  Right on the Monon Trail so you can exercise those burgers and ice cream treats off if you wish! Bubs is famous for the Big Ugly burger - which is a full one-pound burger. I was not up for that and chose the Settle For Less Ugly burger at a quarter pound. You have your choice of beef or Elk burgers. I chose Elk and found it leaner than beef with a very similar flavor. It was delicious- smash burger style with a buttered toasted bun, lettuce, tomatoes, onions,pickles and mayo (on the side). We also ordered a side of waffle fries, and they were cooked crispy, which is how I prefer them. I do not enjoy soggy, wimpy fries. As it was my friends birthday, we ordered a chocolate milk shake and a scoop of mint chocolate ice cream. High quality and delicious. Our server Tobias was very good, responsive and helpful. We enjoyed sitting out on the terrace and watching the world go by on the Monon. Parking can be difficult in this part of downtown Carmel, so it is a bonus that Bubs has its own dedicated parking lot.

  If a restaurant is struggling to provide clean and fresh food, then the restaurant should just admit they are struggling. I would recommend to expect a 20-30 minute wait plus an uncomfortable waiting arrangement outside. I am not sure who started the trend, but people sat and stood around the restaurant. Due to that, I would also recommend to avoid outside tables near the people watching and listening to your dining experience. The reasons I am giving this place a 2/5 star review was their water and lemons. I was given a water with hair under the ice. The waiter did have a quick and apologetic reaction as the hair was neither of ours. Also, container of lemons had spoiled or dehydrated lemons as if someone put them outside for hours under the hot heat. Despite all of that, the elk meat and regular hamburger meat was spectacular. The sweet potato fries and regular fries were perfect. I have no suggestions for their meat and fries. However, the toppings could’ve been better. There should be more quantity or variety of topping options. The meal was too simple for the total price at the end.

  Had the not so ugly burger. It was good and well seasoned. The Buns are good and they are soft. Sides are all separate. Fries are good. They do have a challenge but the burger is $26. If you eat it you get your picture on the wall. If you want a copy of the picture it's a dollar. I would go again. But it is very pricey! Parking is terrible. There are no vegetarian options. The kids meals are almost $10 each!

  Food: the Big Ugly Elk burger I had was pretty good. It was a new experience for me. They have a special spicy mayo dip they make, definitely worth a try. It goes great with the fries. Service: I got there and there weren't any free tables outside. However, the inside was completely empty. They still made me put my name and number down to wait for a table. 30mins later, still no call to get a table. I went back to them stood at the front until they tended to me. Finally got a table and still had to wait another 10mins until they decided to come take my order. Overall: Carmel is a really beautiful city. Very pedestrian friendly. The burger was massive and tasty. If they had more workers, I'd be giving them 5 stars. But the service just wasn't as fluid as it should be. I'd still recommend visiting for the food and city!

  This place is a lot better than I expected. The food is amazing and cooked very well. I will say this place is a must try. The Elk burger is a must try. We ordered the chili which was in itself a meal. I would definitely be coming back. I highly recommend this place.
