Reviews
Murphy’s has four locations around Indy. They have a business history dating back to the 1950s in Indianapolis and opened the southside pub in 2014. I know many Franklin Township residents are regulars at this Thompson Road location.
When we arrived I found the overall vibe to be similar to Flashbacks, but about half the physical size. They had an open dining room, a bar, and a small stage for live music performances. For sports fans there was a gigantic 12’ HD TV screen!
Our server, Kayla, greeted us and provided warm and friendly service throughout our visit. We ordered Fried Mushrooms as an appetizer but were informed they were out of them. So we pivoted to Fried Pickles instead.
I attempted to order the steak special I’d seen posted on their Facebook page that day but was told that it wasn’t the day’s special (the board had a Tzatziki Chicken Sandwich listed). When I asked for clarification and showed the post I was told that the kitchen and social media folks don’t communicate well. So be aware that advertised specials may not be accurate.
I also noted that the menu posted on their Facebook page was outdated and had incorrect pricing. Consult the menu pictures below for current pricing as of this posting.
We again pivoted to another special— a large ($23) Supreme Pizza for the price of a small ($18).
The Fried Pickles were awesome! They were big spears and had lots of crunchy breading. They almost looked like chicken fingers. An important fried pickle metric is how well the breading adheres to the pickle during a bite and I’m happy to report they passed the test. The sriracha ranch was good too.
The Supreme Pizza arrived overcooked with black edges on the crust and toppings. None of the toppings particularly stood out and I ranked it just north of a frozen Jack’s pizza. The discounted $18 price still felt like too much. Being completely transparent, tavern-style pizzas aren’t my favorite genre to begin with.
I want to again highlight Kayla as she was quick with our refills, kept our table tidy, and had an easygoing personality that made us feel welcome. We appreciated her approach to service.
It’s unfortunate my initial visit was plagued by miscommunication and dashed expectations, but I’ve heard they make a good Tenderloin and would be inclined to try that if I was to give it another go.
Fish N Chips was a mountain of amazing, and lightly breaded food.
My 1/2 lb burger was amazing as well.
While I did not get the steak, I saw one delivered to the next table over, and it was massive!
