    What a fun spot! From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed and comfortable. The atmosphere is casual and inviting, making it a great place for families, groups of friends, or anyone just looking for a good meal at a fair price. The food was absolutely delicious and so affordable, which is a big win when you're eating out with a family. Everyone in our group found something they loved, and all the dishes were flavorful, fresh, and served quickly. You can tell they care about both quality and keeping the menu approachable for all ages. Since it was HOT in August, we opted to eat inside, and I'm so glad we did. The dining area was cool, clean, and comfortable, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Still, the place has a relaxed vibe that I imagine would be just as fun outside on a nicer day. The service was excellent--friendly staff who kept things moving smoothly while still being attentive and kind. It's the little touches like that which really stand out and make a restaurant feel worth coming back to again and again. Overall, this was a fantastic dining experience. My family had so much fun, the food hit the spot, and we left already talking about when we'd return. I highly recommend this place not just for the food, but also for the warm service and the great overall atmosphere. A true gem!

    Great ambience and food at this landmark location in Indianapolis near the speedway. Park on two sides of the building.Food can be brought to your car,(just turn lights on) or to your table outside on the patio. Get into the 50s vibes. Service staff is very nice and efficient. She also did a great job considering it was understaffed that day.

    The best Onion Rings
    Aimee B.

    Food: great price for what you get. My peanut butter banana shake was delicious. My son loved his root beer float. Apparently they make their own root beer. Onion rings were light and crispy. Not too much batter which made them easy to eat and not feel full. We got the chicken tenders, hamburger and cheese burger kids meal. All yummy. We will most definitely be back to try more of the big menu. Service was quick, friendly and everything you'd want. Ambiance: place is older/run down but that really just adds to the character. It's been around for a while so it was to be expected. Can't wait to come back and try their desserts and other shake flavors .

    I love that this place still has your order taken and brought out to the car window! You can't go wrong with a tasty cheeseburger and French fries or onion rings! Root Beer is a must! The tenderloin is one of my favorites!

    Everyone talks about the drive-in, but don't miss the pizza shop in the back! (The pizza shop is carry-out only.) I'm usually not a huge fan of pizza, but I'll eat this one EVERY chance I get! Their pizza is consistently excellent- nice, slight crisp to the crust, great cheese, a nice sauce, plenty of toppings... I'm salivating just thinking of it. My family has been getting pizza here since I was a kid (about 45 years ago)!

    Long time old fashion car hop!!! Food is good...they have a full menu with all sorts of things, we ordered double cheeseburger, chili cheese dogs and onion rings and mugs of homemade root beer!!! Service was great and atmosphere is awesome..definitely family and pet friendly. They have a nice covered area with tables to eat and you can also just pull up and someone will come and take your order. Also a walk in restaurant next door!! Give them a try...we definitely will be going back to try other menu items.

    Root beer float please!
    Thama P.

    I pulled up and received service right at my car door window. I ordered root beer floats, onion rings, and French fries! I didn't wait very long to receive my food once I placed my order. Onions rings were hot and crispy, on the larger side (definitely shareable). The root beer float was deliciously sweet and creamy! The root-beer was one of the best I've had so good!

    The chili cheese dog with onions and fries is delicious.

    Mug n Bun is a Westside staple after 50 years and loved by many with a steady following. Unfortunately, it is currently for sale and some uncertainty for the future for us who visit often. Our go-to's are the chili dogs and family size French fries. My son loves the breaded tenderloin with everything on it. The milk shakes are good, and I order the peanut butter. The shrimp, chicken, and catfish dinners are very popular. The Italian Sausage and Polish Sausage are decent, and the Sirloin Steak Hoagie is hit and miss. Sometimes it is very tender and next time tough. There is outdoor seating on the deck with indoor seating at the Mug n Bun house next to the parking lot. They are open year round. Mug n Bun Pizza is located at the back of the parking lot. Pizzas are CARRY OUT ONLY. They are very popular with patrons. Pizzas are obviously offered as well as subs, fried chicken, pork chops dinners, and chicken dinners along with family dinners. Family dinners include potatoes, slaw, and rolls. After 54 years, they must be doing something right! Whether you carry out, sit in your car to eat, sit on the deck, or go indoors, it will trigger those nostalgia days of car hops and drive-ins. Stop in and take advantage of Mun n Bun in case they disappear from Speedway soon.

