by some -- is a boutique chocolate shop in downtown Greenfield. They use Valrhona chocolate and other high-quality ingredients to make their confections, and everything that they make is so fresh that they ask you to eat it within two weeks. I love that these chocolates are so good that they have rules! I don't think any kind of chocolate, in any amount, would last two weeks at my house, especially if it came from this chocolate shop, so that's no problem for me. They gave samples of their milk chocolate and dark chocolate, both of which were amazing. The chocolate has a snap when you bite into it, which is what you want. Then, it melts in your mouth. So luscious and delicious. I got a small sampler box of some of their popular chocolates: a milk chocolate caramel, a creamy vanilla bean truffle, a lemon chiffon truffle, a chocolate that had champagne in it (!!) and a crispy chocolate bonbon. Each chocolate was unique and spectacular and delightful. They have lots of chocolates and truffles, but they also sell chocolate bars, chocolate-covered nuts, caramel clusters and so many other chocolate-covered things. Greenfield Chocolates -- also called J. Evelyn Confections -- has received the Indiana Artisan seal of approval, which is kind of a big deal!

Some of the candies have a short shelf life (a couple days) because they are made of fresh ingredients and preservative free. She told me that their best seller are these giant nut clusters. They come with pecans or cashews and milk chocolate or dark. I picked out a dark chocolate cashew cluster. I ate my candy later in the evening and it tasted simply devine. The chocolate was rich and salty and the caramel creamy with the crunch of the fresh tasting nuts. What a treat. I'll be returning. The clerk told me that they decorate seasonly, and Christmas decor is fabulous.

    Our first visit to Carnegie's in Greenfield to celebrate a wedding anniversary. I was disappointed…read morethat the online booking tool did not allow me to enter a special occasion so the restaurant had no idea it was our anniversary. There is apparently no difference in service. My hubs ordered a glass of merlot and I ordered their lemon/blueberry martini. The merlot was nice but the martini was out of this world. My new fave drink! We started with the asparagus dip and again, the best we'd ever tried. We ordered their smothered chicken and an off menu pasta with sausage. Both were incredible. I wanted to try their pasta so I ordered a side of fettuccine in herbed butter. It too was lovely. The venue is in the basement of a former Carnegie Library. It's a little dark and has a speakeasy feel. We turned the lamp on our table to a brighter setting to see a bit better. Our server was Chris. He is very knowledgeable and gave us a lot of information about the food, business and building. The GM, Jeremy, gave us a tour of the upstairs portion of the building where they hold specialty events. Overall, we loved all of our evening and were able to have this experience right at $100 for both of us. We'll be back!

We went on a weekday for a special occasion... my SO's birthday. They gave him a card which was a nice gesture but service was slow for a slow night. The room was freezing... the door opens and the cold rushes into the basement-like dining room. It's still too dark (couldn't see the menu without using our phone flashlight). The chairs are not comfortable. Overall it's too expensive for me and it'll be a long time before I go again. (We tend to drive to Fortville for dinner and are never disappointed with multiple restaurants to choose from. ) The reason I gave a 3 is because of the service, the room temperature and the fact that we only really enjoyed the chicken dish. They also might serve a piece of cake for a birthday if they wanted to impress me... lol.
