mug-n-bun drive-in

friendly staff, great all-american food & fun experience. eating at a greatplacelike this is something everyone should do at least once!

i strive not to be a creature of habit, but when we got into indy, there was only oneplacei wanted to go to for dinner – mug ‘n bun - indianapolis’s old school drive-in. mug ‘n bun has been serving up burgers and deep-fried treats since 1960. we discove

worst service ever. we got to mug'n bun and it was rather busy so we thought it must be good. were we wrong as thisplacehad the worst service i have ever had in the 30 years i lived here. we pulled up between 2 cars by the seating area and waited for 15 minutes, my wife went up to the window to order and they said someone would be right over. after another 15 minutes someone finally showed up to take our order and the person next to us. we waited for 20 minutes and a waitress took drinks to the car next to us and went back up never to return. we waited for almost another 20 minutes until we got the kids in the car seats and left. the car next to us was still sitting there waiting for their food. in the 1 hour we waited there we were able to go to edwards drive in, order our food and eat. will not be back, would not recommend and scratched from the weekend classic car drive in cruises.

wonderfulplace, unique ambience and atmosphere, delicious food items , optimal hygienic conditions and punctual and prompt service. highly recommended.

first of all verify prices over the phone or in person before youplaceand order. nothing on the website or in this app currently reflects pricing. even with current pricing they still don't calculate the tax correctly and you can overpay. some of the servers are pleasant some are not. in my opinion they are pricey for fast food. my chili cheese fries and five piece mini corndogs came to $9.41. the chili cheese fries are good though. the grilled cheeseburger is good but way too greasy and entirely too much cheese. they used to take american express but just recently quit it. they have not properly removed the signs to reflect so. there is nothing special about thisplaceunless you want different fast food types of items such as the grilled cheeseburgers, root beer, and chili cheese fries.

good chuckwagon sandwich. had the chuckwagon sandwich, pretty good! had some of the onion rings on the side which were sinfully good!

got our hotdog fix..!. it was a beautiful day out. wife and i just left a movie this afternoon and didn't want to ruin our dinner date we had planned. we opted to stop by here to get a hotdog fix! she opted for a plain dog with ketchup and mustard. i myself had been wanting to get a coney/cheese/onion dog fix for quite sometime and opted for the cheese, sauce, and onion hotdog. got our dogs with a couple of small root beer drinks to hold us over until our dinner date. very good!

love thisplaceon junk night!. no one in your group or yourself can make up their mind on the food they want to eat? want to take a trip into the past. try this place. virtually anything on the menu to satisfy a kid to a senior. you can get it to go or eat in your car. i haven't had one thing from their menu that i disliked. of course there are items i prefer over others. i would suggest the hot pepper cheese balls with a side of cocktail sauce, chuckwagon sandwich, breaded tenderloin isn't bad, pizza burger is good, corn dogs are good, but the absolute best are the onion rings; they are legendary and what thisplaceis commonly known for. a regular order will feed two. oohhh, and the root beer is pretty good too. take home a half gallon. note - if you call in an order for pick-up, be sure to certainly check your order before you leave, we've been disgruntled a couple of times when we got our order home but wouldn't ever discourage anyone for trying thisplacedue to that.

not like it used to be. two root beers, two foot longs and an order of wedges shouldn't take 45 minutes at 4pm. food is cold and buns are stale. thisplacehad gone downhill since it used to be a mainstay for race fans.

....thisplaceis a kind of a legend and it has been around forever, but let's face it, they are serving pretty much everything straight from the freezer. i even asked, and was told by our server that....

vavavava, click click click. that's my teeth chatterin'... cuz everything is frozen! don't get me wrong theplaceis cool! root beer is da bomb! pork tenderloin was good but it was like eating a pete's pride tenderloin... don't get me wrong i liked it but i expected it to blow me away. the cheeseburger was good but i could get the same anywhere i go. the onion rings were cold and chewy. we sent them back so we could try fresh ones but they never arrived. for me the best part was the fries... but can you say white castle serves the same?? yes you can! seasoned salt and all. we were truly disappointed! do not go if you want fresh homemade... only go there if you drank a lot of booze and want to get your deep fried fix on. oh but don't drink and drive... how someone else drive you. monkey butt

it has been the best for years.... mug n bun has been around since before i was born, and it is the onlyplacei can recall that has had such good food for so long.

you can always count on a great tenderloin and onion rings, and rootbeer in a frosty mug. (i'm not even a fan of onion rings, but i love them here!) when i don't get the tenderloin, a footlong and fries is my "backup plan." it sounds like a simple meal (and it is), but there is something about mug n bun that just makes it taste better than anywhere else.

my absolute favorite food from here is the pizza shop in the back. i remember mom ordering pizza every weekend around 9:30... and dad would walk in the door with the hot pizza just in time to watch saturday night live. the pizza is the same now as it was 30 years ago, and every time i go home to visit mom, i try to get a pizza. those ladies work hard in the pizza shop, and the proof is in the taste.

mug n bun is a classic landmark in speedway, and it should not be missed.

very good. mug n bun is great its the best drive in i know of the food is great the portion's are big and its the onlyplacei know of that has a peanut butter milkshake and it is amazing.
