Chicken fingers and pizza are yummy yummy!!!!! Lol! Food has been great the last several times we have been in! Good drinks and lots of beer choices (although I'm not a beer drinker)
Fantastic lil "hole in the wall" place! Great food, large screens to view sports... go Cubbies! Great service and great people watching tables outdoors!
For a dive bar, they have really good food. Great service.
Was my first time at the Dugout. Waitress was awesome, very attentive and the food was excellent! I had the Philly cheesesteak 👍🏼
Nicest dive ever. Service was good as was food definitely will return
Great nabe and people watching outside. Solidly yummy food. A really fun spot to grab a meal and a drink. Spring/Summer/Fall for the huge outdoor patio is the most fun!
My favorite dive bar in Indy. The Dugout has a great setup. There are two sides, the old side with a lot of bar seating and outdoor seating along the sidewalk. The newer side is nice too and has a huge outdoor seating area. They have live music a couple nights a week which generally draws a decent crowd.
Recently added a third area that opens to the outside with a huge bar and a stage for live music. Live music schedule is up for the fall.
The original side is a gem though. A-lot of friendly locals and regulars. Great atmosphere with plenty of TVs and if you’re lucky, Megan behind the bar. The food here is really good too, everything is solid. Heavy pours, solid apps, great vibe. A pickle back, beer, and some pepper Jack cheese balls will do you just right. The Dugout is hands down the best bar in Indy.
Played a gig here for the first time, and they really take good care of the musicians. Had a blast playing the stage on the patio, and the friendly crowd was very receptive and appreciative. Staff is top-notch, and the food is very good. Hope I can come back, and often.
Rated everything a four but overall five star. This place is nothing fancy. However, it is a unique dive bar that doesn’t exist that much in Indy anymore. More importantly the drink prices are affordable. Great place.
It's a nice place with outdoor seating. There was a country western band, "The Rounders", they were exceptional. To get service, you need to walk to the bar inside. There you can get drinks and order food if you like. They will give you a number and deliver the food to your table. They were quick and friendly. Silverware and condiments were on a stand just outside the bar entrance
We ordered nachos that came out quickly and were fairly large. We thought they tasted quite good.
Nice place to go for a low-key weekend evening
