May 14, 2026"My son and I went to Bubs this past weekend and had a wonderful experience! The burgers were terrific and the service was amazing! Tristian was our waiter and was super attentive and friendly. Hayden, the manager, even came over to ask us how we were enjoying our dinner! To top it off, the outside patio was a perfect laid back spot to enjoy these great burgers! If you are looking for a terrific burger and amazing staff- this is your place!"

May 07, 2026"We ventured over to Bloomington on a Saturday evening to take my grandparents out for a bite to eat and found ourselves at Bubs. We were in the mood for a good burger and we definitely found it. They were seasoned perfectly and cooked just how we asked. My grandpa ordered chili for dinner and said he enjoyed it; plus it came in a bread bowl, you can't beat that! The service was on point. Our server was very sweet and attentive, along with the rest of the staff. The restaurant was clean and we liked looking at all the photos on the walls from people doing The Big Ugly. I will say it can get kind of loud in there due to the walls being stone, but we went early so we beat the dinner rush. Overall we will be back and perhaps even get ourselves a Big Ugly!"