    Ask the Community - Mug n Bun

    I'm just wondering why they don't do card tip for the servers? I always feel real bad because I don't carry cash with me everytime I go to mug n bun. I understand that it's an old fashion drive in but the servers deserve every opportunity for a tip.

    I would assume that this is because of the high transaction costs of credit card machines and the % that the credit card company takes. I did however see today that they are taking zelle, Venmo, and cash app for tips as well as cash.

    Is there actually a differences between the superburger and the double cheeseburger?

    The Super has Bacon.

I drove by here all the time and then heard it was featured on Diners, Drive-In's, and Dives. I had been curious to try it out for a while now and I finally logged a couple visits. At the moment, they're only open for the drive through and curbside pickup while they're under construction to introduce indoor seating. I suppose I'll have to visit again to be able to rate the ambiance. I've had friendly interactions with both times I came. One time, I had the food brought out to my car, while the other time I had to drive back around to pick up my order. Both times, I got the empanada combo and that was well worth it! For $17 you get three empanadas, some churros and Dulce de leche, and house made kettle chips. I'll rank my favorite empanadas in order: Oreo cheesecake (oh yeah, you read that right!) Birria Argentine chorizo Creamy chicken S'mores Cheesy pineapple bacon These are all great. This was a hard list to make. I would definitely recommend all of them if you have the chance to order more. I also want to try all the empanadas on their menu eventually. The kettle chips are on the less salty side, which I prefer. I think they have a hint of sweetness to them. The churros... on their own they're pretty decent but the Dulce included? Next level. I always save my leftover Dulce to find something else to dip in it. How I have leftover is beyond me but I won't complain! Overall, I think Che Chori has a pretty expansive menu, considering that empanadas, burgers, and pizza are very different things. I'm not sure how the others stack up, but I will definitely be back for the rest of the empanadas!

    Daredevil Brewery has great beer and a nice outdoor setup, but I really think management should…read morereconsider the current atmosphere on the patio. During my recent visit, kids were freely throwing footballs and baseballs around crowded tables where people were trying to eat, drink, and relax. One overthrown baseball nearly hit one of my dogs. I fully support family-friendly spaces, but the patio should still feel safe and enjoyable for everyone. Allowing ball throwing in a packed dining area creates unnecessary safety risks for guests, servers, and pets. A simple rule against throwing footballs/baseballs in the seating area -- or designating a separate play space -- would make a huge difference and help preserve the relaxed brewery environment many customers come for. The beer and staff were great, but the outdoor experience would improve significantly with a little more structure and supervision.

There's a solid selection of different styles of beer here. It looks like they won some awards. As soon as you walk in the door, you get a width of that delicious smelling tavern style pizza that they make there. I already had lunch plans and other food plans for the day otherwise I would've totally gotten some of that pizza cause it smelled and looked really good. When I got here, I was able to sit at the bar right away pretty much. There were some people there, but it wasn't crazy. Crowded on a Saturday late morning. The tasting room is nice and clean and there's also outdoor seating area. Looks like a place that's good for families and pets. I was on my craft beer crawl portion of my trip so I was only able to drink one beer here. But definitely a place I can see myself hanging out at frequently if I lived in the area.

A little while ago I met a friend there for dinner. There were lines waiting in front of those kiosks to order... I hate those things. Went around all those folks and stepped up to the counter, was taken care off immediately and received my food before half of the kiosk users were even done ordering. I do have to say service was friendly and efficient.
