A great alternative to Scotty's Brewhouse, this burger joint is the company's first foray outside of their hometown of Carmel , IN where they have a similar restaurant in addition to a breakfast café ).
If you have a hearty appetite, this is the place. All Burger weights are AFTER cooking, so when you get a quarter pound "Not so Ugly", that's what it weighs when it gets to you. Try the Elk .
Elk Burger medium rare, bucket o beer , peanut butter milk shakes , waffle fries , onion rings , chili !
The burgers are not only excellent but very customizable. The staff is well-informed and very good at explaining all of the menu options.
The burgers are excellent. Milkshakes are great too, BUT be prepared to wait too long to receive it. They said they were busy, but I can't think of an excuse to wait 15-minutes for a mikshake. :(
I love getting waffle fries with a side of chili or soup to dip them in! Grilled/blackened chicken fingers are also amazing!
Yummy elk burgers and who can say no to sweet potato waffle fries ? (With or without marshmallow sauce )
Amazing burgers ! Amazing staff . Love the atmosphere. Elk burger is incredible.
The elk burger is awesome. Get a shake you won't regret it!
Elk burger is awesome & so r the sweet potato waffle fries with marshmallow dip !
Vegheads need not despair in this carnivorous den. They have a great portobello cap sandwich . The menu says mushroom burger , but there's no dead cow on this one.
Go for "The Big Ugly " challenge and get your picture on the wall. Two in one sitting gets you a larger pic. Four will get you a life-size cutout.
The half pounder and sloppy waffles are amazing!
Great burgers , best I've had in a long time!
Try the sweet potato waffle fries with lots of pepper and the marshmallow sauce !!! Yum!

Mena is the bomb, she also hits bombs on the softball diamond.....
The Elk burger is a must try :) - the sloppy fries are good too
Elk burger and waffle fries are an awesome combo!!! :)
You can find the absolute freshest meat for burgers at Bub's...which helps them create DELICIOUS burgers !!
Don't get too many toppings if you try the Big Ugly
If you do the Big Ugly , prepare for a food coma afterwards! So good but SO MUCH MEAT!
Get the shake ! Fuck yes! Servers suck though. Food was decent. THE SHAKE !!!
Try the chili !!! Delicious.
Great for dates! Split a big ugly and a malt .
Not so ugly is big enough, and tastes amazing. Relatively expensive place though.
Try the sloppy waffle fries . Theyreeeeeeeee great!
The Sloppy Waffles are an excellent choice.
Great burgers and the sweet potato fries are awesome.
For anyone not from Btown and you are trying to locate Bub's it's actually more like at 9th and Morton rather than 8th which is City Hall .
The ice cream shop is separate from the restaurant , so no need to eat there if all you want is something cold.
Ask for Jenny as a waitress . Extremely nice and quick service !
Play some of the trivia games they leave on the tables while you wait for your food.
Sweet Potato Waffle Fries ! On nom!

Not So Ugly Elk with Bacon is the Best!!! However the sweet tea wasn't SO sweet.
