  • This place is super cute , really good food and even better service! I forgot to take pictures it was so good definitely recommend if you’re looking for a nice lunch spot.

  • The chefs here nailed it! I get mine with American cheese, Blue cheese, bacon and onion. I call it the "Breathenator." They built it perfectly and did not go shy on the toppings. I did not finish this monster (The Big Ugly) today, but I'll be back to try again! Four stars because it was kinda pricey for a burger-centered restaurant. Other than that, it was perfect. Wish I could give 4.5!

  • First and foremost our server was Emma was a bad ass! She was prompt, polite and kind. Since it was our first time in she walked us through the menu and helped with recommendations. My husband and I went with their smaller burger option - he got an original bub burger and I added bacon and an egg. I will say, I found it interesting that the bacon was chopped on topped under the cheese vs bacon strips. The burger was good, nothing too fancy in taste, seemed under seasoned, but it was good. The star of the show in both of our opinions were the cole slaw and the loaded potato salad. Those sides were straight full of flavor! The slaw is a crunchy, chopped slaw that is dairy free, not too heavy on vinegar! The potato salad, I don’t know what made it so damn good but it was fresh, creamy, the potatoes were perfect! While I appreciate that they offer gluten free buns, it was a bummer that the fries aren’t gluten free. We did get our food pretty quickly which is nice seeing as it was right at lunch time, and I appreciated that they had uno cards at each table to keep you entertained vs just sitting on your phone.

  • We had the sweetest server, Leah, at our most recent visit. She greeted our party of 5 with a smile, answered all of our questions, gave great suggestions, and was friendly, attentive, and prompt with our drink refills, etc. Our burgers were delicious, as usual.

  • They have really good burgers with homemade buns. They each come with a side also. Then, if you're really hungry, they have some massive burgers. The cream was really good too!

  • As a newcomer to the incredible offerings here in Bloomington, it was only a matter of time before a Monday afternoon found me at Bub’s! Ever willing to take on a challenge, a huge slab of ground beef was enticing me from under glass just inside the front door. With Ruth as my cheerleader and Liam as culinary competitive eating coach, l took on the challenge! One humongous burger plus cheese, lettuce, onions, pickles and tomatoes to be eaten in an hour or less. After 7 minutes the meat was gone. By 24 minutes the platter empty. Success! A photo now joins hundreds on the wall as another epic performance lives on! Treat yourself to a “recreational eating experience” and learn why this iconic restaurant is beloved!

  • The burger challenge was fun and camera-worthy. The fast service and friendly staff added on to the whole experience. As for the burger, it was freshly cooked to order, and the patties were juicy, although the seasoning kinda varies, probably due to its size.
