This was my first trip to Bru Burger. I was pleasantly surprised. I am not a fan of burgers, but they have other options. I had the most amazing barbecue pork nachos. The servers were very quick, and friendly. Drinks stayed full, and empty plates were removed promptly. I will definitely return.

Not really my favorite burgers but they are a good option, I think the fries are good but I don’t like the ketchup from here it has a weird spicy taste, you can ask for an egg on the burguer and choose the point of it as well from the meat, I think the good think about bru burger is tha you have a lot of options, i didn’t like that it felt a little rush on the service since the ask for the tickets kind of quick and I think it’s something weird from a restaurant, don’t get me wrong the service was great. Also really clean bathrooms

We love a good burger restaurant and this came highly recommended. We stopped here while passing through and throughly enjoyed our lunch. We ordered too much food but we knew that. We had the chicken strips, hamburger with loaded fries and pulled pork nachos.
We’re not big chicken strips fans but these were the best we’ve ever had by far. Tender, juicy and lots of flavor. The hamburger was very good and perfectly cooked , which we rarely find. The loaded fries were good but I’d get them plain if I had to do it over. Last was the nachos. They were huge and loaded with toppings and were very good.
It’s a great restaurant and we wish we lived closer. The service was quick and the wait staff very friendly.

This was a great stop before heading to a show across the street.
The burgers were so juicy and flavorful. I loved the steamed vegetables and the soft pretzel was perfect with the mustard.

I come here often, and I always have a good experience. The food is good, and the menu has a ton of options — there’s always something new to try. I recently stopped by the bar and had some margaritas; they were very tasty. Gavin, my bartender, was really friendly and made my visit even better. Definitely one of my go-to spots that I would recommend!

I really love this spot! The vibe is fun and relaxed, and my favorite place to sit is right at the bar—it’s such a great option with those high chairs. You can watch the action while enjoying your food and drinks. Speaking of food, the onion rings are a must—honestly the best I’ve had anywhere. Crispy, perfectly seasoned, and so satisfying. The burgers are super tasty too, and the appetizers are just as good. I usually go for the three-cheese burger with a black bean patty, and the addition of grilled garlic makes it next-level amazing. Everything I’ve tried hits the right flavor notes, and the portions are generous. It’s the perfect casual spot for a night out with friends or even just a solo bite at the bar. Definitely a place I’ll keep coming back to!

Needed a quick but satisfying bite; hotel recommended BRU burger. Here’s my take:
Overall not bad. The flavours of the burger and the fries made for an enjoyable meal.
The burger: I don’t typically like anything more than a simple burger, but the flavours of the Stilton blue cheese burger actually worked quite well. But the burger at the end of the day is about the patty. Good: It was not overly or densely packed, was light and and juicy enough. Not so good: this type of burger could have benefited from a more substantial patty with more of a house made feel, rather than very uniform looking “manufactured” feel. Also, if you ask customers how they like their burgers cooked, please cook it that way or don’t ask. Mine was more well done than medium.
Sides: tried the slaw, chilli and fries. The fries may have been the best bite. Crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside.
Service was excellent..

What a gem Bru Burger is. Went for the first time for lunch and got the black and bleu double smash burger and it was just perfect. The gorgonzola cheese was a unique and delicious touch, and the patties were excellently cooked. The fries were absolutely outstanding and perfectly seasoned, and the house ranch and “ketchup” (not sure if it was ketchup or just a tomato-based sauce) were delicious. Our server Nathan was a breath of fresh air. He was amazingly personable, and all the staff really seemed to love what they do. The atmosphere was so comfortable and welcoming, and I will definitely be visiting again next time I’m in the Indy area.

I’m willing to drive 16 hours back this direction just for the burger. You ladies were kick ass. 12 out of 10 recommend

Sadly, the Provençal is no more and without explanation. This used to be their signature burger and it was outstanding. I’m disappointed to see that this item was removed. The Cunningham coaster gives it away, a move to a chain experience without the differentiation that made them great. Sad.
